320: Borrowing money
Liu Shu has probably never been so favored in her life.
Looking at the cloth, silk, gold and silver jewelry sent by the Liu family, her frowning brows never stretched.
Mother Wu flipped through the gifts, and sneered a little harshly: "This is a request for peace, the Liu family is really powerful, I didn't care about it before, I wish we were starving to death outside, but now I know that I am courteous......"
"Take an inventory of all these things, then pick some good ones from our belongings, and go back and let Uncle Sun send someone to send them."
Liu Shu is reading a very interesting book, but no matter how funny the plot is, it can't make her laugh.
The gifts sent by the Liu family are like life-urging talismans.
Although she has a gentle personality, she is not stupid.
Liu Shu still understands the reason for short-handedness.
Mother Wu pouted and said: "I still want to buy people for this little thing, Qin Langjun doesn't have anything, these things are not worthy of being stored in the Qin family......"
"Okay, don't say this in the future, the Qin family is the Qin family, we are us, and I haven't passed the door, so I can't make people feel that we rely on the Qin family in everything."
A daughter who is suffering from an inferior disease can come all the way from Hangzhou to Bianliang.
Liu Shu has never lacked backbone, but the reality is too harsh on her.
Ever since Qin Wei lived next door, she began to be pointed at.
Later, the Qin family became richer and richer, and Liu Shu also became the 'outer house' in the mouths of the neighbors, and what was even more ugly was that she was a beautiful concubine raised by Qin.
She didn't care before, because there have been rumors over the years, and she has come over like this.
But now that she has been given a decree by the imperial court, Liu Shu is glad to be able to marry Qin Wei, but it is inevitable that she will secretly hurt herself because of her not very glorious identity.
Since ancient times, the appointment of matchmakers has paid attention to the right person.
If it was before, an illegitimate daughter matched a poor scholar from a poor family, this family affair would have been right.
But now Qin Wei is soaring, and she is still just an illegitimate daughter who everyone dislikes.
Even if he has the identity of the command, he still can't get rid of the fingers under the eyes of the world.
"Lady, the concubine of the Liu family sent someone to deliver a message again, saying that she was coming to talk to you about the old days......
Mother Wu had just finished counting the things, and Sun Haomin outside also came, and brought a handwritten letter from Liu Ting.
"Is this the end? Is our lady familiar with her? What kind of heart are they talking about......"
Mother Wu glared at Sun Haomin in disgust, and the latter suddenly felt wronged...... I'm just a messenger.
But after years of Qin Wei's edification, even women can't be reasonable, so they can only laugh dryly and say, "Madam is right, I don't think the Liu family is well-intentioned." ”
The two have been married for more than two years.
However, on weekdays, they are rarely commensurate with husband and wife, after all, the two masters of the family are not yet married, and if they are too public, it will inevitably make the main family feel unbalanced.
Mother Wu's somewhat wrinkled face actually showed a little flush, and she said angrily: "Don't scream, the lady is still listening inside." ”
"Eh, you got ......"
Sun Haomin's old face was as happy as a flower, and he nodded again and again.
It's just that she didn't expect Liu Shu to come out, frowned and looked at the letterhead in Sun Haomin's hand, and said quietly: "If she wants to see me, just let someone send the letter directly here, why send it there......"
Well?
Sun Haomin was slightly stunned, and he didn't understand the meaning of these words for a while.
After all, in the hearts of the Qin family, they have long recognized Liu Shu as the housewife, so it seems that the two families have actually become a family.
On weekdays, whether there is something over there or letters in and out, most of them will be sent to the Qin family, and then Sun Haomin will sort them out.
It's been like this for the first few years, but why does the lady have this question today?
A qualified butler will be the first to understand the owner's thoughts and find out the most appropriate way to deal with it.
On weekdays, he takes care of Qin Wei handy, but Liu Shu is here...... A woman's heart is a needle, and she can't guess it!
Sun Haomin seemed to look at his mother-in-law for help, but Wu's mother glanced at him with disgust and said, "What does the lady mean is that the person from the Liu family deliberately sent the letterhead to the Qin family?" ”
But why is she?
Liu Ting is a woman, and she doesn't know the people of the Qin family, isn't this asking for trouble?
Liu Shu was like a female Zhuge who had already understood everything, and said in a deep tone: "It is fake that she sent a letter with me, and she wants to let that person see that it is true." ”
The man was referring to Qin Wei.
Now everything is explained, it seems that Liu Ting is not a drunkard, not drinking!
Mother Wu was anxious, and couldn't help but scold: "What a shameless slut, she actually wants to take the opportunity to seduce Qin Langjun!" The slave family is going to ......"
