Chapter 57

"There is no rule for a fiancé to return his fiancée's pocket money. This money, I call it a betrothal gift, is a betrothal gift. If you feel that the one thousand taels of silver as a betrothal gift is too little, then consider it as an advance and I will wait for the rest to make a small order.

Give."

Ye Youran's attitude was very firm.

In fact, she wanted to borrow it, but Liang Youqian was beside her. If she wanted to borrow it, Liang Youqian would definitely suspect that the money was borrowed but not repaid.

So, she changed her story to betrothal gift.

However, Liang Youqian still said, "I have never heard that there is a rule for advance betrothal gifts?"

"If you haven't heard of it, it doesn't mean you don't have it." The betrothal gift has to be paid sooner or later, so she asked Wei Zijin to pay it earlier, so that she wouldn't take advantage of Wei Zijin.

Moreover, Wei Zijin was right when he said that when the seventh young master of the Zhongyong Mansion marries a wife, the betrothal gift will not be less, at least ten thousand taels of silver.

She asked Wei Zijin to give him a thousand taels of silver first, which was not too shocking.

Wei Zijin gave Liang Youqian a warning look, then looked at Ye Youran gently, "This is my cousin, Liang Youqian."

"Brother and sister, this is the first time we meet. Please sit down and my cousin will treat you to a cup of tea."

Liang Youqian pointed to the empty chair next to him, with a smile on his face that didn't deserve a beating.

If it were his previous life, Ye Youran would definitely give him a big look, then turn around and leave.

But now, she is a village girl and does not have the capital to be arrogant.

She refused coldly, "No."

Then, too lazy to talk to the ruffian, she looked at Wei Zijin and said, "Wei Zijin, thank you for your money. When my restaurant opens, I will treat you to dinner."

"Brothers and sisters, and me."

Liang Youqian laughed so hard that he even winked at Ye Youran.

Wei Zijin's face darkened, "Thank you, Miss Ye, I will definitely be there then."

"Well, I'll leave first, my fourth uncle is still waiting for me outside."

"Why don't you ask Uncle Ye to go to the pub next door for a meal?"

"No, we still have something to do."

She still had to ask the housekeeper how the inquiry was going.

If she could successfully buy the house today, she and her fourth uncle's family could move in tomorrow, which would save them having to borrow the second uncle's donkey cart to travel back and forth every day.

Ye Youran said goodbye.

After leaving the teahouse, I saw Uncle Ye talking to his little attendant.

Ye Youran walked over and said, "Fourth uncle, you are back. How are things going?"

"After asking about it, I went to knock on the neighbor on the left side of the house. According to that person, this house belongs to a businessman named Wu. Because he lost a lot of money in business, he wanted to sell the house to pay off the debt, so the asking price was higher than the market price.

The price is 10% higher.”

"How much silver?"

"Six hundred and eighty taels."

According to the market price, this house is worth five hundred and fifty taels of silver.

Including household items, plus fifty taels.

This is equivalent to an increase in price of eighty taels of silver.

"Can you take a look at the house first?" Ye Youran asked after thinking for a moment.

"You can see it. I've asked about it. Mr. Wu's shop is not far ahead. Xiaoyou, you wait here while I go find him."

"Then I'll take the trouble, Fourth Uncle, to take a trip."

Ye Dashi owed Ye Youran so much kindness and wished he could do something for Ye Youran.

Not to mention just running errands.

"Miss Ye, is the house you want to see at the east end of the town, next to Chunxiang Restaurant?" The little follower hadn't left yet and was watching the donkey cart.

Ye Youran nodded, "That's the building. Do you know the owner?"

"I don't know her, but the Major General knows her. Mr. Wu has a daughter, and he wants to give it to the Major General!"
