The Regent's Sweetheart

Chapter 626 The Scholar
But Lin Jiaojiao's eyes on the other side made Chen Luo feel guilty, and said in a low voice, "His family is a little poor, and his brother is not a good person, but... he is very good, a gentleman, very good."

While talking, Chen Luo lowered her head shyly.

Lin Jiaojiao nodded slightly, and asked Chen Luo to tell her about her sweetheart.

Although Chen Luo described Ma Pingfeng very well, Lin Jiaojiao always felt that there was something strange, but she couldn't tell for a while.

"Third sister, his brother owes a lot of money. If I don't pay it back for him, he will be beaten to death. Now the money is not enough..." Chen Luo begged.

"What?" Lin Jiaojiao was a little startled.

This has stolen so much money.How could it not be enough?

According to common sense, ordinary people owe gambling debts, no matter how much they owe, it will not exceed 100 taels.

After all, a gambling house is not a temple where a Bodhisattva lives. When you can't pay back what you owe, you will never lend it to you again.

If you owe debts in multiple places, it will be 1000 taels at most.

Now that 4000 taels have been stolen, how could it not be enough?

After thinking for a while.

"Lolo! Have you been deceived?" Lin Jiaojiao asked with a frown.

Chen Luo was taken aback for a moment, then quickly shook his head, explaining: "Luo Luo was not deceived, Brother Ma is very good, he will not deceive Luo Luo."

This explanation is obviously not convincing enough, Chen Luo thought for a while and said: "Third sister, the last time I invited Brother Ma to Taohuawu, I took the road you used to take, and then ran into those domineering people .”

"They were vicious and beat Brother Ma and kicked me too."

Anyway, the room was full of women, she lifted her clothes, a bruise appeared on her white waist, and now it has turned yellow, which is enough to see what kind of injury she suffered.

"Third Sister, Brother Ma returned the token of love I gave her at that time, for fear of dragging me down, but I didn't accept it."

Hearing this, this person doesn't seem to be a wicked person, maybe he is from a poor and suffering family.

After all, Qin Zhi's family also has a jerk father and a few lazy brothers, and also owed a lot of gambling debts.

Thinking of Qin Zhi, I couldn't help but feel a little sad.

Chen Luo shook Lin Jiaojiao's hand, "Third Sister, please help me, I'm still short of 6000 taels of silver..."

"What? 6000 taels?" Lin Jiaojiao didn't know what to say for a while.

What did you do to owe 1 taels of silver?At this time, she didn't quite believe that Ma Pingfeng's brother was a gambler.

Could it be that he borrowed some usury?Otherwise, you can't owe so much money.

"Lolo! Let me send someone to investigate this matter. If it is true, and Ma Pingfeng is also a gentleman, I can help you, and I will also help him find his brother, so that you Better days ahead."

Lin Jiaojiao doesn't despise a scholar who is a scholar. She can rely on her talents and studies to get a good reputation, and she can also live a good life for Luo Luo.

"Third sister means that she is willing to help me?"

Chen Luo's expression brightened immediately, and he looked up at Lin Jiaojiao expectantly.

Lin Jiaojiao felt a little helpless when she was crying and laughing, and finally touched Chen Luo's head and said, "You, I really don't know what to say about you."

"Third Sister, Brother Ma and I have never done anything out of line, and Brother Ma is not that kind of person..." Chen Luo lowered his head as he spoke.

She knows that this is a very embarrassing thing for the Chen family, but she just likes Brother Ma...
