When Wang Di'er heard this, he didn't say a word, picked up the tea bowl on the table and took a bite, and then spat the golden lock all over his face, and scolded: "I've fainted you, and I will bring me such hot tea, I want to burn your mother!" ”

Jin Suo was spat all over his face, but he didn't dare to fight back, so he covered his face and stood aside, bowing his head and saying nothing.

Wang Di'er scolded and scolded for a long time before he stopped. Jin Suowu didn't dare to step forward, and the little girl in the room came in and packed up the tea bowl, and they didn't say anything to each other.

After a while, Xia Gongxing went out and recruited the little man and said, "The young master is going to the east gate and send the little one to ask grandma for clothes." Wang Di'er asked angrily, "Why didn't your young master come in by himself?" What are you doing outside the East Gate?! Lai Zhao replied: "It was the old man who said that he would divide ten acres of land to the girl, and the young master should go to Zhuangzi to see the land first." The young master also said that he had some things to do today, and he was afraid that he would have to rest on the Zhuangzi, so he sent the little one in to ask for clothes. ”

When Wang Di'er heard this, his angry eyes were full of Venus, his teeth were clucking, and he couldn't speak, so he gritted his teeth and said: "Go and tell your master, I don't have the time to clean up his clothes for him, and I have the ability to rest on Zhuangzi for the rest of my life and don't come back!" I didn't get anything to ask for, so I refused to go, and said, "Grandma won't be with me, I'm just afraid that the young master will beat me." Wang Diu'er was so angry that he grabbed a feather duster from the kang, whipped the little monkey all over the ground, and scolded in his mouth: "You are afraid that your young master will beat you, it's not that I don't have long hands!" Now everyone is stepping on me, and who else in the family takes me seriously! What kind of grandmother am I, if I go on like this, there is still room for me in this house! ”

I was beaten a few times, but it hurt, so I ran out of my feet. Wang Di'er chased out the door and hit a person head-on. This Wang Di'er didn't care about it, and opened his mouth to scold: "What kind of person, blind, this upper room is also everywhere!" ”

The man was almost knocked down by her, but he stood up and steadied himself before he reprimanded: "What are you doing, shouting and screaming, jumping a little chicken, flying and dogs." Those who don't know are still rebelling in this house. ”

When Wang Di'er saw the visitor, he glanced at him twice, didn't say a word, left the feather duster, turned around and walked into the room, fell into bed, fell asleep in the face, and ignored the person.

Xia Gongxing followed up in the room, and when he saw such a look, he was also very troubled, and said: "I'm going to Zhuangzi, send a little maid to ask you for clothes, why don't you agree?" Wang Di'er slept on the bed and ignored it. Xia Gongxing stopped for a long time, and when he saw that she didn't pay attention, he pushed his knee against her waist and said, "I talk to you, why shouldn't you?" ”

Wang Di'er got up suddenly, looked at Xia Gongxing and asked, "Let me ask you, what are you doing in Zhuangzi?" Xia Gongxing knew that the little guy had left his mouth, and he didn't answer, but said: "What are you asking about this, it's just that the dealer asked someone to come over and take a look, what can be done, quickly bring the clothes to me." Wang Di'er jumped up, pointed at his nose and scolded: "I know everything, you are still coaxing the old lady here." Yesterday, how did that sassy hoof coax you with good words, and you two were willing to give her the land! All of them were blind, and their elbows were turned outward. The water spilled by the married daughter, Ming'er, she ran with the wild man again, and your bamboo basket was empty! ”

When Xia Gongxing heard this, he was very irritable, and only said: "Father's land, he can share whoever he wants, and we will intervene wherever it is." Wang Di'er spat on the ground and scolded: "The thief doesn't know the material, it's this kind of nest, I see you on weekdays, it's like avoiding cats and mice, and now I can ask a girl to step on your head." Whatever father's property, he will share whoever he wants. After a hundred years of him, this family is not all ours, and now he wants to divide it, isn't it our land? You are blinded, and you only care about pleasing your son, and you are willing to agree to such a thing! Xia Gongxing reprimanded: "Dad wants to share, what can I do?" You're not afraid, you go and tell your father. I want to go to Zhuangzi, quickly tell the girl to open the box and get the clothes, don't get entangled here. ”

Wang Di'er's eyebrows on the two brooms were upside down, and he opened his mouth and said: "If I ask this little girl to divide our land, my surname will be written upside down!" With that, he got out of bed and put on his embroidered shoes and hurried out.

