This is too little, five hundred taels is not enough at all.

Zhu Changxi was reluctant to borrow money.

Lin Dadao: "I'll tell you the truth, now that there is no silver, this silver ticket is equivalent to waste paper." It's too troublesome for people to go to the north to exchange silver with silver tickets. ”

Xiao Lingzi also followed: "Yes, otherwise don't say 20,000 taels, it's 50,000 taels, and my father is willing to borrow it." ”

Lord Lin glared at his daughter.

Xiao Lingzi kept silent.

Lord Lin turned around and said, "So I said, the Gu family and the Zhu family are so good to me, don't say it's borrowing money." Just let me send some money, that's how it should be. It's just that we can't help it, and our family has no money. There is no gold. The pawn tickets that the gold bars were exchanged for are now useless. Our economy here is sluggish, and the merchants are not coming. ”

That's what Lord Lin said.

Gu Zizhong also understood and wanted to leave.

Zhu Changxi didn't want to do it in his heart, he just listened to his father's words and followed Zi Chonglai to borrow money.

So in his opinion, Zizhong is the one who mainly opens his mouth, so he just follows Zizhong.

It is also unprecedented to let him say so many things at the dinner table.

Gu Zizhong felt uncomfortable and worried.

Zhu Changxi waved his hand: "Uncle, don't worry, let's drink." ”

Lord Lin didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly followed to accompany the wine.

The two of them drank it.

Lin Dadao: "Shizi, there is something in your family, we don't want to ask." We can't figure it out for you. We also want to lend you money, just ...... Five hundred taels, if you are not too little, take it and use it first. How about I get the money and send it to you at once?"

That's a heartwarming thing to say.

Zhu Changxi pursed his red lips: "Trouble uncle." ”

Lin Dadao: "It's all as it should be, what are you talking about." ”

Gu Zi was worried again, and muttered in his heart: "Give Zhu Liuhong a silver ticket, okay?"

They were eating here, when they heard the servant from outside say, "Master, there is a guest outside." Mrs. Gu came. ”

Mother is here?

Gu Zizhong's eyes suddenly lit up.

She suddenly had something to rely on in her heart.

Zhu Changxi also felt that he had something to rely on, and his originally low mood suddenly rose again.

Lord Lin panicked.

The situation is a little wrong, even if the descendants of the people come, why did the people in charge follow one after another?

However, Lord Lin didn't dare to slack off, so he hurriedly put down the dishes and chopsticks in his hand, got up, and asked the servant to invite the guests in, and he himself explained to Zhu Changxi and Gu Zizhong: "Mrs. Gu is here, I have to go to greet you." Forgive me for not being able to accompany me. ”

He was polite, Gu Zizhong and Zhu Changxi both had to be polite.

After all, Lord Lin is the elder of the two of them, so the two of them still have to give enough face and have enough respect for others: "My lord, please." ”

Gu Zizhong also said to Xiao Lingzi: "Lord Lingzun is hospitable, and he must also be a good person among the people of ten miles and eight towns. ”

Xiao Lingzi was embarrassed: "Cough, good people can't talk about it, my father is like this." ”

The host family was shy.

Gu Zizhong's kind words also stopped, and he didn't continue to discuss, but got up, called Brother Shangzishan, and the two of them went out to greet them together.

Gu's mother has also been in the carriage for a day, running around and working hard all the way, and she has just arrived at the Lin Mansion, and she is still a little uncomfortable.

Lord Lin personally went to the door to greet him: "Mrs. Gu came from afar, but Lin couldn't greet her." Please forgive Mrs. Gu. ”

Gu's mother listened to the kind words of others, and her tired heart was somewhat comforted.

She got out of the carriage and was immediately surrounded by the two maids of the Lin family.

The two of them, one on the left and one on the right, helped Mrs. Gu and entered the door of the Lin family.

Gu Wangye had done Lord Lin a great favor, so no matter what, Lord Lin had to be polite to the people of the Gu family.

A group of people surrounded Mrs. Gu and went into the room.

There is also a dining table in front of the hall.

Gu Zizhong and Zhu Changxi went late, and when Gu's mother entered the door of the Lin family and walked in the corridor for a while, they met Gu Zizhong and Zhu Changxi.

Gu Zizhong took a face-to-face with his mother, and the tears of this emotion came out immediately.

She looked at her mother's haggard face, went up and hugged her mother, and told the maids to retreat.

Master Lin waved his hand and told them to leave quickly.

As soon as Gu Zizhong went up to help, Zhu Changxi also went over immediately, and Gu Zizhong and Gu Zizhong supported Gu's mother left and right.

Gu's mother laughed at herself: "My body is still not good in the end, I only travel for one day, and my heart is a little unbearable." ”

Gu Zizhong said softly: "Mother, you go slowly." ”

Lord Lin asked the servant to hurry up and prepare another bowl of rice.

Lord Lin didn't deliberately prepare just now, because he was afraid that he wouldn't figure things out in advance.

Now he is sure that Gu's mother is so haggard, and he hasn't eaten yet.

So this is also an opportunity for him to please others.

Lord Lin took them to the front of the hall, and took the initiative to vacate the place of the master's house for Mrs. Gu.

Gu Mu and he humbled for a moment.

The two of them couldn't give in.

Xiao Lingzi said: "Aunt Gu, my father has always respected the Gu family, and the Gu family has also been very kind to us. So now we give you the place, and that's as it should be. You're tired, don't you shirk?"

Looking at Xiao Lingzi's lovely face, Gu's mother was also shy, and she was embarrassed to push back, so she sat in the right position.

The others moved back one place in turn.

Lord Lin took the initiative to take a hot soup for Mrs. Gu and brought over the rice.

Gu's mother was embarrassed to take the initiative.

Lord Lin took the initiative to take a bite of the dish.

Gu's mother moved her chopsticks at this time.

A few people ate for a while.

Lord Lin saw that the chopsticks in Mrs. Gu's hand also stopped, and the whole person began to close his eyes and rest.

Only then did he dare to speak: "Mrs. Gu, why are you here too? Could it be that you are also like the children, you came to Lin to do that, right?"

He got straight to the point, and Gu's mother couldn't shirk it.

Gu Mu nodded, but her appearance was very serious.

It's a little too serious, giving people the feeling that she is hiding the panic in her heart.

Gu Zizhong really sweated for her mother.

This kind of borrowing money from others, my mother has never done much at all.

They take care of their family and have a big business, but now they want to borrow 20,000 taels of silver from others.

This kind of thing rests on Gu's mother, and she is a little uncomfortable.

Gu Zizhong approached Xiao Lingzi, as if she was talking to Xiao Lingzi, in fact, she deliberately amplified her voice and said, "Sister Lingzi, we came here this time, and we also plan to come to discuss with the people of the Lin family, and when Brother Zishan and I are full moon, we will invite you to come over and drink full moon wine." ”

Zhu Changxi was a little confused.

Neither of them cooked rice in this raw rice, is it too early to say this?
