Juan Wang's Little Lady: Nongmen hunters work hard to plow the fields

Chapter 81 The Su Family Changes Hands
Mrs. Li lived in Zhangjia Village for ten consecutive days. During this time, the Su family was not peaceful.

On the third day after she left, rice shops, cloth shops, and oil shops that owed money came to ask for the money.When the servants learned that the master's family had owed so much money on credit outside, thinking of being owed more than ten days of monthly money, they also started arguing.

Su Qinming was furious when he heard about it, and forced him to ask Aunt Zhao what was going on. Aunt Zhao gave an excuse and hurried to Wuli Village with the deposit certificate to get the silver, but found that the village had already been emptied.The only person left to look at the Zhuangzi said that the owner had sold the Zhuangzi, and he didn't know who it was sold to.

Only then did Aunt Zhao realize that something was wrong, and the banker probably ran away with money.She hurriedly contacted several noble ladies around her, asked Lin Shu and Miss Chun Ran of the county magistrate, and they all said that she had never heard of any noble owner, nor did she invest any money, and even laughed at her.

Aunt Zhao ran away for a day, and finally realized that her 200 taels of silver were probably for naught.When she left the county magistrate's mansion, she almost fainted at the gate, but the girl next to her put her in the carriage and sent her home.

When Aunt Zhao returned home, she found that a bigger disaster had also come to her door.

Previously, she used the house deed and land deed to go to the bank to mortgage the silver, and now the clerk of the bank also came to her door and demanded a total of 120 taels of principal plus interest, and asked Aunt Zhao to pay back the money immediately, otherwise she would sell the house to make up the money.

This house is Su Qinming's ancestral house, and he built it up little by little with the money he saved from teaching. It was his family business all his life, but now it was mortgaged by his concubine's room for money, and he fainted from anger immediately.The whole family frantically pressed him for a long time before they rescued him.

Su Qin asked someone to come to the family law and beat Aunt Zhao hard.Aunt Zhao couldn't bear the pain, so she confessed that she took all her family property for interest but was cheated.

Knowing the truth, Su Qinming was so angry that he spread out on the grand teacher's chair, wanting to discuss it with his wife, and then remembered that she went to Zhangjia Village to visit her daughter and son-in-law a while ago.

Recalling those years of favoring concubines, marrying off the prostitute, forcing the wife to stay at home, he regretted it.He hurriedly asked someone to repair the book and sent it to Zhangjia Village, so that the lady would come back and preside over the overall situation.

Mrs. Li lived well in Zhangjia Village, when she suddenly heard that something happened at home, she hurriedly packed up her things and wanted to go home.

Su Lian gave Zhang Jianshan a wink, he immediately understood, and went to deal with the boy who sent the message, Su Lian pulled his mother back to the wing, and persuaded her earnestly.

"Mother, you can't go back today." Su Lian said straight to the point.

"Not going back? Why?"

"I have to wait until my father personally evicts Aunt Zhao from the mansion. Whether it is sent back or sent out, she will never be allowed to come back."

Seeing her daughter's calm but firm eyes, Mrs. Li seemed to have made up her mind a long time ago, and said slowly: "But if I don't go back, if something happens to your father..."

Su Lian said: "Mother, you have been angry all your life, and you are still worried about him. Don't worry, he will be fine. Today I will write back in the name of mother, saying that Aunt Zhao caused this disaster, The root cause of the disaster must be eradicated before the right medicine can be prescribed. In the letter, you must also tell your father that you already have a solution, and as long as he handles Aunt Zhao, the rest of the problems will not be a problem."

"I don't know how to resolve it!" When Mrs. Li remembered that the house at home was pawned by Aunt Zhao, she was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.

Su Lian hugged her mother and said with a smile: "My mother doesn't have it, but my daughter does."

Then she told Li Shi one by one her plan.After persuasion for a long time, Mrs. Li finally agreed to study the book first and go home, and asked Su Qinming to dispose of Aunt Zhao according to the method of deportation.

The boy who delivered the letter waited for a long time, only to receive a letter, and the eldest lady who was anxious to go home immediately refused to go home no matter how much she persuaded her.He really had no choice but to hurry back with the letter.

After seeing off the servant, Li Shi was still worried and depressed.Su Lian stayed with her all the time, talking and laughing to make her bored, cooking and eating to make her happy. It wasn't until evening that Li Shi gradually recovered.

When going back to the room to rest at night, Zhang Jianshan asked: "When Lian'er takes out the silver to redeem the house deed and the land deed, how do we explain where the money came from? If this matter cannot be explained, it may arouse suspicion."

Su Lian smiled and said: "I've thought about it a long time ago, so I said, this money is for Brother Shan."

"Mine?" Zhang Jianshan was slightly taken aback, then laughed dumbly, "How is this possible, who would believe it?"

Su Lian tilted her head and smiled and said, "Why don't you believe me? When my father came to ask my mother to go back, I asked Brother Jianshan to take out a silver note of 100 taels in front of him, saying that our adoptive father used to be in Qi There are many rare birds and animals in Yunshan, these are all his money, and now I leave it to you, it’s just that Brother Shan usually keeps a low profile. As long as the money is real, why should he doubt it?”

Zhang Jianshan looked at the playful little lady, she was really a good planner and a good means.

"Lian'er is sure that your father will come to the door in person?" He raised his eyebrows and asked, "He thinks that the reputation of a scholar is more valuable than his life."

Su Lian couldn't help laughing after hearing this.

"What are you laughing at?" Zhang Jianshan said calmly.

Su Lian clutched her belly and said out of breath: "A penny can't beat a hero. How can there be a few people in the world who really value fame more than their lives? Don't say it's life, it's starvation." After a few meals, ninety-nine out of ten scholars will probably give up their fame."

Zhang Jianshan looked at the young lady's rampant appearance, and said indifferently: "Don't uncle Boyi and Qi Jie's recommendation count?"

Su Lian was stunned, but he knew that Uncle Boyi Qi Jiezhi had pushed him, and he probably "listened to Master Lizheng's words".

Su Lian restrained her smile, and said lightly: "Lian'er is talking about fame, not festival. It's a small matter to throw away false fame, but a big one to betray one."

Zhang Jianshan smiled lightly: "I can't say no to Lian'er."

Su Lian watched the man sit aside and mend his pile of bows and arrows, after a while, she walked over and knelt down in front of him, and said softly: "Brother Jianshan, in a few days I will accompany my mother back to the Su residence to clean up the mess. At that time, I will ask Yan Dadong’s next post to invite my father to play in his Yiyuan for a day or two. He is at home, and I can’t deal with those who bullied my mother. See if brother Shan can Go with my dad? Remember, don’t let him come back until my business is finished.”

Zhang Jianshan replied without raising his eyes: "Okay."

Su Lian smiled at him, got up and flew away like a bird.

Zhang Jianshan knew that his little lady was a strategist. In just a few months, the Su family's game of chess had changed hands.He watched with his own eyes that she defeated Aunt Zhao every step of the way, and subdued Yingying's father, but he did not touch her body.

One day, if she is given a bigger game, can she be so handy?