Xia Gongxing saw that the Hun family ignored it and went out, he was very troubled in his heart, but when he raised his eyes, he saw Jin Lock standing on the side, and asked, "Why don't you go with you to serve?" Jin Suo came up and said a blessing, and said aggrievedly: "Although I am grandma's girl, the uncle in this house is respected." Since the uncle is here, I am afraid that the uncle will have no one to serve, so I dare not go. As he spoke, he said, "I heard that the uncle wants to take the clothes, and the key to the box is here, so I will open the box for the uncle." After that, she took out a key from her waist, walked over, the cat bent down and opened the box, took out a big coat and a shirt of Xia Gongxing, and wrapped the baggage, walked over and handed it over with both hands, but buried her head low, and did not dare to look at Xia Gongxing.

Xia Gongxing took the bag of clothes, and saw that she lowered her face, silent, and became more and more delicate, petite, gentle and respectful, and unconsciously moved in her heart, and said: "You are good-natured, your grandmother's temperament on weekdays, you should also persuade more." Jin Suo replied: "What the uncle said is that I have never persuaded him, but my grandmother's character, the uncle knows." Where are those who are willing to listen? If you can't say two words, you will be angry. I also persuaded my grandmother to come for the matter of dividing the land, but I was scolded again. I'm a girl, and it's okay to be scolded, but I couldn't persuade my grandmother, which made my grandmother quarrel with my grandfather, and ruined the relationship between my grandfather and my grandmother. ”

Xia Gongxing was very sweet when he heard these words, and he was secretly surprised in his heart: I don't pretend to look at this girl, but what's wrong today? He said, "It's hard for you to have this heart." I'm leaving, and your grandmother will come back later, remember to tell her. ”

Jin Suo replied in a low voice, sent Xia Gongxing to the door, and turned back. Seeing that there was nothing going on, Wang Di'er ran to the front hall to make trouble again, but he didn't expect to come back for a while. The golden lock sat on a wicker chair under the porch, and asked the little girl to take a plate of melon seeds with her.

Zhao'er sent melon seeds over and said, "Sister, don't eat melon seeds here, spit out the skin of the ground, and grandma will scold her again when she comes back." ”

The golden lock didn't pay attention to her, and he ate melon seeds by himself and spit out the skin all over the ground.

The trick was helpless, and he was a half-grown child, so he had to throw away his hand and walk away.

Jin Suowu thought to himself: I followed my grandmother when I was a child, and I ate and slept at home, which is incomparable to others. Even the Hui Xiang who got married can't catch up. Since I've been here, I've been giving her advice, and I've thought of everything for her. And now she has done this to me, regardless of her feelings. I think that according to my grandmother's temper, my uncle can't get along with her. She has been married for a few years, but she has not had a man and a woman, and she will have to take a concubine in the future. With the addition of a population to this family, it is difficult to say what will happen in the future. If I follow her, there may not be any good fruit to eat, so it is better to find another way out. Seeing the way the uncle looks at me, he is very affectionate, I might as well jump up first, and having a man and a woman in the future is also a lifelong support. Strong is better than being a slave for a maid, and marrying a little girl in the future!

She hit her wishful thinking once, and then said: Looking at grandma's temper in the past, she is not a tolerant person. If I really have such a thing, I am afraid that the sky will be overturned. There is no place for me in this house, and the uncle is not a man with a backbone. At that point, there was no one to advocate for me, and I wouldn't be able to survive. I think that although the girl is young, she is very assertive, and she acts and speaks differently from such cowardly and useless women in the world. If I go and beg the girl, I will follow her to the Zhuangzi first, as if I were rubbing it in the hands of this king. Even if something happens in the future, I'm a girl, and she won't let it go.

The crackling sound of the abacus beads in the bottom of the golden lock's heart, just when everything is in hand, the idea is decided, and he can't help but be proud, and he gets up and goes out.

When Zhao'er saw it, he hurriedly shouted, "Where is my sister going?" Drop this sweet potato seed skin, who will sweep it? ”

Where did the golden lock care about her, and walked away. Zhao'er had no choice but to find a broom and swept the floor with a mutter.

The golden lock went all the way to the courtyard of the Xia Chun court, and when I entered the door, I saw Bao'er sitting in the back of the beauty on the porch, doing some needlework in her hands.

