Reborn I want to be a giant

Chapter 130 He is not simple

What will happen to the Zong family who lost their money?
It was said that Wu Lingzuo had found a place for Wu Ziqi to be a shady student, and he would go to Beijing after the Chinese New Year, and formally enter the Guozijian to study.Although Wu Zhenzhen's marriage was not publicized, Guo's activity has proved that they are preparing a dowry.

The future of a pair of sons and daughters depends on real gold and silver. Wu Lingzuo and Guo have always been able to settle accounts. It is difficult to sleep and eat every day, as if I have died, and the only people who can think of being squeezed are the members of the Wu family.

The family members don't know how rich the clan is, but Wu Ying, who grew up in the clan, knows very well that losing 40 taels is far from hurting one's muscles and bones, but if you squeeze the clan members, you can save yourself less loss. The group of people will not have the slightest uneasiness of conscience.

At the same time, Wu Lingzuo agreed to Wu Lingxiu's decision to separate the family, because Wu Lingxiu didn't divide the money in the public account except for Liufang's property.This is the biggest concession, and the clan elders also expressed their support.

Although Mrs. Guo was extremely displeased and wished that both the fourth room and the sixth room would leave the house without leaving the house, several things that happened this year made her have a very low reputation in front of the clansmen. Several clansmen will stand by her side.So she could only stand beside Wu Lingzuo unwillingly, pretending to be a sister-in-law who was like a mother.

In this way, Wu Lingxiu was successfully separated out and took away the property belonging to Liufang. Even if he did nothing for the rest of his life, he would not lower his living standard.

But the troubles of the Zong family didn't stop there. Wen Fang and Guo Qin returned to Jinling, and went to the door of Wu's house with a thick account book to count with Wu Lingzuo.These two families don't want much, each family is 6 taels, and they plan to pay enough compensation to finish the job.

Although Wu Lingzuo is dissatisfied, but now is not the time to quarrel with these two families. On the one hand, he refuses to admit the activities he did during the long-distance race. them.

Both Wen Fang and Guo Qin were a little dumbfounded, but it would be good if the other party agreed to give the money. The right and wrong words are nothing compared to the immediate crisis.

The two families got the promise, and as soon as they stepped out of the gate of the Wu family, the Guo family sent someone to send invitations to everyone in the family who could be named, saying that there was a big deal to discuss, and each family sent a person who could make a decision to discuss with the clan. .

The clansmen put down their work and rushed to the clan's family from all over Jinling. Wu Lingzuo set up a banquet for the guests. After they were full of wine and food, he told everyone that the Wen and Guo families were blackmailed by the government for hosting a long-distance race. To tell these two families, as in-laws, the Wu family is bound to lend a helping hand, because the Jiangnan family is in the same boat, one prospers and the other loses, and only when they complement each other can they complement each other.

After a good meal, the Wu family members were quite relaxed, but when Wu Lingzuo suddenly talked about money, the atmosphere suddenly became awkward.There were those pretending to be drunk, those with black faces, those who dozed off, and those who borrowed it to make it easier for them to sneak away. Everyone fell silent.

In the end, a clansman who was close to the Zong family asked the specific amount, and Wu Lingzuo bluntly said that there was a shortfall of 40 taels.

As soon as he finished speaking, there were uncontrollable breathing sounds from all around him, followed by a noise like a vegetable market.Wu Lingzuo expected that everyone would not be able to accept it, so he prepared persuasive words.

The Wen and Guo families are not just in-laws of the chief family. There are also people in the family who are married to these two families. Wu Lingzuo said that when the Wu family had an accident, the two families never stood by. Now that others are in trouble, the Wu family will naturally We should also reciprocate.

Still the same sentence, the Jiangnan family is on the same boat, and the loss of one family's interests is equivalent to the loss of the interests of the entire Jiangnan family. He hoped that the clansmen would not only think about their own small family, only when everyone is good, the small family can be harmonious.

I have to say that he is very eloquent, and most of the clansmen think it makes sense, and really think that helping those two families is equivalent to helping themselves.However, 40 taels is not a small amount, and it is enough to share it among each family.

Although the clan elders headed by Wu Tianyi and the outstanding children headed by Wu Yongling have a good family background, if the amount to be shared exceeds 5000 taels, they will hesitate and feel pained.And they are all like this, those poor clansmen, even if they sell their iron, it is difficult to help them.

