Chapter 90 Live Bandits

Fanyin has been busy all day, after all, he is instilling the process of division of labor and cooperation.

In the past, one person was in charge of the kitchen, but now it has become a multi-person collaboration. Although Zhao Yang can accept this concept, the others are not used to it.

But Sanskrit still patiently insisted on his method, from their non-cooperation to nagging that they had to cooperate, this is a job that consumes a lot of energy, and the nagging brain is a little numb and dizzy.

Taking Caiyun home, before entering the house, he saw a person running past in the corner with a "whoosh".

Caiyun was so startled, she screamed and hid behind Sanskrit, "Miss, what is that? Ghost?"

"Where is the ghost in broad daylight? It's just a big mouse." Fanyin looked at Chen's family. Their family has already been engaged to Wang Lu of Qin County, why are you still staring here?

Sanskrit suddenly stopped, did he come to ask for money?

Without thinking about it, Fanyin also planned to count the money in the family together to see if it was enough to return to the Chen family. For this kind of family, he had already made up his mind.

Sanskrit entered the door and began to count the silver. Qing Miao looked at the 20 taels she brought back with excitement, "Miss, where... where did you get so much money?" As for whether the count was enough to return to the Chen family, she was still wondering, but in a blink of an eye, she saw the odds and ends of money in the bag, and she couldn't close her mouth.

Finally, I don't have to see the disgusting Chen family anymore!

"Calculate all these and see how far we are left." Fanyin asked Caiyun and Qingmiao to come over to help. Although the family has income these days, they still have a lot of expenses.

How many mouths have been using this place as a canteen all day long, entering with the left hand and exiting with the right hand, even if there is money, it is not enough to pay 50 taels of debt.

Qing Miao counted carefully, even took out the small scales for weighing silver, the colorful clouds counted coppers, and the Sanskrit sounds counted.

The three of them were busy when they suddenly heard the sound of "dong dong dong" slamming on the door. If they heard this sound, it was not a good person.

Caiyun shuddered, "How much? Forgot..."

"Who knocked on the door so hard, rushing to buy a coffin for the burial!" Qing Miao went to open the door while cursing, Sanskrit asked Caiyun to put away the money first, just when the two of them entered the door, they saw people from the Chen family sneaking around Staring at her, the one who found her just after entering the door before a stick of incense, was obviously Mrs. Chen.

Sanskrit's estimation was not wrong, and Qing Miao didn't scold the wrong person. When she opened the door, she saw Mrs. Chen's fierce face with her hands on her hips.

"Hey, you came out of the cemetery and fell victim to an evil spirit? Who are you scaring with such a dead face!" Ever since something happened to Chen's family, Qing Miao has no reluctance to scold Mrs. Chen.

Mrs. Chen snorted coldly, and looked straight at Sanskrit who was standing at the door of the main house, "I came to ask your family for debts, and now our Chen family is also ruined, and every penny is a baby lump, and your father is the master." Master Bookkeeper also has to pay back the money, 100 taels of silver is quite a bit, and you have to pay interest.”

"100 taels? When did our master owe your family 100 taels of silver? There must be a limit to nonsense." Qing Miao's saliva sprayed Mrs. Chen's face, and Mrs. Chen wiped the creases on her face and stepped back quickly. "Bah bah, who is talking nonsense? We have... proofs!"

When mentioning the certificate, Qing Miao was a little speechless. Although she had heard that her master owed money, she had never heard of any certificate, so she had to turn her head to Sanskrit to see what her lady meant.

Sanskrit frowned slightly, she had never heard her father mention the proof of debt, did her father not mention it?Or is the Chen family fraudulent?

Looking carefully at Mrs. Chen's arrogant appearance, Fanyin's heart sank a little, but he still said: "When I came to Qingcheng County with my father, I paid back 50 taels of silver to the Chen family, but Master Chen took it away... "

"Is there such a thing? Where is the receipt issued by our master?" Mrs. Chen spread out her hand, "I will accept the receipt if I have it, and I will not if I don't!"

Sanskrit stared at him for a long while. At the time, Master Chen took the money and left without a receipt. At that time, she only had doubts but didn't pay much attention to it. It was also because the things she encountered in Qingcheng County were too shocking, and she didn't respond for a while. come over.

But did my father really issue an IOU to the Chen family?

"Where is the proof of my father's money owed? Take it out and have a look." Fanyin said, and Mrs. Chen took out a thick stack of paper from the woman who followed behind her. The receipts for pens, ink, papers and inkstones that he bought during the examination, as well as the receipts for his entry to Beijing for food, clothing, housing and transportation, total 110 five taels of silver, you can count them carefully."

"So you don't take my father seriously as the capital of Miss Chen's cultivation?" As soon as Sanskrit finished speaking, Mrs. Chen snorted coldly, "Aren't you refusing to admit that your daughter is your father's student?" You said that it was just a random call, and you are not considered sisters. If you are not a master, how can you have any talent for training? I am full and give others money to play?"

Sanskrit's expression completely fell.

She didn't expect Mrs. Chen to take advantage of what she said to Chen Yingzhi back then, and Mrs. Chen was able to keep all the receipts for so many years. She might have thought about using this to take advantage of her father.

That is, the kindness of my father will be slaughtered by this kind of people...

"If you come to have a good discussion today, I really intend to pay you back the money." Fanyin rubbed the sore hands that had just counted the money, "But now... I won't pay it back!"

"Don't pay back the money? You really don't care about your father's reputation. Master Yang's family owes money and dare not pay it openly. It's a joke. I'm going to the county government to make a fuss. I must ask for an explanation!" Chen Madam shouted angrily with her hands on her hips, but Fanyin looked at her calmly, "Then you go, Qing Miao, see off the guests!"

