Chapter Twenty-Four: Helpless

The crazy stone on the side bent his eyebrows and eyes: "It's okay, it's okay, little sister, you tell my brother, why do you say that the tenth young master is looking for the master's money?" ”

The insect and I coincidentally pouted at the wild stone with disdain, and smiled so coquettishly, it was clear that he was making a beautiful man, even such a young child would not let go, how shameless it was. , the latest chapter access: ШШШ.79xs.БоМ .

Sure enough, Tutu was stunned for a moment, and then said crisply: "I heard that the tenth young master asked the eldest lady, saying that the master has been in business for so many years, and it is impossible for the mansion to have no silver." He asked the eldest lady where he hid the family's money, so that he could take it and save the eldest young master. But the lady said that over the years, some shops have been unable to make ends meet, and all the money is invested in the operation of the business, and there is no surplus at all. The tenth young master didn't believe it, so he would go to the account room or the study every day to calculate the master's money. ”

I remembered the wolf-like boy I saw in the courtyard that day, he had always been valued by his father, he had a keen sense of smell, an active brain, and quite a skill, and was called a business wizard by his father. Now that the Su family is in trouble, the eldest brother and aunt urgently need to redeem the silver, if they can have a rich silver turnover, they can naturally live in peace. Qingming's approach is also reasonable and understandable.

"It's all nonsense," Uncle He glanced at the crazy stones and insects, and rebuked Tutu: "Now that the Su family has been looted, where did the treasure and silver come from?" You little girl listens to the wind and rain, where did you hear this 'messy' thing. Shut up and eat. ”

The stone shrugged helplessly at me. Naturally, I knew that Uncle He was hindered by the presence of outsiders, and some of his words were a little evasive. He has followed my father for many years, and he should be cautious.

"Uncle He, I want to ask, do you know anything about your father's business now?"

Uncle He shook his head: "I'm old now, I'm a little confused, and the things in the house are no longer enough, where do I still know about those business dealings?" ”

"Now that there are so many creditors collecting debts outside our house, how much money does it really owe to the silver, and how much does it cost?"

He Bo sighed: "Those people are menacing and unreasonable, who dares to ask for statistics." Even the tenth young master doesn't know the number, but according to the rough estimation of the existing account books in the house, it should never be less than 100,000 taels of gold, most of which are the deposits of large households in the bank. ”

I couldn't help but gasp, the Su family was seriously injured today, and I am afraid that it will be really difficult to come back to life: "What news is there from the robbers?" ”

Uncle He shook his head: "On the first day, when the eldest young master was taken away, the kidnappers left a message, saying that they would not see the ransom within a few days, and the eldest young master's life would not be guaranteed. But the next day, something happened, those creditors rushed to hear the news, ransacked the Su Mansion for the second time, and did not get any cheap, so they set up camp at the entrance of the "gate", and surrounded the entire Su family, we couldn't get out, and the news from the outside couldn't come in. Rao is anxious and helpless. ”

Those robbers have always had eyes and ears in the city, and the Su family's changes will definitely be heard. Since they are just trying to make money, they should not be disadvantageous to the eldest brother and aunt for the time being. It's just that if this stalemate continues, it's not a way after all, it's better to plan early, I thought secretly.

A servant 'woman' hurriedly ran in, sweating all over her head, and reported to me: "The prefect and Aunt Qingcheng's 'milk' and 'milk' are asking to see me outside the big 'gate'. ”

I smiled coldly, since the accident of the Su family, she was afraid of being dragged down, and she kept her life open, and she has always ignored the Su family, even her mother is seriously ill, and she has never set foot here for half a step, what are you doing now? He didn't say that he was going to visit his mother, who was lying in bed, but he bluntly said that he asked to see me.

"Tell Aunt Qingcheng 'milk' and 'milk', I'm busy taking care of my mother's sick body in front of the 'bed', and I don't have time to meet guests, so let her please come back."

The servant woman heard the sarcasm in my words, raised her eyes and glanced at Uncle He, and her face was 'embarrassed'.

He Bo said with a smile: "After all, the aunt's 'milk' and 'milk' family is the prefect of Yangzhou, and you are a parent official, so it seems a bit ruthless." ”

Crazy Stone said disdainfully: "The people who come out of the Qiwang Mansion don't need to show mercy to anyone, not to mention that Qingwen is the county lord of the imperial seal. ”

When the servant 'woman' heard such arrogant words as Mad Shi, she instantly seemed to have confidence, and went out to reply with her head held high.

He Bo was not at ease, lest the servant 'woman' really take advantage of the momentum and say something inappropriate, so he quickly pulled Tutu and followed out. There were only rocks, bugs, and me left in the room, and for a while there was silence and I didn't know what to eat.

"Qingwu, what are you going to do now, but what are your plans?" The Wild Stone is the first to break the silence.

I shook my head: "Big brother and my aunt, we have no clue, and we can only wait for news with static braking and patience. But I feel that the kidnappers have not moved anywhere, the main reason is not because the Su Mansion is under siege, but because they know that the Su family really can't afford this ransom now. Otherwise, according to the means of Bodhi Buddhism, it will be easy to avoid the crowd gathered outside the palace and pass the news in. ”

"So, how to lure the snake out of the 'hole' is the most troublesome part. Unless, if your father really hid treasure somewhere. Crazy Stone joked with a hippie smile.

