Chapter 114: Spending money to ransom people
readx;
"Sixth master, this is obviously a game, and the purpose is to trap us. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info Let's not talk about the eight people, it is Du Zhigao, he is obviously also counted. This ruined Du Zhigao, and the Du family, who was already on the cusp of the storm, was afraid that the business would be more difficult in the future. Originally, the Du family could provide funds to the sixth master within two or three years, but now I am afraid that it is far away. ”
Zi Yifeng made Prime Minister Wang Cheng's face darker and darker, and the pair of Weng sons-in-law were angry by Zi Yicheng's appearance today. Then he ordered: "This king must investigate this matter thoroughly, and first find out where the iodine wine came from." ”
This iodine wine is the key source, as long as you find these, you can solve this problem. There is only one problem, even if it is found out where the iodine wine came from, the cheating of those people is a foregone conclusion, and they cannot be cleared. Those few people were destined to become outcasts.
The person who makes iodine wine must be a person from Ziyi City, as long as this person can be found, he can frustrate the spirit of Ziyi City. In this matter, there is no reason to let him be in trouble.
"Yes, this is an order for people to investigate!" Wang Chengxiang was depressed when he thought of this. Today, Ziyi City deliberately took him there, or took those people away in front of him.
There was cheating in the capital, and there was a lot of uproar. After Du Yi heard it in the Hou Mansion, he said to Bai Mei: "Okay, I originally planned to make a whole Du Zhigao, but I didn't expect you to even tell Ah Cheng!"
When Bai Mei heard this, she knew that Du Yi was not really praising her. Then he shrunk his neck and said, "Miss, it wasn't the slave who said it on purpose. Isn't there a secret guard by the young lady's side, and what the slave and maid do naturally can't escape their eyes. It's not surprising that the master will know, but he just excludes the opponent a little. Miss, don't you want to help you? Just take this opportunity to cut off some branches, there's nothing wrong with it, right? Otherwise, if you're alone, I'm afraid the effect won't be so good. ”
When Du Yi heard this, he nodded, shook his head again, and said, "Yes and no." It is possible to cut the branches, and the effect is better. It's just that you forgot, the bigger it is, the easier it is to cause Zi Yifeng's resistance, and if he finds someone to find out about me, what should I do?"
Bai Mei shook her head and said, "Miss, don't worry, the people here are all trustworthy." This thing hasn't been circulated from outside, so who knows where to start investigating? In this matter, Zi Yifeng must know that the master did this. Miss, I've made my own decisions, so don't go this way during this time. And don't go to see the little master today, otherwise it will be a big trouble. ”
Du Yi groaned and said, "You did the right thing, he is now the target of Zi Yifeng's people's attention, and it is easy to attract attention wherever he goes." Xiao Shuai only went today, and it is hard to guarantee that Zi Yifeng's people will not think that there is a Taishi involved this time, and if Xiao Shuai is accidentally noticed, it will be troublesome. ”
Bai Mei breathed a sigh of relief, she just knew that Du Yi was enlightened, and she would not blame her for making her own decisions. Fortunately, there was only a moment when she was really afraid that Du Yi would be angry.
She didn't think that this time the incident would make such a big fuss, and she actually pulled out more than a dozen people at once. It seems that the master and the little emperor were ruthless this time and decided to start cleaning up some people.
In the imperial study, the little emperor looked at Zi Yicheng, and his little face was full of worry: "Uncle Huang, is this really a big deal?
"It's okay, that's it, those people must be convicted as soon as possible. But if they could find a substitute and bail him out for some money, it would be great. Our treasury is now empty, and if a family is willing to spend 10,000 taels of silver, our treasury can at least be replenished a little. Uncle Huang, the people I selected are all sons of wealthy merchants, or children of official eunuchs, and they are all from the Zi Yifeng faction. A mere 10,000 taels is still there for those people. ”
Zi Yicheng's abacus crackled, and Du Yi and Xiao Shuai had heard what they said about bail before, so that there was the current play.
