Jinghong Tower

Changfu said hurriedly: "Old madam, the eldest master said that he would only pick up the eldest girl."

Before she finished speaking, the old lady covered her heart and said, "You only care about your daughter and don't care about me. You bitch slave, you said that my son is unfilial, what are you worried about?"

The eight eyes of the three-bedroom family of four all looked at Changfu. What are you worried about?

Changfu looked at one of the maids who followed him as if asking for help. Her name seemed to be Liuxia. It was really not that I was disobedient, but that the old lady insisted on following.

Liuxia nodded at him, and Changfu breathed a sigh of relief, which scared him to death.

Worried that King Jin would attack again at some point, the old lady urged Mother Zhao to pack her things quickly and take all her gold and silver treasures with her. As for those that couldn't be taken away, she would bury them if she could and hide them if she could.

It can neither be found by King Jin's soldiers nor stolen by Lin.

Mother Zhao took out a box: "Old madam, do you want to bring this too?"

In the box are the fish scale book of Jinghong Tower and the seal that was obtained from Yan.

This is no ordinary seal, this is the trust of Jinghong Tower.

Yan took this seal to get the silver from Jinghong Tower.

The old lady's eyes lit up, yes, how could she forget that this seal was in her hand.

"Take your seal and go to Jinghong Tower to pay three thousand taels of silver. If they can't come up with three thousand taels, then give them as much as they can."

Jinghong Tower has reopened. Yan can get money, why can't she?
  What? If Jinghong Tower cannot be opened, will it be closed down?
  It was none of her business. She was already in the capital at that time. Could He Ran still force her, a grandmother, to pay back the money?

Just do it.

The old lady has a noble status, but she is not comparable to Yan's despicable fool.

Of course the old lady would not pay the money in person, she sent Mother Zhao. Last time Yan asked for money, Jinghong Tower sent a boy to deliver the money, so this time, Jinghong Tower will send a boy to deliver the money.

Thinking of this, the old lady specially told Zhao's mother: "We have to hurry, and it is inconvenient to carry cash, so we won't let them make another trip. We will exchange everything for banknotes. Just take the banknotes back."

After Zhao's mother left, the old lady held the box containing the fish scale book and happily waited for Zhao's mother to come back with the banknotes.

But after waiting and waiting, it was Mother Zhao who came back empty-handed.

"Old madam, the shopkeeper of Jinghong Tower said that this seal is fake, and he wants to report the official to arrest the old slave. He said that the old slave is a liar!"

The old lady was stunned: "He said the seal was fake? That's impossible. Didn't Mr. Yan also use this seal to withdraw money?"

"The old slave said the same thing, but they said that this seal was fake. It was because of what happened to the Yan family, so Jinghong Tower re-activated a new seal. The new seal is in the hands of Mr. He, except for that A new seal, the other seals are all fake." Mother Zhao was about to cry. She had scared him to death just now. Those people were really going to report to the official, and they were definitely not trying to scare her.

"You didn't say you are from the He family. This is our He family's shop. I am the old lady of the He family. I can't get money from my shop anymore?" The old lady thinks that Mother Zhao is getting old and is getting more and more tired. The more useless it becomes.

Mother Zhao felt aggrieved. She said all these things, but those people didn't listen and even kicked her out. They beat her out with a big stick. She got a blow on her butt, which is still hurting now.

The old lady was very angry. The matter was serious. She wanted the third master to go to Jinghong Tower to ask for money, but Zhao’s mother told her that the guys from Jinghong Tower beat people with sticks. She also said that Jinghong Tower had a golden plaque given by Taizu. I'm not afraid of making trouble at the Yamen. The old lady was startled. Why did the emperor give a gold plaque? Why haven't I heard of it before?

However, hitting someone with a stick seems quite scary. Don’t go with the third child. Go with the second child instead. The second child has rough skin and thick flesh, so it will be fine after two hits. The third child has thin skin and tender flesh. What will happen if it is broken? manage?
  When the second master heard that he was going to be beaten, of course he would not go. If he really took out the money from Jinghong Tower, the money would not reach his hands.

No matter what good thing is in my hands, it belongs to me. When I am happy, I will give it to my third brother or my second nephew, but I will not give it to him.

The second master walked around the street and came back to tell the old lady that Jinghong Tower would not give her money and he was incapable of doing it. It was better for him to let the third brother go as he had a solution.

Of course, the third master also refused to go. You pushed me to give in. By the time the two brothers went together, Jinghong Tower was already closed.

The old lady was very angry, but she had no idea. She had to rush on her way tomorrow morning, and she didn't have time to wait for one more day. If King Jin came to call, she wouldn't be able to leave.

So at dawn the next day, the steward of the He family prepared the rented carriage. When Changfu arrived, there was only one rented mule carriage, but when he returned to Beijing, there were five carriages, three of which were on board. It's the old lady's thing.

He Ran received the news before the He family's motorcade arrived in the capital.

The He family always surprises her.

Originally, she only wanted to bring He Shuyuan to the capital, but she didn't expect that Mrs. He and her entire family would come.

Thinking about Mr. He and his foreign wife, He Ran felt that this day, he had another career.

She quickly told Mrs. Shangguan the good news.

Grandma is good to her, and when she has fun things, of course she wants to make her happy too.

The reputation of the head of the He family is getting bigger and bigger, and He Ran doesn't want to bring trouble to the Lao family. Anyway, many people in the court know that the Lao and He families have no contact with each other, so they should just let the relationship continue to deteriorate.

So she wouldn't let Mrs. Shangguan come to Jinghong Tower again. If something happened, she would send someone to Lao's house to report.

The people sent by He Ran came back soon and brought a handwritten letter from Mrs. Shangguan.

Also sent with the letter were two pairs of embroidered shoes made by Mrs. Shangguan for He Ran.

Mrs. Shangguan told He Ran in the letter that Mr. He was jumping up and down and wanted to go south. Lao Guanghuai worked secretly and got him a position that looked good. However, this matter was still suppressed. Originally, this The documents were going to be issued in a few days. Now that they heard that the He family was coming to Beijing, Mrs. Shangguan asked He Ran whether they should wait a little longer or proceed as planned.

He Ran knew that Mr. He would not be able to take office smoothly when he went south this time. He would encounter an accident on the way and his whereabouts would be unknown from now on.

When the time comes, she, the true daughter of the He family, will look for Mr. He everywhere just like the He family looked for her.

No one has seen the true daughter of the He family, but many have seen Mr. He. It is not easy to pick up fakes.

He Ran wrote back to Mrs. Shangguan: Wait, wait.

Mr. He has already engaged her. Such a good marriage cannot be delayed just because Mr. He went south to take office.
