Shen Moyun blushed shyly, but when the words came to his lips, he became more and more eager to speak. The look of spitting couldn't help but annoy Lu and Shen Mu, and the two of them had a bad premonition together, and glanced at each other again. And the eldest aunt and grandmother, Shen Ling, sat down directly, picked up the tea bowl, ate the refreshments, and waited expectantly to watch the show.

Shen Mu couldn't hold back and stood up suddenly, "What do you mean by 'not returning to Beijing'?" Why is it difficult to return to Beijing for a while? What happened to him? "It's not that Shen Mu cares about his subordinates, it's that he is sensitive by nature, Zhao Si is the deputy steward of the Shen Mansion, no matter what happens, it is directly related to the face and interests of the Shen family.

Seeing that Shen Moyun was really "unspeakable", her two maids also "suffocated" their faces at the same time, put their heads very low, and the two of them were looking at their noses and noses, trying to reduce their sense of existence. Seeing their unspeakable appearance, Shen Mu suddenly felt that his temples began to jump inexplicably.

Shen Moyun untied a pure purple purse from her belt, took out a note from it, and motioned for the maid to present it to her father.

Shen Mu and Lu Shi were stunned at the same time, their faces were like earth, Shen Ling's curiosity was attacking, and he stepped forward and grabbed the note and read it:

"IOU: I, Zhao Si, a person from Beijing, live in Shen Mansion, Yangshu Hutong, East District of Beijing, and am currently the deputy chief manager of Shen Mansion, and the head of the family is Shen Mu, the waiter of the Zhengwupin Household Department.

I now owe a total of 500 taels of Jinling City Zuiyue Building, wine, flowers and other expenses, from now on, the interest will be settled on a daily basis, the time limit is one month, if the principal and interest are not repaid when due, Zuiyue Lou has the right to dispose of me at will, and can ask for money and silver from the Shen family or the Shen family Jinling Farm in the capital.

Debtor: Zhao Si

The sixth day of the twelfth month of the year of the Lunar New Year

Zhao Si? Then Zhao Si is the deputy steward sent by our Shen family to Jinling to deliver New Year's goods? ”

"How can this be true? This horny scoundrel is really daring! "No matter how good Shen Mu's cultivation is on weekdays, he is furious at this moment! Zhao Si was sent by them to put his daughter under house arrest, how could he have anything to do with Qinglou? What kind of thing is Zhao Si, and what qualifications does he owe money to the creditor but promise the creditor to ask the Shen family for it?

Shen Mu raised his robe and stretched out his hand to point at Shen Moyun, "Don't be hypocritical, tell me 1510 quickly!" ”

Shen Moyun looked at Shen Mu's angry but angry appearance, and he was speechless in his heart, so he was not polite:

"Didn't my father see it clearly? It's nothing more than that Zhao Si was unwilling to be lonely as soon as he arrived in Jinling, and took advantage of the New Year's goods to his uncle's family to find the largest green building in Jinling City to enjoy, and I don't know how he spent a huge amount of money of five hundred taels for entertainment.

That Zhao Si had no money to repay his debts, not only provided his father, the Shen family, but also his daughter's Zhuangzi in the countryside.

As a result, on the same day, the drunken Yuelou did more than a dozen thugs and went to his daughter's village to ask for debts. Those thugs were all fierce and vicious, full of evil rough men, smashing and robbing at will, and the daughter couldn't, so she first took the good wine and good food she had accumulated and greeted them, and spent hundreds of taels of silver to finally send them away, and promised to go to Jinling with them to negotiate with their master......"

Shen Moyun said while holding Lu's hands like a frightened bird, swallowing saliva indiscriminately: "Grandmother, those people are so terrible, they will smash things when they see them, and they will beat them when they see people, my Zhuangzi was smashed by them in less than a cup of tea...... she said, and slammed her hand injury on the old lady's soft couch, the heart-rending pain came, and two lines of tears hung down from her cheeks, which made people feel distressed......

