Chapter 142: I Only Dare to Trust You
Cui'er took the booklet, and looked at the wooden box inside the unwrapped baggage, and when she opened the box and saw the shining silver ingot, she couldn't help but be stunned.
There was nothing else in the baggage that Le Zi carried, some were actually a wooden box thickly wrapped in silk, and there was a snow-white silver ingot arranged in the box, the silver ingot was large and small, and there were one or two gold ingots mixed with it, although Cui'er couldn't say the exact number, but these silver ingots were at least three or five hundred taels.
"Sister-in-law Qian, this is?" Cui'er was a little confused by this sudden incident, and looked at the same mengmeng, and couldn't help but ask.
"Sister Cui'er...... I don't know......" Le Zi swallowed hard, "When our lady left the shop to go to the county, she said that she had a burden locked in the ebony cabinet of the shopkeeper, and if she sent back a note, let me send the contents of the cabinet to you, and it would not be too late to ......" Le Zi said this, looking at the silver in the bag with a somewhat difficult expression, and then continued.
"I listened to Madame's words at the time, thinking it was just an ordinary thing, but I didn't expect ......" Lezi was a little difficult to speak, he never thought that the things that Mrs. Qian wanted to bring to Cui'er would be so much silver, if he knew that this was in the baggage, Lezi himself was not sure if he would do something treacherous, and took this burden and ran away.
"It's okay......" Le Zi was stunned for a long time, and suddenly let go of his thoughts, "I was curious several times when I was on the road, and I wanted to open this burden to see, and I thought that Mrs. said that I must not open it, so I couldn't help but open it, if I opened it, I would become the villain who ran away with money." ”
Lezi comforted himself there, but even Qingshan and Cui'er's hearts became heavier, and Sister-in-law Qian sent the silver to herself. Does it mean that there is something wrong with Brother Qian in the county? Thinking of this, Cui'er suddenly remembered the booklet, and when she wanted to open the booklet, she suddenly saw a letter falling on the ground.
There are only four words on the envelope of "Cui'er personally opened the ......". After Cui'er saw this, she opened the letter and read the content of the letter at a glance, only to feel that it was bitter and sour.
The bitter thing is that if Mrs. Qian asks to send this letter written in this letter, it means that the lawsuit between the shopkeeper and the family is not successful, and the status of their family is in jeopardy, so they will transfer all the family funds saved over the years to prevent them from being taken away when the Qian family's own family raids the house.
The sour thing is that Mrs. Qian wrote four words at the end of the letter, I only dare to believe you. made Cui'er feel that she was trusted by this big sister who had known her for a short time, but was very confidant, and this feeling of being entrusted with life and death made Cui'er's heart sour, but it was not uncomfortable.
"Cui'er. What did Mrs. Qian say? Lian Qingshan looked at Cui'er's expression very strangely, and couldn't help but reach out and take the letter in Cui'er's hand, and after reading the letter, he sighed heavily, "It's us who hurt Brother Qian!" ”
"Qingshan......" Cui'er looked at the silver on the table, opened the booklet she had just clipped, took a deep breath and said, "This silver." Let's take it for Brother Qian and Sister-in-law Qian, and when they come back in the future, we will return the things to their original owners. ”
"Okay, let the Fun brothers be a witness." When Lian Qingshan heard Cui'er say this, he nodded in agreement, and counted the amount of silver with Lezi. It is no different from what is written in the booklet, and Cui'er even wrote a receipt and pressed her handprint to let the fun be brought to Mrs. Qian, and the handover is completed.
Lezi saw that it was almost dawn outside, and arched his hand at Lian Qingshan and Cui'er. was about to go back, Cui'er looked at the dark outside, and it was very cold, so she was busy leaving him to eat at home and then go back, seeing that Le Zi insisted on refusing, she retreated and went to the kitchen to take a few steamed buns and wrap them up and stuff them for Lezi, so that he could take them with him on the way.
After sending off the fun, even Qingshan and Cui'er had already lost their sleepiness, looking at the mahogany box on the table, the three hundred and sixty taels of silver that had just been counted, and they only felt very heavy in their hearts.
"Qingshan, you said Brother Qian, will they be fine?" Cui'er looked at the silver and said faintly, why did she think that Sister-in-law Qian gave the silver, as if she was on her deathbed?
"They will be fine, even if they are kicked out by their own family, the most poor brother Qian can still go to other shops to be the shopkeeper, and you see they still have so much silver, let's help them save the silver well, and when they come back, they can use this silver to make a shop and do a business again."
Lian Qingshan was very distressed when he looked at Cui'er frowning slightly, and quickly put all the silver back into the wooden box, and after wrapping the layers of baggage, he jumped a few times and climbed onto the beam of the roasted tea room, and then stuffed the heavy box on the beam.
"Cui'er, look, can you see it?" When Qingshan jumped down from the beam, he asked Cui'er, and he looked left and right from several angles, but he didn't see what was hidden on the beam, so he nodded and was relieved.
"Alas......" put things away, Cui'er put down a little bit in her heart, only to feel a burst of sleepiness welling up, and was sent back to the East House by Lian Qingshan to make up for sleep.
