Chapter 77: Borrowing Silver
Xi Yan is Xi Tonglin's only son, Xi Tonglin naturally won't watch him being cut into cripples, Xi Yancheng is crippled, after he is a hundred years old, who will give him a beating?
"I'll borrow it." Xi Tonglin responded and ran out.
Xi Tonglin: The first person who wanted to borrow money was Xi Tongfang.
A few days after Xi Tongfang took away three thousand taels of silver from the big house, the silver must not be used so quickly, it must still be there, Xi Tonglin got into the carriage and went to the Xi family's incense and candle shop.
When Xi Tonglin went to the incense and candle shop, Xi Tongfang happened to be there, Xi Tonglin saw him, and he directly asked for silver, he didn't say that he wanted to pay off Xi Yan's gambling debts, only said that the shop could not be opened, and he wanted silver to turnover.
He said, "Just borrow it for a few days, and after a few days, I'll give it back to you." ”
"Brother, it's not that I don't borrow you, I used all the money." Xi Tongfang was embarrassed to refuse.
Three thousand taels of silver, two hundred taels of benefits were given to the old sect master, two thousand taels were used to participate in the sea vessels, and the remaining eight hundred taels were also spent a lot of dowry for the children, and five hundred taels, which were kept at home for backup and could not be moved.
Xi Tonglin thought that he refused to borrow, and suddenly became angry, "How can you say that we are also brothers, brothers are in difficulty, and they reach out to you, how can you watch it?" ”
"Whether you borrow it today or not, I must take a few thousand taels of silver." Xi Tonglin was used to bullying Xi Tongfang, and he didn't feel that there was anything wrong with what he said.
Xi Tongfang's face changed, "Brother, we have separated, and our lives are all our own lives, if you want silver, go to your own shop to find it, I don't have it here." ”
In the past few days, because of the help of the Chu family, the shop has a good income, earning almost two hundred taels of silver, but it is almost the Qingming Festival, and the incense and candle shops and coffin shops have to buy a large number of goods, preparing for the Qingming Festival.
Xi Tonglin was angry, raised his feet and rushed to the counter of the shop, wanting to grab the silver, Xi Tongfang was also anxious, "Brother, you want to be a robber?" ”
"What robber, I borrowed my brother's silver, how is it a robber, you get out of the way, I borrow the silver and leave......"
Xi Tonglin pushed Xi Tongfang who was blocking him, Xi Tongfang was angry, "If I promise to borrow, I will call it borrowing, and if I don't agree to borrow, it will be a robbery...... Brother, if you come to rob the silver, then don't blame me for being unkind. ”
"How do you want to be polite?" Xi Tonglin glared fiercely at his cousin who had been bullied by himself for half his life, "I tell you, don't think that if you split up, I will let you go, Xi Tongfang, everything in this Xi family was originally mine, and you snatched my things, now, I just came to you to get some silver to use, you are not qualified to refuse." ”
Then he thought that Xi Yan owed the casino nearly 10,000 taels of silver, and said, "I lack a lot of silver, so you two shops quickly sell them and give me silver, otherwise, don't blame me for not warning you in advance." ”
"Daddy gave me these two shops, that's mine, sell it or not, it's not up to you to decide, get out ......"
Xi Tonglin's words, the more he said, the more excessive, which angered Xi Tongfang, and Xi Tongfang grabbed Xi Tonglin and threw him out.
Xi Tonglin was furious, and immediately beckoned the two little guys he brought to smash the shop, but before they could make a move, they were thrown out of the shop by a few stout women who rushed over.
"Lord...... This is no longer a place where the people of your big house can spread wild, and if you come to grab the silver again, our lord will not miss family affection, and will send you to the government. A mother-in-law warned.
