When Lin Ruhai heard this, he was indeed in a hurry to go out, but Jia Min only thought that he was going to Rongguo Mansion and didn't ask in detail. When Daiyu didn't see her father when she was eating, she called someone to ask about it, only to know that she had gone to the fourth master's mansion.

"It's business." Jia Min frowned, still thinking about what he said, whether the master listened to it.

"I'm afraid it's the drunkard's intention not to drink." Daiyu sighed lightly, there is a freshly kneaded peach blossom cake today, just smelling it is fragrant, but she has no appetite at all.

Jia Min stopped holding the chopsticks of the peach blossom cake, "Do they really dare to sue?" "Even if there is the support of the Ninth Master, the Guogong Mansion can repay this silver by selling some things in one go, but what good is it to offend the concubine in the palace.

"They don't want silver." Daiyu was stunned, and more than 100,000 taels of silver looked like a lot, what is it to these princes and elder brothers. Where they are the Lord who puts the silver in their hearts, they look at something else.

In the past few years, the battle for succession has intensified, and the eighth master, the ninth master, the tenth master and the fourteenth master are tied together, and everyone knows what they want to do. The Ninth Master held Xia Jingui and Sun Shaozu in his hands at this time, not because he took a fancy to the IOUs in their hands, but just used this excuse to coax Rongguofu to follow them all the way.

No matter what else in Rongguo Mansion, there is always a virtuous concubine in the palace who is deeply favored, how can it be a help.

"Ridiculous, the old lady won't answer." As soon as Jia Min put down his chopsticks, he also thought of this festival, and he didn't even want to use rice.

"Yes, the old lady won't answer." But if they can hide it from the old lady, Mrs. Wang is the mother of the concubine, what do you want the old lady to agree to? But Daiyu didn't want to say this, she didn't want Jia Min to be confused and fall into it again. It's easy to come to your senses, and it's best to keep sober.

Although Jia Min said this, it didn't take much at night, and when Daiyu was about to fall asleep, she asked, "Is there still a light waiting in my mother's yard?" ”

Agarwood sent the little girl to run errands, and came back and said, "Not only is the lamp lit in the courtyard, but also someone has been sent to guard the second gate, and when the master returns, please come in." ”

Daiyu knew that Jia Min was going to ask clearly, and she couldn't stop it, so she said, "Let's rest." ”

Lin Ruhai was hugging Jia Min's shoulders and comforting, "There is no shadow thing, why do you think so much, I went to see the prince, it is an official matter, and it has nothing to do with these." ”

How is it irrelevant, as soon as Jia Min said it, he knew that it was broken. What kind of idea the ninth master played, Lin Ruhai could think of it with his toes, and the most important thing was that the second uncle could not inherit the title, but there was a daughter who sat on the throne of the concubine. If someone promises something on the title, they can't say that the second room will be moved.

Jia Min calmed down, "When the master said this, I was relieved." Look at me, I even bothered to ask these questions, and I didn't ask the master if he had eaten it, so let the kitchen use chicken soup and a bowl of noodles to come. ”

"I've eaten outside, hot water scalds my feet, let's rest." Lin Ruhai waved his hand, he was very tired from tonight's conversation, and he didn't want to say anything more.

Within a few days, the news leaked out, and everyone knew that Sun Shaozu was going to marry Xia Jingui. Jia Fuli also knew that this was wrong.

Sister Feng's face was frosty, her brows were lowered, and she said angrily: "They dare, aunt, and wait for me to write back to my father." ”

In a hurry, even the name of her mother's family came out, and Mrs. Wang pressed her hand, "Good boy, what can be solved by silver, where do you have to work your father." I can't say it, just tighten the matter on the other end, and I'll get it. ”

"That's all it can be." Sister Feng knew what the dumb riddle that Mrs. Wang was playing, and although it was Mrs. Wang's idea, it was Sister Feng who was in Zhang Luo. The benefits here are extraordinarily thick, and on weekdays, in order not to have an accident, they are all slow. Now in a hurry to use the silver, it is necessary to make these lazy bones move.

As soon as he finished discussing with Sister Feng, Jia Zheng had already sent someone to invite Mrs. Wang.

