Chapter 138: The Prodigal Son Turns Back and Doesn't Change His Money
Lin Shaoxuan got Jin Dajun's reminder, so he wanted to strike while the iron was hot and take the house exported by Xiao Song into his own name. He originally wanted to escort Xiao Song to the Yamen, but was stopped by Jin Dajun with a smile.
"You are not what you used to be, how can you do such a small thing by yourself? Just take a post and call someone from the yamen to come over. ”
What the? Can you still do this? Lin Shaoxuan was embarrassed for his old hat, called Jiang Jinyu's follower Qin'er, gave him twenty taels of silver, and ordered him to go to the yamen to call someone to do something.
How do you call it? Who should I call? Although Qin'er was Jiang Jinyu's scholar, he had never done such a thing, and Jin Dajun sent a little steward to lead him.
"Yulang, how are you so sure I'm going to win?" Lin Shaoxuan even won a few handfuls today, Jiang Jinyu asked him to gamble, and he was sure that he would win, but he had nothing to do sitting at this time, and they both refused to drink flower wine, so they gathered together to watch the scenery and chat.
"I'll look at the face, today your red face is shining, and you will have a windfall." Jiang Jinyu chuckled and perfunctory him.
"Then look, when will we be able to achieve the right result?" Lin Shaoxuan didn't believe this, but he didn't want to ask, he just blindly got tired of him.
"Let's just do this, brother, okay? What more do you want? Jiang Jinyu lowered her eyes.
"Okay, I'll stop talking." Lin Shaoxuan didn't know what the two of them should do to achieve positive results, so he had to change the topic abruptly. "I heard that his house is huge, aren't we just lacking a place to hold classes temporarily? He moved away after Ming'er, let's go and see. ”
"It's okay, but where is he going to live after he loses his house?" Jiang Jinyu has never gambled money, and seeing that Xiao Song lost all of a sudden today, she felt a little unbearable.
"He's just a bad gambler, even if he doesn't lose to us today, he will lose to someone else in the future, and others may not be as good as us to talk to!" Lin Shaoxuan looked at Xiao Song and saw that he was on the boat by Jin Dajun's people, and he didn't lack his food and drink, but he was not allowed to leave, and couldn't help but smile.
"It is better for us to use his house for good deeds than to be taken by others as a recreational courtyard. When the academy is repaired, I want to turn it into a vocational college, with separate middles and male and female students, so that everyone can have a place to learn some skills in eating. ”
"That's a good idea." Jiang Jinyu was really attracted by him, "The academy can only help those scholars who are studying, but your vocational college can help many civilians." ”
"Yes, I also recruit female students, so that they can also read and write, and learn some textile and embroidery skills, so that they can have food in the future." Lin Shaoxuan saw that he was interested, so he had to explain his ideas to him in detail.
"Well, then let's wait and ask him, how many people are in the family, but there is a place to move, if not, it is better to buy him a small house to live in." Jiang Jinyu looked at Xiao Song's tragic situation, and still felt unbearable.
"Okay, it's all up to you."
The two talked and laughed, and they didn't wait long before a small boat sent Master Huang over.
"Ah, Master Huang, why are you here in person?" Lin Shaoxuan hurriedly greeted him.
"I heard that it's your two business, how dare the villain slack off?" Master Huang greeted them with a smile, and took out a stamped post, "What do you two want to do?" The villain was written right away. ”
Can Master Huang tell them that he took the initiative to ask for a sycophant? Although twenty taels of silver is not a lot, the thighs of the old man and the celebrities in the palace are more important, and if you have the opportunity, you naturally have to brush your sense of existence more.
"Master Lao will personally run it." Lin Shaoxuan took out the deed and the mortgage and IOU written by Xiao Song himself, and after Master Huang inspected it, he immediately transferred the ownership to them, signed and mortgaged the three parties, and called a few witnesses to also press their handprints, and the West Lake Villa of Xiao Song's family has since belonged to Jiang Jinyu.
Why are they all given to Jiang Jinyu? That's not because he has an official status and doesn't have to pay taxes for anything. Besides, Lin Shaoxuan plans to change it into a branch of the academy in the future, and it is naturally better to put the industry in one place.
Master Huang is really a capable official, he finished the formalities after a while, and said a lot of flattering words to Lin Jiang and the others, even Lin Shaoxuan's thick skin couldn't listen to it, so he had to take out a silver ticket of one hundred taels to thank him, and coaxed him to say that he would definitely introduce him if he had the opportunity to meet the prince, so he was deceived off the boat, and by the way, Xiao Song, who had been squeezed out of his property, was also taken out.
"Oh, it's all gone!" Lin Shaoxuan let out a long breath and sent the deed to Jiang Jinyu, "How much did we win today?" ”
"More than three thousand taels, plus a big house." Jiang Jinyu kept the silver tickets, and he wrote them all down for him.
"Hehe, this business is good, and I earn 20,000 taels a day." Lin Shaoxuan converted the silver into RMB in his heart, and found that even if he won more than 10 million in one afternoon, his heart was really happy.
"Hmph, eat, drink, prostitute and gamble, you have it all!" Jiang Jinyu helped him win money, and looking at his smug appearance at this moment, his heart was not happy again.
