Chapter 333: Thorough
Liu Huixian gritted her teeth and took out twenty taels of silver from her purse, threw it on the table, and then beckoned Liu Guanting and Liu Guanhou brothers to hurry over and carry Old Madam Liu.
"Hey, wait." Shen Xiangmiao took the twenty taels of silver, and stopped the three of them in a hurry.
"The silver that should be given has also been given, why do you want to stop us, isn't it because we can't change our fortunes?" Liu Guanting suddenly glared.
"The money for this quilt was given, but the money for this house has not been given." Shen Xiangmiao pursed her lips and said, "You have all seen it, our family's house is newly built, our family has just moved in for two days, and Mrs. Liu went to our house. ”
The three siblings of the Liu family immediately glanced at each other.
What Shen Xiangmiao said is not bad, this person died in someone else's house, others will naturally feel very unlucky, and it is reasonable to open their mouths to ask for money, but now they don't have much silver on hand, not to mention, just now Shen Xiangmiao opened his mouth again, which made them dissatisfied, and they were not willing to give money at this time.
"The money for the quilt has been given so much, and it can be regarded as compensation for you." Liu Guan is kind.
"This is the same thing, if it is still the same sentence, I will return the quilt money to you, and leave the quilt for me." Shen Xiangmiao said: "The compensation money for this house, go out and inquire, anyone has to think that it should be given, I don't want much for this, just ten taels of silver." ”
Indeed, they did not take care of it.
The three sisters and brothers of the Liu family suddenly stopped.
Although they were reluctant, at this time, the three of them were also worried about the things on Mrs. Liu, and they all wanted to go back as soon as possible to deal with this matter.
Liu Guanting and Liu Guanhou glanced at each other again, just wanted to take two steps back with Fang Cai, but never thought that Liu Huixian was quick this time, grabbed the collars of the two of them one by one, and shouted: "You two, one person came out with five taels of silver!" ”
The two brothers, Liu Guanting and Liu Guanhou, had no choice but to pay out of their own pockets.
gave the silver and carried Mrs. Liu into the carriage, and the three sisters and brothers of the Liu family couldn't wait to urge the coachman to drive away.
The rest of the people began to arrange their own business.
First of all, he sent the iron egg who was already sleepy and hurried to sleep.
Shen Wenwu couldn't open his eyes for a long time, and he was napping in the warm room with a charcoal basin for a long time, and he was afraid that he would freeze if he went back at this time, so Shen Xiangmiao proposed to let Shen Wenwu and Tie Dan squeeze into a bed at night to sleep.
sent the two brothers to sleep, and Lu's meat soup was served when it was ready.
"Eat while it's hot." Lu handed over the bowl containing the meat soup, chopsticks and steamed buns.
Shen Fuhai and Du Zhong were busy for most of the night, but they were so hungry at this time, they didn't shirk anymore, and took a bowl to eat and drink there.
While eating, Shen Fuhai opened his mouth: "The sisters and brothers of the Liu family are not filial, I can't even look at them, just Xiangmiao treated them with that trick, and it was really relieving to see their painful appearance." ”
"Relieving anger is relieving qi, but the sisters and brothers of the Liu family are not good at stubble, I'm afraid that they hold a grudge, although Xiangmiao is kind and sympathetic to Mrs. Liu, but this edge is still too exposed." Dr. Du Zhong was a little worried.
First of all, if it was nothing else, but after a few of them went back, they found that Old Madam Liu didn't have what they wanted, so I was afraid that they would have to come to the door.
As soon as Du Zhong said this, Lu Shi also glanced at Shen Xiangmiao with some concern, and took her hand uneasily: "If not, let Xiangmiao go out and hide for two days?" If we are only at home, I am afraid that they will not be able to help us. ”
"Mother, you don't have to worry." Shen Xiangmiao patted the back of Lu's hand, signaling her to feel at ease, and then grinned and laughed: "Speaking of which, there are several reasons for the matter of Fang Cai, one of which is that he said to the third uncle, looking at those people is really not eye-catching, thinking about rectifying one or two, just to wear the three of them worried that Mrs. Liu's things would fall on the bed, afraid that we would be careful about evil, so I took the opportunity to knock on a bamboo pole and let them bleed." ”
"Second, I'm also worried that if the three sisters and brothers of the Liu family can't find anything from the old lady Liu, they will put the old lady aside in a fit of anger, and they won't be able to handle the aftermath well. This money, I asked for it, just in case of emergency, although I can also afford the funeral expenses, but Mrs. Liu is a member of the Liu family, and the money naturally has to be said by the children and grandchildren of the Liu family, and Mrs. Liu can also feel at ease underground. ”
Finally, there is the concern that Dr. Du said. I have also thought about this carefully, the three sisters and brothers of the Liu family can't find anything from Mrs. Liu, so they will naturally think about whether I took it in advance, but if I am a thief and get such a large amount of wealth, I will inevitably urge them to leave, instead of thinking about doing more to blackmail them here for the twenty taels of silver. I'm doing this at this time just to reduce my suspicions. ”
"As for these silver coins, if they are really not needed in the end, they will be returned to the family when they finally find the Wei girl and return the relics of Mrs. Liu."
As soon as Shen Xiangmiao's words came out, Du Zhong was stunned for a moment.
What Shen Xiangmiao said was reasonable.
And what Shen Xiangmiao did was also reasonable and thoughtful.
It's just that Shen Xiangmiao is not very old, but she has such amazing wisdom and thinking, which is really admirable.
Du Zhong looked at Shen Xiangmiao's gaze, and once again had a little more praise: "It's still Xiangmiao who is thoughtful." ”
In this way, even if the three sisters and brothers of the Liu family come to them, I am afraid that Shen Xiangmiao will definitely be able to deal with it.
Moreover, there are Huang Yue in the town, Fang Huairen is here, it is really not good, and he Du Zhong is here, so he will not let the few illiterate people of the Liu family come to find fault.
Shen Xiangmiao received the praise and pursed her lips and smiled.
It was late at night, and it was not worth sending Dr. Du Zhong to the town again, so after discussion, Dr. Du Zhong decided to stay overnight and return to the town pharmacy with everyone tomorrow morning.
The new courtyard is clean and bright, and there are also special guest rooms, Shen Xiangmiao originally wanted to let Dr. Du Zhong stay and sleep, but after thinking about it carefully, she dispelled this idea.
Although the folk customs in this era are quite open, there are still men and women who are guarded.
There are no adult men in the family, and the Lu family is a widow, so it is inconvenient to stay at home for an adult man like Dr. Du Zhong.
Obviously, Shen Fuhai also took this layer into consideration, and directly asked Dr. Du to sleep in his house.
After drinking the meat slice soup, Dr. Du Zhong and Shen Fuhai rested for a while, and then went to Shen Fuhai's house.
Shen Xiangmiao and the Lu family cleaned up their home.
