Chapter 82: Money and Money
"Dependency?"
Zhao Chengzhou sneered, "What about dependence, she Jiang Chan is just a slut!" ”
The old lady frowned and shook her head, but did not say anything.
In the blink of an eye, Zhao Chengzhou spoke: "Mother, I really need some silver taels right now..."
The old lady glanced at him and sighed.
"Zhou'er is out and needs money, how can my mother not give it."
As he spoke, a smile appeared on Zhao Chengzhou's face.
The old lady held Zhao Chengzhou's hand and said earnestly.
"This Hou Mansion, for the time being, can't do without Jiang Chan's dowry, Zhou'er, do you understand?"
Hearing this, Zhao Chengzhou gritted his teeth and nodded.
"Zhou'er understands."
Following.
The hot meat on the table made Xu Er laugh, and Li Niang looked at it with a satisfied look.
Looking at the happy appearance of the two, Zhao Chengzhou ate these foods, but he couldn't be happy in the end.
Although the old lady gave two taels of silver, in the end, the Hou Mansion was not financially good and gave not much.
Within a few days, the silver taels were spent.
As soon as there was no meat to eat, Xu'er and Liniang made a big fuss again, and in desperation, Zhao Chengzhou went to find the old lady and asked for silver taels.
The flesh and blood that fell out of her body, how could the old lady not give it.
On this day, the three of them were lying down after eating big fish and meat, and there were several noisy sounds outside the door.
Bang bang bang!
The loud slamming of the door quickly woke the three of them from their dreams.
"Completed boat..."
Liniang held Xu'er in her arms and hid behind Zhao Chengzhou in fear.
"Liniang, don't be afraid, I'm here."
Zhao Chengzhou protected Liniang and said.
The door was smashed one after another, the door railing loosened slightly, and several men stepped into the threshold with sticks in their hands!
"Who are you?"
Zhao Chengzhou asked.
The man in charge snorted coldly and threatened.
"Obediently, hand over all the silver, and we will let you live."
"If you don't pay it..."
As he spoke, he glanced at Liniang who was hiding behind Zhao Chengzhou.
He licked his dry lips and stared at Li Niang with greedy eyes.
"Hand over your, I'll think about it."
Li Niang was numb and clutched Zhao Chengzhou's underwear tightly.
"Don't think!"
Zhao Chengzhou scolded.
The man at the head raised his stick and snorted, and walked slowly forward.
Zhao Chengzhou watched him approach step by step, swallowing his saliva, "Money... Money, money, I'll give you all the money. ”
"It's in the cupboard over there!"
As he spoke, he pointed to the cabinet beside him.
"It's a boat! The money is gone, what are we doing. ”
Li Niang said in a low voice.
Zhao Chengzhou didn't speak, just quietly watched the few big men in front of him take away all the money in the cabinet.
There are too many people on the other side.
Even if he resisted, he ended up in a miserable situation.
It was not enough for a few big men to take the money in the cabinet, and then they went through the whole room and took away all the jewelry of Li Niang.
Li Niang looked at it, and anger surged in her eyes.
The man at the head saw her eyes and sneered, "Little girl, otherwise, you follow Lao Tzu." ”
"Lao Tzu spoils you?"
Facing the man's eyes, Liniang's stomach was boiling, and she was too scared to speak.
Zhao Chengzhou said in a hurry, "Didn't you say that you would leave after taking the money?" ”
"You..."
Before he finished speaking, the man in charge glared at him, and Zhao Chengzhou immediately closed his mouth.
"Let's go."
He waved his hand and left with the big men.
For a while, there were big ups and downs in the room, and it was a mess.
Li Niang punched Zhao Chengzhou's back fiercely and scolded.
"Now it's good! Nothing! What the hell am I following you for? ”
With that, she hid her face and sobbed quietly.
The bursts of sobbing in his ears made Zhao Chengzhou a little irritable, and he scolded.
"Don't cry!"
Li Niang's body shook and sobbed.
Zhao Chengzhou breathed a long sigh of relief, and hugged Liniang distressedly, "Liniang, don't worry." ”
"I'll give you the life you want."
……
"Girl, everything you explained has been done."
The guard arched his hand to Jiang Chan in front of him.
"It's the silver taels that those ruffians snatched, and some jewelry."
He pointed to a sack on the ground.
Jiang Chan looked coldly at the sack on the ground and couldn't help but smile.
It's just a matter of going out and staying temporarily.
That's a lot.
"Open."
She said lightly.
"Yes."
The guard received the order and opened the sack in front of him.
The moment you open it, you see a whole lot of jewelry.
At a glance, there are a lot of familiar jewelry.
Jiang Chan sneered and squatted down.
There are a lot of them, all of them are her dowry, and she wants to take them.
"The rest, divided between you and the ruffians."
After taking out the dowry, Jiang Chan commanded.
"Thank you, girl."
The guards thanked him.
Jiang Chan tilted his head and gestured to Cuiwei.
Cuiwei stepped forward and put away all the dowries she had picked out.
"How can these dowries flow outside?"
She shook her head.
But Jiang Chan didn't respond, raising his eyes and looking at the bright moon in the sky.
Hou Mansion.
"Mother!"
Dafang was so anxious that he stomped his feet, "Right now, the days in the house are getting more and more difficult." ”
"Recently, the second sister-in-law asked people to take away her dowry, how can the life of the Hou Mansion continue!"
The old lady looked at her and pinched her eyebrows in annoyance.
"Look at you like this, what do you look like!"
Dafang twisted his body in dissatisfaction and sat back in his seat.
"Mother, if this matter is to be resolved, we still have to let the second sister-in-law come back."
Zhao Ying gently patted the old lady's shoulder and said.
The old lady sighed.
If you want Jiang Cicada to come back, I'm afraid you have to 'please'!
If it weren't for the fact that the Hou Mansion was going to be unable to withstand it now, how could she...
The old lady clung to the handrail, her eyes were vague.
Temple.
Knock knock knock...
"Second lady, second lady!"
Cuiwei looked at the door from outside.
And outside the door together, there were also the old lady and Zhao Ying.
Zhao Ying supported the old lady and poked her head out with an anxious expression.
"It's been a long time, why hasn't the second sister-in-law come out yet."
Zhao Ying said anxiously: "This scorching sun, mother, don't suffer from heat stroke." ”
The old lady listened and snorted coldly.
"It's still Ying'er who will feel sorry for people."
Squeak...
As soon as Jiang Chan stepped out of the threshold, he couldn't help but smile when he saw the two people in front of the door sympathizing with each other.
"I wonder why you two came looking for me?"
Hearing the voice, Zhao Ying and the old lady looked over together.
Seeing Jiang Chan's appearance, the old lady was angry.
"Mother..."
Zhao Ying gently patted the back of the old lady's hand and shook her head.
The old lady took a deep breath before she endured the anger in her heart.
Looking at the appearance of the two, Jiang Chan smiled faintly and sat down at the stone table on the side.
"Cuiwei, there is a distinguished guest coming, why don't you say hello, come with something delicious?"
Jiang Chan raised his voice.
"Yes, Cuiwei will go."
Cuiwei turned and left.
Zhao Ying supported the old lady, and the two looked at each other.
