There was silence in the courtyard.

In the next moment, Feng Guanlan suddenly jumped up and shouted:

"The eyes of the Immortal Board! I didn't even agree, you promised a fart?! How old is you old woman in the house?! ”

Xie Jinci was shocked.

Her uncle, I heard that he grew up in the military camp since he was a child, and he was manic and irritable, and he once beat Wenchen in front of the emperor, but he didn't expect to be so arrogant in the house!

But why would she be tempted to applaud him?

The old lady was sprayed with saliva all over her face, and immediately fell to the ground crying, "Ouch hey, I don't live anymore!" Everyone, come and comment, the dignified Shenwu general has bullied his wife! Although I am a continuation, I am also a normal room and a mother-in-law! Master, why haven't you woken up yet! Pity our mother and son being bullied by your son, I can't live this life! ”

Xie Jinci looked at her quietly.

Although the old lady is over sixty years old, her body is tough, and she is full of breath when she howls in her throat, and her voice is so loud that everyone next door can hear it.

Although the saint ruled the country with force, he also attached great importance to filial piety.

If she howls again, the official will definitely participate in the uncle's unfilial piety.

The girl's eyes crossed the cold light, and she suddenly pressed the corner of her eyes with a handkerchief, and said with a crying voice:

"When I was paraded through the streets today, I saw my grandmother's example. He is over half a hundred taels of temples, and his grandmother accepted the dowry and asked me to marry a man who is older than my uncle, and I should be crying! ”

"What?!" Feng Guanlan was shocked, "That Bangyan is actually an old man?!" ”

Xie Jinci nodded aggrievedly, "I expected that my family was rich and wealthy, and the dowry gift was very generous, so I asked my grandmother to nod and agree." Uncle, isn't our family very poor, otherwise why would my grandmother betray her granddaughter? In the past, when I was in the Shen family, my grandmother would never exchange her granddaughter's marriage for money. ”

Feng Guanlan's face was dark.

He spent more time in the barracks, and all the housekeeping power was handed over to this stepmother, and he never asked.

But now it seems that this family is being run in a miasma, and the pearl of the dignified Sima Mansion has to worry about whether the money in the family is enough.

The man raised his beard and said in a voice like a bell: "The words have grown up, and I heard that I have also gone to the academy to study, so it can be seen that there is ink in my stomach." From now on, my mother doesn't have to take care of the feed, and the money in the house should be spent on it, and my heart and liver will be in charge! ”

The old lady who was howling at the top of her throat suddenly couldn't howl.

She crawled to her feet, "What are you talking about?!" ”

Feng Guanlan stared at her coldly, "Come on, go and move all the account books and keys in the warehouse to Yanghe Courtyard!" ”

He is decisive and resolute.

The dozens of soldiers serving him immediately sprang into action, pushing all the delicate maids who tried to stop them to the ground.

The old lady was dumbfounded.

When she saw that the group of soldiers had really moved all the account books to Yanghe Courtyard, she panicked, and hurriedly said: "Boss, I was just joking, Bangyan is so old, how can I marry my granddaughter to him?" ”

Feng Guanlan really didn't want to deal with her.

Seeing that he was impatient, the old lady hurriedly turned to Xie Jinci again, and the old face turned into a flower, "Words, grandmother is really just joking!" You're too small a girl to even make jokes? ”

Xie Jinci was indifferent, "It's not that I can't make jokes, it's just that there are some jokes, and I can't make them." As an old lady of Sima Mansion, my grandmother should be dignified and dignified, and let outsiders see that you just rolled around, and they want to laugh at you. ”

The old lady gritted her teeth with hatred.

made a fuss today, not only did he not marry Xie Jinci, but he even lost the power of the housekeeper.

She took the people in the second and third rooms, and left with a black face and sleeves.

The night is getting deeper.