"Didn't Xia Jingui recognize you as a godmother? What kind of trouble is this? Jia Zheng was quite puzzled when he heard about the marriage of the two outside, and when he thought that the two of them were holding their own IOUs, he felt that he should ask a question or two.

Mrs. Wang's head was full of lawsuits, and she said angrily: "Don't mention this family again, it's just a troublemaker." ”

offended Gege in the Thirteenth Master's Mansion and was slapped on the lips, so she sued Jia Zheng, but she hid the section where she took someone to the Lin family to find a place.

"A little Gege, what kind of grudge can he remember, it's just a matter of beating him on the spot. She is now under the door of the ninth master, since she has recognized her godfather, let's give a gift. Jia Zheng loves face, and he doesn't want others to publicize their IOUs.

"Got it, sir." Mrs. Wang was no longer willing to and could not save Jia Zheng's face, so she had to accept it.

The woman said that when she added makeup, Mrs. Wang would not go in person, so she sent her mother to go. I sent a pair of lapis lazuli inlaid with a pair of Chuan'er, but the words I brought back were not very good.

"Miss Xia mentioned the IOU." Where does Mama dare to tell the truth, what Xia Jingui said is really ugly, what kind of official wife has such spare money to add some face, it is better to return the silver. Anyway, there is a lady in the family, why did the garden that the mother rewarded ask them to repair. Otherwise, divide half of this Grand View Garden to the Xia family, and don't want this silver.

The grandmother who listened to it had a fever and couldn't get off the stage. Fortunately, there was no one around, otherwise it would be a shame and a big shame.

"Sure enough, the merchant girl is the merchant girl, how can there be affection in her eyes, only the stinky and coaxing." Mrs. Wang could only run again, urging Sister Feng to quickly take back the account outside.

Sister Feng sighed, "It's already going back, but if it's pressing, those rotten people wipe their hearts and hang themselves, which is another headache." ”

Mrs. Wang bit her lip, "How can this be good, the Xia family can't be good anymore." ”

"Otherwise, let the Xue family borrow some more, it's always your own family, and it's easy to talk." Sister Feng thought that several women in the Wang family were helping the Jia family to borrow money, and they were sitting comfortably by themselves, and they sighed several times.

"No more, your cousin has just taken over the matter, and he wants to invest a lot of money in the inventory, and he has to go on a long trip." Poor families are rich, let alone such rich and noble families, Xue Pan will definitely not take away less silver this time. In a short time, I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of them anymore.

Sister Feng couldn't do anything, her anxious mouth was burning, and Ping'er made her tea and brought it in. persuaded in a soft voice: "In previous years, it was not done like this, but this year it has changed, and there are many people who want to sell their sons and daughters. ”

"I don't know, everything has been said, but where is my aunt willing to respond. I also want to have face and inside, but I don't mean I live to suffer. When Sister Feng said this, tears were about to fall, she has always been a competitive person. When I applied for this family business, the first thing was because of this title.

can look at the current days, Second Master Lian and her are not of the same heart, and they are still messing with flowers and grass outside all day long. The head of the family said that Sister Feng was in charge of the house, but in fact, she used her dowry to fill it in. A huge Rongguo Mansion, from old to young, where to fill in is the head.

Let's just say that this matter of putting the money in India was not what she thought about, and Mrs. Wang found it, but she didn't do it herself, but she ordered her to do it. If you don't do it, you will sit and eat nothing, and it will take a few years for the family to recover. I had to repair the garden again, but fortunately, the Xue Xia family gave money to repair the garden.

It was Mrs. Wang's own daughter who took it, but this debt was not on the back of Rongguofu. This title is like a carrot hanging in front of it, and in order to eat, it has to be constantly grinding like a donkey.

Ping'er took a handkerchief and wiped away Sister Feng's tears, "The IOU written to the Xia family is not limited to a limited time, and it is not okay to discuss?" ”

"There is no benefit, where is the Xia family willing." The most important thing is how Madame Wang would pull down her face and beg her.

"Let the people below hurry up and do it, we can't let the lady in the palace lose face." Sister Feng sighed and closed her eyes tightly.

