Eighty-Seven: Secret
Speaking of this, the three people present all closed their mouths, looking preoccupied. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
The little guys outside are constantly coming and going, and they are all busy arranging things for the New Year, and those decorations are all flowing silver......
Second Master Li raised his eyelids: "Speaking of which, it's all to blame on my mother, if she hadn't had to say that she had to buy land, 150,000 taels of silver wouldn't have been wasted, it would be 150,000 taels of silver!" Now that the two nieces are getting married, the dowry given by the man is not low, why don't we go back? If you want to get it back, it will cost 20,000 taels of silver, not to mention that two girls will have to ask for 20,000 taels of silver, and my two boys will also marry a daughter-in-law...... What a mess! ”
Old lady Li and Master Li were both shocked when they heard the word buy land, but the scolding that was originally about to be exported was not able to be said after Second Master Li said those words next.
What Second Master Li said is not wrong, they really need money everywhere in their family.
Just the marriage of Master Li's two daughters cost nearly 20,000 taels, which is still a lot, and fortunately, the banquet is made by the man.
When it was time for the son of Master Li and Second Master Li to marry a daughter-in-law, it would be really embarrassing----- but the daughters-in-law they married were not rich in dowry, so they couldn't help much.
Under such heavy pressure, Mrs. Li is even poorer than when he was a teacher and a scholar before, and he can save money on ordinary expenses, but even so, he can't save much money, and he can hardly afford the expenses at home.
If we hadn't been greedy for profit and hadn't bought the land and private property of unknown origin, we wouldn't have come to this point.
Mrs. Li felt that Mrs. Li was really a mourning star, and the daughter she taught offended the Song family like that, and she also lost all the money in the family......
"Next year, the money for the temple will be halved." He flipped through the ledger on the table and felt bored: "Otherwise, the two daughters-in-law will go out to socialize and usher in these people who are sent to the world." ”
Thinking about it this way, although he may not be able to be the official of the grandson, he can still exchange some silver in the end, and he finally has some comfort in his heart.
Second Master Li obviously thought the same way, sighed and looked at his father and then at his eldest brother: "Seeing that the New Year is coming, just giving gifts is a big item, but fortunately, the dividends outside the customs are almost here." ”
Old lady Li threw the account book in her hand on the table with a smile, and turned her head to look at him: "So since the prince wants us to take care of Xiaoba, do you dare to do it?" ”
Master Li rubbed his eyebrows: "We just went to hit a wall today, and I'm afraid it will be in vain to go again." However, my daughter-in-law went back, and the eldest lady was polite to her, so it was better to ask them to try it. ”
Old lady Li nodded: "That's it, let your daughter-in-law take the time to prepare a few gifts in a few days and go again." It's naturally best to see people. ”
If the business outside the gate was not carried out without Song Chuning's help, they would not be able to do it, to a certain extent, Song Chuning's usefulness was really greater than that of his two sons combined, and he also hoped that with Song Chuning, he could lead the line of Duanwang more steadily.
As for the old lady Li who cultivated in the temple, since she said that she had repaired the Qing Dynasty, she should naturally be more difficult, otherwise how could she really reflect on her mistakes and wash away her injustices as soon as possible?
At this point, they lost all 150,000 taels of silver, and their Li family was worthy of her, and there was no reason to spend money for her.
The enthusiasm of the Li family still surprised the people of the Song family, and according to their thoughts, they also thought that they should stop after just touching the wall once or twice.
But looking at the degree of nervousness and attention they have, it is obviously a little abnormal.
Old Lady Li is not like a person who values his daughter and granddaughter like Old Lady Li, how could he have to take the risk of offending the Song family when he knew the bottom line of the Song family, and came to see Song Chuning again and again?
Master Song thought about it for a long time and felt that he couldn't figure it out, so he put it aside----- he was already busy with Song Yi's affairs recently.
He went to the Criminal Department to inquire about the news, and learned that this time Yin Zhengde's impeachment recital was written with reasonable evidence, and all the criminal evidence listed could be found in person, material, and material.
However, Song Yi said that he had paid the money but could not come up with evidence----- he did not go through the tooth shop, and he did not even find an acquaintance introducer, and directly contacted the family who wanted to sell the land, and the family bit it to death and refused to admit that he had received Song Yi's money.
And the Changsha outsider also said that his daughter had already decided to be a family, but she was forced to leave by Song Yi, and finally committed suicide in anger.
Together, these two crimes are not minor crimes, even if they are appointed by the imperial court.
Mrs. Song saw his depression, and tried her best to talk about the happy thing: "You don't have to be too anxious, the old lady and Xiaoyi came back for a while...... Anyway, when they come back, we'll finally have someone to talk to. ”
Master Song nodded, took the ginseng tea handed by the eldest lady and took a sip, feeling that he had been a little anxious recently because of these successive things: "Speaking of which, this time there is also the young master of the Guo family who came back together, he helped a lot in Qingzhou, and this time he helped to transport furniture and wood back, and we should also entertain well when the time comes." ”
The eldest lady stood behind him and pressed his neck for him, and her tone was relaxed: "You don't have to worry about this, I know everything." and Mingzi, she has suffered a lot this time, and she will live at home for a long time in the future. Tomorrow I will ask Mama Jin to clean and decorate another Tingchamps in the garden so that she can live there. ”
Speaking of this, Master Song was in a worse mood, and the ginseng tea in his hand was casually placed on the table next to him, and he was stunned for a long time, and only after a long time did he grit his teeth and sneer: "As soon as you said this, I remembered that Xiang Yunzhang was also going to be escorted to Beijing for trial, he always thought that he could live better without our family and be promoted faster." This time, I'll see what will happen to him! ”
After saying this, Master Song instructed the eldest lady again: "Since the old lady has written to explain what you should do, you should do what the old lady said." When the second child had an accident, I thought privately that I always felt that it had nothing to do with her, and I didn't know what would happen to her if it dragged on for a few more days. ”
No one is more concerned about this matter than Mrs. Song, since Song Jue's incident, she has avoided Song Chuning like a snake and scorpion, and now that Song Guifei and Mrs. Song have given out their meaning, she will naturally not be soft, and nodded without hesitation when she heard this: "Mamma is feeding her medicine today today, I'm afraid I won't have the strength to make a fuss."
