"How much money does he owe you?" Mrs. Ning didn't even want to shout. She pointed to Mr. Ning and asked Zhao ba.

Zhao BA was so kind with a smile that he stretched out two fingers and said, "twenty thousand taels."

Twenty thousand taels? Ning's family are all surprised to stare big eyes, pour to inhale a cool air.

They would never have been frightened by 20000 taels before, because they had them at that time, but now they don't have them. The 20000 taels have become a huge number in their eyes.

The second master Ning also looked at Zhao BA in shock. "When did I borrow so much silver?"

In his impression, he didn't borrow so much.

Zhao Ba tossed a stack of IOU and said, "this IOU has the words you signed by second master Ning. We didn't give you much credit for the painting."

Ning Ruyu of the side hall grits her teeth with anger. The second uncle owes 20000 taels of silver to the gambling house. He has defeated all the money in the public. The 10000 taels of silver that grandma took out is not enough to pay the gambling debt to him at all. If the whole family can make up the money, why should they? This is a debt owed by the second uncle. He has lost all the money in his family. Why should the family help him pay his gambling debts?

"Can you show me the IOU?" Master Ning maintained his manner as a master.

"Yes." Zhao Ba directly handed out the IOU in his hand. The IOU was in duplicate, and the other one was in their casino. He was not afraid that master Ning would tear the IOU. Master Ning is a scholar and master of the whole family. He should not be able to do such shameless things.

The porter took the IOU from Zhao Ba and sent it to master Ning.

Master Ning took one and looked at it one by one. Each IOU was one thousand Liang, and there were twenty. Each one had the second's signature and handprint. He can recognize the handwriting of the second child. The signature is his, and it's not fake. It's written in the IOU that borrowing money is two cents. So to be exact, it's not twenty thousand taels of silver, but twenty thousand and four hundred taels of silver.

After master Ning finished reading one by one, Zhao Ba asked with a smile, "what's wrong?"

They are serious gamblers, so there is no problem with these IOU. Since two years ago, the government has been cracking down on cheating in casinos. Undercover agents often go to gambling houses to investigate, so now they dare not cheat. They didn't cheat, but Ning Er Lao can still lose so much money in their gambling shop. It can only be said that Ning Er Lao's luck is really bad.

In fact, the second master Ning won at the beginning, but after he won, he didn't know how to stop and began to lose. The more he lost, the more he wanted to win. Without money, he borrowed from their gambling house. Unconsciously, he borrowed so much money and lost so much money.

Master Ning took a deep breath and said, "it's not wrong."

Mrs. Ning, Mrs. Ning and Mrs. Ning were expecting that there was something wrong with the IOU, so they had reason not to return it, or less. But master Ning's sentence "is not wrong." They broke all the expectations in their hearts.

"Since you are right, please return the silver! We can go back to work. " Zhao Ba said, "the Ning family has a great career. This little silver is nothing to the Ning family."

Twenty thousand taels of silver is nothing to anyone's house.

Ning family is to face, even if the home is empty, also don't want to let outsiders know. Don't want to let this matter be spread out, let people know that their Ning family is down.

Naturally, the money should also be paid back. Otherwise, it will be the Ning family who will be shamed and ridiculed, and it will also have an impact on the people who are preparing for the imperial examination.

Master Ning said with a black face: "you wait, we'll go to prepare the silver."

"Good." Zhao Ba replied with a smile.

Mr. Ning picked up the old lady. Mrs. Ning and Mr. Ning followed him out of the main hall.