Ulan Gege received the kite, and within a few days, he posted a post asking Daiyu to go to the peach blossom forest on the outskirts of the city to step into spring. Daiyu thought about it, so she asked someone to pick up Jingyu back a day in advance, and said to Gege in advance, and took Jingyu with her.

"Tut-tut, Sister Lin is guarding against you, look, everyone has been found." Ulan Gege took the letter, naturally said yes, turned around and told Hongyun, and laughed at him with this.

"I'll tell you about that bag of gems, and deduct it from your monthly silver." Hongyun flicked the corners of his clothes, and he didn't have any expression at all.

But Ulan Gege couldn't hold it back, hugged his thighs and cried, "Big brother, I don't dare to talk about big brother anymore, you can spare my little sister." ”

There was not a single tear in his eyes, and he stole a look at his expression through his fingers.

"Don't make ghosts, remember to ask the Yangzhou chef at home to make some dim sum and bring it, the dim sum over there is excellent."

"Yes, Ulan remembers." Who doesn't know that this is because Sister Lin has been in Yangzhou for several years, but she doesn't dare to talk more. If it weren't for the eldest brother who asked her to make an appointment, where would she be able to go out like this these days.

"Silly boy." The Thirteenth Master asked Hongyun to be brought over, and when he looked at him, he couldn't help but smile.

"Amma." Hongyun had anger in his voice, if it weren't for his father's so-called overall situation in the past few years, how could he have been separated from Daiyu.

"Okay, okay, I'll tell you." The Thirteenth Master touched his nose embarrassedly, knowing that it was his own harm, "First of all, you have to ask others to explain clearly, you can't hide it with your armpits, otherwise you won't be able to forgive you if you don't go." ”

Hongyun slapped the knife in the past, who said it seemed that the sky was about to fall, and no one could sue sù and no one could be involved. Now it's his fault, if it weren't for all these years of training outside, he has been rubbed and calm, and he is still like a child, he can jump up immediately to expose Amma's shortcomings.

The thirteenth master smiled embarrassedly, this thing was not authentic for him. But if you don't do that, what can you do?

After waiting for a long time, I didn't see my son move, so I couldn't help but wonder: "What else do you have?" ”

Hongyun's face darkened, "What else?" ”

You only said one first, there are one, there are two, maybe there are three, how can you say that there is no follow-up in the first place.

The Thirteenth Master laughed and patted Hongyun's shoulder, "That's right, chasing girls should be like this, the thicker the skin, the better." Okay, go ahead, Amma is your strong back. ”

What is it, Hongyun snorted angrily. E-Niang is right, Ama is a child, and she hasn't grown up yet.

On the day of the trip, there was really Hongyun next to Ulan, and he was afraid that he would be the same as the last time, and there would be a short-sighted collision.

Daiyu here with her younger brother Jingyu, Jingyu is still a childish half-grown teenager, not enlightened at all, seeing that Hongyun is also there, it is only for him. pulled Hongyun and left, only saying, "Let's go to play together, follow my sister, and we can only listen to her nagging." ”

Hongyun looked at Daiyu, who stared at her toes without raising her head. It's Ulan's face is tight, and he just wants to find a place where no one is around, hugging his stomach and laughing.

After not getting a response from Daiyu for a long time, Hongyun had to be dragged away by Jingyu, and looked back as he walked, hoping that Daiyu would say a word so that they could stay.

When flying kites, Ulan Gege flies a string of flower kites, each flower is only the size of a palm, a string of dozens of flowers, and there are small bells on it. Put it in the sky, the flowers are still ringing, not to mention how dazzling it is.

Ulan Gege couldn't lift it until he put it in his hands, so he was willing to give it to others, and he had to advise, "Keep putting it, I love to see it floating in the sky." ”

On the other end, they had already been invited to dinner. Before Daiyu came, Ulan Gege said that they were ready to eat, so that Daiyu didn't have to bring anything.

However, Daiyu still brought some fruit, which was cut into slices and pickled in honey, and it was just right to take it out as a dessert before and after meals.

When I went, I realized their ingenuity, and I actually set up a pot to burn the fire and eat shabu-shabu. The steaming heat and aroma are fragrant, attracting many people to look at it.