"Then I had to follow me to the pickled place, but how could I go to such a place as an official girl? Grandmother, you don't know, how ...... that kind of place is"

Before Shen Moyun finished speaking, Shen Mu frowned and interrupted impatiently: "What next?" Don't pick on those useless ones! ”

Useless? His daughter's name is useless in his eyes? Shen Mu's sentence caused all the women in the inner room to feel a little uncomfortable, the eldest lady did a good enough! carried the black pot for that Zhao Si, and had to go to that kind of unsightly place to negotiate with those indiscriminate people, Shen Mu, the father, not only didn't know how to appease the frightened daughter, but he didn't care about his daughter's reputation?

Shen Moyun snorted coldly in his heart, but his face could only be. It took a lot of effort for her daughter to ask the bustard's mother surnamed Liu from the drunken moon building to agree to give a one-month deadline. Even the IOU in my aunt's hand was a rubbing copy that her daughter bought with the drunken Yuelou for a hundred taels of silver. ”

"Are you crazy, girl? Bought a piece of paper for a hundred taels? Hum! Then why did my Shen family have to repay the arrears owed by Zhao Si? He Zhao Si has a bad life, if he wants to kill or chop them, is he not with them? Even if he sues the government, there is no reason why the master must pay off the debt for the slave. ”

Shen Moyun sneered in her heart, if she didn't "get" Zhang Tuoyin's IOU back, who would believe her in these relatives who were better than monkeys?

"Father has a point! Zhao Si's life is indeed worthless, but the daughter's willingness to be the wronged boss is also for her father! That Drunken Moon Tower is one of the best Qin Lou Chu Pavilions in the entire Jiangnan, and it can dominate the tens of thousands of green buildings in the south of the Yangtze River, who knows whose industry is behind the scenes? In case she angers the person behind the scenes for this, the daughter is also afraid of hindering her father's official reputation.

Moreover, if Zhao Si is sent to the official mansion, his father will definitely be left behind, conniving at his subordinates, ruining his reputation and so on, and his father will definitely be pointed at at that time.

In addition, Liu Bustard's mother said that their family has a blacklist in the backyard, and all guests who owe money will be on the list for VIPs to check! ”

Shen Mu listened halfway, and then sat directly in the circle chair. Oh, yes! How could he ignore this reason? The results of this year's official performance appraisal will soon come down, the situation in the cabinet is unstable, and there are many people around the Shen family, who are the in-laws of the Xia family. At this juncture, if someone catches the handle, his two-year drilling camp will be over.

In addition, he knows that the drunken moon building, the well-known name of "the first floor in the south of the Yangtze River" can never be done by a single merchant, even if there are several wealthy nobles behind the support, it is normal to divide the benefits. He, a five-rank Beijing official, was afraid that he had no weight at all in the eyes of those people.

In the end, it is impossible for him not to care about the blacklist, Jinling is a fortress and a heavy city, there are many officials and businessmen who come and go from the south to the north every day, and the number of nobles who like to socialize in the Qinglou is even more numerous...... If your name is on that "blacklist"? Shen Mu didn't dare to think about it, so that he couldn't vent the fire in his belly at the moment.

If the father doesn't care and doesn't want to stand up for Zhao Si, the daughter can only throw away the farm. This time, in order to deal with the Shen family, the income that my Zhuangzi has accumulated in the past few years has been used up, in addition to the hundred taels of silver sealed for the thugs, the hundred taels of silver to buy this IOU rubbing, the daughter also sealed a red envelope of one hundred taels to the mother of the drunken Yuelou, as well as the smashed objects and the medical expenses of the smashed peasants, and the wine, meat, fruits and vegetables that were taken away, almost a total of four hundred and dozens of taels. Right now, my Zhuangzi is so destitute that he can't even afford to buy seeds to be planted next spring.

Please also ask my father to make it clear, what should I do with my Zhuangzi? ”

This? What does this mean? Shen Mu is having a headache for Zhao Si's silver, but her daughter is a lot of it, she is settling accounts with herself and asking for silver?
