Chapter 658: Shanda people please prepare 450,000 yuan. We will come to pick it up when the time comes.
Hualan asked, "How did Aunt Kang know that the Duke of Qi was here to deliver the betrothal gift today?"
Mrs. Wang looked a little embarrassed. She went to Kang's house a while ago and couldn't help but show off. However, she knew that her family didn't like her sister, so she didn't invite Mrs. Kang and Wang to her home. But she never expected that her sister and brother-in-law would come uninvited.
Seeing her mother's expression, Hua Lan guessed the whole story. She really didn't know what to say, "Mother, have you forgotten that Princess Pingning doesn't want to see Aunt Kang?"
A few years ago, Prince Kang learned from the Wang family that the Wang family was related to the Duke of Qi, so she shamelessly paid a visit to the Duke of Qi. Princess Pingning knew all about Prince Kang's virtues and did not give in to this snake-hearted man.
The poisonous woman had no face at all, and her words included a gun and a stick, but she almost pointed at the Kang Wang family and shouted the word "Go away"!
The Kang Wang family was so humiliated and humiliated. How could they swallow this bad breath? In the next half year, whenever there was an opportunity, they spread rumors about Princess Pingning, what a jealous woman, Hedong Lion...
Wang suddenly remembered this and said in a panic, "Why did I forget this? What should I do?"
Hualan grabbed her mother who was getting up and asked, "Mom, what are you going to do?"
Wang said, "Take your aunt to the back house to stay for a while, and then let her come out after the princess leaves."
Hua Lan said speechlessly, "With Aunt Kang's temperament, do you think you can persuade her?"
Mrs. Wang said anxiously, "Then later, if your aunt meets the princess and says something unpleasant...?"
With her sister's temperament, she would definitely be able to do such a disgraceful thing.
Hua Lan thought for a moment and said helplessly, "I don't have any good ideas. I'll try my best to hold Auntie back later..."
Aunt Kang walked back to her seat and saw her sister and Hua Lan whispering. She leaned closer and asked curiously, "What are you two whispering about?"
Hua Lan hurriedly laughed and said, "Aunt, we were talking about Mo Lan. It's already this hour and it's not here yet."
Aunt Kang looked around and said, "If you didn't tell me, I almost forgot. After Mo Lan married into the Duke's mansion, things were different. We elders were all here, but she, the concubine, hadn't arrived yet.
Seeing that both Wang and Hua Lan's faces were not so good, they said even more enthusiastically, "Sister, Mo Lan has not taken you seriously since she was a child. Now she has become the eldest wife of San Lang of the Duke of Guo. I'll watch."
Not only does she look down on you, but she also doesn’t look down on a small family like the Sheng family."
Mrs. Wang forced a smile and said, "Mo Lan is heavy now, so if she walks slower, I feel relieved."
Aunt Kang said disdainfully, "Then go out earlier. You are too soft-hearted and easy to talk to. You really can't speak. I will help you deal with her later, otherwise you will rebel in the future..."
Mrs. Wang hurriedly waved her hands and said, "No, it's a big day today. Let's talk about this another time..."
At this time, Wang's personal maid came in and whispered, "The eldest maid of the fourth girl has just arrived at the house to deliver a message. When the fourth girl went out just now, she tripped and contracted the fetus, so she can't come today."
Kang Wang said: "What a coincidence. I heard that Mo Lan has been very busy recently. He walks around outside every day, doing poetry gatherings and incense appreciation gatherings. When something happened at home, he stumbled and even got pregnant.
.If the tire slips accidentally, the Sheng family will be blamed."
Wang's face turned green, and she regretted that she couldn't show off to anyone, so she had to go to Kang's house to show off. This happy day was ruined by Sister Pozui...
At this moment, there was a sudden burst of festive playing and playing outside the house. Mrs. Wang stood up, threw away Mrs. Kang and Wang, and walked to the door of the hall. A maid came forward to report, "Madam, the betrothal gift team from the Duke of Qi's Mansion is about to arrive at the Grand Hall."
It’s at the door.”
Outside the gate of Sheng Mansion, the streets were lined with crowds of people watching the excitement.
"It's only been a few days, but another girl from Sheng Mansion has gotten married?"
"This time it's not a marriage, it's the man who comes to give a betrothal gift."
Passerby A stepped forward and took a look. He could not see the tail of the recruitment team at all. He was surprised and said,
"With such a long team, how much does it cost? Which wealthy family in the capital does the man belong to?"
"Master Qi, the God of Wealth in the Song Dynasty, I heard that he was promoted to 666."
