Chapter 125: Signing and Drawing
Early the next morning, before Su Xiaoling and the others got up, there was a knock on the door of "knock knock", she wanted to ignore it, but the other party was very patient, and the knock kept ringing.
In the end, even Zhang Xiuqin woke up, she frowned and pushed Su Xiaoling, and muttered in a low voice: "Xiaoling, go and see, who is outside, like a ghost, annoyed!" ”
"Got it!"
Su Xiaoling got up angrily, didn't even put on her coat, just wore her middle coat, walked to the door barefoot, opened the door with a "bang", her eyes were not open, and she shouted angrily with a stinky face: "What are you doing, I didn't finish knocking early in the morning, I don't know if we are sleeping!" ”
"Xiaoling."
The voice was soft, and he called his name directly......
Su Xiaoling rubbed her eyes, sobered up a little, and when she opened her eyes to take a closer look, she opened her mouth wide in surprise by the person in front of her, and stammered hello, "Wan, Wanrou sister, what's the matter..... How are you? ”
In the end, Su Xiaoling couldn't get over her face, and in front of Xia Wanrou, she immediately shouted angrily at the maid on the side: "What! Sister Wanrou just let her in when she comes, and what are you knocking on? What you can't see with your eyes deserves to be a slave for the rest of your life! ”
After the lesson, she immediately changed her face, looked at Xia Wanrou with a smile, and flattered: "Sister Wanrou, why did you come early in the morning, is there something important?" ”
In fact, after having a big fight with Su Xiaoman last night, she also regretted it in her heart, but for the sake of face and money, she had to make another fuss so that Xiaoman could lend her money.
"Xiaoling, our store has just opened in the past two days, and we are very busy, so we don't have much time to entertain you." Xia Wanrou entered the room by herself and said softly: "So, if you don't have anything else, you might as well go back first." ”
As soon as she heard this, Xiao Ling's face changed, and she didn't speak as affectionately as Fang Cai, "Sister Wanrou, what do you mean by this?" ”
Xia Wanrou was still smiling softly, she withdrew the people behind her, and when only the two of them were left in the room, she said: "Although you keep saying that Xiaoman is ungrateful, I have been with her for so long, and I know very well who she is, so I know that you are doing this to let her lend you money." ”
Su Xiaoling sat down unceremoniously, rolled her eyes, and didn't speak.
Yesterday she was very angry, there was no way, otherwise she wouldn't have tore her face with Su Xiaoman in front of so many people, after all, she is so rich, and she can help herself more in the future.
If you want to blame, you can only blame Su Xiaoman for not giving himself face.
Anyway, Su Xiaoman is a high-ranking general's wife, she is just a peasant woman from the village, she must pay more attention to face than herself, since this is the case, she will destroy the things that the other party values the most.
She originally wanted to hit Xiaoman's slippery tire directly, but she didn't expect that there were so many people around her to protect her, and when she thought of this, Su Xiaoling hated it.
Just thinking about it, Xia Wanrou's voice sounded.
"But after all, you and Xiaoman are relatives, and they have lived together for so many years, it is impossible for her to really not lend you a penny, what she is angry about is just your attitude, if you give her a reasonable explanation from the beginning, she will not be like this."
When Su Xiaoling heard this, her heart moved, and she immediately talked to the other party affectionately, "Sister Wanrou, then you mean that she is willing to lend us money?" ”
For a face-changing expert like Su Xiaoling, Xia Wanrou had nothing to say, she didn't feel disgusted in her heart, but in order to send these two people away, she had to smile at each other: "Xiaoman went out of the city early in the morning to see the fabric, I'm afraid I won't have time to see you." ”
Without waiting for Su Xiaoling to change her face, she said again: "But when she left, she left a hundred taels of silver and an IOU, as long as you signed the IOU." If you press the mudra, you can take the hundred taels. ”
"Didn't you say two hundred taels, why is it suddenly less than half? And it's all a family, how can you still get these things, how hurtful your feelings! Su Xiaoling complained in a low voice.
Besides, Su Xiaoman is so rich, why does she even have to care about a hundred taels, if she doesn't pay it back by then, does she really want to go to the government to sue herself?
Seeing this, Xia Wanrou patiently explained: "Xiaoman hasn't been here for a long time, and she really doesn't have much silver, just this one hundred taels of silver is still scraped together by her, something is better than nothing, and I hope Miss Su doesn't mind." ”
"Well, this is the IOU, I also brought the ink and pen, and I ask Miss Su to sign it as soon as possible, so that I can go home as soon as possible to make a sound."
Looking at the IOU handed to her, Su Xiaoling couldn't help but glance at it, the items on it were clear, and they were the same as the loans.
If you don't get the money for yourself, forget it, and get an IOU when you come, Su Xiaoman must have been in Beijing for a long time!
She became more and more unhappy in her heart, and her mouth pouted, "What does Sister Xiaoman mean by this, it's too raw, I don't know if I think we are not a family with her." ”
Xia Wanrou thought to herself when she heard this, you don't want to think about what you did yesterday, is that something that a family can do?
