1336. Chapter 1336 Murder for money (3)
While Mr. Fu was recuperating, Fu Ran went out to visit her former friends, and of course some students came to visit her. So the family has been quite lively in the past half month.
That morning, a matchmaker came to the house.
Xu was a little surprised. Except for Fu Jingze, there was no one who was married at the right age in her family. However, Fu Jingze is now a Jinshi in the two list and is about to become an official, and ordinary people look down on him.
Although I guessed that the matchmaker was here to say kinship to Fu Jingze, my expression was still a bit subtle when I knew who the matchmaker was asking for.
She had no right to make a decision on this matter, so Xu came over to ask Fu Ran what she meant: "Aunt, matchmaker Ning came to tell her third brother about her dear, and was she talking about the girl from the Shan family?"
“Single family, which single family?
Xu explained: "My aunt has been in the capital and I don't know that the Shan family has only started in recent years. They are doing a big business now, and even the Lei family has been suppressed."
Fu Ran smiled and said, "It's just that Pingzhou has changed so much in a few years."
The Lei family was able to become the richest man in Pingzhou in the past because of the Qi family's power. Now the Qi family is filial and calm down for the time being. The Lei family is not as powerful as before, but it is common for the world to rise and fall.
Xu said respectfully: "The matchmaker said that if the aunt agreed to this marriage, the Shan family would give the girl a dowry of 64 and carry the dowry, and give her another 50,000 taels of silver."
The Fu family is now short of money, and this condition can be said to be their weakness.
Fu Ran sneered and said, "I dare to use money to smash me. I thought it would be great if I had a few stinky money, so I coaxed her out for me."
This result was also expected by Xu. Fu Ran treated Fu Jingze like a parent-child and wouldn't let him marry a merchant girl: "I'll send her away now."
The Shan family's work was too big, and the news spread throughout Pingzhou in less than a day. Some people said that Fu Ran was stupid and didn't want the money to deliver it to her door; some people said that Fu Ran pretended to be noble and kept her wealth from her family in order to gain a good reputation, which made Fu Jingze suffer.
It would be fine for the others. After Fu Laogen learned the news, he wanted to agree to Fu Ran that the dormitory was for Fu Ran. For this reason, he and Chen went to Fu's house to find Fu Jingze, but unfortunately Fu Jingze didn't want to see them at all.
Fu Jingze was upset with Fu Laogen and Chen. He went to look for Fu Ran and asked, "Mom, when will we go back to the capital?"
"Do you want to go back to the capital?"
Fu Jingze nodded and said, "I want to return to the capital earlier. It's so messy here that it's annoying. Mom, you must miss Brother Fu, right?"
When Fu Ge'er mentioned, Fu Ran couldn't help but smile: "The ship has been settled, and we will return to Beijing the next day."
Life in the capital is so pure, unlike here that there are many things to do.
Fu Jingze breathed a sigh of relief.
Fu Ran smiled and said, "Your biological father and mother came to find you for the sake of the Shan family. They must have wanted you to marry the girl from the Shan family. Aze, I haven't asked you about this yet, what do you think?"
Fu Jingze shook his head and said, "Mom, I will listen to you. Since you reject the Shan family, you must think that the Shan family girl is not suitable for me."
Fu Ran said with a nod, "It's really not suitable. I asked your sister-in-law. The girl from the Shan family is 18 years old this year. She has a very fierce personality since she was a child. Moreover, this girl's aesthetic taste is different from ordinary people. She likes gold jewelry very much and is always jewel-like every time she goes out."
It’s not that the Shan family’s girls are not good, but that they are not suitable for Fu Jingze. Fu Jingze will go on a career in the future, and marrying such a wife will make people laugh. Of course, Fu Ran would not agree to this marriage. If Fu Laogen and his wife had not come here, she would not have mentioned this matter to Fu Jingze.
Fu Jingze shivered and said, "Mom, I don't want to marry such a person."
Fu Ran nodded and said, "I will marry you a well-educated girl, but getting married requires a good family. The girl I like will definitely not have so many dowry in the family."
Fu Jingze hurriedly said, "Just be a good match, you don't need so many dowry."
The woman has too many dowry and will be ridiculed as a soft-hearted person. His family is not as poor as a living, so why bother to bear such a reputation?
On the evening of that day, a man came to the door and said he wanted to see Fu Ran.
The concierge reported the matter to Fu Ran, and he said, "Grandma, the other party said that he came from the capital and told the gentleman that he had important things."
Zhu'er frowned and said, "Sir, I'll go see you and see who the other party is?"
"You go!"
When Zhu'er saw Lao Jiu, she asked with confusion: "Whose servant are you? Why have I never seen him?"
Lao Jiu handed a bell to Zhuier.
Seeing this bell Piaoer's face changed drastically, how could this bell be the one from Brother Fu to get into this person?
Lao Jiu knew that he had a misunderstanding when he saw her expression, and quickly explained: "This bell belongs to my little master..."
Zhu'er looked at him and asked, "Are you a subordinate of the adults? Why haven't I seen you before?"
Lao Jiu said, "I have been working outside and rarely come home. It is normal for you to have never seen me. Aunt Zhuier, I hope you can take your leave. I have something extremely important to tell you."
Seeing that the other party's eyes were sincere, Zhuier nodded and asked the doorman to go out with an old lady: "Can you tell me your identity now?"
A quarter of an hour later, Lao Jiu left the Fu family. He did everything he should do, and Fu Ran solved the rest by himself.
Fu Ran saw Zhuier enter the house and asked, "Who is the person coming? What did you tell you?"
Zhu'er told her the identity of Lao Jiu: "Since I heard that you were going back to Pingzhou, the girl's right eyelid kept twitching. She was worried that something might happen to you, so she begged her son-in-law to send someone to Pingzhou."
Fu Ran smiled and said, "This child is just worrying. What can happen to me? He also asked Jingen to send someone here."
Zhu'er breathed a deep breath and said, "Sir, Lao Jiu said that he saw Luo meet Aunt Yin early this morning and gave Aunt Yin a small bag of things."
Aunt Yin is the child of the Fu family. Because the food she cooked was very suitable for the taste of Mrs. Fu, she was transferred to the kitchen. Mr. Fu was used to the food she cooked, so she brought her over when she moved here.
Fu Ran's face suddenly changed: "What did Luo Shi ask her for?"
Zhu'er shook her head and said, "Because Lao Jiu didn't hear what they were saying at that time, but it was definitely not a good thing."
If you are involved with Luo, that is definitely not a good thing. Fu Ran sneered and said, "That package is probably poison. Luo is trying to poison Aunt Yin to death."
This is really possible, but Zhu'er can't understand: "Why did Aunt Yin listen to her?"
Fu Ran said: "Aunt Yin should have a handle in her hands, and she obeyed when she threatened her."
"Sir, what's the benefit of her killing you?"
Fu Ran chuckled and said, "I asked you to push her out that day. She must have hated me in her heart by those people. If I poison me to death, I can avenge my revenge on that day. The most important thing is that if I die, then the property under my name will fall into her hands."
The main thing is to seek wealth, and revenge is by the way.
Zhu'er shook her head and said, "Sir, you have Young Master Jingze. Even if you have an accident, it's not her turn to have any assets."
Fu Ran shook her head and said, "No, if Jingze's temperament is not helpful to him, my property in my name will definitely fall into the hands of the poisonous woman. Kough, thanks to Qingshu this time, otherwise I would have died in her hands."