"Whoever said that, I will take up one at most to eat and drink, and ensure that the other two things are not touched at all." Lin Shaoxuan immediately raised his hand and swore, which coaxed him to turn his anger into joy. Although the two of them were in full view, they seemed to be in a no-man's land, and they didn't care about how others played, they only cared about drinking and chatting with themselves, talking about the business of the workshop, and then talking about the planning of the academy, until the people from the Jiang Mansion came to invite dinner.
They are having a good time here, and Xiao Song is miserable! Lin Shaohan lost all the capital he gave him, and he also ruined his house, how could he face his wife and wife and children when he went back?
Xiao Song went to Lin Shaohan first with a bitter face, delusionally thinking that he would find some to make up for it from him, could Lin Shaohan promise him?
"What? Aren't you boasting that you are a gambling god, and there is no rival in the whole city of Hangzhou? How could you lose so badly?! When Lin Shaohan heard him say that he lost money, his first feeling was that this kid wanted to cheat his money.
"It's really evil today, your second brother's luck is somehow so good, I even staked my own house in the end, who knows it's still a little younger than him!" Xiao Song cried and pointed at his dark circles with a sad face, "You see they beat me, and when I won the money, they said that I was a good man, and my hand was almost broken by them." If I hadn't gotten the house to them, they would still be crushed on the boat and refused to let it go. ”
Xiao Song cried and shouted and demanded that Lin Shaohan pay him the silver, which made Lin Shaohan's heart rise eight feet high. "What are you arguing about? You haven't asked you to pay back my money if you lost it, and now you still want compensation from me? I asked you to borrow money? I told you to mortgage the house? Get the hell out of here! ”
Lin Shaohan pushed Xiao Song away vigorously, and ran to sulk by himself. What can I do? Originally, he wanted to trick his second brother into the gambling game and tell him to lose all his money and lose face, but who knew that now not only his five thousand taels were lost, but even Xiao Song's house was given to him.
Lin Shaoxuan, Lin Shaoxuan, why don't you die? No, I can't wait any longer, the news that Jiang Jinyu was named a fifth-grade official has spread all over the city, and I must take advantage of their fledgling wings to start as soon as possible, if it drags on any longer, I'm afraid I will never be able to avenge my mother again in this life!
Lin Shaohan gritted his teeth and made up his mind in his heart, he wanted to immediately start the subversion plan, destroy the entire Lin family, take revenge on Master Lin's indifference back then, and force Mrs. Lin to avenge his mother!
Lin Shaohan gritted his teeth and thought about his thoughts, but Xiao Song refused to leave, and kept making noise, crying and begging, and threatening with cruel words, which made Lin Shaohan uneasy.
"Okay, there are a hundred taels of silver here, which is enough for you to buy dozens of acres of land to live. Hurry up and get out of here, and if you dare to come over again, I'll break your legs! Lin Shaohan opened the money box and took out a big silver ingot, threw it into Xiao Song's arms, and called two subordinates from outside the door, "Send him out, tell the doorman, don't let him in in the future." ”
Xiao Song is really a tiger in Pingyang and is bullied by dogs, it's not right, he is not a tiger in the first place, and now it is appropriate to describe him as a lost dog. Xiao Song was thrown out of the gate of the Lin Mansion and stood on the street not knowing where to go. What to do? The only place to live has been cut off by him, and he was forced to move out, and the family's property has long been tossed away by him, and now there are only dozens of acres of land and a hundred taels of silver left, so how will the old mother's wife and young son settle down in the future?
Xiao Song finally saw the coffin hit the south wall now, and returned home in a daze, and when he got home, it was already dark, and the family was still waiting for him to eat.
"Husband, why did you come back at this time? Dinner is available? His wife, Bai, saw him enter the door and hurried to greet him.
"Not yet, what about Mother?" Xiao Song looked at the woman who hadn't had a good life since she had followed him, and suddenly felt very guilty in her heart, but she didn't know how to tell her.
"Mother is doing needlework in the room, and I'm going to ask her to come out." Seeing that it was rare for him to be so stable, Bai Shi was secretly surprised in his heart, but he didn't suspect anything else, just turned around and went to ask his mother-in-law.
"Mother! I'm sorry for you! When Xiao Song saw his mother, he couldn't hold back his tears anymore, and knelt on the ground and cried loudly, "Mother, my son is not filial, and you and I have suffered, woo...... I regret it! ”
"Son, what have you done again?" Mother Song patted her son's head lightly, and when she saw that he couldn't stop crying, she didn't pull him up, until he had cried enough, and then ordered him to understand.
Xiao Song looked at the white hair on his mother's sideburns, thinking that the family would not even have a house to live in in the future, and tears fell again. He wiped away his tears and briefly recounted today's events. He was full of remorse in his heart, and he had made up his mind that no matter how his mother beat and scolded him, he would never hide from it, but who knew that his mother just nodded and asked him: "There are still dozens of acres of land at home, and you have a hundred taels of silver in your pocket, why don't you take it and gamble again tomorrow?" ”
Xiao Song was scared when he heard this gambling word now, and when he heard the old lady still say that he wanted to gamble, he was so frightened that he immediately knelt down again: "Mother, the child will not dare to gamble in the future!" ”
"Don't really bet? My mother can give you the deed now. Seeing that her son finally repented, Song's mother finally comforted a little in her heart, but she had to test him again.
"I really don't gamble, if I gamble again, you will chop off my hand!"
"It's good not to gamble!" Mother Song saw that he was willing to swear to gamble again, so she chopped her hands, and reached out to help him up with relief, "Eat first, after eating, my mother has something to tell you." ”
