spring cloud warm

Chapter 345
There was a drizzle in Pingming, and after dawn, the breeze was filled with the fragrance of sweet-scented osmanthus.

The two little girls, who had been in the mansion for less than a month, walked one after the other, and they wanted to deliver white fungus soup to the old lady's room.

The little girl in front slipped her foot and almost fell down, she couldn't help screaming.

The last one came up to help her, and said: "Stay calm, don't be surprised. Look at grandma, no matter how big things are, don't rush, we have to learn."

Lvzhen just saw it and couldn't help laughing.

Skandar was walking up behind her and said, "This is how people are virtuous and self-exalting. Just look at these two little girls, and you will know how upright the atmosphere in our house is."

Lvshi didn't know that he was behind, so she was startled and scolded him: "You're a dead man! You walk without sound?!"

Skandar shrunk his neck, showed his white teeth, and said with a smile, "Stop scolding me all the time, I've made up my mind today, and I have to ask Grandma for mercy."

As she said that, she turned her head and left. Lvyu was puzzled, and laughed and cursed: "Where is this? Why did you just say something, I dare not wake up."

But then he understood what Skandar meant, and hurriedly chased after him in fright.

Skandar is tall and long-legged, and the green watercraft can't catch up quickly.

But Zhu's mother came over, stopped Lvyu and said, "Miss, do we need to prepare more sweet-scented osmanthus? This is a great season..."

"Good mother, just make up your own mind," Lv Po said hastily, "I still have something to do, so I'm leaving first."

When she rushed to Xu Chunjun's room, Sikanda was talking to Xu Chunjun about making an offering in the ancestor hall.

"What's the matter with you? Is there something urgent?" Seeing Ziling panting, Xu Chunjun asked her, "It's like a room is on fire."

"It's okay, it's okay, I just want to ask the girl if you want to prepare more sweet-scented osmanthus?" Green Pole said so, but she winked at Skandar, meaning to tell him not to talk nonsense.

"Prepare twice as much as in previous years." Xu Chunjun said, "Use both Mid-Autumn Festival and Double Ninth Festival."

Ziling was in confinement, so Xu Chunjun asked Lvzhen and Aunt Huang to take care of the Mid-Autumn Festival, and specially ordered: "Mid-Autumn Festival is the birthday of the eldest sister, she lives at home now, so I have to make arrangements for her. , this must be taken care of.”

After hearing this, Lüzhen hurriedly agreed, Zheng Yuelang is easy-going, and the servants are very close to her.

Luchun knew that organizing Zheng Yuelang's birthday was also to make their girls look good, so she didn't dare to neglect.

"Grandma, the concierge came and said that someone is visiting outside." Aunt Huang walked in and said.

"Who is it?" Xu Chunjun asked.

"It's the steward of the Shen family's silk and satin shop, who brought a name card from their uncle." Aunt Huang said, "It's just something important."

"Strange, this Shen family has no relationship with us, what are you doing here at this time?" Lv Shu was puzzled.

The Shen family is a big family in the east of the Yangtze River, and they have been dealing in silk and satin for generations, and there are several silk and satin shops in the capital.

But they don't have lords, they are complete merchants, and they can't compete with the Zheng family in this regard. What's more, although the Zheng family also does business, they are not on the same side as them, so they have never dealt with them.

"Since you have said that you have something important to do, please come in." Xu Chunjun said, "It's in the front guest room, I'll go right away."

The butler of the Shen family is about fifty years old, thin and tall, with a shrewd look in his amiable air.

Seeing Xu Chunjun, he said hello with a humble face, and said: "The villain is taking the liberty of coming today. I have heard that the eldest grandma is the most lenient, so I don't think I will be rude to the villain. Originally, my uncle should have come here in person, but he I'm not in Beijing these few days, and things are urgent, so I can only come here as a villain."

"Housekeeper Shen, you are being polite." Xu Chunjun knew that the butler of the Shen family was also given a surname by the master, just like Zheng Long and Zheng Hu back then, "I don't know if there is anything you want to tell me today?"

"Grandma, listen to me." Steward Shen had a serious look on his face, which showed that what he said was not a good thing, "You must know the uncle of Xici Wang's family."

Xu Chunjun nodded: "That's right, he used money in our bank several times."

"That's it," Shen Butler said, "A few days ago he said that he would give up a piece of land to our uncle, because he needed money urgently, he asked for 20 taels of silver.

At that time, we showed the land deed to our uncle, and it was indeed true.Because his piece of land is really good, and it is a guaranteed business, so our uncle asked for it and gave him 10 taels of silver.

He typed the receipt, pressed his hand, and agreed that the money and land would be settled in half a month.It's just that I didn't expect that the promised days have passed, but I can't find him no matter what.

Later I heard that he took the title deed of that land to the bank of your mansion as a mortgage.I don't know if there is such a thing? "

Xu Chunjun was not in a hurry when he heard this, but smiled slightly, because she had expected this day a long time ago.

"Are you talking about the piece of land in Huzhuang in the east of the city?" Xu Chunjun asked.

"Exactly," Shen Guanjia said, "I wonder how much money he mortgaged?"

"20 taels." Xu Chunjun said after taking a sip of tea.

"It seems that Grandma has fallen for him too!" Steward Shen slapped the table, "This person actually jumped like a fairy."

"Steward Shen, please drink some tea and talk slowly if you have something to say." Xu Chunjun's attitude was so gentle that Steward Shen didn't understand why she acted like this for a moment.

"Grandma, are you not in a hurry?" Steward Shen asked, "This is not a small amount, even if he sells his land, it will not be worth the money of our two families! Or do you want to dispose of this land deed alone? "

The combined silver of the two families is 30 taels, and the land can be sold for 25 taels at most.

He came here to discuss with Xu Chunjun how to minimize the loss, after all the title deed is in Xu Chunjun's hands.

"Steward Shen, don't get me wrong." Xu Chunjun smiled, "Although the land deed is in my hands, I won't sell it and keep the money in my own hands."

"Big grandma said so, the villain can rest assured." Shen Butler heaved a sigh of relief, "I heard that you are a hero in the female high school, and seeing you today is really well-deserved."

"Shen Steward, you don't need to praise me, it's still in the future." Xu Chunjun picked up the teacup and said with a smile, "So I told you to drink more tea, so as not to get angry."

"Grandma, what does this mean? The villain doesn't understand." Butler Shen was puzzled.

"Steward Shen, let me ask you, do you think this Wang family is deliberately defrauding money?" Xu Chunjun asked.

"That's natural. He is in business. How can he not know what's going on here? Besides, he came out in person. He first robbed us of our money, and then went to your bank. He took a piece of land deed and extorted money from the two families." , Isn't this a lie?" Butler Shen didn't get angry when he said this, their family is also in business, and this is the first time they have encountered such a thing.

"Since he is deliberately defrauding money, it is impossible to only deceive our two families." Xu Chunjun said, "If you don't believe me, just wait and see. It won't be long before someone will come to your door."
