Bab 674: Chapter 674: Called off the Engagement_1

Lady Li didn't wait for Su Xuan to ask and explained the use for the Silver Coin, "We are thinking of contributing more, as Yu Lu's engagement requires accumulating more dowries, and Mingyun also needs to save up for the betrothal gifts. Your elder brother and I aren't very capable, and opportunities like this are rare, so that's why we borrowed Silver. Your brother said we would pay interest; even among close brothers, accounts must be clear, and paying interest is a must."

Su Xuan had already gestured for the old servant to bring the silver note, "Sister-in-law, here are two thousand taels. As for the interest, give it based on the lowest rate, and you can pay me whenever you have it."

Su Xuan had no intention of getting involved in the business of buying shops; she didn't like the long wait.

Lady Li happily took the Silver, "I'll bring over the IOU later; you know my handwriting isn't pretty."

Su Xuan blushed—her handwriting wasn't pretty either.
