Chapter 25: Burning with Anger (Asking for a Monthly Pass, Asking for a Reward, Asking for a Subscription)
"Big cousin, what about your eldest granddaughter, please come out and show her aunts."
The old lady sighed: "Coincidentally, she was not at home, she went to the capital with her father early in the morning, and there is also a stunning building in the capital, and the shopkeepers are eager to wear it, waiting for her to take over." ”
The surroundings suddenly quieted down, the old lady smiled slightly, and as she guessed, when it came to the Jinghong Tower in the capital, these people couldn't even speak.
After a long while, the third cousin asked tentatively: "Cousin, do you mean that the silver building in the capital, also called Jinghong Building, is also your granddaughter's?" ”
The old lady glanced at her, it belongs to this third cousin's favorite show, buy a bracelet to show off, now I know, I just let her before, such a big silver building in the capital, how many bracelets will she want?
"It's not hers, it's our He family." The old lady is light and breezy.
"Yes, yes, yes, it belongs to the He family, it belongs to the He family." The third cousin sneered.
The old lady sneered in her heart, and the fourth cousin smiled and played a round: "I heard that the nobles in the palace are all frequent visitors to the Jinghong Building." ”
"It's all in the capital, and it's also convenient." The old lady is not arrogant or impatient.
The fifth cousin hurriedly said: "There are so many silver buildings in the capital, why do people have to go to Jinghong Building, it's not because Jinghong Building is a time-honored brand, Tong Suo is not bullied, in the future, when we go to the capital, we have to ask the eldest cousin to talk to the shopkeeper in the shop, more or less give a discount." ”
The third cousin slapped his thigh: "Speaking of the capital, that's far away, but don't we really have a Jinghong Mansion in Zhendingfu?" Big cousin, why don't we go to Jinghong Building today to taste it? ”
The old lady's heart moved, yes, who belongs to Jinghong Building, wouldn't she have to spend her own money to treat her in the future.
"Okay, pack up, let's get over."
In the evening, when the restaurant was about to have guests, several carriages stopped in front of the Jinghong Building, and the old lady said to Zhao's mother: "Go and talk to the people in the building, and vacate the best private room." ”
Zhao's mother agreed to get out of the carriage, but she was stunned, although she had never eaten in the Jinghong Building, but she also passed by here at this time and saw the prosperity of the Jinghong Building with her own eyes.
What's going on today?
Why is it deserted in front of the building?
After a closer look, Zhao's mother was startled, the door of Jinghong Building was not even opened, and the door was closed.
The scene in front of her, Zhao's mother saw it, and of course the old sisters who came with the old lady also saw it.
"Ouch, what's going on, I just changed owners, why is it closed?"
As soon as she heard the voice of the third cousin, the old lady was so angry that she said to Zhao's mother: "Go knock on the door and let the shopkeeper come out to see me!" ”
If you don't do business when it's time to do business, doesn't this shopkeeper want to do it?
Who gave him the guts?
Zhao's mother soon went and returned, followed by the white shopkeeper with a sad face.
"Why don't you open the door?" The old lady was angry, and the matter was serious.
The white shopkeeper was about to cry: "The old lady of the owner, it's not that we don't want to open the door, it's . I can't even get the money to buy vegetables and meat, and there are no fresh ingredients, so how can we open the door to do business, and we must be able to make it when the guests order. ”
"Ouch, such a big Jinghong Building, there is no money to buy vegetables and meat? Oh my God, how can this happen! ”
The old lady didn't need to look at it, and she knew that it was the third cousin who said cool things.
The old lady suppressed her anger and asked, "Where is the silver?" Where did it all go? Don't you even have any money to turn around? ”
The white shopkeeper wiped a handful of beads of sweat that did not exist on his forehead: "Don't hide it from the old lady, just a few hours ago, there were 1,852 taels of silver in our restaurant, not to mention buying vegetables and meat, even if you bought two or three carts of abalone ginseng wings, it was enough." ”
The old lady nodded, although she had never opened a restaurant, she also knew that such a large restaurant would have to have one or two thousand taels of silver.
"Where did the money go? Have you bought all the abalone and cucumber wings? ”
The old lady swallowed her saliva, and it was not impossible to set up a table of abalone wings for a banquet.
The white shopkeeper took out the account book, turned to the latest page, pointed to the signature on it and said: "Today, the owner's wife came and took all the money in the account. ”
The old lady was taken aback: "Mrs. Dong? Which proprietor's wife? ”
The white shopkeeper was stunned: "It's the mother of our owner, Miss He, old lady, the owner's wife has a lot of money, didn't you inform you?" ”
The old lady almost vomited out a mouthful of old blood, but the hateful third cousin began to mutter: "Ouch, if this is replaced by my daughter-in-law, I dare to pay money from the family account casually, I will divorce her, this is not taking my mother-in-law in my eyes at all, this kind of daughter-in-law, why are you keeping it, waiting to kill your mother-in-law?" ”
The old lady was already angry.
"She took all the silver?" She still doesn't give up, more than 1,800 taels, no matter which one you put it in, this is not a small amount.
The white shopkeeper waved his hand, and two strong men ran over.
The white shopkeeper said to them: "It was you who gave the money to the wife of the proprietor, and you should quickly tell the old lady whether the silver was asked for by the wife of the proprietor." ”
The two men hurriedly said: "Old lady, those silver are indeed asked for by the wife of the owner, we sent it over, and the wife of the owner accepted it on the spot, one or two is not much, and one or two is not much." ”
The old lady heard Dian Mingtang and asked, "Where did you send the silver?" ”
The two guys said in unison: "It's been sent to the Yan Ji pen and ink shop on Guangsheng Street." ”
The old lady's body shook, this wicked woman, this is stealing the He family's silver to supplement her own family!
"Go, go, go home, go home!"
What the cousins said again, the old lady couldn't hear it, she only had one thought now, go home and let her two sons, no, take all the family members to the Yan Ji pen and ink shop, and take back the silver that belonged to the He family!
Also in the evening, Master He and He Ran finally arrived in the capital.
Looking at the wide streets and bustling street markets, Master He had mixed feelings.
How long has it been since he has been to the capital?
In fact, not long ago, he came three months ago, he went to visit his former boss, but he didn't even see a figure, he went around the Wen Xuan Division again, and similarly, Wen Xuanlang didn't see him.
He waited for a long time in front of the Wen Xuan Division, and wanted to ask Wen Xuanlang to sit in the restaurant, but after the meal, he didn't see Wen Xuanlang come out. (End of chapter)
