Aunt Shen's surprise was undisguised, and in Hao Yu's eyes, she felt a chill.

Sure enough, he's in trouble!

Even my mother can't accept such a large number, if my father knows it, what will be waiting for him?

Hao Yu was silent, sitting on the side in a daze, his mind was muddy and empty, and he didn't know what to do or what to do to solve the current predicament.

He really wants to do a good job, and I don't know why it's getting worse and worse.

Could it be that even God is protecting the eldest brother? Why does no matter what the eldest brother does, he is a success, and he should fail like this?

Aunt Shen came back to her senses, and then looked at Hao Yu's speechless expression, how could she not know the truth of this matter?

Eighty thousand taels! It's not eight hundred taels! Even when she first got married, the dowry was only a total of 10,000 taels, and if it was converted into cash, it would not be equivalent to so much silver.

Where can I get these 80,000 taels?

Hao Yu lowered his eyebrows, looked at his mother cautiously, and asked tentatively: "Mother, do you have any silver, can you lend me a temporary turnover?" Just take a little bit of silver, and when my friend's goods come back, the money will be paid back quickly. It's just 80,000 taels of silver, and when the goods change hands and are sold, hundreds of thousands of taels of silver are also trivial. ”

Aunt Shen looked at Hao Yu angrily, an idiot son, didn't he know that he had been cheated by someone? Why do you want to keep throwing money into it? I'm afraid that this is a meat bun beating a dog, and some of them go, but they can't get back, right?

Aunt Shen frowned, and said solemnly: "Yu'er, where is your friend now?" ”

When Hao Yu heard this, he looked at his mother vigilantly, "Mother, why are you asking about this?" ”

Aunt Shen said: "Yu'er, according to my mother, I am afraid that you have been deceived by your friends!" Even if you invest more silver taels into it, you still won't have to turn back a single piece of silver, and it is impossible to make money! ”

Hao Yu shook his head and said: "Mother, you believe me, my friend told me, and I have also seen their goods, they are all genuine, and they are first-class goods, as long as the ship docks smoothly, I will definitely return the silver to you soon." Mother, can you help me once? I also want to show myself in front of my father, and I don't want my father to think that I am inferior to my eldest brother. Mother, are you really not helping me? ”

Hao Yu looked sad, and asked Aunt Shen over and over again, asking her if she wanted to help him.

Aunt Shen was very embarrassed, on the one hand, she couldn't be completely sure that the incident was fake with her experience, but on the other hand, she doubted his authenticity, she had already lost 80,000 taels, if she lost more, what would she explain to the master?

Seeing that Aunt Shen was hesitating, Hao Yu suddenly knelt down in front of Aunt Shen with a puff, and asked pitifully: "Mother, you should be kind, you should pull your son again and help me, okay?" Otherwise, how can the 80,000 taels of silver be compensated? If my father knew, what would my father think of me? Dad is the most important reputation of Haofu, can this Haofu still have anything to do with me in the future? ”

Hao Yu's words really poked Aunt Shen's sore spot.

Indeed, she knows the master's temper very well, if the master knows that Hao Yu has lost so much, God knows how the master will punish him, even if he is not kicked out of the door of the Hao Mansion, he can only be an idle son for the rest of his life, and it is absolutely impossible for him to take over the business of the mansion again.

Aunt Shen's eyes were red, and she almost wanted to cry, she looked at Hao Yu with a sigh, and said sadly: "My son, my mother has always known that you are a very smart child, how could you do such a stupid thing this time?" ”

"Mother, the child knows it's wrong, and the child really knows it's wrong."

Hao Yu threw herself on Aunt Shen's lap and cried bitterly.

Aunt Shen wiped the tears under her eyes, and asked resolutely, "Yu'er, tell your mother, how much do you still lack?" If your mother can help, your mother will try to help you, and if your mother can't do anything, you don't have to complain about your mother. ”

Hao Yu was very excited when he heard this, and hurriedly stepped forward and said a number in Aunt Shen's ear.

Aunt Shen's face turned pale again, but seeing her son's pale and helpless eyes, she could only sigh and nodded softly and sadly, "Okay, my mother knows, don't worry, my mother will make up the money tomorrow, and I will hand it over to you tomorrow night." ”

Hao Yu believed in his mother very much, and when he heard his mother say that he could get the money together tomorrow night, a big stone that had been wandering in his heart for many days finally fell. He hurriedly said a few good words in front of his mother, saying that when he became rich in the future, he would definitely be filial to his mother, and he would definitely make his mother the most proud lady in the entire Taihe County.

Aunt Shen was silent, now she is the most proud lady in Taihe County, can she be better than her in the future? To be honest, she didn't believe it at all.

However, if you don't believe it, when her son needs help, she, a mother, can only resolutely choose to give everything she has to help her son get through the difficulties.