First, the person who cut off Zi Yifeng. Second, he helped Du Yi take revenge. Third, it can also enrich the treasury. As for the innocent people, they are all ordinary people, and they were able to be admitted to the lifting of people before, but they still spent money. But it didn't matter, the silver ended up in his pocket, and now he took the opportunity to go out and count it in one fell swoop.
Those unkind gains are just contributed to the treasury. With this silver, before the beginning of spring, he bought all the grain and distributed it to the people of the Purple Moon Country, so that by October this year, when the people were sufficient, he would have fewer scruples.
"Alright, I'll make an order now. By the way, Uncle Huang, how should the will be written?" "Under the teaching of Ziyi City, Taishi and Yushi, the little emperor is now much stronger in his ability to deal with things.
"You can write whatever you want, and you can express the meaning. The general idea is what Uncle Huang told you, plus that this silver is used to buy grain and distribute it to the people in all parts of the Purple Moon Country for the benefit of the people. ”
The little emperor nodded, and then took up the pen and wrote out the holy decree, covered it with the jade seal, and let it be issued.
Let's say that Du Heng's family was so angry that their eyes widened after they knew that Du Zhigao was cheating. Du Heng was originally full of confidence in his son, but at this time, after learning about this, his first reaction was: "Those who are framed must be framed." Who is it, who is it that wants to harm my son?"
Du Ling's whole body fell to the ground, from crying to crying, her hope was shattered. After what she had experienced, Du Heng had already seen her unhappy. Originally, she could still count on her son's chances, but she could still have some hope when the time came. Now it's gone, it's all gone.
Ling Fenfang had a dark face and went back to the Guogong Mansion directly, Du Zhigao got along with her day and night on the eve of the exam, she knew everything about him, and it was impossible to cheat. She must go back and ask her second brother for help, and her second brother will definitely find a way. As long as she helped Du Zhigao this time, when he came out, he knew that he knew about it, and he couldn't give her a leave of absence.
Only Ling Fenfang was disdainful from the bottom of her heart after hearing this. This family doesn't have a good thing except her father. Her mother and sister-in-law are sluts, and his eldest brother is now doing such a humiliating thing.
knew that this would be the case, and during this time, she entered the palace to accompany the Queen Mother. Now it's okay, in addition to this matter, the people who originally came to propose marriage have all run away, which is really humiliating.
After Hongying saw the situation in this house, she secretly looked at Bigui, and couldn't help but smile. What is this, this is just the beginning.
"Hongying, clean up, let's go into the palace!" Du Zilin didn't want to stay in this house anymore, as long as she thought of being pointed at as soon as she went out, she felt embarrassed and panicked.
"Miss, isn't it good to leave now? Besides, if we enter the palace now, what will others say, will the Queen Mother allow it?"
Hongying doesn't want to go, she wants to stay in this house and watch a good show. Besides, the palace is something she Du Zilin can go to if she wants to? The palace is not her home, and she is a merchant's daughter, and she really treats herself as a green onion.
"Less nonsense, let you pack up and leave, what do you say so much? Besides, that palace, why can't I go? The queen mother likes me so much, but as she said, as long as I like it, I can enter the palace at any time. Du Zilin relied on this sentence to dare to be so arrogant.
At this moment, the horse steward who had been sent out returned, followed by Du Yi and Liu Rushi. Du Yi helped Liu Ruis and entered the hall of Du Mansion, and when they saw this picture, the two glanced at each other and saw a smile in each other's eyes.
"Uncle, what the hell is going on, why is it so good, if you say cheating, you cheat? The little aunt can't live in peace at home, so she has to come over to see it to feel at ease. ”
"Master, what the hell is going on with this kid Zhigao, he is very talented on weekdays, and he definitely won't do such a thing, is there a misunderstanding?
Originally, Du Heng was still very moved, but after hearing this, his face sank: "That is the property of my Du Mansion, how can I harm my son? Now, hey, if he had listened to me, he wouldn't have done it now. ”
Du Heng sighed, he knew that he would take the paper away at that time. He regrets it now, and his intestines are so green with regret. I shouldn't have listened to my son, because I was afraid that there would not be enough paper in it to write.