"It turns out he is the God of Wealth, no wonder..."
In front of the gate of Sheng Mansion, a procession of betrothal gifts from the Duke of Qi was greeted. The leader was Li Wei, the matchmaker and Prince Consort, and the couple next to him were the Duke of Qi and his wife. The three of them walked into the Sheng Mansion talking and laughing.
"The groom's betrothal gift...a pair of wild geese from Luo Yeye."
"Ten thousand taels of gold...."
"One hundred thousand taels of silver."
What a generous act, worthy of being the God of Wealth of the Song Dynasty!
When Mrs. Kang and Wang saw a bunch of gold bars and silver ingots passing by, her eyes turned red and she was filled with jealousy!
"Ten farms in the western suburbs of Tokyo."
Half an hour later, Liu Liuliu carried out the betrothal gift and finally came to an end...
Just as Sheng Hong was about to get up and invite the guests to sit down and have a drink, there was a sudden noise outside the door. All the guests looked towards the door and saw a group of big men in green clothes rushing towards the front hall in a menacing manner.
"Who are you, forcibly breaking into the Sheng Mansion in broad daylight?" Hualan's husband-in-law, Yuan Wenshao, was born in the military. Seeing this, he stood up and came to the hall, and stretched out his hand to stop the group of men.
A man in green clothes walked out. He had a short head and triangular eyes, and a sinister face. He knew at a glance that he was definitely not a kind person. He looked at Yuan Wenshao and said, "This is the Sheng family. Let's find Sheng Changfeng, the third son of the Sheng family. You don't seem to be that old."
! Where is Sheng Changfeng? Let’s find Sheng Changfeng and ask him to speak out.”
Everyone in the room focused their attention on Sheng Changfeng. Sheng Changfeng's scalp was a little numb. He walked from behind Sheng Hong and came to the front of the hall. He cupped his hands and said,
"I am Sheng Changfeng, who are you?"
Triangle Eyes looked at Sheng Changfeng for a few times, and knew that it was the right owner he was looking for, so he said, "We are from Changsheng Jieku. You borrowed 150,000 yuan three months ago, and the March deadline has expired. I am here to inform you today."
"
During the Northern Song Dynasty, the financial industry was particularly developed, and the pawn industry was very mature. The institutions that conducted this business were called qiku, also called qianku, jiaku, yinziku, etc.
Sheng Changfeng was a little confused at first. He had never seen any such thing as the Longevity Release. But when he heard the 150,000 yuan and borrowed time, his heart skipped a beat. He stepped forward, held his triangular eyes, and said in a low voice, "You are the Korean government."
Yes, for these 150,000 yuan, you can go directly to the third son of your house and the eldest lady, because it was for her that you borrowed it in the first place! I have already told Mo Lan about this."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Sheng Hong came to the gate and said with an ashen face, "Chang Feng, what is going on?"
Sheng Changfeng hurriedly explained, "Dad, they found the wrong person. I don't know Changsheng Jieku at all, nor do I know this person."
Seeing that his youngest son didn't look like he was lying, Sheng Hong looked into his triangular eyes and said, "This strong man, have you admitted the wrong person?"
Sheng Hong has heard of the name of Changsheng Jieku. The name sounds nice, but what it actually does is loan usury, and the backing behind it is the royal temple Daxiangguo Temple.
Triangle Eyes cupped his hands and said, "This must be from Shanda. Another three months ago, Saburo borrowed 150,000 yuan from the Korean Government's Jieku, and it is due to be returned within three months. More than a month ago, our Changsheng Jieku borrowed 150,000 yuan from South Korea. The government has taken over this debt, and now three months are up. Today I will send a notice to your door. In three days, Shanda people are asked to prepare 450,000 yuan, and we will come to pick it up at that time."
Triangle Eyes cupped his hands to everyone in the room, waved his hand, and led a group of thugs out of Sheng's house.
450,000 yuan!
The heart of everyone in the Sheng family was so excited that they beat half a beat slower.
"Grandma, grandma, what's wrong with you?" Minglan saw the old lady falling straight down, and hurriedly stretched out her hand to hold one arm. The maid Xiao Tao on the side had quick eyes and quick hands, and held on to the other arm to prevent the old lady from falling to the ground.
Sheng Hong hurried forward and found that the old lady fainted from anger, so he quickly ordered the servant to call the doctor.
Seeing that such a big event had happened to the Sheng family, all the relatives and friends said goodbye and left in a very colorful manner. Aunt Kang was so happy that she wanted to sing a song. Before leaving, she took Mrs. Wang's hand and said, "Sister, if money is tight, , Sister, I don’t have a lot of money here, but I can still get one or two thousand guan. I will have someone send it to me when I get back."
