Chapter 56: Silence

"Daddy, what's the use of you beating him? Anyway, it's already happened, forget it, so be it. Anyway, for the little rabbit cub to study, Yun Yi doesn't know what to say. Now you don't have to read it, it's just right, and you don't have to embarrass Yunyi. ”

"What are you embarrassed about? Lao Tzu is only embarrassed now. Du Chensheng glared at Du Yunnian fiercely, eager to eat him, "How dare you borrow thirty taels of silver from others?" Do you know that your mother and I don't have thirty taels in coffin? If you can't sell Sister Ling, what are you going to do? ”

"I didn't borrow thirty taels, I only borrowed fifteen taels, but the casino directly doubled and told me to lose thirty taels." Speaking of this, Du Yunnian was also very aggrieved and desperate.

"What's going on, tell me in detail." As soon as Niu heard this, he hurriedly asked.

Fifteen taels and thirty taels are not the same concept at all. Even if you sell Du Fangling and pay back fifteen taels, can you still lose fifteen taels at home?

Du Yunnian told the second elder what happened.

Niu Shi said angrily: "This casino is too black-hearted, originally it only owed fifteen taels, how can it be directly doubled, and it has to be repaid thirty taels?" This thing doesn't make sense when it comes to heaven! ”

Du Chensheng was thoughtful.

Seeing this, Niu Shi hurriedly asked Du Chensheng, "Old man, what good ideas do you have?" ”

Du Chensheng glared at her, and said angrily: "What good ideas can I have?" ”

Seeing that he didn't have much idea, Niu Shi simply came up with an idea on his own: "Look, why don't you go find Yun Yi and let him think of a way to reduce the fifteen taels?" Since we owe fifteen taels in Yunnian, we will admit it and pay back fifteen taels. As for the other fifteen taels, that's not what we should pay back, why should we double it? Even if you sue the old official, we have a reason. Yun Yi can't do it there, let's ask Yun Chang to write a post to the county magistrate and ask him to comment on it for us. ”

Du Chensheng laughed angrily at her ignorant words: "People's casinos rely on this to eat, how can anyone just say a few words, and he will give away the silver?" Do you know who you can afford to gamble on? The kind of black and white all-you-can-eat, with a backstage, even the county master doesn't dare to touch it at will. Just with Yunyi, a bookkeeper, and Yunchang, an ordinary talent, people will help you offend people, and you will think beautifully. ”

Du Chensheng has been a bookkeeper in the city for more than 20 years, so he is naturally familiar with these things, and Niu Shi believed it when he heard it, and said worriedly: "Could it be that we just admit it like this, and really pay them back thirty taels of silver?" ”

Du Chensheng thought for a while and came up with an idea: "In this way, I will go to the city with Yunnian tomorrow to inquire and see if the casino can be accommodating, if I can pay back some silver, it will naturally be good." At that time, no matter how much silver you have to repay, you should take it out and pay it back first, and then talk about it after passing this hurdle first. ”

He paused: "Let's do it first." ”

Niu's eyes widened: "What? You mean, let's give these thirty taels of silver? This is our coffin book, do you want to die and can't even mix a coffin? No, I can't afford to pay for it. Saying that, she patted Du Yunnian hard, "If you have the ability to owe money, solve it yourself, don't look for me and your father." ”

She had not only thirty taels but fifty taels in hand. But the money was in her pocket, and she didn't want to take it out.

Du Yunnian held his head and received a slap from his mother, but his eyes looked at his father.

Du Chensheng sighed and said patiently: "Old woman, this is just temporary, you take out the money for the time being." The days are tight, and the day to repay the money is coming soon, even if you want to sell Sister Ling, this far water can't save the thirst, and it can't solve the problem. Do you know that the casino has a group of thugs, who are in charge of going to the door to ask for debts? If we don't pay back the money, we will come to the door, not only will we have to pay back the money, but our family will lose face. Therefore, the money will be repaid first. After the New Year, the old family is gone, let's find a way to see if we let Sister Fei out or sell Sister Ling. ”

Du Fangling, who was outside the window, originally heard Du Chensheng say that he would let the Niu family come out with the silver, and there was some hope in his heart, but now, his heart suddenly sank, and his face became pale and pale.

Du Jinning was afraid that she would stay here any longer, and she would be too out of shape for people to discover, so she gently tugged at her sleeve, shook her head, and motioned for her to go back to the house with her.

Du Fangling nodded.

Du Jinning made another silent gesture, and then took the lead in getting up, tiptoeing around, and rushed back to the window of the small third room. She glanced back and saw Du Fangling quietly following behind her, relieved herself, went to the window, helped her up to the windowsill first, turned over again, and entered the house.

"How's it going, do you hear anything?" Chen saw the two of them coming back and hurriedly stepped forward.

Previously, Du Jinning told Du Yunnian about his debts, and when he heard the movement in the courtyard outside, he pulled Du Fangling to listen to the corner, and the Chen family kept hanging their hearts. Now seeing that the two of them have returned safely, this heart has finally been put down.

"Mother, grandfather and grandmother agreed to sell the third sister." Du Jinning's face was ugly.

Although Du Yunnian didn't say what he was going to do in Fucheng, he knew that if he thought about it, thirty taels of silver, such a price could only be sold to Qinglou, and it was a relatively high-end Qinglou Chu Pavilion, otherwise he would not have specifically picked Du Fangling instead of Du Fangfei.

Her gaze froze.

Chen's face turned pale, looking at Du Fangling, who was trembling, she gritted her teeth and asked Du Jinning, "I sent your third sister away overnight?" ”

This sentence is the tone of inquiry. Everything Du Jinning showed made her unconsciously regard her as the backbone.

"Where?" Du Jinning asked, "Without the third sister, won't they sell the eldest sister?" The eldest sister and the third sister are not here, and there is also the fourth sister. ”

The reason why Du Yunnian takes a fancy to Du Fangling is because of her development space. Du Fanghui is no worse than Du Fangling in appearance, although she is two years younger, at most she only sells a few taels of silver, which does not affect Du Yunnian's repayment of debts.

"So, what then?" Chen snorted.

She's not the kind of cowardly woman who has no idea, but she really can't help it.

"Don't worry, my grandfather plans to use their silver to pay off the debt first, and the sale will be talked about after the New Year. Probably because I'm afraid that we will make trouble and have a bad New Year. Du Jinning said, a mocking smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Do they have silver? Why do you sell us when you have money? Du Fanghui was the most naΓ―ve, and asked with big eyes in confusion.

Despite the cruel answer, Du Fangfei still touched her sister's head with a wry smile: "Because they are reluctant to give up the silver, and we are nothing in their eyes." ”

Du Fanghui was silent.