"Uncle, when I came over with my little aunt, I heard that the emperor had posted an imperial list and issued an edict to the world. He said that before this was found, if he was willing to pay 10,000 taels of silver for bail, he could bring the person back and not use it to suffer inside. This 10,000 taels of silver should be used to buy grain for the people of the Purple Moon Country, and this matter will not be investigated for the time being. It's just that the previous fame was all canceled and demoted to civilians. ”
Du Heng shook his head when he heard this, and was demoted to a commoner? If he didn't spend money to ransom people, then Du Zhigao didn't know how long he would be imprisoned. He currently has a son, Liu Ruyi's belly, and he doesn't know whether it is a man or a woman, so he can only redeem his son first.
But it's only been the beginning of the year, and he's spent almost all the money he should spend. He borrowed more than a dozen or two hundred thousand taels of silver, and pinned his hopes on a few years. Those land deeds, those that can be mortgaged, are mortgaged. Now there are only a few thousand taels left on his body, where will the ten thousand taels go?
"Ling'er, how much silver do you have there? I'm almost all the money I should spend, and now I have less than five thousand taels left. As for Liu Rus, he hasn't given a hundred taels a month at most, how much can he have in the past few years.
When Du Lingshi heard this, he stood up tremblingly with the help of Bigui. When he heard this, he cried again: "There are only a thousand taels of silver." Yi Yi took 1,600 taels at that time, Fen Fang took 3,500 taels, Zilin took 1,000 taels a year ago, and the child also spent 1,000 taels to settle. ”
Doe didn't expect it to be like this, their money was gone so quickly. She can understand this Du Heng's matter. It's just that this Du Ling's clan is only a thousand taels, which is incredible.
"That adds up to only six thousand taels, and there are still four thousand taels, where can I raise it?
Ling Fenfang took three thousand five hundred taels from Du Ling's family, and when she got married, she also married a lot of silver. The district asked her to give 5,000 taels, there should still be some, right?
In this way, the couple can still leave a thousand taels of silver, otherwise they will really be penniless. But what did Du Zilin do with so much silver?
"Zilin, you have so much silver every month, what do you want so much silver for, hurry up and take it out, now the family urgently needs silver. ”
Du Heng used to look at Du Zilin and was pleasing to the eye, but now the more she looks at it, the more she feels that she is more ignorant, what does she want so much silver for a girl's family?
When Du Zilin heard this, she was unhappy: "You want to redeem your eldest brother, what do you want me to do." Wherever I have money, it has been spent. ”
Du Lingshi looked at Du Zilin in disbelief, it has only been a little more than a month, and it is gone? Before, she had private money, which added up to a small two thousand taels of silver, how could she say that it was gone?
"Where did you go with so much silver, how could it be gone?"
This daughter, is she too doting, so she can't tell how to use this silver. There is so much silver, how can you say that if you don't have it, it's gone?
Didn't she go anywhere except to the palace? Doesn't she have a reward every time she goes to the palace, why do she have to spend money?
Could it be that those things were not rewarded by the queen mother in the palace at all, but she bought them with her own money? If she bought them with silver, in terms of the texture of those things, they were not worth much silver at all, and they wouldn't be cheated, right?
If Du Zilin knew what her mother was thinking, she was afraid that she would have the heart to vomit blood. Those things, she has been precious for a long time, obviously they were given by the Queen Mother, how could she spend money to buy them herself.
"Doesn't my daughter often enter the palace? If you enter the palace, don't you need to be dotted? Those fathers-in-law and mothers, which one doesn't need a silver reward? Especially the people around the Queen Mother, if I give some silver, they can still say more good things for me, why is it not worth it. ”
Du Lingshi and Du Heng were completely speechless at this time, and the meaning in Du Zilin's words was good. It's just that people are also a minion, how much silver can she give if you give a reward?
Needless to say, Hongying saw Du Heng and Du Ling's faces, and whispered: "Miss said that she is a child of the Du family, and some of them are silver, so she must make more shots than ordinary people, so every time she gives fifty taels and one hundred taels." ”
Du Heng really laughed angrily this time, he gave it every time, and one gave it was fifty two hundred taels, which was really arrogant and generous. It's only been a little over a month.
