Zhou Li ordered a plate of peanuts and ate it at a wine shop near Song Mansion.

This liquor shop is located at the three-way intersection leading to the main entrance of the Song Mansion, and sitting here, you can see the movements of all parties clearly.

However, Zhou Li doesn't need to look at all directions today, he just needs to stare at the west.

Finally, the people from the gambling house appeared with Lu Xingwang.

Zhou Li immediately got up, took the wine he had prepared in advance, and walked quickly towards the Song Mansion.

When the porter Lao He saw Zhou Li, he greeted him with a smile: "Ali, I'm going out on an errand again!" ”

"yes, running and breaking legs every day." Zhou Li smiled bitterly.

Then handed over the wine jug: "Xinghua Village, taste it." ”

Lao He frowned and smiled: "Just you are thinking about my brother." ”

"That's a must, I have been in the house for a short time, thanks to your care, brother, otherwise my eyes will be black, how can I get started so quickly."

"That's your cleverness." Lao He Le opened the cork and took a deep breath at the spout, and the wine was fragrant.

"It's a good wine!"

But at this time, he was on duty, but he didn't dare to drink, Lao He sniffed again, and forced the alcohol addiction to stuff the pot back.

As he was talking, Lu Xingwang came.

Lao He saw a man with a blue nose and swollen face, and a man in tattered clothes suddenly straightened his face: "I want food, do you know where this is?" Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up. ”

"Lao He, it's me, prosperous."

Lao He was stunned, and leaned closer to take a closer look at the pig's head.

"Yo! I really don't see it, why are you like this? ”

How dare Lu Xingwang say that the person who beat him was behind him: "Alas! Don't mention it, I got into a fight with someone, that, I'm looking for my mother. ”

Lao He said: "Let me go and say a word." ”

Zhou Li on the side asked curiously: "Lao He, ...... is he?"

"He's Mama Cui's son, Ali, you help me take a look here, I'll go to Tongyu."

"It turned out to be Mama Cui's son, so what's the point? I'll take you in. ”

Lao He: ...... But this is the rule of the house.

When Lao He was stunned, Zhou Li had already skillfully pulled Lu Xingwang in.

Mama Cui was picking out new clothes with her wife, and when she heard her son coming to the door, Mama Cui hurriedly said goodbye to her wife and hurried to the second gate to see her son.

Daylily and the others got the letter, and when they saw people, they said that Cui's son came to the door with a blue nose and swollen face.

So the curious maidservants and mothers-in-law rushed to see the excitement.

Mama Wang and Mama Liu are naturally not far behind.

Mama Liu is purely watching the excitement, but Mama Wang has another layer of thought in her heart.

The day before yesterday, I heard Mama Kong talk about seeing Mama Cui write a letter to Mama Deng, which reminded her of another thing.

It was also last year that Mama Cui's son came to the door, and she happened to see it, the mother and son seemed to have an argument, she was curious and quietly touched it and listened to it, Mama Cui cried and begged her son not to gamble anymore.

Only then did she understand why Mama Cui was so greedy and dared to love a gambler son in the family.

These two things are connected, so it is reasonable for Mama Cui to betray her wife and join Aunt Zheng.

She told the eldest lady about this, but the eldest lady didn't react, she was quite disappointed at the time, but today Grandma Cui's son came to the door.

I don't know if this has anything to do with the eldest lady.

At the second gate, as soon as Lu Xingwang saw his mother, he knelt down and cried: "Mother, save me, otherwise I will die......"

Mama Cui couldn't help but be shocked when she saw his miserable appearance: "Hurry up, what's going on?" ”

"Mother, I owe the eighth master four hundred and seventy-two taels, if I don't pay it today, the eighth master will cut off my hands and feet, mother, you have to save me......"

Mama Cui's eyes were black and she almost fainted.

Four hundred and seventy-two taels?

Even if you sell her, you can't make up so much.

Since Xingwang became addicted to gambling, she has lost all her savings for many years.

"Rebel, you want your mother's life...... If you don't gamble, don't gamble, if you don't listen, do you have to make your family ruined before you give up? Cui Mama raised her hand angrily.

But when he saw his son's bruised and swollen face, he couldn't wave his hand for a long time.

She gave birth to such a son in her life, and she was spoiled by thousands of people, and as a result, she became this virtuous character.

"What kind of sin did I create, giving birth to such a rebel ...... you," Mama Cui beat her chest and was heartbroken.

Hiding behind the flower wall and watching the lively crowd, he silently answered this question for Mama Cui in her heart.

What iniquity is made?

How much silver have you taken us, and what iniquity do you say you have made?

"Mother, you help me pay back the money first, I swear never to gamble again."

"Swear, you've sworn countless times, but which one counts?" Mama Cui asked, she was already disappointed in this son.

"Mother, this time it's true, I promise, I swear, mother...... Hurry up and get the money out......" Lu Xingwang hugged his mother's leg and cried: "You can't watch me being cut off my hands and feet and become a waste......

Mama Cui also cried: "Son, my mother has already given you the last copper plate on my body, where do you let my mother go to get four hundred and seventy-two taels?" ”

Zhou Li thought for a while, took out a few pieces of broken silver from his sleeve pocket, and handed them over: "Brother Xingwang, I have a little broken silver, not much, one or two or two dollars, why don't you take it first?" ”

Lu Xingwang turned his head to look at Zhou Li, choked up and said, "Thank you, brother." ”

got up and took away the broken silver in Zhou Li's hand, wiped his tears fiercely, and his swollen eyes revealed a trace of fierceness and coldness: "Mother, look at it, an irrelevant person is willing to help his son, you are my mother, but you can't save you when you die." ”

"Son, my mother really has no money."

"You have." Lu Xingwang shouted.

"Do you have, didn't that aunt surnamed Zheng give you a sum of money every month? I heard what you said to my father, you said that you would save it for me to marry a daughter-in-law, but I am going to become a waste, what kind of daughter-in-law will I marry? Mother, you take out the money and help me pay off the debt first. This time, Lu Xingwang was no longer in a pleading tone, but a commanding tone.

Mama Cui almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood, and she didn't know if she was dizzy or stupid.

It was only after half a sound that he reacted, and said in a trembling voice: "What nonsense are you talking about?" ”

The money has long been used by Xingwang to gamble and pay off debts.

What do you say about saving up to marry a daughter-in-law?

She thought, but can she save it?

The next moment, she reacted again, this is the Song Mansion, and there is Zhou Li standing next to her.

She subconsciously looked around, and then, seeing the black head behind the lattice of the flower wall, a pair of stunned eyes stared at her.

Mama Cui only felt a buzz in her head, she did take Aunt Zheng's money and did something inappropriate for Aunt Zheng.

She had never thought of betraying her wife, but her son owed a lot of gambling debts...... Can she still speak clearly?

Mama Cui's eyes turned black and she fainted.

Behind the flower wall, all the mothers-in-law and maidservants were dumbfounded.

Mama Cui took Aunt Zheng's money?

And every month?

Doesn't that mean that Mama Cui betrayed Madame?

I didn't expect to see the excitement, but I heard such shocking secrets.

Mama Liu and Mama Wang, two people who are not on the right track, looked at each other at this time, left very tacitly, and went to Chengxin Hall together.
