Chapter 6 Borrowing Money

Ma Mingfeng felt a little displeased after hearing Li Zhenli's words. Of course, he understood that the so-called combing and combed money was actually the first time the Fengchen woman was paid. Is Li Zhenli finding herself here today for her daughter's marriage or to let her daughter start to embark on that path? So Li Zhenli's statement is a great insult to herself and Xiangjun.

So Ma Mingfeng said in a deep voice: "Miss Li, please forgive me for taking the liberty. I can't obey this matter!"

Li Zhenli's face also darkened and she said slowly: "What? What does the young master mean? Isn't my daughter worth a thousand taels of silver?"

Ma Mingfeng sneered and said, "Ling Yi is more than worth a thousand taels of silver? Even if it is ten thousand taels of gold, I can't buy it. The reason why I refused was mainly because Miss Li, you said the betrothal between me and Ling Yi as a combing capital. Miss Li, you have experienced many people and events for a long time, so naturally you know what the difference between the two? Let me tell you clearly today? What I don't pay for combing capital. What I want is to let Ling Yi get rid of his family from now on and marry me like a normal person. I know that the money I need must not be this price, but I am willing to bear it no matter how much. Although I can't take it out now, I promise to get it all for you within three years!"

After Ma Mingfeng said this, there was silence around him, and no one spoke for several minutes. However, Ma Mingfeng obviously saw that Li Xiangjun's delicate body kept trembling, her eyes turned red, she forced herself to hold back tears, but her face was filled with infinite joy.

Li Zhenli's face was also unstable, and finally she smiled and said, "Young people are young people. It seems that they have really had a true love today. This is also my daughter's fortune. I am naturally extremely happy. But you also know what we do. I spent ten years to raise my daughter, teaching her to chess, calligraphy and painting, knitting and embroidery, and giving her good food and clothing. She is really trained as a biological daughter. Even those noble ladies may not be as good as her. I originally expected her to be my money-shaking.

Tree, but you have to poach it directly. Not only did my ten years of hard work in vain, but I, Meixianglou, have no capital to attract customers in the future. I don’t know if you have calculated it? Well, since my daughter met a lover, I would not stop her and said straight to the point that the five thousand taels of silver would be paid off within three years. I will let her eat and live here for three years. If you can’t take it out in three years, then she is still a member of Meixianglou, and what else should she do."

"That's it, the deal is completed." Ma Mingfeng glanced at Li Xiangjun, and saw that she nodded to him, and said firmly without any hesitation.

"Okay, then that's the matter. Let's write a contract now. Mr. Yang will ask for help in this matter." Li Zhenli brought paper and pen to Yang Wencong, and asked him to help write a contract.

Yang Wencong was actually very shocked, and at the same time he also smiled bitterly, thinking that why did his eldest nephew be so extravagant? This caused a lot of trouble for Hou Fangyu. Five thousand taels of silver is not a small amount. Even if the Hou family has a large family background, it is probably not easy to take out so much money at once. Even if it can be taken out, with Hou Fangyu's father Hou Xun's personality, if he knew that he spent 5,000 taels of silver for a prostitute, he would probably be able to beat him to death.

However, things have reached this point, and Yang Wencong has no other way, so he can only take one step at a time.

"But this may be a good thing. I originally just found a fireworks woman for Brother Chaozong, but Luan'er found him a lifelong partner. But I don't know what would happen if Shangshu Hou knew the truth? Well, as long as I find a way to instruct Brother Chaozong to keep the secret, there would be no such worry. Haha, Luan'er is reliable in doing things, much more reliable than I thought. This child will definitely achieve great things in the future and is worthy of being a disciple I taught."

Yang Wencong was no longer upset when he thought of this, so he happily wrote down two contracts and placed them in front of Ma Mingfeng and Li Xiangjun.

However, Ma Mingfeng did not sign the contract and said seriously: "A real man is a man who has a word and what he says is the best contract. Since I make a promise here today, I will definitely fulfill my promise in the future. Why do you have to add anything to it? On the other hand, if someone really refuses to fulfill his promise, how can a contract be restrained? Today Xiangjun has Miss Li here, you will testify, and I have Brother Long You here to testify, which is enough. I believe that the two of us are based on the same heart, not a contract!"

There is no way Ma Mingfeng said this. He couldn't really write down Hou Fangyu's name on the contract, right? So he could only gamble with Hou Fangyu's reputation, hoping to use Hou Fangyu's name to help him overcome this crisis.

"Okay! Since that's the case, I don't have to do this more. I also believe that the gentleman of Mr. Hou Shishi is better than a ten thousand times the contract today, but the form still needs to be left. According to the previous agreement, Mr. Gong put down 100 taels of silver today, which is considered to be the silver of Wending. You should actually know that 100 taels of silver will not be enough for three years, even if Xiang Jun's food and clothing are not enough, I am just going through the motions."

"One hundred taels of silver is indeed not much," Ma Mingfeng nodded, but he couldn't do it at all, because he had no spare money in his hand, so he looked at Yang Wencong with a embarrassed look and said with a wry smile: "Today, because I was in a hurry to leave, I didn't have silver around me. Brother Long You, I don't know if I can borrow 100 taels of silver for a while. When I have enough money in the future, I will definitely return it. Brother Long You's deep friendship will be remembered and will be rewarded in the future."

When Yang Wencong heard this, he kept complaining. Although he was demoted for corruption, he didn't have much money in his hand. If it had been too much, he would have thought of a way to recover. It would be impossible to live a careless life like he is now.

Of course, although not much, Yang Wenchao can still take out a hundred-two silver pattern, but this is almost everything on him. He was thinking of using this silver to buy a piece of jewelry for Li Zhenniang. It seems that he can't buy it now.

"Haha, there is no problem with this matter." Yang Wencong agreed very readily and immediately took out a hundred taels of silver and handed it to Ma Mingfeng's hand.

It’s not that Yang Wencong pretended to be generous, he had to borrow this silver. Only by paying the silver to Ma Mingfeng can Xiangjun be considered a matter of being settled. He has been trying to find a way to hand over Hou Fangyu, which is a very critical step and must not make any mistakes.
