The red building is so arrogant

Chapter 233

While Jiao Shun rushed to the East Mansion, the birthday banquet finally came to an end.

Everyone didn't show it on the face, but they couldn't help talking about all kinds of things at noon when they got home.

Not to mention others.

But when the cousins ​​Jia Yingchun and Xing Xiuyan returned home, Xing Xiuyan was in a better mood, but Yingchun hid in the room and wept endlessly. No matter how Siqi and Xiuju tried to persuade them, even taking out the "Taishang Induction Sutra" was of no avail.

With Siqi's fiery temper, how could he endure such entanglements?

Thinking of the scene during the day, he immediately gritted his teeth and went to the Xingxiu smoke house in the west, and pressed him with a gun and a stick.

But no matter how much Siqi pressed him, Xing Xiuyan bit him to death and refused to tell the truth.

The reason why she told Jia Yingchun about this before was because she couldn't bear to be kept in the dark, and secondly, she hoped that Jia Yingchun would pass the news to Jiao Shun, but she never wanted to spread the word.

Otherwise, if this matter gets to my aunt, I'm afraid...

"Miss Xing, Miss Xing!"

Just thinking of this, someone called outside suddenly, Xing Xiuyan went out to have a look, but it was the Xing family who sent someone to invite her.

Xing Xiuyan's face immediately lost color, and he thought it was something wrong.

As a result, when he arrived at the Dongkua courtyard, he was grabbed by Mrs. Xing and scolded a few times, only to realize that he was just venting his anger.

besides……

"From today onwards, stay away from Jiao Shun, and you must never have any contact with him again!" Gritting her teeth, Xing said, "I was deceived by this slave who betrayed the master before, but now I realize that this guy is not a real person. good stuff!"

It was obvious that she intended to deceive people and was counterattacked, but she had the nerve to say it so confidently.

In the past, Xing Xiuyan would have secretly rejoiced when she heard this remark, but now she knows what her aunt said because Jia Amnesty wanted to 'sell' herself to a merchant's house.

Everything is afraid of comparison.

With Jiao Shun as a reference point, the son of a merchant who is willing to spend a lot of money to cling to Jia Amnesty seems to be out of place.

What's more, if you are a young talent who has become a weapon, you don't need to cling to him like this. Those who need to spend money to get their way are mostly...

Thinking of this, Xing Xiuyan naturally resisted in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it on the surface, so he could only answer ambiguously.

He was thinking about how to get out, but suddenly the steward came to report that a servant of the loyal Wang family asked to see the Elder Master, and heard that the Elder Master was retreating in the Buddhist hall, left a letter and left.

Hearing that it was King Zhongshun who sent someone to come, Xing naturally didn't dare to neglect, and hurriedly ordered someone to fetch it, and personally delivered it to the Buddhist hall along with the dinner for the evening.

Entering the Buddhist hall, I saw ink stains and white paper all over the floor. Several women were wiping it with bitter faces, but Jia She was lying on all fours in front of the Buddha statue, with one foot even up on the lotus platform, and kept teasing Avalokitesvara. Bodhisattva's calf.

"Ma'am."

Seeing that Mrs. Xing came to deliver the meal, the woman who was the leader hurriedly got up and told everyone to avoid her. At the same time, she explained to Mrs. Xing: "The old lady has ordered that the visit should not exceed a quarter of an hour. The old slave will come to inform you when the time comes."

Ready to leave.

But after taking two steps, I remembered something, turned back and whispered: "By the way, the old lady also explained that if the copying and reciting are not enough, you will not be able to leave this place after a hundred days. My wife still persuades the old man to write it anyway. Write it down and think about it.”

Mrs. Xing agreed, and after all the women had left, she came closer and put the food box on the desk.

rub~
Before Mrs. Xing could speak, Jia Amnesty sprang to his feet, baring his teeth and waving his claws, cursing: "What a fool, I just told you that you showed your truth in front of others. Master, all the good ideas I came up with, made you stupid!" Wife is ruined!"

As he said, he grabbed half of Xing's collar, and raised his fist to punch that Huermei's face.

Mrs. Xing hurriedly covered her face with her hands, and said in a hurry: "Master, please forgive me, please forgive me, this matter has nothing to do with me! As soon as I started a conversation with Lian's daughter-in-law, the old lady called the whole family over, so there was no time left Leak?!"

"Ok?"

Jia Amnesty eased his fist, and said suspiciously: "God knows this matter, you know it, I know it, if it weren't for you, who would have leaked the news? You stupid woman, don't you want to coax me?!"

As he spoke, he yanked Xing's collar fiercely, tearing half of it white and greasy.

"How dare I lie to the master?! It must be, it must be..."

Subconsciously, Xing wanted to evade it, but remembered that only she and Jia She knew about it. If she wanted to shirk, wouldn't she just blame Jia She?
Immediately, he hurriedly stopped talking.