Where is Wang's mood at this time and chew the roots of the tongue with Kang Wang, uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhas
At this time, only Qi's mother, Qi's father and matchmaker Li Wei were left in the front hall. Sheng Hong and everyone in the Sheng family had already followed the old lady into the backyard.
She was asked to clean up the mess. Wang was so depressed that she came to her in-laws with a face full of shame and had no words to apologize.
Today, not only was the Sheng family embarrassed, but the Duke of Qi's palace was also implicated. Princess Pingning forcibly resisted the idea of withdrawing the betrothal gift. After saying a few polite words with a cold face, she said goodbye and left the Sheng family.
.....
"Girl, girl, no, something bad has happened." The little magpie quickly ran into the courtyard on its two short legs.
Seeing the little magpie's panic, Ru Lan hurriedly swallowed the apple in her mouth and asked, "What happened?"
The little magpie ‘Bala Bala’ briefly told the story of the loan sharks coming to collect debts, “Girl, if we don’t get 450,000 yuan, will we be kicked out of the house by the loan sharks?”
Rulan asked anxiously, "How did the princess and Duke of Qi react?"
The little magpie thought for a while and said, "The princess and Duke of Qi looked very bad. The lady kept apologizing and left after saying a few words."
Rulan breathed a sigh of relief, but then her eyes burned and she gritted her teeth and said, "Sheng Changfeng is a bastard! Sheng Molan is shameless!!"
A while ago, Sheng Molan behaved like a monster, causing her to be frightened for several days. Now that Sheng Changfeng has succeeded seamlessly, the brother and sister just can't bear to see her!
Ru Lan clenched her fists and swore to heaven that she and Lin Xige would never share the same fate!
"Girl, the old lady has fainted. Would you like to go over and take a look now?" the big magpie on the side reminded in a low voice.
"That's right." Ru Lan put down half of the apple in her hand, pulled the big magpie and rushed to Shouan Hall, "Little magpie, you should follow too. How is grandma doing now?"
The little magpie shook his head and said, "The master personally sent the old lady back to the backyard, but I didn't follow her."
When Ru Lan rushed to the Shou'an Hall, she saw Daddy Zha kneeling in front of the old lady with his head lowered. He glanced at the couch and saw that the old lady had woken up and her face was pale, but her eyes were clear, so the problem should not be serious. Lan walked to the elder sister's side, knelt down, and asked the old lady's health in a low voice. She was relieved to learn that she was just suffering from a sudden attack of the heart. She took a few decoctions and rested for two days, and then she recovered.
From the corner of her eye, Old Mrs. Sheng caught sight of Sheng Hong kneeling beside the couch. If he hadn't been physically weak and would have cursed loudly, it would be terrible to see the good son and daughter he taught, causing such a disaster and losing face in front of all relatives and friends. The only thing she owes is the 450,000 yuan she owes. The Sheng family may go bankrupt because of this, and she will really become a big joke in the elite circle.
Sheng Hong kowtowed and said, "My son's lax discipline caused his mother to fall ill. He really deserves death!"
Old Mrs. Sheng said coldly, "This is a home, not a court. There is no need to talk to me, an old lady, in high-sounding words. The most important thing now is to find a way to solve the debt of 450,000 yuan!"
Sheng Hong said hurriedly, "The doctor just said that although my mother is fine, she needs a good rest. I don't dare to trouble her anymore. My son has already made some plans on this matter and will definitely handle it properly."
Mrs. Sheng said, "Last time, I saw that you had come to a conclusion about Mo Lan. After all, you are not my biological child, so I didn't say anything more.
Now that things are like this, I can't rest assured. Okay, let's go to work, I want to sleep for a while. Come to my place in the evening and discuss how to solve it together."
After everyone left, the old lady waved the maids and servants to leave, and called Sheng Minglan to come forward. She found that her granddaughter was a little unusual today, "You have been absent-minded for a long time. Is there something on your mind?"
"Ah~, no grandma." Seeing the old lady's unwavering expression, Sheng Minglan thought for a while and finally confessed honestly, "Qi Xuan and I wrote a letter saying that his mother would come to propose marriage in three days, but today the third brother thing...."
Mrs. Sheng suddenly sat up, grabbed Minglan's arm, and said, "Qi Xuan? Qi Heng's cousin?"
Sheng Minglan nodded.
After burning the incense, the old lady listened to the story of her granddaughter and Qi Xuan, "In other words, you two have known each other for almost half a year?"
