Chapter 24: Hide? Dream!
Zhang Cheng was originally in the yamen, but he paid the ransom and promised that he would return all the silver tomorrow before he barely got out.
But where does he have any silver?
The 30,000 principal filled the deficit, and it had already fallen into Yu Jinxi's hands, and the money from selling the silk was taken away by Gu Qiheng.
But if he doesn't say so, he can't be the master, and the government will invite the master's house, that is, let Yu Jinxi come to the court.
Once Yu Jinxi goes to court, he will have to check the accounts, and his crime will only be heavier at that time.
Zhang Cheng was dripping in cold sweat, and wanted to come to the Gu family to intercede first, and let Yu Jinxi spare his life, as long as he returned the silver, he would be safe and sound.
After listening to him, Yu Jinxi didn't intend to spare him, and said with a serious expression, "I don't know anything about what you said, raising prices without authorization, hoarding and selling, and shoddy goods are taboos for merchants, and now that things are done like this, I can't control it." ”
"Zhang Cheng, if you dare to do this this time, it's hard to guarantee that you didn't do this before, and there is a problem with the store's accounts. Since you are here, and you have made things clear, if you don't explain honestly, you might as well go back to the yamen to explain. ”
The ...... of the past
Zhang Cheng was dumbfounded, he subconsciously looked at Gu Qiheng, but was glared at by Gu Qiheng viciously, Zhang Cheng instantly chilled, lowered his head and said, "The account books did lose money in the past..."
Yu Jinxi interrupted him, "Qingti, go and ask someone to write a paper and take him to the yamen." ”
Zhang Cheng panicked instantly, "Miss, please spare me, I don't dare anymore..."
"If you don't drag it out, the noise is dead."
Gu Qiheng hurriedly ordered his subordinates to take Zhang Cheng away, but Yu Jinxi didn't stop him, and asked people to take Zhang Cheng to the Yamen.
Zhang Cheng was taken away, Gu Qiheng walked up to Yu Jinxi, and said softly, "Jinxi, this shop is always in your name, you can't ignore this matter!" If you continue to make trouble, it will not be good for your reputation. ”
Yu Jinxi nodded in agreement, "The money naturally has to be returned, and the money from selling Yunlong silk ......"
Gu Qiheng hurriedly said, "I'll take the money for emergency, Jinxi, you help me again, please." ”
Yu Jinxi sighed, "I sold the shop to see if I could do it." ”
This time, Gu Qiheng had no objections.
Sell it, sell it, it's not his industry anyway.
Yu Jinxi returned to the backyard, and Qing Ti couldn't help asking, "Miss, that's your dowry, do you really want to sell it to that person to fill the hole?" ”
Yu Jinxi didn't explain, but said, "Let's hang out first." ”
The matter of the silk shop became more and more intense, the people cursed and did not speak, and some people threw rotten eggs and rotten vegetable leaves at the door of the shop, and the shop could not open at all.
Yu Jinxi told Gu Qiheng that the shop could not be sold, although some people bought it, but the price was also very low, at most 1,000 taels of silver.
Gu Qiheng only said to let her call the shots, and directly pushed this mess to her.
Qing Ti scolded angrily when she heard this, but Yu Jinxi had already expected it, and her emotions were not fluctuating.
"Little master, don't bother our young lady, young lady has been worried about things outside recently, and I really don't want to see outsiders."
Qingti blocked the gate of the courtyard, her tone was not kind, Gu Chengxuan was not annoyed, and stood holding a small box, "Sister Qingti, I came to my mother to relieve her worries." ”
"Little master, what can you do about things outside?"
Seeing that Qing Ti softened, Gu Chengxuan got directly under her armpit, and turned back to her and said, "I really have a way." ”
Qingti didn't catch up, staring at him in disgust and running in.
At this time, Yu Jinxi was lying on the soft couch, and when she heard the movement, she opened her eyes slightly, and saw Gu Chengxuan standing in front of her.
"Why are you here?"
She was too lazy to talk to him, and her voice was lazy.
Gu Chengxuan listened to her weak voice, and thought that what Qing Ti said was true, and then he held the small box he carried with him to her.
"Mother, I have money here, you don't have to worry about the silver."
Gu Chengxuan looked innocent, as if he really wanted to solve problems for Yu Jinxi.
Yu Jinxi stared at him for a while before speaking, "You have a heart!" ”
Gu Chengxuan said with a smile, "Yes, my mother is good to me, and I want to be good to my mother." ”
Yu Jinxi didn't speak, Qingti walked over quickly, and directly took the small box in Gu Chengxuan's hand, "The little young master really has a heart, the slave maid looks at how much silver the little young master gives to the young lady?" ”
Qingti also smiled, and Yu Jinxi didn't care about her.
Gu Chengxuan was dissatisfied, so he looked at Yu Jinxi with a blank eye, "This is all the New Year's money given to me by my mother in previous years, and now my mother is in trouble, I should give it to my mother." ”
Without waiting for Yu Jinxi to speak, Qing Ti said, "In previous years, Miss gave the little young master a lot, not to mention a thousand taels, little young master, you have some broken silver in this box, and the total number of bits and pieces does not even add up to fifty taels, how can you solve problems for the young lady?" ”
Qing Ti sneered in her heart, her feelings were to take some scattered silver to play here?
It's really a virtue with his dead father!
Gu Chengxuan thought that Yu Jinxi would not want it, who thought that it would be opened by Qingti, and he would be exposed in public.
Adult's business, he is a little kid who takes out the money he thinks is the most and says good things, thinking about how Yu Jinxi should be moved, hugging him, saying that he is a good boy.
I feel sorry for him, don't take him, don't say anything, and have to give him some, why don't you follow the routine?
At this time, he heard Yu Jinxi say to him lightly, "I have received your heart, you can go back, I still have something to do." ”
Qing Ti also said, "Little master, there are still people waiting outside to see Miss and ask for money, and you can't help, so don't make a mess here." ”
Gu Chengxuan wanted to say something, but he was pushed out by Qing Ti, and the small box was also placed by Qing Ti next to Yu Jinxi, and he didn't plan to return him at all.
Gu Chengxuan looked at Yu Jinxi with an aggrieved expression, Yu Jinxi simply closed his eyes and pretended not to see it.
Qing Ti sent the person away, turned his face and was angry, and looked at the small box beside Yu Jinxi even more angry.
"The family is a white-eyed wolf, and he gives him so much New Year's money, and he is embarrassed to hold a rotten box with such a little loose silver to show his hospitality."
Qingti pulled out the broken silver, threw away the small box, and said hatefully, "It's just such a little silver, and I want to take it away when I leave, it's really shameless." ”
Yu Jinxi sneered, "He brought the silver here to let me praise him for being sensible, and he didn't plan to give me this silver, and he wanted to get a 'sensible fee' from me, and he was moving back by the way." ”
Qing Ti snorted fiercely, "Daydreaming!" ”
After two days of trouble, Yu Jinxi took 800 taels of silver to return the money, of course this money was not enough to return, and the remaining Yu Jinxi asked Chu Dashan to make a white note, promising that if they didn't get the account in a day, they could go to the Gu family to ask for money.
Gu Qiheng wanted to hide and relax, not only did he have no door, but he also had no windows.
