"I will find a way to solve this matter, no need to say more." Chu Chuyan said coldly.
"You think of a way, what can you do?" Chu Tiesheng said disdainfully. Just when he was about to continue talking, he felt that the temperature in the room had dropped several degrees. Knowing that she was really angry, he did not dare to step on it anymore.
Nose to face, "Well, let me see what you can do to solve it."
After saying that, he walked away.
Chu Yuepo on the side also stood up and left with a cold face. Soon, only Qin Wanru and three people were left in the huge meeting hall.
Zu An couldn't help but said: "These guys are going too far. They danced so hard just after my father-in-law was gone. After a while, won't they be going to stir up trouble?"
Qin Wanru explained: "The second and third families have always coveted the power of our lineage and want to replace it. How could they not attack when they have such a good opportunity?"
Ever since she learned that her daughter and Zu An were married, she had abandoned some of her previous unrealistic fantasies and began to try to accept him. In addition, he had just helped her deal with her second uncle and third uncle, so these Chu family
I also gradually told him about private things.
Zu An sighed: "The world is so strange. Sometimes when something goes wrong, relatives are not as reliable as strangers. Even if strangers are not helpful, they will not hurt you."
Qin Wanru said in a deep voice: "It's useless to talk about this now. The most urgent thing is to think about how to solve this matter."
Chu Chuyan said: "It's better to raise money first and redeem my father first."
"But sixteen million taels, how can we raise it?" Thinking of that astronomical figure, Qin Wanru couldn't help but feel a little pessimistic.
Chu Chuyan also fell into silence. Over the years, the Chu family had been repairing holes everywhere. In addition, they had spent a lot of money everywhere, so they had not saved much savings.
It turned out that the Giant Whale Gang was wiped out a few days ago, their salt business improved, and their income began to continue to grow, but this happened.
Salt production is illegal, and now their salt is defined as private salt, and their cash flow has been cut off.
Unless they sell their land, what's the point of the Chu family's hard work and insistence on preserving their ancestral property?
If all the ancestral property is sold, the Chu family's faith will collapse, and then the Chu family will really be finished.
Zu An said: "I still have two to three million taels of silver here, which I can use to save my father-in-law. Unfortunately, the Plum Blossom Gang has been destroyed before, and the 7.5 million taels owed to me cannot be counted on. Otherwise, at least half of the silver taels can be solved."
Chu Chuyan was shocked: "Where did you get so much money?"
In fact, she also knew a little about the deal between Zu An and the academy. The Plum Blossom Gang didn't give him much real money at the beginning, so why did it suddenly have two to three million taels now?
Zu An said proudly: "Your husband and I are very capable and can even recruit you, so making this little money doesn't mean anything."
Chu Chuyan's face turned red and she hurriedly spat: "Not serious."
At the same time, he glanced at his mother guiltily,
Qin Wanru was not angry this time, but said with some emotion: "Azu, thank you for choosing to help the Chu family when they were in danger. Chu Yan was indeed right. But our Chu family will not use the son-in-law.
If private money is spread like this, it will really become a laughing stock for everyone."
Zu An was speechless. It sounded like a big family in ancient times was embarrassed to use the woman's dowry. How long has it been since they still cared about these vain efforts to save face?
At this time, Qin Wanru said again: "Azu, you should go back and rest first. Chu Yan and I still have some things to discuss."
Zu An had never wanted to get involved in the affairs of the Chu family, and he was not interested in the details. He felt relaxed and happy when she said this.
Not long after she went out, she ran into Chu Huanzhao. When she saw Zu An, she rushed over with a cry: "Brother-in-law, can my father never come back?"
Some of the guards on the side saw the two hugging each other so intimately, and turned around silently as if they hadn't seen them.
The main reason is that the two of them had too many intimate behaviors during this period. Even the madam and the eldest lady didn't say anything. Naturally, they, who are living people, would not say anything.
The key point is that this time, the second young lady took the initiative to throw herself into my uncle's arms...
Speaking of which, what kind of magical power does this guy have? Although he is a little handsome, it is not earth-shattering. How on earth did he make the eldest lady fall in love with him and the second lady be so obsessed with him?
What's even more confusing is that even his wife seems to be much nicer to him recently.
Oh, I am so envious and jealous!
Zu An looked at the series of anger levels in the background and thought to himself, these guys are pretty good at pretending. There is nothing visible on their faces. They are probably drawing circles and cursing me behind their backs?
But can you be more angry? It’s all a series of single-digit anger values.
