Chapter 257
【The typo has not been changed, read it again in ten minutes】
Not to mention Jiao Shun, even Youshi didn't expect that You Sanjie would be so timid.
Now that I have the idea of destroying my relatives for justice, I wish Jiao Shun could make her feel cold!
But after all, she was not a cruel and ruthless person like Wang Xifeng. She just scolded You Sanjie in shame and anger.
Afterwards, I talked to Sister You San again.
I originally wanted to scold her and vent my anger, but this foolish girl was really a good person. She was patient at first, but she started to retort after a few words. She relied on her weaknesses and even had a big argument with Youshi.
One.
The two sisters have since been angry and stopped interacting.
Not to mention this.
But after Xing Zhong had been greedy for Jiao Shun's money, he was frightened all day long, fearing that he would investigate and reveal his hiding.
But six or seven days passed in a flash, and there was no movement. Xing Zhong's heart, which was touching his throat, gradually fell.
And it not only fell down, but also became alive.
The money he deducted at that time was actually an integer. In addition to the seven hundred taels given to Xing's family, Xing Zhong also secretly ignored 300 taels - plus the rewards from Jiao Shun on weekdays, he collected a total of them.
More than four hundred taels.
Because of his timidity, Xing Zhong did not dare to make the money rashly, but now he is very focused and plans to use it to buy some industries, so he will gain a long foothold in the capital in the future.
He initially planned to plan a shop and flowed hard, but as soon as he inquired about the market conditions in the capital, he immediately gave up this idea.
So he settled down and began to ask for the fields and houses.
The capital is surrounded by dense population, and many royal palaces and nobles have been given property, so the fields have long been divided.
As for the house...
After a few days of visit, he found a suitable one, saying that he was an official from another office, and was eager to get out of business. The house that he had entered was only sold for 400 taels.
If it is normal, such a house starts at least 500 taels!
Seeing that Xing Zhong was getting cheap, he hurriedly passed by and thought that even if he couldn't live, he could make a profit of nearly 100 taels in a few days.
On the sixth day of the lunar month, he got the deed. The couple seemed to be happy, but Jiao Shun suddenly sent someone to invite him.
Xing Zhong was a little beaten. When he went to the Jiao family tremblingly, after the guest and host took a seat, Jiao Shun smiled and pushed two hundred taels of silver over, and said with a smile: "I heard that the two have been handed over? Come to our yamen.
I'm busy with things, thanks to Uncle Xing's help to take care of me this month. These 200 taels are a saying to you, don't refuse."
Xing Zhong was overjoyed when he heard this and was about to thank him.
But Jiao Shun pushed another fifty taels of silver: "As for these fifty taels, I wanted to ask Mr. Xing to arrange another set of tables for me, and then invite the generals of Yunnan and Guizhou, Rong Ge'er from the East Mansion,
Brother Qiang, on the one hand, we celebrate the smooth and smooth harvest of our business, and on the other hand, we also discuss the next charter."
The smile on Xing Zhong's face froze immediately.
What he feared most was his previous family and his next family to communicate in person.
But it is reasonable for Jiao Shun to treat guests to discuss matters. How could he think of it for a moment?
At the moment, I was anxious and uneasy, and I even forgot how I came out of the Jiao family.
But when the Jiao family was blown by the night wind, he shivered twice. After waking up, he had the first thought to go to find his sister Xing.
However, he didn't know that Xing was the initiator of this matter and wanted to expose the matter as soon as possible. So what serious ideas would be given to him?
Therefore, he pretended to be confident and said, "He is from our mansion. Can you dare to turn against our master for this little money? Just go there, you have to be the master. Don't lose the face of the master and me.
!”
Although Xing Zhong felt that it was inappropriate, he felt a little at ease when he saw his sister so confident. He also thought that it was a banquet, but it might not involve the accounts.
So I hurriedly booked a large table to wait for the banquet in Wangjiang Building near the Prison God Temple, and specially invited a small team to sing music to set off the atmosphere. Only then did I know that the generals from Yunnan and Guizhou, Jia Rong and Jia Qiang from Yunnan and Guizhou
The two next homes went to the banquet on the evening of the eighth day of October.
…………
It was the eighth day of the lunar month in a blink of an eye.
After everyone gathered together, Uncle Xing really gave him enough face and pushed him to sit beside Jiao Shun, with the signboard slightly higher than Jia Rong and Jia Qiang.
