Chapter 257: Rummage

Cui Shi said: "Your second brother is not suffering from a serious illness, and there is no need for someone to guard him all day." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" then said his purpose, and said: "Your father and grandmother have been eating, drinking, and enjoying themselves outside these days, and they have given a lot of silver on credit. ”

Zhu Hong let out an "oh", looked like he didn't take it to heart, and asked casually, "How much credit?"

Cui Shi said: "Two or three thousand taels of silver." ”

Zhu Hong looked frightened, and even the tea bowl in his hand fell down at this time, and he suddenly got up from the chair and asked, "Why are there so many?"

Cui Shi didn't care about this, but said: "But I have already helped pay back this silver, but this silver ......" Cui Shi said these words with a very simple meaning, that is, the silver she helped Master Zhu and Mrs. Zhu repay the debt to her quickly.

Cui's wouldn't really believe that Zhu Hong would earn a salary of dozens of taels of silver every month, and she even insisted that Ruyifang was his property. His father and his grandmother owed debts, and she didn't believe that he, a son and a grandson, would really care.

After listening to what Cui Shi said, Zhu Hong seemed to be relieved, and said: "Fortunately, otherwise I would not be able to pay back if I owe so much silver." As he spoke, he said "Huh" again, and asked strangely, "Didn't Mother say that you don't have any silver? Why can you still take out these two or three thousand taels of silver at this time?" ”

Cui Shi suddenly sighed when he heard this, and he shouted in his heart. She was so concerned with getting her money back that she forgot to hide her money.

Cui Shi was about to say a few words to bluff the past, but he heard Zhu Hong speak before her: "But this is a good thing, mother has silver, and we don't have to live so poorly." We are a family, and we are in the midst of tribulations, so my mother will not distinguish between you and me in silver. ”

Cui's felt bad when he heard it, could it be that he wanted to repay the debt and swallow her silver. Of course, Cui's was unwilling, and hurriedly said: "Honglang doesn't know, I really don't have any silver in my hand, these two or three thousand taels of silver I borrowed from Cui's family with great difficulty, and I said that I would pay it back." ”

Zhu Hong listened to the "oh" sound, and said: "Since I bought this house, I don't have any silver on my body, and the surplus silver is also given to my mother as a family, I really can't take out so much silver." However, the Cui family and our Zhu family are in-laws, and they have always been kind, and seeing that we are so depressed now, we must not be in a hurry to urge us to return the silver. ”

Cui Shi was a little annoyed, this is really going to be Laipi? This kid also read the sage book when he was a child, when did he become so thick-skinned.

Cui Shi endured his anger and continued to squeeze out a smile and said: "When I borrowed the silver, I said that I would pay back the silver in a few days, and if I didn't pay it back when the deadline came, Honglang wouldn't let me be so difficult in Cui's family." ”

Zhu Hong said: "This is also a matter of no choice, who made our Zhu family poor now." Mother went back to Cui's house to talk more, let the Cui family have more time, and when I earn money, I will definitely return it to them. After a pause, he said: "If they must urge us to return the ......" He looked the house up and down, sighed, and said: "Then the son can only sell this house to pay off some silver to pay off the debt, and then the mother, second brother, father and grandmother are afraid that they will become homeless again, and they will have to trouble their relatives again." I had a falling out with my uncle's house last time, I can't go to the Jiang family if I think about it, my grandmother's maiden house is not in the capital, I want to think about it, we can still count on the Cui family, a relative. When I sell the house, we can only go to the Cui family, hoping that the Cui family will not drive us out like the Jiang family. ”

Cui: "......"

Cui's understood that she would not get her money back. Otherwise, he might really sell this house, and when the time comes, he will throw them into Cui's house, and he will be free outside.

Even for her own purposes, she had to let Zhu Hong live with them, so she had a chance to do it, so this house must not be sold.

Cui Shi squeezed out an extremely unnatural smile and said, "How can this house be sold, I will go back to Cui's house to beg them for the silver." ”

When Cui Shi said this, his eyes suddenly lit up, as if he remembered something, and he smiled very gently: "Honglang, you must be very busy in managing such a big industry as Ruyifang, why don't you let Rong'er help you, you can earn some silver and help the family by the way." ”

Zhu Hong said with a smile: "Okay, I'm afraid that the second brother has been pampered since he was a child, and he won't be able to endure hardship." ”

Cui Shi was a little surprised to hear that he was so refreshing, and she thought it would take a lot of effort. But seeing that he agreed, he was afraid that he would regret it again, so he hurriedly said: "No, no, he should hone his life if he is such a big person, otherwise how will he live in the future." ”

Zhu Hong said: "Okay, when he recovers, I'll arrange a position for him in Ruyifang." ”

Cui Shi hurriedly smiled: "Okay, seeing Honglang take care of my younger brother so much, then I am also relieved." ”

After Zhu Hong finished speaking, he didn't say more, and then picked up an account book from the desk to read, and after a while, he saw that Cui Shi was still standing next to him, but his eyes kept glancing at the account book in his hand, so he turned his head again and asked, "Mother has anything else to do? If there is nothing to do, please go back first, I want to work." ”

Cui Shi said "oh" and said, "You're busy, you're busy." After a pause, he looked at the things placed on all sides of the study, and his eyes were very reluctant to turn around and walk out of the door of the study.

As soon as Cui left, Zhu Hong closed the account book in his hand and threw it back on the table. And at this moment, Ah Song, who originally said that he was going out of the house to help Zhu Rong ask for a doctor, followed him into the study, and glanced back at Cui Shi who was walking away as he came in. Then he walked to Zhu Hong's side a little sneakily and said to him: "This woman has been observing and wandering outside the child's study for several days, and I didn't let her do it a few days ago, but today I deliberately pretended to be sent away by her to give her a chance, and she really couldn't bear to run into the childe's study." ”

Ah Bai on the side smiled and said, "If you want to come in, will you let her in, see if you are still preventing her from coming in." ”

Ah Song raised his eyebrows and said, "That's not good, as soon as she came over, she let her come in, that seems how mysterious this study is, she shouldn't suspect that we deliberately let her in, and she should be like a play." ”

Zhu Hong didn't pay attention to the jokes of the two little guys, but asked directly: "Where did she turn over?"

Ah Song was very disappointed and said: "This woman is really not enough to see, she rummaged through the desks and bookshelves in the study for a long time, and she didn't find out the secret grid after looking for this half a day." Think about it, and know how important things can be placed in these obvious places. ”

Zhu Hong said: "Give her more hints next time, so that she can find the secret place." ”

Ah Song immediately smiled and said, "Understood, Childe." I'm going to do it so naturally that she'll think she's stumbling at it. ”

Zhu Hong nodded and didn't say anything more.
