"Second elder brother, a few years ago, you took away two thousand taels of silver from me, and said that you would give gifts for the New Year, and now, it has not yet passed the first lunar day, and you want five thousand taels of silver, second elder brother, as soon as you open your mouth, you will say that you will take thousands of taels of silver and thousands of taels of silver, and the annual income of our Chu family's public middle school industry is only thirty or fifty thousand taels of silver, which is used on you, you say, how can the third elder brother use silver is not as fierce as you, does it mean that the third elder brother does not have to communicate with his colleagues?"

Chu Li was extremely disappointed in Chu Di.

His good second elder brother actually carried his father and aunt behind his back, and several of his brothers behind his back, and secretly purchased a property in the capital.

That's not all, they also use all kinds of excuses to ask for money from home.

Two-thirds of the family's annual income was taken by him.

His father reads that the second elder brother has a high official position and has a lot of personal contacts, so every time his second elder brother speaks, his father doesn't say a word, how much silver he wants, and how much silver he gives.

In the past, I didn't know that his second elder brother was hiding his thoughts, but now, knowing that his second elder brother and his family are hiding their hearts and secretly buying properties in the capital, if he still gives the second elder brother silver without a bottom as before, how can it be fair to his other brothers?

Chu Di's face suddenly became gloomy, "The third child is in Fujian, and it can't be compared with the capital, the royal relatives in the capital are all over the country, and you can make one or two friends casually, you have to use the silver to pile up human relations, the fourth, you just say that the silver is not given, and you don't make excuses for me to say no, you are now in charge of the affairs of our Chu family, and the silver in and out of the Chu family has to go from your hands, if you want to say that there is no silver, I don't believe it." ”

Chu Li sighed, "Second Elder Brother, I am in the capital, our Chu family has no business in the capital, and the Chu family's business is in Jiangnan." ”

Therefore, it is impossible for the Chu family's silver to be sent to the capital every day for him to pass on.

"Housework, I wrote back a year ago, handed over to Daddy and the fifth child, if you want silver, write to Daddy to ask, I really don't have it in my hand."

When Chu Di heard this, he hated it in his heart, but what Chu Li said was indeed the truth, he had been in the capital for almost half a year, and when he came to recognize his relatives, even if he brought silver, I am afraid that it will really be used almost at this time.

Chu Di's eyes rolled, and he changed his words, "Write back, I'm afraid it's too late, fourth, or, you can borrow five thousand taels of silver from your father-in-law first, and then return it to him when Daddy sends someone to send the silver." ”

Chu Li was called angry.

Lu Tongfang is just an heir of the Marquis of Ping'an.

Even if the Hou Ye is kind to his father-in-law, he will not give him five thousand taels of silver at once.

Five thousand taels of silver is also a lot of money for the noble family.

What's more, with such a large sum of silver, how can he talk to his father-in-law?

This method is due to his second elder brother!

Chu Li immediately retorted, "If you borrow silver, you don't need it, there is a rare two-meter-high plum vase given to me by my husband in my treasury, which is priceless, and I will go with you to attend Lord Huo's birthday when the time comes, and I will bring the vase directly." ”

"My Shangfeng doesn't know you either, what are you going to do?" A trace of emptiness flashed in Chu Di's eyes, but soon, that trace of emptiness was covered up by him again, and he said, "You give me that vase first, and you don't have to go." ”