"What my eldest brother thinks, how is it, isn't it particularly good." Ulan's voice was very proud, but his eyes secretly looked at Hongyun Fei's knife. If it weren't for Sister Lin, the eldest brother wouldn't have put so much thought into his own family.

"It's good to eat comfortably, of course." Daiyu avoided the importance and took it lightly.

Hongyun asked his subordinates to bring a set of stoves, and others ate cold snacks outside, they poured it well, stirred up the pot, hot soup, a plate of cut meat, and the vegetables were blanched and dipped in the ingredients.

Everyone sat on the ground, and they didn't care about the men and women outside, but they sat together, and the subordinates took the screen and erected it, slightly blocking the eyes of others.

The thin slices of mutton are carried with chopsticks, turned over a few times in the pot and cooked, and the green side dishes are poured into the soup and rolled while they are crispy, and they are fresh and tender. Blowing a small breeze and eating shabu-shabu, everyone is satisfied.

Only Hongyun had a ghost in his heart and looked at Daiyu from time to time. Seeing that she stopped her chopsticks, she also put them down, "It's ready to eat so quickly, don't you use it any more?" ”

"No need." Daiyu shook her head.

"Do you want to go around and eliminate food, the peach forest over there is blooming well."

"Go, go, you go quickly, I'll eat with the Lin family brother for a while." Wulan is grabbing meat with Jing Yu, obviously Jing Yu is shabu-shabu, and when she sees that it is cooked, she wants to take it away. Jingyu was not annoyed, and went inside, Wulan had already fished a bowl, and he didn't eat it, but only played trick-or-treats with him.

"Don't bully people." Hongyun glanced at his sister reproachfully.

Ulan only squeezed his eyes at him, yes, I don't do this, how can I drag him in it.

"Gege is joking with me." Jing Yu grinned, revealing a mouthful of white teeth.

The two of them are naturally still following people, agarwood and apricot fruit are embellished behind, Hongyun's little guy is a clever one, next to agarwood and apricot fruit, a sister in one mouth, coaxing them to smile.

"Do you still like the new mirror?" refers to the several mercury mirrors that he sent to Lin's house yesterday that are more than one person high.

"Although the diorama was opened by your family, wouldn't the Thirteenth Master be annoyed if you gave favors like this?" Daiyu looked up to see the peach blossoms, and the trees were full of blooms, which was really the death of the peach, scorching its bloom. But the next son Yu Gui, IKEA and her family, made her face blush slightly, and fanned this poem from her head.

"So you guessed, too, you are so smart, how could you not guess. However, I didn't intend to hide this from you. Hongyun smacked.

Daiyu sighed slightly in her heart, what I guessed myself and what you sued me are two different things. The difference between this is huge.

Seeing that Daiyu didn't speak, Hongyun thought of Amma's first, and hurriedly said, "All these years, it's me who is wrong." ”

"It's okay." Daiyu pointed to a peach blossom on the top of her head, broke a small branch of apricot fruit, and played with it in her hand.

Hongyun touched a soft nail, and he didn't know how to open his mouth for a while. Only followed closely behind Daiyu, and slowly walked to the highest point of the peach blossom forest, and there was a farmhouse below, which was smoking at this time. From time to time, there were a few dogs barking and rooster crowing, and there was a lot of life atmosphere, but it broke the cold atmosphere that enveloped them.

"What's that?" Daiyu's eyes were sharp, and when she saw a few small black dots, you chased me and ran into the peach blossom forest. I couldn't help but lift my toes, wanting to take a closer look.

"The little ones go and see." The little guy behind Hongyun ran down with a smoke, and he didn't run a few steps, and the people above saw it clearly.

A little girl who can't see clearly is running in front, and two men are chasing behind, the closer she gets, the clearer she can see, which is clearly not the meaning of stepping on spring.

When she saw someone above, the little girl ran faster and faster, and just gasped and shouted, "Help." "As soon as he staggered, he was caught by the people behind him.

"Save people." Hongyun shouted, the little guy had already arrived, and I didn't know what to say, so he walked up with two men.

When the two men saw Hongyun, they knelt down and kowtowed to say goodbye, and the girl who was chased also knelt down, only knowing that they were nobles, and kowtowed together.

