After the noble lady was reborn, the whole mansion begged her for forgiveness

When Mrs. Zhang saw that Guihua couldn't come up with the bride price, a smug smile appeared on her face again.

"Bitch, if you can't afford the bride price, just stay in the Zhang family and don't dream of anything else."

Boss Zhang stood with his hands hanging down and did not press his fingerprints again.

"Mrs. Zhang, you are being unreasonable!" Li Zheng Zhang shouted, trying to break the stalemate. "The betrothal money was given to the woman before the marriage. How can you ask for it back after the divorce? Moreover, Guihua has been married to the Zhang family for a year and has worked hard day and night without any complaints. How can you, the Zhang family, have the face to ask for the betrothal money back?"

Seeing that Zhang Lizheng was backing her up, Mrs. Zhang started to throw a tantrum: "I don't care! I just want the betrothal money! If she doesn't get the money, she can't leave!"

Qin Suling watched all this and had a plan in mind. She stepped forward and said to Mrs. Zhang, "Mrs. Zhang, since you are so stubborn, I will give Guihua an idea. Guihua, are you willing?"

Guihua looked up at Qin Suling, a glimmer of hope flashed in her eyes: "Madam, I do."

Qin Suling nodded: "Okay, then Guihua will use this year's hard work as a price to sever ties with the Zhang family, and from now on, we owe each other nothing. If you Zhang family dare to pester us again, I will sue the government on behalf of Guihua and let the county magistrate make the decision!"

When Mrs. Zhang heard that she had to file a complaint with the government, she immediately panicked, because she knew that the government would not stand on her side.

She glanced at Guihua and saw that she looked determined. She knew there was no point in continuing the fuss, so she had to give up.

Then, her tone softened.

"No, we need the silver. We are not unreasonable people... Pay the silver and we can leave!"

Qin Suling couldn't bear it anymore.

"Mrs. Zhang, how much dowry did the Guihua family receive from you? I will pay it back to you on their behalf." Qin Suling asked directly.

When Mrs. Zhang heard this, she immediately opened her mouth and said, "Five taels of silver!"

Guihua frowned and retorted: "My parents only accepted one or two taels of silver as a betrothal gift from you."

The onlookers also expressed their doubts. Everyone knew the financial situation of Mrs. Zhang's family, and it was impossible for them to give five taels of silver.

Aunt Wang next door sneered, "Mrs. Zhang, stop talking nonsense. How could your family possibly have five taels of silver as a betrothal gift?"

After being exposed, Mrs. Zhang was furious and said, "I said five taels of silver, and that means five taels of silver! If you can't come up with five taels of silver today, no one will have a good life!"

Qin Suling turned to Jinxiu: "Jinxiu, give her money."

Jinxiu took out five taels of silver and handed it to Zhang Lizheng as a witness: "Zhang Lizheng, please be a witness. Mrs. Zhang took the five taels of silver, and Zhang Laoda pressed his handprint. This divorce will take effect immediately. From now on, Guihua will have nothing to do with the Zhang family."

Zhang Lizheng nodded in agreement and asked Zhang Lao Da to put his fingerprint on the divorce agreement.

Mrs. Zhang took the silver and smiled happily, thinking that five taels of silver was enough for her to find a wife for her eldest and second sons.

She grinned and did not forget to mock Guihua: "I think this lady is helping you so much because she wants to take you back to her master to be his concubine! The officials like you for your appearance. When you become rich, don't forget me, an old woman!"

Guihua ignored Mrs. Zhang's sarcasm and remained calm.

Qin Suling could no longer hold back, so he took the divorce letter and took Yu Niang to the carriage, and said to Guihua, "I'm lending you these five taels of silver, so you don't have to pay it back in a hurry. We'll go first, and you can follow."

Guihua felt a little nervous when she saw Qin Suling taking her into the carriage.

I have no relationship with her, but she is helping me like this. She doesn't really want me to be her concubine, does she?

Qin Suling saw what Guihua was thinking and said with a smile: "Guihua, don't be afraid. You don't need to write an IOU. If you have money in the future, just help more women in need."

When Guihua heard this, her almond-shaped eyes were filled with tears again.

Although she got the divorce certificate, her future was bleak.

In this world, which good family is willing to accept a divorced woman?

"Miss, let me follow you!" Guihua said, and was about to kneel down and kowtow to Qin Suling.

"I can wash clothes and cook. You can ask me to do anything. I don't want wages, just give me a meal."

Qin Suling also felt that Guihua's life might not be easy after returning to her parents' home.

But the Qin Mansion has its own rules.

If Guihua wants to go back to the Lin Mansion with her, she has to sign a contract to sell herself.

By then, Guihua would be transformed from a good citizen to a slave.

But Osmanthus doesn't care about this.

She had endured the hard days in the Zhang family, so being a good citizen or a slave was just a matter of face.

She looked at Lin Qin Su Ling and felt inexplicably at peace.

Seeing that Guihua didn't care about her status as a servant, Qin Suling agreed.

Take her to Nanping Village first. After everything is done and she is settled in the Qin Mansion, we will go to the government office to change her household registration.

"All the maids who follow me must change their names according to the rules of our Qin Mansion. How about I change your name to Jinlan?"

Osmanthus nodded and gladly accepted the new name.

She knew that the name represented a new beginning and hope.

"Miss Qin, Guihua will never forget your great kindness. I will find a way to repay you the five taels of silver." Guihua looked at Qin Suling gratefully with a firm tone.

Qin Suling shook her head gently and said gently: "Guihua, you should settle yourself first. Consider this five taels of silver as a loan from me. You don't have to return it right away. But you must remember that the most important thing for a person to live is to have dignity and backbone. Divorce does not mean that you are inferior to others. You must live strong and live your own wonderful life."

"Miss, Guihua will always remember your teachings." Tears glistened in Guihua's eyes and her voice was choked.

Qin Suling smiled and patted Guihua's shoulder, then got on the carriage.

The carriage started slowly and drove away from this place of trouble.

"Jinxiu, let's go." Qin Suling said to the maid outside the car.

The carriage went farther and farther away, leaving behind Mrs. Zhang's smug yet somewhat disdainful face.

Jinxiu was still muttering indignantly: "That Aunt Zhang is really abominable. Miss, you gave her five taels of silver for nothing."

Guihua stood aside, looking a little embarrassed, not knowing how to interrupt.

Qin Suling patted the back of Jinxiu's hand and said softly, "Okay, don't be angry. I have my own plans."

She really felt that the five taels of silver should not be given to Mrs. Zhang so easily.

Although five taels of silver was nothing to her, she couldn't just let it go so easily to someone like Mrs. Zhang.

So she called a servant and whispered to him, "Go back to Zhang's house quietly and find a way to steal the five taels of silver back."

"Steal, steal it back?" Jinxiu widened her eyes in surprise.

Qin Suling smiled faintly: "To deal with such shameless people, we have to use some special methods."
