Chapter 525: Xi Tonglin Released from Prison 5
But the big house sold the grange and the shop, so what did this big family eat and drink?
Xi Tongfang said, "This matter, in fact, is not without a solution, this is all in August, another month, the grain of the grange can be harvested, there are a lot of granges in the big house, how can the grain collected by the time can be sold for more than two thousand taels of silver, plus the income of the shop in these two months, at the end of September, how can you make up enough for the five thousand taels of silver, and the remaining three thousand taels, the tea house can just produce a batch of autumn tea, let the tea farmers pick more out, fry it, sell it cheaper, get together, how can you make up the eight thousand taels of silver." ”
In the end, although Xi Tongfang did not agree to help repay the debt, he still helped with an idea.
"A-Niang and Zou have a good discussion, this silver, more than a month late, will be fine."
At this time, Cheng stopped crying and didn't play tricks.
Because, she can see it, no matter how she cries, plays tricks, and pretends to be pitiful, this concubine will not be soft-hearted to help her repay her debts.
And she can't really go to the yamen to sue the same party for unfilial piety.
Because the concubine didn't sell the grange shop to help her repay her debts, she went to sue him for unfilial piety, which makes no sense, not to mention, that Cheng Yuankai has a grudge against her big house, she really wants to sue, maybe Cheng Yuankai will not only not sentence Xi Tongfang guilty, but will be seized by him to say that she made false accusations and beat her up.
With her old bones, how can she afford it?
Cheng thought about it, but he could only endure the unwillingness in his heart, and sent someone to find Zou and discuss with her about repaying the silver.
Zou was in a hurry to use the silver, and did not agree to repay it after a month, so he proposed that the big house should be used to pay off the debt.
The grain in the grange is about to be bumper and turned into a rich amount of silver, which is enough to pay off half of the debt, so Cheng is naturally reluctant to put the grange on it.
What's more, the grange in the Xi family's big house is worth more than 10,000 taels of silver, how can it be cheaper for the Zou family, the Cheng family resolutely disagrees.
The two women couldn't reach a discussion, and they went to the yamen court again.
However, this time, Cheng Yuankai did not help the Zou family, but helped the Cheng family and agreed to return the Zou family's silver at the end of September.
Zou glared at Cheng angrily several times, but he didn't dare to make trouble in the Yamen court again.
Until Cheng left, Zou went to find Mrs. Cheng, and sued Cheng Yuankai with her aggrievedly and tactfully.
But how did the Zou family know that the reason why Cheng Yuankai helped the Cheng family was because the grange had long been regarded by him as a bag.
There was still a piece of paper between him and Xi Tonglin.
At the beginning, Xi Tonglin borrowed him 5,000 taels of silver, and signed a document with him to make an IOU, which wrote that if Xi Tonglin did not repay the silver for a year, he would use the grange to pay off the debt, the grange has a good terrain, only relying on a river, not worrying about irrigation, even if it rains heavily, it will not be flooded, and it is the best and best good field in Hangzhou.
This is also one of the reasons why Cheng Yuankai would have happily sentenced Xi Tonglin to 30 years in prison.
Xi Tonglin is in prison, he must not be able to pay back this money, and when the time comes, the grange will not be his.
Sanning Lane.
Xi Feng and Ah Niang and Ah Di were all waiting for Xi Tongfang to have dinner, and after waiting for more than half an hour, Xi Tongfang finally came back.
Xi Feng saw that Daddy's face was not very good-looking, so he asked, "Daddy, did the big house look for you?" ”