It's not that you enter the palace every day, and you spend so much silver. If she is allowed to continue to go, wouldn't she give the entire Du Mansion to those palace maids and eunuchs?
"From today onwards, you are not allowed to enter the palace. You have been there so much, what benefits have you got? Are you just those jewels that add up to less than 300 taels? You said that the Queen Mother likes you, and what you give you is just that?"
When Du Zilin heard this, she quit, why did she say that her things were not good? Besides, it was given by the Queen Mother herself, so why didn't she get any benefits? Now that she is liked by the Queen Mother, who doesn't know? Aren't the people who come to the family to propose marriage all for this?
"Dad, you're wrong. Why can't I go, I can get a different look from the Queen Mother, that is the blessing I cultivated in my previous life. ”
When Du Heng saw such an uneducated woman, he trembled his hands with anger, pointed at Du Zilin and said: "I have already asked you to pay attention to it, do you really think that the Queen Mother likes you? On the day of the palace banquet, you were brought by the sixth prince, you were already a thorn in her side, and you thought you were enjoying yourself." Originally, I didn't want you to follow in, you had to do it yourself. What is the relationship between the Queen Mother and the Sixth Prince, you go to the capital to find out. From now on, let me stay in the house well, there will not be much anywhere. Otherwise, I'll send you back to Fengcheng right away. ”
After Du Zilin heard her father's words, she took a step back, no, she didn't believe it. But her father is doing things for the sixth prince, how can he favor her? Is she really the thorn in the side of the queen mother? The queen mother is not very good to her.
What's wrong, it's impossible? It's just that his father really did things for the six princes, and most of the silver in their Du Mansion was given to the six princes.
Du Yi didn't expect Du Heng to lose his breath so quickly, too, his son has already had an accident, and if his daughter continues like this, it will only bring him greater disasters.
"Hongying, take your young lady down. From today onwards, stay in my room and don't take a step out of the room. "Du Heng was really ruthless this time.
Hong Ying left happily, and Du Heng's matter has not been resolved. However, thinking that Du Yi is in the Hou Mansion, there should be a little silver. At the beginning, he also gave her 1,600 taels of silver, even if she used 600 taels, then the remaining 1,000 taels must be had.
"Yiyi, you see, it's not easy for us now, can we borrow a little silver from my uncle, go back and wait for my uncle to recover, how about doubling back to you?"
Du Yi smiled in his heart, and doubled to repay her? Where is the amount of silver that Du Mansion once had, and so much silver before her father's death, can those things be doubled? A Nuoda Du Mansion can't even take out 10,000 taels of silver, and he still has to borrow it from a weak woman, and it's really a shame that he Du Heng dared to speak.
"Uncle, you also know that when I was in Fengcheng, I spent a few hundred taels of silver. After returning to Liujia Town from Fengcheng, during that time, everyone was donating to the victims in other places, and I also donated 500 taels. From Liujiazhen to the capital, because of the wrong way, it was delayed for a long time, it took a month, and it also cost hundreds of taels, and now there is not much left. Xiaoshuai, I sent it to the Taishi's Mansion to enlighten again, which costs more, and now I can lend it to my uncle, I'm afraid it's only fifty taels. ”
When Du Heng heard what Du Yi said, he almost spurted blood. What does he want fifty taels for, that's a difference of five thousand taels.
"In that case, then Yiyi, you can keep it. Ling'er, you go and see where Fragrance went, where she should be able to get some silver. ”
When Du Heng calculated Ling Fenfang like this, Ling Qixuan also knew the news, so he said to Ling Fenfang: "As long as it can be solved by spending money, it is not a big problem. Although Du Zhigao can't be an official, it's okay. He has at least one Nuoda Du Mansion, you go back and wait patiently first. If Du Heng asked you for silver, he would shirk it and say that he came out, found someone, dredged up the relationship, and let Du Zhigao not suffer in prison, and he had spent almost everything. Don't worry, I've already said hello over there, and it'll be fine. If you are in that house now, you must keep an eye on yourself, and you must not give money to people at will. Our Guogong Mansion is like this now, and all we can rely on is ourselves. It's impossible for Du Heng to not be able to get out 10,000 taels, do you know?"
