3. Chapter 3: The Three-Day Covenant
"Erniang, since the housekeeper of the Gao Mansion is looking for me, I'll just go. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"
After Tang Zhou said this, Qin Shu and Tang Duo both set their eyes on Tang Zhou, but soon, Tang Duo immediately begged: "Little Marquis, don't make trouble at this time, last time you almost mortgaged the old marquis's land, if the second lady hadn't sold her jewelry, the old marquis's hundreds of acres of land would have become someone else's." ”
After Tang Duo finished speaking, he looked at Qin Shu again, obviously, he put all his hopes on Qin Shu, Qin Shu bowed slightly, expressing his agreement with what Tang Duo said, and asked Tang Zhou not to cause chaos again.
Seeing this, Tang Zhou smiled and said: "Erniang, just now I said that I want to work hard, but now if I can't even do such a thing, how can I bare the lintel?" ”
Hearing this, Qin Shu hesitated a little, she felt that what Tang Zhou said was right, although this Hou Ye Mansion is her own family, but how can she be a woman's family, sooner or later, she will still be the little Hou Ye?
And she felt that since Tang Zhou was abused by Fang Xuanling's daughter yesterday, he had become much more serious when he came back, could it be that he also knew the shame, so he was like this?
If that's the case, you should give him a chance.
"In that case, you should come along."
The three of them walked out of the bedroom and came to the living room, where the housekeeper of the Gao Mansion was already waiting with Erlang's legs crossed.
Gao Shilian is the housekeeper of Gao Shilian's house, called Gao Neng, Gao Shilian is the uncle of the eldest grandson queen and the eldest grandson Wuji, and has participated in the change of Li Shimin's Xuanwu Gate, and is very favored in the court, so Gao Neng is also very domineering, and he does not put this small founding county marquis in his eyes at all.
Gao Neng was fat and slightly short, and after seeing Tang Zhou and a few of them coming, he immediately asked in a domineering tone: "Tang Xiaohou, a few days ago, you borrowed five hundred yuan from my eldest son, Gao Cheng, and said that you would pay it back today, but now you have the money to pay it back?" ”
A few days ago, Tang Zhou fell in love with Hua Qinglian, the top brand of Linglong Fang, Fireworks Lane in Chang'an City, but if he wanted to become a guest of Hua Qinglian, he had to spend money, but he didn't, Gao Shilian's eldest son Gao Cheng happened to be there at that time, so he borrowed 500 yuan from Gao Cheng and said that he would pay it back today.
As soon as Gao Neng finished speaking, Qin Shu had already preemptively said: "Now I only have fifty yuan left in my Tanghou Mansion, if you want to, take it first." ”
Gao Neng smiled coldly: "What does the second lady mean?" Do you want to send me away with fifty dollars? Could it be that you are not ready to pay back the money borrowed by my son-in-law? ”
"You?" Qin Shu felt that Gao Neng was a bit of a bully, when did she say that she would cheat and not pay back, she felt that Gao Neng must have taken a fancy to her master's hundreds of acres of good fields.
Sure enough, as soon as Qin Shu said your word, Gao Neng said coldly: "My son-in-law said that you must take the money today, and if you don't take the money, you will use your Tang family's hundreds of acres of land outside Chang'an City as a mortgage." ”
After Gao Neng finished speaking, he already showed a smug smile, he knew very well that the Tang family couldn't take out the money at all, so the land outside the city, their Gao family was going to decide.
At this time, Tang Zhou, who had been silent, suddenly showed a faint smile, and sat down on the chair in the living room, and said to Gao Neng lightly: "The land of the Tang family is all rewarded by the Holy Lord today, without the Holy Lord's order, this Marquis will not dare to sell, I dare not sell, do you Gao family dare to rob it?" ”
"You ......" Gao Neng was a little speechless for a while, in fact, the land that the Holy Lord rewarded to those marquis princes is not allowed to be sold in law, for example, the Marquis of the founding county is a thousand households in Shiyi, if you sell the land, is it still a thousand households in Shiyi?
However, the fact that the imperial court does not allow it does not mean that it cannot be traded in private.
But now that Tang Zhou said this, his Gao family really didn't dare to forcibly occupy those lands, if it was ordinary people, it would be easy to say, but this Tang Zhou is a Hou Ye.
And when Gao Neng thought like this, he was faintly a little strange, he had always heard that Tang Zhou only knew about the wind and snow, and he was actually as easy to deceive as a fool, but how could he be shrewd today?
"So you don't want to use the land as a mortgage, in that case, then pay it back." Gao Neng can become the housekeeper of Gao Shilian's mansion, that is definitely not an ordinary person, he knows very well that as long as he uses money to force Tang Zhou, he must make concessions.
Tang Zhou was very clear about the intention of high energy, so at this time, Tang Zhou drank a cup of tea lightly, and said with a smile: "I didn't seem to hear my Erniang's words clearly just now, I Tang Zhou will definitely pay back the money, but now it is only fifty yuan, if you want to take it first, I will send the rest to you after I get it together." ”
"No, my son-in-law said that he must get the money today, and if he can't get the money, he will ......"
"Just take the land as a mortgage, right?" Tang Zhou's tone suddenly became cold, and then he continued: "The Tang family's land is there, no one can move without the order of the Holy Lord, if you still want money, just wait, but if you don't follow, you don't want to get a penny." ”
Speaking of this, Tang Zhou smiled lightly: "I know that your Gao family has a great cause and has power in the court, but I don't think you dare to demolish this Hou Ye Mansion rewarded by the Holy Lord, right?" ”
Tang Zhou's words were very domineering, domineering that made everyone present stunned for a moment, is this their previous frivolous little marquis?
"You...... You think it's just a trick? If you owe money to repay the debt, you will sue the Holy One, and you will not pay attention to it. ”
"Yes, but this marquis didn't say that he wouldn't pay it back, you take it first, and I will pay you back the rest."
Gao Neng didn't expect that he was not Tang Zhou's opponent in terms of tongue today, and after some thought, he looked at Tang Zhou and said, "How many days do you want to pay it off?" ”
"Half a month."
"No, three days, I'll come back in three days, if you haven't been able to get the money ready by then, then don't blame our Gao family for being polite, don't make so many excuses then?"
Hearing that five hundred yuan had been collected in three days, Qin Shu and the others were suddenly a little anxious, and hurriedly hinted that Tang Zhou could not agree, but Tang Zhou smiled: "Okay, you come to my house again in three days, if I can't come up with the money again, let you dispose of it, how about it?" ”
Hearing Tang Zhou's words, Gao Neng's heart was overjoyed, but he also had a long heart, and said: "In case you change the hexagram again, this time we have to make a note, and I will withdraw the money for 500 yuan three days later, if you can't take it out, how about the entire Hou Mansion and you are at the disposal of our Gao family?" ”
"Good!"
Seeing that Tang Zhou agreed so happily, Gao Neng immediately wrote the note, and then asked Tang Zhou to draw the pledge, and after doing so, he took away the only fifty yuan left in the Hou Ye's Mansion, which was called the interest for the past few days.
The interest commission in the past few days is really too high, but in order to get away the high energy first, you can only suffer this loss.
As soon as Gao Neng left, Tang Duo suddenly threw himself on the table and cried.