Just when a small number of people felt lucky because they couldn't afford the money, Mrs. Guo stepped forward.She provided everyone with a quick way to get money, that is, unmarried daughters in the family can get married earlier, "Speaking of which, this is what I, the clan wife, should take care of. Don't worry, everyone, I will definitely find a good one for the children." Future." It means that he wants to arrange all the girls' marriages.

And she, who already had a poor reputation, triggered a strong backlash from her clan as soon as her shameless remarks fell.Although she wasn't happy to be accused, she was looking for those who were soft-eared and a little shaken among the dense crowd of people.

……

The people Wu Ying placed in the Zong family regularly reported the Zong family's affairs to Cheng Fu after he left Jinling.After hearing a lot, it took only a few days for Cheng Fu to go from being unbelievable at the beginning to being unsurprising now.

She understood more and more why Wu Ying finally chose to abandon the Wu family.To put it bluntly, with Wu Ying's character, it would be a waste of time for him to bother to change a clansman who has been educated so thoroughly.But if the Wu family continues to be in such a mess, it will be of no benefit to anyone, and in the end, he will probably be implicated.

So by coincidence, spying on Wu Lingxiu's ambition is like being offered a pillow when you are sleepy, and fine wine when you are thirsty.

"Wu Lingxiu wants to be that king." Xu Ye stroked the seal that the little girl Guo gave him.

Cheng Fu turned the charcoal pencil, "Tell me...does he know that Wu Zhenrou stole 40 taels?"

Xu Ye rested his cheeks, feeling bored, "I don't think there is anything about the Wu family that he doesn't know about."

The little girl suddenly lost her hand and the charcoal pencil fell off. Xu Ye wanted to pick it up for her, but she grabbed her wrist, "Wu Lingxiu is not an easy person."

"He is not simple." Xu Ye picked up the pen and returned it to her.

The little girl narrowed her eyes and pursed her lips, "Could he be sure that Wu Ying is no longer interested in the Wu family?" If it wasn't so, why would he not make a move for a long time, as if he was waiting and watching.

Xu Ye squeezed her soft little hand, "It may not be that godly, just good at observing." Wu Lingxiu has been paying attention to Wu Ying.

The worse the Wu family's situation got, the longer Wu Ying hesitated.Right now, the clan has to make offerings to the clan one after another, and people's hearts are unstable. If Wu Ying has plans for the Wu family, then now is the best time.As long as you secretly lend money to those clansmen who can't afford the money, whether you are a creditor or a benefactor in the future, you can get favoritism from the clansmen to a certain extent.

But Wu Ying did not act according to his guess, and went to the capital as a refuge, but the return date was unknown.This move is meaningless to others, but in Wu Lingxiu's eyes, it is equivalent to Wu Ying's direct expression of abandoning the Wu family.

All of a sudden, a powerful enemy was lost, and the anger that was stuffy in his heart dissipated in an instant.The original plan will naturally need to be readjusted.

"He doesn't know Wu Ying well enough." Cheng Fu shook his head.

Wu Ying seemed very generous when he was generous, but he had to think about two pennies when he was stingy.It is because I feel that it is not worthwhile to spend my own money to buy people's hearts, so I choose to give up.However, his temporary departure from Jinling can be regarded as fulfilling Wu Lingxiu.I hope that the other party will not be an idiot after he gets what he wants, and repeat the mistakes of Wu Lingzuo.

"Wu Ying will return to Jinling at the earliest in the twelfth lunar month. By then, the Wu family's pot of soup will be ready." Tsk tsk, the Wu clan must be very lively this year.

Xu Ye helped her sharpen the ink, and said: "Wu Ying abandoned the Wu family, Wu Lingxiu will definitely find ways to turn him into an ally, because the family's in-laws are powerful, and the world admires power, Wu Lingxiu does not have the support of forces comparable to the Zong family, those who are afraid of turmoil The tribe will not favor him."

"Have you ever thought that he may not allow Wu Zhenzhen to marry off smoothly?" Cheng Fu blinked.

"This is not enough." Xu Ye vaguely had a guess in his heart.

A smirk curled up on the corner of the little girl's mouth, "Have we thought about getting together?"

"So who is it?"

If you want to be the patriarch of the Wu family, you can sit there for a long time with only money and integrity.The people of the big family need to be cohesive at all times, and wealth, power, reputation, and the sense of crisis that if you do not advance, you will retreat are all indispensable.The Wu family already had wealth and fame, but Wu Lingxiu did not have in-laws who could compete with Wu Lingzuo's family.Obviously he was going to sacrifice his marriage.

There are only a few big families in the south of the Yangtze River that can be named. Wu Lingxiu is at this age, and there are concubine sons and daughters under him. Which family has carefully cultivated a daughter who is willing to marry him.