"Well, I know, then I'll go back now, second brother, you should take care of yourself. By the way, don't take it to heart about the retreat, you are destined to be inseparable after all, and there will be better women in the future. ”
After Ling Fenfang said this, she returned to the Du Mansion, and as soon as Du Ling's mouth opened, she asked her for silver.
"Mother, I really don't have any money now. I learned about this early in the morning, so I went out with the silver, and it took thousands of taels of silver to dredge up the relationship and let Brother Du not suffer inside. Mother, can't we even get out of this silver in Dufu? It's just that I really spent so much silver, and now I can give at most two hundred taels. ”
After Du Heng and Du Lingshi heard this, their faces turned black again. Du Lingshi gritted his teeth and said, "Master, I'll go to the countryside to see my aunt, we must raise all this silver." Two days late shouldn't be a big deal, but if outsiders know that my Du Mansion can't even take out 10,000 taels now, what will I think?"
Liu Ru watched the play with Du Yi almost as well, so he got up, held his stomach and said, "Master, since I can't help here, let's go back with Yi Yi first." ”
"Go back, take care of your little aunt on Yiyi Road!"
Du Heng never thought of borrowing money from Liu Ru, and he didn't dare. Liu Ru is now in his eyes, but the people of Ziyi City, if they are known by i Ziyi City, then they can pay it back?
Let's say that Du Ling's family traveled all the way to the countryside and came to a relatively good house, and nodded with satisfaction. The Hou Mansion has never treated her aunt badly, and over the years, her aunt should still have a few thousand taels in savings, right?
"Diehua, where is my aunt?" As soon as I entered the courtyard, I saw that Diehua didn't know who she was arguing with, and was scolding and scolding her.
After Diehua saw that it was Du Ling's, she pulled away a smile: "Madame is in the Buddhist hall, I'll take Miss there." Madame has been sullen when she came here, and if she can see Miss, she is afraid that she will be very happy. ”
When Du Lingshi heard this, she didn't think so, if her aunt knew the purpose of her coming, she didn't know what would happen. In any case, you must receive the money today.
"During this time, there were many things at home, and I didn't come over. Is my aunt doing well?The people in the Hou Mansion are still dedicated to my aunt?"
"What's good, it's just that after sending the things that should be eaten and used, I don't care about it, just like a living person. Madame only made a move before, but she didn't expect it to become what it is now. She wanted to go back, but she couldn't. By the way, Madame has given you time to bring Miss Doe here to accompany her. She said that when people get old, they will inevitably be a little lonely. Miss Dooy, doesn't she have a child, and it is okay to let the child come to this yard and add some laughter to the child. ”
When Du Lingshi heard this, she smiled, she is out of the Hou Mansion now, where can she call Du Yi. She hadn't screamed before, and now she can't.
It would be nice if Doe didn't calculate her in reverse. Suddenly, she remembered that there was no master by Du Yi's side? Could it be that Du Yi did what happened that time? Otherwise, why didn't Du Yi go?
But then I thought about it, Du Yi didn't know their plan, how could he do it. What the hell is going on? If Doe really did it, then she'd be terrible.
No, no matter what, you can't move Doi now. According to the previous plan, if she didn't marry, she would give a yard and they would take care of Doo.
If you want to get married, they will choose who you want to marry, and everything will be fine. If it's boring to talk about yourself at this time, then it's really over.
When he saw Mrs. Qiuyue in the Buddhist hall, Du Lingshi walked over, knelt beside her, and bowed reverently towards the statue of Guanyin with his hands folded.
After he was done, he said to Mrs. Qiuyue, "Auntie!"
"Wait!" Lady Qiuyue had already heard footsteps before Du Ling entered.
This daughter of hers, she still knows it very well. There must be something, otherwise it wouldn't have come. Today is here, and I don't know what it is.
