Lucky Star Gao Zhao

Chapter 175 Picking up money

Gao Cui hurriedly took the silver bag, opened it and saw that it was indeed silver, and poured it on the table, counting it, it was a total of 50 taels.

"Oh, so many? If someone loses this, how anxious should you be? Where is your father?"

"I picked it up near my home. My brother and I waited for a while, but no one came, so we went home and didn't see Dad."

"What will you say when your father comes back?" Jiang Shi put away the money bag and saw that the two sons nodded, but the elder sister nodded with pity on her face.

"The person who lost the money might be buying medicine or emergency. Don't be greedy. Our family can live without the money. If it's not ours, don't take it." Jiang explained to the children. speak clearly.

Gao Zhao also talked a lot, nothing more than that don't expect extravagant things that don't belong to you, and spend what you earn to be comfortable.

"Sister, I know that the person who pays the bill is happy and interesting, but if you take advantage of a small advantage, you will suffer a big loss."

Jiang looked at his daughter, and knew that the daughter taught his son what he said. Although it was the truth, what he said sounded awkward.

"You can't spend money indiscriminately, let others treat you as a fool, you have to see if you are sincere when you make friends, you can come and go, you can't ask you to pay the bill, that is sincerity takes advantage of you, so you can't date, making money is not easy , To be slaughtered by others as a big family is a fool."

Seeing that her daughter was still talking nonsense, Jiang said, "Zhaoer, put away your jade bracelet. Now that you are still young, don't wear it. Put it away and wear it later."

Gao Zhao quickly took it off and handed it to his mother, "Mom, put it away for me. I won't keep it. If you can't help but take it out and look at it, you might accidentally drop it again."

After hearing this, Qiaoyun also took off the jade pendant from her neck, and handed it to her mother, and the Jiang family put it away for them, and put it away in the back room.

At this time Gao Wenlin came back from Sanya, Gao Yangrong quickly told him about the 50 taels of silver, Gao Wenlin picked up the money bag and looked at it.

"This money bag doesn't seem to belong to ordinary people. The quality of the fabric is good. I picked it up near our house? Then go ask Mr. Jia's house, maybe it was dropped by his family."

Gao Wenlin had been working in the yamen for many years, so he still had a clear idea of ​​the problem, because of the concept of hierarchy and economic conditions, merchants, rich households, and ordinary people had different supplies.

Jiang asked Gao Zhao to take his siblings back to her house, and then said that an old lady had come to Jia's house, gave him some gifts, and said that he would come to eat big pot vegetables tomorrow.

Gao Wenlin was puzzled, this Jia family does not seem to be from the old Dowager Jia's family, otherwise the old Dowager Jia would not have just left the palace and came here. I heard that the emperor has always been very filial to the old Dowager Jia, who would let the palace If there is no queen mother here, this old concubine is the oldest.

It is estimated that Mr. Jia is Professor Jia from the Imperial College, and it is reasonable for relatives to visit him.

"Then I'll take this money and go to Jia's house. No wonder Mr. Jia didn't go to school today and gave the students a holiday. Someone from the family came."

He went out of the inner courtyard and saw Master Yao walking out happily, he stopped to salute when he saw him, now Gao Wenlin looked at Master Yao as if he was watching a thief, so Master Yao avoided him.

When I went to Jia's house, Mr. Jia was in the house and saw Gao Wenlin holding a money bag. I don't know why he came to give me money. Could it be that he wants to refund the food expenses?

"Director Gao is here, sit down quickly, I'm busy these days, and I want to play chess with your father in a few days, why are you free today?"

After Gao Wenlin sat down, he put the silver bag on the table and said, "This is the silver my son just picked up near home. Let me ask if Mr. Jia lost it."

ah?Huh?Ow?Why did you pick up the silver and come to ask me?

Mr. Jia just wanted to say that it wasn't his own, but when he thought of his aunt, he immediately said, "I didn't lose it, but I'll ask other people. Someone came to the house today, maybe someone lost the money in a panic."

He sent a servant to ask his aunt, coughed and coughed twice, and ordered the servant to pour tea for Gao Wenlin, thinking that the bag of silver might have been done by his aunt, she had done such things before.

After a while, Jia Xibei and Wu Changliang came supporting Mrs. Jia, Gao Wenlin hurriedly got up and bowed to salute.

After Mrs. Jia sat down, she looked at Mrs. Gao. She was not tall, thin, with drooping eyebrows, and a bit of a sad face. Mrs. Gao looked like her father, but looked more festive than her father. She really wanted to be with him Dad seems to be finished, even if he smiles, it seems like a wry smile.

Wu Changliang greeted the master, and went back to stand behind Mrs. Jia.Gao Wenlin looked at his face and was a little annoyed.

Mrs. Jia looked at the silver bag on the table, and then thought that the guards should change it for a silver bag. This fabric is from the palace, so how can it be found outside?Even if you can't recognize that it is from the palace, you can tell at a glance that it is not for ordinary people to use. Master Gao can find it here directly, and it is thoughtful.

"Oh, I must have dropped it, I didn't even notice, my silver is all kept by Mother Zhen, just ask her to find out."

Gao Wenlin felt strange when he heard this surname. The surname Jia was named after Mother Zhen, so the truth and falsehood were symmetrical.

Jia Xibei went to the door, and Madam Zhen, who followed her great-aunt, was waiting at the door. She had already heard what was said inside, and the master's words were also recognized by her, so she followed in and saluted.

She pretended to look at the bag, and replied: "The maidservant lost it. There are 50 taels in it, and there is a small word "Xiu" on the bag's mouth."

Gao Wenlin looked at Zhakou, and there was a word "Xiu", so he poured out the silver from the silver bag, a total of 50 taels, and it was right, then he got up, ready to leave.

"Xunsheng, I apologize to your master. I was unreasonable last time. Master Gao, don't worry about it. The child has never suffered. I must not get used to it when I first came here. You can teach it slowly. Since my nephew handed over my grandson Here you go, my wife is at ease, his parents are not free, and I’m fine if I stay, come here to have a look, Wucheng County is nice, the place is not big, but it’s quiet, I’ve never been here before, this time I’m here Stay for a while."

Wu Changliang stepped forward again, bowed to Gao Wenlin and said, "Master, I'm sorry that day, it's my apprentice's fault."

Gao Wenlin was angry, but he couldn't argue with a young man, he kindly stretched out his hand to help his apprentice, and said, "No, it's because the food made by my Gao family doesn't suit my taste, so it's hard for my apprentice."

He doesn't want to say too much, he really wants to say that you are Jiaolang, and my family can't afford to take care of you.In the past, he was unwilling to admit this apprentice, but for some reason, today he wanted to talk about the apprentice, and even said the words of the apprentice several times.

Mrs. Jia met Gao Wenlin for the first time, and after hearing what he said, she smiled and said, "That's good. From now on, master and apprentice will be like father and son. It is also his blessing that my Xunsheng has you as his master. I will ask you to take care of me in the future." .”

"The old lady is polite, I will teach my disciples well, as long as you can rest assured."

"Don't worry, if you don't worry, I won't recognize you as a master. My nephew is good at judging people. He told me when he returned to Beijing during the holidays. Master Gao is a knowledgeable and knowledgeable person, and it is suitable to teach Xunsheng."

"The old lady is so ashamed that she has won the award."
