Chapter 168: Dialing
、、、、、、、、、、 After being cold for several days, Yang finally came out and showed his face. In the evening, there is no wind in the courtyard, only the afterglow spills on the window lattice, falling a golden yellow, a group of quiet.
Liu Chang held a cup of hot tea soup with an expressionless face, and listened to the eldest brother of the county lord of Qinghua, Wei Wangshi complained and questioned him: "Shu, you said it, this is a profitable business, there is absolutely no problem, I just listened to your words to join the shares." How did you get into trouble with the internal guards now? Not to mention the discount, the key is what if the internal guard finds out my head? What if my father is involved again? ”
Since you want to make money, you have to take the risk, throw a few dollars at him and leave it alone, and roar and scream when you see a little wind and grass, how can this make sense? Liu Chang frowned, and said with a squeeze: "Don't worry, you and I have never come forward in person, and few people recognize it." If the internal guard wanted to find trouble, he would have come to the door a long time ago, and it has been several days, and no one has come to the door, let alone heard any rumors, so it can be seen that there is no major problem. ”
Wei Wangshi sneered: "You haven't experienced anything, where do you know the temper of the internal guard?" At this time, it looks calm, but I'm afraid that when I accidentally provoke it, I will immediately throw it out and hit it in the face. Seeing Liu Chang sitting still with his eyes down, he hurriedly said, "Don't just sit, you have to quickly come up with a charter." ”
Liu Chang threw away the teacup in his hand: "What charter do you want me to come up with?" Am I not involved in it? I asked a few people to listen, but they didn't ask anything. Why don't you ask? You are the prince, the younger brother of the clan, I am more familiar with the human side, wider and wider, and you are guaranteed to succeed as soon as you come out. He paused and said with some try, "Speaking of how it can involve the internal guard, I don't understand, I think about it here, there has never been anything that has anything to do with the internal guard." I just don't know ...... over there."
Wei Wangshi's face really changed slightly, and he said, "When is this?" We didn't do anything we shouldn't have done. If you want me to say, it must be someone who came to gamble and something went wrong, who wants to take the opportunity to take revenge. It's not impossible for me to inquire about this, but I've been a little short of money lately. Do you want to pay me a turnaround first? ”
Sure enough, the Wei Wangfu is not clean! Liu Chang pondered for a moment and said, "How much do you want?" ”
Wei Wangshi pondered for a long time and said: "The appetite over there is very big, so I have to ask for 50,000 yuan, you can use it for me first." When the dividends are due, I will convert them to you, and I will give you as much as I want. ”
Liu Chang was silent. He didn't believe Wei Wangshi's words at all, and even this cooperation was just a matter of taking what each person needed. If he wanted to give Wei Wangshi such money for nothing, he naturally refused.
Wei Wangshi saw that his face was cloudy, and his heart was a little bottomless, but he still said: "It's not that I deliberately embarrassed you, you settle accounts, and so many account books and slips fell into their hands, how much trouble is that?" If you can get it back, you can ask for it one by one, far more than that. It's really inconvenient for me to hold it, otherwise it would be the same if I took it. We're all one soon, are you still afraid that I'll pay the bills? If I said that I would convert it to you, I would definitely discount it to you. ”
Liu Chang said lightly: "I also lost a lot of money, more than yours, and many people have come to ask about the printing of money these days, and I have to settle them one by one, and I will definitely not be able to take out so much." If you really need to use it in a hurry, I can barely get some from somewhere else for you, but it's only 5,000 yuan, do you want it? ”
Wei Wang Shi immediately sat up straight and laughed angrily: "I want 50,000 yuan, you give me 5,000 yuan...... What is 5,000 yuan enough for? It's not enough to invite them to eat, drink and have a few meals, what can be done? Shu, you're too shrewd. ”
"If I want to say that I am too shrewd, I gave you a lot of dividends a few days ago, although you have never taken care of the slightest, I am not missing you." Liu Chang sat motionless: "Now I only have this, or I have moved out the capital of other shops." You can't kill me, I don't believe you go through the account books. Otherwise, how about you go and discuss with Tsinghua Liang? She has a lot of money on hand. I gave her a lot of money just for the bridging. ”
Wei Wangshi was really a little tempted. But he hesitated: "But that's her dowry." ”
Liu Chang laughed: "What happened to the dowry?" She just got married without any money, and I don't have any opinion. This is a big deal, and besides, it's just a turnaround, and she's definitely willing. When I distribute dividends in the future, I will give it to her again, isn't it the same? ”
Wei Wangshi thought about it, then said a few good words, got up to say goodbye, and went straight to the Qinghua County Lord's Mansion.