Because he wanted to borrow money, Du Lingshi waited quietly aside. Now only her aunt can lend her some silver, otherwise she will really have to pawn something to be able to raise all the money.
It's not a matter of worrying, I'm afraid that it's too late, and those who cooperate in the mall will think that Du Fu is not good, and they will have a difference. People must be redeemed today, even if it is late, at most it will be said that the person is not there or something else.
After Mrs. Qiuyue recited the Heart Sutra, she came to the living room with the help of Du Ling's family.
"Anyway, what's the matter with coming here today? Don't say you miss me, come and see. You were born by me, and I know very well those little ninety-nines in your belly. ”
After Mrs. Qiuyue took a sip of tea, she looked at her daughter and spoke not very politely.
"Mother, I'm like if you can lend me five thousand taels, it's urgent. Du Lingshi didn't plan to delay the time, she borrowed it early, and she went back early.
Hearing that she wanted so much silver, Mrs. Qiuyue was surprised, and the Du Mansion should not be able to take out the five thousand taels of this meagre.
"Tell me exactly what's going on. ”
Du Ling's told Du Zhigao about cheating, how he used the silver, and why there was no silver at home.
After Mrs. Qiuyue heard Du Zilin's matter, she snorted coldly: "You daughter, the older you are, the more brainless you are. Although I have never entered the palace, I also know that the amount of silver I will reward there will not exceed fifty taels. She's generous, doesn't everyone give a tip? She's really not an ordinary fool, and she goes to give a tip. In my opinion, she is afraid that she has no money, and wants to get some money for herself to spend, so he will give her those useless and worthless things. All that money went into her own purse. I've heard before, but now the treasury is tight, and the amount of money that can be distributed to the palaces is limited. Those nobles need someone to do things for themselves, or they have to spend money, so they have to find a way. ”
Du Lingshi believed in his mother's words. When he heard her analysis, he also nodded and said yes again and again. Zilin's silver was indeed too spent, almost a month, but it cost a small two thousand taels, so after a year, would it be twenty thousand taels of silver?
She has worked hard to save for so long over the years, and it is only less than 10,000 taels, this girl is really not very sensible. The one hundred taels of silver is enough for ordinary people to eat and drink for many years.
"Auntie, now that things are like this, what do you think? I can't pawn things, and I can't wait until tomorrow. If I hadn't given birth to that monster that time, our Du Mansion wouldn't have lost so much. Over the years, the sixth master has taken a lot, and even the Guogong Mansion has reached out to us. And most of the money that was earned went into them. In addition, the drought took so much grain at a high price, and bought it with the money that the shop had mortgaged. Then it was confiscated again, and the silver used now is still mortgaged by the shop. We must do a good job this year, otherwise, won't the property of Du Mansion be defeated in our hands? Whether you can turn it over or not can only look at this year. ”
"What if you can't get it over this year? If you can't, you can change all the title deeds to Doy's name. No, you said that you took it all as collateral, then you asked the steward to go to Du Yi and say that it was her property, and let her figure it out by herself. If she loses, it's her own business. If it happens, the title deed is still in your name, so don't worry!"
Du Ling was not as optimistic as her aunt thought, and Du Yi was not easy to deal with. If you want to throw the mess at Doy, I'm afraid it's impossible. I heard that the shops in Fengcheng were rented to others, saying that she couldn't run them herself, so she only collected rent.
"Auntie, don't think about it in a hurry, at least you have to wait until the New Year. Now the question is what to do with the five thousand taels!" Du Ling's heart was anxious, the day was short, and the darkness was fast. Taking advantage of the night to hurry, she has a shadow in her heart.
"You wait!" said Lady Akizuki, and went into the house. She has lived most of her life, and she has indeed accumulated a lot of silver. Some of them were honored by Du Ling's family in the past, and some were saved when she was young.
She is such a daughter, and it is impossible to watch her trouble. In the future, she will not be able to take away the silver when she dies, so she can only leave it to this daughter who was born to collect debts.
