Chapter 317 Repayment of Debt

When Pei Xiangxiang took the IOU and angrily went to Mrs. Lin to ask for an explanation, Pei Zhenglian and Mrs. Zhu were coming out of the house. After seeing Pei Xiangxiang, Mrs. Zhu snorted coldly and didn't stop. His expression was wrong, he stopped in place, and said, "Xiang girl, what's wrong?"

Pei Xiangxiang didn't know that Pei Zhenglian was still there, so when he asked, he said, "Grandpa, you are here, so I want to ask my aunt what this IOU means. Grandpa was there when my aunt wrote the IOU, please. Grandpa help me to be a witness."

As soon as the IOU was mentioned, Pei Zhenglian just thought it was the IOU written by Pei Xing's family today, and without hesitation, he turned around and followed Pei Xiangxiang to the back room. After Zhu's pause, he followed Pei Zhenglian into the house after all.

Mrs. Lin was packing up the boxes and cages in the house, taking out all the things she needed to use, but when she looked up, she saw Pei Xiangxiang asking the teacher for a crime, but she didn't think about herself at all, instead she said in a sour tone, "Oh , what is the fourth miss of the Pei family doing?"

Pei Xiangxiang didn't say anything immediately, and directly handed the IOU to Mrs. Lin. Lin was stunned for a moment before reaching out to take the IOU from Pei Xiangxiang's hand. But when she saw the content on it, her expression changed suddenly, and a flash of light flashed in her eyes. panic.

When Pei Xiangxiang saw her reaction, she became more and more sure that the IOU was done by Mrs. Lin, but she didn't pay attention at first, and after Pei Zhenglian got the IOU, he put it away without looking at it carefully. Don't wait until today to find out.

But after a moment of panic, Mrs. Lin quickly recovered her usual expression, and said with an expression that she didn't notice anything unusual, "What's the matter? Is Xiangxiang here to collect debts? It's true that the money has been borrowed for a long time. I wanted to pay it back to you, but then your family all went to the capital, it was inconvenient, now we are all together, and when I have money in the future, I will definitely have to pay you back."

After Mrs. Lin finished speaking, she immediately went to Mrs. Zhu's side, and then said to Mrs. Zhu with a pleading tone, "Mother, please help me say something nice to Xiangxiang. Xiangxiang respects you the most. What you said She must listen, and when Brother Hua and his father come down on errands in the future, our family will still be short of money."

Obviously knowing that Pei Xiangxiang discovered the problem on the IOU, but Lin didn't mention it, and instead believed that Pei Xiangxiang was here to collect the debt. Zhu was very happy to be coaxed by Lin recently.

Although Zhu had several children, only Pei Xing was the most filial in the past, but she is gone, and her most beloved daughter married someone who was not a human being, so naturally she can't be counted on. She made a big fuss, and now seeing Pei Xing's family become rich as an official, Lin's coaxing her in a low-key manner, it is inevitable that Zhu's will be biased towards Pei Xing's family, and her expectation of enjoying old age will be placed on Pei Xing's family, so it is also considered to Lin's Respond to every request.

As soon as Mrs. Lin opened her mouth, Mrs. Zhu immediately reprimanded Pei Xiangxiangdao, relying on herself as an elder, "You are so young, why did you get into the eyes of money? Your uncle and aunt are not outsiders, and they are still your elders. You earned money." So much money, don’t talk about borrowing it, so what if you just send some money to your uncle to spend, in the future your uncle and brother will become high-ranking officials, and you will enjoy the blessings.”

Seeing Mrs. Zhu hug Pei Xing's family's thighs like this, Pei Xiangxiang was really happy from the bottom of her heart. It would be better to stick closer to them, but she really disdains Pei Xing's family. Now she lives in a big house and spends a lot of money, and As long as she wants, she can go to Ross Country to enjoy the honor of the princess. More importantly, her younger brother Pei Zhishun is the emperor's nephew. If she wants to enjoy the blessings, she is enjoying the blessings now, and she doesn't need to rely on others at all.