"Hurry up and get out!" Qing Miao listened to the Sanskrit voice and saw off the guests, and immediately started looking for a big broom for sweeping the yard.

Mrs. Chen was taken aback, why did this girl just let her go to the county government to file a complaint?Don't you mean to be afraid at all?

"I want to ask Magistrate Fang to make the decision!" Mrs. Chen was still shouting.

"If you don't go to the county magistrate, you don't have to ask the county magistrate Fang to make the decision. It doesn't matter if you go to someone else. Go, you should be familiar with the county government, so I don't need to guide you." Sanskrit waved his hand and walked back, Qing Miao had already picked up The big broom lay across in front of Mrs. Chen, "Are you going?"

"I...I'm going to sue right now!" Mrs. Chen was still afraid of Qing Miao, she hurriedly stepped back and left the Yang's house, because this girl was unambiguous and dared to hit her with a broom.

With a sound of "snap!", the door of Yang's courtyard was slammed shut, and Mrs. Chen was furious. No matter how she looked at the door, she stretched out her foot and kicked it, but she didn't notice that there was a rusty iron nail beside the door. , although it was rusted, it still exerted its residual heat and was scratching Mrs. Chen's shoe.

With a cry of "Wow", Mrs. Chen fell to the ground and covered her feet, screaming for pain.

The mothers-in-law hurriedly stepped forward to help her up, carried Mrs. Chen directly back to the Chen family, closed the door and did not mention the matter of the Yang family.

My wife had a bad start, so why are they still joining in the fun?What's more, the lady in my family is about to marry a prodigal son in Qin County. It is uncertain whether they will follow or stay in Qingcheng County. Who is willing to take the initiative to offend Mr. Yang at this time.

Even though Mrs. Chen was driven away, Fanyin still felt a little uneasy in her heart, because she didn't know if her father's name was on the bills and receipts that Mrs. Chen took.

Not so stupid, dad?
Sanskrit sighed in his heart and guessed that this matter could only be done after his father came back and asked carefully, but now there is one thing that must be done, and that is to find a house and move.

Because Mrs. Chen dared to ask for 100 taels of silver so blatantly today, it was obvious that their family did not plan to stay in Qingcheng County for a long time.

Chen Yingzhi was engaged to Wang Lu, and Master Chen was willing to give half of his family's property as a dowry, so they should go to Qin County with them.

A businessman would never do a business that loses money. Master Chen invested half of his property, and he would definitely use the influence of Wang Lu's family to get back more property from the people in Qin County. Otherwise, how could he agree so happily?

It was originally a poor county, and so many profiteers went there, Sanskrit really felt indignant for the people there.

But what's the use of indignation?I still have debts...

Put this debt aside for now, because Mrs. Chen doesn't intend to let them write off the money after giving them the money. On the contrary, they want to use this to publicize revenge, so you have to be prepared, and you can't touch anything. Although the houses are dilapidated and the tiles are rotten, it is necessary to fix the house first.

Thinking like this, Fanyin called Qing Miao over, "Go to the noodle shop and find Zhao Yang, and ask him to help find out where there is a rented house in the past two days, preferably a bigger one, at least three Into the hospital."

"Miss, are we planning to move away?" Qing Miao's face showed joy, "Then why go to Zhao Yang, it would be better to go directly to Mrs. Zhang, the county captain is in charge of the security of the city, and he will definitely know many young people."

"Ask Zhao Yang about this matter first. If you need to go to Zhang Xianwei, after all, it involves money. Let's find the right one, and then ask him to come forward and say a few words to reduce the rental price. If so Look for it directly, I'm afraid County Captain Zhang won't let us pay for it ourselves, we already owe a lot of favors, so don't bother him easily."

As Sanskrit said, Qing Miaodang agreed, put on her clothes and went out.

At this time, Yang Zhiyuan and Fang Qingyuan were reporting to Fang Qingyuan about the farmers' grain supplements in winter, and the head catcher Liang Dashan knocked on the door to see him.

Don't think that Liang Dashan is just a headhunter, but he is the direct descendant of Fang County Magistrate, he has always followed Fang County Magistrate's lead, and is also a person who reports to Fang County Magistrate every day about trivial matters in the county.

Yang Zhiyuan resigned first, and Liang Dashan came in immediately, moved to Fang Qingyuan's side and said, "My lord, the son of General Huaiyuan is at Fuling Temple in our county!"

"Oh, huh? Who?" Fang Qingyuan went from being nonchalant to extremely surprised, "Who are you talking about?"

"The son of the great general Huaiyuan, Zhong Xingyan!" Liang Dashan said clearly, "The general's wife passed away, and he sent the ashes for burial, and now he is temporarily staying in Fuling Temple, my lord, what shall we do?"

The corner of Fang Qingyuan's mouth twitched, "That's a live bandit, who told you? The abbot of Fuling Temple?"

"No one took the initiative to speak up."

"Then why the hell are you telling this county? Just...just pretend you don't know, you haven't heard!" Fang Qingyuan scolded the street for the first time, sighed deeply and still felt panicked, "As long as you don't take the initiative If we come to the door, we will be deaf, blind and dumb, whoever dares to go out and say a word, the county will cut off his tongue and feed it to the dogs!"

"So, is that young master so scary?" Liang Dashan swallowed, he had never seen Fang County magistrate so bewildered.

Fang Qingyuan smiled wryly and said: "Not only is he scary, but his ability to torture people is simply terrific!"
