Chapter 132: Borrowing Money
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
She might not have it.
If he could not get it from her, he could be a bit more thick-skinned and look for Second Young Miss Qin.
Second Young Miss Qin should be rich. Or rather, she had a way to get money and would help him keep it a secret.
After all, the two of them had a common secret that night.
As Luo Qingzhou pondered over it, he soon returned to the Qin residence through the back door.
As soon as he entered the residence, he took off his mask.
When he arrived in front of the Ling Chan Moon Palace, he was still a little hesitant.
To be honest, people in this era were still very thin-skinned, especially when it came to borrowing money from women.
However, when he thought of the importance of the dagger, he mustered his courage and knocked on the door.
After a while, the courtyard door creaked open.
“Miss Bai Ling, I…”
Luo Qingzhou was afraid that he would hesitate again, so he wanted to say it as soon as the door opened. However, just as he said a few words, he suddenly realized that it was not Bai Ling who opened the door, but… Xia Chan.
The girl in a light green dress stood inside. When she opened the door, she held her sword with both arms and looked at him coldly.
Luo Qingzhou could only bite the bullet and say, “Miss Xia Chan, I’m looking for Miss Bai Ling. Is she here?”
Xia Chan looked at him coldly. She did not answer or move.
Luo Qingzhou wanted to go in, but seeing that she was blocking him, he did not dare to push past her, so he could only say, “I have something to discuss with Miss Bai Ling. Can you call her over?” Xia Chan finally spoke. She said coldly, “Speak.”
Luo Qingzhou stood there speechlessly.
Should he talk about borrowing money?
“But I can’t tell you that, ” he thought.
It was fine if he embarrassed himself in front of Bai Ling, but how could he embarrass himself in front of her?
Luo Qingzhou could only cup his hands and say, “If Miss Bai Ling isn’t around, then forget it. Actually, it’s nothing serious. I’ll take my leave.”
With that, he turned around and left.
It seemed that he could only borrow money from Second Young Miss.
Hmm?
A murderous aura suddenly came from behind him.
He stopped and turned to look.
There was nothing behind him, and the door was empty. The cold girl holding the sword was nowhere to be seen.
He muttered confusedly to himself and did not think too much about it. He turned around and was about to continue walking forward when he suddenly realized that there was a figure in front of him. He almost bumped into her bulging…
He looked up.
She was dressed in a light green dress and had a cold look on her pretty face. She held a sword in her arms and looked at him coldly.
Luo Qingzhou looked at the cold girl who had silently appeared in front of him like a ghost. The corners of his mouth could not help but twitch.
“Well… ‘t
Fine.
He would just tell her.
In any case, even if he only told Bai Ling, Bai Ling might tell her too.
He sighed and said with a slightly reddish face, “I’m actually looking for Miss Bai Ling… to borrow some money. I want to buy some more expensive books and..
Before he could finish speaking, the girl in front of him suddenly left quickly and entered the courtyard.
Did she go in to call Bai Ling?
Luo Qingzhou looked at the door and stood there waiting.
After a while.
Bai Ling did not come out. Xia Chan came out with a cold expression.
With a bulging pouch in her hand, she walked over to him and handed it to him.
Luo Qingzhou was stunned for a moment. He took it, untied the rope at the mouth of the bag, and looked inside. It was actually filled with… broken silver.
The silver was all broken.
He weighed it in his hand. It amounted to a total of 30 taels.
Luo Qingzhou stood there speechlessly.
The girl looked at the expression on his face and frowned slightly. She lowered her head again and took out the last piece of silver from the pocket of her clothes. She gently placed it into the small bag that he was holding. Then, she turned her face away and looked elsewhere. “Enough?”
Luo Qingzhou was silent for a moment. He lowered his head and looked at the small piece of silver that she had placed in the bag. He was stunned momentarily before raising his head and saying, “Okay, that’s enough. Thank you, Miss Xia Chan. In a few days, I will earn some money and..
Before he could finish speaking, the girl had already turned around and left.
Squeak.
The courtyard door closed.
Luo Qingzhou stood rooted to the ground for a while before putting away the silver and walking toward Second Young Miss Qin’s residence. It turned out that the cold Miss Xia Chan was also warm-hearted.
However…
Judging from the situation, he could not get a hold of Bai Ling.
In that case, he could only look for Second Young Miss Qin.
After entering the courtyard, Zhu’er led him to the study.
After Qin Weimo woke up from her afternoon nap, she started reading in the study.
The afternoon sun could not reach the house. There was still some wind outside, so the windows were tightly closed.
There was a stove in the room, and it was very warm.
“Sir is here, Miss.”
Qiu’er stood at the door of the study. When she saw Luo Qingzhou, she immediately reported to the girl in the study.
Qin Weimo was a little surprised. She put down her book and stood up.
Luo Qingzhou took off his shoes and stepped on the soft carpet to enter the house.
He heard the door close behind him.
“Brother-in-law…”
Second Young Miss was about to speak when Luo Qingzhou went straight to the point. “Second Young Miss, I’m here to borrow money from you. Do you have it here?”
The girl was slightly stunned and did not react for a moment.
After a few breaths, she reacted and nodded. “Yes, how much do you want, Brother-in-law?”
Luo Qingzhou looked embarrassed and said in a low voice, “80 gold coins…”
“Zhu’er.”
The girl immediately called out.
The door opened.
Zhu’er answered at the door, “Miss.”
Qin Weimo said gently, “Go to the accounting room and withdraw 200 gold coins. Write my name. If the accounting room is unwilling, go to Steward Zhou and say that I want it. If my father is around, you can look for him. Just say that I want to use it. Don’t say anything else.”
Zhu’er agreed and left in a hurry..
