Zhou's father and son left Su's house and went to a secluded place. Zhou Guangxu told Zhou Xuan, "you'll look around and find out about the Su family. As for the magistrate, I'll find a way. "

Zhou Xuan whispered: "father, why did the emperor let us come to Suzhou chasu mansion? Mr. Su is an official in the capital, so he should start from the capital. "

"How do you know that the capital is not under investigation." Zhou Guangxu thought that his son was old, and he should know some things. "When the emperor was still hiding in his residence, King Cheng rebelled. Before his downfall, he had a number of treasures transferred. It is said that there are 500000 taels of pancu in this batch of treasure, as well as other things. The emperor has been looking for this money all these years. After so many years of investigation, we finally got to the Su family. Mr. Su and General Liu Wei were general friends, and General Liu was the last to see the treasure. Almost all the people who followed General Liu died, but none of them knew the whereabouts of the treasure. The emperor suspected that the whereabouts of the money might be in the hands of the Su family. But master Su has passed away, and only Lord Su is the most capable person in the Su family. Maybe Mr. Su has some hints or explanations to Mr. Su, but the Su family didn't understand it. "

"If the Su family didn't know it at all, wouldn't it be a injustice to the Su family?" Zhou Xuan asked in a low voice.

Zhou Guangxu nodded, "that's why the emperor sent us to visit secretly. We have to find some clues. If we can eliminate the Su family's suspicion, it is also a good thing. "

"In this case, my son should live in the Su family." Zhou Xuan said.

"No, we can't scare the snake. You're a man. You can't do anything in the Su family. There are many ways to make friends with the young master of the Su family and ask for information. There is no need to live in the Su family. Don't worry. There are arrangements for my father in the Su family. "

"The son will listen to his father."

There are five silver bills on the table, each with a denomination of 1000 Liang. They are all the bills of Hengtong bank in Beijing. You can exchange them for silver if you get any of them. Su Yunxi rubbed his eyebrows. When he met for the first time, he made 5000 Liang. This is too big. Such a heavy ceremony, Su Yunxi held his hands and ironed his hands, which made him uneasy.

"Mom Wen, what exactly does the Zhou family do?"

"Miss Qi, the Zhou family is also the ordinary official's family. There are no high-ranking officials in the Zhou family. Most of them are officials of grade 67, grade 45." Wen's mother said so.

Su Yunxi asked again, "does Mom Wen know something about today's fifth cousin?"

Wen's mother said, "I know something about it. This uncle was disappointed when he failed. He said that he wanted to go out to relax. He had been away for three years. Three years later, he came back and said that he wanted to get married. He even found a good person. Later, he became a biological child and took his wife, children and children to Lingnan. I don't know what happened later. "

How to listen to this is a little confusing. What did Zhou Guangxu go through in those three years? What did you rely on to make a living after going to Lingnan? Say it's through Suzhou, for business? Or why?

"Mom Wen, is the Zhou family in business?"

Wen's mother said, "girl, it's hard for me to answer. No one in this big family has a shop, but they usually let the servants take care of it, and the masters don't show up. As for the Zhou family, this is naturally the case. If the girl asked if her uncle was in business, the maid had heard his wife mention it before, and it seemed that she had not. The Zhou family won't agree. "

Su Yunxi pointed to the five thousand taels of silver on the table. "My cousin didn't do business, and his hand was five thousand taels. Where do you think his money came from? Is it a snatch? "

"Well, I don't know. Maybe I've been in business these years. It's hard to say. "

Su Yunxi shakes his head. Just looking at Zhou Guangxu's temperament, he doesn't look like a businessman. Of course, it is also possible to look out of sight. Su Yunxi gritted his teeth and made a decision, "Mom Wen, you'll go to my cousin's place tomorrow and send these banknotes back. It's too expensive for Yunxi Su Yunxi picked up a silver note, the remaining four were pushed to Wen's mother.

Wen's mother was very embarrassed, "girl, there are many places to spend money in the future. Besides, my uncle also said that it was a gift to meet him. It would be a slap in the face if he went back tomorrow. In this way, the kinship is gone. "

"I understand what you said, mom Wen. I can collect only 1000 Liang instead of 5000 Liang. In short, if you go with Caixia tomorrow, you must get things done properly. "

Mom Wen can't, she has to take orders.

Zhou Guangxu sent off Wen's mother and Caixia, looked at the silver tickets, shook his head and laughed. Zhou Xuan said: "that Su Yunxi good no reason, which has received the gift and sent back."

Zhou Guangxu didn't care, "I was pitying their younger siblings for their mother's death, so I wanted to help them. I didn't expect that little girl was so thoughtful that she doubted our intentions. But the girl is careful. "

"It's not prudence, it's not good or bad. If you don't charge the money, you should return it in the beginning. Instead of waiting for the next day to return after receiving the hand. What do we think of her Zhou Xuan was very angry.

Zhou Guangxu waved his hand, "brother Xuan, you misunderstood Yunxi. At that time, she had no idea how much money I had given her. When she looked back, she was naturally frightened by such a large number. However, she didn't accept it as calmly as others did. On the contrary, she asked people to return 4000 Liang, only 1000 Liang, which was considered appropriate. ""My son doesn't approve of it. If she really wants to quit, she will simply quit. What is Baba's return of four thousand taels

Zhou Guangxu said with a smile: "brother Xuan, if there are one hundred and twenty-one silver notes given by her father, she will take the one hundred taels and return the remaining 4900 taels. It's not that she doesn't know the rules, it's because she knows the rules. The 1000 Liang is the affection of relatives and she is in love with each other. The purpose of returning 4000 Liang is to tell us that she is guilty of receiving it, and she is afraid to accept it, so that we can understand her difficulties. "

"My father said so. Did she do it right?"

"Yes. Xuan elder brother son, officialdom is full of treachery. It's always right to be careful and comprehensive. Just like the emperor bestows on us, we are all people who can't see light. It is always too dangerous to know too much. The emperor's reward, dare not accept, but also can not accept all. Through this means, we can let the emperor understand our intention. "

"My son understands."

"It's good to understand. I need more experience in the future."
