Chu Huaiyuan had no choice, he couldn't go out to borrow money from loan sharks, he could only lower his face, discuss with those shopkeepers, and return everything.

But other people's stores can't work in vain, in short, the store has returned the goods, but Chu Huaiyuan has to pay half of the wages.

In this way, Chu Huaiyuan still owes about three hundred taels of silver outside.

Three hundred taels, there is only one way to exchange all this silver back, and that is to sell the house.

The house where Chu Huaiyuan lives now is the property of the Fang family back then, that is to say, it belongs to Chu Xintian's mother, the Fang family.

At that time, the Fang family married Chu Huaiyuan. Fang's family was not satisfied with the marriage.

However, the Fang family only had such a daughter, and they didn't want to embarrass her in family matters, so they had to agree.

Chu Huaiyuan is a poor man from the bottom of the county, and there is nothing else except his appearance.

When they were about to get married, the Fang family didn't want to wronged their daughter, so they bought them a small house on West Street.

Later, the two elders of the Fang family died one after another, and the Fang family and Chu Huaiyuan lived in the big house of the Fang family.

It is the current Chu family.

In fact, after the death of the second elder of the Fang family, some houses and shops were left behind.

But later, Chu Huaiyuan thought of spending money to get promoted, so he coaxed the Fang clan to sell them all.

Except for the small yard on West Street.

That's because the Fang clan thought that this courtyard was where she lived when she married Chu Huaiyuan. It's a memorial. She refuses to sell it, which is why it exists.

Later, after Fang's death, Chu Huaiyuan probably knew that no matter how much money he spent on running a relationship, no one supported him, all the money was in vain, and there should be no hope of promotion.

Therefore, instead of selling the small yard, he stayed and rented it out. He still has five pieces of silver a month.

Chu Huaiyuan didn't expect that in his lifetime, he would return to live in the small courtyard with his family.

The big house that Chu Huaiyuan used to live in was originally very spacious, but when he returned to the small courtyard, his heart became even more uneasy.

Liu and Chu Pearl are used to living in a big house and are very dissatisfied with the small house.

There were two bedrooms in the courtyard, and Chu Huaiyuan was so angry that he didn't allow Liu to sleep with him and kicked her out.

There is no way. Liu could only curl up in another small room, with her children Chu Zhu and Chu Yu, otherwise she would have to sleep outside.

As for the Chu family's big house, Chu Huaiyuan asked someone to help inquire about the buyer, and it was quickly sold.

Although the house is big, it is an old house after all. Chu Huaiyuan finally sold two hundred and eighty taels of silver.

Chu Huaiyuan didn't know who the buyer was. However, he didn't care. At this time, as long as he gets the money, he can pay off the debt a day earlier. And that's a good thing. Otherwise, there will be a lot of interest accrued.

Even if he sells the house, he still has seventy taels of silver to pay.

Chu Huaiyuan took some jewelry and clothes from Liu and Chu Pearl and pawned them, and in the end, he paid off his debts.

This marriage farce made Chu Huaiyuan lose face and lose money.

However, this is far from the end.

In the county, there are many different discussions.

Most people think that Chu Pearl is really shameless. The girl who has not left the cabinet thinks about marrying Lu Gongzi every day, and she doesn't look at how many catties and taels she has, which is really overwhelming.

Chu Pearl's reputation soon stinked.

And those who know the details of Chu Pearl's family say that if there is a mother, there must be a daughter.

Before Liu went out of the cabinet, she hooked up with Chu Huaiyuan, and later, when she married Chu Huaiyuan as his wife, she also brought two children, and this kind of old things in the past were also turned over.

Liu's reputation is not very good, at this time, this marriage farce is even more attention-grabbing, as soon as she goes out, people point fingers in front of her, no matter how thick Liu's face is, she can't stand it.