As soon as she was halfway through speaking, Mother Wu subconsciously saw Liu Shu's somewhat pale face, and hurriedly covered her mouth and pulled Sun Haomin away.
Liu Shu sat quietly under the tree alone, with a smile with a bit of sadness.
What do you say to seduce......
Men are unmarried, women are unmarried.
People are looking for a good son-in-law, let alone 'robbing'.
And compared with Liu Shu, Liu Ting does have more favorable conditions than her, not only born as a concubine, but also the daughter of the head of the family.
If she is promised to Qin Wei, it will really be a good match.
But what about yourself? Except for the identity of a lady who relied on the Qin family, Liu Shu has no long things, and she has no advantage.
So she knew Liu Ting's purpose, but she still accepted her visit.
and took the initiative to choose the location in the backyard of the Qin family.
At present, only Qin Wei lives here, except for Di Qing, who occasionally comes a few times, this can be said to be the most private and central place of the Qin family.
A pair of sisters with their own hearts gathered here.
The topics of conversation between women are probably family, lovers, and husbands...... In the end, it's my own rouge gouache or something.
The daughters of high-ranking families are not exempt from vulgarity.
The two sat in the hall, chatting without a word, and then only heard Liu Ting's chatter, Liu Shu just sat upright, looking extremely quiet.
After talking for a while, seeing that Liu Shu no longer answered, Liu Ting smiled with some interest: "My sister is almost eighteen this year, right?" My sister just passed her eighteenth birthday a few days ago, and I just wanted the family to be lively, who would have thought that my mother invited the most famous opera troupe in the city to her home, and it was so upsetting that people were upset, and they also called a lot of guests, all of whom were people with heads and faces in Bianliang City, but I didn't like these high-profile styles...... However, the father said that the daughter's family should find a good husband for her when she is old, if the family attaches importance to it, and when those men's families come to propose, the more they dare not underestimate us. ”
Liu Shu's face did not change, but her slender hand gently pinched the skirt.
She knew that Liu Ting was about to get down to business.
I could only smile and say, "Yes!" The daughter's family has been trying to find a good marriage all her life, but it is easy to get a good husband and a good son-in-law, so my sister wishes my sister that she can find a good husband as soon as possible. ”
There are few women in a big family who can get along, let alone the two with a huge disparity between the two of them, and the war of words is already the most gentle scene.
Liu Ting said apologetically: "Hey! Why did you say I suddenly brought it up, I really shouldn't, I shouldn't! ”
Liu Shu still lowered her eyes slightly, with a decent smile on her face, waiting for the other party to make a move.
She is not a weak woman, otherwise she would not have rejected her father's marriage for the sake of Qin Wei.
It's just that in the eyes of outsiders, she looks a little weak because of her shortness all the year round, and everyone subconsciously thinks that this is a woman who is easy to bully.
Seeing that Liu Shu still didn't accept the offer, Liu Ting changed the topic again.
"Shu'er, do you know who bought the ancestral house of the Qin family next door?"
Is this soft not good, is it going to be hard?
Liu Shu's eyes lowered, and she said lightly: "The title deed is written in my father's name, but the title deed of this house is in my hands." ”
"What does it matter to whom the title deed? And although the name of the second uncle is written on it, he is the Liu family, and the money to buy the house was also withdrawn from the house, and it was my father who heard that you had no fixed place to live outside, so the second uncle came out to buy the house, but he happened to buy the ancestral house of the Qin family. ”
This is to make Liu Shu look down on reality, if she is disobedient, the Liu family can take back the house at any time.
In Liu Ting's view, the reason why Qin Wei looked at Liu Shu differently was because of pity, after all, a poignant life experience can indeed win people's sympathy.
Especially Qin Wei, a handsome son, likes to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade.
But this is only one of them, the most important thing is that the Liu family still holds the ancestral house of the Qin family in their hands, I am afraid that Qin Wei knows that the Liu family will not return it easily, so he wants to let the Liu family relax by marrying Liu Shu.
It's just that Liu Ting forgot that according to Qin Wei's methods and temper.
Does he still have to ask for what he wants?
In Qin Wei's words, the Liu family is a fart!
But Liu Shu was silent, because she had thought so in her heart.
The reason why Qin Wei was willing to marry himself was not out of affection, but because of his affection and gratitude for helping him at the beginning.
When one emotion is pulled together with other emotions.
This feeling will make people feel less pure, even if the result is what she wants, but there is still a thorn in her heart that cannot be removed for a long time.
