Chapter Ninety-Three: Five Hundred Taels

Seeing that Chen Qiaoqiao's face darkened, Yinhuo hurriedly said: "No, this is indeed the silver I borrowed, I and Brother Chen Wei are lifelong friends, and we went to Xixia to inquire about the military situation together, I didn't want to meet the army of Xixia halfway, and then I got separated, I didn't expect that I had been stationed at the border pass, and I never came back, I knew that I only knew the situation of the Chen family when I returned to Beijing recently, but I didn't have any savings, so I only came to repay the money when I sent it."

It was said in an orderly manner, but Chen Qiaoqiao didn't believe it, "Where did Chen Wei get so much silver for five thousand taels Even if I lend you something" Yinhuo was speechless for a while, "Brother Chen Wei is the commander in front of the palace, and there are many people, and there is a lot of silver that the people below respect, I am because I offended the powerful people in the court and need to mediate, so I borrowed the silver, don't be careful, even if you are pitiful, I will not be stupid to spend five thousand taels of silver to sympathize with you, is it not if you sympathize with anyone, are you willing to spend five thousand taels?"

This is talking about Chen Qiaoqiao's heart, this is, five thousand taels, what kind of concept is that, the small family will not worry about it for a lifetime, but she feels unsteady when she holds this silver, is this silver really owed to the Chen family

"You take it, here is thirty taels of gold, it's my money this month, give it to you first, and I will hand over the rest to you every month" Yinhuo handed the money bag to Chen Qiaoqiao again. 【Latest chapter reading. "Thirty taels of gold" Chen Qiaoqiao was a little tempted, this is three hundred taels of silver, and this is really a lot of commanding envoys

However, Chen Qiaoqiao remembered that the officials of the Great Song Dynasty also had a lot of other subsidies, for example, during the reign of Renzong Jiayou, the "Lu Order" was officially formulated, such as stipulating that the prime minister and the privy envoy should have 300 pieces of monthly materials, 20 horses of silk and 30 horses of silk for spring and winter clothes, 100 taels of winter cotton, 100 stones of Lu millet per month, 70 people of clothing and food for the humble people, 1,200 bundles of firewood and grass per month, 1,600 scales of charcoal every year, 7 stones of salt, etc.

Thinking like this, he blurted out here: "Isn't there still cloth, cotton, rice grain, charcoal fire or something" Chen Qiaoqiao was annoyed as soon as he said it, this is the rhythm of scraping him clean

Yinhuo didn't care, "Those things are sent once in the spring and once on the winter solstice, and when they are sent down after the New Year, they will definitely be sent to the Chen family" Chen Qiaoqiao was a little ashamed, and hurriedly said, "I just asked, you still have to spend some of this gold yourself, there is entertainment in the officialdom, and it will also be spent."

Yinhuo smiled and said, "I'm walking in the palace, I don't need it at all, besides, the emperor has rewards from time to time, and it's enough to spend."

Chen Qiaoqiao was silent, and said: "Then I will accept this money first, you don't have to worry, pay it back slowly" But she secretly thought in her heart, it is better to save this gold and not use it.

Yinhuo breathed a sigh of relief when he saw her accept the gold, "Don't be in a hurry to get back the previous arrears, it's better not to go out recently"

"No, those silver are a little bit to be returned," Chen Qiaoqiao said resolutely, "If this silver doesn't come back, I won't be able to sleep" Yinhuo said helplessly: "Okay, just remember that King Wu Rong must not mention this matter in front of him"

Chen Qiaoqiao nodded, "I also know that the people of the royal family are not easy to mess with, otherwise, I would have asked King Wu Rong early in the morning to collect debts."

Relatively speechless for a while, Chen Qiaoqiao broke the silence first, "Send me back, you better go back to the yamen first" Yinhuo nodded, he also had a lot of things to do, and the things that didn't hide the jade beggar had to be arranged well, and he had to discuss countermeasures with the emperor, and he really shouldn't stay for a long time.

sent Chen Qiaoqiao to the entrance of the alley, and Yinhuo rode away. Looking at everyone's strange eyes, Chen Qiaoqiao secretly screamed that it was not good, she rode with the man, I am afraid that it will make people point fingers

So he hurriedly put away the gold and hurried back, but he saw the lady of the Fan family walking, "The lady of the Fan family, her spirit is better."

Her face was ruddy, and she said: "Okay, I thought I was old and my spirit would be poor, but it seems that it is no different, now I think it is best to have a girl, I want a little girl in charge."

Chen Qiaoqiao said with a smile: "That's when you have a son, you naturally want a girl, and it's a blessing for both children to have children, our family's Zhongkang, it's not that I want one in my heart, but I don't know if I can get my wish Fan family lady, you are a blessed person, you can still be pregnant after so long, this is your creation."

"What's the matter, isn't it that the Fang Zi I told you last time was idle, so I boiled a big pot of water, and sat on the steamer shelf and steamed it, don't say it, I'm really refreshed, and I feel like my blood is clear." Later, it was steamed a few more times, and it became like this" The lady of the Fan family pointed to her stomach with a smile on her face.

