Chapter 272: Governing the Family (II)
Su Ning'er smiled lightly and nodded: "It's not impossible, it's just that the days to come will be another way." ”
Lang 13 didn't know what she meant, and wondered, "How is A-Ning going to settle me?" ”
Su Ning'er replied: "The house of Xinghuafang, since it is my filial piety to Uncle Thirteen, if Uncle Thirteen wants to live in the past, I will let people clean it out, if Uncle Thirteen doesn't want to live in the past, I will continue to keep it for you, the rest of the 1,400 yuan, Uncle Thirteen will have to repay his debts in the future, and he will have to take less wages every month, and when Uncle Thirteen repays it clearly, I will ask the account office to distribute it to Uncle Thirteen according to the original salary." ”
"I only have five dollars a month, in addition to eating and drinking, how can I have any money left over to pay off my debts", Lang 13 was depressed: "A Ning, you see that I am this age, and I can live for a few springs and autumns, you want me to repay this money, and when I pay it off, I am afraid that my temples will be gray." ”
"Five-dollar money?" , Suning'er's heart sank, Wan Niang is still the daughter of Shangshu Mansion, under normal times, the monthly money is not consistent, the last time she came over, she was overjoyed, Zhao Yuanbai gave him five times, but he was not satisfied.
She pursed her lips angrily: "Uncle Thirteen heard that he was just doing some miscellaneous work in Zhao Jianning'er, and the monthly money of those stewards in the shop was only consistent, is it possible that Uncle Thirteen still wants to compare with those official eunuchs in the court?" ”
She vaguely remembered that she had read from books before that when Bai Juyi first entered Beijing as an official, his monthly salary was only more than ten yuan.
After thinking about it, she said in a firm tone: "Since San Lang has set a monthly amount for Uncle Thirteen, it is not good for me, as a niece, to be ruthless and deprived of it, and in the future, I will give Uncle Thirteen a consistent amount of money every month, and the rest of the four times will be used to pay off debts." ”
"Just, just keep the money?"
"What, Uncle Thirteen thinks it's too much?"
"That's too much, it's clearly ......."
"If Uncle Thirteen thinks it's inappropriate, San Lang will go down to Yangzhou after the year, and it's not impossible for me to ask San Lang to ask Uncle Thirteen's children for repayment."
"Don't don't, A-Ning, I'll pay it back, I'll pay it back", Lang 13 hurriedly said: "I will definitely try my best to taste your money." ”
After a pause, he looked at Suning'er, and continued with some sneer: "A-Ning, since the house in Xinghuafang is your filial piety to me, and it is also your mother's money, I didn't share the family wealth when I came out of Su Mansion, or you will pay the house for 400 yuan, how about I pay you this 1,000 yuan dowry?" ”
"It's okay", Suning'er pursed her lips and pretended to think, and sighed: "It's just that Uncle Thirteen, at your age, you should always have some property, and you will use the house to pay off the debt, in the future?" ”
As she spoke, she looked at Lang Zhai again: "Brother Lang also wants to marry a wife and have children." ”
"It's okay, it's okay, it's not bad to live in this yard, it's not too late for me and your brother to save enough money to go out and buy a farmhouse."
Suning'er was helpless, he would rather stay in the Zhao family than go back to Su Mansion, there was really no way to take him.
The house in Xinghuafang was originally the silver money taken out by the Qi family, and it still had to be left to him after all.
At this age, the original family was torn apart by him, and the two children were afraid that it would be impossible for them to honor him again, and the only hope was the Su family and Lang Zhai.
It's just that this house, Suning'er can't easily hand it over to him, if he takes it out to gamble again, his thoughts will be in vain.
Lang Zhai is also too docile to be a lord, and all calculations have to fall on her head.
She calmly put the title deed back into her sleeve pocket, and said slowly: "Well, since Uncle Thirteen said so, then I will draw up an IOU for you again, this courtyard San Lang has arranged for Uncle Thirteen to live here, and I don't want to drive you out of the house, so I will lease it to Uncle Thirteen at the price of half a silver dollar in the future." ”
"What, rent it to me?"
Lang 13 was stunned, and said dissatisfiedly: "A-Ning, you are so excessive, I am your uncle, you have to be so cruel to your uncle?" ”
"My brother should also settle accounts, Uncle Thirteen won't understand this truth", Su Ning'er said with a smile: "The Zhao family is now a good time to prosper, if Uncle Thirteen is willing to work hard, he may wish to provide you with some convenient ways to be a niece, as long as Uncle Thirteen takes care of the business in the shop and makes more money at the end of the year, I will not be stingy, and I will definitely allocate more rewards to Uncle Thirteen, so that I can repay this gambling debt as soon as possible." ”
"I ......."
Before Lang Thirteen could speak, he let Lang Zhai block back.
Lang Zhai looked at each other with warm eyes and said: "What Sister Ning'er said is very true, and the arrangement is very proper, please rest assured, Sister Ning'er, in the future, we will definitely pay a lot of money to the account room, and Uncle Thirteen and I will also try our best to make the shop's business more profitable." ”
After thinking for a moment, he continued: "And my salary will also be given according to the thirteenth uncle, and the rest will be used to repay the thirteenth uncle's debts." ”
Su Ning'er nodded with satisfaction, although Lang Zhai didn't have any bad habits, Zhao Yuanbai treated him very generously, and the money he gave every month was also according to Lang Thirteen's routine.
It's just that he, the elder brother of the Lang family, is too honest and responsible, and he remembers the kindness of Lang Thirteen who rescued him from the fire pit of the Lang family, and he is also obedient to him.
If you keep some more money on you, I'm afraid that Lang Thirteen will be misappropriated in the end.
She redrafted a note, and Lang 13 signed it full of resentment, so she put away the note and left.
Not long after waiting for her to leave, Zhao Pingguang heard that his daughter-in-law led the slave to the courtyard of Lang Thirteen, and followed him with suspicion.
Seeing Lang Shisan's depressed face, after asking, he complained: "I said that the elder brother of the Lang family, your niece is also a little arrogant, and it is just a matter of not letting me be the continuation of my father-in-law, after all, you are his biological uncle, and after all these years of saddle for the Su family, it is just a few days of comfortable life, and now I still have that nest of anger when I come to my Zhao Mansion." ”
Then he ordered his subordinates to make a table of wine and food, and the two brothers began to complain to each other again.
Zhao Pingguang didn't expect Suning'er to be so ruthless to his uncle, and chattered endlessly: "Brother Lang, you don't have to be angry, Ning girl is ruthless, I, as an old brother, can't watch you be wronged, after all, you were invited to the house by my son, isn't it just a thousand pieces of silver, and people like us won't deny it for this money." ”
"Brother Pingguang, you have received this kindness Lang Mou's heart", Lang 13 held the wine glass and looked at him with heavy eyes: "It's just that you don't take charge of this family, if you make me tired, I will be even more unhappy." ”
"Is it really that serious?" , Zhao Pingguang said indignantly: "Could it be that Ning girl still dares to break my monthly salary?" ”
"After all, you are his father-in-law, and the biological father of San Lang and these children, she naturally doesn't dare to be disrespectful to you", Lang 13 sighed: "I know the character of my niece best, and if I annoy her again, I'm afraid it will be another matter if our brothers will have to drink so freely together in the future." ”
Zhao Pingguang was remorseful and resentful, he had no intention of pulling Lang 13 in, he just wanted to use his name to make Suning'er give in, but he never thought that he would be in such a pitiful situation, and he had to bring food from the kitchen house for a drink.
This kind of hospitality has never been experienced in his Zhao family.