She didn't rush into the house first, she stepped forward with a smile on her face, and asked Bao'er, "Hello sister, what are you busy with?" When Bao'er saw her, she knew that she was Wang Diu'er's henchman, and she was not very touted, and said with a smile: "One of our girls' clothes has taken off the thread, and I will make up for it." Then he asked, "Why does my sister have time to come here today?" Grandma doesn't need to be served there? ”

Jin Suo smiled: "Grandma has something to do, and I'm idle in the house, so I'll come over for a walk." There is also an important word to tell the girl, I don't know if the girl is convenient? Bao'er glanced at her twice, and suddenly smiled: "Sister also knows that our girl is raising a baby, the girl has been worried and laborious all these years, and her blood is very weak, and the bastard of the Lu family has made the girl angry." The girl really had to recuperate, and the former doctor came and said that don't let irrelevant people disturb the girl's purity. It's not that I don't let my sister in, but if my sister doesn't say anything inappropriate, the girl gets angry and hurts her body, and the master asks for it, none of us can afford it. ”

Jin Suo said with a smile: "My sister is so clever, no wonder the girl loves her sister." However, I am very important in what I say, for fear that the girl will suffer if she does not listen to it. Since my sister thinks about the girl, she must not let the girl take her lead? ”

When Bao'er heard this, she thought to herself: Her words seemed to have other intentions, and looking at her sneaky behavior, it seemed that she came out behind Wang Di'er's back. Anyway, I'll tell her to meet the girl and see what she has to say.

At that moment, she smiled and said: "It's hard for Sister Jinsuo to wait for the girl, since that's the case, the girl is resting on the kang in the inner house, and the sister is in charge of it." I sewed the sleeve and went in.

When Jin Suo heard this, he hurriedly went inside, but he didn't pay attention to his feet, and tripped over the threshold when he entered the door.

Bao'er looked behind her and muttered, "I don't know what I'm doing today, I'm so flustered that I can't wait to drop my shoes!" ”

The golden lock turned a deaf ear, and when he walked into the house, he saw that Xia Chunchao was about to get off the kang and put on shoes. She hurriedly took two steps and one step at the same time, rushed forward, and said with a smile: "The girl is not in good health, so I will come." While kneeling on the ground and burying her head in putting on her shoes.

Xia Chunchao didn't expect her to come in suddenly, and he couldn't stop her, so he simply went with her. After the shoes were put on, Jin Suo stood aside, asked with a smile on his face, "The girl is not resting on the kang, what is she doing?" ”

Xia Chunchao smiled and said, "I've been sitting on the kang for a long time, get up and walk on the ground." I was worried that a few embroidery jobs were not done, so I went in and took them out. ”

Jin Suo hurriedly said: "The girl is pregnant, she would rather rest, and what are you doing!" If the girl lacks someone to serve, it is better to go back to the master and call a few more people. ”

Xia Chunchao heard her words, and said tentatively with a smile: "I think so too, my body is still convenient now, but it's okay." In the future, when the belly is big, everything is inconvenient, but these two girls will inevitably be in a hurry. When the child is born, I am afraid that I will be even busier, and I often want to call a few more people to serve. However, at this moment, where to find a good girl? If they were as smart as you are, that's fine. ”

Jin Suo saw that there was a door to this, and hurriedly smiled: "The girl is not disgusted, I would rather come to serve the girl, but I am afraid that the girl will not look down on it." ”

Xia Chunchao smiled, didn't answer, and only asked, "You came over today, but my sister-in-law sent you for something?" Jin Suo shook his head and said, "This is not, grandma went to the front hall." I have something important to say, come and tell Miss Sù. ”

Xia Chunchao was suspicious in his heart and asked, "What does it matter?" ”

Jin Suo glanced around, and said in a low voice: "Early this morning, the uncle was going to Zhuangzi, and sent the little maid in to ask for clothes." Grandma didn't talk to her, and she had another fight with the uncle. Do you know why? ”

Xia Chunchao shook his head and said, "How do I know this?" ”

Jin Suo asked again: "I heard that the master promised to give the girl ten acres of land, but is there such a thing?" ”

Xia Chunchao sneered: "Should this be what you asked?" ”

