While Jiao Shun rushed to Dongfu, the birthday banquet finally came to an end.
Everyone didn't show it to their faces, but when they got home, they couldn't help but talk about everything during the afternoon.
Not to mention others.
However, when the cousins Jia Yingchun and Xing Xiuyan returned home, Xing Xiuyan was in a better mood, but Yingchun hid in the inner room and cried endlessly. No matter how Si Qi and Xiu Ju tried to persuade them, even taking out the "Tai Shang Induction Sutra", it was of no avail.
How can Siqi, with his fiery temper, endure such entanglement?
Thinking of the scene during the day, I gritted my teeth and went to Xingxiu's smoke house in the west room, holding a gun and a stick to question him.
But no matter how Si Qi pressed him, Xing Xiuyan refused to tell the truth.
The reason why she told Jia Yingchun about this before was that she couldn't bear to be kept in the dark, and she also hoped that Jia Yingchun could pass the news to Jiao Shun, but she had no intention of spreading it widely.
Otherwise, if this matter reaches my aunt's ears, I'm afraid...
"Miss Xing, Miss Xing!"
Just as he was thinking of this, someone suddenly called outside. When Xing Xiuyan went out to take a look, it was none other than Mr. Xing who sent someone to invite him.
The color suddenly drained from Xing Xiuyan's face, and she thought something had happened.
As a result, when we arrived at the Dongkua Courtyard, Mr.
besides……
"From now on, you stay away from that Jiao Shun, and you must never have any contact with him again!" Ms.
nice one!"
It was obvious that she was trying to trick someone but was countered, but luckily she had the nerve to say it so confidently.
In the past, Xing Xiuyan would have secretly rejoiced when he heard these words, but now he knows that his aunt's words were just because Jia She wanted to 'sell' herself to a merchant's house at a price.
I am afraid of comparison in everything.
With Jiao Shun as a reference, the son of a merchant who was willing to spend a lot of money to woo Jia She seemed to be unworthy.
What's more, if you are a mature young talent, you don't need to be so clingy. Those who need to spend money to find their way around are mostly...
Thinking of this, Xing Xiuyan was naturally conflicted, but he didn't dare to show it openly, so he had to respond ambiguously.
Just as he was thinking about how to escape, he suddenly heard the steward come over to report that a servant of the loyal and obedient Wang family was asking to see the eldest master. Hearing that the eldest master was in retreat in the Buddhist hall, he left behind a letter and left.
Hearing that King Zhongshun sent someone here, Mrs. Xing naturally did not dare to neglect it, so she ordered someone to fetch it and personally delivered it to the Buddhist hall together with the evening meal.
Entering the Buddhist hall, you can see the ink stains and white paper on the ground. Several women are wiping them away with sad faces. However, Jia She is lying on all fours in front of the Buddha statue, with one foot even on the lotus platform, and can't help teasing Guanyin.
Bodhisattva's calves.
"Madam."
When the leader's wife saw Ms.
With that said, he was ready to leave.
However, after taking two steps, he remembered something and turned around and whispered: "By the way, the old lady also told me that if you don't copy and recite enough, you won't be able to leave here for a hundred days. I still want to persuade the old lady to write it down."
Once you write it, read it once."
Mrs.
Rub~
Before Ms.
My wife is ruined!"
As he said that, he grabbed half of Xing's collar, raised his fist and was about to smash it into Hu Ermei's face.
Mrs.
Reveal your bottom line?!"
"Um?"
Jia She relaxed his fist and said suspiciously: "God knows that you know and I know about this. If it wasn't you, who would have leaked the news? Are you a stupid woman trying to trick me?!"
After saying that, he tugged hard on Xing's collar and tore out half of it.
"How dare I deceive the master?! It must be, it must be..."
Xing subconsciously wanted to shirk it, but she remembered that only she and Jia She knew about this. If she wanted to shirk the blame, wouldn't she have to blame Jia She?
At that moment, he stopped talking hurriedly.
Jia She stared at her for a while, feeling that she wouldn't have the guts to lie to him, so he threw her away fiercely and said angrily: "I'll find out later that it was you who exposed the truth. I'll see if I don't cheat on you."
skin!"
With that said, Da Ma Jin Dao sat down in front of the desk, and impatiently swept all the remaining four treasures of the study on the table to the floor, and scolded: "Why are you standing there, why don't you hurry up and serve me food!"
As if she had received an amnesty, Mr.
"Copy what?!"
Jia She impatiently ordered: "Just find someone to copy a hundred copies of my handwriting and send it to you every day!"
Mrs.
"Hiss~"
Hearing the name of King Zhongshun, the unruly look on Jia She's face immediately disappeared. He took a deep breath, grabbed the letter with his hands, tore open the cover and glanced at it for a few times, his expression became gloomy and uncertain.
"master."
Mrs.
"snort!"
Jia She slapped the letter on the table and gritted his teeth: "What else could it be? Of course they heard that I was imprisoned and came here to collect debts!"
"Collect debt?"
Mr. Xing was stunned for a moment, then thought of the foreign debts his family had accumulated, and couldn't help but suddenly said: "Master, did you borrow that money from Prince Zhongshun's Mansion?"
As he spoke, a look of fear appeared on his face.
After all, King Zhongshun is no better than others. He is a master who can really quarrel with each other in person. If he comes to the house on the pretext of collecting debts...
Mr. Xing shuddered and couldn't help blurting out: "Why do you want to borrow his money?"
"What do you know?!"
Jia She glared at Mr.
As for why he had to borrow money from King Zhongshun...
Ever since Sun Shaozu blocked the door and yelled, who else would dare to lend him money?
That is to say, King Zhongshun had no taboos and was sure that he would not default on his debt, so he gave him eight thousand taels of silver at the Canton Fair.
They made an appointment to go out and return home at the end of the month, which was actually only half a month until the due date. However, the accountant of the palace heard that Jia She was imprisoned and was afraid that he would not have enough money by then, so he specially revised the book.
Feng, let Jia She make preparations early.
Jia She's previous plot against Jiao Shun was just to fill this hole.
But who would have thought that the old lady would be so partial to Jiao Shun, not only excommunicating Lai Wang and his wife in public, but also imprisoning him in a Buddhist hall!
As a result, it was too late to think of other ways to raise money.
If this makes King Zhongshun fall out...
Thinking of this, Jia She no longer cared about eating, got up and walked around anxiously in the Buddhist hall.
After a while, he suddenly asked: "How much money can your family raise during the Mid-Autumn Festival?"
"this……"
Mr.
The money I appropriated was just the day before yesterday... plus the old lady's birthday, there isn't much left."
"What are you talking about? I'm just asking you how much you can come up with!"
"If we don't keep the money on August 15th and wait for Qin Xian to send it to repair the yard, we can probably make up six or seven thousand taels."
"not enough!"
Jia She walked a few steps angrily, then suddenly turned around, stared at Mr.
!”
"this……"
Mrs.
"We must raise this money no matter what!"
Jia She gritted his teeth without any doubt and said: "Otherwise, Master, I will never spare you, a stupid woman, if a disaster is imminent!"
"Then, I'll discuss it with Lian's daughter-in-law..."
"No!"
As soon as Ms.
"
"where……"
Mrs. Xing then thought of Jiao Shun. After all, she didn't recognize many outsiders.
However, thinking that the two sides were already at odds, she quickly rejected the idea and instead thought about Jia Zhen. This nephew of the clan had always been close to the master, and he happened to make a lot of money by marrying a daughter-in-law. She could find him.