When Mrs. Qiuyue came out, she held a stack of silver tickets in her hand and handed them to Du Ling's hand: "There are eight thousand taels of silver here, you can count them." This is my aunt, I have been saving most of my life here, after you go back, keep some on yourself, and it is not okay for a man to have no silver on him. As for Du Zilin and Ling Fenfang, don't worry about it, it is impossible for that Ling Fenfang to have no silver on her body, if you deceive her, you will definitely be able to get the silver. ”
Seeing so many silver tickets, Du Ling's eyes were a little red, and he looked at Mrs. Qiuyue, and the tip of his nose was sour: "Auntie......"
"Okay, what a big man, put away your tears, take these and go back to get Zhigao out. And if he's in a bad mood, let him stay with me for two days. A manly man, if you can't enter the official career, there is no hindrance. At least there is one Du Mansion, as long as you manage it well and mix a mouthful of rice, there should still be it. ”
Du Lingshi held the stack of silver tickets, and his heart was a little heavy. Most of her aunt's life has been handed over to her, and she will have to be doubly good to her aunt in the future.
"Yes, then Ling'er will go back first. It's not easy to walk at night, so while it's still dawn, let's go first!"
Du Ling's words made Mrs. Qiuyue couldn't help but think back to that night, trembled all over, and said, "Let's go, be careful on the road!"
After everyone left, Diehua said: "Madam, how can you give so much silver, so that you don't have much on you, this is the silver you support for the elderly." ”
"Everyone else is blessed to give birth to daughters, but this daughter of mine was born to collect debts. She is the only one in this life, who will she not give it to? This thing is not brought in life, not taken away in death, and it is not of much use to keep it. It's worth it to be able to do her now. ”
Over the years, Ling Sheng has given her the best food and clothing, and she has also saved a lot, except for the eight thousand taels, she also left some on her, and she still doesn't have to worry about pension.
When Du Lingshi was halfway there, the sky had already begun to darken. Du Lingshi, who came out alone, sat in the carriage curtain, trembling all over, and urged the coachman to hurry up.
Seeing that she was at the city gate, the gate was closed, which made her a little dumbfounded. If he can't get in, then what can he do? Du Heng knew that he had gone to the countryside and waited left and right, but he didn't wait for anyone, so he remembered that maybe the city gate was closed and he couldn't get in.
Du Ling's family waited outside the city for nearly an hour before waiting for Du Heng.
"Quick, master over there, let's go over!" The moment the city gate opened, Du Ling's sharp eyes saw Du Heng under the candlelight.
Du Heng saw that Du Ling's was a little excited, and originally wanted to say something, but when he turned his head to look around, he got into Du Ling's carriage, returned to the city, and asked in a low voice, "But you borrowed it?"
Du Ling took out the silver and said, "Master, the concubine has spent a lot of thought on today's affairs. You can't hold a grudge against that incident a year ago and want to divorce me. If you still want to divorce me, then why should I take out the money that my aunt has saved for most of her life. ”
Du Heng didn't expect Du Ling's to bargain at this time, a little annoyed in his heart, but also a little grateful. Indeed, if it were not for this wife today, he would not have even had the money to redeem his son.
"Okay, I'll make a note for you when I go back, I will never divorce my wife in this life, will I succeed? Tell me how much money I borrowed!"
Du Lingshi, who got a satisfactory answer, nodded, took out the silver ticket, and said, "Eight thousand taels." Sir, have you brought the silver ticket? If so, let's go and redeem it now. ”
"Bring it, let's go! Fortunately, you asked for more, otherwise when you pay this silver, there will really be no money at home." Ling'er, thank you for your hard work!"
Du Lingshi counted five thousand taels and handed it to him: "Here are five thousand taels of silver, you take it first." It adds up to 10,000 taels. The remaining three thousand, let me do this first, don't get confused. When I get back, I'll give you two thousand, and I'll have one thousand taels left for my family. ”
Du Heng nodded, it is indeed not suitable to count these things in this carriage now.
In the Hou Mansion, Du Yi heard the news that the two of them had scraped together the money and lost Du Zhigao back, so he just smiled softly, and this was the beginning, which and which. She has to take back the shops that were mortgaged out. Du Heng wouldn't think that he was like this, and that he was fine, right?