Xie Jinci and Feng Guanlan sat under the eaves, and the man sighed a little, "I thought it would be a good thing for Ci'er to go home, but I didn't expect you to suffer such a big grievance." ”

Xie Jinci rolled up his sleeves and poured him a glass of wine, "My grandmother's words and deeds are inappropriate, and I don't know what earth-shattering things I will do in the future." I have a word that I don't know whether to say or not. ”

"It's okay to say it."

"I thought it would be better to split up. If my grandmother wanted to continue with her uncle, she would let her follow. If she doesn't want to, let her live with her two uncles. In this way, it is expected that she will not be able to toss any moths. ”

Feng Guanlan was very hesitant.

After a long time, he said softly: "I always think that the reunion of the family is the most important thing. Although your two little uncles are mediocre, they are also decent and have never betrayed the Feng family. Split up, or wait. ”

He touched Xie Jinci's little head, "As for Xie Wanzheng, she has been raising her by my side for so many years, and she has indeed developed feelings." In addition, she is now the crown prince's concubine and will marry into the East Palace in the future. You and her, you have to be friendly, don't you understand? ”

Xie Jinci looked at the wind and looked at the other party's eyes.

She said lightly: "What if she doesn't want to be friendly with me?" ”

Feng Guanlan's eyes sank, "Uncle can lift her up to the clouds, and he can also let her fall into the mud." Sima Mansion, the real daughter is you. ”

Xie Jinci smiled, "Thank you, uncle." ”

Sending Feng Guanlan back to the front yard, Xie Jinci sat alone in the embroidery building, and ordered Libai to light more candles.

She looked through the account book in the house, and the more she looked at it, the more frightened she became.

The dignified Sima Mansion, the home of the powerful for hundreds of years, has no savings in the mansion!

The uncle's annual reward and monthly income are all spent!

The clothes and jewelry of the female dependents, the monthly money of the maidservants, the silver used in the second and third rooms to be used in the officialdom, the silver money used by the female dependents in the house to subsidize their own mother's family, and the expenses of the elder brother in the casino brothel are all huge!

She closed the ledger, and her white fingertips couldn't help but tremble.

Libai added a few lights, "Miss? ”

Xie Jinci gritted his teeth silently, and opened the wooden box containing the title deed of the shop.

There was a thick pile of contracts in the box, and she flipped through them roughly, but none of them were shop title deeds, but all of them were owed by Lufeng Qianzhuang!

She calculated in her mind, the total amount of these IOUs was as much as 700,000 taels of silver, and what was even more terrifying was that the rolling interest was as high as 100,000 taels!

The dignified Sima Mansion, the premier Zhong Ming Ding Food House in the capital city, actually owed Qian Zhuang 800,000 taels of snowflake silver!

It's all owed in the last few years!

And in the column of the debtor, it is her uncle's name that is written!

But she didn't believe that it was the eldest uncle who borrowed the money, it must have been the old lady who acted as a demon, and used the eldest uncle's carelessness to trick the eldest uncle's name and handprint!

Lufeng Money Village is a big money bank, and it is very disciplined to do business, and it is definitely impossible to rely on the debt, and there is no situation of deceiving the borrower.

Sima Mansion really owes Qian Zhuang 800,000 taels of snowflake silver!

"Bang!"

Xie Jinci swept down the wooden box suddenly!

She held the bookcase with both hands, and because of her anger, the green tendons on the back of her white hands protruded!

Li Bai picked up the arrears and wooden boxes scattered on the ground, and was also terrified, "General Shenwu has military power and high power, what do you want, how can you owe so much money?" Could it be that the old lady did a good deed? ”

Xie Jinci sat down again, covering his eyes with one hand, "I used to think that it was best for a family to be reunited, but there are people who treat her as a family member, but she does things that are not as good as animals." Eight hundred thousand taels of silver, huh. ”

Even if she took out the 300,000 taels of silver tickets that Shen Teng gave her to fill the hole, it was far from enough!

Xie Jinci closed his eyes.

She was suddenly a little glad that she had returned to Shangjing.

Because simple people like the eldest uncle and brother can't fight the old lady at all!

My grandfather can't wake up from a deep sleep, and this family needs her Xie Jinci to support!