Thinking about it, she still explained with a smile on her face: "This is just a formality, otherwise the house will rashly spend a hundred taels of silver, if Lu Li comes back, there is no way to explain to him, right?" Miss Su, sign it quickly, I will hand over the money to you after signing, and then take advantage of the fact that it is still early, and the girl and the eldest mother should hurry early. ”
"Hey, then I... I'll have to talk to my mom about it. ”
As she spoke, Su Xiaoling grabbed the IOU and ran into the bedroom in the back room.
The two rooms are so close to each other, and there is no wall in between, Zhang Xiuqin in the house has already heard the conversation between the two clearly, and she was muttering in her heart, so Su Xiaoling came in.
Without waiting for Su Xiaoling to speak, Zhang Xiuqin said: "I've heard this, what do you think Su Xiaoman is trying to do?" ”
If she didn't want to lend herself money, then there was no need to make these things, and if she did sign it, wouldn't she be angry? But if you are sincere in wanting to lend yourself money, then what do you do with IOUs?
"Mother, anyway, it's only one hundred taels of silver, and it won't take long for my man to earn it, I think I can sign it." Su Xiaoling looked like she was swearing, "Besides, even if we don't pay it back by then, can Su Xiaoman really sue us?" Even if she dared to sue, my father wouldn't let her sue. ”
After all, there is still Su Qi, if something really happens, they will go to Su Qi to cry, and then let Su Qi persuade Su Xiaoman, and this matter will definitely pass in a daze.
Zhang Xiuqin nodded after listening, "Okay, this trip will not run in vain, one hundred taels is one hundred taels, sign it, Xiaoling, you sign it!" ”
"Mother, it's better for you to sign," Su Xiaoling smiled and handed over the paper and pen, "If something really happens, she won't be embarrassed to sue you, right?" ”
How could Zhang Xiuqin not know her daughter's thoughts, but what the other party said also makes sense, just sign it, anyway, the son-in-law is very powerful, and he will definitely be able to earn this money back!
Soon, the mother and daughter signed, pressed their handprints, and received a hundred taels of silver from Xia Wanrou, and finally packed up their packages and went home.
Seeing that the mother and daughter left the Wei Mansion, Xia Wanrou summoned the guards of the Wei Mansion and solemnly ordered: "Follow the mother and daughter carefully, you must send them back to Bishui Village safely, and then see what they are going to do with the money, and then come back and report to me after everything is clear." ”
The guard took the order and replied, "Yes!" ”
After doing all this, Xia Wanrou let out a long breath, returned to the main hall, looked at Su Xiaoman and nodded, "The people have already left, and I have sent someone to follow, so you can always rest assured now." ”
Xiao Man stepped forward and held Xia Wanrou's hand, "Thank you, Sister Wanrou." ”
She said that she wanted to cut off the relationship with the mother and daughter, but she was always relieved in her heart, her father was old, and she still needed the care of these two people at home, she offended these two people early, and her father's life was not easy.
"You, it's just a knife mouth and tofu heart, and after making trouble for so many days, haven't you lent them money?" Xia Wanrou sat down, picked up the teacup and said leisurely.
Su Xiaoman sighed, but didn't argue anything like before.
More than half a month has passed, Xiaoman is preoccupied, anyone with a discerning eye can see what she is worried about, Xia Wanrou has also persuaded her, but it is only a symptom but not a cure.
It wasn't until the guards sent by Xia Wanrou came back that Su Xiaoman, who had been silent for nearly a month, finally showed a different look from the past and hurried to the Wei Mansion.
As Su Xiaoling said, her man does follow the caravan to do business, but it is not as exaggerated as she said, but it is all a small business, which is indeed lighter than planting crops to make money.
Su Qi is not sick either, the so-called old diseases are all made by Zhang Xiuqin, who wants to cheat Xiaomanqian out of money, and the two of them go to help Su Xiaoling from time to time, occasionally bickering, but there is no major contradiction.
The family is also happy, not rich, but it is better than the previous days.
Xiao Man sighed after hearing this, and was silent sideways for a while before revealing a forced smile, "That's good, that's good." ”
Seeing this, Xia Wanrou waved her hand to let the guards go down, and then she patted her on the back lightly and said with a smile: "Now I can always rest assured, and I can also be busy with the affairs of the store with peace of mind, but the business of the store is getting better and better during this time, Xiaoman, can we open another one?" ”
No one in the city is secretly stumbling anymore, Xiaoman and Xia Wanrou are busy with all their might, the business of the store is becoming more and more prosperous, Xiaoman has recruited a group of embroiderers, but this is still in short supply.
Xiao Man was about to speak, when Wei Xiuyuan's voice suddenly came from the door.
The people in the room couldn't help but look sideways, only to see Wei Xiuyuan walking into the main hall quickly, with unconcealed joy on his face, "Lu Li just won a beautiful battle!" The news was transmitted back to Beijing, and the emperor said that he would be rewarded! ”
