Lu's tragic posture is broken.

Bai Rongxin took a step back, and smiled harmlessly: "This is the outside." I just want an explanation, and I don't mean to force the big lady to smash the pot and sell iron. Besides, the eldest lady also said that these things were borrowed, and they were all used for entertainment in the public school, and they did not go into the eldest lady's own pocket, so how could the long house be allowed to fill this shortfall? ”

He turned to the old lady and said, "It should be from the public school." ”

The old lady said to the Lu family: "Then you can take the money from the public and return it to the second room." ”

Lu Shi said aggrievedly: "If there is money in the public school, I still need to borrow it?" ”

The old lady choked: "There are fields and shops in the public, and there is so much interest every year, why is there no money?" ”

The Lu family was even more aggrieved, and he complained that you really didn't know how expensive firewood and rice were: "Mother doesn't know that when the old lady was alive, our family took over twice and hollowed out the foundation." Besides, the big officials spend a lot of money in Beijing, and the old lady also said at the beginning that the big officials represent the whole Mengshi clan in Beijing, and the expenses can't just be borne by Changfang alone, and the public middle school should also pay a part. Coupled with the daily expenses of such a large family, Gongzhong has long been able to eat food. ”

The old lady doesn't care about the family, where does she know the detailed accounts, just listening to her say this, she also feels that the reason is very strong, so she can only say: "Then it won't be beyond your means, right?" ”

Lu squinted at her: "If the old lady can be more frugal here, she can save a sum of money every month......

The old lady covered her temples: "Ouch! I'm having another headache. I don't care about this, you can discuss it yourself. Sandalwood, help me in and rest. ”

She grabbed Sandalwood's hand, and she didn't know who was dragging whom, so she directly threw down Lu Shi, Bai Rongxin, Meng Qingyun and others, and slipped into the inner room by herself.

Fortunately, Bai Rongxin and Lu both knew who she was, but they were not surprised at all. Meng Qingyun was refreshed by the old lady's behavior of being so good at pretending to be an ostrich.

The situation turned into a confrontation between the two sides, and Lu threw away the disguise of showing weakness and pretending to be small, and put the shelf up again.

"Since it's already a gong and a drum in front of you, Uncle Bai might as well say it directly."

Bai Rongxin saw her face change so quickly, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "She is worthy of being the housewife, she can really afford to put it down." ”

Lu Shi lowered his head, dusted off a trace of fine ash on his skirt with his hand, and said quietly: "It's just for this family, it's just painstaking." It's a pity......" She turned her head sideways, her eyes fell on Meng Qingyun's face, and she sighed, "Even if you break your heart, few people can understand and appreciate it." ”

Meng Qingyun's eyelids drooped, and he changed a handkerchief to gently wipe away the tears at the corners of his eyes.

For this family, although this kind of talk is beautiful, just listen to it, for everyone or for the small family, for the public welfare or for personal gain - she is not a three-year-old child anymore, and she will not be fooled by a few soft words.

The tea on both sides was already cold, and the maidservants changed to make a cup of tea.

Bai Rongxin said: "It's still the same sentence, you can't write two Mongolian characters in one stroke." Although my sister is blessed, she has been the daughter-in-law of the Meng family for more than ten years. Money is something outside the body, those things and silver, just think that she has done her best to be a daughter-in-law for this family. However, my niece is still young, and she will have to live in this mansion in the future, even if she has a brother-in-law, she can't control the affairs of the inner house. I'll make the decision for her, if the eldest lady doesn't have things for a while, she is not in a hurry, she writes an IOU seriously, and presses her handprint, so that everyone understands it clearly, and it will not become a confused account in the future. ”

Lu Shi said: "What if I don't write? ”

Bai Rongxin hugged his arm on the ground: "Then don't blame me for ignoring the face of my relatives, let's go to court." ”

Lu Shi gritted his teeth and said, "Aren't you afraid of causing a scandal?" ”

Bai Rongxin smiled: "Is this a scandal of the Meng family, or a scandal of the Bai family?" ”

The Lu family was so angry that she was hurt internally, but she didn't take care of this matter, Bai Rongxin didn't intercede with her, she had to do business, she had no choice.

Bai Rongxin made all the preparations, and asked Green Smoke and Bauhinia to hold paper, ink, pen, inkstone and ink on the spot, and write down IOUs in front of both parties.

"There is a Montessori branch chief's daughter-in-law Lu Shi, who is fed in the palm of her hand, and she is socialized in the public, and she should borrow a number of property from the second daughter-in-law Bai Shi in an urgent situation, and the details are as follows: on a certain day, month, and day, borrow a certain thing, what is the size, what is the amount, and how much is the amount of silver...... "Transcribe the details of the account book one by one.

"Borrower: Mon Lu"

"Guarantor: Bai Rongxin"

After Bai Rongxin was written, he handed it to Lu Shi for a look, and Lu Shi secretly slandered him while looking at it, and he was really a copper-smelling businessman, and he had no literary brilliance at all.

Spit to spit out, the IOU itself is fine.

The two signed their own signatures.

Bai Rongxin dried the ink on the IOU, folded it carefully, and threw it to Meng Qingyun.

Meng Qingyun smiled sweetly: "Thank you, uncle." ”

Green Smoke and the others quickly packed up their things, and surrounded the nephews and uncles before leaving.

Lu Shi looked at their backs, his chest hurt with anger, and he couldn't help but say loudly: "Yuan Niang is so capable, it seems that there will be someone in charge of the second room from now on, so I don't have to worry about it anymore." ”

Meng Qingyun stopped, turned around, his eyes were bright, and said: "I also have a message to advise the eldest lady, if you can break the things outside, you should break them, and it is better to do less things that violate the law and discipline." ”

Lu Shi was shocked: "What kind of deed, don't you talk about it!" ”

The corners of Meng Qingyun's mouth twitched: "If people don't know, unless you don't do it." ”

She shook the IOU in the air twice with two fingers, showed a big smug smile, turned around and looked like a child, grabbed Bai Rongxin's elbow, and the nephew and his party walked away affectionately.

"Little!"

Lu Shi pressed his chest, so angry that he didn't know whether it was distress or liver pain, and took two steps back and fell back to the rose chair.

Luo's mother hurriedly persuaded: "Don't be like her, eldest lady......"

"Phew! Confused! Lu's willow eyebrows were raised, "You don't want to think about it, even she knows, maybe the rumors have already leaked out!" ”

"Huh? What wind? Luo's mother was really confused at first, "Ah! You mean the ...... of the seal?"

Lu's eye knife gouged over, Luo's mother quickly stopped her mouth, looked left and right, and the maids and servants around her all shrank their heads and made quail shapes, wishing they didn't have ears.

Not to mention how Lu and Luo's mother would deal with the Yinzi money when they turned around, Meng Qingyun, who returned to Huanhua Pavilion, happily asked Lu Yan to put away the IOU.

Bai Rongxin looked at her proud and delicate little girl shape, and couldn't help laughing: "I haven't seen you for a few years, Yuan Niang has really grown up, your mother has always been weak and quiet, and she raised your daughter so decisively." ”

Meng Qingyun said: "If I don't have my uncle's support, how can I dare to go against the eldest lady." ”

Bai Rongxin shook his head and sighed: "I didn't expect that the eldest lady would be so excessive, and now it seems that your mother was only afraid of being oppressed by her when she was alive, and she never complained to us about these things." It's just that this time I tore my face with her, I just left, but you still have to live under her nose, aren't you afraid? ”
