At this time, the sun was setting and the room was a little dark. Standing behind the door, Mrs. Feng happened to be in the darkest place in the whole room.
"Regret?" Feng Shi shook his head, "What's the use of regret? After all, I owe him, and I deserve all the suffering I have now. That's it."
She opened the door and walked out.
Taozhi stood up and went over to close it, "Girl, it's getting late, are we going home?"
"Go back." She stood up and went out, thinking for a moment and said, "Let the carriage bought in the teahouse take my mother back."
It takes nearly half an hour to go back to the outer city by carriage. Feng is going out now, and it will be dark when he gets home.
Taozhi didn't ask any more questions and went out to give orders.
Lending money at interest is not allowed by law. If the Zhou family forced someone to almost die, they would be severely punished. It even brought trouble to the Feng family.
But Chu Yunli didn't expect that Jiang Yaojun was sent to the Yamen office the next morning, and he didn't even come back that day.
However, there is news that half of the Feng family's money for lending money should be distributed to Jiang Yaojun. The problem now is that the Feng family insists that this money was ordered by Jiang Yaojun to join the gambling house.
.So, if the Feng family is responsible for forcing people to die, the Jiang family is also responsible!
When Chu Yunli found out, he couldn't help but sneer.
There are probably no more shameless people in this world than the Feng family.
When the old lady found out about this, she was a little anxious and said, "I'll ask your second uncle to come over and discuss it."
Chu Yunli had already sent someone away. Just as she was about to say something, the concierge outside came to report, "Master Lian is here to visit and wants to see the girl."
If the situation wasn't right at this time, the old lady would probably make fun of her, but at this moment she didn't have much thought, "I just said that I have something to do at home and it's not convenient to see guests."
The concierge left and came back not long after, "Master Lian said that he came here precisely for the uncle's business."
The Lian family is rich and knows many people. The Jiang family has nothing to do, but the Lian family does. Originally, the two families had nothing to do and it was hard to ask for help. But if the Lian family took the initiative to help, things would be different. The old lady was overjoyed and said, "Please come quickly."
!”
Even Shao'an was carried in. He didn't waste any words and leaned forward and said, "Old madam, please don't worry. I have already asked someone about this matter. My uncle should be able to get away unscathed. His original intention of not collecting debts was not to let others know."
The Jiang family paid too much interest, and the petition they sent to the Yamen only recovered their profits over the years."
Indeed!
If Jiang Yaojun knew that the Feng family had paid interest and deliberately forced people to do so, he would not have asked for only five hundred taels. That piece of paper was the evidence to clear the Jiang family.
"Moreover, the Zhou family is lending money for interest, and has told the borrowers more than once that this matter has nothing to do with the Feng family. But there are indeed many people inside who know the inside story, and some even remember that the Jiang and Feng families had dinner together.
"Si, the Feng family has not given any money to the Jiang family in these years." He said in a serious tone, "Those people have already been found by the juniors, and they are just waiting to testify in court."
Hearing this, the old lady felt relieved and her expression softened. "Thank you!"
"You're welcome." Lian Shaoan said modestly, "This is what a junior should do. I have already found someone to go to prison and tell my uncle about this matter. He will be out in less than two days."
After a few more pleasantries, Chu Yunli personally escorted him out.
When they arrived in the garden, Lian Shaoan whispered, "Don't be afraid!"
Chu Yunli pushed the chair and said with a smile, "I'm not afraid."
Lian Shaoan raised his eyes and looked at her expression. The girl in front of him seemed to have nothing to fear. They hadn't seen her for two days, and there was no worry or anxiety in her eyes. She was really not afraid.
After seeing off the people, Jiang Yaoqi and his wife arrived. They were quite worried. After hearing what the old lady said, they nodded and said, "That's good. I still want to go see my elder brother and give him something. I'm sure there won't be anything to eat in there."
It’s not easy to live in.”
The old lady's eyebrows were filled with relief, "Go ahead."
After he left, Mrs. Li couldn't hold her breath and cursed, "I just said that the Feng family is a mess and has no idea what is good or bad. They are kind enough to help but drag us down. They are simply unworthy of human beings."
She scolded her fiercely, and the old lady waved her hands, "Don't say that." She glanced at Chu Yunli suggestively, and she knew that those were her uncle and aunt anyway.
Mrs. Li understood what she meant and didn't take it seriously, "Nianyu is a good person and won't be angry with me."
When mentioning the Feng family, it was inevitable to talk about the past when the two families were in contact. The more Mrs. Li talked about it, the angrier she became. She drank two cups of tea. After she finished drinking Chu Yunlixu's tea again, she paused when she put down the cup.
, "Just now you said that Master Lian helped us...our family has nothing to do with the Lian family, why would he help us?"
The old lady looked at her granddaughter, smiled and drank tea.
Ms. Li thought for a moment and wondered if there was anything else she didn't understand. She was immediately happy and then frowned, "But even the eldest young master seems to have an injury on his leg and is unable to walk. He doesn't like to go out." She looked at her niece and said, "This marriage is about to happen."
...Nianyu, if you don’t want to, just give up and I’ll help you tell the story to the scholar in the bookstore. If it happens, you will be a scholar’s wife.”
Speaking of this, Mrs. Li suddenly remembered that her niece had once said that she was the one she liked, and couldn't help but said, "How did you two know each other?"
