Chapter 40: Internal and External Troubles

"You are really confused, you know that the gambling house is opened by the surname Zhao, and you still dare to go in. This matter is clearly your two friends who teamed up to trap you. ”

Yin Yukui put away the IOU, glanced at the shopkeeper with fire-filled eyes, and went out at Fang Fei's signal to call someone to seize the shopkeeper, and asked, "How to deal with this matter, shall we report to the official?" ”

Fang Fei shook her head: "The official can't help the surname Zhao, after all, his gambling house has been prepared with the official mansion and the procedures are complete." It's better to wait for my uncle to come back in two days, and then make a decision! ”

Yin Yukui nodded, and after ordering the things in the store, she watched Fang Fei push open the door of the backyard, as if she was looking for something, so she caught up with her and asked, "What are you looking for?" Behind this was a hill, but now it is overgrown with weeds and there is not much to see. ”

"I think there should be an ice cellar here, and the ice that the shopkeeper has brought in from here."

Hearing her say this, Yin Yukui volunteered to climb to the top of the hill. After a while, I heard her shout, "I found it!" It should be right there at the entrance! ”

The hill in the backyard of Tianbao Pavilion was originally an ice cellar left by the previous dynasty, which Fang Fei only knew about when she was about to leave Los Angeles in her previous life. But at that time, she didn't know about the so-called shopkeeper, and she didn't know if the Zhao family had carried out a comprehensive encirclement and suppression of the Yin Mansion's business at that time, anyway, she was coaxed by Su Linglong to be with her all day long, and she didn't care about anything else.

But this time, she picked a ready-made bargain, and pushed the door in with Yin Yukui to take a look, and found that the scale of the ice cellar was beyond her imagination!

Fang Fei immediately asked people to guard this ice cellar, and said to Yin Yukui mysteriously: "Third sister, we can use this ice cellar to make a fortune." ”

Yin Yukui looked at her: "You want to sell ice?" It's a good idea, but we don't have many people in Los Angeles who can afford ice in the summer, and we have to hire someone to divide and carry it and guard it, which is very cumbersome. ”

"Naturally, it's not as simple as selling ice, you'll know in a few days!"

Fang Fei pulled her back with a little smugness, and suddenly remembered something and asked Yin Yukui: "By the way, third sister, don't you think that the second aunt has been a little too quiet recently?" ”

"She? Hey...... Since the last incident, both mother and daughter have taken a detour when they saw me. Of course I know why she suddenly quieted down, but I just feel guilty in my heart! Besides, they also know that now their grandmother is also tired of their mother, and if they are not honest, they are afraid that their grandmother will really send Yin Qiongzhi to the family temple! ”

"I think the expression of the second aunt in Songhetang that day was a little unnatural. Do you think, something happened to the long room and the third room, but the second room didn't have anything? The purpose of the Zhao family now is to cut off our funds, is the money in the second room in the hands of the second aunt? Can she really manage the money? ”

Hearing her say this, Yin Yukui's face also changed. She naturally knew what kind of straw bale the second lady was, otherwise she wouldn't be able to teach Yin Qiongzhi such a waste. But after thinking about it, he didn't have a clue, so he said, "Probably not, right?" Although she is usually selfish, she is very selfish, but she is very close to silver. I heard that even if the second uncle wants to withdraw anything from her, she will deduct it! ”

"I hope so! Anyway, as long as she can manage the money account of the second room, it can be regarded as a credit. ”

It is also a blessing and a curse, the two sisters have just discussed the matter of the second room in private, and this night, I heard the crying and noisy in the yard over there, which was very lively.

Later, even Mrs. Yin was shocked, and at night, she was helped by the maid to the gate of the courtyard, and reprimanded the husband and wife who were still arguing inside: "Why is this happening? Unorthodox! ”

Hearing his mother's voice, his second uncle Yin Congshan hurriedly ran out to open the door. Fang Fei followed her grandmother at this time, and when she came into the house, she saw that the second lady was slumped on the ground, crying with tears and snot, and the hairpin on her head was scattered to the ground.

It seems that things are really not small.

Then, after Mrs. Yin sat down, Yin Congshan held her breath and glared at her wife hatefully: "Mother doesn't know, this poisonous woman actually took her dowry and all the cash that can be withdrawn from the account to put the money in the seal without me!" Now not only can the capital not be recovered, but also a huge debt! If I hadn't asked again and again today, I'm afraid she would have continued to hide it. ”

After speaking, he pointed to the second lady and gritted his teeth and said: "Since I married you and entered the door, I have never had two hearts, you just eat and wear extravagantly on weekdays, and even take three children to follow you!" Now that you are hiding from me, your family has been ruined, and you and I have come to an end as a husband and wife for more than 20 years. My temple is too small to afford to raise a great Bodhisattva like you, so while my mother is here tonight, I'll follow you—"

"Erlang! Don't be angry! You sit down for me first, it's all a family, what's not to talk about well? ”

Old Madam Yin's face was also very ugly at this time, but she was still maintaining her daughter-in-law's face in front of everyone. On the contrary, the second lady was crying with her face to the ground at this time, and she didn't dare to raise her head anymore, looking at her like this, Fang Fei's premonition in her heart became more and more bad.

Sure enough, after she trembled and said the amount of silver, even Old Madam Yin was speechless. After a while, Fang Fei saw that her grandmother's face was wrong, and hurriedly said, "Grandmother! What's wrong with you? Don't scare me. ”

Old Madam Yin shook her head with difficulty, and the next moment, she clenched her teeth and fell backwards on her back, unconscious!

Old Madam Yin's illness can alarm everyone in the Yin Mansion. Fang Fei was anxious, but she was not surprised by the second lady's generous spending of being able to find someone to lend 50,000 taels of silver and then run to put the money in the seal, she was afraid that her grandmother would be angry and do something.

Fortunately, after the doctors invited to see it, they all said that she just fainted in a moment, and it should be fine.

Everyone was shocked, and then the uncle of the third room, Yin Congde, also rushed back, he didn't care about the matter in Tianbao Pavilion, and came to his mother's room to say hello first. Then the three brothers had the opportunity to meet together, and discussed how to solve the matter of the second room.

The second uncle, Yin Congshan, was very guilty, and said with shame: "I'm sorry for my brother and third brother, they all blame me for being incompetent, and I let this stupid woman affect the family." Now I'm still angry with my mother and I'm sick, I'm really unfaithful and unfilial....... I'm really shameless! ”

As the eldest brother, Yin Congjia has always been known for his generosity, he hurriedly comforted his younger brother, and said to Yin Congde: "Third brother, I know that my younger brother and sister have not been in good health all these years, so there must not be much surplus in your room." This time, since such a thing happened in the second room, then it is my duty as a brother to pay 20,000 taels from me first, and let's find a way to do the rest! ”

"Uncle, although my niece is not capable, since it is the second uncle who has an accident, we can't stand idly by."

Yin Yukui walked out at this time, turned to her father and said, "Daddy, my daughter is willing to take out her dowry of three thousand taels of silver." For the rest, it depends on Daddy's meaning. ”

Her move instantly made Yin Congde's eyes red: "Silly girl, your second uncle is Daddy's own brother, how can Daddy use your dowry silver?" Don't worry, Daddy has a way. ”

Yin Congde then said to the two brothers: "Although I am not as good at business as the two brothers over the years, I have accumulated some silver in my hands. Big brother and second brother, I am willing to pay 15,000 taels, so that after calculation, there will not be much debt left. ”
