Chapter 162: Deliberation
"Jade Lock? Did your grandfather really lose three hundred taels of silver? Not thirty taels? Lin Guilu's voice rose uncontrollably. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ ο½ο½ο½ο½
"Dad, what Yusuo said is true?" Lin Guifu looked at Old Man Lin in disbelief.
Old Man Lin nodded cautiously, but he was relieved in his heart, and finally said it. No matter how I say it, I'm also their old man, and they don't dare to do anything to themselves. It's okay, it's okay, just endure these few days, he comforted himself.
Lin Guixi almost fainted when he heard three hundred taels.
"Dad, tell me what's going on? Okay, what are you gambling for? And Yusuo, when your grandfather came to you, you didn't take good care of him, and actually let him gamble for money? Now it's okay to break the sky, and the big guys are unlucky. β
Lin Yusuo knew that no one could stand the news as soon as it came out, but what he didn't expect was that the third uncle actually put the blame on him, blaming him for not taking good care of the old man.
"Third uncle, can you rely on me for this? What do you think I'm doing in Yangzhou? What about being a young master? I don't have to do anything, I play with my grandfather every day. Why didn't you bring Grandpa back? Now it's up to me if something happens. "Lin Yusuo has always been the youngest in the family, his parents are used to it, and his elder sister lets him, and now his third uncle has planted all the things that his grandfather owes three hundred taels of gambling debts to him, where will he admit it?
Lin Guifu rubbed his heart, as soon as he heard the news, he panicked in his heart, and felt that he couldn't get out of his anger. The third brother and his nephew quarreled here again, and his head was buzzing.
"Okay, don't argue, Dad, tell me what's going on." Lin Guifu waved his hand to make everyone stop.
Old Man Lin is also single, things have come to this point, and it's not a matter of hiding it, so it's better to say it happily. So he told him how he met those two, how he gambled, and how he won and lost.
By the time Old Man Lin finished speaking, his three sons were already paralyzed on the ground and couldn't get up. Oh my God, how can there be a father who does this? Don't mention the days when the three brothers were young, they grew up hungry and full, and now they are about to become grandfathers. Seeing that the life of the three families is getting better and better, who knew that the father of this pit actually owed three hundred and twenty-eight taels of gambling debts.
The boss Lin Gui was trembling with anger, and pointed at Old Man Lin with his finger, "You, you-" didn't say anything for a long time.
Lin Guixi sat on the ground and easily eased up, he pointed at Old Man Lin and said, "Have you done this?" If you don't help your children and grandchildren, you still come to harm us. We don't have a dad like you. Go and tell others that you don't have a son, and that you can pay your own debts. More than 300 taels of silver, you are really fat enough, and it is not enough to pay back if you sell my family. β
Lin Guilu silently calculated in his heart how much silver he still had at home, and the current silver was only one hundred and eighty taels. In normal times, this silver is enough to do a lot of things, but it is still a lot short of three hundred taels. His own family is just this silver, let alone the eldest child's family.
Do you really want to sell your property? Lin Guilu glanced at the brick kiln behind him, this kiln was almost impossible to keep, and he had to sell the land or house if he sold the kiln.
Lin Guifu sighed and said, "Dad, you owe so much money to the casino, how can people let you come back?" β
Old man Lin said with a slumped face: "I told them all the addresses, and Yujuan is in Yangzhou, I guess they have someone watching." β
Lin Guilu couldn't hold back anymore when he heard Lin Yujuan's anger: "Look at what your grandfather did?" My Xiaojuan, she is unlucky enough, how can she be a grandfather like you. β
Old man Lin didn't dare to say anything after being reprimanded, he had already been mentally prepared for this.
Lin Yusuo couldn't bear to see his father in a hurry like this, "Dad, it's okay, don't worry about my sister." As long as the people in the casino can receive the money on time, they won't do anything to my sister. β
"Hey-" Lin Guilu sighed and said, "Let's go, let's go to the eldest brother's house to discuss what to do." β
A group of several people walked towards the village, all of them dejected.
Old Man Lin returned to his home, and the three brothers gathered at the eldest Lin Guifu's house. Yusuo and Li Dajiang also followed.
When the eldest aunt Zhang heard that the brother was talking about selling the kiln, it was not enough, and it was not enough for the second family to take out a hundred taels. After asking carefully what was going on, it was actually the dashing old man Lin who went to Yangzhou who owed more than 300 taels of silver in gambling debts.
This hit her hard, in the past two years, the three brothers have burned the kiln together, and they have earned about thirty taels a year. But no matter how much you save, it still costs money, especially the eldest daughter, who has been married for several years and has not been able to conceive, and it has cost a lot of money to find a doctor and take medicine, but there is no good news at all.
The second family has already made a small half, and there are more than 100 taels of silver left, and the two brothers can't take out the silver even if they divide it evenly.
Lin Guixi looked at Lin Guilu and said, "Second brother, I can't get any money at home, and at most I can make up more than twenty taels, so you can't ask me to sell my land, right?" Of the three brothers, your family is the richest, or you can sell a few acres of landβ"
Lin Guilu is the richest of the three brothers, his yard in the town is worth more than 100 taels, and his kimchi shop also has an income of dozens of taels a year, not to mention more than 20 acres of paddy fields. Even in this brick kiln, he gets the most money every year, and his family is the richest, so he should bleed more.
Lin Guilu didn't blame the brothers for having this idea, he really forced them to share the debts equally, and they couldn't come up with the money. Forget it, who let his own father get into trouble.
Lin Guilu thought of this and said: "At the beginning, we spent eighty taels to buy this kiln, although the price of this kiln has risen a little now, but we are in a hurry. It is estimated that it is still eighty or ninety taels when I get it. I have calculated, and each of you will take out forty taels, and the silver for the sale of the kiln will be one hundred and sixty taels. I'll make up the remaining one hundred and seventy taels. β
"Second brother, for forty taels of silver, my family not only wiped out the family's funds, but also sold those acres of paddy fields. In the future, there will be no kiln and no land, how will my family live, and you still have two nephews who are not married. Lin Guixi was anxious.
"Third brother--you're going too far!" The boss Lin Guifu couldn't look at it.
"Little brother, one hundred and seventy taels of silver, I have to sell a lot of paddy fields to make up enough. You touch your conscience and speak, your brother and I are richer than you, but how much silver do I give out of the shares in the kiln? β