"Meet by chance! He's good-looking!" Chu Yunli said seriously.
Mrs. Li slapped the table and said, "It's so beautiful but it can't be eaten!"
Chu Yunli: "..." The Lian family is not short of food.
Except for the fact that the eldest young master is not good at what he does, everything about this marriage is good. Even though he is lame now, if he wants to get a wife, it won't be the Jiang family's turn.
The old lady waved her hand, "This time he took the initiative to help, which is already rare. Let the marriage take its course."
Two days later, the case of debt collection and coercion that almost resulted in death was heard in court. Evidence and evidence proved that Jiang Yaojun had no knowledge of the inside story from beginning to end, so he had to be acquitted. Everyone in the Zhou family and the gambling house who participated in the borrowing of interest money
They were all given harsh sentences. Except for Zhou's cousin who almost forced someone to death this time, he had also ordered people to beat someone and seriously injured him several times in the past few years, and was finally sentenced to twenty years in prison.
Both Zhou and his wife were imprisoned for three years, and the others waited from ten to one year, and all the interest lent was returned to the principal!
Jiang Yaojun spent two nights in prison. When he came back, he felt that everyone else had lost weight. But he was in good spirits. After washing, he sat at the table and saw the sumptuous food on the table. He smiled and said, "Don't bother me, you guys."
Every meal is brought in, and there are also bedding and clothes. This weather is not too cold..."
The old lady was using chopsticks to help him pick up the food, but she said suspiciously, "Except for your second brother who helped you once, we haven't found anyone to bring you food!"
Jiang Yaojun: "..." He was still very moved.
"Who sent that?"
The three of them looked at each other, and the old lady tentatively said, "It's probably Shao'an's kid."
Jiang Yaojun thought of something and his expression became even worse.
Chu Yunli helped him pick up a piece of meat and said, "Dad, let's eat."
There was a lot of fun in the room, and Jiang Yaojun didn't want to ruin the good atmosphere, so he didn't mention it.
After dinner, the family moved to the yard to watch the moon. Jiang Yaojun held the tea cup and sighed, "The Feng family's money will probably not be recovered. A lot of the interest they gave out was bad debts, and they can't afford to pay it back.
Your Excellency has said that if the Feng family defaults on their debts, the couple will be imprisoned for seven more years."
The next morning, as soon as Chu Yunli got up, she got the news: her two cousins from the Feng family took the recovered silver and ran away overnight.
Earlier, when the Zhou family loaned money for interest, although many people knew that the money belonged to the Feng family, most people did not know. After this time, everyone knew that the money belonged to the Feng family, and that the Zhou family had connections in the gambling house.
Since they are all in jail, it is natural for them to take revenge and complain.
The two brothers didn't want to run, but had to run.
In the end, the adults made the decision and gave the Feng family's restaurant to the Jiang family, which was better than nothing.
This land deed was originally purchased by Jiang Yaojun.
At this time, Jiang Tang learned about what happened at home and was very angry that the family treated him as a child. After that, he became more diligent.
Chu Yunli has been very leisurely recently, and Xiangxuefang's business is on the right track. She only needs to look at the books, so she takes the old lady to go shopping every two days.
People outside still don’t know about Lian Shaoan’s request to marry her, but they all know that Young Master Lian has suddenly become fond of Jiang’s snacks in the past two months. He doesn’t like people going out after his leg injury, and sometimes he even goes there in person.
Eat at the teahouse.
As a result, the business of Jiang's Teahouse became better and better. Most of the people were curious about Jiang's dim sum, and some of them came to meet Lian Shao'an by chance. There were two groups here.
Some of them simply came to him to discuss business, while others came to him to discuss marriage.
On this day, the grandfather and grandson came back from shopping. When they went upstairs, they met a family of three. A couple in their thirties brought a young girl with her. The clothes were exquisite and valuable. Especially the young girl, who was wearing pink clothes.
With fluttering clothes and a slender waist, she is really a beauty. As she went upstairs, the woman whispered to the girl, "When you meet Young Master Lian, you have to take the initiative to speak and come forward to pour tea. I will teach you everything."
Do you remember?"
The woman's cheeks turned red with embarrassment, and her voice sounded like a mosquito, "I remember."
Their voices were not loud, but the grandfather and grandson were really close. When they heard Young Master Lien, the old lady looked at her granddaughter teasingly.
Chu Yunli approached her and whispered, "Don't worry, he doesn't want anyone but me."
With a confident tone, the old lady reached out and poked her forehead, "Shameless."
The family of three went to the second floor, and the grandfather and grandson headed to the third floor laughing and joking. I vaguely heard the girl below asking, "Are there any rooms on the third floor?"
The grandfather and grandson returned to the room. Jiang Yaojun was already there, settling accounts. When he saw the two of them entering the door, he smiled and said, "How about it? Did you find something you like?"
"I didn't buy it!" The old lady sat down and started drinking tea slowly. "When I went upstairs just now, I saw someone wanting to propose marriage to Young Master Lien. The girl is really pretty."
Jiang Yaojun frowned, "Did Shaoan let them in?"
"Come in!" the old lady said seriously to her granddaughter, "Maybe it won't be long before the Lian family has another happy event, and we can go to the Lian family to enjoy the plum blossoms..."
Chu Yunli was making tea and hummed casually.
Jiang Yaojun made a "pop" sound and slapped the account book in his hand on the table.
