sturdy landlady

Chapter 15 Too shameless

There is a saying that if you have nothing to do, go to the Three Treasures Hall. Gu Xiaoxiao doesn't believe that these two women just came to cry for poverty. It's so simple to run to run people. She just glanced at Chen's indifferently, and then continued to feed her mother porridge.

"Although the eldest brother is gone, he has left countless property to your eldest family. I heard that... the silver bill alone is several 10 taels. Speaking of it... if there is no royal title handed down by the ancestors For a tiger-wolf division like the Northwest Army, the eldest brother and sister-in-law would not have such savings." The third wife, Jiang Shi, smiled from the side.

"Yeah, sister-in-law, the reason why you are here today is because of the glory of your family. I came here today at the order of the old lady. I heard that... someone in the He family's business in the capital is selling a second-grade spiritual fruit." Suzaku fruit, the one with the highest price gets it, the old lady wants to buy one for the children in the house, and the public doesn’t have much money, so I have to ask my sister-in-law to donate generously, my sister-in-law has always understood righteousness, so she won’t take it?” Mrs. Chen looked at Ye Shi, squeezed a silk handkerchief, and asked with a smile.

Ye's face was full of anger when she heard the words, and when she was about to explode, Gu Xiaoxiao immediately held her hand, signaling her mother not to get angry.

If it were the past, everyone in the mansion seemed to be getting along well, happy and harmonious, brothers and sisters respectful, and sisters-in-law as close as sisters, Mrs. Ye might really bleed a lot and take out a large sum of money, but after going through so much After all the troubles, she would rather feed the banknotes to the dogs than cheapen these wolf-hearted things.

"Grandmother really loves us juniors. Although I was not lucky enough to eat the spirit melon yesterday, but for the sake of the family, we are willing to pay this amount of money. I wonder how much money Second Aunt needs?" Gu Xiaoxiao asked with a smile .

After hearing this, Mrs. Chen was stunned. She really didn't expect Gu Xiaoxiao to be so talkative. After all... what happened yesterday was indeed that they went too far, but... a useless chess like Gu Xiaoxiao is indeed There is no need for cultivation, it would be a waste for her to eat spirit melon, it is better to eat it from her pear smoke.

Originally, Mrs. Chen thought that she had to move out the old lady and scare the mother and daughter to make them submit, but Gu Xiaoxiao actually agreed.

"Gongzhong and our second and third wards pooled together 20 taels of silver, and there is still a shortfall of 30 taels. What the old lady means is that if 50 taels is not enough, she will pay the rest." Chen said quickly with a smile.

"30 taels of silver!" Gu Xiaoxiao looked at Mrs. Ye and asked with a smile, "Mom, can we take it out?"

Mrs. Ye didn't know what her daughter meant, seeing her nodding at her, indicating that she would agree, she could only whisper, "It should be possible to get it together, but... it will take a while to sell a lot of shops and properties. "

"If you can get it out, that's it. The Suzaku fruit will not be sold for ten days and a half months. Don't worry, then there will be Mrs. Lao and Li Sheng." Chen said with a smile.

"That's easy to say, but...there is only one Suzaku fruit, how should I divide it? You can't cut it into three parts, one for each room, the effect will be much worse. A natural treasure like Suzaku fruit, isn't it?" Ordinary spiritual fruits are most effective when eaten whole, and I heard that the fruit is only the size of a fist, and it is not enough for one person to eat." Gu Xiaoxiao changed the subject and said with a smile: "Since our first wife is out Big head, we should get that rosefinch fruit, please tell my grandma and grandma, if she has no objection, we will give you the money." Gu Xiaoxiao said with a smile.

This world is different from any dynasty she was familiar with in her previous life. It is a strange place and a strange dynasty.

In the past few years, the world has undergone changes, and many treasures of heaven and earth have appeared. She wants to protect her mother and find out the murderer who killed her father. Spiritual fruit, eating more can increase internal strength, but after all, it cannot be effective immediately, it needs to be accumulated slowly. If she can get that Suzaku fruit, her spiritual root can be repaired more in a short period of time, and her martial arts will be greatly improved. Naturally, it is a good thing .

The most important thing is... Suzaku fruit must have a core, and then I might be able to plant this second-grade spiritual fruit on the spiritual land of space.

Others go bankrupt and spend several 10 taels of silver to buy a Suzaku fruit, and even the dignitaries and nobles in the capital are desperate to snatch it, but I can grow it myself and eat it as a snack. It feels so good to think about it!

However, Gu Xiaoxiao also knows that these people are here to take advantage, and it is impossible to give her the fruit.

Sure enough, as soon as she finished speaking, Chen's face changed suddenly.

"This Suzaku fruit, don't be delusional. The old lady said that it belongs to Liyan. I advise you to prepare your bank notes obediently. It is not what it used to be. You should also recognize the situation clearly. Don't let the old man People come to force you in person, otherwise...the consequences are not something you can bear, don't be kicked out of the Gu family penniless and lose everything, that's what you deserve." Chen said viciously.

After hearing this, Mrs. Ye didn't get angry. Is this an attitude of begging them for money?This is simply stealing.

"Gu Liyan is only a fifth-grade low-grade spiritual root. It's just better than the useless spiritual root. It can only cultivate. No matter how much Suzaku fruit you eat, it won't help you. You won't achieve anything in your life. Let her eat it... Hmph... Violence." Mrs. Ye couldn't help but sarcastically said.

"So what? Our Liyan's qualifications are indeed not high. We can't compare with your Lisheng. The second-grade spiritual root is rare in the world. I don't know how many people envied and were called geniuses by many people. Now? Spiritual root What's the difference between damaged and useless spiritual roots? Give us pear smoke, at least it will have some effect, but give it to your daughter, then it will be like a meat bun beating a dog and never returning!" Chen said with a sneer.

Ye's eyes were red when she heard the words. In her opinion, even if her daughter's spiritual roots were abolished, she would still be a hundred times stronger than Gu Liyan. One person rushed in, but it was the second wife, Nanny Chen, who used to be married with Chen.

"Second Madam...Second Madam is not well, something serious has happened." Chen's nanny, Yu Momo, shouted with a look of loss of composure.

"What's the matter? How can you be so flustered?" Chen said, glaring at her.

"Second madam, there was a thief in the house. Many jade accessories were missing from the second and third misses, especially from the old lady. The jade treasures accumulated over the years were all gone. It is estimated that nearly 20 taels of silver were lost. Ah, especially the two pairs of jade bracelets handed down from the ancestors, the jade pendants, and the jade hairpin that the old lady married as a dowry. They are all the best jadeite, a priceless green jadeite, and there is no such good jadeite in the market now. It's something...you may not be able to buy it even if you have money." Nanny Yu said anxiously.