Jin Suo said with a smile: "I also know about the time, but this morning the master sent the master to the grange to take a look and see which piece of land to cut for the girl." When the uncle asked the grandmother for clothes, the grandmother learned about the incident and started a quarrel with the uncle. The uncle ignored her, so she went to the front hall to find the master to reason. At the moment, I'm just afraid that I am making trouble in the hall, our grandmother's temper, the girl knows, although the lord loves the girl, but he can't help but pester, the girl still has a good preparation. ”

Xia Chunchao nodded and smiled: "It's hard for you to think like this, your grandmother is your master, and you can sue me if you are in this room." ”

Jin Suo heard the sarcasm in these words, after all, it was a young girl, with a thin skin, and she couldn't say the following words, so she only laughed and said: "What the girl said is that I just came to gossip with the girl for nothing." With that, he paused for a moment, then pushed no one in the room, turned around and went out.

Bao'er came over with her clothes in her arms and said, "Girl, it's strange that this golden lock has come today. ”

Xia Chunchao sneered: "It's not strange, I guess it's not good over there, and I want to choose another high branch to jump." So she gave me some cheap benefits first, so that I thought she was a good person. Bao'er covered her mouth and said: "I said that she was hiding and hiding, and she didn't know what to do, so she had this idea!" She is also so bold, I don't think the eldest grandmother is a good person, so she dares to change the master. ”

Xia Chunchao said: "I don't know if it was her own idea, or if the Wang family sent her to be a meticulous worker." But I don't dare to ask for such a big-hearted girl. ”

Bao'er nodded, and asked again: "There is one thing, she said that the eldest grandmother went to make trouble with the master, isn't the girl worried?" Xia Chunchao said: "What are you worried about? My father was always assertive, but over the years, who had he heard of at the mercy of whom? That Wang is just a strong inward, don't pay attention to it. ”

But it was said that Wang Di'er walked all the way to the front hall, and it happened that Xia Dongxing was settling accounts in the inner hall, and when he heard that his daughter-in-law was coming, he called in for some reason.

The woman straightened her clothes and temples, marched into the hall, bowed her head and walked to the shore, and said a blessing.

Xia Dongxing was wearing a pair of tortoiseshell glasses, his eyes looked out of the lenses, he looked at the woman twice, and asked, "The boss is not at home, you come here at this time, do you have anything to say?" ”

This Wang shouted very loudly when he was in the room, but he was really afraid of this father-in-law, and he was already timid in his heart along the way. At this time, he didn't dare to speak directly, so he only asked tentatively: "The master sent the uncle to the Zhuangzi early in the morning, and the uncle didn't explain it to the daughter-in-law, and the daughter-in-law came to ask why, and the uncle will spend the night in the Zhuangzi at night." ”

Xia Dongxing didn't hide it, and said bluntly: "I thought that the Spring Dynasty would have no one to rely on in the future, and I would have another child in the future, so I thought about giving her ten acres of land on Zhuangzi. Those ten acres of fertile land are not small, enough for their mother and son to eat. In the future, if she does something to make a living, she will also live this life. ”

When Wang heard about this, his face sank, and he smiled again: "The master feels sorry for the girl, so it doesn't matter if he takes her home to live, and he also divides the field with her." Xia Dongxing glanced at her and said, "What kind of stupid talk is this, my daughter, I don't feel distressed, but who is waiting to feel distressed?" Wang Di'er was choked speechless, and said for a long time: "Dad, I have something to say, I don't know if you like to hear it." Xia Dongxing said: "It's all a family, where are these Qiao Long and Tiger Painters, you can take care of what you have." ”

Wang Di'er said: "Dad, the girl has just come home, and the old man is distressed, so that's it." However, not to mention that the Lu family is not really broken, even if it is really broken, how can the girl not marry again in the future? Didn't this property go into someone else's pocket? Dad is shrewd, how can this son be confused. ”

When Xia Dongxing heard this, he knew that this mother-in-law had inquired about the news from nowhere, and came over to talk about it, very irritable, and said: "The Spring Dynasty has no intention of remarrying, so we don't do anything in our family for the rest of our lives." I'd rather raise them for the rest of my life, so you don't have to bother with that. ”

Wang Di'er smiled: "Dad's words don't make sense, I have never heard of a girl in the world who died at home." Not to mention, the old lady of the Shen family next door came over yesterday, and she also intended to marry a girl to continue the string. Our girl is so beautiful, and she is young, what are you guarding it! In the future, I am afraid that if I don't step on the threshold, I may not be moved by the girl. ”

Xia Dongxing's face sank and scolded: "Even if she really remarries in the future, these ten acres of land can be regarded as adding makeup to her." She's raising a baby, don't bother her if you have nothing to do. Even the girl has been pregnant for all these years after getting married, and you should be good at conditioning and conditioning your body when you have nothing to do. Although my Xia family doesn't take concubines, I don't allow the boss to go out and do nonsense, you should also be careful, don't let the boss break off. ”

After a few words, Wang Di'er was speechless, and he didn't dare to forcibly refute it, so he stood for a long time and retired.

