Chapter 105: I picked up a daughter-in-law because of a good heart
If you want to save people, you have to pay off the gambling debts first, otherwise the people in the gambling house will definitely not do it, and the thought of paying back dozens of taels of silver for the gambling ghost father, Gu Shuzhen really doesn't want to care about him, but if he doesn't pay back the money, he is afraid that those people will discount the legs of the two elder brothers.
"We can't go directly to the people in the gambling house for this matter, tomorrow I will change into the clothes of the seventh brother and follow my father to talk to Steward Lin first, to see if he is familiar with the people in the gambling house, if not, find the shopkeeper of Chunfeng Lou, and then find the two uncles to write the contract in person to repay the money."
Mother, you ask Erniang tomorrow if they have sold their residence in Cuiping Village, and borrowed it for their uncle to live in temporarily, since Mother is worried about the two uncles, we have to take care of this matter, but there is a grandfather's leg...... "Heal his leg and let him continue to gamble, Ji Nuan resolutely refuses to do this."
"Your grandfather's leg doesn't need to be treated, it's good to spread it on the kang, at least you can't go to the gambling house." Gu Shuzhen also said this in no other way.
Ji Nuan nodded, she also meant this, gambling addiction is difficult to quit, grandma's family is poor like that, grandpa still goes to gamble, it can be seen that he has lost his rationality, there is no value to save, this kind of person is not a bad thing to be paralyzed on the kang.
When Ji Ruinian's father and daughter went out, Gu Shuzhen repeatedly told the two of them that if the gambling debts ended up exceeding twenty taels, don't pay them back, and let those people take the gambling ghost father away.
"Mother, the ultimate goal of the people in the gambling house is to ask for silver, what do people want a gambler to go back to, my father and I will look at this matter, but let's talk about the ugly things in front, grandpa will definitely not be able to gamble or fight our family's idea, even if you are willing, I will not agree." There are some things that still have to be said in front, Ji Nuan doesn't want to have too much to do with gamblers, and neither can relatives.
"Don't worry, I promise that this time, I will never use my family's money to help them in the future." Gu Shuzhen almost cursed and swore an oath.
"Don't get me wrong, if grandpa is a down-to-earth and hard-working person, we must help, you can contribute money and effort, a person who has gambled for decades, the poor family is almost unable to eat, and the person who is worried about going to the gambling house says something unpleasant, it is hopeless. To be honest, I think it's good that he was beaten by someone, so everyone is at ease, let's not let grandpa see the money, the eldest uncle and second uncle should be helped. ”
"Your eldest uncle Mu Ne, the second uncle has a bit of skills in building walls and kangs, in the early years, he didn't finish the work here, and your grandfather had already taken the money away behind his back. Later, when he was angry, he stopped doing it, and he and your uncle were at home to play with some land, and the family could not starve to death, and they did not dare to save silver. When I was working outside, if it weren't for your father's help, the two of them would have been crippled because of my father. Thinking of the past, Gu Shuzhen couldn't help but feel sorry for her two elder brothers, and she only complained about the gambling ghost father, and she had no feelings.
Ji Ruinian saw that the atmosphere was too heavy, and teased his daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law: "I just thought that the brothers were quite pitiful at that time, but I didn't expect to pick up a daughter-in-law because of a moment of kindness." ”
Several children snickered on the side, Gu Shuzhen glanced at her husband, in fact, she was quite content, although she had lived more than ten years of grievances in the old house, her husband knew cold and hot with her wholeheartedly, and gave birth to eight sensible children.
"Dad, we can't leave yet, if you still have something to whisper to your mother, why don't we enter the county seat tomorrow?" Ji Nuan covered her mouth and smiled.
This kid dared to ridicule, Ji Ruinian set a car to settle his daughter on the mat, and the two of them went straight to Lin's house when they entered the city, and the porter quickly found Steward Lin.
"You're so good at home, I'm really afraid that you will go out, can you borrow a step to talk?" Ji Nuan had a faint smile on her face.
Steward Lin had already been instructed by Nangong Linyou to take good care of Ji Nuan, and every favor he helped would be recorded. Several people stood outside the door of the Lin Mansion and spoke, and Steward Lin fell into deep thought when he heard about Yuehao Casino.
"We also know that the Lin Mansion has never dealt with these messy places, don't be embarrassed, let's ask others again." Seeing Steward Lin's expression, Ji Nuan thought it was useless to look for him in this matter.
"I won't tell you that this Yuehao casino was opened by my second master, but the second master and our master ...... Leave this to me, and promise to erase your grandfather's debt. ”
"If my grandfather really owes people money, within the range we can afford, I can help pay it back, I just hope to erase the money that is profitable, my grandfather's leg is now broken, we don't want to pursue this matter, I hope it can end here."
The gambling house has made more money with a bad conscience, and it is precisely because it is not a serious business that the master of Steward Lin persuaded his younger brother to change careers, and the brothers had a disagreement, but Steward Lin believed that if he opened his mouth, the second master and the gambling house would still give some face.
Ji Ruinian's father and daughter thanked him together, and after Steward Lin promised to finish here, let Ji Ruinian come over with the Gu family and the IOU, and he would try his best to erase all the debts that could be erased.
"Steward Lin, thank you so much."
"The young master of Nangong told me to take care of you, and I also hope that when I see the young master of Nangong again, the girl will help me say a few kind words, I look forward to returning to the capital in my lifetime."
"The next time I see Young Master Nangong, I will definitely help Steward Lin mention this matter."
I just don't know if the young master of the Nangong family can survive this summer, Steward Lin prays that Nangong Linyou's health is getting better, and he will always keep Ji Nuan's friend in his heart; I also hope that I have that good luck and borrow the light of the two of them to go to the Lin family in the capital on an errand.
Two days later, Steward Lin asked the coachman who went to Ji's house to pick up tofu to send a message that he could bring the Gu family to the county seat to find him, remember to bring an IOU.
Gu Shuzhen cried with joy, the legs of the two brothers were finally saved, and the couple drove the ox cart to take Ji Lianfu to Xinzhuang to find his father and mother, and first sent people to live in Ji Ruifeng's old house in Cuiping Village, and tomorrow called the two brothers to the county seat to destroy the IOU.
A few people left in the morning, and they didn't get home until it was dark, Ji Nuan observed his father's expression, his mother's eyes were red and swollen, and it was obvious that she had cried, and she couldn't see the joy and anger on her father's face, so she could only find out the news from the second brother.
After Ji Lianfu returned to the house, Ji Nuan knocked on his door, and it was Ji Lianshou who opened the door, and he was surprised when he saw his sister standing outside the door, this was the first time his sister came to them.
"Fourth brother, can I go in and sit?"
Of course you can, Ji Lianshou led his sister into the house, Ji Lianlu specially wiped the edge of the kang, only Ji Lianfu looked at his sister with a smile, this girl must have come to inquire about her grandmother's family, Ji Lianfu didn't expose her, bowed her head and pretended to do things.
chatted with the third brother and the fourth brother for a while, Ji Nuan really didn't know what to say, and was about to have a showdown, the door was pushed open, Ji Lianqiu then entered the door, Ji Nuan showed two rows of little white teeth, the best partner came, see how long the second brother can last.