The sun had not yet risen, Lian Qingshan soothed Cui'er to sleep, and only the morning birds occasionally chirped once or twice in the whole yard, which was very quiet and peaceful.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
At this time, at the door of the Qian family's grocery store in Shili Town, there was a chaos, a man who looked like a steward was sitting at the door of the Qian family's grocery store, looking at the five or six subordinates he brought, forcibly opened the door of the shop, and took stock of the things in the shop.
The original account room and the two guys in the shop, when they saw such a scene when they were working early in the morning, they were all panicked, and they came forward to obstruct it, but they were frightened by the words of the steward and were stunned on the spot.
The steward with a mustache and a small square step squinted at these people in the Qian family's shop, "Do you know that your shopkeeper, oh no, it is the original shopkeeper's Qian Lishui, he has made a mistake, our Qian family wants to take back this shop, and this shop will have nothing to do with Qian Lishui in the future." ”
The steward looked at the account room and the two guys again, and the contempt in his eyes was very obvious, "Hmph...... If you dare to hinder the business of my housekeeper. In the future, you don't want to do this Qian family's grocery store! ”
The fun who rushed back early had already arrived in the town at this time, and saw the Qian family steward who was a fox and a fake tiger, and a man who was churning in the shop with rough hands and feet. I thought of Mrs. Qian's expression when she was leaving, as if she was on the battlefield, and suddenly felt chills all over her body, this is the Qian family's grocery store that she has worked hard for three years? It's so chilling!
Although there are not many people who get up early, whether they are rushing to the market or staying idle, they are willing to go to the Qian family's grocery store on weekdays, just like modern people like to go to the mall when they have nothing to do. When these people arrived at the door of the Qian family's grocery store, they naturally refused to miss the excitement when they saw this battle, the door of the Qian family's grocery store. It's fenced off on the inside and outside of the three floors, and we have to see what is going on with this grocery store.
The Qian family's grocery store in Shili Town is very large, and the person in charge takes five or six people to take inventory here, and refuses to let the original people in the grocery store help, even if it only takes a long time to inventory the goods in the store. What's more, they also have to take inventory of the things in the warehouse and yard, and strive not to let Qian Lishui take away a penny of the shop!
This inventory has been delayed for a long time, and the people who come are all thugs, let them fight, take inventory or something, it's good to be able to recognize the words, where can you get it quickly. Because I was afraid of making a mistake in my busyness, I even stopped people who came to buy things from outside. The people who wanted to buy things were so upset that they almost quarreled, and in order to stop the people who bought things, the steward stood at the door with two people, so that there were fewer people who could do the inventory.
Waiting for Qian Lishui, the shopkeeper of the money, to lie in the carriage at the head of the house, Mrs. Qian drove the carriage. When the family returned to Shili Town, the person in charge and the five or six people hadn't even finished counting the contents of the grocery store.
The onlookers saw that a carriage was coming straight to the Qian family's grocery store, and they all got out of the way, and saw that it was Mrs. Qian who was sitting in the car. There was an uproar. Someone who was familiar with Mrs. Qian immediately leaned over and asked, "Mrs. Qian, you have been running a shop in the town for many years, why do you say that if you don't let it go, you won't let it go?" ”
Others are in a hurry to buy things, and when they see someone talking, they can't help but ask, "When can I buy things?" ”
Mrs. Qian got out of the carriage and saw that the door of the shop that she had worked hard for more than ten years was crowded with people, and the thugs of the Qian family were churning the goods in the shop, and the account books on the counter were stacked scattered, and several books had fallen to the ground...... Such a scene stung Mrs. Qian's eyes and her heart, she had worked hard to run the home for so many years, and this time it was a failure.
Mrs. Qian had tears in her eyes, and after a fixed glance at the shop, she looked at the onlookers, there were many of them, Mrs. Qian was very familiar, and the neighbors for so many years, although they usually did not have deep friendships, the concern and sympathy in their eyes moved Mrs. Qian at the same time, and her heart was extremely sour.
When Mrs. Qian found that the fun mixed in the crowd nodded at her invisibly, a stone hanging in her heart could be regarded as falling to the ground, as long as most of the family wealth she had sorted out had been transferred, then her family would have the capital to turn over, and she would not fall from then on.
While Mrs. Qian breathed a sigh of relief, she felt a deep sadness in her heart, the clansmen of the Qian family are relatives of their own family, and they treat the children of the side branches like herself, who are not as good as these ordinary neighbors, and even friends like Cui'er who have just known each other for less than a year!
Mrs. Qian took a deep breath, pulled up her sleeves, and bowed deeply to the onlookers around her. "My husband was beaten by the Qian family and couldn't get out of bed, resting in the carriage, I, Qian Liu, on behalf of me and my husband, would like to thank you for taking care of you for many years."
As soon as Mrs. Qian's words fell, the voices of the onlookers next to her suddenly quieted, and everyone looked at the proprietress of the Qian family's grocery store in front of them blankly, wondering why the Qian shopkeeper was so powerful that he would be beaten by his own family and couldn't get out of bed.
"My husband Qian Lishui and my Qian Liu family have now separated from the Qian family, and this shop will be taken care of by someone else in the future, we are here to take away the things used at home in the backyard today, and our husband and wife will have nothing to do with this Qian family's grocery store in the future." Mrs. Qian's voice was not loud, and in this street full of people but silent, it seemed very empty and lonely.
