Chapter 135: Whoever is to blame for his own death
Mu Mingyue looked at her in surprise, wondering if her aunt still had a lot of private room here, right? Otherwise, how could he take the silver ticket from the dressing table and give it to her.
Aunt Zhang flipped through it for a while, and then came out with a very delicate box.
"Here is the jewelry that my mother has saved all these years, you can take it." Aunt Zhang opened the box and only glanced at it hurriedly, and then reluctantly looked away, "After these jewelry are sold, they are probably worth twenty or thirty thousand taels of silver, and I think this money is enough for you to spend for a while." ”
Mu Mingyue's body stiffened, she pointed to the box of exquisite jewelry, and asked unhappily, "Mother, why don't you just give me the silver ticket?" ”
Aunt Zhang smiled bitterly for a while, and then said slowly, "If I can still take out the silver ticket, do you think I am willing to sell this box of jewelry." ”
She paused, although she looked a little helpless, but she didn't mean to complain to her daughter, she just said, "These are the only savings that my mother has left for half of her life, so you can take them." ”
Mu Mingyue also wanted to say that what she needed was 50,000, not 20,000.
But seeing Aunt Zhang's lonely and helpless expression, somehow, when the words came to her lips, she didn't use her family affection to persecute Aunt Zhang for the first time.
In the end, Aunt Zhang watched her hurry away with the box of jewelry, and then returned to the room in despair.
I sat down alone next to the edge of the bed for most of the day.
"Mingyue, it's not that my mother doesn't want to help you, but I can't help you anymore."
She sighed and muttered to herself in the dark room, "That cheap girl Mu Xiaofeng, I don't know how to find out that there is a problem with the account, and she is forcing me to settle the account." ”
However, Aunt Zhang didn't want her daughter to see her helplessness, in order to cope with Mu Xiaofeng's audit these days, she was anxious to tear down the east wall and make up the west wall.
Where can more cash be released for Mu Mingyue to squander.
Mu Mingyue got the jewelry that Aunt Zhang had treasured for many years, and sold it directly as soon as she left Mu's mansion.
It's just that, just like Aunt Zhang's appraisal, these jewels were only sold for 25,000 taels of silver in the end.
"What can I do?" Mu Mingyue took those silver tickets that ordinary people couldn't spend in a lifetime, and went home with a sad face, "There is still half of the silver, where can I get it?" ”
When I got home, I unexpectedly saw Yan or Shi waiting at the door of the main hall to greet her, and when I saw her, I came directly to help her hand, and said softly, "Mingyue is back." ”
She was stunned, glanced down at his hand, but subconsciously avoided it, and then barely squeezed out a smile and walked past him, "Well, I'm back." ”
Yan or Shi was not in a hurry, followed her into the house gently and considerately all the way, and instructed her subordinates to get her favorite tea.
Finally, he asked, "How, have you got the money?" ”
Although Mu Mingyue knew that he was so kind to him, it was for the silver, but after a while, he showed his true face, and she was still a little uncomfortable in her heart.
She lowered her head, held the cup to shield her expression, and said lightly, "I got it." ”
Yan Qishi's face was happy, the corners of her eyes moved, and her voice was lower, "However, it's only half." ”
"Half?" Yan Qishi's face changed, but he still smiled very gently, "Why is it only half?" ”
"My aunt has no extra silver, and the 25,000 taels of silver are still sold with the jewelry she has treasured for many years."
The smile on Yan Youshi's face was gone, he twisted his eyebrows, and looked at Mu Mingyue meaninglessly, "What if it's still halfway?" ”
What to do?
Mu Mingyue really wanted to yell at him loudly, and she also wanted to know what to do. Is this man just having one face? If you don't have money, you just ask her to get money.
But she has no guts.
After seeing Yan or Shi Shi's face-changing kung fu, she always felt furious about him in her heart, and there was a murderous shadow that would not disperse.
But she couldn't raise more money, and after hesitating for a while, she looked at him pleadingly, and said tentatively, "Why don't we buy this official?" ”
She always felt that the matter of buying an official with a stranger with silver was too weird and unreliable.
"Short-sighted," Yan or Shi shook his sleeves and glared at her angrily, "There will be a return on investment, and if you are willing to live with this bit of silver for the rest of your life, then you will go alone." ”
Mu Mingyue was stunned, and was shocked after reacting.
"What do you want?" Do you want to divorce her?
"Not good." Yan stood up impatiently and walked up in the hall, "As long as you are obedient, you will definitely be able to capture Ronghua and wealth in the future." ”
Mu Mingyue was at a loss, not understanding where his confidence came from.
"There's no other way," Yan or Shi pondered for a moment, looking at her thoughtfully, "Don't we still have a house?" ”
Mu Mingyue was shocked and roared out of shape, "You are crazy, where will we live if you sell the house?" ”
"Wealth is in danger." Yan or Shi's eyes were disdainful, and his face had long lost patience and smile, "I sold the house today, and we can buy a bigger, better and more luxurious house one day." ”
Mu Mingyue bit her lip and shook her head desperately, refusing to let go no matter what he said.
