Chapter 55: You're Too Greedy

The third aunt noticed everyone's gaze on her, and hurriedly touched her ears, but it just showed her cover-up, she hurriedly pulled up her sleeves, and saw that the people around her looked strange, so she stared at her, and shouted at the left jade:

"I bought it at my own expense, and I can't wear it?" As soon as she spoke, she slapped herself, and just now she said that she was from a poor family, and she would have the money to wear gold and silver at this time, and at that moment, the two women standing beside her quietly retreated to the door.

Yi Yu sneered, "Your family has a total of ten acres of land, and there is no livelihood next to it, it wasn't my mother who kindly hired you to make the money from selling rock sugar gourds, where did you get the silver to buy these gold and silver jewelry!" ”

After speaking, without waiting for the third aunt to argue, Yi Yu walked a few steps forward, and did not stop until the door, and said aggrievedly to the lively townspeople in front of him, "Everyone only forbade her to do business when I was in the Lu family, saying that we are not kind, but we don't want us to be orphans and widows, the three women came to this town, they are not familiar with the place, and they got up early and ran in the dark for three years to have this situation, my mother thought that she could make everyone make a few dollars, so she hired some women to do business together, and those people hired by my Lu family half a year ago, now which family is not full and warm and has built a new house, When the family broke up a month ago, the family also divided ten taels of silver, but a few people got the benefits, and now they are embarrassed to come to my family's money. ”

Yi Yu already had a white and tender face, and deliberately made that aggrieved look, only looked at it with a pair of big watery eyes, which really made people feel sympathy, these people who watched the excitement before, they thought that the third aunt was reasonable, and when they said this, their eyes were full of suspicion when they looked at the third aunt.

The third aunt's face was pale for a while, and she was about to speak, but she was turned her back to everyone by Yu Yu, and suddenly a fierce look stared at the place, "Third aunt - don't you think that my brothers are not at home, just think that my mother and daughter are easy to bully." You just want to take the opportunity to make some benefits, but you are embarrassed to open your eyes and talk nonsense, what does it mean to hide that you have got money! I tell you clearly, the seeds of the red claws belong to my family, and the kind of forest with red claws is also my Lu family, and my mother sells it, and it has nothing to do with you! ”

"You, you—you have sharp teeth, I won't tell you, you go and call your mother out, I'll talk to her!" The third aunt saw that she couldn't take advantage of Yiyu, so she started the idea of the more straightforward Lu family.

Without waiting for Yi Yu to refuse, he saw Xiao Man opening the curtain, and Lu had already walked out of the house.

Lu Shi waved his hand to Yi Yu and asked her to come over, and Yu Yu swallowed back the words that came to her mouth, and obediently walked to her side and stood up, before she turned her eyes to the third aunt who was still sitting on the ground.

"Lu Erniang!" The third aunt shouted before the Lu family could speak, attracting everyone's attention, "Lu Erniang! Tell me yourself, is it because we helped you sell that rock sugar gourd, you made a fortune! ”

Lu Shi didn't get angry when he heard her so reversing black and white, and asked rhetorically, "Do you dare to tell everyone that I hired you to sell things, and how much money you have earned in half a year?" ”

The third aunt was choked on the spot, she hesitated for a long time, she couldn't speak, Lu smiled and answered for her, "You are embarrassed to say, I will calculate it for you - a profit of less than five taels or more than ten taels a month, which one has not gotten hundreds of taels of silver in most of the year?" ”

Some of the surrounding townspeople who didn't know how to hear this number gasped, where are they hired to work, and they are obviously sending money to them! No wonder the women who worked in the Lu family were vague every time they were asked about their wages, but they had received such benefits!

Lu continued, "If it weren't for my family's craftsmanship in making rock sugar gourds, if it weren't for my family's red claws in the forest, where would you go to make so much money?" Now just because I no longer provide you with this opportunity to make money, you want to blackmail me, and want to share the property that my Lu family's mother and daughter have worked hard to manage, third aunt, you touch your conscience and ask, is it because I am not kind, or you are too greedy. ”

The sentence "Is it because I'm not kind, or are you too greedy" made the hearts of everyone present shake slightly, whether it is those who are jealous when they learn that the Lu family is rich, or those who are unwilling to be dismissed by the Lu family, I am afraid that they will ask themselves at this moment and think clearly.

Since three years ago, Lu's fiery temperament has gradually become gentle, and she no longer cares about being anxious about the fire, Yu Yu knows that she suffered a big loss when she was in the mountain village, and today I saw her say such a few words, although she was not as sharp as herself, but it was more convincing, and she couldn't help but secretly say that Jiang is still old and spicy.

The third aunt was also stunned on the spot by Lu's words, and the Lu family looked around at the people who fell silent for an instant, and sighed, "Alas, everyone is gone, third aunt - are you going to go by yourself, or do you really want to wait for me to call the street patrol to come and arrest you?" ”

Several expressions flashed on the third aunt's face, and finally she was supported by her sister-in-law Qiao, who had been standing in the distance, and left the Lu family.

***

When the crowd dispersed, Yi Yucai instructed Xiao Man to close the courtyard door and then clean the front yard, and he took Lu's arm and entered the hall.

"Mother, you are so amazing, you ran away from her in a few words!" Yi Yu took two cushions and put them on the blanket, and sat down with Lu Shi.

Lu Shi was somewhat affected by what happened just now, and the smile on his face was a little faint, "Where is my power, she has a ghost in her heart, people, who is not greedy, let's sign a contract with Daxing Dried Fruit Shop, isn't it also the five thousand taels of silver in the figure, but some money should be obtained, let's take it with peace of mind, but some money should not be obtained, and it is a loss of heart to reach out." ”

Yi Yu chewed these words carefully in her heart, and waited for Lu Shi to reach out and nudge her, telling her to get something and prepare to go to Liu Xiangxiang's house, then she got up and walked into Lu Shi's bedroom in the east room.

At this time, it was spring, Liu Xiangxiang was newly married in February, and the teacher named Huang He was married, and the family had some small property, and the Lu family spent hundreds of taels of silver to buy a dowry for Liu Xiangxiang, and he was also a beautiful bride in this town. The Lu family had told Liu Xiangxiang before signing the contract with Boss Zhao of Na Daxing, and a few days ago, he had discussed with Yiyu after getting the contracted silver, and took five hundred taels to find a time to send to Liu Xiangxiang.

I was free today, but I encountered such trouble, but fortunately I sent people away, it will be too early, and it is just right to go to Huang's house.

Yi Yu took out a small box from under Lu's bed, and picked it for a while before opening it, and there was a thick stack of expensive tickets neatly placed inside, all of which were the chapters of Chang'an City's Tongtian Cabinet Workshop, she counted five hundred taels out, carefully folded them and put them into the embroidered pouch the day before yesterday, closed the box and stuffed it under the bed, and then walked out of the bedroom.

Lu Jun followed Lu Zhi to Guozi Prison after the New Year, because there was a master who taught boxing in the school, and when he heard Lu Zhi say, he was pestered to go and see, he was already a sixteen or seventeen-year-old young man, but he was still like a child, Lu Shi couldn't do anything about him, and repeatedly confirmed with Lu Zhi that there would be no trouble taking him over, so he agreed to let him go to Chang'an together.

Therefore, the Lu family got the five thousand taels of silver, the two brothers did not know, a few days ago the Lu family and Yi Yu settled everything in the family, today to send money to Liu Xiangxiang, tomorrow the two mother and daughter will go to Chang'an to find them.
