Chapter 580: Speaking of the Cui family
Forget the machine building, Xue Rui came back from the office of Dali Temple, and when it was dark, Yu Shu and the others came back, and the two eyelids jumped in turn.
Just as he was about to go out to look for it, the man returned.
Standing under the corridor, looking at the two people who walked into the door with a smile and a smile, Xue Rui suddenly had a bad premonition.
After a cup of tea, after listening to the second daughter's "confession", this premonition became true - Jiang Huan really pulled Yu Shu to gamble.
"So, you two grabbed the money, beat people, and ran back?" Xue Rui supported his forehead.
He should have thought that these two people were not fuel-efficient lamps, and when they got together, how could they be peaceful.
"How can it be said to be robbing," Jiang Huan said unhappily: "This silver is what we rightfully won back, if it weren't for the gambling house wanting to repay the debt, I wouldn't be too lazy to teach a lesson, wouldn't I put the ready-made silver and not take it, but let people blackmail us?" ”
"What Wei Lan said is extreme, this money is not stolen and robbed, we deserve it, if she doesn't want to give it, won't she give it?"
Xue Rui turned his head to look at Yu Shu, who was talking to the helper, who was sitting on the tea table, counting the large silver bills that had been packed, looking at the silver nuggets piled up into a hill in front of her, and the corners of her mouth that reached the root of her ears revealed her mood.
Seeing her so happy, Xue Rui didn't want to blame her, but the other one couldn't be indulged.
"Is silver important, or is it people that matter?" Xue Rui straightened his face and said to Jiang Huan:
"You are not weak, you will not suffer if you really move with people, you can get out of the way, Ah Shu. Have you ever thought about her? If you always rely on a bit of force and whip people when you are unhappy, sooner or later you will affect the people around you. I advise you again, this is Anling, not your eldest brother's Ningdong City. ”
Listening to his cold reprimand, Jiang Huan's face turned black all of a sudden, and she wanted to refute his words, but she didn't know where to start, and she was blocked. I could only stare at him. Turned around and walked out of the living room.
Yu Shu saw Jiang Huan leave in a bad mood, and the action of counting money in his hand stopped, and said to Xue Rui:
"I don't blame her for this, she's here to help me get ahead. When fighting. It wasn't her first move, either. The eldest brother misunderstood her, what you said just now, you said a little heavy. ”
Xue Rui's face softened. Road:
"If I don't say it more seriously, she will get into trouble in a few days, you just met Jiang Huan, and you don't know who she is, she is a bully in Ningdong City, and no one dares to mess with her. Now that she has come to Anling, there is no restraint from King Dongjing, and no one can control her, and I don't know how presumptuous she will be. ”
As the baby daughter of the previous generation of King Dongjing, and the orphan sister of this generation of King Beijing, in Ningdong City, where Emperor Gao was far away that day, Jiang Huan never needed to look at anyone's face, compared to these pampered princesses and county lords in the capital, her pride and pampering were ten times better than a hundred times.
Yu Shu hasn't seen Jiang Huan's domineering and ferocious side yet, just because she is a bad-tempered and straight-hearted girl, she naturally doesn't understand Xue Rui's worries.
"Okay, okay, I've done it, and I'm going to investigate what it did, and I'm a little happy."
Yu Shu raised a stack of silver tickets in his hand, and said with a smile:
"Big brother knows how much money I made tonight?"
Xue Rui didn't want to ruin her interest, so he visually inspected a piece of white flowers on the table, sighed at her luck, and said, "I'm afraid there are one or two thousand." ”
Yu Shu shook his fingers and said proudly: "What's more." The ones I brought back tonight alone are almost 30,000 taels, and Cui Xin also sent me an IOU. ”
As she spoke, she showed Xue Rui the IOU that Shun had returned, which was still covered with Cui Xin's finger prints.
Xue Rui was speechless when he saw such a thing. For Yu Shu's villain behavior of fishing in troubled waters, neither is he angry, nor is he laughing.
"Are you going to take this IOU and go to Cui's house to ask for money?" Xue Rui shook his head, "If I were you, I wouldn't do this." ”
"Why? Do you want to say that the Cui family will not admit it, and I can't get this money? ”
Xue Rui didn't explain directly, but examined her: "You are going to Si Tianjian to take office, and you won't even know anything about your bosses." ”
"That's not it," Yu Shu stretched out his fingers and counted:
"The big mention point is the eldest son of the Zhu family, and below him, the young eunuch Ren Qiming is a member of the Ren family, and he is the eldest son-in-law of Uncle Zhongyong. Coming down again, Jingchen needless to say, Lord Cao, the left commander who is half a level higher than him, is the grandfather of the deceased Cao Youling, the Cao family. The left judge is Xin Ya, I have also seen this person, and the right judge was Ji Huaishan, but he died. ”
One point, one less, two orders and two sentences, these seven people are in charge of the three divisions and two bureaus of Si Tianjian, and their rights cannot be underestimated.
"It seems that you have done your homework," Xue Rui smiled, "It's just not careful enough, Ji Huaishan is dead, and the position of the right judge has been vacant, but the Astronomical Bureau, which was originally in charge of him, has been handed over to the deputy chief since his death, and he is the star envoy master of ceremonies like you, and this master of ceremonies is the eldest master of the Cui family, Cui Xiuyi." ”
"Star Envoy Master of Ceremonies?" Yu Shu didn't know much about Si Tianjian's many official positions, and he had heard of this position for the first time.
"Yes, this Cui Xiu is the father of Cui Xin. Speaking of things in their house, it is worth talking about, Cui Taigong, the head of the Cui family, once served as an academician of Taishi Shuyuan, and later retired due to illness, Cui Xiuyi is his eldest son, but unfortunately he is a concubine, and Cui Taigong's wife was one step late to give birth to the second master, Cui Min. ”
"But this Mrs. Yuan died within a few years, and Mrs. Cui later renewed a wife, but nothing came out. The two masters of the Cui family are not harmonious, and Mrs. Cui prefers the second son who has no mother, and snubs the eldest son everywhere. ”
"Fortunately, Cui Xiuyi was competitive in his early years, and he was admitted to Dayan, and gradually sat in today's position, and the second master, Yi Xue, is not outstanding, just because Cui Taigong is partial, he handed over the business of Da Yi Hall and the gambling house to him, so although the big house is located in Si Tianjian, it is actually in the house, and it depends on the face of the second room."
"Why did Cui Xin such a young lady of a family, take her to the Xiangwang Mansion when she was an infant, and said that it was the princess of Xiang who wanted to raise more daughters, but she didn't take her seriously, she accompanied Xiwen all day long, took care of her daily life, and was only one stronger than the maid, is Cui Xiuyi really willing to take her daughter to cling to the powerful? It's not their second room that is getting in the way. ”
Yu Shu listened to Xue Rui finish talking about the Cui family's family affairs, supported his chin with both hands, and thought in his eyes:
"No wonder Cui Xin said that she couldn't be the master, and refused to give me the gambling money directly, because she was afraid that her second uncle would catch her."
Thinking about it, she suddenly raised her head and asked Xue Rui:
"Does the eldest brother know the spiritual words of the Cui family?"
Xue Rui nodded, he had been the eldest son of the Xue family for more than ten years, and he didn't know what was rare in this Anling City.
"I'm strange, such a powerful family heirloom should be passed on to men and not to women, and to pass on to grandchildren, so why did Cui Xin learn it?" (To be continued......)
