Mu Wangfu, the Duke of Qianguo, with the untimely death of the two princes, did not make the Mu family's family background have the slightest sign of weakening, the current head of the family Mu Sheng is still one of the few feudal officials of the Ming Dynasty, Wuxun is slightly weaker but Wenzhi and his father and brother can be called in the same line, and the town of Yunnan has been repeatedly praised by the imperial court.

However, because Mu Sheng and his wife have not been in the capital for a long time, Mrs. Mu, who has never liked mundane affairs, has no heart to take care of family affairs, and some rumors have gradually spread that are not good.

On the second day of the first lunar month, everyone in the Mu Mansion was looking forward to the return of the young lady and the uncle, and the family general Bai Zikong took the treasure bill of five hundred taels and walked into the door of his sister-in-law's house.

Bai Zikong's own brother died in Annan, because he was born handsome, when his brother was alive, he and the concubine Sun sneakily got into hand, and last year the sister-in-law Li also died of illness, so the family property left by the brother and sister-in-law was sold out, and he got three thousand taels of silver, and opened a big oil and salt shop in the capital.

The Sun family wants to marry him wholeheartedly, and has won the trust of Mrs. Mu in the inner house, Bai Zikong's business relies on her help, and the two have recently begun to put up official accounts. Gui Da, the director of the Ministry of Works, borrowed 800 taels of silver from him, and after three months, he unknowingly transferred nearly 2,000 taels.

With the Mu family as a backer, he is not afraid that Master Gui will not repay the money, today Bai Zikong went to collect five hundred taels, which is also the road of endless people, forcing Gui Da, who has no way, to be promoted, and he wants to be released as a prefect, and plans to use the mansion to repay the debt.

It was Bai Zikong who came to report the good news, but Sun didn't care much about money, she was counting on living with a man. Bai Zikong said to the Sun family: "The one in the family will not agree, let's let it go in advance." ”

Sun said: "It's easy, you take her to me, I have my own ideas to convince, if you want to make money, she has to nod and agree." ”

After picking up the white lady, Sun said: "Everyone earns money together, and everyone enjoys it together." If you exchange clothes with me and worship sisters, then the family will not speak two words, or I will ask my wife to take back my family's money, and everyone will live their own lives from now on, and they will not associate with each other in old age and death. ”

When the white lady saw the money, she also knew that there was already some trouble between her husband and her, so she agreed without thinking too much.

Bai Zikong was overjoyed, and during the meal, he discussed the matter of Guida. Sun said: "I went to his house yesterday and listened to the sisters-in-law at home. Lord Gui borrowed Lord Xia's silver to make a coil. I don't think this situation will follow our long ticket. ”

The white lady said: "According to my idea, don't want the house first, relax him, and write down a short ticket of four thousand taels of silver, and then change the long ticket after returning the silver, there is the Mu family and the Xu family, I am not afraid that he will not take our way."

Xia Yuanji himself has a clean breeze on his sleeves, how can he have all this silver to help him? I think Master Gui is only in his thirties. Let's use some means casually to lure him into the bait, and put the money in the place through him, and don't get it for twenty or thirty thousand taels of silver? ”

Sun smiled: "You see that money is easy to come by, but it is actually difficult." In the past six months, even if the Mu family is the backer. There are also officials who turn their faces and refuse to admit their accounts, but in the end, it is still the Xu family's signboard that works. But your idea is not bad, don't go into the tiger's den to get the tiger? Go out and give the officials and men a sleep, even if you are a court scholar, you have to obey your orders honestly. bullied the woman of the Mu family, and my uncle still had to kill him alive? ”

The white lady smiled: "Then Master Gui will let my sister come forward." ”

Sun smiled and said, "Master Gui knows me." I'm afraid it's not uncommon, and I have to have my sister go out, or we will accompany him together, and no one will suffer. ”

Suddenly, a maid outside shouted, "Sister-in-law Sun." The young lady entered the house. ”

Sun and the White Lady hurriedly got up and ran out of the city, a large group of women were already waiting, and they hurriedly walked into the crowd with their heads down. Later, when the sedan chair arrived, Mu Ningxue came out slowly, and the nurse behind her hugged Xu Yu, who was less than a year old.