The Wang family scolded all the way, and when he returned to the room, he didn't see the golden lock, so he asked Zhao'er: "Where did the hooves go?" Zhao'er replied that he didn't know.

At this moment, Jin Suo came in from outside with his head down.

Wang Di'er was full of resentment, and when she saw her, she immediately asked, "Where are you going?" I'm not in the house, and you're gone. The golden lock had nothing to say, so he had to stand aside and listen.

For half a day, Zhao'er stewed tea, and Jin Suo held a cup with her.

Wang Di'er was eating, and suddenly asked, "Why haven't I seen Sister-in-law Li come these days?" Jin Suo replied: "Grandma forgot, Sister-in-law Li's mother died last month, and she went back to her hometown to mourn." As he spoke, he asked, "Grandma asked her what she was doing?" This mother-in-law usually talks about matchmaking, buying and selling maids, or seeing a doctor with acupuncture. ”

At this point, she was sick in her heart, and she was afraid that Wang Di'er would find out about the right talent, and said with a tentative smile: "Grandma doesn't have to buy and sell girls now, so she must be a little unhappy?" ”

Wang Di'er sneered: "There's nothing wrong with my body, I just want to ask her for medicine, so as to get rid of my henchmen." When Jin Suo heard this, the stone in his heart fell to the ground, and he asked with a smile: "I don't know what grandma is referring to?" Wang Di'er said: "If you don't calm that hoof and stomach, how can you send her to Shen's house?" ”

Jin Suo asked, "Why did Grandma change her mind?" I told my grandmother this earlier, but my grandmother still thinks about our second girl. Wang Di'er put down the tea bowl and said, "This is cheap, and I can't ask her to share our property." ”

When Jin Suo heard this, he secretly said in his heart: I kindly sued her, but she hurt me like this. The dog bites Lu Dongbin, and he doesn't know the hearts of good people. Even so, I don't have to worry about her.

At that moment, she smiled and said to Wang Di'er: "If grandma has this intention, she is not afraid. Sister-in-law Li is not there, and there is a Tao mother who opens a tea shed on West Street, and I have heard that she also has some medical skills. The eldest daughter of the old man in the west of the city was made belly bigger before she got married, and she was only stable after taking her medicine. Grandma might as well call her to ask, she also wanted to come to greet grandma, but she didn't dare to come rashly. ”

When Wang Di'er heard this, she was in the middle of her arms and said with a smile: "I'm not a tiger and a leopard, she wants to come to ask for peace, just take care of herself, what are you waiting for?" Jin Suo understood in his heart and smiled.

Besides, Zhu'er took a car early in the morning, took a few family members to follow, and traveled all the way to the front of the Lu family's dry goods store.

When I got off the bus, it was just when the door panel of the dry goods store was open for business. The guy at the door recognized her, and hurriedly went in and called the shopkeeper out.

When Xia Ming heard the news, he hurriedly came out, and sure enough, he saw Zhu'er standing in front of the door, and asked, "Why did Miss Zhu'er come here alone today, presumably grandma has some orders?" Zhu'er smiled smartly and replied: "Hello Uncle Xia, our girl is no longer a grandmother now, it's better to call her a girl." ”

Xia Ming also knew a little about the changes in the Lu family's door, but he had always been suspicious and unbelieving, but now when he heard Xia Chunchao's maid say this, he knew that it was the truth, nodded and sighed: "It turns out that if there is such a thing, I really don't know what the Lu family is tossing." Then he changed his words and asked, "What do you have to tell the girl to call you?" ”

