Chapter 76: My lady is gentle and virtuous

"What do you mean?"

Hearing Su Yuanqing's words, Sheng Hongbo was immediately stunned, and subconsciously asked.

"Isn't it five thousand taels?"

How much rent can I have for a few shops and a few plots of land? Five thousand taels is already a lot!

At this moment, Sheng Hongbo didn't realize at all how many silver tickets he was about to lose.

Su Yuanqing nodded Sheng Keqing with his eyes, and reminded lightly: "Uncle, it's better for you to ask them this question, after all, the rent over the years has been collected by them, and they know better than anyone else!" ”

The words have been said to this point, and Sheng Hongbo immediately understood the deep meaning.

Immediately, his face sank, and he looked at Liu Rumei's mother and daughter with deep eyes.

The tone was slightly cold, "You guys make it clear, how much rent has been charged!" ”

At this time, Liu Rumei and Sheng Keqing knew that the matter could not be hidden, and after glancing at each other, Sheng Keqing explained stubbornly: "Father, about 50,000 taels of silver." ”

"What?!"

Sheng Hongbo got up angrily, and his whole body was so angry that his lungs were about to explode.

Pointing at Sheng Keqing, he said tremblingly, "Fifty thousand taels!" ”

"Doesn't that mean that plus the 50,000 taels just now, there are 100,000 taels in total!"

As soon as the words fell, Sheng Luoan added with a smile: "Father, you miscalculated, it's one hundred and seven thousand eight hundred taels." ”

Sheng Hongbo: "......"

Sheng Hongbo's face twitched, and his face became even more gloomy.

But because of the presence of so many people, it was not easy for him to give Sheng Luoan a look.

can only vent his anger on Liu Rumei and Sheng Keqing.

roared angrily: "Over the years, how many silver taels have you pit for your mother and daughter on my back? If I hadn't confronted the Su family face to face today, I'm afraid I wouldn't have known that you actually took so much money from the Sheng family! ”

As soon as the words fell, Sheng Luoan said with a smile: "Father, you are wrong again, you took so much money from me behind your back, after all, those shops and land deeds were all sent by my grandfather and grandmother for my daughter's personal use." ”

Sheng Hongbo: "......"

Sheng Hongbo was speechless again, and his face was completely pale.

The three brothers Su Yuanqing held back their smiles and pretended to be serious.

"Luoan, this money ......"

At this time, Sheng Hongbo's face was already a little unbearable.

If you really want him to get out of these 100,000 taels, how much pain he will have, it is simply a piece of meat forcibly torn off from his body!

Sheng Luoan immediately saw through Sheng Hongbo's careful thoughts and directly interrupted him.

"Of course, my father has to pay me back a lot of money, after all, my father made it very clear just now that he wants to give this money for his aunt and eldest sister, and the gentleman will not be able to repay the debt, right?"

"I ...... Of course I won't be on the bill! ”

Sheng Hongbo took a deep breath, and after saying these words, he glared at Sheng Keqing and Liu Rumei quietly.

"In that case, how does my father give me this money? Is it given now, or is it given slowly in previous installments? Sheng Luoan took the opportunity to ask.

Anyway, the 100,000 taels of silver tickets must be held in your hands first.

Otherwise, the night is long and the dream is many!

was questioned by Sheng Luoan again and again, Sheng Hongbo's face was blue for a while and white for a while.

If it weren't for Su Yuanqing and the others present, he was afraid that he would have flipped the table on the spot and stormed away.

After calming down, Sheng Hongbo asked tentatively: "One hundred thousand taels of silver tickets, I can't get it together for a while, why don't you give you a part of it according to the installment you said, and then give you the rest when it is made up later?" ”

"Of course you can, but in order to prevent my father from cheating, I still think it is necessary for my father to write an IOU, which can be regarded as a guarantee for his daughter."

"Nonsense! What kind of IOU is written by your own family, how bad it is to pass it out! Sheng Hongbo's eyelids jumped.

"Father, what you said is wrong, as the saying goes, the water spilled by the daughter who marries out, I have already married, and I am not a member of the Sheng family. My brother still has to settle accounts, so it's better for my father to write an IOU. ”

"You...... Is it to force your old father to death? Sheng Hongbo roared angrily.

Seeing Sheng Hongbo's extremely angry appearance, Sheng Luoan shrugged his shoulders innocently.

"Father, I don't like to hear what you say, these things are collected by the eldest sister for me, and the rent is also secretly collected by her behind my back, since the things are lost, then the eldest sister should return them, but since my father has taken over this responsibility, it can only be said that the eldest sister is forcing you, and it has nothing to do with me!"

"Sheng Luoan, you are too blind!"

"Do you think that if you marry the Hou Mansion highly, you can be powerful and blessed in the Sheng family?"

"Let me tell you, if there is no Sheng family to pave the way, do you think you can be the marquise of Gong Moye?"

"Sheng Luoan, don't forget your roots!"

Sheng Hongbo, word by word, accused Sheng Luoan of being ignorant.

But he didn't think that the matter had come to this point, and Sheng Keqing was to blame.

It's just that he took the money himself.

"Father, you said that people should not forget their roots, but you should not forget, if it were not for the paving of your mother and the Su family, you would not be where you are today. Do you remember your mother and the Su family? It says that people should not forget their roots, but how do you do it? In the years since your mother's death, have you visited the Su family? ”

The more Sheng Luoan spoke, the more angry he became, and his words were full of contempt for Sheng Hongbo.

"Sheng Luoan, you, you, you are presumptuous! Don't forget, I'm your father! ”

Sheng Hongbo's heart beat faster with anger, and he couldn't wait to slap Sheng Luoan on the spot.

If it had been before, he would have slapped him out, I'm afraid he would have pulled it out.

It's just that now because of the presence of the Su family, he can only endure this breath alive.

"If you are my father, can you not pay your debts?" Sheng Luoan rolled his eyes.

These words made Sheng Hongbo even more angry.

As soon as he was about to speak, Liu Rumei immediately stood up and stroked his chest.

"Master, don't be angry, the second lady is not sensible, you don't want to be like her."

At this time, Sheng Keqing stood up and took the opportunity to say: "Yes, father, my sister is still young and ignorant, and my father should not be like her." ”

In and out of the words, she looks the most sensible.

Sheng Luoan couldn't listen to it anymore, and her eyes rolled and her eyelids were sour.

At this moment, a clear voice suddenly came from outside the door.

"Who said my lady is ignorant? My lady is gentle, virtuous, and empathetic, why is she not sensible? ”

Hearing this voice, everyone present turned around and looked out the door!
