Chapter 296: Bad Debts

The lawsuit of the three brothers in the front yard Xiaochun sisters did not dare to participate, so they stayed in the warm pavilion and stayed with their grandparents to be filial piety.

After the two old men slept and changed into new clothes, it was just time for dinner.

Mrs. Jia changed into a navy blue gold silk satin stand-up collar shirt, a dark red placket embroidered with golden chrysanthemums on the outside, a gold thread skirt with matching colors, an embroidered forehead inlaid with jade on her head, her gray hair was meticulously combed, and a simple bun was coiled in the back, and a pair of red gold inlaid jade daffodil hairpins were inserted on both sides of the bun. He wore a pair of red gold bracelets on his hand, and a jade wrench on his thumb.

Mrs. Jia was helped out of the house, and she really looked like an old lady from a big family.

"Grandma will dress up like this in the future, it's so beautiful."

Xiao Xia's sweet mouth, Mrs. Jia was happy to hear it, and reached out and touched her own clothes, which were light and warm on her body, and she looked good, which was really good.

"When I saw my grandmother here today, she was dressed very plainly, and my father sent you a lot of clothes and jewelry like this, why don't you wear them?"

"Did your father send me clothes and jewelry?"

Xiao Xia knew what was going on as soon as he heard it, but he didn't know if the things that his father sent back to the second elder were Shen Cai greedy or Shen Zhi intercepted?

"That's right! My father would send things back to my grandparents every month, including clothes, jewelry, firewood, rice, oil, salt, and all kinds of food. ”

When Mrs. Jia heard this, her face changed at that time, and they received a lot of food, but she did not receive anything worth silver such as clothes and jewelry.

When Xiao Xia helped Mrs. Jia into the dining room of the main hall with a cold face, the atmosphere inside was much better, and Old Man Shen was talking to Shen Wu, who he hadn't seen for two years.

As soon as everyone saw the look of the old lady who walked in, they knew that this was really angry, a sign of an impending storm.

"Mother? What's wrong with you? Seeing that her mother-in-law's face was not good, Wang looked back, and saw that Xiao Wang didn't follow, so he thought that Xiao Wang had made the old lady angry! I've begun to gloat in my heart, since the second room was separated and moved out, her life is considered to have fallen into hell, and after spending it with the second room, will her life be better?

Old Lady Jia glanced at everyone, didn't pay attention to the Wang family at all, and turned to look at Shen Zhong.

"I heard Xiao Xia say that you send me and your father clothes and food every month, and even jewelry worth silver."

Shen Zhong didn't know why, and nodded.

Old Madam Jia's face was even worse, she knew that Shen Zhong would not panic.

"Do you remember what you sent?"

Shen Zhong frowned and thought about it, there were too many things to send, he didn't remember.

"Dad, what do you send back to your hometown every month, where must be registered in the account room, Dad probably forgot, just call Uncle Qing to ask."

Xiao Xia said while paying attention to everyone's expressions, only to see that Shen Cai and Shen Zhi both changed their faces, wouldn't this brother be greedy for Daddy's things together! That's ridiculous.

"Let's eat! It's a shame to talk about that now. Shen Cai grinned widely, seemingly salivating over the food on the table, but in fact he was a thief.

Old Mrs. Jia was stunned.

"Don't be in a hurry to eat first, I want to see what the second child sends us back every month."

After a while, Uncle Qing took the account book and read the list sent back to his hometown every month, and now not only Mrs. Jia's face was not good, but Old Man Shen's face was even worse. And Shen Cai and Shen Zhi were sweating on their foreheads.

Mrs. Jia slapped the table, pointed at everyone and scolded: "Listen, I and your father have two sets of clothes every month, as well as a pair of gold bracelets, a pair of jade bracelets, a red gold hairpin, your father's jade pipe, glass wrench, and ginseng for our two elders to replenish their bodies." Why don't I see any of these things worth silver? ”

Shen Zhong listened to Mrs. Jia's words, and was dumbfounded, they didn't receive the things he gave to his father? Did you encounter a robbery?

"Hurry up and call me Xiao Si, what are they going to do? Met bandits? ”

Xiao Xia sat aside and sneered.

"Dad, if you meet bandits, you can leave something left, I don't think it's a thief, but it looks like a thief."

Naturally, some people are red-faced by Xiao Xia's words, they simply don't admit themselves, and they are looking for Xiao Si to confront them, which is simply embarrassing and thrown home.

Shen Zhong also understood, but he really didn't know what to say. There was silence in the room for a long time before Shen Zhong spoke.

"Big brother, didn't I give you a hundred taels of silver alone every month? This amount of money should be enough for your family. ”

Shen Cai slapped the table and pointed at Shen Zhong and scolded, "Shen Cai, what do you mean?" You say I'm greedy for all these things? Tell you, he Shen Zhi also has a share! ”

Shen Zhiqing's bruised face couldn't be stopped at all, Shen Cai's mouth was too fast.

Xiao Xia was speechless when he looked at Shen Caiyao's martial appearance. Okay, if you conspire with someone else, you are justified?

Old Man Shen knocked on the table.

"Shut up."

I just wanted to take two puffs of cigarette pouches, but I found that I didn't have one in my hand, and I didn't bring the old one at home.

"Whoever you take those things, return them when you find time."

Shen Cai lowered his head and muttered a low retort.

"You don't lack those things now, what more do you want? My mother's dress is decent enough. ”

Mrs. Jia was not happy when she heard this, and her eyes squinted.

"No matter how decent you are, what you prepared for my wife? The old lady dares to be greedy for everything, what else do you dare not do? Rabbit cub, I have to send you to prison for introspection. ”

Mrs. Jia scolded more and more, those are all valuable objects! She hadn't even seen her before, and she was gone.

Shen Cai didn't dare to speak out, and put on a posture that a dead pig was not afraid of boiling water. Shen Zhi on the side didn't know when he had developed an impenetrable cheeky skin, as if he wasn't talking about himself, and sat still calmly.

"Daddy, don't be angry, let's get over this matter! I will let the treasury prepare for my mother again. ”

"That's right! Mother, now that Shen Zhong is capable, what is that bit of silver? Don't take it to heart, let's hurry up and start eating! ”

Seeing Shen Cai's shameless appearance, Old Man Shen couldn't stand it anymore.

"Eat! When you finish eating, you will take your wife and children back to your hometown. ”

"What? Dad, you and your mother are here, where can I go? Don't you still need me to provide for your old age? ”

"Do you still dare to speak? It would be nice if you didn't nibble on the two of us. Tomorrow you will go back! ”

"I'm not leaving, I'm not going anywhere."

"You ......" Old Man Shen was obviously angry, and he was tired all the way, and his body and bones actually couldn't stand it for a long time.

'Ahem...... 'Ahem' made the old man angry, and Shen Cai finally didn't dare to reply, but let him go, it was impossible.

Shen Zhong saw that his father was so angry that he immediately became nervous, and he just wanted to say a few words about his eldest brother, but he was interrupted.
