Chapter 33: Like an Outsider
Under the coercion of Mu Yunqian, Zhang Jincai told in detail how Mu Rou instigated him to use his identity as a shopkeeper to disrupt the order of the money village, and even explained clearly the matter of hiring someone to beat her.
After saying this, Zhang Jincai did not forget to wipe his tears and added: "...... The small one is just a small shopkeeper, and he has to rely on the Mu family to enjoy food, where did he come from so boldly to target the eldest lady! All this was done by the second lady, and the eldest lady was asked to find out! ”
Zhang Jincai knelt on the ground, looking like he had been greatly wronged. Mu Yunqian looked at it from above, and couldn't help sneering in his heart.
"If you are really forced to do these things, why didn't you tell Miss Ben earlier, but didn't say it until now, and after the East Window incident, why did you run away?" Mu Yunqian's words made Zhang Jincai sweat coldly, and he was so anxious that his face turned red.
"Small...... The little one was just afraid of the second lady's revenge, so he didn't dare to say it to the eldest lady......"
"Yes, yes, the slave family's father-in-law has done things for the Mu family for five years, and he has always been the most honest, if it weren't for the second miss of the Mu family who forced my family's father-in-law, how could my family's father-in-law do something sorry for the money village and the eldest lady! If the eldest lady really wants to check, she should also go to the second miss of the Mu family! ”
Zhang Jincai and his wife were really red-mouthed and white-toothed, and they took themselves out of the matter in a few words.
But the flies don't want to stare at the seamless egg, even if Mu Rou has the heart to target her, but if Zhang Jincai doesn't have that kind of mind, how can he fall for Mu Rou's trick?
Mu Yunqian didn't want to listen to Zhang Jincai's words anymore, so he only threw down an IOU and said: "Although Miss Ben has promised you in advance that as long as you tell the truth, Miss Ben will not send you to see the official, but this time the money village has lost a total of 13,700 and 1 coins of silver, and you must make up for this emptiness." ”
"What?!" Zhang Jincai was already stupid when he heard so much money, and now that he was asked to repay so much silver, he was even more desperate and collapsed to the ground.
Zhang Li was stunned for a moment, and was about to open his mouth wide and was about to howl: "Big ......"
As soon as he opened his mouth, Mu Yunqian's eyes swept over, and Zhang Li was so frightened that he didn't dare to make a fuss.
"You don't have to live or die, my Mu family has always been merciful, this silver Miss Ben is limited to you to pay off within three years, according to the three-cent interest, if you don't agree, Miss Ben will immediately call the government to get people." After that, Mu Yunqian made a gesture to get up and walk out.
That Zhang Li was anxious when he saw it, and hurriedly shook Zhang Jincai, who was still stupid, "Xianggong, hurry, press the handprint!" Or you're going to jail! It's better for us to pay off our debts than to go to jail......"
As Zhang Li spoke, he grabbed Zhang Jincai's hand, bit his fingertip hard, and then pressed his handprint heavily on the IOU.
Seeing this, Mu Yunqian went down expressionlessly to pick up the IOU, and then said coldly to the door: "Someone is here." ”
As soon as the words fell, the guys who were waiting outside the door immediately pushed the door and rushed in.
"Zhang Jincai abused his power for personal gain, took advantage of his position to defraud the money of the bank, and now he has completely removed this person from Juyuan Bank, dragged him to the door of the store, and beat him with 20 sticks on the street to set an example." After Mu Yunqian said this, he put away the IOU without looking at Zhang Jincai and his wife, and went out without looking back.
Poor Zhang Jincai and his wife thought that they would be fine if they lost the silver, who would have thought that they would be punished!
After a short period of stunned, Zhang Li hurriedly stood up, "Miss, please be merciful, Miss ......"
The guy who went in quickly stopped Zhang Li's with his eyes, and let Zhang Li's throat be hoarse and no one paid attention to it.
And Mu Yunqian touched the IOU stored on her waist, and secretly thought: This time, she not only cleaned up a tumor in the money bank, but also gave a loan out, which can be regarded as a business for the money bank, right?
Thinking like this, Mu Yunqian's face couldn't help but hook the corners of his lips, and his cold face became soft, but this hard-won softness was fleeting, no one appreciated it, like a flash in the pan, and soon disappeared.
After cleaning up Zhang Jincai, Mu Yunqian's affairs in Qianzhuang also became more and more comfortable, and by the way, he also personally promoted a person of his own from the bottom.
In this way, Mu Yunqian himself will save much effort.
I went home early that day, and as soon as I entered the door, Master Mu sent someone to invite her over.
Mu Yunqian thought that Master Mu was looking for her for something, so she didn't think much about it and followed Yahuan directly to Master Mu's courtyard, only to find that Bai and Mu Rou were both there.
"Yun Qian is here." After seeing Mu Yunqian, Master Mu seemed very happy, and hurriedly beckoned her to sit down.
"Dad is so happy today, but what good happened?" Mu Yunqian didn't pay attention to Mu Rou on the side, but looked at Master Mu with a light smile and asked.
"Haha, as long as our family is harmonious and peaceful, it will be the greatest good thing for Dad!" As he spoke, Master Mu motioned to the subordinate on the side to bring a few boxes up, "Dad saw that you have worked hard to take care of the money village these days, so he specially prepared a gift for you to treat you." ”
As soon as Master Mu finished speaking, the girl ring holding the box hurriedly opened the box and brought it to Master Mu.
Master Mu first pushed a box full of Nanzhu in front of Mu Yunqian and said: "These are the best Nanzhu, Dad saw a caravan passing by a few days ago, so he specially bought it, and this white jade bracelet is for you." ”
Mu Yunqian took the gift handed by Master Mu, and saw that the box was round and full, white as jade, and it was a good product at a glance, not to mention the white jade bracelet, which was crystal clear and flawless, and the halo flowed, if it was placed on the market, it was a priceless treasure.
Mu Yunqian happily accepted, "Thank you, Daddy." ”
"Hmph, now that I have a daughter, I forget about my daughter-in-law......" Bai muttered on the side, pretending to be angry.
"Hahahaha!" Seeing this, Master Mu immediately laughed out loud, and hurriedly got up and took another wooden box over, "How could I forget Madame, come, see if you like this or not." ”
Bai Shi saw that she also had her share, so he immediately smiled and took the wooden box in Master Mu's hand and opened it.
Mu Yunqian curiously stepped forward to take a look, only to see that the wooden box contained a pair of red gold and ruby heads, which was both valuable and in line with Bai's identity.
And this is not enough, I only heard Master Mu whisper in Bai's ear: "There are a few good Shu embroidery, I saw that the material and color are good, so I have sent someone to your room, this is not even a daughter......"
Tut-tut, seeing my father whispering to my mother affectionately, that affectionate and sweet look is simply unsightly.
Mu Yunqian turned his head and drank tea with a smile, while Mu Rou on the side still looked out of place even though her face stiffened with laughter.
