Chapter 998 Auntie Tang is About to Have Bad Luck
Seeing her family about to sleep on the streets, Auntie Tang hid this from Situ Yongjie and sold several shops outside, using the silver to help her family through the crisis and preserve Prince Pu’s Mansion.
She originally thought that this matter was done without the ghosts and gods knowing.
The Old Madam and Situ Yongjie never interfered with the General’s Mansion business. That’s why Auntie Tang dared to handle the properties privately.
Who knew, Xuexue, who had been dead for more than a dozen years, actually came back, disrupting all peace. As the Lady of the General’s Mansion, not only did she fall to a Concubine, but she also lost control over the household affairs to Xuexue.
Now, Xuexue even exposed her for selling off the General’s Mansion’s properties. Auntie Tang’s heart filled with hatred towards Xuexue, cursing her for being meddlesome and digging up old accounts unnecessarily.
Upon hearing this, the Old Madam slammed the table in anger: "What business does our General’s Mansion have with Prince Pu’s Mansion? They have their own properties too, why didn’t they sell theirs?"
It’s common knowledge that Prince Pu’s Mansion has properties in the Capital, including the most famous brothel in Changan City, where Prince Pu is the not-so-secret owner.
"If they sell the brothel, they will have no means to make a living, wouldn’t that drive them to despair? They raised me, I truly can’t just sit idly by."