Jia Amnesty stared at her for a while, and also felt that she would not have the courage to lie to him, so he threw her away viciously, and said angrily: "I will find out that it was you who vented the truth in the future, and see if I don't pick you up." skin!"

Saying that, Da Ma Jindao sat down in front of the desk, and impatiently swept all the remaining four treasures of the study on the table to the ground, and scolded: "Why are you standing still, why don't you hurry up and serve the dishes!"

As if being pardoned, Xing hurriedly opened the food box and placed it outside, at the same time he said cautiously: "Master, please calm down, don't be so angry—and besides, you should copy the Buddhist scriptures anyway..."

"Copy what?!"

Jia Amnesty ordered impatiently: "You find someone to copy one hundred copies of Master's handwriting and send them every day!"

Mrs. Xing hastily agreed, and then suddenly remembered the business, hurriedly took out the letter and handed it to Jia She: "Master, this is just sent by King Zhongshun."

"Sigh~"

Hearing King Zhongshun's name, the unruliness on Jia She's face disappeared immediately, he took a sharp breath, grabbed the letter with his hands, tore open the cover and glanced at it, his expression became cloudy and uncertain.

"master."

Mrs. Xing arranged the meals, and couldn't help asking carefully when she saw the situation: "I don't know what the lord wants from you?"

"Humph!"

Jia Amnesty smashed the letter on the table, gritted his teeth, and said, "What else could it be? Naturally, I heard that I was locked up and came here to collect debts!"

"Debt, debt collection?"

The Xing family was taken aback for a moment, then remembered the foreign debts owed by their family, and couldn't help but suddenly said: "Master, the money was actually borrowed from the Zhongshun Palace?"

As he said that, a look of panic appeared on his face.

After all, King Zhongshun is no better than others, he is the master who can really tear his face face to face, if he comes to the door with the excuse of debt collection...

Xing shivered, and couldn't help but blurt out and ask: "Why does the master want to borrow his money?"

"What do you know?!"

Jia Amnesty glared at Xing Shi angrily. In fact, he was also regretful in his heart. He thought to himself that he should have waited until the money came together—but with his temper, how could he wait when he saw what he wanted?

As for why he had to borrow money from King Zhongshun...

Ever since Sun Shaozu blocked the door and yelled at him, who else would dare to lend him money?

That is to say, King Zhongshun had no taboos, and he was sure that he would not dare to renege on his debts, so he gave him 8000 taels of silver at the Canton Fair.

The appointment was made nine times a month and thirteen times. Actually, there is still half a month before the due date, but the accountant of the palace heard that Jia Amnesty was locked up, and he was afraid that he would not be able to raise enough money by then, so he specially revised the book for a while. Let Jia Amnesty prepare early.

Jia Amnesty plotted against Jiao Shun before, precisely to make up for this hole.

But who would have thought that the old lady would be so partial to Jiao Shun, not only disqualified Laiwang and his wife in public, but also imprisoned him in the Buddhist hall!
As a result, it is too late to think of other ways to raise money.

If this offends King Zhongshun...

Thinking of this, Jia Amnesty no longer cared about eating, got up and walked back and forth in the Buddhist hall anxiously.

After a while, he suddenly asked, "How much money can I make at Mid-Autumn Festival?"

"This……"

Mrs. Xing counted with her fingers: "The filial piety of the tire workshop in the south is given away once a season. I just received 1 taels in July, and the next delivery will have to wait until October. I can't count on it for the time being; The money allocated by the master just the day before yesterday... plus the old lady passed her birthday, there is not much left."

"What are you talking about, I just ask how much you can make up!"

"If you don't keep the money for August 7000th, and wait for Qin Xian to send the deduction for repairing the yard, you can probably get together six to seven thousand taels."

"not enough!"

Jia Amnesty paced around violently for a few more times, then suddenly turned around, stared fiercely at Xing Shi and said, "No matter what method you use, you must raise 400 taels of silver before August [-]th and send it to Prince Zhongshun's residence! "

"This……"

With a bitter face, Xing pleaded: "Master, I am a slave to a woman, where..."

"No matter what, we must scrape together this money!"

Jia Amnesty gritted his teeth without any doubt: "Otherwise, master, I will be in great trouble, and I will never forgive you stupid woman!"

"Then, then I will discuss with Lian's daughter-in-law..."

"No!"

As soon as the Xing family asked Wang Xifeng for help, she was rejected by Jia She: "Do you think the old lady's punishment is not harsh enough? If this matter gets to the old lady's ears, can I still have a favor?! "

"where……"

Xing immediately thought of Jiao Shun, after all, she didn't know many outsiders.

But thinking that the two sides had already torn their faces, she quickly rejected the idea, and instead thought of Jia Zhen. This nephew of the family has always been on good terms with the master, and he just happened to make a fortune by marrying a wife. He can borrow 4000 taels for emergency.
