[I forgot to mention that I have to be at full attendance this month, so I will write a letter to prove it first!]

But seeing Yuanyang being called away by the eldest wife, Ping'er and Xiren were all worried, but there were also some misfortunes among the maids, and Chunliu, who had replaced Siqi, was the leader among them.

She was waiting and looking forward to seeing Yuanyang's jokes, but after Yuanyang came back alone, he only talked quietly with Heping'er and couldn't see anything wrong.

Chunliu was disappointed and curious about what the eldest lady had said to Yuanyang, so when Mrs.

Pa~

Who would have thought that Mrs.

Take care of her, who would have thought that you, a yelling hooves, would actually ride on the master's head!"

Chun Liu was staggered unexpectedly, and when she regained her footing, she felt that half of her cheeks were burning. She covered her face and widened her eyes in disbelief, and blurted out, "Why do you blame me, madam? It's obviously you..."

"What, you still want to cheat on me?!"

Mrs. Xing interrupted her sharply, pointed at the courtyard door and shouted: "Today is a good day for Brother Zhen. I'm too lazy to get angry with you, why don't you hurry up and get back with that naughty bitch between your legs!"

Chunliu was humiliated in public like this, and felt ashamed and resentful for a moment. Moreover, it was the eldest lady who had clearly hinted to her that she might as well give the second girl some suffering, but now she was beaten back and blamed for being a slave and deceiving the master!

But she didn't dare to disobey her master, so she had to cover half of her face with a handkerchief and cry.

At this time, Mrs. Wang got the news and came out from inside. She said with half persuasion and half complaint: "Even if my sister-in-law wants to train the maid, she shouldn't choose this moment. If she doesn't, she will make the children laugh."

Mr.

Mrs. Wang just said casually and had no intention of getting involved in the family affairs of the eldest family, so she put the matter aside and invited Mrs.

Got an Aunt Xue.

After meeting each other, Ms.

Aunt Xue smiled and said: "The eldest lady knows that I am afraid of both heat and cold - you see, it is only a few steps away, and there is a basin of ice on the road, and there is sweat on my forehead, so I didn't plan to

I came here, but I suddenly had something to discuss with my sister, so I chased after her with a shy face."

Mrs. Wang interjected: "Actually, it doesn't matter, it's just that she can't keep it in her mind..."

After listening to what the two sisters said to each other, everyone realized that Baochai's cousins ​​were planning to go to Beijing after autumn, so the family sent letters in advance.

Aunt Xue thought that it would be difficult to drag her family to live in Rongguo Mansion, so she planned to discuss with her sister to have the old house carefully renovated, and then move to Zijin Street after the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Although Mrs. Wang couldn't bear to leave her, she thought that Baochai would not be able to stay in the Grand View Garden until next spring when the two little ones were engaged. It would be better to take care of and renovate the old house on Zijin Street first.

So he reluctantly agreed.

Then he strongly invited Aunt Xue to move to the Qingtang Cottage for the time being, so that the two sisters could spend the remaining time getting close to each other in the Grand View Garden.

Not to mention this

But when the maids outside saw Chunliu eating the first meal, they didn't know how she had offended the eldest lady. Only Xiuju immediately remembered Jiao Shun's promise. She was so happy that she couldn't help but run to the side hall and ask Jia Shun.

Yingchun described the scene just now with embarrassment.

After hearing this, Jia Yingchun was puzzled. Although she was an ostrich and could hide whenever possible, she was not a complete fool after all. Whose power was Chunliu relying on these days? She felt the same as Ming Jing.

.

It's obvious that they are a bunch of snakes and rats working together. Why did the master and the servant suddenly fall out against each other for no reason?

"How can you fall out for no reason!"

Although Xiuju didn't dare to reveal her affair with Jiao Shun, she still couldn't help showing off in a different way: "This is all thanks to Uncle Jiao. Last time I had a fight with Chunliu and was scolded by the girl again.

, I ran out in anger and happened to bump into Uncle Jiao, so I told him everything - although the girl is heartless, Uncle Jiao is nostalgic, and he promised to help the girl get rid of this trouble!"

When Jia Yingchun heard the words, she believed them to be true. Thinking that she had let down Brother Jiao because of her timidity, and now he was still willing to stand up for her, she felt moved and regretful at the same time. She couldn't help covering her face and sobbing.

Xiuju felt distressed and relieved at the same time. He took out the handkerchief and was about to wipe it with her when he suddenly heard someone shouting outside: "Madam, madam! What's terrible, that person surnamed Sun came to the door again."