The lonely lamp is like a bean.

Tonight, the girl is destined to have trouble sleeping.

is also sleepless, as well as Shen Changfeng.

Unlike those who needed to stay in an inn, he had a lot of money, so he bought a small courtyard house on Suzaku Street.

When the moon was in the sky, he was standing under the eaves, lazily draped in embroidered silver cranes and looking at Lan Dayu, and was smoking leisurely.

For him, being admitted to the top prize is just the first step into officialdom, and it does not satisfy his ambitions, so there is really nothing to be happy about.

While he was thinking about life, Hua Pian came uninvited.

The owner of the most prestigious Golden Scale Terrace in the South of the Yangtze River, with dew on his shoulders, scolded when he stepped in: "Shen Changfeng, you did a good thing!" ”

She didn't even shout the young master.

Shen Changfeng smiled, "Yo, what a rare guest!" Sister pity, don't you marry my eldest brother in Jiangnan, what are you doing in Beijing? ”

"What are you doing in Shangjing?! Of course, it's to settle accounts with you! Hua Lian was furious, "When you asked for the pill to cure Xie Jinci's cold poison, what did you say?" ”

"Forget."

"You say, you want to use the Golden Scale Platform to exchange the elixir with me! What now? Now the Golden Scale Terrace was blown up by Mrs. Jing, and was blown up by her! Even if it was blown up, I thought that I could fish out the gold, silver and jewelry that had been blown into the water, but I didn't even have half a gold ingot in the water! Let me ask you, where did you get the treasure of the Seventeenth Lord's rich and rival country?! ”

Originally, the top floor of the Golden Scale Terrace was used to set aside Luo Seventeen's treasure.

After the explosion and collapse of the Golden Scale Terrace, it stands to reason that those treasures should have fallen into the water, but Hua Lian didn't catch anything!

Shen Changfeng spit out a puff of smoke rings gracefully.

Where did the treasure go?

Of course, he had already spent it.

Three years after giving up the scientific expedition, he was not idle for a day, opening a money village and a restaurant, and he used the gold and silver left by Luo XVII to establish a business empire belonging to him Shen Changfeng in Darong.

Who would have thought that the young concubine who lived in this small courtyard house was the owner of the largest money bank in Rong Kingdom?

He smiled, "Sister Pity, since you have come to Shangjing, don't go back at all, stay and take care of my business." I'm going to be an official soon, I don't have time to take care of business, the Shen family owes you a lot, don't miss me this time. ”

Hua Lian was so angry that she stroked her heart.

She rushed all the way with her, but she didn't get any benefits, but she wanted to help him take care of his business?!

Shen Changfeng turned around and walked into the house, "The shopkeeper of Lufeng Qian Zhuang sent a batch of account books today, saying that there is a large family that owes a huge amount of money, and you can see for me if you want to come to collect debts." I slept first. ”

Hua Lian watched him close the door.

The two bookkeepers came over from the study and said respectfully: "Poor girl, please, let's talk to you carefully about that family." ”

Hua Lian sat down in the study with a bitter face, facing the mountain of ledgers, and wanted to burn them with a fire.

A bookkeeper smiled and helped her spread out the account book, "Poor girl, this family has asked our money village for three years to borrow 700,000 taels of snowflake silver, plus interest, a total of 800,000 taels, and not a penny has been returned so far." ”

Hua Lian reluctantly flipped through the pages of accounts.

She knew that there were many Zhongming Ding food families in Shangjing, and in order to maintain the luxury and wealth on the surface, they often secretly used valuables as collateral to exchange cash for money and pawnshops.

For example, in this family, the shops are mortgaged, the acres of land are mortgaged, and even the mansion where they live is mortgaged.

She sneered, for a little vanity, she even mortgaged the property left by her ancestors, and it was no wonder that this kind of family was not defeated.

She said lightly: "Which family is it?" Who in the clan were officials in the court? ”

"It's the Great Sima Mansion."

Hua Lian's hand in the ledger paused.
