Chapter 15: The Secret of the Red Box
The second young master reluctantly walked over.
The old lady grabbed the whip in his hand and said fiercely, "Kneel down for me!" ”
The second young master knelt down reluctantly, but he still held his head high, looking unconvinced.
"Evil beasts! Evil animals! The old lady whipped the second young master a few times, and the second young master screamed a few times in pain.
But the old lady herself was tired enough and panting.
"Old lady, old lady, you dissipate your anger, dissipate your anger. Quick, get medicine for the old lady! Several servants around him hurriedly gathered around and helped the old lady to do it on the chair next to him, and immediately a servant brought hot water and fed the old lady medicine.
"Whew...... Call...... I'm so angry......" The old lady took the medicine, her breath gradually stabilized, and she pointed to the second young master and said, "You evil beast...... He, no matter what he says, is also your brother! ”
"Brother like this, what's the use of keeping it." The second young master said disdainfully: "When he dies, his share will be saved." ”
"Evil Beast...... Evil Beast ...... Why is my Wang family ......" The old lady's face turned pale.
The old servant next to him hurriedly gave the old lady a good breath: "Old lady, dissipate the gas, dissipate the gas, it's not the first time......
After a while, the old lady got up, pointed to the second young master and said, "When I die, you can toss whatever you want, but as long as I live, you are not allowed to be like this...... cough cough cough ......"
The old lady coughed violently.
It took a few more moments to relieve.
He said slowly: "Help me up......"
The old man next to him hurriedly helped the old lady up.
The old lady stood up, looked at Song Nian first, then turned to look at Chu He behind him, and said to Chu He: "Lord Chu, I'm really sorry, the ugly things in the family made you laugh." ”
Chu He said with a smile: "Every family has a scripture that is difficult to read, and it is already good that the old lady can take care of such a big Wang family." ”
The old lady shook her head slightly. Then he pointed to the second young master: "This is my second family...... Son, Wang Shoucai, that is his brother, Wang Shouyi. ”
Song Nian's brain is dark, one is wealthy, the other is righteous, and it is really a good name. But the question is, isn't this kind of name generally given to servants?
"With wealth and righteousness, he deserves to be the first family in the border area." Chu He complimented.
Song Nian's brain is even darker, this Chu River is really ...... The skin is thick enough. Kung fu of patting sycophants, admiration and admiration.
"Okay, Master Chu, I won't be polite to you. Our Wang family, the previous generation...... In short, this generation will be handed over to this grandson. Old lady Wang sighed.
"You mean, this business will be handed over to ...... Your grandson, Wang Shoucai? Let me be a witness? Chu He was a little stunned, which one is this?
"That's not the case, I just told Master Chu that at my age, I don't know how long I can live...... It's just that Lord Chu and my grandson will make an eye for each other, and the future will ...... More on that later. Old lady Wang coughed a few more times.
"Brother Chu!" The second young master of the Wang family arched his hand with a big grin.
"Brother Wang." Chu He could only arch his hand.
In fact, according to etiquette, where does the second young master of the Wang family cooperate with Chu He to call him a brother and a brother?
"Okay, if there is such an ugly thing in the family today, there will be no more left." Old lady Wang coughed a few times.
Chu He glanced at Song Nian.
Song Nian nodded slightly.
Chu He smiled and said, "Since that's the case, we won't bother." ”
"Come, come, I'll see you off." The second young master of the Wang family jumped up directly from the ground and walked to Chu He in front of them to lead the way.
As soon as he walked out of the first courtyard, the second young master suddenly turned around and looked at Song Nian with squeezing his eyebrows: "Miss Song, Xiaomei's kung fu is not bad, right?" I taught it myself. ”
Song Nian's face darkened: "If you say this again, I will let Lord Chu behead you." ”
The second young master shrank his head, and said with a smile: "Miss Song, why are you doing this, it's not something unsightly." ”
The maid Xiaomei followed behind, bowing her head and blushing, not daring to speak.
"Alright, Hugh is presumptuous!" Chu He frowned.
The second young master suddenly didn't dare to speak.
Seeing that he was about to reach the door, Song Nian suddenly asked, "Why are you ...... Want to beat your brother? ”
"He's my brother, too? Bah! The second young master spat out a mouthful of phlegm.
Song Nian was suddenly disgusted.
Damn, is this the virtue of the current heir of the most tyrant Wang family in the northwest borderlands?
……
Looking at Chu He from afar, Song Nian got into the carriage, and the old lady Wang suddenly stood up, and at this time, he was out of breath.
"Let's go, go and see this Lord Chu, the great gift for us!"
Through the hall and alleys, the old lady Wang took her old servant and came to the treasury of the Wang family.
"Old lady, everything is in there." A servant respectfully opened the door.
Old lady Wang walked in, in the center of the gloomy warehouse, on the empty ground, the wooden boxes sent by Chu He were lined up and placed on the ground.
"Go, check the silver ticket."
As soon as the old lady spoke, an account office immediately stepped forward, opened the jujube box, took out the empty silver ticket and various signed stubs, and carefully examined it.
These silver tickets have exclusive marks and anti-counterfeiting marks, for fear of being forged by others.
Then he took out the seal again and checked it carefully......
After a while, the bookkeeper said: "Back to the old lady, the silver tickets are all right, and the accounts we reported monthly on the Guangqiu Silver Account are the same number." ”
"Well, okay, this silver ticket is in the account...... I'll talk about Guangqiu's affairs later. Old lady Wang coughed twice: "Okay, you guys go down." ”
"Yes, old lady." The others went down, and the bookkeeper also went out with the silver ticket and the jujube box.
"Close the door, the rest of the things, you come." The old lady coughed and said to the old servant beside him.
The old servant closed the doors and windows, walked to the mahogany box, carefully opened the mahogany box, took out the golden bun inside, and put it on the ground.
Then, he lightly pressed a few times around the mahogany box, and he didn't know what mechanism he touched, and the wide mahogany box clicked and fell apart.
In the dim light, it can be clearly seen that after the collapse of these mahogany boxes, the original boxes are full of cracks around them.
In the cracks, half-inch large blocks of wax are stuffed.
The old servant took out a wax block, gently opened a corner, and sniffed: "Old lady, the thing is right." ”
The old lady looked at these mahogany boxes and sighed: "Evil, evil!" ”
The old servant was silent.
After a while, the old lady fell silent and waved his hand: "That's it, that's it, it's all fate!" It's all fate, these things, enough for them to use for a long time. ”
The old servant whispered, "Yes." ”
Then, the old servant dismantled all the remaining mahogany boxes, took out all the wax blocks and put them away, and then assembled the mahogany boxes to restore them to their original state, and put the golden buns back in.
The old lady sighed.
"Old lady, what do you mean by this Lord Chu sending us these ......?" The old servant was a little puzzled.
