Concubine's three acres of pastoral garden

Chapter 245 Dream (4)
Lian Xiu didn't take it seriously and said: "Oh, he said, his nickname is Wang Shi, and his real name is Wang Tongzhou."

Xianglai looked at him suspiciously, and said, "A mute who sells himself into slavery will have two names?"

Lian Xiudao: "The two names are normal. What's so strange? I asked Mrs. Zhu after I came back, and she said that the name on the deed of sale of Wang Shi is indeed Wang Tongzhou. If you don't believe me, I will ask her for the deed of sale with you to see." .”

Xianglai curled her lips and said, "Forget it, I don't want to see her."

Lian Xiu knew that Xianglai would definitely not want to see him, and he didn't want to bother this trip any more, he said, "Okay, if you confirm it is correct, go to Huikang as soon as possible to raise money for father."

Xianglai looked at them one by one and said, "Well, then I'll make preparations and go tomorrow."

Lian Xiu saw that she got up to leave with the deed, and quickly said: "Oh, by the way, going to Huikang is a very important matter, so I borrowed a few guards from Luo Qian for my father, and asked Jing Sheng to take them to escort you. Father will send them to you tomorrow morning."

Xiang Lai thought: "This old fox doesn't usually look very good, and he has a good eye for things, but you have a wrong eye. This girl has no intention of running away with your things and tidying up your life. It's still long..."

Thinking about it, he said lightly: "Since I am so thankful to my father."

After speaking, he went out and returned to his residence.

In this way, Xianglai set off for Huikang on the second day, besides Huiling and Xu Che, there were a few people sent by Lianxiu.

In order to avoid being followed, she didn't see Yu Zixi or Luo Jinxing before leaving, but asked Xu Che to send a message to the two, telling them to rest assured that with the restraint of money, Lian Xiu would not let Lian Chongxue hurt easily my own.

Lian Xiu didn't seem to care much about it, but after all, a fortune was placed in De Xianglai's hands, and he still felt a little uneasy.

On the night after Xianglai left, Lian Xiu, who had been in the cold war for several months, finally lived in Zhu's house again. Although Zhu was the oldest of his wives and concubines, Lian Xiu could only treat her when something happened. Say.

Mrs. Zhu has always been opposed to asking Xianglai to help borrow money, but Lian Xiu has already done the matter here, and it is useless for her to say anything. Xiudao: "Let her borrow all the money. What else is the master worried about? Isn't there people from Jing Sheng and Jin Yan watching, there must be nothing wrong."

Lian Xiudao: "I think so too. It's just that I've been in charge of the Lian family for more than ten years. This is the first time I've borrowed money from outsiders. I always feel uncomfortable."

Zhu said: "Although borrowing money is disgraceful, after all, the master is regaining the ancestral property for the people. I heard that the old shopkeepers and old guys who did business in Korea in the early years were very happy when they heard the news. If it is going to be developed, it’s not all the master’s credit.”

Lian Xiu felt much more comfortable after being told by her, and lay down and fell asleep while considering his future development.

But not long after falling asleep, he started to have a nightmare and shouted profusely in sweat.

Zhu Shi was awakened by him, pushed him hard and shouted: "Master, wake up, master, wake up..."

Under her pushing and shoving, Lian Xiu finally broke free from the nightmare, sat up suddenly and said in shock: "Lian Ke! Lian Ke..."

Mrs. Zhu also sat up and said: "Master, what are you yelling about? Even Ke has been dead for many years, why are you still like this?"

Lian Xiu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said: "It's been a long time since I remembered it, but for some reason, I kept dreaming about it these two days, just now I dreamed that he came back and asked me for everything I owed him, and also, And let me give him his life!"

Hearing him say this, Zhu Shi also said: "Don't talk about master, I often have such dreams recently. I often dream of Lian Fuxue, wearing pale clothes with chicken blood smeared on them, hugging her. The rooster whose head was chopped off demanded my life, and that person was Lian Fuxue for a while, Lian Xianglai for a while, Ningfang Garden for a while, and Laixiangju for a while, two people dangling around become a person again..."

Having just finished the dream of being murdered by Lian Rui, and then thinking of Xiang Lai who resembled Lian Fuxue, Lian Xiu couldn't help but feel panicked, and sat there silently.

Mrs. Zhu took his arm and said: "They say I want to drive Xianglai out. Her appearance is too scary. Since she came, I dare not go out at night, otherwise if I bump into her, I will feel like I have met her." Like a ghost."

Lian Xiu also said: "That's right, I also had nightmares these two nights because she inquired about those two dead ghosts at the gate of Ningfang Garden the day before yesterday."

Zhu said: "I think she did it on purpose. I don't know why, every time I look at her, I have a gloomy feeling. Master, I think you should send her out of the house as soon as possible after she comes back."

Lian Xiu hesitated, and said: "It's not impossible to let her leave the house, but you can't do it so blatantly, you see before you and Chong Xue made Yang Mengwan force to death, you are not afraid that Xianglai will attack you revenge."

Zhu sighed and said, "Oh, the ones with children are no better than those two without children. See how clean those two are when they die. We don't have to worry about anything. It's good for Yang Mengwan. She didn't let us get anything. Leaving a daughter to make people worry about it!"

Lian Xiu said: "Forget it, it's midnight, don't talk about this anymore, go to bed early."

The husband and wife lay down again, and fell asleep again after the earth-shattering.

Besides, Xianglai, because of the surveillance of Lianxiu, she and Huiling Xu Che were very careful along the way, and after seeing Yuan Dongqi, they didn't talk about anything except borrowing money.

Yuan Dongqi seemed to be used to this business, and he cooperated seamlessly with Xianglai, and Jing Sheng, who followed Xianglai, did not see any flaws.

After Xianglai took the full amount of bank notes in his hand, he rushed to the capital day and night.Fortunately, all they brought back were bank notes, so it was not burdensome to travel.

After returning to Lianfu, Xianglai unloaded a large amount of banknotes in her Laixiangju, and then asked people to report to Lianxiu to pick them up.

Lian Xiu knew that there were too many bank notes, so he brought a few accountants to count them.

Xiang Lai watched with him, until the cashiers finished counting all the bank notes and reported to Lian Xiu that 400 million taels was a lot, Lian Xiu finally felt relieved and ordered someone to send the bank notes to him for the time being. to the main house.

Since the deposit has to be paid in cash, he has to disperse some of these banknotes and exchange them in Huiyuan Banks in various places. Otherwise, such a large amount of silver will be exchanged in Wangdu, and the source of the banknotes will definitely arouse suspicion.

Xianglai watched his men transport the banknotes away, and said worriedly: "Father, the money can be got back only because of the friendship between my daughter and Yuan Dongqi, you must deceive her, otherwise Yuan Dongqi will have to skin her alive .”

Lian Xiu said: "What is Lai'er worried about? Isn't my father betting so much property on Yuan Dongqi's place?"

Xiang Lai said: "But it's just a private equivalent mortgage, and there is no interest on the 400 million taels of silver. If it is exposed, I really can't explain it."
