The second floor of the study.

Wu Shunde squatted on the ground, looking sad and crying.

"Uncle, what's so anxious?" Mu Yunting looked at Wu Shunde expressionlessly, for this uncle, he was not only disgusted, but also disgusted, he had been helped by the Hou Mansion for so many years for no reason, not only did he not know how to make progress for himself, but he was idle all day long, and now he was embarrassed to come to him!

"Brother Yuan, a few days ago, my uncle went to Youzhou with someone to do a business, and he made a small profit, thinking that he would come back empty-handed, so he brought some jade wrenches back from there, and wanted to go back to the capital to sell, who knows, just out of Youzhou, he was robbed by someone with silver." Wu Shunde patted his thigh and said angrily, "At that time, I reported your name and said that I was the uncle of your general director, Mu Yunting, and you dared to rob it?" Who knows, but they are ashamed to say what Mu Yunting is, are we still afraid that he will not succeed, it is you who robbed him, so Brother Yuan, you have to take care of this matter, you have to let them know that you know your name, and you can deter those robbers. ”

The corners of Mu Yunting's mouth twitched: "Uncle, is that the matter?" ”

"That's right!" Wu Shunde was stunned for a moment and said, "You see that we were robbed near Youzhou, Yu Gong is the chief director over there, and Yu Zhi is your uncle, so you have to send someone to catch those robbers and ask for my goods back." ”

"Uncle Shicai said that he partnered with others, is it with my second uncle?" Mu Yuntingyun asked lightly.

Why didn't Shicai hear the second uncle mention this matter?

"Yes, he contributed the money, and I contributed my efforts, and we made fifty-five cents of the money." Wu Shunde nodded hurriedly, said, and stepped forward again and said with a smile, "You see that we are all the elders of your relatives, so you have to find a way to get this batch of goods back for us quickly, those people who went to Youzhou with us to enter the fingers, the goods on hand were sold out, and they made a lot of money, but poor me and your second uncle, we lost a good opportunity to make money in vain." ”

"Okay, I got the idea." Mu Yunting glanced at him, pinched his brows, got up and said, "Recently, Jingyou and Jingyou have been in a lot of chaos, it's better for uncle not to go over there, if you really have the heart to do business, just go around a few states in the mainland, since your uncle is here, let's go to Hexiangyuan to see the two cousins!" I still have something to do, so I won't accompany my uncle, I'll let the kitchen cook some food and send it over later, and my uncle will accompany the two cousins! ”

Wu Shunde saw that Mu Yunting was leaving, so he hurriedly blocked in front of him and said, "Your two cousins eat well here, live well, and you cover them, so I won't go to see them, I still have something to do at night, so I won't stay to eat!" As he spoke, he frowned and said, "You see that I don't have any money on hand now, you see, do you want to help your uncle, don't worry, when your uncle earns money, he will definitely pay it back to you." ”

Mu Yunting touched his cuffs, the silver tickets inside had been used up, so he raised his eyebrows and said: "Now my wife is in charge of the treasury, I will tell her later, let her get you some silver to save the emergency first, remember that you have to do business as if you were doing business, don't do something unreliable." ”

When Wu Shunde heard this, he quietly glanced at Mu Yunting, and saw that his expression was indifferent, not like he was lying, so he had to nod and respond: "Then, then I'll wait here, and it won't take much, five thousand taels of silver will be about the same!" ”

"Then you just wait!" Mu Yunting lifted the curtain and entered the bathroom, washed up, and then walked out of the study, and went to the inner garden with relaxed steps.

Meals have already been prepared.

Bamboo porridge is bubbling with an enticing aroma.

The two looked at each other and smiled, held hands, and sat down to eat.

Mu Yunting mentioned Wu Shunde's borrowing of money.

When Shen Qingli heard that Wu Shunde also came to borrow money, he suddenly felt that his head was bigger, and he refused without thinking: "How can we have so much silver to borrow?" No! ”

"No?" Mu Yunting looked at her suspiciously, and asked, "Can't you even take out such a little bit of silver in the warehouse?" ”

Although he didn't have an accurate count of the silver in the treasury, he couldn't even take out five thousand taels of silver, right?

"Shizi." Shen Qingli scooped a spoonful of porridge for him, and said seriously, "You went to the second uncle just now, did the second uncle borrow money from you?" ”

Mu Yunting nodded: "He said to borrow five thousand taels." ”

"But he asked me to borrow 10,000 taels, but I didn't agree." Shen Qingli told Mu Changfeng the truth about borrowing money, and said, "Shizi, we can't borrow this money, a few days ago, when we were in Jingzhou, Ah Qi accidentally heard that the Guogong Mansion sent someone to visit our treasury, saying that the Guogong Mansion intends to link you with the Canglang Society, if they know that we have a lot of silver in our hands, it is inevitable that they will not fabricate a crime and detain you on your head, and when the time comes, you will not be able to tell." ”

Mu Yunting's face was slightly gloomy, pondered for a moment, and said, "How much silver is there in the treasury now?" ”

"Less than five thousand taels." Shen Qingli said calmly.

"Where's the silver?" Less than five thousand taels? Are you kidding!

"It's all spent." Shen Qingli couldn't help but smile and said with a clear eye, "A lot of silver was spent on the pear orchard in Nan alone, plus you rewarded your subordinates a few days ago, and now there are some calligraphy and painting antiques left in the warehouse, if there is a big expense, you have to sell calligraphy and painting antiques." ”

She wanted to see if the man had counted the money in the treasury!

"Also, it costs a lot of money on the pear orchard in Nannan." Mu Yunting immediately became embarrassed, "Since we don't have so much silver on hand, then Uncle will give him less!" After all, it was an open mouth. ”

Fainted, he actually believed.

"Don't worry, I'll deal with this matter." Shen Qingli smiled, put down his chopsticks, put on his shoes and got off the kang, and went to the coat room, where Taozhi was feeding Kexin to eat, and when he saw Shen Qingli coming in, he hurriedly got up and said, "Young lady." ”

Shen Qingli took the bowl in her hand, and instructed with a faint expression: "You go to the treasury to get a silver ticket of five hundred taels of silver, and send it to the study to give it to your uncle." ”

The peach branch retreated.

Wu Shunde took the silver ticket and was stunned, didn't he say five thousand taels?

How did it become five hundred taels?

He looked at Taozhi hesitantly and asked, "Girl, are you sure that your master asked you to send five hundred taels, not five thousand taels?" ”

"Uncle, the young lady just asked the slave to send so much." Momozhi said calmly.

Wu Shunde's face sank, pinched the silver ticket and walked out of the study, and went straight into the inner garden.

Five hundred taels, send the people who want to eat!

Ah Hua stopped at the door and wouldn't let him in.

Angry, Wu Shunde stomped his feet and shouted loudly: "Brother Yuan, come out and see, how your daughter-in-law treats her uncle, if it weren't for my poor sister being gone, would it be her turn to be the master of the house?" ”R1152
