Chapter 013 Settle accounts after the fall

"Take it back, take it back?" Wang Xinjia stiffly pulled the corners of her mouth, hooking an ugly arc, and she said dryly: "Second young grandmother, you said to take back the rented shop?" ”

"Yes," Wang Qifang lowered her head, held a handkerchief, carefully wiped her tears for Yuan Niang, and when she heard Wang Xinjia's reply, she didn't raise her head, and said lightly, "My shop is rented or sold, and I naturally have the right to take it back." ”

"Yes, yes, you do have the right," Wang Xinjia bit his lower lip, held back the uneasiness in his heart, and persuaded: "It's just that the second young grandmother, our lease is not enough, these shops signed a lease for fifty years, and now it has only been three years...... Even if it were to be taken back, it would be forty-six years later—"

"Fifty years?" Wang Qifang wiped her daughter's tears, put the handkerchief back into her sleeve pocket, she raised her eyelids, glanced at Wang Xin's family coldly, and pulled the corners of her mouth slightly, "Hmph, can I still live in fifty years." ”

"This, this...... Second young grandmother, what do you mean by this? When I first rented out the shop, the slave maid also persuaded you, saying that the tenant's request for a long lease period is too long, and it is not cost-effective for us. But you were in a hurry to use the silver, and you didn't listen to the advice of the slave and maid, and insisted on renting it out for a long time. Now that I regret it, it doesn't seem good. ”

The more Wang Xinjia listened, the more wrong it became, if she didn't understand it wrongly, Wang Qifang wanted to regret it.

Back?

How? I think that at the beginning, this errand was led by her Wang Xin, and then she helped Wang Qifang handle it, and they ran back and forth for several days, and the two of them got a lot of benefits from it.

If this thing is done according to the wishes of the second young grandmother, does it also require them to spit out the silver they ate again?

No, absolutely not

Thinking of the piles of white silver, and the property that had already been in hand flew out again, Wang Xinjia's heart trembled. In a hurry, she forgot her husband's warning and didn't hesitate to say anything.

"Huh? What's so bad? Wang Qifang snorted and said casually, "The shop is mine, and the title deed is also mine, I want to rent it, and if I don't want to rent it, I will take it back, even if this lawsuit goes to court, I am justified." What's so bad? Hey, Wang Xinjia, listening to what you mean, it seems that I am very unhappy that I take back the shop, what, do I have to do something to ask you minions to agree?

Or, what did you do and what benefits did you eat from the middle of this errand when you first started this errand? Otherwise, how could your reaction be so strong? So strong that I forgot the distinction between master and servant, huh? ”

"The slave maid doesn't dare," Wang Xin's family was regained a little reason by Wang Qifang's unusually cold 'en' word, she hurriedly bowed down, her forehead touched the ground, and eagerly defended: "The slave and maid are also in a hurry, so they lost their manners, and asked the second young grandmother to forgive her sins, but the slave and maid are indeed wronged." The slave maid is also for the sake of the second young grandmother, so I persuade you not to take back the shop, but not to receive any benefits or benefits. ”

"Oh? Good for me? What's good for me, let's hear it."

"Grandma Hui Er, what you just said is right, the shop is you, whether you rent or sell, no one dares to say anything," Wang Xinjia still buried his head in his knees, and after thinking for a while, he said in a deep voice: "It's just that if the lease period is not up and the shop is recovered, the rent will be refunded twice." This, the rent of these forty-seven years, is not a small amount, not to mention the double compensation? ”

"Well, this silver is indeed not a small amount," Wang Qifang looked at Wang Xin's house for a while, and the onlookers thought she was going to be angry, but they didn't expect the second young grandmother to actually nod in agreement, frowning slightly and nodding in agreement.

"Yes, the slave is worried about that, that's why—"

Seeing this, Wang Xinjia thought that Wang Qifang had been persuaded by himself, so he hurriedly raised his head, and expressed his loyalty by the way.

It's a pity that before she finished her loyal words, she heard Wang Qifang's words:

"Still, I can afford the money."

What the? The second young grandmother said that she was rich?

When Wang Xinjia heard this, he was stunned for a moment, forgot to close his mouth, and looked at Wang Qifang stupidly.

It's not that she is making a fuss, but as one of Wang Qifang's companions, Wang Xin's family knows her financial situation better than anyone else - a person who even pawns the dowry at the bottom of the box, even if he is rescued by his maternal uncle, it is impossible to come up with such a large sum of silver in a short time.

More than 40 years of rent does not seem like much, but it is definitely not a small amount. Rao is that the husband and wife are greedy for two-thirds of the amount, and the remaining one-third is also five or six thousand taels. Multiply it by two, that is 13,400 taels, not to mention Wang Qifang, who is poor and white, even if it is put on the wealthy Zhao family, it is a huge amount of money.