Zhu'er told Xia Chunchao about it, took out the IOU, and said with a smile: "The girl said, the Lu family owes the Xia family money, and since the house can't take it out, they have to get out of the shop." Uncle Xia is sensible and understands at a glance. Xia Ming took the IOU, looked at it carefully, handed the IOU back to Zhu'er, and said, "Fortunately, the girl has already instructed me to keep a large amount of money elsewhere." In the past two days, the old man of the Lu family came with people a few times, urging him to ask for money, but I only said that there was no cash, so they only took a few dozen taels of broken silver inside and out. Now that the girl wants it, I will tell the man to go to the silver shop and get it. As he spoke, he hesitated slightly, and then said, "It's just that there is not so much silver in the shop now, and the silver shop is only eight thousand taels." ”

Zhu'er smiled: "The girl said, she naturally knows that there is no silver in the shop." And the rest of the money was to be paid off with the stock in the shop. If it's not enough, just write an IOU. As for the side matter, the girl said that Shopkeeper Xia naturally understood. ”

Xia Ming smiled and nodded; "The girl is right." He hurriedly sent someone to the silver shop to withdraw money, and invited Zhu'er to the house to serve tea first.

Xia Ming asked, "The girl has returned home, has she always been okay?" Since the girl arrived at the Lu family, how much she has worked for the Lu family over the years, what is it for, they actually got rid of the girl. Zhu'er sighed and said: "What do you know, what is the matter in the Lu family, Uncle Xia, you also know a little, how can the old lady, the wife and the old man, how can there be one to serve?" Life was better, enough was used, and what kind of official did their son do, so he swayed, looked down on our girl, and found some trumped-up charges at will, so he got rid of the girl. He refused to dwell on the reason.

Xia Ming heard this, and guessed a little in his heart, sighed and said, "Let the girl want to open some, don't take such a rotten family to heart." Away from here, you can find a better place to go. Thinking that when the girl was at home, the begging person couldn't wait to break through the threshold, but it was a pity that the girl had set it early, and how many good relatives she pushed. Now there is no difficulty in remarrying. ”

Zhu'er said: "The master said the same thing, but the girl refused." ”

While he was talking, the man who took the silver had already rushed back from the car and came in to report: "The silver has been taken, two thousand taels in a box, a total of four boxes, please go out and inspect it." Xia Ming walked outside with Zhu'er, and sure enough, he saw a carriage stopped in front of the hall.

Zhu'er got into the car, opened the box and ordered it, and when she saw that the number was good, she came out and said to Xia Ming: "Uncle Xia, the silver is right." There are still many decent dry goods in the shop, and they have all arrived! Xia Ming bowed his head and instructed his men to take out the dried scallops, dried bamboo shoots, bacon, ham, dried abalone, bird's nest and other dry goods stored in the warehouse, and carried them to the car regardless of whether they were good or bad.

was in the heat of chaos, only to hear one person shouting: "What are you doing here?!" Do you want to steal goods to sell?! ”

When everyone heard this, they all looked at each other, only to see Lu Huancheng striding over from the corner of the street with two family members.

Lu Huancheng stepped forward and shouted at Xia Ming, "Are you a prisoner and a thief?!" Zhu'er was not afraid when she saw this old master, stood aside, and said with a smile: "Master Lu, you never cared about things in the shop in the past, why are you so diligent now?" ”

When Lu Huancheng saw this girl, he raised his eyebrows and scolded angrily: "Why are you here?!" This is the Lu family's shop, there is room for you hairy girl to interject! Zhu'er smiled and said: "Master Lu, what you said is wrong, we are not uncommon in the affairs of your Lu family." Before our girl went out, the Lu family made an IOU of 15,000 taels of silver. Your old nobleman forgets so much, won't he not remember anymore? I'm just ordered to collect my debts today, and you don't have to embarrass Shopkeeper Xia. ”

When Lu Huancheng heard her expose the scandal of the Lu family, his old face turned red, and he ignored her, and only shouted to Xia Ming: "You are the shopkeeper of the Lu family's shop, why do you turn your elbow out?!" When someone brings a piece of paper, they are busy sending money out, but they still take us in their eyes?! ”

Xia Ming touched his nose and replied respectfully: "Master's words are wrong, it is natural to repay debts." The most important thing for buying and selling people is the word Xinyi. If we are to settle our debts on the street today and spread the word, who else will be willing to do business with us? What's more, this IOU was written by the lord himself, and the handprint signature was exactly the same, even if he saw the official, he had to take out the money. No matter what the master says, this can't be avoided. ”

Lu Huancheng's face was flushed, and he only heard Zhu'er say coldly: "I knew why I had to do it today, if you didn't drive away the God of Wealth Bodhisattva, you wouldn't have stopped today's famine." Master Lu, do you still have the leisure to buy your stuff now? ”

Lu Huancheng was furious, raised his hand to hit the beads, and was about to fan this girl to the ground, but the arm was raised but couldn't fall again.

