Chapter Eighty-Six: Gifts and Gifts

Zhou's mother hugged Dong Ruyi, like a family affair, and said in Dong Ruyi's ear: "The tenth master owes 100,000 taels of silver outside, thinking that he is afraid that the second master will be punished, so he relied on the second lady's momentum to grab our heads." It's just that 100,000 taels is not a small amount, yesterday Master Chen also took 60,000 taels of silver from the Dong family, and the slave was worried that the second master would hit us with his idea in order to repay this silver. ”

Dong Ruyi didn't reply, she was too shocked, this Dong Wenyi was really impatient, and dared to owe a foreign debt of 100,000 taels of silver at this juncture, isn't this adding a stumbling block to Dong Shengxing.

Dong Ruyi turned around, looked at Zhou's mother and smiled.

"Mom spoke carefully to me and listened. She really can't help but be happy, this time Dong Shengxing's promotion is really hopeless.

Mother Zhou also laughed when she saw Dong Ruyi's slightly meaningful smile.

"You, that is, you, can still laugh at this juncture. ”

Mother Zhou whispered: "On the day we went to Muzhai before, the tenth master was also there, I think he didn't recognize the young lady in men's clothes, so when we went back to Dong's house, Dong Fu would show that disgusting look." The slave maid had already asked Wang Shi to confirm that the tenth master had lost 20,000 taels of silver in Muzhai that day. And on the day we came back, Dong Fu also asked the porter who we were?"

Dong Ruyi said: "I'll just say, how can he know what the Dong family doesn't know, but this is only 20,000 taels, and the remaining 80,000?"

Zhou's mother said: "I heard that the tenth master owes him 40,000 taels of silver to his pig friends and dog friends, as for why he owes it, the slave maid doesn't know it yet." The other 40,000 taels of silver are owed to Zuixianglou, the details are not very clear, my father-in-law said that maybe the tenth master was jumped by the immortals. ”

Mother Zhou's eyes flickered a little when she said this, she really couldn't say in front of the young lady that the tenth master would run to drink flower wine in the morning, and then forced the girl who had not opened the bag, and was asked for 40,000 taels of silver by the lion.

Dong Ruyi didn't even need to ask, he knew that there was a problem with Zuixianglou. It's just that Zhou's mother doesn't want to say it, and she doesn't need to ask.

Dong Ruyi said: "Wang Shike went back?"

Zhou's mother said: "The slave asked him to wait in the second gate." ”

Dong Ruyi said: "Take pen and ink and ask him to send me a few letters." ”

Mother Zhou put down Dong Ruyi and said, "The slave will come when she goes." ”

Dong Ruyi smiled and nodded: "Uncle Ten caught us off guard, and we also have to give him a big gift in return." ”

Mother Zhou listened to Dong Ruyi's words, looked at her smile with deep meaning, and said in her heart: "Tenth Master, ask for more blessings." ”

Zhou's mother took a pen, ink, paper, and inkstone and spread it on the kang in the outhouse.

Dong Ruyi wrote three letters.

By the time Xiangju and Xianglan came back, Zhou's mother had already received the letter.

Mother Zhou said: "Good day, Xiangju, you serve the young lady to eat some snacks in this outhouse, and take her to the yard for a walk after eating." Xianglan, you go to Mother Xu's place, you listen, now our young lady lives in the west wing of Yixin Courtyard, there are two rooms in the west wing, one is the young lady's bedroom, and the other is for the young lady to put things to play. There are two transept rooms that were originally empty, one for the two of you, and one for me. But Miss also needs a room for the slaves to talk back and do errands, you ask Mother Xu to see if you can move an empty room for Miss to use first. ”

Xianglan said: "The slave and maid will go over." ”

Zhou's mother said, "Can you remember?"

Xianglan said: "Remember, the slave will go back when she goes." ”

Zhou's mother glanced at Dong Ruyi, who was eating snacks, and then left the house.

She trotted all the way to the corner of the second gate, where Wang Shi was squatting on the ground, drawing circles on the ground with a stone in his hand.

Zhou's mother said, "Have you waited for a long time?"

She said as she stepped forward to help Wang Shi up.

Wang Shi threw away the stone in his hand and grinned: "Soon, soon, hehe, I am willing to do something for you." ”

Zhou's mother took out a handkerchief from her arms and said, "Wipe your hands, how big is it." ”

Wang Shi took the handkerchief, did not wipe his hands, and put it directly into his arms, and wiped the sweat towel on his waist with his two hands.

Zhou's mother was helpless, took out three letters and said: "This one is for the Chen family, you send it first; the second one is sent to Muzhai, don't show up, find a little beggar, let him send it over, as for whether they look at it or not, let them follow them; this third letter is sent to Zuixianglou, just find someone to send it." You can keep the rest of the silver, and just use how much you can go home and let our mother write it down. ”

Wang Shi put the letter of the Chen family in his arms, put the other two in his sleeve and said, "Then I'll go back." ”

Zhou's mother said: "Slow down on the road." ”

Wang Shi looked around, and when he saw that there was no one, he quickly stepped forward and took a bite on Zhou's mother's face, and then ran away.

Zhou's mother reacted, Wang Shi had already run out of the second door.

Zhou's mother blushed, covered her face and said, "Where did you learn this?" ”

Wang Shimei drove the cart to the city.

He went to Chen's house first.

The first letter was written to Chen Jingzhi, which meant that she wanted to buy some belongings, and the matter had been entrusted to Wang Shi's family.

It's just that the silver in her hand is not easy to use, so she wants to directly use the 60,000 taels of silver. As for her father, just ask Senior Brother Xiao to bring 5,000 taels of silver to Beijing.

And the 60,000 taels of silver here, Wang Shi will come to pick it up when he needs it, and ask his grandfather and grandmother to help take care of one or two.

Chen Jingzhi read the letter and said, "Okay, good, she also knows that this fish is not another fish, and she knows that she wants to use silver to make money, but she didn't read the book in vain." ”

Mrs. Chen said with a smile: "Sister Ru is not happy in your mouth, I was not at ease at first, and she did things without measure, I think we can rest assured this time, Sister Ru is sensible." ”

Dong Ruyi's meaning is obvious, that is, I will use my silver, and as for where to use it, the second elder can inquire at will.

Chen Jingzhi and his wife were very happy, and directly asked Wang Shi to go in and reply.

Wang Shi didn't expect Master Chen to meet him, and when he entered the house, he knelt down and kowtowed to Master Chen and his wife. He knows a little about the Chen family, and his own young lady still depends on the Chen family to have today.

Chen Jingzhi said: "Okay, get up, do a good job for Sister Ru'er in the future, if you use silver, just come and get it." ”

Wang Shi hurriedly responded.

When he left the gate of Chen's house, he rushed to Muzhai again.

According to Zhou's mother's instructions, he did not show up in person, but found a young beggar for food, gave him a big money, and asked him to give the letter to Xiao Si, who was guarding the door.

The little begger took the copper coin and sent the letter directly.

Xiao Si, who was guarding the door, saw the letter, looked around, and took it in.

Dong Ruyi's letter to Mu Zhai roughly said that Dong Wenyi was almost not killed by Dong Shengxing because of too much debt. At this moment, Dong Wenyi still has a foreign debt of 100,000 taels that has not been exposed, and it is natural to repay the debt, but if one person dies, it will be difficult to get this silver.
