Chapter 449
Jiangheting fell into silence.
The next moment, Duke Lu suddenly jumped up and shouted:
"Day, he's a goddamn stern Tanhualang! I didn't even agree, what the hell did you agree to?! How old is your old woman in the house?!"
Su Jiu was shocked.
Her own father, I heard that she grew up in a military camp, with a manic and irritable personality, and once beat civil servants violently in front of the emperor, but she did not expect to be so arrogant in the mansion!
But why did she want to applaud him so much?
The old lady was sprayed with saliva all over her face, and immediately fell to the ground crying, "Oh, I'm not going to kill me! Everyone come and comment, the dignified father-in-law insulted the old lady! The main room is also considered the auntie! Old Master, why did you leave so early! Pity our mother and son being bullied by your son, we can’t survive this day!"
Su Jiu looked at her quietly.
Although the old lady is over sixty years old, she has a strong body, and when she howls at the top of her throat, she is full of energy, and the voice is so loud that people next door can hear it.
Although the Holy One governs the country with martial arts, he also attaches great importance to filial piety.
Tell her to howl again, and the admonisher must participate in the father's unfilial piety.
A cold light flashed across the girl's eyes, she suddenly held the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, and said in a crying voice:
"When I was parading the imperial examinations today, I saw the Tanhua Lang that my grandmother said. He was over half a hundred and his temples were gray. My grandmother accepted the dowry and asked me to marry a man older than my father... I should cry... ..."
"What?!" Lu Guogong was shocked, "Then Tanhualang is an old man?!"
Su Jiu nodded aggrievedly, "I expected that the family was rich and the dowry was very rich, so my grandmother nodded and agreed. Dad, is our family very poor, otherwise why would my grandmother do the business of selling out her granddaughter? When I was in Xiao's house in the past , Grandmother would never exchange her granddaughter's marriage for money."
Lu Guogong's face darkened.
He spent a lot of time in the barracks, and all the power of housekeeping was given to this stepmother, and he never asked about it.
But now it seems that this family has been run into a mess, and the jewel in the palm of the dignified prince has to worry about whether the money in the family is enough...
The man raised his beard and his voice was like a bell: "Xiaojiu has grown up. I heard that he went to the academy to study. It can be seen that there is ink in his stomach. From now on, mother no longer needs to care about the middle school. The expenses will be decided by my heart and soul, Xiaojiu!"
The old lady who was howling at the top of her throat suddenly couldn't howl.
She stood up scrambling, "What are you talking about?!"
Lu Guogong stared at her coldly, "Come here, go and move all the ledgers and keys from the warehouse to Jiangheting!"
He killed decisively and acted swiftly and resolutely.
Dozens of soldiers serving him acted immediately, pushing all the Jiaojiao servants who tried to stop them to the ground.
The old lady was dumbfounded.
When she saw that the group of soldiers really brought all the books to Jiangheting, she panicked, and hurriedly said: "Boss, I was just joking, Tanhualang is so old, how could I marry my good granddaughter to him? "
Lu Guogong really didn't want to talk to her.
Seeing that he was impatient, the old lady quickly turned to Su Jiu again, her old face turned into a smile, "Xiao Jiu, grandma, I was really just joking! You girl is too small, can't you even take a joke?"
Su Jiu said indifferently, "It's not that you can't take jokes, it's just that there are some jokes that you can't take. Grandma, as the wife of an old country, should be dignified and dignified. If outsiders see you just now, they will laugh at you."
The old lady gritted her teeth in hatred.
After all this trouble today, not only did Su Jiu not be married off, but even the power of housekeeper was lost...
She took the second and third family members with her, and left with a black face and flicked her sleeves.
The night is getting darker.
Su Jiu and Lu Guogong sat under the eaves, and the man sighed, "I thought it would be a good thing for Xiao Jiu to go home, but I didn't expect you to suffer such a big grievance."
Su Jiu rolled up his sleeves and poured him a glass of wine, "Grandmother's words and deeds are inappropriate, and I don't know what earth-shattering things I will do in the future. I have a word, and I don't know if I should say it or not."
"Small wine but it's okay to talk."
"My daughter thinks it's better to separate the family. If grandma wants to continue to follow her father, let her follow. If she doesn't want to, let her live with the two uncles. In this way, I guess she can't make any trouble."
Lu Guogong hesitated.
After a long time, he said softly: "I always think that the most important thing is to have a family reunion. Although your two uncles are mediocre, they are also well-behaved and have never done anything to betray the Lu family. Separate the family, Or wait a little longer."
He touched Su Jiu's little head, "As for Jiaojiao, she has been raised by her father for so many years, and she has indeed developed feelings. In addition, she is now the imperial concubine of the crown prince and will marry into the Eastern Palace in the future." You and her should get along friendly, do you understand?"
Su Jiu looked at his biological father with expectant eyes.
She said lightly, "What if she doesn't want to be friendly with me?"
Lu Guogong's eyes sank, "If my father can lift her up to the clouds, he can also make her fall into the mud. There is only one real daughter in the Duke's Mansion."
Su Jiu smiled, "Thank you father."
After sending Duke Lu back to the front yard, Su Jiu sat alone in the embroidered building and ordered Bai Lu to light more candles.
She flipped through the ledger in the mansion, and the more she looked at it, the more frightened she became.
The dignified Duke's Mansion, the home of the rich and powerful for hundreds of years, has no savings in the mansion!
My father's annual rewards and monthly salary are completely spent!
The women's clothes and jewelry, the monthly money of the maids and servants, the money used by the second and third housekeepers to manage in the officialdom, the money used by the women in the mansion to subsidize their natal families, and the money spent by the elder brother in the casino and brothel, everything is huge!
She closed the ledger, Bai Nen's fingertips couldn't help trembling.
Bai Lu added a few lamps, "Miss?"
Su Jiu gritted his teeth silently, and opened the wooden box containing the title deed of the shop.
There was a thick stack of contracts in the box, she roughly rummaged through it, and found none of them were commercial land deeds, but all of them were owed by Lufeng Bank!
She calculated in her mind that these IOUs add up to 40 taels of silver, and what is even more frightening is that the rolling interest is as high as 10 taels!
The dignified Duke Lu's mansion, the most famous house of Zhongming Dingshi in Chang'an City, owes the bank 50 taels of snow-patterned silver!
All owed in recent years!
As for the debtor, it was written in her father's name!
But she didn't believe that it was her father who borrowed the money, it must be that old lady acting as a demon, taking advantage of her father's carelessness to trick her father into signing and imprinting his handprints!
Lufeng Bank is a big bank, and its business is very disciplined. It is definitely impossible to repay the debt, and there is no such thing as defrauding the borrower.
Lu Guogong's mansion really owes the bank 50 taels of snow-patterned silver!
"boom!"
Su Jiu swept down the wooden box suddenly!
She was supporting the desk with both hands, and the veins on the back of her white hands were protruding from fright and anger!