Therefore, the affection must be returned, otherwise it will be pressed.
This is Qin Wei's words, Liu Shu thinks so, so she is waiting for the other party to speak.
Liu Ting smiled and said: "Originally, my father also wanted to return this house to the Qin family, but Sister Shu'er didn't know it, and my younger brother ...... our family."
Liu Shu's eyebrows raised slightly, and then the corners of her mouth smiled.
That's a wry smile.
There are many kinds of human affection, some of which will turn into affection, and some of which will turn into debt......
And this is debt.
Although she doesn't owe anything to the Liu family, she should be Qin Wei's unfinished kindness.
Therefore, if she wants the title deed of this ancestral house, she must accept Liu Ting's conditions.
She's waiting......
Liu Ting glanced at Liu Shu, and then said with a wry smile: "It's not our family, my younger brother was gambling with others outside, and he was cheated by someone, and even Erlangjun, who was involved in Lu Xianggong's family, also lost more than 5,000...... Naturally, the casino didn't dare to open his mouth to bother his sister, but Lu Xianggong was not good at talking......"
Want to borrow money?
But why don't you just talk to the Qin family?
Liu Shu didn't hear the answer she imagined, and even felt a little relieved in her heart.
"More than 5,000?"
Liu Shu is not very conceptual about silver money, because she is not short of money, and the Qin family is not short of money.
But she also knows that these 5,000 are not a few.
If she and Qin Wei opened their mouths like this, Qin Wei would not refuse, and would even send her 10,000 flowers without saying a word.
Liu Shu still has this confidence.
But she didn't want to open her mouth.
"My sister doesn't know, my sister has been riddled with bad diseases all these years, and she doesn't have much money around her......"
The meaning of this was to refuse, but Liu Ting seemed to not understand.
said with a wry smile: "My sister also knows my sister's difficulties, if it weren't for the lack of a way, it would be really difficult for my sister to tell you about this, you see...... Can you bother my sister to go and tell my brother-in-law, it is borrowed by the Liu family, and it will be returned in the future. ”
"Uncle is the head of the Liu family, can't he take out five thousand yuan?"
Liu Ting said: "Yes, yes, even if it is not enough to sell some industries, it can be made, but Lu Xiang's side ......"
Co-authoring is not only about borrowing money, but also about favors!
Liu Shu couldn't help but be stunned.
More than 5,000 ...... This money is nothing to the Qin family.
But Zaifu's affection cannot be measured in money.
Once Qin Wei helps the Liu family get ahead, don't care if Lu Yijian will respond because of this, but this relationship is not so easy to pay off.
In particular, Qin Wei's right to speak in the court has become more and more important, and if there are some differences in political views in the future, Lu Yijian can use this matter as a rhetoric.
Liu Ting made a killer move, and choked up with a frustrated face: "If you are embarrassed, forget it, sister, go back and let my father sell his property." ”
"Wait......"
Liu Shu was really fooled, with a little struggle on her pretty face, and said softly: "In this way, I will ask, but I dare not guarantee whether it will be successful or not." ”
Liu Ting was just about to get up, sat back again, took Liu Shu's hand, and said with a grateful face: "Thank you sister so much, sister will go back to tell my father, you can rest assured that you will take the title deed, and when your sister marries into the Qin family, she will use it as a dowry with you, so as to ensure that the Marquis of Pingyang will not dare to bully her sister in the future......"
Liu Shu sighed slightly in her heart, but did not speak.
She knows what an ancestral home means to a family.
If Qin Wei was still the poor scholar who was broken, it would be fine, but he is now a very popular minister, if he can't even take back the ancestral house, the world will definitely poke his backbone and scold him for being unfilial.
The people of Pingtou all know that their ancestors are bigger than the sky, let alone a nobleman like the Qin family.
With the joy of victory, Liu Ting twisted her slender waist and left the Qin family.
But Liu Shu sat there in a daze with a sad face, and she didn't even notice that Mother Wu walked behind her.
"Lady?"
Liu Shu was awakened, frowning lightly, and her pretty face was slightly sluggish: "What's the matter?" ”
"When the girl of the Liu family left, she said that she would bring someone to get the money tomorrow...... What kind of money did she get when she came to our house? Did you give her money? ”
Mother Wu knows that this lady in her family has a gentle temperament, and sometimes she is always soft-hearted, and there are too many things to scruple about.
In this way, it is inevitable that people will be grasped.
Liu Shu could only nod bitterly: "I just promised her that she would try it, but I didn't promise to give it to her, but she couldn't wait to publicize it...... It seems that she had expected it. ”