This is the only property she has at the moment, and she can't sell it, and she can't sell it even if she kills her.
Yan or Shi saw that she was resolute, and after persuading her for a while and failing to persuade her, he no longer insisted.
But in the afternoon, he continued to go out to set up a stall, but this time he asked Mu Mingyue to pretend to be a man and go out with him.
went outside to set up a stall, and Mu Mingyue realized that his appearance was admired by so many women.
Even if he is down-and-out and set up a stall, there are still countless women who are not bad in his favor.
At night, Yan or Shi didn't seem to notice that she was preoccupied. suddenly became extremely gentle and enthusiastic, and gave her a belated ** wedding night.
When she got up the next day, Mu Mingyue decided to listen to him and sell the house.
However, if you are in a hurry to sell the house cheaply, the price will naturally not go up.
Mu Mingyue knew that when her aunt quietly bought this mansion for her as a dowry, it cost more than 50,000 yuan.
But now, she is in a hurry to ask for silver, and directly lowers the price to 40,000 and no one cares.
Mu Mingyue naturally didn't know that her house was not unattended, but that no one dared to come to ask.
Because Zhang Hua had received an order from his master to "suppress" Yan or Shi before, how could Zhang Hua miss this excellent opportunity to suppress this kind of desperate money by selling the house.
Moreover, he also knew that Mu Xiaofeng intended to buy this house at a low price.
He would certainly prefer to carry out the crackdown more thoroughly.
This day was the fourth day that Mu Mingyue had released the news that she was going to sell the house, and she sat in the dormitory at a loss and couldn't figure it out.
Why is it that such a good location, such a good house, and such a low price, will be unattended for several days. Even if she wants cash, looking at the rich capital everywhere, there are many people who can take out tens of thousands of cash.
In the Fenglin Curie, Mu Xiaofeng smiled faintly and listened to Hongying report the details to her in the octagonal pavilion.
"Red Shadow, let her dry first, and then let people lower the price. Since she is in a hurry to raise money, she will definitely give in in the end. ”
"Yes, miss." Red Shadow hesitated for a moment, "I wonder how much silver Miss plans to buy that mansion for?" ”
She was worried that the price would be too low, in case Mu Mingyue found another buyer, wouldn't Miss be a bamboo basket for nothing?
Mu Xiaofeng smiled and stretched out three fingers to her, looking confident, "This is the upper limit, and it can't exceed this number at most." ”
She doesn't care if she wants this money to buy it or not, but she must take this mansion.
If she didn't force the pair of dog men and women into a desperate situation step by step, how could she get rid of the anger in her heart?
Moreover, the pain inflicted on her and her mother by Aunt Zhang's mother and daughter is not something that can be measured and liquidated simply by silver.
Hongying silently calculated for a while, and felt that the number of 30,000 was quite reasonable, as long as no other buyers showed up to rob her, the house would definitely be taken by the young lady in the end.
Since the young lady is determined to win this house, she will definitely not let that accident happen.
"Miss, if there are no other instructions, the slave will go down first."
Mu Xiaofeng nodded, "Well, you go, you can take care of the affairs of the house." ”
In a tavern, on a table in the corner, an ordinary-looking man with a pair of glittering eyes, "Brother Yan," he patted Yan or Shi on the shoulder in a friendly manner, "If you don't have this sincerity, then forget it." ”
"It's normal for a talent like you to look down on that position." Yan Qishi glanced at the hand on his shoulder, but did not say a word.
"But Brother Yan can't look down on it, and it may not be fragrant in the eyes of others."
Yan Qishi's brows furrowed very quickly, a cold light flashed in his eyes, he stared at the hand under the sleeve of the green shirt on his shoulder, and said with a smile, "Brother Zhou, where I say, if I am sincere, there must be sincerity, you wait, tomorrow at the latest, I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer." ”
At this end, Yan or Shi was forced to be tight, and when he returned home, he could naturally only press Mu Mingyue step by step.
"The low price is the low price, you will sell the house tomorrow, you can wait, others can't wait."
Mu Mingyue looked at his disapproving attitude, and felt panicked in her heart.
In a hurry, the price is already extremely low, and it will be even lower...... Didn't they lose all their money?
But Yan finished speaking, and didn't wait for her to react, just left the words and left.
When Mu Mingyue wanted to tell him to give him a two-day grace period, he only had time to see his cold and hard back.
Mu Mingyue sighed helplessly, and made an appointment with the buyer early the next morning to clear the delivery procedures.
Holding the silver ticket, Mu Mingyue's heart was empty and uncomfortable.
This house, she hasn't lived in the heat yet, and in a blink of an eye, it has become someone else's.
In order to save money, Mu Mingyue only found a small ordinary house to rent in a single courtyard, and most of the original servants were naturally dismissed.
Yan Qishi took 50,000 taels of silver tickets, and excitedly and nervously went to the agreed place to meet Brother Zhou, who called him a brother and a brother.
"Well, yes, I really didn't see the wrong person." The man quickly counted the silver tickets with his fingers, his face smiled like a flower, and he naturally didn't want money to pour out good words, "Brother Yan is really a cheerful person, sincere enough." ”
