Wang Dewang's house is absolutely unique among the villages on both sides of Huaxi. From a distance, the pink walls and tiles are one section higher than the surrounding houses, and up close, they are all finely ground bricks, which are the mansions that the previous generation of Wang Dahu spent his life savings to build.

Fang Yingwu was taken to Wang Dahu's house by two servants of the Wang family, and entered the main hall again, feeling that there was only one word in his heart, that is, open. In fact, this is not a luxury, but Fang Yingwu has been accustomed to seeing low thatched huts in the countryside for a period of time, and it is indeed a sight to see when he suddenly enters such a high hall.

It didn't take long for Wang Deyou to appear from behind and sit down with Fang Yingwu. After the rough maid had served tea, Wang Dahu opened his mouth, "What does the virtuous nephew think, how is my daughter?" ”

It's a simple question, but it also depends on who asks it and who asks it, and the meaning is completely different.

When Fang Yingwu heard this question, he instantly realized, is there finally an official showdown?

My father borrowed the silver from Wang Dahu at the end of May of the eleventh year of Chenghua, and the term was two years. Fang Yingwu could conclude that Wang Dahu chose to see him at this time, and after seeing him, he asked him in person, obviously he was going to give an ultimatum.

Thinking quickly about how to deal with the persecution, he replied first: "The daughter of your mansion has a beautiful appearance and is innocent, just like a fairy and mortal. ”

Wang Dahu smiled slightly, "The virtuous nephew is too famous, and the virtuous nephew thinks that he is as worthy as you?" ”

Fang Yingwu had never encountered such a difficult question to answer, and it was not easy to answer.

If you say "matching", I am afraid that I will be tied up in the cave room immediately, and from tomorrow onwards it will be the Wang family; If there is a sentence of "not worthy", then it is estimated that Wang Dahu will immediately raise the issue of repaying debts, and maybe discuss the feasibility of selling his land to repay if he does not sell his land enough.

However, on this issue, he does not have much room to maneuver, and the debt is real, and he cannot deny it in any way.

Just as Fang Yingwu was thinking about it, Wang De opened his mouth again, "Actually, I feel more and more that you and my little lady are not suitable, and your business will not be successful." Even if it is barely done, Zuihou is a tragedy.

I can see that you have your nobility and arrogance, although you seem to have always tried to hide it. And she doesn't know how to be humble, vulgarly speaking, you can't pee in a pot at all. I have indeed always wanted to recruit you, but now that I think about it, it is all wishful thinking, and the twisted melon is not sweet after all. ”

Fang Yingwu raised his head unexpectedly, he didn't expect Wang Dahu to be so reasonable, could it be that he really didn't want to continue to force him into trouble?

However, Fang Yingwu is very cheap and a little lost, in the hearts of others, he has changed from a treasure that is vigorously solicited to a stone on the side of the road that is not worth looking for, and this gap is still a little embarrassing.

In any case, even if he understood a matter, Fang Yingwu put his mind on the debt again, and thanked Wang Dahu: "Thank you for your kindness, as for the debt, I still ask for a few months, and then I will definitely think about repaying it." ”

If he becomes a Xiucai by then, the worst result will be that he can't hide from the county school, Wang Dahu just wants to force debts, and it is not good to give him ten dares, and he will not dare to alarm the school palace.

Hearing Fang Yingwu's determination and request for forgiveness, Wang De was unimpressed, and said lightly: "Between you and me, there is no longer this debt." ”

Fang Yingwu's heart was relieved and he was overjoyed! This debt, which is still 20 days away, is indeed a stone in his heart, and the most difficult thing is that he has no solution and can only be at the mercy of others.

Even if the three acres of land owned after the separation are repaid, only half of them can be repaid, and even so, what will they eat and drink in the future?

