"My dear sister, I'm here to bring you good news. My sister is pregnant and her husband is not around, so she wants a quiet place. Of course, I took it to heart. After leaving my sister's place, I went to find my mother without stopping. Because the business of Zizai Building is still good, my mother has no intention of transferring Zizai Building. I tried my best to persuade her, and my mother felt sorry for my sister's big belly, so she finally agreed. After my mother agreed, I was afraid that she would regret it, so I struck while the iron was hot and quickly asked for the land deed and house deed. I came to my sister without stopping for a moment to report this good news. So, my dear sister, we have to hurry up and dare not delay, so as not to let my mother regret it."
When the Sixth Miss came running over in a hurry with the house deeds and land titles, strongly demanding an immediate transaction, Qin'er's admiration for her own Miss reached an unprecedented level.
After Li Shu handed over the 1,100 taels of silver to the Sixth Miss, fearing that Li Shu would go back on her word, the Sixth Miss quickly handed over the house deeds and the land deeds to Li Shu, and also took out a non-repudiation contract that she had prepared long ago, and strongly demanded that Li Shu sign the non-repudiation contract.
The contract was in duplicate and the wife of Linhuai Marquis had already signed it. After all, Li Shu paid a premium of more than 300 taels of silver to buy Zizai Building and the barren slope behind it. The wife of Linhuai Marquis and the sixth young lady were worried that Li Shu would think things over after calming down and regret it again, so they added this contract that could not be revoked.
excellent!
That’s so thoughtful!
When Li Shu saw this irrevocable contract, her eyes curved into crescents, but she showed resistance on her face, "Ahem, dear sister, we are all family, so there is no need for this irrevocable contract, right?"
"My dear sister, we are a family and we don't have to talk about our differences. Indeed, we don't need this. But this is all for your sake. There are many people in our mansion. If anyone has objections, mother is soft-hearted. If mother is persuaded to go back on her word, or if people with ulterior motives in the family put pressure on her, it will be difficult for her to do anything. That's why my sister thought of this contract that cannot be revoked. It creates an established fact that cannot be changed. It is hard to reverse it and no one can change it. This is the best way to protect my sister. Moreover, signing such a contract document will also make it convenient for the steward to take it to the government office to change the owner of the Zizai Building and the land registration. After all, words are not enough. With this contract document, the government office can also confirm that the owner of Zizai Building has changed. My dear sister, please sign it quickly. After signing, the steward can also go to the government office to handle the procedures. Don't dare to delay. If there are many dreams at night and something goes wrong, my sister will have no way to deal with it."
Miss Six patiently advised and urged Li Shu to sign her name on the irrevocable contract as soon as possible.
"Uh, okay."
Li Shu reluctantly agreed after being urged by Miss Six.
As soon as Li Shu agreed, the Sixth Miss hurriedly took a wolf-hair brush from the pen holder and diligently ground ink for her.
After Li Shu signed, Miss Six grabbed one of the contracts in her hand quickly and accurately, as if she had found a treasure. She couldn't help but smile widely on her little face.
“Huff…Huff…”
After taking a contract in her hand, Miss Six opened her mouth and blew it without saying a word to dry the ink.
"Good sister, you can keep that one for yourself. Mo'er, quickly, hand this contract document to the chief steward of the outer courtyard, and tell him to go to the government office to handle the change procedures as quickly as possible, without any mistakes."
After drying the ink of Li Shu's signature, the Sixth Miss handed the contract document in her hand to her personal maid and told her to give it to the manager of the outer courtyard immediately, and asked the manager to go to the government office to handle the change procedures as quickly as possible.
After the work was done, Miss Six showed no intention of leaving.
Li Shu knew that she wanted the fifty taels of silver that she had promised her as a thank-you gift, but Li Shu deliberately teased her and pretended to have forgotten about the thank-you gift.
Miss Six chatted awkwardly, but after waiting for a long time, Li Shu still didn't mention the thank-you gift. Finally, she couldn't help it anymore. She blushed and coughed, and said awkwardly, "Ahem, sister, I remember you said that after the matter was done, you would give me a thank-you gift. Ahem, I don't want a thank-you gift. It's mainly because I forgot what the thank-you gift is..."
"Oh, look at my sister's memory. They say that pregnancy makes people stupid for three years. It's true. Ever since my sister got pregnant with these two little ones, her memory has been getting worse day by day. She even forgot about the thank-you gift."
Li Shu's smile was hidden by the embroidery on her hands, and she let out an "Oops" and said with an apologetic look on her face.
"Fortunately, I still have some pocket money on me..." After saying that, Li Shu casually took out a purse from her sleeve.
When she saw Li Shu taking out her purse, Sixth Miss's eyes lit up and her heart was leaping with joy, but her face showed an expression of "Oh no, no".
Li Shu opened her purse in front of Miss Six, and inside was a thick stack of silver bills worth 100 taels...
Oops, my eyes...
This thick stack of hundred-liang silver bills seemed to be shining with golden light, and Miss Six felt like her eyes were about to be blinded.
I've known for a long time that the village girl Fifth Sister is rich, but I didn't expect that she is so rich. The purse she carries with her is actually full of banknotes, at least three thousand taels... ... This is just pocket money... ...
Pocket money...
Comparing yourself with others will only make you angry!
Miss Six was so envious and jealous of Li Shu's Versailles words about pocket money that she was in the advanced stage of red-eye disease and wanted to snatch Li Shu's purse.
Li Shu rummaged through her purse for a long time before finally finding a fifty-tael note from a stack of one hundred-tael notes. She then took it out and handed it to the Sixth Miss nonchalantly.
"Oh, sister, it's really not necessary." Miss Six said no, but her body was very honest. She took the fifty taels of silver note and put it in her arms in a flash. Then she added, "Okay, since I can't convince you, I'll take it this time... Next time, don't do this no matter what, or I won't help you."
"Ah? Uh-huh..." Li Shuxiu covered her mouth with a handkerchief and nodded, her eyes curved into crescents.
"Oh, it's getting late. I'll go urge the manager of the outer courtyard to hurry to the government office to complete the formalities."
After the Sixth Miss received the bribe of fifty taels of silver, she could no longer sit still. She found an excuse and left, bouncing up and down with joy, and couldn't help humming a little tune as she walked out of the door.
"Puchi... Miss, you are so right." Qin'er couldn't help but giggle as she watched the Sixth Miss's back as she walked away, her eyes filled with admiration for her own Miss.