Coming!"

Xun Sheng looked outside, but it was Siqi's grandmother, Wang Shanbao's family, who came looking for her.

Mrs.

?That person with the surname Sun is worthy of your screaming!"

Wang Shanbao's family slapped his thigh and said anxiously: "Who else could it be? It's Sun Shaozu who blocked the door and cursed in the street!"

"ah?!"

Mr. Xing suddenly changed his color: "He, why is he here?!"

Then he asked again: "What are you looking for me for? Where is the master?"

"Master is not at home. He went out just after you left!"

"That, that..."

Mrs.

Let’s talk about it when the master comes back!”

Although Wang Xifeng had been separated from her husband for many days, she still couldn't help but frown when her mother-in-law pushed this matter to Jia Lian, and subconsciously added: "Let Brother Shun go with you. If anything happens, I will help you."

A helper."

"Yes, yes!"

Mrs. Xing was also afraid that Jia Lian wouldn't be able to hold up the situation, so she hurriedly nodded in agreement.

…………

When Jia Lian heard that Sun Shaozu was here again, he was a little frightened as expected.

Not only did he recruit Jiao Shun to strengthen his courage, but he also specially borrowed about twenty healthy servants from the Ningguo Mansion, and then he went to the east to cross the courtyard in a mighty killing spree.

Following the base of the wall and arriving near the dark gate, I saw the tall Sun Shaozu standing on the steps with his hands behind his back, with no clear expression of emotion or anger on his wild black face.

Seeing his arrogant look, Jia Lian couldn't help but feel a little frightened, and subconsciously looked at Jiao Shun aside.

Jiao Shun didn't hesitate at all. He had thought clearly about the cause and effect on the way and concluded that Sun Shaozu was not here to provoke, so he stepped forward directly, cupped his hands and said with a smile: "I heard that General Sun was going to be promoted to the admiral of Jinmen. Now why not come here?"

Reporting on work in Beijing?"

A few months ago, Jiao Shun heard that Sun Shaozu had great luck and was going to be transferred to the newly established Jinmen Navy as a deputy general. Now that he saw him in the capital, it must have been done.

This guy surnamed Sun may look rude, but he is actually a good man, otherwise he would not have been able to get in touch with Jia She in the first place.

When he blocked the door and cursed in the street, it was purely out of despair that he broke the jar. It was a special situation. But now that he was high-spirited, how could he offend the Rongguo Mansion again and again?

Sure enough, before he finished speaking, Sun Shaozu's face was like a chrysanthemum smile. He raised his hands and said to him: "Deputy, I'm just deputy. Could it be that I am Chief Jiao? As expected, he is as young and promising as his name suggests."

ah!"

After saying that, he bowed deeply to Jia Lian and said in a naive voice: "Second Master, my grandson didn't know anything before. Thanks to Uncle Shi, he not only didn't blame me, but also recommended me to Taiwei Wang. Only then did my grandson become what he is today."

Scenery - nothing else, I came here specifically to plead guilty, I can beat you or scold me, it's all up to Uncle Shi to deal with you!"

The last sentence is rewinded to create a three-point singing tune.

In fact, he came here at the end of May. He had no intention of getting involved with the Rongguo Mansion anymore, and he had no intention of coming to apologize.

It wasn't until yesterday when he heard someone said that the Second Master Bao of Rongguo Mansion had an affair with His Majesty that he suddenly changed his mind.

Hearing that he was here to plead guilty, Jia Lian straightened his back immediately. He originally lowered his head and looked up at people, but now he raised his head and looked at people through his nostrils, and said in a sarcastic tone: "I'm not talking about you, you

This guy doesn't know how to praise me. What kind of family background do we have? How can we rely on you for a few small sums of money? But it caused a storm in the city, and the master was imprisoned in the small Buddhist hall for half a year!"

"Sun Mou is aware of his crime. Sun Mou is aware of his crime."

Sun Shaozu bowed repeatedly and saw that Jia Lian had a sullen face. He turned around and walked a few steps to a carriage. He rolled up the curtain and said, "I have prepared a few boxes of small gifts today, and I hope that the master and the second master will accept them."

As he said that, he opened the boxes in the car one by one.

I have to say that this man surnamed Sun is really an honest man. The carriage is packed full of silver ingots. After a rough scan, there are about four to five thousand taels.

Got~

This time I don't have to let Mr. Xing pry any more.

Jiao Shun was determined to seize it directly, so as not to find it in Jia She's hands and make it difficult to ask for it.