Sending Wei Wangshi away, Liu Chang sat on the soft couch under the window tiredly, and slowly turned the wine in the water spirit glass to the remnant sun, the wine reflected a wonderful light in the crystal glass, but he felt that his eyes were shaking, and he was tired of seeing it, and he drank it all. Glass after cup, until the strength of the wine was up, he felt a little drowsy, he stuffed the cup into Yu'er's hand, leaned back, and fell asleep.
As the wedding date approached, he had a very difficult time falling asleep at night, sleeping lightly, and easily falling asleep after being woken up, but he always felt tired and sleepy during the day, and his temper became more and more irritable. Coupled with the recent unexplained loss of this large sum, not only broke the game he set up in one fell swoop, but also brought endless troubles and troubles. He also knew if the He family had discovered the clue, through Jiang Changyang's hand, but when he asked, he knew that Jiang Changyang had been absent from Beijing these days, and he had no connection with Jiang Changyang, so it can be seen that Jiang Changyang had little to do with this matter.
And several people who were brought in, including He Liulang, so far, no one has come out, and it is possible for anyone, and it is impossible to figure out who did it in a short time, which makes him carry a belly of anger all day long, and it is not pleasing to anyone, but in two days, most of the concubines in the house have been punished by him, and they are like mice seeing cats when they see him, and they can hide as far as they can.
Seeing that he seemed sleepy, Yu'er didn't even dare to take off his boots, let alone undress him, but only dared to carefully cover him with a brocade quilt, and then sat quietly and waited without moving. After about half an hour, I suddenly heard a soft sound outside, and my daughter Jiao Niang's small face stretched out from under the curtain, with some steadiness and caution that did not match the age, and looked at Liu Chang timidly, and then looked at herself longingly, with tears in her eyes, and stretched out two small hands, but she didn't dare to shout.
Liu Chang has never been happy with children, and Qi'er and Jiaoniang have never been hugged by him a few times since they were young. When he saw it, he snorted lightly, not to mention laughing with fun, so that the two children were dodging when they saw him, and they didn't dare to say more when they buried their heads. Yu'er looked at the pitiful appearance of Jiao Niang, her heart fluttered, she glanced at Liu Chang, and got up carefully to hug Jiao Niang.
As soon as Yu'er's hand touched Jiao Niang, Jiao Niang couldn't help it for a while, and sobbed lowly: "I miss my aunt." ”
Yu'er was sad for a while, and was busy wiping her daughter's tears, when she suddenly heard Liu Chang behind her turn over violently. The mother and daughter were startled at the same time, and looked back motionlessly. But seeing Liu Chang frowning tightly, his eyes wide open, looking at the mother and daughter angrily, and said in a deep voice: "What to do!" Crying and crying. ”
Yu'er hurriedly said: "Jiao Niang is probably uncomfortable. Before the words fell, the aunt was already scared to tears. Yu'er hurriedly took her into her arms, stroked the top of her head, and comforted her silently.
Liu Chang was annoyed, and was about to lose his temper, panicking at the mother and daughter, with eyes full of tears. Suddenly feeling very bored, he sighed and waved his hand: "Get out!" ”
Suddenly, I heard someone say: "Gong, the county lord is here." ”
Before the words fell, the county lord of Qinghua was already standing at the door, raised his chin high and said, "Liu Shu, what do you mean?" ”
Yu'er hurriedly led Jiao Niang to salute the county lord of Qinghua, and the county lord of Qinghua glanced at her mother and daughter, only to feel that her eyes were pierced indescribably, but a smile appeared on her face, and she reached out and touched the top of her head: "Jiao Niang is good." ”
Liu Chang pressed his impatience and said lightly: "What's the matter?" Do you brothers and sisters still want people to live in peace? Come to me one by one to settle accounts, don't you? ”
The county lord of Qinghua withdrew his hand from Jiao Niang's head, limped to him and sat down, and called Yu'er first: "Bring me a cup of hot tea and soup, I want to cover the top stone flower, and I won't drink anything else." After finishing the order, he looked back at Liu Chang and said, "Why did you ask my brother to ask me to borrow money?" ”
Liu Chang raised his eyebrows in surprise: "He asked me to borrow money, but I don't have any money, he is your brother, why do I have to think of this solution for him, right?" ”
The county lord of Qinghua choked and said angrily: "He wants to borrow money himself, where is it not borrowed from?" Why did you remind him to ask me to borrow it? Will I make money? With so much money, what do I use to lend him money? Bankrupt me? "What do you say that it will be divided from Liu Chang in the future, isn't it their own money? She only shirked a few sentences, and she was said to be inferior to Liu Chang, an outsider, who was dedicated to the palace.
