Chapter 239
Pei Songmao followed Pei Jing to the cell of the government office, and saw Pei Songzhi curled up in the stone cell.

Anyway, Pei Songzhi's yelling "I'm Pei Jing's second uncle" was quite effective, even though he was in jail, the prison boss threw him two quilts anyway.

But now it is the twelfth lunar month of winter, and Pei Jing's attitude is relatively indifferent. The cell boss can give him two quilts for the sake of the "Second Uncle", and no one will rush to cage him again. Put on a brazier, so this night, Pei Songmao was really very cold.

In the past six months, he was used to being pampered by Pei Songmao's side, and this night really tormented him a lot.

Seeing Pei Songmao and Pei Jing entering the stone prison one after the other, even if Pei Songzhi had no face to see his elder brother again, he couldn't bear the cold in the prison, so he rushed to the iron railing and said tearfully: "Brother, save me quickly! I know I was wrong."

Looking at Pei Songzhi's pitiful face, Pei Songmao couldn't help but think of the time when Pei Songzhi was always holding his hand when he was young, he sighed and said: "Songzhi, it's okay to save you, I just ask you a word, you have to be honest Confession."

Pei Songzhi shivered suddenly, but he already knew in his heart what Pei Songmao was going to ask him. He drooped his head and said in a low voice: "Brother, just ask me."

Along the way, Pei Songmao had asked Pei Jing clearly. Just looking at the chips on the gaming table yesterday, he knew that the private bet last night would never be less than 20 taels of silver.

What's more, just looking at Pei Songzhi's familiar appearance, I don't know how many times he gambled openly and secretly.

Where does his money come from?
Pei Songmao stared at Pei Songzhi for a long while, then suddenly said: "Just tell me where your gambling money comes from, and if you can tell clearly, I will spare you this time."

Pei Songzhi understands that whether he says it or not, his elder brother will find out sooner or later. If he confesses clearly, maybe his elder brother can give him a chance because of the love he had back then. At this point the relationship is broken.

He managed to live a comfortable life for a few days, but he didn't want to go back to the miserable days when he had no clothes and no food so soon.

He hastened to make good friends with his subordinates these days, and those people also hinted that some suppliers secretly offered him a lot of benefits. After half a year, he has basically saved up because of these secret filial piety. No less than 500 taels of silver.

It's just that he likes to visit flower houses, and he likes to gamble more. During the day, because Pei Songmao is watching, he can't leave because of the entertainment, and the prefect Luo has been investigating very hard recently, so he had to sneak out at night to play a few games.

I won more than 200 taels a while ago, but recently my luck has not been smooth and I have been losing, so I only have less than 300 taels of silver left.

Pei Songmao was silent after hearing what he said, Pei Songzhi was frightened by his expression, and hurriedly cried: "Brother, I know I was wrong, and I won't dare to do it again next time. When I go back, I will take those leftovers Return all the silver! Take me out of here first, I'm about to freeze to death!"

Pei Songmao sighed, and said to Pei Jing beside him: "Jinger, look at this matter"

Pei Jing smiled slightly: "Prefect Luo only did this to clear up the bad atmosphere in Yunzhou City. As long as the second uncle knows that he is wrong, the government will not forcefully hold him back."

He called the cell boss over, asked him to open the cell door, and brought Pei Songzhi out. Pei Jing said softly, "Second Uncle, this time, I only spared you for my father's sake. If you do it again next time, then Even I can't save you."

Pei Songzhi vaguely agreed casually, and scolded Pei Jing hundreds of times in his heart.

Pei Jing knew that he wouldn't listen to him, so he didn't pay any attention to it, so he asked Pei Songzhi to be sent home first.

He and Pei Songmao left the stone prison, and Pei Jingcai said: "Father, to tell you the truth, my second uncle also lived at home for a period of time two years ago. To be honest, his character is very bad. You let him stay in the store I'm really worried about doing things here. Especially when you put him in such an important place as purchasing, doesn't this clearly give him the opportunity to be greedy?"

Pei Songmao sighed: "I haven't seen him for so many years, and he has always been living in poverty. I really want to help him, but I didn't expect him to be helpless."

He turned his head and smiled wryly at Pei Jing: "I have no children, and now you have only one son. I really want you to help me, otherwise I will go to the West one day, and such a large family property and these shops will be lost." Who should I give it to?"

Pei Jing smiled and said: "My father and I have told you many times, and you also can't listen to it? You are only fifty, why don't you find a mother for me and have a few more siblings, then you are now Everything you want can come true.”

Pei Songmao shook his head helplessly, "Forget it, I won't tell you these things, you haven't slept all night, you'd better go home and rest, I have to go back to the store to deal with those who don't wink."

Pei Songmao walked away, and Pei Jing had to go home after sunbathing.

Pei Songmao has always been vigorous and resolute in his work, and when he returned to the store, he quickly changed the people who were corrupt with Pei Songzhi, from the cashier to the purchase.And sternly tell everyone that if anyone dares to commit the crime again and join forces to corrupt ink from within, then these people will be their end.

As for Pei Songzhi, Pei Songmao only asked him if he still wanted to stay in Baoruizhai. If he wanted to, he could honestly start as a store boy and get a salary of two taels of silver a month. If he didn't want to, Then I will no longer care about his food, drink, housing and transportation.

In the end, Pei Songzhi had no choice but to go to Baoruizhai and work as a small shop assistant.

This new year has arrived with everyone's nervousness and anticipation.

Last year, the people of the desert country invaded, destroyed and besieged the city. Many people are still vigilant for fear that such a thing will happen again this New Year while preparing for the New Year.

Fortunately, the tension is still there, but this New Year has ushered in calmly.

On this New Year's Eve, because of his different identities, Pei Jing didn't even bother to have the New Year's Eve dinner at home. He only came back before sunset to take a look at Chen Miao, and hurriedly led people to patrol around the city.

Fortunately, this year finally passed safely.

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, there is no curfew in the whole city. After dusk, the flower market lights up like daylight.

Pei Jing originally asked for a day off to spend time with Chen Miao, but unexpectedly Chen Miao gave birth on such a day.