"Why, didn't you hear what Grandma Ben said?" Wang Qifang saw Wang Xinjia's unbelievable appearance, her heart was secretly refreshed, she deliberately raised her voice, and said: "Wang Xinjia, this errand will be handed over to you, the rest of the rent and the compensation for breach of contract, Mama Zhao will calculate the specific amount later, and then hand over the silver ticket to you." What about you, take the silver ticket and the contract, hurry up and take back the shop, those shops are still of great use to the young grandmother"

"This ......" Wang Xinjia's face became extremely ugly, and he took it back? How can it be so lightweight?

The rent written in the contract is 6 taels per month for each shop, which is 72 taels a year, and the rent for 47 years is more than 3,000 taels. At the beginning, there were two shops rented by her, that is, more than 6,000 taels of silver.

But in fact, the real rent charged by their husband and wife was sixteen taels per month for each shop, and all the extra silver fell into their purses.

Now, if Wang Qifang wants to take back the shop, if she wants to pay for the rent of the room, she will definitely pay it according to six taels per month, and the rest of the deficit needs to be borne by Wang Xin and his wife......

But most of the silver has already been spent, and in the past few years, Wang Xin and his family have been buying fields and houses, and there are only a few hundred taels of silver left, so where can they go to get the silver and still have a deficit?

"Well, taking the money back to the shop shouldn't be a difficult errand, presumably three days is enough." Wang Qifang didn't seem to be satisfied with Wang Xin's reaction, and added a large barrel of oil to the fire, "Three days later, the shop will be handed over to Mama Zhao completely, and after the errand is completed, Grandma Ben will consider letting your family redeem themselves." If you can't do it, hmph, my Wang Qi Niang doesn't keep useless minions"

"What the second young grandmother said is right, didn't you just quarrel and have no serious errands?" Mama Zhao was very satisfied with Wang Qifang's performance, and when she saw the painful expressions on the faces of those slaves, she was even more comfortable, and said with a smile: "In addition to these shops, there are also jewelry that you can help pawn, and all of them will be redeemed for the second young grandmother." Hehe, rest assured, we have some silver to redeem the jewelry, but you have to take the pawn ticket to redeem it."

What the? Jewelry also wants to be redeemed?

When everyone saw that Wang Xin's family was deflated in front of the second young grandmother, they were secretly glad that they were not unlucky ghosts, but they didn't expect Mama Zhao's words to make them uneasy.

"No, the second young grandmother, some jewelry is a death deed, even if you have money, you can't redeem it."

Wang Renjia endured it, but in the end he still didn't hold back, and blurted out his complaints.

There's no way, it's not that she wants to help everyone out. It's true, it's about herself, and she can't hang it high.

Although everyone present, except for Zijuan and Mama Zhao on Wang Qifang's side, none of them had been greedy for Wang Qifang's dowry. But when it comes to jewelry alone, the one who runs errands for Wang Qifang the most is her Wang Ren.

I think that at the beginning, a white jade bracelet inlaid with gold and jade, Wang Ren had more than 260 taels, and when it was finally handed over to Wang Qifang, it was only 60 taels, and all the more than 200 taels were greedy by Wang Ren and his family; and the group flower Jin Tian inlaid with colorful glass, which told Wang Qifang that it was only seventy taels, but the actual amount was more than three hundred and twenty taels; There is also the silver hollow four butterflies flying and swaying, as well as the red sapphire necklace, and the white jade gilt grate......

If you count it carefully, there are thirty or forty pieces of jewelry that have been "dang" by the hands of Wang Xin and his wife. Each piece of fine jewelry was of great value, and the two of them made a lot of money from it.

Now that the second young grandmother has turned it out, let alone let them all redeem it, even if they redeem one-tenth, they don't have enough silver.

Do you still want to spit out everything you eat and swallow in your mouth?

Alas, the point is that even if you spit it out, who will make up the difference in the middle?

"Well, you're right," Wang Qifang nodded, and then said to Mama Zhao: "Mama, I remember that you have a list there, all the jewelry I pawned, how much silver I pawned at the beginning, whether it was dead or alive, every transaction is recorded in detail, but is there such a thing?" ”

"Back to the second young grandmother, the old slave does have a list" Zhao Mama claimed to be, and then took out a folded white paper from the spacious wide-sleeved sleeve pocket, and shook it open, "Wang Ren's family, there are a total of thirty-six pieces of jewelry pawned by your hands, of which eleven pieces are death deeds, these eleven pieces of jewelry are redeemed for your credit, and you are not to blame for not redeeming the second young grandmother." But the remaining twenty-five pieces of jewelry, you must redeem them intact, one less, and don't ask for the old face of your family in the Wang family for three or four lifetimes."

"Second young grandmother, what if the slaves and maids are useless and mess up the errand?"

Wang Xinjia was silent for a long time, and finally made up his mind, and asked fiercely through gritting his back molars.

"Hehe, don't worry, it's not in the way of bad ability. But if this young grandmother knows, who dares to bully and betray the master, then don't blame this young grandmother for turning her face and ruthlessly," Wang Qifang said as she took out a roll of yellowed white paper from the placket of her clothes, "These will not be returned to me."