I heard another person say: "What can't be discussed properly, and you have to do it on the street?" Moreover, there is no glory in beating a woman. ”

Lu Huancheng looked back and saw a tall jade-faced Langjun standing behind him, holding his arm with one hand. He saw that this person had a handsome face, a majestic instrument, and a very good robe and crown. I didn't know who it was, but I saw Zhu'er come forward and bow down to the man and say goodbye, and shouted, "He Gongzi." ”

It turned out that this person was Lu Chengyong's brother He Haogu.

He Hao Gu Waner smiled, let Lu Huancheng go, and said to Zhu'er: "You came out alone today, what about your grandmother?" Zhu'er replied, "Our grandmother is no longer a grandmother, and she is a girl again." Because I couldn't ask for the dowry before leaving, the girl sent me to ask for it. I never thought about it, but I was scolded by the lord of the Lu family, thanks to the son's rescue. ”

He Haogu raised his eyebrows, and bowed to Lu Huancheng: "It turned out to be an uncle, Xiaosheng has offended a lot." ”

Lu Huancheng said angrily: "Who are you, come to take care of our family's affairs!" ”

He Haogu smiled and said: "My surname is He, my name is Haogu, and I am good friends with Linglang in the Northwest Army, and I have the friendship of Jinlan." In the next family, the ancestor is the marquis of the dynasty, and now he is in the middle of the court to lead the position of Kyoto guard. I always want to go to the house to visit my uncle, but I can't have a free time. Who knew that Da'an went out of Beijing on business again, and it has been delayed until now. ”

This Lu Huancheng is a person who is attached to the flames, and when he heard this, he threw his anger into Java, laughed all over his face, and said: "It turned out to be Gongzi He, disrespectful and disrespectful." When the son is free, he should also go to the house. Since we are good at the same time, it is the same when Da'an is not there. ”

When Zhu'er heard this, she snorted and said on the side: "People are your son's brother-in-law, but you are disrespectful here, I really don't know what kind of seniority it is." ”

Lu Huancheng scolded: "Where is your mouth, get out of the way!" Zhu'er argued: "Return the money to our girl, and I will leave immediately." Do you think I'd like to stay here?! Lu Huancheng scolded: "Sure enough, what kind of master makes what kind of minions!" Your master is cunning and cunning, and you are so good at a young age! I'll send you to the government, just say that you are blackmailing, and let the old man Xiansi give you a slap to see if you can do it! ”

Zhu'er was not afraid of him, and mocked: "Now that the master is an official, the tone is so big, and the action is to send people to the government." Thinking that when we were at home, Master Lu asked our girl to ask for money to buy things, and the honor of being low-voiced was embarrassed to call the master! Now that the young master of your family is an old lady, he will be powerful and blessed, so that people can see half of it! ”

Lu Huan became angry and shouted to the two family members who were following him: "If your hands are tied, are they all dead?!" Why don't you take this hoof off quickly, and let her make trouble in front of our shop?! ”

The two family members of the Lu family listened to the master's instructions and came up to capture Zhu'er. The Xia family who came with Zhu'er naturally stood inside, and most of the guys in the dry goods store came from the Xia family, and they secretly tried to persuade them. Zhu'er is not forgiving, and she shouts words such as "wolf-hearted, dog-lunged, ungrateful" and so on. For a while, there was a mess in front of the Lu family's dry goods store, and the neighbors were surrounded by a few of them who knew the story inside.

That Lu Huancheng blushed and had a thick neck, stunned his steps, and shouted: "It's the opposite, it's all the opposite!" The minions have all climbed to the head of the master, and I will go to report to the officials to arrest you, the evil slaves who deceive the master! As he spoke, he was about to walk out, but was stopped by He Haogu's outstretched arm.

Na He Haogu grabbed Lu Huancheng with one hand, but held Zhu'er with the other, and dragged the two of them to the inner hall together. He is a person who practices martial arts, and he has a thousand strengths on his arms, this old man, a young girl, how can he stop it, he has to let him rub it.

