Chapter Fifty-Eight: Qian Zhuang
In fact, this Gu Ma is just playing the role of a thug, so Wen Jing doesn't want to embarrass her too much, I'm afraid that this Gu Ma has already suffered a lot of anger in front of other little ladies.
Closing the door, Aoyagi said softly, "Lady, where are you going to get that money?" ”
"Come with me to Wantong Bank." Wen Jing said lightly.
Aoyagi was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect Wen Jing to use the money so quickly, at that time, the lady explained that it was to be left for Wen Jing as a dowry, if it was discovered by the Liu family, it would be worth the loss.
"I have my own way, more than three thousand taels is not a small amount, even if I take all the belongings in my hand, I can't make up so much silver, rest assured, I will definitely let her return this money in the future, and I also want to see what my mother left me." Wen Jing looked out the window and said, although she had never seen Mrs. Wen before, after listening to what Qingliu said, she respected her very much in her heart, and by the way, she also wanted to see what Mrs. Wen left to herself, which was worthy of Liu's coveting for so many years, and it was good to plan in the future.
Aoyagi nodded emphatically, changed Wen Jing's clothes, covered the curtain, and when the two walked outside the garden, they saw He Ma coming over.
"Where are you going, Seventh Lady?" He Ma asked with a smile.
"Go to the market and buy something." Wen Jing glanced at it.
Mother He's eyes trembled twice and said, "It's not peaceful outside recently, and it's better for the Seventh Lady to go out less." ”
"That's what Mama He said." After Wen Jing finished speaking, he took Aoyagi and left.
Mother He snorted coldly, what kind of majesty does she have, whether she is good or bad in the second half of her life. Don't you have to look at the housewife, you will feel good in the future.
"Lady. It looks like someone is following us behind. Aoyagi whispered.
"Don't look back, let him follow." Wen Jing said.
"Yes." Aoyagi replied softly.
The two got into the carriage.
"It seems to be the little sixth son in the house." Aoyagi said to Wen Jing.
The car stopped at the entrance of the Silk Village. Aoyagi helped Wen Jing down, and the two entered the silk village together.
"He followed." Aoyagi whispered.
At the door, a man with green bean eyes looked inside a few times and then retracted his head.
"Shopkeeper, the man at the door has been following us for a long time, can you let us leave through the back door?" Aoyagi whispered to the boss while carrying the cloth.
The shopkeeper looked at the door suspiciously, and sure enough, he saw a man looking this way, and as soon as he saw the shopkeeper, he immediately shrank back.
"Second son, take this girl to measure the size." The shopkeeper shouted at a fellow.
Wen Jing and Aoyagi followed their men out the back door and got into another carriage.
"Lady. He didn't come back. Aoyagi smiled.
"That's fine."
The carriage stopped, and the two of them got down and walked a short distance, and finally arrived at the door of Wantong Bank.
I saw a dilapidated money village in front of me, the handwriting on the plaque was mottled, if you didn't pay attention to it, you couldn't see the four words Wantong money bank, Wen Jing thought it would be a big money bank, but he never thought that this Wantong money village would be so dilapidated.
"The two guest officers want to save money?" A guy asked.
"Call your shopkeeper." Aoyagi said to the guy.
The guy hesitated, then walked in and said, "Shopkeeper Hu." These two girls want to see you. ”
The curtain was lifted, and an old man with reading glasses and a gray beard came out.
Shopkeeper Hu looked at Wen Jing and Qingliu and said, "Please two inside." ”
"Are you Hu Yuxian Hu of Wantong Bank?"
"The old man is his younger brother Hu Yuhai, and my eldest brother has passed away a long time ago." Hu shopkeeper said.
Aoyagi nodded at Wen Jing.
Wen Jing took the ivory key that Aoyagi gave her from her neck and handed it to the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper was in tears when he saw it, and his hands trembled and he held the key. He knelt down and muttered to himself, "It's been more than ten years." I was looking forward to seeing this key again every day, and finally let me wait for it in my lifetime. ”
Wen Jing looked at Shopkeeper Hu in surprise. Did he get the wrong person?
"Do you recognize me?"
Shopkeeper Hu shook his head and said: "Although the old man has never seen the seventh lady, but he will never forget the biological mother of the seventh lady until death. ”
"Seventh lady, please come with me." Shopkeeper Hu noticed his gaffe and wiped his tears.
"There's a shopkeeper of Laohu." Wen Jing said.
"You are seven points similar to your mother, but your eyebrows are a little more manly and less delicate than Chu Sanniang back then." Hu shopkeeper said.
Wen Jing circled the corners of his mouth, this shopkeeper turned out to be an old acquaintance with Mrs. Wen.
The three of them walked into a room, and there were many large cabinets neatly placed in the room, and the cabinets were covered with dust, and each cabinet had a mechanism embedded in it.
"Seven Lady, you just need to insert the key into it, and the old man will come out of the hall first to wait for you." After the shopkeeper finished speaking, he walked out.
Wen Jing carefully inserted the key in, then turned it a few times, only to hear the sound of the spring inside.
The cabinet was open, and there were many compartments inside, and although the outside of the cabinet was full of dust, there was not a single trace of dust inside.
Wen Jing casually pulled out a lattice, and found that it was full of gold leaves, and then pulled out all the lattices one by one, and found that it was either gold or jade, and the last lattice was very light, and Wen Jing pulled it out with a gentle pull.
Inside is a stack of title deeds, as well as IOUs, etc., compared to those hard currency, the value of this stack of "paper" is more objective, Wen Jing was stunned for a moment, she has never had any concept of money, but she can see that the total value of everything here will be a huge amount of money, no wonder Mrs. Wen has been thinking about it for so many years, I'm afraid she can't imagine that Mrs. Wen is not in the Wen Mansion, but in such an inconspicuous bank.
Wen Jing took some gold ingots, gold leaves, and antique-like things and handed them to Aoyagi, and then locked the cabinet as it was.
When Shopkeeper Hu saw Wen Jing come out, he locked the door again.
"Shopkeeper Hu, why is this money bank running so far?" Wen Jing couldn't help but ask.
Shopkeeper Hu sighed and said, "It's all because the old man is not good at business, and he loses money every year, so he fell into such a field, if it wasn't for your mother who put something in me, I would have closed the door a long time ago." ”
Aoyagi couldn't help but be speechless, fortunately they came early, if it was a few years later, I'm afraid that this Wantong Money Village would have ceased to exist, where to find it when the time comes.
"Thank you Shopkeeper Hu for keeping his promises, otherwise my mother's relics may fall into the hands of the wicked." Wen Jing said sincerely.
"This is what the old man should do, the seventh lady doesn't need to mind, I'll send you away." Shopkeeper Hu called the guy.
"He is a grandson Hu Yu, you can rest assured."
Hu Yu smiled honestly, brought a donkey cart, Wen Jing thanked the shopkeeper Hu again, and got into the car with Qingliu. (To be continued......)