The women stepped forward to say hello, Mu Ningxue responded with a smile, and when Xu Hao came over, the couple were surrounded and entered the inner house.

Mrs. Mu took Xu Ye's little hand and waited for them with a smile, Mu Ang's wife was none other than Xu Hao's cousin Du Qianqian.

When Xu Hao was overseas, Qianqian married Mu Ang, and the couple were in Yunnan for the past two years.

The family naturally met and was affectionate, and Xu Hao nodded to Zhenqing who was standing on the side.

Today, his cronie Zhu Gao came over, and in front of the second gate, Bai Zikong walked over to say hello, and he had to drag him to eat and drink.

Zhu Gao said: "I can't leave, what if I have something to explain when I go to the room?" ”

Bai Zikong said with a smile: "It's the wing room in the courtyard next door, if there is something to call the boys, it's over." ”

"That's fine." Zhu Gao casually confessed a few words, and followed him to the small courtyard next door, which is a place to entertain his followers, next to a hot Datong kang, a boxy table, four chairs, two long benches, and some calligraphy and paintings on the wall, which is also a place used by the people below to eat and entertain friends.

There was no one in the house, so Bai Zikong asked Zhu Gao to sit down and asked the little servant to pour him a cup of tea. At this time, the white lady twisted her waist and walked in, and as soon as she entered the door, she smiled and said: "You haven't come to see me these days, you have lovesickness, don't you have a fever in your ears?" I've cursed you all the time. ”

Zhu Gao said awkwardly: "My ears don't burn, my eyes don't jump, it's not good for you two to miss me." ”

The white lady smiled: "What you said is not enough friends, dare to love us, how can we only recognize money?" One day husband and wife for 100 days, not to mention that we are not only one day or two days. ”

Bai Zikong continued: "It's not that my little brother is too talkative, my grandmother hasn't seen my brother come for a few days, so she thinks about something, and she can't stop thinking about it." ”

Zhu Gao smiled: "That's it, what do you say?" It's the matter of the Ministry of Industry Gui again, right? ”

At this time, someone came in outside, the three of them stopped, and the person who came was the steward of the Xu family, and said: "Twenty people have gone back, and the remaining ten people are eating in the house, and the sedan chair man has also been arranged, I wonder if the young master will go out in a while?" It's good to leave some people waiting for the young grandmother. ”

Zhu Gao groaned: "I said that I would stay tonight, but I didn't say that I was going to go out." In this way, you let the big guy rest first, they play with money, you look at it, don't quarrel and explain it, even if the young master goes out, he won't take too many people with him, and four guards are enough, you go. ”

When the others left, Zhu Gao said: "I'm in a mess, if you have something to say, say it quickly." ”

Bai Zikong came in with a red lacquered basin by himself, and Zhu Gao had no choice but to wash his hands. The white lady handed him her sweat towel to wipe his hands, and by the way, he looked at his head and tidied up his temples.

The two little guys came in with food boxes and placed them on the kang table, and Zhu Gao asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Bai Zikong explained: "There is no one to eat in the big kitchen, so I asked someone to go to the inner house to ask for a few snacks, and we will talk while eating." ”

The white lady sat beside Zhu Gao with a grin, not caring about her husband in front of her, and the three of them pushed the cup and changed the lamp. After eating for a while, Zhu Gao said, "Say it." Do you want silver or a long ticket? ”

The white lady casually unbuttoned the two buttons on her chest and said, "I want silver, and I want a long ticket." ”

"I don't understand that?" Zhu Gao stared at the woman's white breasts.

The white lady said: "Doesn't Master Gui owe more than a thousand taels of silver? In fact, the silver is not our family's, and I have been forced to death on this journey. No, I found another family's silver for Master Gui and lent him four thousand taels, so I repaid our short ticket and asked him to carry a long ticket.