He Haogu pulled the two of them to the hall and said to Lu Huancheng: "The little nephew is rude and offended, don't blame the uncle." ”

Lu Huancheng snorted and said, "It's easy to say, but why does the nephew care about our family's affairs?" He Hao Gu Waner said: "The little nephew is listening on the side, it seems that the uncle's mansion has actually divorced the young lady?" The little nephew is puzzled, this court wife is not an ordinary wife, how can she not report to the court and say goodbye privately? Lu Huancheng's face turned red, and he said a few words: "Now that Da'an is not here, he has not reported it." When he comes back, he will naturally report to the Ministry of Rites. Lu Huancheng smiled slightly and said: "That is the case, the reason for divorce in the world is to return the dowry and other property to the woman's family." I listened to the girl's words, but it seemed that she had not returned her belongings. So, she came to ask for the Lord today, but is there such a thing? ”

When Lu Huancheng heard this, he shut up and didn't answer, and when he was about to say yes, how to lose this face; If not, the IOU in Zhu'er's hand was written by herself, how to deny it. It's really a dilemma, a dilemma.

Zhu'er saw it and hurriedly said, "Why not, otherwise where did the IOU in my hand come from?" The girl married into their Lu family, and over the years, she has subsidized her dowry to the family, opened this big dry goods shop, and bought land in the countryside, so that his Lu family is prosperous today. Now that their life is better, and the young master of his family has become an official, he looks down on our girl and drives her away. That's all, we just shouldn't take our girl's dowry. ”

He Haogu smiled and said: "Sure enough, even the little nephew is not good to speak for his uncle." I persuaded my uncle that he should pay it back, and he didn't pay it back when he saw the official, but he lost his own face. Da'an is not what it used to be, so it's better to leave some dignity for him. lest it spread and eat people and laugh at it, it will be difficult for Da'an to say kiss in the future. ”

This sentence is poking at Lu Huancheng's heart, and now the Lu family only looks at the marquis's wife to enter the door peacefully, so as to fill the gap in the family. If something goes wrong because of this, it really outweighs the loss.

At that moment, this Lu Huancheng said in a rough voice: "I didn't say no, but this girl is too hateful, and in front of so many people, she made a lot of noise in front of people's shops." What will we do with business in the future? ”

When Zhu'er heard this, she hurriedly stepped forward, bowed down to him and said goodbye, and said with a grin: "Then I'll accompany the master, the master has a lot, don't be like my little girl." Since the lord said this, he quickly paid back all the dowry owed to our girl. Let's clear the two, when the young master comes back, you also have something to say, and you won't delay the bride entering the door. ”

At this time, Lu Huancheng was really difficult to ride a tiger. He originally wanted to rely on the power of his family to shock Zhu'er and drive her away from the door, and the money owed to Xia Chunchao could be delayed for a while. Who knows that he killed a good ancient man halfway, and his status is extraordinary, and he is not something that can be offended. Seeing that things were getting bigger, for fear of ruining his son's reputation, he really knocked out his teeth and swallowed blood, so he had to let Zhu'er instruct the Xia family's family to move the warehouse of the dry goods store clean. He watched as if he had cut meat.

After the loading was completed, Zhu'er walked back to the hall. Lu Huancheng saw her turn back, and said in a rough voice: "What are you doing again?!" Aren't you still not satisfied?! Zhu'er said with a smile: "Master Lu is really the heart of a villain, I moved these things back today, so I naturally have to settle the accounts clearly." Our girl said, "We can't lose a penny for us; If it is not ours, it should not be taken up by a cent. When our girl was gone, she brought 1,300 taels of silver, and today I have taken another 8,000 denarii. Those dry goods, Shopkeeper Xia, according to the market price, counted it as two thousand taels. We took a total of 11,300 taels of silver inside and outside, and the Lu family still owed our Xia family 3,700 taels of silver. Master Lu said, I am right? ”

Lu Huancheng saw that she had taken so much property, and more than 3,000 taels of silver had not been paid off, and he couldn't help but have blue tendons on his forehead. Coincidentally, Nahe Haogu interjected on the side: "Miss Zhu'er's account is clear and clear, and people will know it as soon as they hear it." ”

Lu Huancheng had no choice but to rewrite an IOU of 3,700 taels, signed and pressed his handprint, and exchanged the IOU in Zhu'er's hand. This pearl was satisfied, and said goodbye and went out.

Zhu'er left the shop and was about to board the car, but she heard He Haogu behind her shouting: "Miss Zhu'er, stop for a while, I have something to ask below!" ”
