Capítulo 2047: Chapter 2044: eting
Now the Luo family only resides in a nearby courtyard, surrounded by rchants, causing a significant disparity that leaves the household atmosphere very gloomy.
The people of the Luo family were just dissatisfied because Grand Tutor Deng sent soone to forcefully purchase their shop at a low price, and now, unexpectedly, the Chu family also wants to buy it, having sent soone to negotiate.
Even though they are extrely displeased with Chu Heng, the people of the Luo family dare not offend the Chu family.
They can only grudgingly send soone over to wait first.
When Su i ca in, Steward Luo quickly stood up and greeted her.
Su i smiled warmly, “No need for formalities, Steward Luo.”
She stepped forward, sat down, ordered a pot of good tea, and a few plates of snacks.
Taking advantage of the ti while the food was being served, she spoke directly, “Steward Luo, I assu that you and the household already know the reason for my visit today.”
“I won’t beat around the bush. My lady is willing to offer the original price to buy your shop, with the transaction and paynt completed on the spot. How about it?”
Steward Luo looked troubled, “Miss Su i, you are from Madam Chu’s side, so you surely understand. Just this morning, Grand Tutor Deng sent soone to buy the shop as well, and now that it’s already sold, it’s really not possible to sell it to your residence.”
Su i still wore a smile, exuding authority without anger, “Oh? Is that so? How co I heard that the Deng household hasn’t even paid the silver, nor handled the contract? So it can’t be considered sold yet, right?”
“Or perhaps, your residence is unwilling to sell to my lady? Is it because the price my lady offered is too low, or for so other reason? We can discuss this slowly, there’s no rush. If there’s any misunderstanding, it’s better to talk it out in advance.”
Steward Luo already knew that once the Chu family sent soone, they wouldn’t give up easily. Feeling distressed, he could only express his dilemma, “Miss Su i, you can understand our Luo family’s predicant. Even though the house deed hasn’t been exchanged yet, we’ve already agreed with Grand Tutor Deng. If we suddenly change our decision, wouldn’t we be offending soone? Please forgive my incompetence.”
“Steward Luo, this business can be discussed slowly. You can go back and discuss with your lady, the price difference between the original price and the low price is dozens of taels. No matter when, dozens of taels is not a small amount for your residence, right?”
“In fact, speaking of it, I heard about your residence’s situation and feel so sympathy. After all, the Eldest Son of the Deng Family is notoriously domineering. If your family’s masters and young masters hadn’t been involved with him, they wouldn’t be in such bad luck. In this capital, no matter when, once soone has sothing on you, it feels like a sword dangling overhead, not knowing when it might fall. As for who might make it fall, who could tell?”
“I wonder if your lady has considered the future for the Luo family.”
Steward Luo’s complexion changed again and again, filled with shock and fear.
Although he wasn’t too clear on the matters of his lady and masters, he knew deep down that the current troubles of the residence were due to entanglents with Grand Tutor Deng’s household.
Su i didn’t mind Steward Luo’s despondent appearance; she smiled, stood up, and left.
As soon as Su i left,
Steward Luo couldn’t care about anything else, hurrying back to the residence.
Upon returning to the residence,
He encountered the Second Master’s young master returning from outside.
This young master is currently the only one in the residence with a scholarly title. Previously low-key, he has now beco a pillar of support.
“Steward Luo, in such a hurry, what happened?” Young Master Luo called out to Steward Luo.
Steward Luo didn’t dare to hide anything and recounted everything Su i had just said.
