"Here we go!" Gu Chengyu heard that this was Gu Chengyi's voice, and yes, the eldest brother lived in the back room of the east wing, so he must have reacted slower to the front.

Gu Chengyu heard Gu Chengyi step forward and open the door, and Uncle Gu's voice came from the front yard.

Yes, Gu Chengyu can be sure that this is really here to borrow silver.

"Uncle! Why are you here? My dad just went to sleep. Gu Chengyi plugged in the latch from behind, it was also a little strange, why did Uncle Gu come over at this time.

"Changqing, but you are asleep?" Uncle Gu was standing in the yard and didn't enter the main house, at this moment, it was time to sleep, and his brother and daughter-in-law were still in the house! It must have been inconvenient, so I just shouted in the yard.

"Hey! Eldest brother! Come on in, we haven't slept yet! Seeing that the Lu family had already put on his clothes, Father Gu brushed his hair again, and when he saw that it was almost there, he shouted to Uncle Gu in the courtyard.

"Then I'm in!" Uncle Gu knew that this was convenient to enter.

Father Gu stepped forward and opened the door of the main house, and Uncle Gu then stepped in.

"Big brother!" The Lu family shouted, Uncle Gu is here now, and the Lu family has a bad premonition.

"Ahh My brother and sister haven't slept yet? Xiaobao is asleep? In fact, Uncle Gu was also a little embarrassed when he came over so late, and he didn't think about what he said, but only asked a few words casually. Gu Chengyu wanted to laugh a little. If your brother and sister sleep, can your uncle still enter the house?

Gu Chengyu was a person who fell asleep just now, so of course he couldn't be awake at this time.

Father Gu also seemed to feel that the eldest brother was a little uncomfortable, so he took over the conversation and said, "Xiaobao is asleep, Ming'er has to get up early to study, Xiaowa sleeps a lot, and falls asleep early!" ”

"Hey! Good! Evergreen! You also know about the conscription that we are talking about today, and your family's money has been prepared, right? Uncle Gu decided to say it directly, it was strange to stay in the house.

"It's already prepared, this time it's very dangerous, you can't call their brothers anymore, it's hard to kill someone." As soon as Father Gu heard Uncle Gu mention this, he already had a number in his heart.

"Yes! This work of repairing the river embankment, which time will not die some people. This time, Hua Ge'er was not admitted to Xiucai, and my family is not tax-exempt, so I still have to go to the conscription, otherwise I have to pay the silver. "Actually, even if Gu Wanhua passed the county exam, it would take a few days to take the Xiucai exam, and the conscription was a matter of these days, and it was too late.

Father Gu saw that it was getting late, and he didn't want to go around in circles with Uncle Gu, "Big brother, but you don't have any money?" ”

Uncle Gu was originally embarrassed to mention it, but now that he saw that Father Gu mentioned it, he nodded busily.

"Yes! Originally, if Hua Ge'er had kept the silver that Hua Ge'er had tried in the county, the silver would still be enough. Now, it's still two taels, can you still get it out here? After a while, I'll ask the boss to pay you back. ”

"What did the eldest brother say? Although there is not much money in the family, I can still get two taels. "Father Gu saw that the eldest brother had already talked about this, and it would definitely not work if he didn't borrow it, not to mention, just borrowing two taels of silver, and the eldest nephew had a lot of monthly money every month, and he would be able to repay it in a few months, so he wasn't worried.

"Damn, give two taels of silver to the eldest brother!" Father Gu turned his head and told the Lu family to give Uncle Gu the silver.

"No, no! Give it to me tomorrow! Uncle Gu also knew that the valuable things of the Zhuang family were all placed in the cabinet next to the kang qin or kang, and Changqing asked his mother-in-law to take the money, and it was inconvenient for him to sit here.

"Big brother, let's go there today! Early in the morning, I'm afraid I'm not at home. Father Gu motioned to the Lu family, who was still sitting still, to hurry up and take the silver.

Although the Lu family was unhappy in her heart, she also knew that with Uncle Gu's character, she would repay the silver as soon as possible if she borrowed it, so she didn't say anything. So, I picked up the key on my body, opened the double lock, and only then did I touch the money box. He didn't open the money box, only the gap was exposed, he put his hand inside, found two taels of silver, and locked the money box again.

Uncle Gu was a little uncomfortable on the side, and his eyes didn't look that way.

"Ming'er has an official mission down, if you don't stay at home, where are you going?" Suddenly hearing that Daddy Gu was going out early in the morning, Uncle Gu asked suspiciously.

"Isn't this Kiko coming back? said that her in-laws asked her son-in-law to serve in the conscription, and Xizi couldn't make up the money, so she went back to her parents' house. Before you came, Kiko followed the old family back to the east wing and slept in the east wing. ”

Father Gu was also a little worried when he thought of this. Alas! and eighteen taels of silver were missing. In the past, when the family had no money, I didn't see so many expenses at home! Nowadays, the silver is earning more, but it seems to be spending more, and during this time, the family has spent more money than others have earned in their lifetime.

"Kiko is still coming back at this time? What about nieces and sons-in-law? Didn't follow? Uncle Gu also expected Gu Xi to come back at this time, and he was afraid that he would also come to borrow silver.

"It's said that he left it at home and begged his mother! Refused to come. "He refused to come forward to borrow money from his son-in-law, and Father Gu was angry. Moreover, it was getting dark, and he even let his eldest daughter go back to her parents' house alone, which is what a man can do?

"What did you say? If he wants to borrow silver, why doesn't he come by himself, what's the matter with letting Xizi come back alone? "Uncle Gu really doesn't look down on this niece-in-law's behavior.

Then he thought about it, "Then do you borrow or not?" Uncle Gu raised his eyes and looked at Father Gu.

"I'm afraid I can't borrow it, and my in-laws won't give it out."

"Then this is a look at the money you have in your house! Some time ago, it was rumored everywhere that your house had money, would they not know? Otherwise, why would he be so ruthless to his second child? "Uncle Gu is also a smart person, although the old Wang family is partial to the boss, but he can't watch the second child go to death, right?

"So tomorrow morning, I have to go to Wang's house, I have to ask my in-laws, do you still want this son?" Daddy Gu was a little angry when he said it, and he couldn't imagine that his honest son-in-law would also learn to play tricks.

"You just have to know it in your heart, but you have to think clearly, your family has a lot of in-laws, and when the time comes, if they all come to borrow, what can it be?" Uncle Gu saw that Daddy Gu didn't agree directly, and he also knew that Daddy Gu had a plan in his heart, so he let go of his heart.

Gu Chengyu was lying on the bed and heard the conversation between the two, and thought that there would be more people who came to borrow money from Ming'er. When the time comes, I am afraid that it will not only be relatives, but it is estimated that even the people in the village will come to the door. But it really responded to that sentence, "The poor are in the downtown and no one asks, and the rich have distant relatives in the mountains." ”

Uncle Gu took the silver handed over by his younger brother and put it in his arms. "It's not getting early, so rest early! I'm going back too, go back early and tell your sister-in-law, save her worry! "It's so late, it's not convenient to stay, and besides, the mother-in-law at home is still waiting for Xin'er!