Hongyun looked at it for a while, and then asked them to get up and reply, "What's the matter, what about the robbing of the people's girls in broad daylight?" ”

One of the men was more articulate, and took the initiative to smile and said: "This lord, now that the world is peaceful and prosperous, and it is at the feet of the Son of Heaven, how dare you." It was this little lady whose family owed our master the money and wanted to take her to pay off the debt. ”

The little girl cried loudly, but she also spoke, "We only borrowed a few taels of silver, but you asked us to pay back five hundred taels, forcing my father and mother to death, and even I would not let go, I would rather die than go to that dirty place." ”

Because of outsiders, Agarwood blocked Daiyu's front early in the morning, she only listened from behind, and was secretly surprised, borrowing a few taels to pay back hundreds, even if the donkey rolled too much. She hadn't experienced it, so naturally she didn't know the twists and turns of this place.

Sure enough, the two men laughed, "You borrowed five taels of silver to watch the eldest lady take medicine, and said that you would pay it back in a month, and if you pay it back, the profit will only be two taels of silver." If you can't pay it yet, the principal and interest will be calculated together in the second month, and you can calculate it yourself, and after most of the year, isn't this the number? This master is a scholar, so he naturally knows that we are right. ”

This is a run on Hongyun, they collect the bills, you either pay him back or leave it alone.

"The imperial court also has laws for private lending." Hongyun's lips curled, and he also made an agreement on interest, and there was a fixed number, which could not be exceeded.

"This is nature, and we all do it according to the law." The two men were determined that others could not do anything about them, who could calculate how much money they would have to pay back for half a year for five taels of silver, and it was not as much as they said.

"In half a year, according to the highest limit of the law, five taels of silver will be repaid more than seventy taels, I will count eighty taels for you, how did you calculate five hundred taels, you might as well tell me about it."

No one thought that everyone, who seemed to have nothing to do with the economy, would be able to report such a complex calculation result in one breath. The two men glanced at each other, and the person who could talk immediately changed his words, "Maybe we remembered it wrongly, but it was eighty taels, and she couldn't take it out, so she still had to go with us." ”

Hongyun glanced at Daiyu, only to see that her gaze stopped at the little girl who had been kneeling on the ground, with pity in her eyes. Then he said, "Bring her IOU, and I will pay it back for her." ”

The two men glanced at each other, revealing a look of embarrassment, Hongyun narrowed his eyes slightly, "What's the matter, it's not bad for someone to return the silver." Such a big girl, sold for only twenty or thirty taels of silver, how can you not close your pit. ”

The big man slandered, twenty or thirty taels was sold to others as slaves and maids, if it was sold to that kind of place, how could this big girl be worth one hundred and eighty taels. However, they are not hesitant for this reason, but someone has already decided on someone in advance.

"Thank you, thank you, Childe." The little girl has already kowtowed to Hongyun, her head hit the ground "Woo Bang", fortunately it is mud, if the stone slab is paved, just listening to this sound will already be a river of blood.

"You two, hurry up and get the IOU, our young master doesn't have so much time to talk nonsense with you." The little guy jumped out at the right time and pointed at the two men, the more arrogant the attitude, the more the two men dared not turn their faces.

"We really, really didn't bring it to us." Dahan finally found a reason, "It's better to come tomorrow, tomorrow we will bring an IOU." ”

This kind of thing, that is, it happened at the time, and when I got home, who would be impatient to come back tomorrow. Even if they came, they would have run away with people, and where would they chase them?

"Okay, we've taken the people, remember to bring the IOU to exchange for silver, and leave an address for them." Hongyun pointed to the small servant, left him to negotiate with the big man, and walked back with the group.

The little girl kneeling on the ground looked happy, and quickly stood up straight and followed.

When they returned, the screens were removed, and a large set of stoves was removed, and only snacks and fruits were placed, and there were prepared roses and marinades waiting for them.

"Hey, where have you been, why did you bring someone back?" Ulan pointed to the little girl who was following behind and said in surprise.

After listening to Daiyu's words, he laughed, "It's also a coincidence, I thought it was all nonsense to say such things in the book, but I didn't think it was really called an encounter." After saying that, he laughed again, only to see the eyes of the eldest brother flying over like a knife, and the laughter stopped abruptly, like a cat that had been choked by the throat.