Hearing Hao Yu say so many obedient words, Aunt Shen was tired of hearing it, so she waved her hand at him and said softly: "Okay, it's late today, your mother and I are tired, you go back first, I want to take a rest." ”

Seeing that Aunt Shen's face was not very good, Hao Yu didn't dare to stay longer, so he had to say two more good words and withdrew.

When she was young, Shen's mother came over with a stewed soothing soup, knocked on the door and went in only to find that Hao Yu was not there.

"Madam, do you want to send this tranquilizing soup slave maid to the second young master's courtyard now?" Mother Shen asked Aunt Shen.

Aunt Shen raised her head to look at Mother Shen, beckoned, and sighed: "No need, let me drink this soup, now I am the one who needs to be calmed the most." ”

Mother Shen was stunned, she didn't know what happened, but she still obediently followed Aunt Shen's instructions and gave the cup of soothing soup to Aunt Shen to drink.

After Aunt Shen drank the soothing soup, she said that she was not in good spirits today, so she didn't go to the dining room for dinner and rested directly.

Shen's mother asked Aunt Shen a few words with concern, but Aunt Shen didn't say a word to Shen's mother, only asked her to wait in the outer room, and didn't let anyone disturb her rest.

Mother Shen is Aunt Shen's confidant, and Aunt Shen has never hidden anything from Mother Shen. This time, she didn't tell Shen's mother anything, and Shen's mother secretly said in her heart, it seems that this time the matter is not simple. However, as long as Aunt Shen still needs help, sooner or later she has to tell her, otherwise, who will run errands for her?

In the evening, in the dining room, after the Hao family sat down, only Aunt Shen did not arrive.

The old lady was full of unhappiness, and asked in a deep voice, "Why didn't Xiu'er come?" ”

Master Hao hurriedly explained: "Mother, let's eat first, Xiu'er said that she was unwell today and it was inconvenient to come to the dining room to eat, so she used it in her own room." ”

The old lady snorted lightly and pouted: "It's just that she has big rules, but she just has a small problem, so she doesn't come to dinner!" Hum...... In the past, I was sick for three days, and I don't know what tricks I played this time. ”

Because of the infighting with Wan Niang, Aunt Shen has indeed pretended to be sick two or three times, and this time even if she is really uncomfortable, no one believes her.

Hao Yu listened to the old lady's words with indignation, he wanted to say two good words for his mother, saying that his mother was really unwell and did not deliberately pretend to be sick. After thinking about it again, I felt that it was not appropriate for me to say these words now, so I had to bury the words in my stomach deeply.

Since he knew about Hao Yu, Ding Yezi would secretly look at Hao Yu from time to time, always wondering where the huge amount of 80,000 taels was spent. She tried to ask Hao Ling, but the matter has not yet been concretely determined, Hao Ling didn't want to do much, so he didn't tell her anything, just let her take care of herself and don't worry about business.

Ding Page wanted to say that she didn't want to worry, she was just gossiping.

Seeing that the old lady said that Aunt Shen was unwell, Hao Yu's lips moved, but she didn't say anything, and Ding Yezi secretly guessed in her heart.

Could it be that Aunt Shen already knows about Hao Yu? So as soon as I was stimulated by 80,000 taels of silver, I suddenly became ill?

Not...... If that's the case, although she feels a little sympathetic to Aunt Shen, it seems to be quite good. For a wicked person like Aunt Shen, she can't clean her up, and it's the same if she has her own biological son to make trouble for her.

It's a pity that Hao Fu also suffered.

In the old lady's dissatisfied chatter, the dinner was successfully eaten.

After dinner, the old lady left Hao Ling and Ding Yezi behind, and naturally Gu Yun also stayed.

When Hao Ling came back in the evening, someone had already told him about the afternoon, and he probably understood in his heart what the old lady was looking for him, and Ding Yezi and Gu Yun understood it even more in their hearts.

The old lady sat alone in the main seat, Hao Ling sat in the upper hand position on the left, Ding Yezi sat in his lower hand, and Gu Yun sat opposite Hao Ling, secretly looking at him from time to time with a shy and afraid of being discovered.

Ding Yezi can't wait to step forward and pinch her twice, really, you can see it if you want to see it, what do you want to do with such a shy little look? Is it true that she, the lady of the main palace, does not exist?

The old lady did not speak, and the others in the room did not dare to speak first.

After waiting for a long time, the old lady spoke: "Ling'er, page, do you know what I called you here for?" ”

Hao Ling, like Ding Page, simply chose to pretend to be stupid first, so as not to respond to all changes.

Hao Ling shook his head and said calmly: "Ancestor, grandson doesn't know. ”

Ding Yezi also shook his head after Hao Ling.

The old lady was angry, huh...... These two people really deserve to be two people, and they pretended to be stupid in front of her together, really, but it happened this morning, don't you remember what happened at night? Isn't this pretending to be stupid?