This is also what Cheng Fu was curious about, "Has Zaoxin belonged to you? Honorable family members?"

"No matter who it is, he won't be able to hold it for long." Xu Ye thought through the nobles and clans who settled in Jiangnan, not to mention, there are really suitable people.I just don't know if Wu Lingxiu's girlfriend is the one that just popped up in his mind.

"You and Wu Ying have common interests, Wu Lingxiu may think you are easy to fool."

Cheng Fu lifted his proud chin and said, "I'm not what I was before ten years old."

Xu Ye smiled and looked at her like a fool, "You will always be the one in my heart."

Being teased suddenly, the little girl blushed, "Do...why do you say such things suddenly..."

"What kind of words?"

"Don't be ashamed." The little girl covered her hot face with a fan.

Xu Ye reached out to take down her fan, and had a good chat between men and women for a while, but the uninvited guest disturbed her.Today is Xiu Mu, can you let him have a good relationship with the child's mother?
"Master Xu, the people in Dongqiao County are in chaos. Master Luo tells you to leave immediately. You must suppress the matter as soon as possible." An official who reported the letter stood outside the study panting and said to the people in the room.

"Civil unrest is not a trivial matter, did you rush to report it in six hundred miles?" Xu Ye remained calm.

"This, my subordinates don't know, Master Luo only ordered my subordinates to find you."

Xu Ye nodded, "Understood."

Luo Xing looked at the back of the official who was in a hurry, and wondered, "Isn't the civil disturbance going to move Jinling Guard?" It would be too childish to let a civil servant go down.I always feel that there is something wrong with Luo Shen.

"It's just an exaggeration." Xu Ye said indifferently.

"You come with me." He suddenly acted like a baby to the little girl.

This set was tested repeatedly in front of Cheng Fu, and Cheng Fu was about to accept it with a smile, "Okay..."

Luo Xing interrupted, "The tea merchants are about to enter the city." Didn't you and Wu Ying make an appointment to come here?

Hearing this, Cheng Fu's mind immediately woke up from the chaos, thinking: "You start first, I will chase you when I see the tea merchant." There is no way, you can't break your promise.

Xu Ye pinched her pink face, "I'm just talking." Since there is civil unrest, it's not peaceful, he doesn't want the little girl to make any mistakes, even if she is stepped on.

Luo Shen only sent two officials to accompany him, and they were in a hurry. Xu Ye was not in the mood to argue with the other party, so he carried the leather backpack made for him by the little girl and went out of the city in the late autumn cold.

Also today, the person Wu Ying placed in Hangzhou sent back news about Wu Zhenrou.

Because of the long-distance race lawsuits, Wu Zhenrou was scolded by her parents-in-law, saying that her father was a hypocrite who was more greedy and shameless than anyone else.The Wen family had kindly asked him to co-organize the long-distance running race, but he was lucky enough to make a lot of black-hearted money behind the Wen family's back in the name of the Wen family.

The meaning of the Wen family is very clear. Now that others want compensation from the Wen family, Wu Zhenrou, as the daughter-in-law of the Wen family, will naturally have to bear these debts.So Wu Zhenrou was forced to go back to Jinling's natal family to ask for money. If she couldn't get it, she would never have to go back to Hangzhou. The Wen family would send someone to send a letter of divorce to Jinling.

Wu Zhenrou cried all the way back to Jinling, told Guo about her situation, and asked the other party to help her tide over the difficulties no matter what, otherwise, if the Wen family divorced her, she would only die.

It's not that the Guo family doesn't love their eldest daughter, but they always feel that the Wu family is not wrong. The Wen family screwed up the long-distance race and was sued, and now they want to find someone to help fill the hole.So I didn't plan to take the money to the eldest daughter to go back to work. I just let her rest at her mother's house for a few days, and then I personally accompanied her to Hangzhou to talk to the Wen family.

Wu Zhenrou really couldn't stay for a moment, because her mother-in-law got angry, in addition to threatening her to give her son a second wife, she also hoped that she would be taken away by a mountain tiger halfway and never return to Wen's house.

Not to mention the deep affection for her husband, even her in-laws treated her well in the past. She was more respectable than most of the daughter-in-laws in the Wen family.So in this matter, she thought that she was dragged down by her mother's family. If her father hadn't done such a thing, she would not be here.

In order to return to Hangzhou as soon as possible, she found her younger sister Wu Zhenzhen who had saved a lot of dowry when she left Guo's yard.