That family is also a grandmother, who can't go out, and the money is run by the magistrate of the Mu family outside the city. It was I who repeatedly begged him for permission to have a favor, and then I agreed. You helped Master Gui come out, signed the ticket in front of the magistrate, and the matter was done. I'll go to Master Gui in a few days, I'm not afraid that he won't come up with one or two thousand silver, anyway, I have nothing else, rely on this body to serve you. All things are taken care of by you, and it will be over. ”

Zhu Gao shook his head and said: "Don't fool me, that grandma must be your second sister-in-law's grandchildren, and you are shrewd one by one." At first, it was on her face. You look up to my Lao Zhu again, and secondly, you read Lao Bai's affection and helped you introduce Gui, who is waiting for money.

He is timid and does not say anything, and he is restrained, and he is worried that he can't afford to pay back the 2,000 taels of short tickets, so you ask him to borrow another 4,000 taels for 2,000 taels of short tickets, and he can't do it if he kills him, this thing is not feasible. In case he forces someone out of a bad way, and is known by the young master, I can't save my life, don't want to live, once his temper explodes, thousands of lives will not blink. ”

The white lady smiled: "Since you guessed, then stay at home for one night tonight, and we will serve you a great pleasure, and you can play any tricks." I don't care, the second sister-in-law has fine skin and tender flesh and is snow-white, and even my aunt has to take a few more glances every time he comes. ”

"Here?" Zhu Gao was suddenly moved, and his eyes rolled and said: "This matter still has to be on your concubine, Gui is good at everything, but he is lustful, if it wasn't for satisfying the outer room, he wouldn't have borrowed a loan shark in the first place." Ming'er, I'll talk to him, your white lady personally invited him to dinner and discussed the matter of repaying the money, he will come when he hears it, and Lao Bai won't have to see him.

The location is set outside, the two of you are dressed up, accompany him to eat and drink, and try your best to have fun with him. Is the lady of King Mu's mansion easy to bully? ”

In the flower hall of the inner house, the well-dressed Sun stepped forward with a basin of water in his own hands, and after Xu Hao cleaned his hands, he couldn't help but glance at her.

To say that the woman is not very beautiful, but the slender eyes, plump lips, thin and long neck, narrow waist, and straight buttocks belong to the kind of mature young woman who is very coquettish and soft, and a man will think of it at a glance.

In fact, this kind of woman who is born with a foxy appearance, Cuiliu is undoubtedly far superior to the Sun family, I don't know how many Xu family men are the object of obscenity, relatively speaking, Ning Xue gives people an awe-inspiring and inviolable feeling.

But men are like this, when they meet a woman with special characteristics, they will always subconsciously take a few more looks, and it is not bad to nourish their eyes.

Sun pursed his lips and smiled, and turned around in a charming manner. At this time, my cousin Du Qianqian said in disgust: "I heard that she has a leg with her brother-in-law, and she also puts money in private, and the Mu family's style has been ruined by these shameless sluts." ”

Xu Hao glanced at his cousin, the simple and kind girl in the past is no longer naïve after marrying a wife, and she has no scruples when it comes to talking between men and women.

What Jia Baoyu said is not unreasonable, the girl was born to be made of water, but after getting married, she was stained with mud.

Mu Ningxue frowned and said, "Is there such a thing?" ”

Du Qianqian said: "My husband and wife and my second brother and sister-in-law are far away in Yunnan, since my sister-in-law did not help take care of the family, the people below saw that the wife was stern, but in fact, it was best to fool, and gradually became unpleasant." ”

Xu Hao knew that after all, his wife was the daughter-in-law of the Xu family, and her mother's affairs were not nosy, so he said: "It's just a few moths, entrust the family to Zhiqing's father or trusted elders, punish when you should be punished, and get rid of the people who should be thrown out, I will call the shots for them, see who dares to talk more?"

The big family is like this, it is inevitable that the good and the bad in the family are uneven, and the two of you don't have to worry too much, do you live a good life, good and bad things can't be avoided. ”

Du Qianqian said happily: "I think so too, it's good to have a cousin come forward, even if there is a decent old man in front of my wife, and when the time comes, her old man's baby aunt will insist, but she won't say anything." ”

Mu Ningxue hurriedly said: "After the first month, it's best not to make people panic and embarrass my mother." (To be continued......)