Liu Chang said quietly: "I don't know about your two brothers and sisters, if you don't want to, just don't agree." I also think it's strange, if it was the same thing a few days ago, I wouldn't have needed so much, and I wouldn't have been in such a hurry. But he was very anxious, he didn't listen to my advice, he scolded me for a long time, and I couldn't think of pushing it to you. What, you gave it to him? ”
"To him? Joke. He used to get a little closer to King Min's Mansion for me, and when I was still sick, he came to the door and scolded me like that! ignored me, and when he saw that King Min was beautiful again, he touted it again. What kind of red? Isn't it all our money that comes and goes? I won't give it to him! The money is in my hands, who do I want to please and I won't go myself? Besides, I don't know what my father's idea was. After saving it, he scolded me again. Lord Qinghua snorted: "You have a good idea." He hated me again. ”
"If you don't give, you don't give. Don't worry, where will there be an overnight feud between brothers and sisters? After that, it will be fine. Liu Chang closed his eyes and stopped talking. He had already guessed that the county lord of Qinghua had a grudge and would not give so much money to the world no matter what, as he expected. It's just that he didn't expect that Wei Wangshi was pulled over by King Min again. I don't know what King Wei's idea is, but it doesn't matter, no matter what happens to King Wei's Mansion in the end, Tsinghua doesn't want to stand on his head for a lifetime.
Qinghua sat silently for a long time and said, "It's getting dark, I'll go to the main room to see your mother, will you go with me?" ”
Liu Chang didn't say anything.
The county lord of Qinghua got up hatefully and went to the main room.
When she arrived at the main room, Mrs. Qi leaned on the beauty couch in a languid manner, watched Qi'er play with a smile and told her to be careful from time to time. Bi Wu squatted on the side with a smile, beating her legs for Mrs. Qi, and looked at Qi'er lovingly, looking happy.
The county lord of Qinghua entered the door, looked at Mrs. Qi with a smile and said hello, Mrs. Qi nodded lightly, and did not beckon her to sit. She didn't need Mrs. Qi to greet her, so she found the best seat to sit on, and instructed Biwu to make tea and soup for her. Biwu reluctantly stopped, got up and went out to clean her hands and make a sencha.
Mrs. Qi was angry when she saw that there was no one next to her, glanced at her, and said lightly: "The weather is cold, you are about to get married, your legs and feet are not good, and you are tired of running back and forth, so you should run two less times." ”
The smile of the county lord of Qinghua froze on his face at once. Suddenly, I felt pain all over my body, especially the old wounds, which hurt very badly, and it hurt to the bone. She looked at Mrs. Qi gloomily, Mrs. Qi turned a blind eye, personally fed Qi'er a walnut, hugged Qi'er and kissed her loudly: "My good grandson!" Why is it so painful? ”
Qi'er pouted and kissed Mrs. Qi's face, and said with a smile: "Good grandmother." ”
Mrs. Qi hugged Qi'er and smiled: "Oops, it's really smart and cute." ”
The expression of the county lord of Qinghua gradually recovered, smiled faintly, and said indifferently: "He looks so good and smart, but it's a pity that he is a concubine." It's a shame. ”
Mrs. Qi's face was also gloomy, and she said a little wistfully: "What are you afraid of?" I kept him by my side, the same way. ”
Do you want to raise it yourself? It really hurts. The county lord of Qinghua sneered secretly, and beckoned to Qi'er: "Good boy, come and I'll take a look." ”
Qi'er glanced at her, then leaned close to Mrs. Qi, clinging to Mrs. Qi and not moving, only looking at her secretly.
The county lord of Qinghua was busy giving Ah Jie a look, Ah Jie took out a jade toad from her body and handed it to her, she got up and walked to Qi'er and smiled: "Come, I'll give you this fun." ”
Qi'er looked at the jade toad, took it and threw it on the ground, stepped on it twice, and then ran back to Mrs. Qi's side and clinged to it. Mrs. Qi hurriedly glanced at the county lord of Qinghua, but saw that the county lord of Qinghua crooked the corners of her lips: "What a stubborn child." It was not early, and I left. Then he got up and left.
Seeing her walking away, Biwu squeezed Qi'er's hand in fear and scolded in a low voice: "Qi'er, you are not sensible." ”
Mrs. Qi snorted: "What are you afraid of?" There's me. ”
The county lord of Qinghua walked out of the gate of Liu's mansion, and looked back at the big red lantern hanging in front of Liu's mansion with hatred, dead wife, little broken child, all die! Before she entered the door, she never saw the little broken child dangling in front of her again.
