"No, Jiejie, you must go to Prince Pu's Mansion tomorrow and demand it back from Prince Pu."
Situ Yongjie casts a glance at Auntie Tang, who is wailing on the floor. Although there is a trace of reluctance, he remembers that this woman sold their ancestral estate, and thus there's nothing pitiable about her. So, he responds: "Okay!"
Upon hearing this, Auntie Tang feels as if struck by a bolt from the blue. Isn't this tantamount to driving her to the brink of death?
Indeed, her brother has always been but a spoilt playboy who flits between the brothels of the Capital every day, knowing only pleasure, oblivious to handling Prince Pu's Mansion.
Over the years, Prince Pu's Mansion has been sustained by external business to cover the household expenses.
Add to that, this profligate squanders money like water, leaving Prince Pu's Mansion with almost nothing to spare, with most of the wealth frittered away by this only son.
