Chapter 271: Governing the Family (Medium)
Suning'er led Shuang'er and Qin'er in, and Lang Zhai sat in the hall with his head buried tightly, looking listless and mournful.
Hearing the footsteps, he saw that it was Suning'er, so he quickly got up and saluted, and said with a shameful face: "Sister Ning'er is here, I am persuading Uncle Thirteen to come over." ”
Su Ning'er listened to the cry in the back room very sadly, not like she was pretending, the anger in her heart immediately disappeared a lot, Tong Lang Zhai shook her body, and asked softly: "Brother Lang, is the thirteenth uncle okay?" ”
"Uncle Thirteen didn't sleep all night, and when it was almost dawn today, he told me to get up and pack my luggage, saying that I was going back to Yangzhou, I packed my bags, and then went to call him, and he cried bitterly, and he cried until now, and he hadn't eaten yet."
Suning'er nodded thoughtfully, and looked at the room again, and sure enough, there were two bags on the soft couch in the corner.
She immediately realized that the thirteenth uncle said that he wanted to go back to Yangzhou was false, but he was acting miserably.
Their uncle and nephew have long lost their home in Yangzhou, and now they have lost all their money, and they don't even have the money to go back, so how can they go back.
She said to Lang Zhai: "I don't have to go back to Yangzhou, the elder brother of the Lang family and the thirteenth uncle finally settled down in this Chang'an City, so it would be a pity to go back." ”
"Hey, don't hide it from Sister Ning'er, the thirteenth uncle of Sufu doesn't want to go back either", Lang Zhai looked bitter.
Su Ning'er naturally knew that he refused to return to Su Mansion, and Zhao Yuanbai sent him to worship him in the Zhao family, so he was willing to leave on such a comfortable day.
If something like this happens, let alone the Zhou family, I'm afraid Su Jing won't be able to accept it in his heart.
One thousand pieces of silver is enough to buy the entire Su family's mansion, and if this goes on for a long time, no one can withstand it.
She pulled the corners of her mouth and smiled bitterly: "I didn't tell Uncle Thirteen to go back to Su Mansion, the money he owed in the Zhao family last time has not been repaid, how can the Zhao family be willing to let him go." ”
After Suning'er finished saying this, the crying in the house suddenly stopped, and after a while, it sounded again.
Lang Zhai was stunned for a while, and said, "Sister Ning'er, then, then you want it?" ”
"Please ask the elder brother of the Lang family to ask the thirteenth uncle to come out, I have something to say to him."
Lang Zhai went into the house, and after a long time, he finally invited Lang Thirteen out.
Lang 13 pinched a handkerchief and sat down on the seat above like a little lady, crying silently.
Suning'er looked at him quietly for a long time, glanced at Tongshuang'er, and then said to Lang Thirteen: "Uncle Thirteen has worked hard all night, I'm afraid I haven't had breakfast yet, my body is important, hurry up and use some food, don't get tired." ”
Then let Shuang'er bring the food to him and watch him eat it with a solemn expression.
Lang Thirteen drank a few mouthfuls of porridge, and his eyes were teary again: "Ah Ning, Uncle Thirteen is sorry for you, I'm sorry for San Lang, if it weren't for the fact that you just got married and didn't have someone to support you, my old face really has no place to rest, I really want to die headlong." ”
Su Ning'er only felt funny in her heart, when she was embarrassed by Zhao Pingguang's father and daughter, he couldn't see half a shadow, but at this time, he said such beautiful empty words, he was really a good uncle.
She said slowly: "It's just a thousand pieces of silver, Uncle Thirteen doesn't have to take it too seriously, no matter how much money he earns, it's not all used for it, as long as it's used in a good way." ”
"A-Ning, do you really think so?" , Lang Thirteen was happy, immediately wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, and looked at her with a smile.