I didn't expect Wang Dewang to write off a light stroke, and I didn't expect him to be a kind person with a cold face and a warm heart, I really can't see it. Fang Yingwu was full of emotion for a while, and said quite emotionally: "The kindness of the king is not only today, but the little nephew will be rewarded." ”

Wang De raised his hand and prevented Fang Yingwu from continuing to express his gratitude, "It seems that you have misunderstood, the reason why you say that there is no longer this debt between you and me is because someone paid me thirty taels and took the IOU away." From now on, he is your creditor, and there is really no debt between me and you. ”

Someone took over the debt? I see! Fang Yingwu's mood immediately fell back to the world from heaven, the truth was actually like this, in vain he was grateful to Wang Dahu, daring to be teased, Wang Dahu was really not such a kind and benevolent person!

Although he felt that he was being teased, Fang Yingwu knew that now was not the time to compete, so he couldn't help but ask a question that he was most concerned about: "Dare to ask Wang Yuanwai, who is this debt in his hands?" ”

"Yesterday I was suddenly visited by someone from the county and asked about the debt that your father owed me, and then he took out the money on the spot and said that he was willing to buy the debt. So I gave him your father's IOU, and I wrote a deed in my own hand, agreeing to hand over the debt to him. ”

Hearing this, Fang Yingwu was secretly surprised, could it be that he went to the county seat, and after attracting attention, his father's former friend inquired about his family's debt dilemma, so he secretly helped?

The ancients had many examples of emphasizing righteousness, and this time it was probably another beautiful conversation. If you can find out who is righteous and does good deeds, you must "write" a poem to praise him.

Just as Fang Yingwu was fantasizing, Wang De seemed to recall something, "I remember, that person seems to have been sent by a woman named Baimei in the city." ”

The white plum girl who was deeply injured by her father?! When Fang Yingwu heard this name, Mei Haode fantasies shattered instantly, and after falling from heaven to earth, he fell again and fell directly into hell.

He couldn't help but bounce up from his chair and asked in disbelief, "How can Wang Yuanwai transfer the debt to her!" ”

Wang De sneered: "Are you joking! This debt is a bad debt, can you afford it? In the past, it might be possible to exchange you for being a son-in-law, which would not be a loss, but now that it is becoming more and more impossible, what is the use?

Since someone is willing to take over, what reason do I have not to give up in business? Wake up, young man! Isn't this world all coaxing you to turn! ”

Fang Yingwu was speechless for a long time, and he guessed several times today, but he didn't guess the point. He thought he was going to force marriage, but the king gave up; He thought he was going to force a debt, but the king also gave up; He thought that Wang Dahu's brain was cramping and initiating kindness, but it turned out that Wang Dahu actually had no affection at all; He thought that he had met Lei Feng, who did good deeds without leaving a name, but he met the enemy he provoked by his father

never expected that Zuihou would be this ending, but this ending was ruthlessly brought by Wang Dahu. This is the true face of Wang Dahu, cold and ruthless, unsympathetic in front of interests, decisive when it is time to make a move, without dragging his feet.

Looking at this style, I always feel that his speculation that he colluded with Tan Gongdao to try to embezzle the poor people's fields is likely to be true. Besides, Wang Dahu can become the largest household in Huaxi, and his family property has increased by half since he took over the ancestral business, and there is a reason why.

Thirty taels of silver is not a small amount, it is worth the entire harvest of twenty acres of land in one year, which is equivalent to all the expenses of a family of five for two years, and is about equal to the work and food silver of a servant for nearly three years.

If this debt is in the hands of the king's big family, Fang Yingwu is not very worried, first, the Wang family has the idea of recruiting a son-in-law, and he will not really do anything to himself; second, as a neighbor of the same township, it is not good and ugly; The third is that although his father is missing, he is the only famous man in Huaxi after all. In addition, the little lady Wang who is obsessed with herself mediates from it, and she will not be too sad.

But what if this debt falls into the hands of Bai Mei, who holds a grudge? That's definitely a different scene, and she won't let go of this opportunity to toss herself. So this is the worst outcome, and if you don't get it right, you will really fall into a debt crisis and have no way out.

"I invite you here today to tell you, you can do it yourself." Wang De nodded, and then put out the send-off jiashi.