Of course, Chen Qiaoqiao remembered the recipe that the Fan family lady said, wolfberry, dodder seed, schisandra, raspberry, psyllium, puzzle kernel, black medicine, and the roasted turtle plate were put in the pot, steamed through the water, and people stayed in the steamer, which was a kind of steam therapy, using boiling water from Chinese medicinal materials to open up the blood veins of the whole body, and I didn't think that there was really some effect, Chen Qiaoqiao thought about it, do you want Hu Feng to give it a try

If she had children and concerns, she would have less resentment in her heart and become more gentle.

The lady of the Fan family seemed to see Chen Qiaoqiao's thoughts, "Mrs. Chen, you go back and persuade your daughter-in-law to give it a try, I am a living example, even if this woman is not for her husband's family, she should have a child for herself, and there is a person who dies when she is old, and the others are all false."

Chen Qiaoqiao smiled slightly, "You have to go back to me and talk to her"

As soon as Chen Qiaoqiao walked into the door of Chen's house, the little man who guarded the door glanced at her in a panic, Chen Qiaoqiao couldn't help but wonder, what was wrong Walking into the front hall, she saw Hu Feng serving an old man, who was gathering together and didn't know what to say, the old man nodded frequently, looking like he was negotiable. There was also a dejected young man standing beside him.

Chen Qiaoqiao looked at it, isn't this the patriarch of the Chen clan He brought Chen Jing here, could it be for the compensation of five hundred taels of silver, this is a matter that was decided in the court, ironclad, he didn't want to regret it.

Seeing Chen Qiaoqiao walk in, the eyes of the patriarch Chen sharpened, this woman, when she first went to the ancestral hall, why didn't she find that such a difficult person dared to blackmail his son and blamed his son for not being angry, and he was infected with a habit of breaking his sleeves, now it's okay, not only was he pointed at, not to mention continuing to study, it was impossible to find a serious daughter-in-law, and even his reputation in the Chen family was not as good as before, but he spent a lot of money to make those who wanted to oppose him stop, It's just that the next time the ancestral hall is opened, maybe the position of the patriarch will not be kept

"Oh, the patriarch is here, it's just a trivial matter, and you have to run by yourself, it's really a shame that you can't go, this silver ticket, you ask Chen to bring it" Chen Qiaoqiao simply picked out the words, blocked the way, and told him that there was no way out. This Xu Huifang and Shu Ping are smart, hiding in the room and not coming out.

Chen Qiaoqiao sat on the top with a big grin, and shouted: "Hu Feng, make tea for your mother-in-law" Hu Feng's face changed slightly, but he looked respectful and honestly went to make tea. However, the Chen patriarch snorted coldly, "The Chen family heard that you are very majestic today, and you rode with the commander of the capital, and did some dirty things in the market, and the Chen family's face was all lost to you."

Chen Qiaoqiao's eyes were cold, and when she saw the smile on Hu Feng's mouth, she understood that it must be her chewing the root of her tongue, but it was her own business, how could Hu Feng know that Chen Qiaoqiao couldn't help but be alert, didn't she send someone to follow her secretly

I only blame myself for being too careless, I was busy collecting debts, ignoring that there is a daughter-in-law at home who is ready to find fault at any time, and it seems that I have now found a strong accomplice.

He had a dislike with Patriarch Chen, of course Hu Feng would seize the opportunity well, "Patriarch, what are you talking about, who are you listening to nonsense At that time, I was fainting Lord Yin kindly took me to the hospital to see a doctor, so many officers and soldiers are in full view, what can we do to add to this crime, I am not easy to frame, Bao Fu Yin was also there at the time, if you don't believe it, let's go and confront it" After that, he deliberately glanced at Chen Jing, "This framed others, what should be the crime, your son couldn't be clearer."

Patriarch Chen's face turned pale, and he couldn't say a word.

"Patriarch Chen, don't speculate for more than half a sentence, if you are here to send a silver ticket, you put it down and leave, if you come to find fault, I will still say that sentence, see you in court" Anyway, this face has been torn, and it is useless to say more.

"Bang" No one dared to say this to his face, so angry that his beard kept shaking, "Chen, you don't want to be arrogant, don't talk about your ruining family style, what is the reason for you to blackmail my child?"

"Blackmailing your precious son to do that dirty thing by himself, and daring to frame our family Shu Ping, almost took our Shu Ping's life, as long as you pay five hundred taels is cheap, you dare to come to our Chen family to make trouble Chen Jing's situation at the time, didn't you tell your father if I didn't want you to pay for the silver, according to the law, you are going to be in a three-year prison cell, isn't this not worth five hundred taels, this case is a big deal, you go to write a complaint, and you will sue the court tomorrow, I want to see if there is no heavenly reason, and the others who are framed dare to be so arrogant"

Chen was a little flustered, and said tremblingly: "Dad, I advised you not to come here, but you didn't listen to it, is this going to my life?"
