Chapter 119: New Year's Resolution
When I arrived at the gate of Fenglin Garden, I saw five or six men with big shoulders and round waists standing in the courtyard, with axes and knives pinned to their waists, all of them were not very impatient, walking back and forth in the courtyard.
The lights were on in the wing, and Xie Changli was guarding the door, it should be Sheng Yanqing negotiating with the leader inside.
Shen Yu wanted to go in, but Xie Changli said: "Grandma, the second master has instructed you to say that it is inconvenient for you to come forward for this kind of thing, just leave it to him." ”
Indeed, Shen Yu is a woman, and if she wants her to deal with these outlaws, she is also weak in her heart.
Shen Yu was really relieved, so she stood by the door and waited.
It was the end of the day, and although there were golden fireworks in the sky, it was still very cold at night.
Xie Changli saw that Shen Yu was not wearing a coat, and proposed: "Grandma, the second master is in the living room, if you are really worried, you can go to the side hall and wait." ”
The wings are connected, and the rooms on both sides of the living room have their own doors, Shen Yu entered the side hall lightly, and sat down on a pear wood chair behind the screen.
Through the screen, she could clearly hear the conversation of the people outside.
The man who asked for the account was a lean man in his forties, with a beard and a long scar on his cheek.
He sat on the chair in a big way, looking at Erlang's legs, and his feet shook again and again.
Sheng Yanqing was looking at a crumpled note, and before he could finish reading it, the man led by him said: "Second master, your Sheng family is also a big family in Qingshui Town, so you won't owe debts and not pay them back." This IOU was written by Sheng Yanwei himself, and dozens of people testified, and you can't rely on it. ”
Probably because he was afraid that Sheng Yanqing would not admit the account, he added at the end: "I, Hu Si, am also mixed up in the Tao, I don't know how much this kind of account has been collected, if you want to blame Sheng Yanwei for gambling with red eyes, and it is natural to repay debts." ”
Sheng Yanqing was unmoved, still reading the IOU word by word from beginning to end, and at the end, he raised his eyes and glanced at the man opposite coldly.
The crumpled IOU fell from his hand and fell lightly to the ground.
Hu Si's eyes widened, and he watched the IOU fall at his feet, and stood up with a slap on the table.
He spat and shouted at Sheng Yanqing: "Sheng Yanqing, don't toast and don't eat and drink, Lao Tzu is kind enough to break with you one by one, don't treat Lao Tzu's kindness as a donkey's liver and lungs!" ”
Sheng Yanqing also stood up, he stood with his hands in his hands, and the two looked at each other.
Shen Yu pinched a handful of sweat for Sheng Yanqing, and she nervously leaned in front of the screen, for fear that Sheng Yanqing would suffer.
Hu Si is a ruffian, this kind of person has no bottom line, Shen Yu can see it clearly, Hu Si has a gun in his waist.
Looking at Hu Si's tense appearance, Sheng Yanqing just chuckled, and he said, "My third brother borrowed five hundred oceans from you, and I won't rely on this." But the date of the loan on the slip is the year before last, and the old account from two years ago, you haven't asked for it once, and you have dragged it until now. Ten little yellow croaker, you also opened your mouth? ”
Hu Si picked up the note on the ground and looked at it twice, he had not encountered this situation before, and still said confidently: "No matter what, it was Sheng Yanwei who borrowed the money, and the interest rate of this money was high, and he knew it when he borrowed it." It's him who doesn't pay it back, what can we do. I, Hu Si, still say the same thing, it is natural to repay debts. ”
"Oh? That being the case, I would like to say that there is a debtor who is wronged, and the account of the second room, you should leave them alone. Sheng Yanqing's sharp gaze swept over Hu Si's face.
Hu Si didn't react for a while, and figured out the meaning of Sheng Yanqing's words, he said viciously: "Okay, this is what you said, if I catch Sheng Yanwei, Lao Tzu wants him to look good." ”
Hu Si was about to leave with an IOU, Sheng Yanqing said in a deep voice: "Slow! ”
Hu Si thought that Sheng Yanqing had repented, and turned around dryly, but unexpectedly, Sheng Yanqing said: "In the future, you remember clearly, the accounts of the Sheng family's two rooms are separated, and if you dare to come to the door to make trouble about the second room, don't blame me for being polite." ”
Hu Si thought that he had heard it wrong, he never thought that the second master of the Sheng family would be so ruthless, leaving Sheng Yanwei's life or death alone, and just wanted to clear up the relationship.
The money did not arrive, and on Chinese New Year's Eve, he was frozen outside the door for most of the day, and Hu Si looked gloomy.
Out of the door, Xie Changli followed, and said: "It's not easy for anyone to celebrate the New Year, you outsiders don't know, the two masters of the Sheng family have not dealt with each other since they were young, and they have been very stiff because of a little thing in business for a while, and they don't talk when they meet, and the second master is afraid that he will wish the third master would make a fool of himself." ”
Hu Si wilted and didn't talk.
Xie Changli sent people all the way to the gate, and finally took out a money ticket and handed it to Hu Si.
He said in a low voice: "This is a hundred oceans, and there is only so much I can spend from the account, you take it first." If the second master knew, he might still be angry. After two days of the New Year's Eve, the second master will go out to talk about business, and it will not be too late for you to talk to the second room about this account. ”
Hu Si had already thought that this trip was in vain, and he suddenly got the money given by Xie Changli, and he was surprised and delighted.
Although there is a lot of difference with the amount owed, it is not empty-handed.
sent away Hu Si's gang, and Xie Changli came to Fenglin Garden to reply to Sheng Yanqing.
Sheng Yanqing nodded slightly, everything was expected by him.
On Chinese New Year's Eve, no one wants to provoke a bad spirit, and this gang of people who want to pay accounts is also in this heart, deliberately coming to block the master's house.
Sheng Yanqing didn't give them this opportunity, sang a white face, and scared them in a few words.
Shen Yu was obviously a little surprised by the turn of the matter, and Sheng Yanqing couldn't have handled this matter more properly.
After a long delay in Fenglin Garden, the time had arrived, and the two did not dare to delay, so they hurriedly returned to Heshoutang.
The old lady just finished playing the cards in her hand, looked up and asked, "Is it time to go, go to the yard and set off fireworks." ”
Mother Tao helped the old lady up, and the crowd went to the courtyard outside.
There were a lot of fireworks in the yard, and the yard was half a person high.
Sheng Yanqing got up and lit the firecrackers hanging on the bamboo poles.
In the sound of firecrackers, Shen Yu covered her ears, and the firelight reflected the faces of the women in the Sheng family's compound, and everyone had a smile on their faces.
The fireworks rose one after another, illuminating the boxy sky above the Sheng family's compound.
Shen Yu glanced at Sheng Yanqing beside her, she looked back at him, and his soft gaze also looked at her.
Shen Yu silently made a New Year's wish in her heart, hoping that she could be with him in the next year.
The Sheng family's fireworks were set off for most of the hour, lighting up the sky above Qingshui Town.
Fireworks are also a symbol of wealth, and the Shen family also spends a lot of fireworks. The fireworks of the two families compete in the sky, each with its own style.