Sheng Minglan lowered her head and hummed softly.
The old lady couldn't help but scolded, "Qi Xuan's mother will come to propose marriage in three days? Why didn't you tell me about such a big thing?!"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Sheng Minglan whispered, "I'm worried that Brother Xuan is joking. I am the concubine of a fifth-grade official, and Brother Xuan is the only son of the Qi family. , how could his mother even look at me..."
Old Mrs. Sheng said, "You are confused! Although I have only met this brother Xuan twice, I can see that he is a calm person.
Now that I have even told you the date, it must be true!
Besides, you said it yourself, you two have gotten along very well after playing polo with Qi Xuan's mother for the past six months..." Suddenly thinking of what happened today, the old lady was shocked. This must have happened.
The news will spread throughout the capital, and when Qi Xuan's mother knows about it, the marriage between Minglan and Qi Xuan...
............
Mrs. Sheng's worries quickly turned into reality. In less than half a day, the Sheng family's joke spread throughout the capital...
After hearing the maid's report, Qi Xuan's mother turned cold and asked, "Where is Xuan'er?"
The maid replied, "Young master is at Yaojiazhuang now."
"Tell him to come back immediately."
Half an hour later, Qi Xuan hurried home and said, "Mother."
Qi Xuan's mother said, "Have you heard about the Sheng family?"
Qi Xuan nodded and said, "I know, it's just Sheng Changfeng who borrowed 150,000 usury. What a big deal."
Qi Xuan's mother looked at her son and snorted coldly, "Why did Sheng Changfeng borrow 150,000 usury? Don't say you don't know the whole story!"
Chi
Qi Xuan's mother was furious. The family tradition of the Sheng family was not good. If it weren't for the fact that Sheng Minglan was dignified, well-behaved and sensible, she would never have allowed her son to marry a concubine of a fifth-rank official.
Now that such a big joke has been made, Sheng Molan's scandal of being pregnant before marriage will definitely be exposed. If his son marries a girl from the Sheng family again, he will be criticized for the rest of his life... "This marriage in the Sheng family
,I disagree."
Qi Xuan frowned and said, "If mother doesn't agree, then I will never marry a wife in this life. And you can't even think about having a grandson!"
"You!" Qi Xuan's mother was so angry that she almost fell down! If it weren't for such a precious son, she would have wanted to kill her. After taking a few breaths, she gritted her teeth and said, "Sheng Minglan has a good appearance and personality, and I do too.
I like it. But there are many girls in the capital who are better than her, why do you insist on marrying her!"
Qi Xuan swallowed the banana and spit out two words, "Beautiful!"
Qi Xuan's mother said, "What else?"
Qi Xuan asked with a strange face, "Isn't this enough?"
Qixuan's mother advised, "It's almost as beautiful as Minglan, let's change to one..."
Qi Xuan said, "Sheng Minglan is the most beautiful!"
What you said makes sense!
After persuading her for a long time, Qi Xuan's mother's head was as big as a bucket when she saw that her son was not marrying anyone other than Sheng Minglan.
Qi Xuan's father came home from fishing and saw his wife covering her forehead and leaning on the incense table, looking helpless. After knowing the whole story, he persuaded her, "This girl Minglan has been under the knee of Mrs. Sheng since she was a child.
As she grew up, although the old lady's character became a bit stubborn, her character was still very good. Sheng Molan has been with her concubine since she was a child..." She turned to her son and asked, "How is the relationship between Minglan and Sheng Molan?"
Qi Xuan said hurriedly, "The relationship between the two is very bad and they don't interact with each other at all. Minglan only has a good relationship with Ru Lan and Hua Lan in the Sheng family!"
Qi Xuan's father nodded and said, "Madam, if you are close to red, you will be red, if you are close to ink, it will be black. If you can have a good relationship with Rulan Hualan, it will definitely be good. Even if you don't believe the rumors, you still have to believe in Brother Heng's vision.
.”
The father and son took turns to analyze and persuade. Qi Xuan's mother thought about her relationship with Sheng Minglan for more than half a year, and finally nodded reluctantly, "But the time for coming to propose marriage has to be moved back. I can't afford to come here now."
That person!"
Qi Xuan nodded hurriedly and said, "Just do what mother said...How about changing it to ten days later?"
Qi Xuan's mother glared at her son fiercely, "I want to eat shit! Two months later!"
"Two months is too long, how about half a month?"
Tears filled the eyes of Qi Xuan's mother. Both father and son were in a panic when they met. Qi Xuan hurriedly agreed. It will be two months later. Then the process of 'six rites' will be done faster...