I glanced outside the house to make sure there was no one, and then I lowered my voice and said, "What if I say that my father really has such treasures?" ”

"Is there really a treasure?" The worm's eyes widened, and he looked like he was seeing money.

I gently "shh My father loved to collect antique 'jade' wares, all of which were priceless and hidden in underground vaults. However, there is certainly not much cash in cash, and it is not easy to exchange those antiques for them. ”

Crazy Stone looked exaggerated and shocked, and said improperly: "It turns out that the Su family is rich and rivals the country, and this is all true." No wonder the 'daughters' of the Su family are all vying to marry. ”

I glanced at the wild stone with disdain: "I still have a sister who hasn't been out of the cabinet, why don't we discuss and discuss, and I will give more dowry?" ”

The insects on the side suddenly pricked up their ears, glared at them dissatisfiedly, and pouted disdainfully: "Your sister didn't go early or late, so she went to Sichuan to find relatives in the past few days when the Su family was killed, it's just a clever calculation." ”

The tone was sour, extremely resentful.

Crazy Stone laughed wryly: "Off topic, off topic, back to business." ”

"Qingwen, what do you say if we release the news to the outside world that the Su family has really discovered a large number of hidden treasures?" Bug enthusiastically proposed.

"What else do you need to say?" Crazy Stone looked at her with disdain like an idiot: "Those people outside the 'door' will rush in with their lives, and the Bodhi Sect will 'insert' again, killing, burning and looting, and one word 'miserable gambling'." ”

"Then can you think of a way to stabilize the people outside the 'door', and then lead the king into the urn? It's better to strike first than to be led by the nose by the Bodhi Sect later. ”

The insect frowned and thought for a moment. Although she seems innocent, she thinks about things more thoroughly than me in many cases, not to mention that I am 'chaotic' when I care about it now, and I have no clue at all.

"It's not easy to talk about, these people recognize that the Su family is wealthy, and they must have a family background, so they won't leave easily." Mad Stone pouted.

"If the government can participate and dismiss the people outside, is it possible?" I asked Madstone with a glimmer of hope.

Crazy Shi shook his head: "I'm afraid it's difficult to do, even if the government comes forward, it can dismiss the people outside the 'door', once the news is leaked out, it will 'arouse' the anger of the people, and it will be out of control, and the government will not be able to bear this responsibility." ”

I lowered my head in frustration and put my chopsticks on the table in frustration: "In any case, it is the top priority to rescue my eldest brother and aunt first." Otherwise, it will not be possible to settle the creditors from outside. However, if this ransom is really paid, the people outside the 'gate' will inevitably cause a lot of riots. It would be nice if you could avoid the eyes and ears of the people outside and pass the news of the discovery of the hidden silver to the Bodhi sect. ”

I supported my forehead with one hand, closed my eyes, felt anxious for a while, at a loss, and sighed dejectedly: "It's better to wait for Brother Ten to come, discuss it with him, and see if he has any good ideas." ”

Crazy Stone pondered for a moment and said, "Actually, there is some truth in the sour words of the insect just now. Qing Wu, about the treasure, I suggest you don't tell Qing Ming for the time being. After all, people's hearts are separated from their stomachs, and it is difficult to guarantee that Qingming will not take the Tibetan silver for his own "selfishness" and "desire". ”

As soon as I was about to speak, I heard a terrible scream in the distance, full of horror.

I was startled, and the bug was the first to ask, "What's wrong?" ”

I shook my head: "Listen to the sound is in the backyard, I'll go over and take a look." ”

Crazy Stone and Insect also hurriedly pushed the dishes and chopsticks away and stood up: "We are all full, so let's go with you." ”

The group ran out in a panic, and happened to collide with the oncoming rabbit.

"Tutu, what's going on?" I caught the panting bunny and asked anxiously.

Tutu said breathlessly: "Miss Eleven, it's Miss Qinglian who is awake." ”

I was halfway to put my mind down: "How did I hear a scream?" ”

"As soon as Miss Qinglian woke up, she ran towards the ancestral hall, and I happened to meet me halfway, but unfortunately I couldn't persuade her." Tutu said helplessly: "It just so happened that my father came back to meet Young Master Qingming, and I hurriedly called them for help, but Miss Qinglian suddenly screamed, her emotions were 'excited', she looked a little hysterical, and grabbed my arm." My dad told me to come and have a look. ”

Crazy Stone's eyes flashed slightly: "Let's go and have a look." After saying that, he took the worm and walked ahead of us first, trotting all the way.

Although Qing Lian is young and doesn't have much strength, she is obviously a little stubborn and crazy at this time, and Qing Ming and He Bo can't stop her when they work together. She writhed desperately and struggled her body, trying to get rid of the restraint of He Bo and the others, using her hands and feet at the same time, and she was indeed a little emotionally disturbed.

Strange, after I did acupuncture for her today, it seems that her condition has obviously improved from the pulse, how can it become more serious? What went wrong?
