Chapter 1199

She had known for a long time that the Lin family from the Zhou family had come, but she guessed that the two families came to borrow money, and they hid at home because they were afraid that their money would not be guaranteed.

But girl Xiaoji ran to call her, saying that Xiaoyu asked her to come over, and Mrs. Chen immediately understood that girl Xiaoyu is not good at scolding, so she should come and scold her.Then why should she be polite, just scold her.

Zhou Hu was stunned by the scolding, looked at the closed door and asked, "Who is this? Why are you so ignorant of etiquette?"

"Bah, Zhou family, you are not ashamed to say this, who is the one who doesn't understand etiquette?" After cursing, Mrs. Chen said proudly: "Who is this old lady? My old lady is Mrs. Gu Chen, a scholar of the new science department. My uncle’s aunt. Do you remember my nephew, Gu Dexing?

"Haha, I'm not bragging. My nephew is really promising. Others didn't pass the examination as a scholar from their teens until they entered the soil. He passed the entrance examination in his early twenties. What kind of fate is this? My future nephew and daughter-in-law are also filial, and they often bring things to my house. Some time ago, I was afraid that I would be tired, so she specially sent me a box of bird's nest."

"Do you know what bird's nest is? It is a precious thing that only the royal relatives can eat..."

With a squeak, Gu Jinli opened the door of the wing room, smiled at Mrs. Chen, "Come in first, auntie."

Come in and blow.

Then he said to Zezi who came over to see the situation: "Tell brother, it's fine here, and I will leave the affairs of the living room to him."

Zezi is here, the eldest brother must have rushed back from Uncle Shang's house, so she can rest assured.

The eldest brother said last night that he was going to Uncle Shang's house this morning, and asked Uncle Shang not to lend the money out, but to wait a few days before talking.

After hearing this, Zezi nodded, turned around and went back to the main room.

The men from the Zhou family wanted to run over to see, but unfortunately they were caught by Feng Lian and Erqing and almost fell down.

The two boys of the Zhou family were a little angry. They just heard Zhou Hu's voice, worried about her, and wanted to go over to have a look. It's abominable that this servant of the Gu family tripped them up like this.

However, the third grandfather and Gu Dashan had already told them that the wing room on the right was a place for entertaining female guests, so they were told not to go there.

But they still want to go and see, what to see?See how your mother was scolded?
Zhou Dalang finally couldn't sit still, he stood up, grabbed his two cousins ​​with one hand, and said, "Second brother and third brother, Aunt Gu is a good tempered person, Second Aunt will be fine."

Zhou Zhoulang and Zhou Zhoulang were very unhappy, but thinking that Zhou Dalang's parents died while fleeing famine, his marriage was pinched by his parents, and he would be single until they married a wife, so he was happy again.

Gu Jin'an took a look at Zhou Dalang, and finally felt that the old Zhou's family could still be saved.

……

Not long after, Er Qing returned to the wing room and nodded to Gu Jinli.

Mrs. Zhou Hu was still angry, and said to Mrs. Chen: "Gu family brothers and sisters, my sister-in-law knows that your family is prosperous, but you can't just curse people just because you are rich, right?"

"Heh, that's you looking for scolding!" Who was Chen's quarrel afraid of?It is to expose Zhou Hu's mercilessly: "It's fine to borrow money if you want, but you can't take the opportunity to make other crooked ideas, and even show the elders' genealogy. We can't stand it if you show it."

Zhou Hu's face turned red when she was told about her thoughts, but she didn't want to make a fuss too stiff, so she looked at Cui and said, "Sister-in-law of the Gu family, I know that your family's life is better, it's..."

"My family's good life is also earned through hard work." Cui is not stupid, knowing that Zhou Hu's secretive intentions are shady, she is very angry, and she doesn't want to give Zhou Hu a chance to talk nonsense.

It was not easy for her two daughters to get married, so she just slept more peacefully because of this, is Zhou Hu trying to make her insomnia?
Gu Jinli smiled, Mother, not bad, I just want to show this kind of momentum, living in the countryside, splashing a little is much better than being silent.

Mrs. Zhou Hu was stunned and choked. Knowing that she really made Mrs. Cui angry, she didn't dare to say some stinging words in secret, but cried: "Sister-in-law Gu, the siblings know that they can't speak , but your family must lend us money, otherwise my family will be beheaded by the government."

Zhou Hu had already done the calculations, so he asked Cui to borrow 200 taels of silver, 50 taels to pay taxes, 50 taels to build a new house, 50 taels to his two sons for daughter-in-law and to buy land, and the rest to use do business.

She didn't believe it anymore, if the Gu family could start a business, so could her family.Besides, the Gu family is so rich, so they shouldn't care about the 200 taels of silver. After she borrowed the money, if she didn't pay it back for ten or eight years, the Gu family should forget about it.

It's a pity that she thought too well, Gu Jinli said: "Money, my family can't borrow it."

"Why?!" Zhou Hu was anxious, staring at Gu Jinli, you girl can't shut up?

Gu Jinli said, no.

"The folks in ten miles and eight towns don't have any money to pay taxes, and you two came here in a big way. Now I don't know how many people in the village are watching. If my family lends you money, within half a day, the entire Dafeng Village They will be surrounded by people, and they will come to borrow money from my family, will my family borrow it or not?"

He said again: "This is still the second thing. The most important thing is that those wicked people with bad intentions see my family lending so much money and gather people to come to the village to do evil and steal money. What should I do? The money is not revealed, especially at this time, so My family can’t lend you any money, so your trip was for nothing.”

This hole cannot be opened, once it is opened, it will bring endless troubles.

"Actually, if your two families secretly sent someone to send a letter to the third grandpa and third grandma, they could lend you the money quietly, but now that there is such a big commotion, in order to protect ourselves, we can't even lend you money even if we want to."

……

In the living room, Gu Jinan said the same thing.

After listening to Mr. Zhou, he was stunned, and said angrily, "Boy of the Gu family, what do you mean by that, you just don't want to borrow it?"

Gu Jin'an nodded: "In order to keep the family safe and not be targeted by folks from all over the world, my family cannot borrow this money."

"You!" Elder Zhou was extremely angry. He cried a lot, made a scene, and finally got such words. Isn't that for nothing?
No, this is life-saving money. Mr. Zhou didn't want to return empty-handed, so he looked at the third grandma and said, "Sister-in-law Gu, I know you are kind-hearted, you have to help us, we don't want too much, 50 taels for a family will be enough." .As long as 100 taels of silver can save the lives of our two families, it is a great blessing. Maybe you will find your family fortune if you do this kind deed."

The third grandpa and the third grandma were inquiring about Gu Fuya's family when they were fleeing famine, so Zhou Laolin always knew about it.

The third grandma was taken aback, thinking of Fuya's family, her eyes turned red, but she shook her head and said, "No, I can't lend you this money."

It was already a big mistake for her to let Zhou Lin's family in. After Erqing girl came to remind her, if she still loaned out the money, it would be a mistake.

Fuya is very important, but the Dashan family is also very important to her.

Gu Jin'an didn't want the third grandma to be in trouble, so he gave the second elder Zhou Lin a certain word: "Don't worry, Zhou Laolin. Although my family can't lend you money, there are people in Tianfu County who can lend you money."

He talked about opening a new bank in the county to lend money to farmers to pay taxes.
