The splendid years of a talented lady

Chapter 48 Solve One

"No money?" Su Xiazhi raised her hand and began to untie the rein on the mule: "It's okay, I'll take this mule away first, and you can send the rest home to me!"

"Miss Su, you can't do it!" Min Qinglan didn't say anything this time, but she was in a hurry to drive the car. He has been raising this mule all this time, and he has been taking care of it carefully. Now it's time for him to be strong and able to work. That's it. He couldn't bear to be pulled away!
"Why not?" Miss Su continued to study how to free the mule.

"This..." The handlebar was so anxious that he lost his mind, his head was sweating: "If you take the mule away, what will happen to Zhou Lizheng's car?"

"It's not a problem!" Miss Su pointed back at Min Qinglan who was standing behind her: "Put her on, whip a few more times, and the car will definitely be pulled back."

What?Put the young lady on the cart?

The handlebar stared blankly at Min Qinglan, who was also in a daze, and felt that his mule was better.Then quickly turned around and continued to bow to Su Xiazhi: "Girl, please be merciful..."

The owner's family, including the young mistress, did not recognize the relatives of the Su family. He knew that Su Xiazhi was married, so he could only call him a girl.

"Repay the money, what do I want this mule to do after paying the money back, and the Min family has no land..." Miss Su didn't want to make it difficult for her to be honest, so when she spoke, she glanced at the elder sister-in-law whose expression kept changing.

34 taels!When this number popped out from the mouth of a fool, no, Su Xiazhi really surprised her.

Three years, 36 months, 950 ren per month for food expenses, that woman actually blurted out that number, how can a person who has such a clear mind and such a clear calculation be a fool? !

It was she who had neglected it. She should have thought that her younger brother, who was above the top, would not be wronged to marry a real fool even if he was a bachelor all his life.

But 34 taels, what can she pay for it?

Although Zhou Lizheng's family is one of the richest households in Xinghua Village, her mother-in-law is the woman who runs the family.Although I never owe them money for food and drink, my hands are extremely tight, and I seldom give my son and daughter-in-law pocket money.

Even if she just bought a needle and thread, she still has to ask her mother-in-law for money. Min Qinglan is really tired of this kind of life with her palms up!However, my husband and son-in-law are also idlers, unable to study well, and farming is not as good as the second uncle, who is raised at home and eats idle food every day, so she can't hold her head up...

She received the money from her brother every month, leaving only enough for him to spend, and she spent the remaining half in pieces. Otherwise, where would she get the money to buy rouge and gouache? To add some face.

Countless thoughts flooded into her mind, and Min Qinglan, who was well-dressed and delicately made up, suddenly calmed down when she met Su Xiazhi's eyes: "You are so bold to slander people and money!"

There is a basis for everything, it is true that she took away the money for so many years, but what she spent, what Lan Sheng spent, has long been a mess, who can figure it out?Besides, as long as she keeps her mouth shut, she doesn't believe that Su can do anything to her!

Thinking of this, Min Qinglan calmed down first.

While arranging the water-red skirt embroidered with plum blossoms with his hands, he said unhurriedly: "The county government is next to it. I don't believe that the county magistrate can't control such a tricky girl like you!"

"Oh, originally, I wanted to let you go because you and my husband-in-law have a less important relationship." Su Xiazhi also stopped moving. The equipment on the mule was too complicated, and she couldn't untie it even after tossing for a long time.

"Now that you put on a face that a dead pig is not afraid of boiling water, then I really won't talk nonsense with you. Let's go and see the official!" After untiing the rope around her neck and throwing it aside, Miss Su walked towards Min Qinglan grabbed her skirt and dragged her to the steps of the county government office: "Thinking that there is nothing I can do with you without evidence? How many people know you? Although Min Lansheng's name is written on the food booklet, the handwriting does not belong to my husband-in-law at all."

"At that time, I will compare my husband's handwriting with the handwriting of your name, what else can't be explained?"

"You took the money, and now I want it from you! 34 taels, the interest will be calculated, and not a penny will be erased!"

"Even if I got the money, it was spent on Lan Sheng a lot. Why should you blame me for it!" Originally, I just wanted to scare Su Xiazhi so that she would stop asking for money from me. The woman seemed useless.

"Hey!" Su Xiazhi stopped and turned her head, looked up and down in Min Qinglan's well-fitting spring outfit and shook her head: "The master here can ask you the money you received in just a few words, as for the whereabouts of the money...Who?" I know where you spent your money!"

"!" Min Qinglan firmly grasped Su Xiazhi's hand that was holding her skirt with both hands, and was stunned... That's right, Master Zhao and Yachai both saw her come to withdraw money with their own eyes, as for whether it was given to Lan Sheng , how does an outsider know?
As long as Lan Sheng killed her and never gave him any money, then she couldn't escape the 30 taels of money.

"If you have something to talk about...can we discuss it?" The chaotic Min Qinglan dared not go to the county government office, she only hoped to persuade Su Xiazhi so that she would not make this matter worse. If it really spread to her in-laws, She managed to overwhelm her brother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and she was afraid that she would laugh at her to death in the future. She was also speechless when it came to her mother-in-law and father-in-law...

"What is there to discuss? Didn't you go out without any money? Now the only valuable thing you have here is this mule. How about I borrow a knife from the officials in the yamen and cut it in half?" Su Xiazhi touched He looked at the animal pulling the cart with his chin and eyes murmuring.

"I can't do it... I can't do it..." Su Xiazhi knelt down just short of the handlebars, "Miss Su, you should discuss it with my young mistress..."

mule cut?Isn't that a dead mule?The handlebar would rather she take the mule away than take its life...

Although Su Xiazhi's words were harsh, she just wanted to scare Min Qinglan away, no matter how bad she was, she would not really cheat the handlebars, so she had to discuss it with Min Qinglan in a 'difficult way'.

The result of the discussion was simple: in the future, Min Qinglan was not allowed to receive any more money from the scholar, and the more than two taels she brought with her this time went to Su Xiazhi. As for the remaining taels owed, I will talk about it later...
