Chapter 139: Money begets money
Wei Shi was stunned by this smile and did not dare to say another word.
watched Shen Sangyu disappear in front of the carriage.
He was so angry that he slammed the board of the carriage, and as a result, he grinned in pain.
"Damn little slut," Wei was furious, "when I have scraped together enough money, I will ask Prince Shuo to withdraw from your marriage, and see how proud you are!"
After scolding, he squeezed out a smile and instructed the groom, "Go back to Bohou's Mansion and go around Wutong Lane." ”
The groom was a little puzzled, "But madam, at this hour, there are the most people in Wutong Lane, and if the carriage passes, it may be blocked for a long time." ”
But Wei just wants to be blocked.
If she returns to the Bohou Mansion soon, who can know about her coming out of the palace with a red face?
"I told you to go around, what so much nonsense. Wei said impatiently.
The groom didn't dare to offend the Wei family, so he had to follow his words and drive the carriage to the crowded Wutong Alley.
And this one, Shen Sangyu went to buy a few beef pot helmets and led them to meet the old naughty boy.
The old urchin happily welcomed her into the pharmacy.
"I smelled the fragrance from afar, and I guessed that you brought me something delicious, and I guessed correctly. ”
As he spoke, he took out a pot helmet from the oiled paper and bit it down.
Swallowed, looked up and sighed, "Satisfied." ”
"If you like it, I'll give it to you every day. Shen Sangyu said with a smile.
The old naughty boy glanced at her, "You don't fool me, it must be profitable to be so good to me all of a sudden, say, what are you going to do?"
Shen Sangyu grinned, her white and soft hand resting on her cheeks, like a blooming magnolia flower, "It's just a little help." ”
"You have to say it to determine the size. "The old naughty boy doesn't eat this.
Shen Sangyu said, "I want to ask your old man to help me go to the pawnshop to collect something." ”
This is indeed a trivial matter for the old urchin.
The amount of money he has accumulated over the years is not a small amount.
It is no exaggeration to say that it is not a problem to buy half of the shops in the capital.
It's just that the old urchin is a little curious, "Why do you want me to help you collect it, you think I'm rich?"
"Didn't you say you were going to give me a lot of money last time?" Shen Sangyu blinked, "Besides, it doesn't cost much, I'll ...... Add a layer of interest to pay you back. ”
Right now, Shen Sangyu can't pay for it himself.
Easy to spot.
Otherwise, I wouldn't have come to ask the old urchin.
Afraid that the old urchin would not agree, he hurriedly added, "Otherwise, you can borrow some from Master Gao, Lord Gao is really rich." ”
In his previous life, Gao Tingqin told her that he had a small bank in the capital, and the annual profit was not small.
The old naughty boy doesn't have enough money, so it should be no problem to go to Gao Tingqin to borrow a little.
"Then why don't you go directly to Tingqin, let me go to him to borrow money at a very old age, it's a shame. The old urchin asked, puzzled.
Do you want to go directly to Gao Tingqin?
In Shen Sangyu's mind, he suddenly recalled the conversation in the corner of the palace garden that day.
A young man in a dark blue robe stood in front of her, and said with a torch in his eyes, "Okay, I'll marry you." ”
"What do you want, your cheeks are so red?" the old naughty boy beside him asked, pulling back Shen Sangyu's thoughts.
She subconsciously touched her cheek, which was frighteningly hot.
hurriedly explained, "It's okay, it's just a cold, just take a rest." ”
After a pause, he said, "I asked you for help because I think you have a good relationship with me, so I think of you whenever I have something, so, please!"
Shen Sangyu said, still blinking his innocent apricot eyes, and Baba looked at the old naughty boy.
The whole person is pitiful.
The old urchin suddenly ran out of words.
"Well, then you say, what are you going to the pawnshop to collect?" he agreed.
Shen Sangyu suddenly became happy, and thousands of stars lit up in his eyes, "I know that you are the best for me, and I will definitely send you a pot helmet to eat every day in the future!"
"I want to send something else to eat, I always eat the pot helmet and it will get hot!" muttered the old urchin.
......
When Shen Sangyu left the pharmacy and returned to Bohou's Mansion, he found that the Wei family had just arrived home.
The horses pulling the cart were so tired that they were foaming at the mouth, and apparently they had made a lot of unjust detours around the city.
Wei Shi was refreshed, supported by Juan Niang, and walked to the house.
She didn't see Shen Sangyu behind her.
Otherwise, there would be no such calm and calm appearance.
Shen Sangyu looked at Wei's back and chuckled, and then he also entered the Bohou Mansion.
Xiu'er had been looking forward to it at the door of the Reflecting Moon Pavilion for a long time.
Seeing Shen Sangyu from a distance, he hurriedly lifted his skirt to meet him.
"Miss, you can be regarded as coming back, the slave is worried about death, are you okay today?" asked Xiu'er.
"Didn't you see me for a few hours, do you miss me like this?" Shen Sangyu smiled and took out a pot helmet as if he were juggling.
handed it to Xiu'er and asked, "Explain your affairs, how is it?"
Xiu'er held the pot helmet and smiled, and did not forget to report to Shen Sangyu.
"The slaves and maids have quietly gone to the storehouse today, and they have counted them almost the same, and they have shipped a lot out, and the rest have been moved back to the storehouse and locked. Xiu'er replied.
"Good. Shen Sangyu bowed, "Do you know what was shipped out?"
Xiu'er shook her head, "I don't know, it's too far away, I can't see it at all, but the things taken out of the warehouse should be very valuable, right?"
"It's my dowry. Shen Sangyu said softly.
Hearing this, Xiu'er was so shocked that she almost dropped the pot helmet in her hand.
They were so nervous that they began to stutter," they ...... What are they doing with your dowry, Miss, that's Miss yours!"
What else could it be?
Naturally, it was sent out as a pawn, so as to exchange for the five thousand taels of gold that Princess Shuo needed.
Shen Sangyu originally thought that the Wei family would easily take out five thousand taels of gold from her mother's property, and then give it to Prince Shuo.
But when I saw the movement of the storehouse that night, I also understood.
Her mother has been dead for so many years, and her property is basically recorded in the expense book.
Five thousand taels of silver may be squeezed without knowing it.
But when it comes to gold, it's even more difficult.
Wei Shi knew that he could not squeeze out 5,000 taels of gold and still went to the treasury, naturally he wanted to find something that was expensive and not written in the expense book.
Her dowry is very much in line with Wei's requirements.
And listening to Xiu'er, there are several boxes of things shipped out, and Shen Sangyu is even more sure of this matter.
Therefore, Shen Sangyu deliberately led the Wei family to the palace, so that she didn't have time to stare at the movements in the warehouse, so that Xiu'er could secretly monitor.
In addition, she can create the illusion that she is unaware of this.
It's not in vain that she laid out this game, and now she can close the net.
"When I was on Zhuangzi before, didn't the old woman who burned the fire tell me that all money in this world has life, and money can make money," Shen Sangyu tilted his head to look at Xiu'er, with a smile on his face,
"Then you say, how many small dowries can I give birth to my dowry?"
