Chapter 237: Dark Shadow
Seeing the gold, silver and jade in the big box, the Jiang family was happy and angry.
Happily, her daughter's dowry was found, and her daughter's marriage was not delayed.
The angry couple was the couple of thieves in the second room, shameless and greedy, who stole everything from their niece.
and her mother-in-law's favoritism also made her feel cold.
Knowing that her youngest son and his wife stole her daughter's things, not only did they not dissuade them, but they even aided in the abuse.
Seeing that those things had been found, Cao Mu couldn't wait to scratch Ling Chu's face.
Seeing that Jiang ordered the maid to carry the dowry away, he was distressed.
Both hands tugged at Cao Hongxin's arm, chattering and persuading him to leave his things.
Cao Hongxin was so angry and helpless that his mother quarreled with him.
Although his mother persuaded him to leave his daughter's dowry to his son to marry in the future.
But Cao Hongxin knew that his mother actually wanted to wait for him to leave his things before finding a way to make up for the second room.
Ling Chu glanced at Cao's mother, who was still chattering, and handed the things in his hand to Cao Hongxin, "Lord Cao, look at this." ”
Cao Hongxin was a little puzzled, not knowing what Ling Chu asked him to see.
Seeing her solemn face, she hurriedly broke away from her mother's pull, and quickly stepped forward to reach out and take the paper.
When his eyes touched the words on the paper, Cao Hongxin's face changed.
The more he looked down, the more ugly Cao Hongxin's face became.
Cao's mother didn't know what he was looking at, and blindly tried to persuade her eldest son not to give everything to his daughter as a dowry.
Cao Hongxin couldn't care about those marries at the moment, and asked Cao's mother with a dark face, "Mother, is the second brother crazy, he actually borrowed money from Yinzi?" ”
Cao's mother looked confused, "What kind of money?" ”
Cao Hongxin was so angry that he threw the IOU in his hand in front of his mother.
Cao Mu bowed her head and saw the amount on it, and it was dark in front of her.
She didn't know that her youngest son actually borrowed money from Yinzi, and no matter how much she spoiled him, she knew that this thing couldn't be touched.
Profit, can make their family bankrupt.
Cao's mother couldn't care about her granddaughter's dowry, so she ran outside with an IOU to question her youngest son.
Cao Hongxin held back his anger and followed.
Originally, Cao Hongdeng borrowed money from Yinzi, and only his wife Yao knew about it.
Faced with Cao Mu and Cao Hongxin's questioning, Cao Hongdeng panicked at first, but then he was happy.
The reason why he stole his niece's dowry was to sell it so that it could be used to repay the printing money.
Originally, this thing was done secretly, but this time the family found out, just in time for everyone to help him pay off his debts.
Cao Hongdeng cried to his mother, saying that the reason why he borrowed money from Yinzi was because he saw that his family could not make ends meet, and he couldn't bear it.
Thinking of borrowing money to make the business bigger, and making money so that his father and mother can enjoy it.
Cao Hongdeng has had a sweet mouth since he was a child, which will make Cao's mother lose his anger and feel that his filial piety is rare. Seeing that her mother-in-law was not angry, Yao secretly made a dark color to her husband.
Cao Hongdeng wiped his tears and began to cry poor, saying that he had no money, and he couldn't pay the money in India.
Seeing him crying sadly, Cao's mother immediately felt distressed.
Without thinking about it, he said to Cao Hongdeng, "Xin'er, although it is wrong for your second brother to borrow money from Yinzi, he is also filial." Now that your second brother is in trouble, you can't stand idly by, you are brothers......"
The more Cao Hongxin listened, the colder his heart became, his mother was really eccentric.
"Mother, I'm only a six-rank official, that little money is not enough to support the family, the second brother borrowed so much money, how can you let me help him?"
"Why don't you have any money, so many dowries, you can sell them first......" Cao's mother blurted out subconsciously, and when she saw her eldest son glaring at her in disbelief, she couldn't help but stop.
Jiang Shi listened to her mother-in-law's words, and sneered in her heart, she didn't even bother to say a word.
She only glared at her husband coldly, and beckoned the maid to carry away her daughter's dowry box. Jiang has already pondered in her heart that when her daughter gets married, she will take the child and leave back to her parents' house.
has been married for many years, and Cao Hongxin can see what his wife is thinking at a glance.
At this moment, he was angry and helpless.
His wife was about to reconcile and divorce him, but his mother was still pulling him to help his second brother repay the huge amount of money.
Ling Chu glanced at Cao Hongxin, who was suppressing his anger, and his mind changed, "Lord Cao, can you take a step to speak?" ”
Cao Hongxin was originally so angry with him that Ling Chu's words just gave him a chance.
After a few perfunctory words to his mother, he took the opportunity to break free of his arm and walked away with Ling Chu.
Cao Mu and Cao Hongdeng, the husband and wife, frowned and looked at their backs, although they were curious about what they were going to say, but they didn't dare to follow. can't anger Cao Hongxin, and you have to count on him to help pay back the money.
"Miss Ling, thank you for your great help." Cao Hongxin is sincerely grateful to Ling Chu, but fortunately she found a dowry, otherwise his daughter's marriage would be ruined.
"Lord Cao doesn't have to be polite, I don't have to hide it, I have something to ask for, and I want to borrow Cao Erye's seal money IOU for use."
Cao Hongxin looked puzzled, it was the first time he heard someone want to borrow this thing.
Ling Chu knew that he was curious, but she couldn't elaborate, "Lord Cao, I can't tell you the specifics. But...... If you're lucky, maybe I can save you from that big profit. Even if I can't, I'll give you back the IOU in its original form. ”
Cao Hongxin's eyes widened suspiciously.
Miss Ling wants to help them avoid that high amount of money, and such a great good thing?
Cao Hongxin's mind was running quickly.
If someone else said this, he might not believe it, but Miss Ling was a disciple of Xuanyi Zhenren, maybe there was really something to do?
Cao Hongxin only hesitated for a moment before agreeing.
Although he didn't believe that Ling Chu could really help them avoid the high amount of interest, he thought about what if.
As long as there is a 1 in 10,000 chance, he wants to try it too.
Knowing that Ling Chu would not elaborate, Cao Hongxin did not ask any more.
After finding his mother and getting the IOU, he gave her the IOU when he sent Ling Chu out.
Cao's mother and Cao Hongdeng's husband and wife were so happy that they couldn't keep their mouths together, and when they saw that Cao Hongxin was going to take the IOU, they thought that he had finally agreed to help repay the money.
Leaving Cao's Mansion, Ling Chu returned to the house on Qintai Street and took out the IOU of Zhou Banqin's house for comparison.
The note on it is exactly the same as the lender's name.
Zhou Banqin's father and Cao Hongdeng's Yinzi money were both borrowed from the Zhao Guogong Mansion.
Although the lender above is the grandmother next to Mrs. Zhao Guo, the person behind it is definitely Mrs. Zhao Guo.
Tomorrow, she will take these two IOUs to the Guo family to ask for the concubine papers.
The person who poured oil on the fire last night was not caught, and seeing that the sky was already dark, Ling Chu arranged for the maid to patrol at night, but he was still not very relieved when he thought about it.
Before going to sleep, he simply summoned the shovel and the small hammer.
Originally it was just in case.
But at night, she suddenly woke up inexplicably and suddenly felt a little uneasy.
After thinking about it, Ling Chu decided to open the system and check it.
As soon as the system was opened, a black shadow was seen jumping up the courtyard wall on the east side of the room from the outside.