However, the Zhu family didn't know about these situations. In their view, Pei Xiangxiang's greatest luck was getting engaged to Lin Xu and finding a promising fiancé, but even so, they didn't think highly of both Lin Xu and Pei Xiangxiang. In a nutshell, how much money can a worker in a poor place like the Imperial Academy earn? Doesn't Pei Xiangxiang's family still depend on food, clothing, housing and transportation now?

Pei Xiangxiang didn't care what Zhu's idea was, but the borrowed money should be repaid, not a penny less, she sneered and said, "Auntie has a good plan, back then my father clearly borrowed 80 taels of silver to give Auntie and Grandpa were also watching, but when I got to Auntie’s place, the 80 taels became eight taels, what does the aunt mean, and think we are fools?”

As soon as these words came out, Pei Zhenglian's expression changed, he glared at Mrs. Lin, and asked, "What's the matter? Show me the IOU."

Pei Zhenglian doesn't pay much attention to money. He pays more attention to the reputation of the Pei family and the future of the Pei family's children. He has always turned a blind eye to other things, but Pei Xiangxiang said that the Lin family wrote less. After paying the amount of the IOU, and seeing that Pei Xiangxiang was furious before entering the house, he naturally knew that this matter could not be left alone, otherwise Pei Xiangxiang would definitely not die well, not to mention that they still have to ask Pei Xiangxiang for food and accommodation in the future. It is necessary to let them help.

When Pei Zhenglian interrupted, Lin did not dare to defend himself, so he timidly handed the IOU to Pei Zhenglian, and then said in a low voice, "I don't know what happened, maybe I made a mistake, but I really didn't write less on purpose. .”

At first, Mrs. Zhu thought she could take the opportunity to teach Pei Xiangxiang a lesson, but after listening to it, she found that things were not what Lin said, and Pei Xiangxiang didn't ask for debts. After knowing the whole story, she was not only angry with Lin, but also didn't blame her. Thinking of himself as a gunman, he said in Lin's words, "It is possible to make a mistake, eight taels and eighty taels, isn't it just missing a word, just fill it up, is it worth it to mobilize the crowd like this?"

However, as soon as Mrs. Zhu said this, before Pei Xiangxiang could refute, Pei Zhenglian who was on the side said first, "You crazy woman, what do you know, boss, daughter-in-law, go and tell the boss, if this is the case, first put this 80 taels to return to Xiang girl, as the saying goes, it is not difficult to borrow and pay back, so I paid back this first."

As soon as Lin Shi heard what Pei Zhenglian said, she immediately became anxious, and said, "Father..."

But before she had time to explain, Pei Zhenglian waved his hand directly and interrupted her, "Needless to say, before we left, the land at home was sold for hundreds of taels of silver, and we didn't spend much on the way. Pay it back."

Although Pei Zhenglian helped Pei Xiangxiang this time, although it was not in Pei Xiangxiang's expectation, it was not unexpected. With Pei Zhenglian in charge, Pei Xiangxiang stopped talking and followed Pei Zhenglian's arrangement. However, Lin's heart was not reconciled When reluctantly handing over the silver to Pei Xiangxiang, Pei Xiangxiang handed it to Pei Zhenglian and said, "Prices in the capital are not cheap. Grandpa took these silver coins to buy some daily necessities. I know when I'm free to visit you."

At first, when Lin saw Pei Xiangxiang handing the money to Pei Zhenglian, she was overjoyed in her heart, thinking that if she gave it to Pei Zhenglian, the money would fall into her pocket again sooner or later, but after hearing what Pei Xiangxiang said later, Lin felt a little unhappy Well, what Pei Xiangxiang said obviously means that the silver is considered as living expenses for them. As for when the money will be paid next time, it depends on when they are free. It is obvious that the 80 taels of silver is used to send their family.
