Autumn is overcast, and there are always no sunny days these days.
Zheng Wuji got up early and came to Xu Chunjun's room to go with her to visit his mother and grandmother in the morning.
Xu Chunjun put on her morning makeup, fresh and charming, like a flower stained with dew.
"It's cold outside, so wear more clothes." Zheng Wuji warned, "It's weather in February and August, so be careful of catching a cold."
Lvchun pursed her lips and snickered. This uncle was really a bastard when he was a bastard. He has changed his ways, but he really knows how to love others.
She has gone to Zi Ling's place several times in the past two days, firstly to see the child, and secondly to tell her that her uncle has really turned around. Unfortunately, Ziling is in confinement and cannot see it with her own eyes.
After hearing this, Zi Ling was so happy that she kept chanting Buddha's name. God knows how much she was looking forward to this day.
After the mourning period for the Wei family, Xu Chunjun put on brighter clothes.
Mrs. Fang looked at her son and daughter-in-law, standing in front of them. They were so well matched, and her eyes were wet with joy.
Now she is truly convinced by Xu Chunjun, so she doesn't care about anything at home.
Xu Chunjun and Zheng Wuji talked for a while in their mother-in-law's room. Sikanda came in and said, "Uncle, grandma, the people from Duke Xinyong's mansion have arrived."
"Oh, who is here?" Xu Chunjun asked.
"It's the fourth young lady of her family," Sikandar said.
Zheng Wuji and Xu Chunjun looked at each other and both smiled.
Mrs. Fang hurriedly said: "We have guests at home, go and entertain them quickly."
She didn't know why Cui Mingzhu came. She hadn't heard anything about the bank because Xu Chunjun didn't allow anyone to reveal information to the old lady and his wife.
They will definitely be anxious if they find out, but it won't help, so it would be better not to let them know at all.
Coming out of his wife's room, Zheng Wuji asked Xu Chunjun: "I heard that the fourth lady of the Cui family is very domineering. Have you ever had any holidays with her?"
"To be honest with the officials, my relationship with her is quite deep." Xu Chunjun said with a hidden smile.
"In that case, let me be the bad guy," Zheng Wuji volunteered, "Just watch."
In fact, not only Cui Mingzhu will come today, but also the Shen family, the Yu family, and Xiang Neishi will send people. It's just that Cui Mingzhu arrived early, and the others haven't arrived yet.
The uncle of the Wang family hanged himself in fear of crime, and his wife and children also committed suicide by drowning themselves in the river. The news was so noisy that the whole capital knew about it.
Although Xu Chunjun and others also reported to the government, the government had no way to deal with it.
After all, the Wang family's remaining property now is less than a few hundred dollars, and there are also a pair of old people who are bedridden.
Firstly, this little money won't help, and secondly, these families are all well-known families. Even if the Wang family owes them money, at this time, they can't lose all their dignity for these hundreds of taels of silver.
Go in.
Only the land deed held by Xu Chunjun was valuable, but it was not enough to compensate these families.
So we all made an appointment to meet at Zheng's house today to discuss what to do.
Zheng Wuji and Xu Chunjun came to the reception room, where Cui Mingzhu was already sitting.
He didn't stand up when he saw them, he just drank tea there.
"Miss Cui Si is here, are you the only one here?" Xu Chunjun asked with a smile.
"Why, am I not qualified?" Cui Mingzhu said coldly. She had never been angry with Xu Chunjun.
If it weren't for the one hundred thousand taels of silver, she wouldn't have visited the Zheng family.
"Miss Cui Si speaks so irritably, is it because the autumn fire is rising? Drink more pear paste and honey to reduce the fire!" Zheng Wuji said with a smile.
"If I don't get angry, what does it have to do with you? Stop talking nonsense, I'm here to talk about business." Cui Mingzhu said with a cold face.
"I have good intentions. Women are most afraid of having strong anger. They get sick easily. People age quickly and become ugly easily. How can this man get married with such an old and yellow face?" Zheng Wuji was not annoyed at all, but his
Every word struck Cui Mingzhu’s heart and lungs.
Women are most afraid of being called old and ugly, and of not being able to get married.
"Didn't everyone say you were dead?" Cui Mingzhu said in a bitter tone, "It's true that good people don't live long, and disasters live for thousands of years!"
"It's not wrong to say that I'm dead. Isn't the me before dead?" Zheng Wuji said and took Xu Chunjun's hand, with a look of tenderness and sweetness on his face, "Now I just take care of my family and love my wife wholeheartedly. The so-called closeness
Zhu Zhechi, who makes my wife the best among all the good things in the world?"
"It's so disgusting! It's not serious!" Cui Mingzhu couldn't hold back and spat.
"Oh, Miss Cui Si, your tutor is really worrying! I know you are the rich daughter of the government, but if you don't know, you think you are a girl who kills pigs and sells meat! Tsk, tsk, tsk, who dares to do this?
Marry into the family?! With this temper and this kind of virtue, you don’t know how to bring misfortune to your family!" Zheng Wuji had a fearful look on his face, which made the servants of the Zheng family who were waiting next to him laugh.
"Fourth Miss, don't be acquainted with him. Wait a moment, and when those others arrive, we will talk about business." At this time, Xu Chunjun still wanted to be the peacemaker.
Otherwise, Cui Mingzhu will be angry and the matter will not be discussed today, and others will inevitably be unhappy.
Although Cui Mingzhu has a quick temper, she can also distinguish the serious from the serious.
What's more, she is no longer favored in front of her father, and she is trying to take credit in front of her father through this incident.
So he just snorted and said nothing more.
Zheng Wuji smiled crookedly, sat down to drink tea, and stopped talking.
Of course he knew that he couldn't anger Cui Mingzhu all at once. Remember when Kong Ming was angry with Zhou Yu, it would take three times before he died of anger?
All he needs to do is help Xu Chunjun achieve his goal.
After a while, the other three families also came one after another.
The person coming to the Yu family this time is Mr. Yu, who is more gentle and steady than his second brother.
The Shen family is coming from their young master's house. After all, this matter has to be brought to the table, so it would be inappropriate to send a butler here.
Xiang Neiji still did not show up this time, but his godson, Eunuch Yufu, came.
"Everyone, please take a seat! If there is a place where the hospitality is not good enough, let's discuss what to do about this matter today." Xu Chunjun said openly.
"To be honest, this is a difficult problem." Eunuch Yufu spoke first, "My adoptive father has said that the one hundred thousand taels of silver is not his own. There must be an explanation."
"Who doesn't want an explanation?" Others are afraid of Xiang Neiji, but Cui Mingzhu doesn't care. After all, her sister is a concubine. "Let's hear what the person holding the land deed plans to do!"
Everyone naturally turned their attention to Xu Chunjun and Zheng Wuji, wanting to hear what their plans were.
"Everyone knows the current situation of the Wang family. As the saying goes, debts will never die until death, and it is also said that the debts of the father and the sons will be repaid. But these two things have no effect on the Wang family. Their family now has neither money nor people. I have seen it.
It’s limited, so I can only think of two ways. Let’s talk about it, let’s listen and come up with an idea together.”
