Fair Lady

Chapter 23 Entrusting Debt Collection

Just as Zhen Dafu was about to say something, he heard a cheerful voice from the door: "Here we come, here we come, it's better to come sooner than later, Mr. Yang, don't you think so? They are preparing to go to the government here, so you just came." "

Shuyao was taken aback, isn't this the voice of that golden tongue from yesterday?Why is he here?And County Magistrate Yang is here too?

Zhen Dafu and Lin's complained secretly, not only because of the money problem, but also...their clothes are a lot wet now, it's hard to see people!

Sure enough, the next moment someone yelled: "Ah, what does it smell like? Why does it smell like urine?" It was the voice of Mrs. Jiujin. As soon as she arrived at the door, she saw the hint of Mrs. Sun's daughter-in-law, and she caught a glimpse of Mrs. Lin. Embarrassed, hurriedly publicized it very unkindly.

It was as if Lin was looking for a hole in the ground to get in, but the round tiger eyes of the little boy who was already in Shujie's arms were still staring at her, making her dare not move.

Where did this tiger come from?Some people raise cats and dogs, but I have never heard of anyone raising tigers!

The neighbors who followed County Magistrate Yang and Jin Tongue laughed when they saw Zhen Dafu and Mrs. Lin's embarrassment. They had received a report from a child saying that someone had come to trouble the Xia family again, so they hurried Come here.

But Jin Tongu was attracted by the fire on the shoulders of Xiaoguai and Shuyao, and stared at these two.

Unexpectedly, Xiaoguai quickly buried her head in Shujie's arms: If I don't show it to you, I won't show it to you.

Huo Huo turned around with an unhappily "squeak" sound, shaking his butt at the golden tongue.

Xu Nian'er, who was following Jin Tongue, smiled: "Uncle Jin, they don't even like you."

Golden Tongue touched his beard awkwardly: "I don't know them, they are afraid of strangers."

Shuyao patted Huohuo's big tail lightly: "Stinky Huohuo, don't be rude to the guests, say hello to Mr. Jin and Master Yang." Whether it was intentional or not, Golden Tongue helped them yesterday.

Huohuoxin turned around unwillingly, and gave a "squeak" to the Golden Tongues, which was regarded as a greeting, and Xiaoguai also popped out his head and shook his head.

Jin Tongue was greatly surprised: "Spirit beast, it's really a spirit beast. Xiao Yaoer, is this your pet?"

Shuyao shook her head: "They are not pets, they are friends and family members of our three brothers and sisters." This golden tongue is so strange, "Xiao Yaoer"?Are they familiar?

Shu Jie respectfully said: "Lord Yang, Mr. Jin, I don't know that you two are coming to the humble house, and I feel disappointed to welcome you."

Golden Tongue waved his hand: "There is no big deal, I am a friend of your parents in the capital, come to pay respects to them, Mr. Yang has a heart, so come with me." After speaking, he pointed to Zhen Dafu, "They Is this to collect debts, or to pay back money?"

Zhen Dafu hurriedly responded: "No, no, we are all one family, we owe everything."

Shu Yao sneered: "Uncle, that's not what you said just now, you have been talking about debts and repaying money, it's only right and proper."

Shu Jie continued: "Exactly, there are so many people here right now, so let's all take out the IOUs and ask Mr. Yang to judge! Mrs. Zhen said just now that she would not deceive our three children."

County magistrate Yang took the IOU handed over by Shuyao: "The total amount is 2000 taels. The person who established the certificate is Zhen Dafu. The borrowing time is Xiuwu (the current emperor's reign) for seven years. The guarantors Shi Jian and Li Dachun have their fingerprints on both sides. Well, there is no problem. Zhen Dafu, you have borrowed the 2000 taels for five years, and you still haven’t paid it back? Also, what about the IOU you mentioned?”

Zhen Dafu was dripping with cold sweat: "I didn't... I didn't write an IOU, they are all... all one family, right? How can I use an IOU?"

Jin Tongue smiled and said: "So, Mr. Zhen, you are really benevolent. You need to write an IOU for the money owed to the Xia family, so the Xia family doesn't need an IOU to borrow money from you? Hehe, but you are really strange, if you lend money to you The Xia family is in front, so it’s enough to deduct the 800 taels from this IOU? If it’s after that, it’s even more strange, they don’t ask you for a debt of 2000 taels, but instead borrow 800 taels from you?”

Zhen Dafu continued to sweat coldly: "This... this..." and turned into anger: "What are you that want you to take care of our family affairs?"

County Magistrate Yang said anxiously: "Shut up, how dare you be rude to Mr. Jin!"

Jin Xida smiled indifferently: "I'm really nothing. I'm just a close friend of Xia Butou and Mrs. Xia. If you bully their children, I will naturally take care of them, not only to take care of them, but also to the end. Within three days Now, if you don’t pay back the money, I will ask Zhang Zhifu, the magistrate of Daming Prefecture, to help you collect the debt.” After speaking, he “robbed” the IOU from County Magistrate Yang and stuffed it into his arms: “Brother Jie, Xiao Yaoer , put the IOU here with Uncle Jin, can you rest assured?"

Shu Yao nodded quickly: "Yao'er believes in Uncle Jin".She was sure that Jin Xida would not be interested in coveting the 2000 taels of silver, as long as he wanted it, most people would be eager to give him the silver.

Shu Jie also replied respectfully: "Uncle Jin is not only a good friend of my first parents, but also the elder of our three brothers and sisters. It is a blessing for me and my brothers and sisters to have you as the master for us."

Jin Xida smiled brightly at Zhen Dafu: "Did you hear that? I am entrusted by Brother Jie to take back the money. I will send the banknotes within three days, and you can find me at Master Xu's residence. Or Send it here, Brother Jie can ask someone to come to Xu Mansion and let me know."

Mr. Zhongshuling Xu?A guest living in Xu Mansion?Zhen Dafu really wanted to cry, he shouldn't have come, he shouldn't have come!Do you really want to lose 2000 taels of silver for nothing?

The county magistrate Yang "answered" the question in his heart: "Did you hear what Mr. Jin said clearly? When Mr. Jin really goes to find Zhang Zhifu, you will not only pay back the principal." In fact, Yang The county magistrate really reminded Zhen Dafu kindly.

Zhen Dafu and Mrs. Lin were still thinking about luck. This man surnamed Jin might just be bluffing and pretending to be a tiger. Now that he heard Yang Yishan's warning, all "good wishes" disappeared, and it seemed that the 2000 taels of silver could not be kept.

Zhen Dafu said with a sad face: "Brother Jie, sister Yao, the restaurant business is not doing well recently, and uncle's money is relatively tight, can you see if this money is okay... Anyway, you three children can't spend much, the last time I sold it Doesn’t Cuizhu still have 300 taels of silver? I heard that you still sell tofu and soy milk.”

Shuyao looked at him innocently: "Uncle, why do you want us to pay back the money even though you obviously don't have an IOU, and you still say that it's only natural to pay back the debt? We have an IOU, but you don't want to pay back the money?"

"You..." Zhen Dafu was annoyed, such a young child, how could he hold on to the topic and refuse to talk?