During the meal, he had a lot of fun. Seeing that the matter was almost discussed, Xing Zhong gradually relaxed in his heart.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, Jia Qiang stood up from the table with a few drunken smells, and bowed: "Everyone, everyone! It is the first time I have handled such a big deal, and it is all about your understanding, so it's so easy.
Hold on—I'll give you another cup to everyone!"
Everyone agreed, and Xing Zhong also picked up the wine glass and drank it all.
But before he could put down the wine glass, he heard Jia Qiang say, "It's just that I'm a little uneasy after all, so I want to borrow the shipping documents to check it so as not to make any mistakes. It's not good in front of my uncle.
Explain.”
Xing Zhong was so hungry that he didn't throw his wine glass to the ground.
Seeing that the soldiers who were in charge of the Beijing camp were about to pat their chests and respond, he was eagerly wise and said, "What's the difficulty? All the goods I handle are recorded. I'll send them to my brother tomorrow.
”
As soon as he spoke, the soldiers did not say anything else.
However, without waiting for Xing Zhongsong to breathe, Jiao Shun smiled and continued: "It's the extreme, it's the extreme. If you want to compare, you can compare the three companies together, so that you can be clear at a glance and no omissions."
He was involved in the military man's relationship, and he was in charge of the Ministry of Works and the responsibilities of the middle-aged man. Of course, the military man had nothing to say about this.
After that, everyone was still cheering and having fun.
Only Xing Zhongru was sitting on pins and needles, and his stomach was filled with alcohol and turned into cold sweat along his pores.
When the banquet ended after drinking, Jiao Shun deliberately kept him, which made Xing Zhong even more frightened.
"Mr. Xing."
Seeing that there was no one around, Jiao Shun changed his name seriously: "You were too uncautious just now. Brother Qiang said he wanted to check the documents. Maybe he just couldn't trust us. We have a clear conscience and let him check it.
Just go!
"But you rush to come out to intercept the lords. Are you rushing to make them suspicious? That's fine, I'm afraid I'll have to check it for a while before I can share the accounts. It's useless, but I'm better!"
Only then did Xing Zhong realize what was wrong with him just now.
But he really has no other way except to plug in a jar!
Looking up at Jiao Shun, Xing Zhong swallowed hard and said, "It's mine, no, okay..."
Jiao Shun seemed to have noticed something at this time, staring at him and said suspiciously: "Mr. Xing, you shouldn't be really..."
Plop ~
Before Jiao Shun could explain his words, Xing Zhong had already knocked on the ground and asked anxiously: "Please ask Mr. Jiao to raise his hands and spare me this time! I, I was also forced by my sister and the master.
There is really no way, so...
"You are really greedy for money?"
Jiao Shun looked shocked: "But what does this have to do with the master?!"
"The master is anxious to use the money, and I heard that I took over your errands, so I just..."
Bang ~
Jiao Shun slapped the table with half of his slap, gritting his teeth and being extremely angry: "I just borrowed him five thousand taels for emergency treatment. It's okay if he is not grateful, why dare to plot against me like this?!"
As he said that, he walked out with his sleeves and said, "Stop, I must go to the old lady to sue this time, otherwise he will be more and more arrogant in the future!"
"No, don't!"
Xing Zhongyuan also pointed out that Jia She could have some intimidation and turned this big thing into small things. Who would have thought that when Jia She mentioned this, Jiao Shun became more and more annoyed.
And until now, he realized that Jiao Shun had borrowed 5,000 taels of money to Jia She for emergency treatment.
The real money was taken out, and the backhand was plotted again. Who can handle it?
While Xing Zhong secretly scolded his sister and husband for being shameless in his heart, he flew over and hugged Jiao Shun's thighs and begged repeatedly: "Uncle Jiao, Mr. Jiao, please give up your hands and spare me this time, I'll go back
I don’t dare to do it anymore, I don’t dare to do it anymore!"
As he talked, tears started to flow.
Jiao Shun struggled a few times but couldn't get out. He seemed to see him being really pitiful, and sighed helplessly: "Let's do this, you go with me to confront the eldest lady first, if it's really their greed.
, I don't cure your sins, just pretend we have never dealt with you."
Xing Zhong was overjoyed when he heard this, but then he thought about it and said, "I, I have three hundred taels there too - don't worry, I will definitely return the money!"
"It should be six hundred taels! Do you want to miss the hard money?!"
"Yes, yes, yes, yes, six hundred taels!"
Xing Zhong changed the price in a panic, but thought in his mind that if he could delay the house for a few days and sell it at a high price, he would still be able to pay a hundred taels of silver. Finally, he did not have a job in vain.
Because it was getting late, the two agreed to go to confront Xing the next morning.