But just thinking about it, not to mention directly deducting money in front of outsiders, it is equivalent to completely breaking up with Rongguo Mansion; even if he doesn't care about this, he currently has no ability to do so with his own strength.

.

In the final analysis, we still have to rely on King Zhongshun's IOU and Jia Mu's intimidating power in Rongguo Mansion.

But Jiao Shun's mind was spinning, and Jia Lian was also confused.

When he first saw the white money, the arrogance on his face immediately turned into greed. Because he has been so poor recently, he almost stretched out his hands in his eyes.

But then I thought about it, this was all money given to Jia She. With my insatiable temper, I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to save even a penny, and immediately felt boring again.

Although his eyes could not help but look at the silver, his mouth became even colder: "What are you doing, showing off to us? In recent years, the second master has handled more than a million dollars of silver, and you are the only one... haha

~"

Sun Shaozu obviously didn't expect this. He quickly closed the box and hunched over his waist and said: "Sun just wanted to apologize for making the second master laugh, and he didn't mean to do anything for his own sake."

Seeing that there was no more money to see, Jia Lian lost interest even more. He waved his hand and said, "Our master is not at home today. If you need anything, come back tomorrow."

"this……"

Sun Shaozu looked at Jiao Shun with a troubled expression, obviously hoping that Jiao Shun could help and say a few good words.

Although Jiao Shun didn't have a good impression of these two people, he was worried that Sun Shaozu would be humiliated, so he took back the money and suffered losses for himself, so he made a pun and said with a smile: "Since General Sun wants to see you,

You are a true Buddha, but why don’t you pay homage to the Bodhisattva first?”

After saying that, he winked at Sun Shaozu again.

Sun Shaozong suddenly understood. While cursing in his heart that the upper beam was not straight and the lower beam was crooked, he hurriedly took out five hundred taels of silver notes from his arms, put them in his sleeves and sent them to Jia Lian. He said with a smile on his face: "I'm sorry, Mr. Sun."

I came in a hurry today, but I have a small gift to offer later, and another small gift to offer."

Jia Lian rolled it into his hand with ease and familiarity. After roughly confirming the denomination, his face immediately softened a lot and sighed: "Come on, this matter was not so easy to expose originally, but who made me feel soft-hearted, Second Master?"

Woolen cloth?"

With that said, he ordered Qin Xian on the side: "Send someone to find the master quickly, and tell him that General Sun is here to plead guilty."

Then he called Jiao Shun and Sun Shaozu: "This is not the place to talk. Let's go into the mansion and talk."

The three of them entered the mansion and sat down separately. They waited for half an hour before Jia She came back.

Master Enhou had obviously heard about the money apology. He didn't mention anything about the previous quarrel. He called you "uncle" and me "nephew" to Sun Shaozu without any grudge at all.

gap.

The guests and hosts saw off Sun Shaozu and Jiao Shun happily.

He couldn't wait to order someone to bring in the boxes containing the silver, and he and Jia Lian counted them one by one.

When it was confirmed that the total amount was five thousand taels of silver, Jia She's joyful mood suddenly dampened. It was not because he felt it was too little, but because he thought of Jiao Shun's double entendre when he saw off the guests.

He just got the money and hasn't covered it yet. How can he be willing to use it to pay off the debt?

Besides...

That Jiao Shun was born as a slave in his house. What is the difference between the slave's money and the master's? Flowers are just spent, do you still need to pay them back?!

But if he wanted to default on his debt, the IOU in Jiao Shun's hand was not false. If he really wanted to let his family know that he had borrowed money from King Zhongshun, he would probably be imprisoned in the small Buddhist hall again.

Kuang Jiaoshun is now the son-in-law of the Shi family, and the old lady is afraid that she will help him even more...

When he was in a dilemma, he suddenly heard Jia Lian sighing from the side: "This is really unexpected. Uncle Wang's transfer of him to the southeast was just a temporary measure. Whoever thought of it would let a man named Sun end up in such a fat position."

Jia She's DNA suddenly moved, and he quickly asked: "What's the fat job? Didn't he just go to the navy to be a deputy general?"

"The master doesn't know something."

Jia Lian also listened to Jiao Shun's analysis just now, and now he used what he learned to sell: "I heard that when the Jinmen Navy is completed, merchant ships going to and from Goryeo and Fusang will be subject to its control and inspection. I can say less this year."

Make tens of thousands of taels of silver! If the market is good, you may not be able to win even a hundred thousand taels of silver!"

One hundred thousand taels?!
Chapter completed!