"Of course", Suning'er replied: "It's already over, and there's nothing to worry about." ”
Lang 13 was overjoyed, put down the chopsticks in his hand, and said with a smile: "I know that it is your mother and A Ning that you care about me the most, I really don't know how to thank your mother and daughter." ”
Su Ning'er unhurriedly took out the prepared note from her sleeve, and said with a smile: "It's good that Uncle Thirteen can read that his mother is worried about you, you still have to be diligent in the future, don't worry about your mother, she is the eldest sister-in-law after all." ”
She didn't have a good time to say the latter words, she said that the eldest sister-in-law was like a mother, but she was not a mother after all.
Handing the IOU to Shuang'er and handing it over, she continued: "Uncle Thirteen lost a total of 1,400 pieces of silver in these two gambling dollars, I heard that when the second uncle bought the house in Guangdefang, he only spent these silver dollars, and the 400 guan was saved by my mother's diligence and thrift, and now this 1,000 guan is allocated from my dowry, and Uncle Thirteen signed and pledged on this IOU, and slowly deducted it from his salary every month to repay it." ”
"Repay?" , Lang Thirteen's happy face immediately turned gloomy again, and said urgently: "The four hundred yuan, after your mother sent it over, San Lang has destroyed the note, how can you come to repay it today, A-Ning, and besides, didn't Yuan Bai use that money to buy a house for you, how did it depend on my head again?" ”
Su Ning'er took out the title deed of the house in Xinghuafang in her arms and put it on the table: "This house Saburo did say that it was bought for Uncle Thirteen and handed it over to my mother for safekeeping, but this money was saved by my mother, and the money lost by Uncle Thirteen was filled in by San Lang, Uncle Thirteen, if you don't remind me, I forgot it, this horizontal and vertical sum Ning'er is still 400 yuan less, it seems that I have to re-establish the note." ”
"Don't don't, A-Ning, I'm your own uncle, your father's ashes were brought back from thousands of miles away, you can't do this to your thirteenth uncle", Lang Thirteen grabbed the note, held it in his hand, and begged for mercy in a low voice.
"Okay, Uncle Thirteen does have this unforgettable credit to our mother and daughter", Suning'er spread her palms on the title deed and said with a smile: "Then it's still 1,400 yuan, and the remaining 400 yuan will be allocated from the dowry and returned to the Zhao family, which is my filial piety to you." ”
Lang 13 said disapprerovingly: "Why do you need to care about these things between your husband and wife, and San Lang didn't say that he wanted me to pay back this money?" ”
Suning'er squinted her eyes: "You men are always very arrogant, no matter how much money you have, you just care about throwing it out for a while, how can you understand the difficulties of this family, even if you don't have to calculate the accounts too clearly between husband and wife, but don't forget Uncle Thirteen, these three rooms are not only San Lang." ”
"A-Ning, don't laugh, don't think that I don't know about the thirteenth uncle, the old lady handed over the power of the housekeeper to you yesterday, I am your biological uncle, but I just made some money, do they still want to find you to calculate this account, not to mention your dowry, the Zhao family has a big business, how can they be stingy and calculate your dowry."
Suning'er saw that he didn't have any intention of repenting at all, and his words were full of luck and schadenfreude, and he was even more angry, and said solemnly: "Uncle Thirteen, since you have said this, don't blame the ruthlessness of being a niece, today Ning'er will also talk about it, if Uncle Thirteen really goes back to Yangzhou, then it's okay, Ning'er is willing to be more generous and give you some silver money to do entanglement, but from now on, my mother and I will not ask you anything about anything." ”
After a pause, she examined the thirteenth of the eye waves, and saw that he was listening carefully, so she continued: "Or the thirteenth uncle can go back to the Su Mansion, and I will hand you over to the second uncle......."
Hearing that he was going back to the Su family, he immediately interrupted Su Ning'er and said in a panic: "A Ning, you also know that when I and your brother of the Lang family came to Chang'an City, they pawned and sold the ancestral property of Yangzhou, how can I go back, then I and I will not go back to the Su family." ”
Suning'er stared at him and asked, "In this way, Uncle Thirteen still wants to stay in the Zhao family?" ”
Lang 13 gritted his teeth and nodded heavily.