There was nothing to say that night.
The next day, Jiao Shun got up from Xing's bed - the two of them stayed in the side courtyard of the East Mansion - went home to change their clothes, and followed Xing Zhong to find Xing's face.
Xing Zhong seemed to have not slept all night yesterday. Now he is becoming more and more depressed. He doesn't dare to look at his sister with a rosy and refreshed face. He lowered his head and stumbled and told the situation that the incident had happened. He begged Xing to give the seven
A hundred taels of silver was spit out.
Unexpectedly, Xing turned his back on his face and denied it in front of him: "What are seven hundred taels, eight hundred taels? Did my brother get confused yesterday?"
"you!"
Xing Zhongran suddenly looked up and stared at Xing's trembling voice, "You, what do you mean by saying this?! It's clear that you and the master..."
"elder brother!"
Xing cut off his words and said seriously: "The master is praying for blessings in the Buddhist temple. Have you ever seen you? When did you take your money?!"
"Yes, yes, yes...as you said for Te!"
Xing Zhong bit his tongue in panic, but hurriedly sucked the blood on his tongue and continued to prove: "The silver was sent by me for twenty-seven, and you ordered it in person!"
Xing asked with a stern face: "Does my brother say this? Is there a certificate? Is there a loan note?"
Three questions in a row, Xing Zhong was sweating profusely and speechless.
Just as I couldn't help but say a few vulgar words, Jiao Shun grabbed his neck and pushed him to the ground with force, and said, "I really saw the past relationship that I sent this way.
He is kind, but he doesn't expect to encounter something like you guys!"
As he said that, he threatened with a serious face: "I am too lazy to ask again. Before the fifteenth month, you can take 1,300 taels of silver to make up for the deficit. If you lose a penny, we
Then follow the Tianfu to argue right and wrong!”
Xing Zhong just plucked up some courage, but he immediately became depressed again.
He begged for mercy blindly and begged Xing.
However, Xing refused to admit it in a word, saying that it had nothing to do with him, and even called a shrew and acted as closing the door and seeing off the guests.
Xing Zhong left Houzhai in a daze and was about to argue with Jiao Shun for a few more words. Unexpectedly, Uncle Jiao snorted coldly and went back without looking back.
Xing Zhong looked at his back and it took him a long time to go back home like a walking corpse.
As soon as he told his wife about the matter, Xing's wife was immediately panicked and complained that she shouldn't have believed her aunt incorrectly, and she even shouldn't have come to the capital at all!
Xing Zhong was a little annoyed after being said a few words, so he stared at him and retorted: "When you used to buy a house with money, didn't you think you were too greedy and it was hard to touch?"
Speaking of this house, Xing Zhong suddenly jumped three feet high and ran out without saying a word.
Xing's wife was frightened and thought he was crazy about gaining and losing. She hurriedly chased her out and stopped her, and then shouted to ask her neighbors to help her doctor.
"What are you stopping me from doing?!"
Xing Zhong was anxious and cursed: "I'm going to invite the senior citizen. I'm going to sell the house quickly. At least we can get five or six hundred taels first and pay a portion to ask for a grace period!"
When Xing's wife heard this, she stopped stopping her, but followed Xing Zhong to the shop where she specialized in buying and selling the mansion.
When they wanted to wait for them to lead the shop to find their newly bought house to explore on-site, they saw an official seal posted on the gate.
Xing Zhong was stunned at that time, but Xing's wife urged him to go to the county government to investigate the truth. He spent ten taels of silver to clear the matter, and then he realized that the silver was involved in the lawsuit for property disputes.
As a result, the victim felt that the chance of winning was not great, so she lied that she was going to work as an official in another place. She bribed the neighbors to help deceive and sold the house to Xing Zhong.
Now that the matter has been broken, his two brothers sued the county government, so a person sent someone to the door to post a seal.
The clerk also comforted Xing Zhong, saying that if you are willing to make money in such a situation, you can be awarded the house in three to five months.
After hearing this, Xing Zhong was completely stunned.
Where can he have any money? Where can he have three or five months to wait?!
Now that the house cannot move easily, isn’t there only the more than 200 taels of silver that Jiao Shungang gave?
He can't take the money he just gave as sincerity and ask Mr. Jiao to give him one or two graces, right?
If this is the case, I am afraid I will be spit out!
Xing Zhong seemed to have his muscles and bones removed for a moment, and he was pulled by his wife as if he was dragging him to death, so he finally returned home.
The couple sat at home wither and turned their heads white after almost all night.