I don't even dare to indulge my anger, no wonder I can only watch me eat and drink spicy food.
If he says this, the anger level he receives will skyrocket.
However, countless experiences and lessons have taught him to weigh which anger is worth the gain and which anger is worth the gain.
Gently patting the trembling petite body of the girl in his arms, Zu An comforted him: "Don't worry, your dad will be fine."
"But I heard that the matter this time is very serious. I'm afraid it won't be so easy." Chu Huaizhao wiped his tears and said still worried.
"Your father is so powerful, he will definitely be able to turn danger into good." Zu An helped her wipe the tears on her face, "Besides, your mother and sister are also trying to save him."
"But I see that my mother and sister have very sad faces. I have never seen them look like this. They must be very pessimistic about rescuing dad." Chu Huanzhao still looked sad.
Why did this little girl become as sentimental as Lin Daiyu?
Zu An smiled and rubbed her head: "Even if you don't believe in your mother and sister, you should believe in me. I will also find a way to save my father-in-law."
"Really?" Chu Huanzhao suddenly turned from worry to joy.
Zu An nodded: "Of course it is true."
"Brother-in-law is the best!" Chu Huanzhao suddenly changed his sad expression and jumped up and down happily.
Many of the guards on the side were dumbfounded. The second young lady didn’t even believe the madam and the eldest young lady, but she believed in her uncle?
What kind of ecstasy soup did this guy pour into the second lady?
"I'm really useless. I only know how to play on weekdays. If something happens, I can't help my mother and sister. I can't even compare to you." Chu Huanzhao suddenly looked sad.
Zu An: "..."
What do you mean you can't even compare to me?
"You are still young. When you grow up, you will naturally be able to help." Zu An comforted him.
"Really?" Chu Huaizhao blinked with a suspicious look on his face, obviously he was quite knowledgeable about his abilities.
"Of course it's true." Zu An said with certainty. This girl has been compared with her sister since she was a child, and naturally she has lost her confidence, so appropriate encouragement is still needed.
"Brother-in-law is so kind~" Chu Hua hugged his arm with a sweet smile on his face.
Feeling the soft touch from her arm, Zu An looked a little strange. She seemed to have gained weight during this time...
It took a long time to comfort her. Zu An returned to his yard and found old man Mi watering the flowers in the yard.
"This guy is a flower farmer on the surface, but he is actually a scary old Yinbi." Zu An cursed, but still had a bright smile on his face, "Hello, senior."
Old Man Mi hummed and looked at him and smiled, but it looked a bit scary with his ugly face.
Zu An asked: "By the way, senior, something happened to the Chu family recently. You are so capable, can you help solve it?"
He thought that since the other party chose to live in seclusion in the Chu family, he might not be a senior expert of the Chu family, or had any friendship with the ancestors of the Chu family. Naturally, he would not sit idly by and ignore it. With his cultivation level, if he was willing to help, it would be easy.
many.
Old Man Mi shook his head: "The Chu family's thousands of years of heritage cannot be destroyed so easily."
Zu An thought about the truth of this. Can't the foundation of thousands of years be finished?
After much deliberation, I can't think of anything else the Chu family can do. Sixteen million taels. Even the four major families in Mingyue City together may not be able to come up with so much cash.
"Don't worry too much. Why does the dignified Chu family need your son-in-law to save it?" Old Man Mi snorted, "What's more, to me, the entire Chu family together is not as important as you. You
The first priority now is to take care of yourself and don’t do anything dangerous.”
After saying that, he left by himself, obviously not wanting to hear him continue to beg him to save the Chu family.
Zu An felt numb after hearing this. Could this guy be confessing his love to me?
Disgusting...
At night, Zu An went to Qingyin Pavilion several times, but Chu Chuyan never came back.
Zu An quietly went to the meeting hall and found that it was brightly lit and people were coming in and out from time to time. Many of them were close associates of the Chu family.
It seems that Chu Chuyan is thinking of ways to save the Chu family.
Zu An couldn't help but feel heartbroken. His wife was beautiful and capable, and the most important thing was that she was so capable. But being too good also had its disadvantages. She had to bear a lot of things that she shouldn't have to bear at such a young age.
In the previous life, a girl of this age was enjoying her youth wantonly, surrounded by a lot of licking dogs, and her life was very comfortable, but it was not as hard as hers.
Zu An finally fell asleep while waiting in Qingyin Pavilion. Early the next morning, he was woken up by Chu Chuyan: "Azu, please go out with me."
