Chapter 2879 leave a suspense
Zhou Xia glanced at Luo Fengtang very unhappily and said: "You are so tall and henpecked to such an extent that I am panicking for you!"
Luo Fengtang said disapprovingly: "I'm happy, stop talking nonsense and get down to business!"
Zhou Xia frowned and looked at Yang Ruoqing reluctantly this time.
I saw that Yang Ruoqing had found a stool and sat down on it, with her legs crossed.
I even had melon seeds with me, and I sat there eating them leisurely.
Zhou Xia rolled her eyes...
"Stop rolling your eyes. You're not rolling your eyes in ecstasy. You look like a hanged man. If you have something to say, say it quickly! If you have something to say, hurry up!" Yang Ruoqing spat out a mouthful of melon seed shells on the ground and waved her hands.
Zhou Xia said: "You lend me one hundred taels of silver, and I will help you do something that makes you feel happy. It's about the Cao family."
Yang Ruoqing looked at Zhou Xia, "Tell me first, what's the matter? I have to see if the pleasure you did brings me is worth a hundred taels of silver."
"We can't reveal it. If we reveal it, we won't feel happy and won't be surprised." Zhou Xia said.
Yang Ruoqing smiled, "If you spit on the door of Cao's house, or splash a scoop of urine on their courtyard wall, the pleasure this would bring to me would be worth ten cents at most."
Zhou Xia's face darkened, "I wouldn't do that kind of thing. It's too mean and insults my image."
Yang Ruoqing smiled even brighter, "What other image do you have? You're just a good skin wrapped in a bunch of shit!"
"you……"
"What am I?" Yang Ruoqing stared back.
"You are the one borrowing money from me now, and it is my grandson who is borrowing the money. Please be honest with me!" Yang Ruoqing continued.
Zhou Xia gritted her teeth and held back her anger.
"Okay, I can only reveal one thing, it's about Cao Tingting, the second young lady of the Cao family. I can't say more about the rest. Anyway, you will know when the time comes. I guarantee you will be happy!" Zhou Xia said.
Yang Ruoqing raised her eyebrows and suddenly guessed something.
She nodded and said: "Okay, in that case, I will give you thirty taels of the one hundred taels of silver as a deposit first, and the remaining seventy taels of silver will be paid separately after the matter is completed."
"Of course, if things get messed up or make me very unhappy, you have to spit out the thirty taels of silver to me, otherwise, I will sell you to a brothel. I will let you go when I have earned enough one hundred taels.
Come out and do what you say!"
Zhou Xia looked at Yang Ruoqing angrily and helplessly, struggled for a moment, "Okay, bring me the money!"
Yang Ruoqing smiled again, "I heard from Tang Yazi that you borrowed this money from your man?"
Zhou Xia nodded, "Yes, we want to open a shop on the street. After calculation, the cost is about sixty taels of silver. Including other turnovers, having one hundred taels on hand will make you feel more at ease."
Yang Ruoqing said: "What about your man? Why don't you see him?"
Zhou Xia said: "He went out to collect debts. He is too cowardly. He made some money by doing small business, but some rogue relatives lent it to him, and they never paid it back!"
Yang Ruoqing said: "I can't give you thirty taels of silver. I asked your man to come back and go to the inn to get it from me."
"Yang Ruoqing, how could you bully me like this?" Zhou Xia shouted.
This call alerted the old woman who was on the defensive line in the opposite house.
The old woman stood at the door of the house and looked in, but did not come in.
Yang Ruoqing then said to Zhou Xia: "Zhou Xia, I don't believe in your character. Maybe you used the guise of borrowing business capital for your man, and then you took the money and ran away?"
"I can't!" Zhou Xia said loudly.
She raised her finger and pointed at the old woman standing at the door of the house, peeping her head but not daring to enter the house, and said to Yang Ruoqing: "Ask her, her son and I have been back for more than a month, have I run away? Every day is peaceful and peaceful.
We’re living our lives separately, doing laundry and cooking!”
Yang Ruoqing was a little surprised, and then looked at the old woman.
The old woman nodded slightly and said, "I'm still calm now and haven't run away."
These words made Yang Ruoqing laugh, but made Zhou Xia even more angry.
"What do you mean you didn't run away? Please pay attention to what you say!" she yelled at the old woman.
The old woman smiled at Zhou Xiaqian, "My old lady is telling the truth. Wife, please don't yell. The neighbors are listening to our jokes..."
Zhou Xia was so angry that she rolled her eyes again. She had gotten to this point, and the dignified Princess Xuewu was sold by a trafficker to an old man in his early thirties who was doing a small business for ten taels of silver. Her face had long been gone, and she could still
Are you afraid of being laughed at?
Here, Yang Ruoqing ignored Zhou Xia, whose chest was heaving violently with anger, and turned to the old woman and said, "Auntie, when will your son come back?"
The old woman said: "I went out to collect debts early in the morning, I'm afraid it will take most of the night."
Yang Ruoqing said: "Okay, then wait until he comes back and ask him to find us at the inn where we are staying, and we will lend him money to do business."
The old woman's face was full of surprise and gratitude, and she nodded repeatedly.
…
Zhou Xia's mother-in-law, the old woman, gratefully sent Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang out. When they were at the gate of the courtyard, Luo Fengtang went over to turn the carriage around.
The old woman was waiting on the roadside with Yang Ruoqing. The two of them were talking, and the topic was naturally about Zhou Xia.
"Auntie, how did my cousin become your daughter-in-law? She didn't even explain it carefully. We are all in the dark."
The old woman was grateful for the generosity of Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang. When she heard this question, she hurriedly said: "This daughter-in-law was bought from a trafficker for ten taels of silver by my son when he went to Changhuaizhou to do business.
.”
"How did she end up in the hands of human traffickers?" Yang Ruoqing asked again.
Could it be that a person went to the capital to find the old concubine of the King of Xiangyang and fell into the hands of human traffickers while passing through Changhuaizhou?
The old woman's voice sounded again, bringing Yang Ruoqing back from her thoughts: "I'm not very clear about this. When my son comes to the inn to find you, you can ask him again. Maybe he knows."
Yang Ruoqing curled her lips and continued: "My cousin used to be a proud and arrogant person at home. Do you think she can stay in your house and be your wife with peace of mind?"
Upon hearing this, the old woman suddenly became a little worried and said: "Miss Yang, you guys, don't you want her family to come and take her back? Don't, she is my son who spent ten liang
I bought it with money,"
"Although there is no official matchmaker, she is really my daughter-in-law,"
"If, if you feel that you have wronged her in this way, when my son makes money, I will ask him to buy wine and meat and go to Zhoujia Village during the Chinese New Year. This will be a serious marriage, okay? I just ask him.
You must not take her back..."
