"Houselady, why don't I know that I'm wrong? I apologize to you. It was my fault and I shouldn't have stolen your things! Please, I can't report it to the official, I can't report it to the official!"
The sentence "report to the official to arrest someone" shocked Wang Cuier into a cold sweat. She never dreamed that things would eventually turn out this way.
"If you don't report it to the official, we can't really do anything to you. Could it be that we just let it go? We discovered this matter today, what if we hadn't? If I didn't report it to the official, you would be like this Afraid of regret? You don’t, you will only happily count the dirty money that we have exchanged with our blood and sweat! I, Shen Luzhu, am not a holy mother, and I have always repaid every penny spent!"
Shen Luzhu looked at the remorseful Wang Cuier in front of him, and although he said this deliberately to scare her, he was telling the truth.
Regarding Wang Cuier, Shen Luzhu not only resented her behavior at first, but also felt sorry for her being taken advantage of, but all of these disappeared with Wang Cuier's various defenses and sophistry towards the Hu family!
Kindness to the enemy is cruelty to oneself!
If they hadn't discovered it early and made plans and arrangements, she would be the one crying and regretting it now!
"You can't report it to the police! Cui'er, you can't let them report your father and brother to the police! If they arrest you, what will I do to your mother in the future? You need to think of a way!"
Seeing that Wang Cuier had no response, the Queen Mother shook her arm desperately!
Shen Songjie felt that the Queen Mother was really ridiculous. At this time, she was still thinking about what she would do in the future. She snorted mockingly: "Ha! You don't have to worry about this. Neither you nor your daughter can run away. When the time comes, Let’s all reunite as a family in prison!”
When the Queen Mother heard this, her face turned pale with fright, and she slapped Wang Cuier on the shoulder: "What can I do, what can I do! I can't go to jail, it's all you, please think of a way!" "
Shen Luzhu's pressing questions and the Queen Mother's cries stunned Wang Cuier. If she hadn't been discovered...of course she would have exchanged it for silver!
Who doesn't want to live a life of wealth? She is not as lucky as the landlady, and her husband's family has a better life, but her family is not doing well, and her husband's family has nothing to do with it! If she doesn't think of a solution on her own, she will have to work for others all her life. She just wants to live a good life if she doesn't want to live a good life. Why do you have to go against her!
The more Wang Cui'er thought about it, the angrier she became: "I'll just take it back! Everything is still here. If the landlady takes it back, it will still be used the same way. Why do we have to force people to a dead end!"
"Return it back? What you said is so easy. Today's things are returned, but what about yesterday's? What about the day before yesterday? You have stolen from me so many times, and you must have sold them long ago. What do you want to pay back? And, The person who forces you to a dead end is yourself!"
Shen Luzhu stared at Wang Cuier's unconscious face and spoke word by word.
Chu Yi was afraid of his wife's back and helped her calm down: "No need to talk nonsense to her anymore."
Then he turned to Chu Ping and said, "It's almost dawn. Let's tie up everyone and send them to the county government together."
Zhao Chengyi was happy to hear this: "That's good. It saves us from having to arrest the person again after we go to report to the official. We can just send him over. It saves everyone trouble!"
Chu Ping was also happy and rolled up his sleeves and stepped forward: "Then what are you waiting for? Let's do it. Go back to bed early, brothers!"
As they said this, they were about to step forward to get someone, but they were so frightened that the Wang family members even collapsed on the ground. Wang Cuier and her second brother struggled and spat out the rags in their mouths, shouting loudly. Shouting: "Repay! Repay! You can pay it back! Don't be impulsive, everything is easy to discuss! We will pay back everything! Wang Cuier, please take out the money quickly!"
Following the words of the second brother of the Wang family, the rest of the Wang family nodded desperately, fearing that if they were too late, all of them would be in jail!
At this time, Wang Cuier was very scared when she saw that the other party was going to use the real thing. She didn't have anything to be angry about, so she nodded hurriedly: "Yes, I can pay it back, I can pay it back! We must all pay it back. The boss and the boss's wife will go around our family." !」
"Sure, tell me how many times you stole and how much you stole. Don't try to lie to others. We all made the gold and silver paper ourselves. No one will know better than me how much we have done. All we need to do when we go back is talk to everyone.
There is a pair of paper ingots, and it is naturally clear how much the difference is. This matter just takes some time, but it is not an impossible task! "
Wang Cui'er knew that what Shen Luzhu said was not a lie. How could she dare to deceive everyone in the Chu family at this time? She hurriedly explained everything.
Not counting today's events, Wang Cuier stole more than sixteen dozen items one after another during this period!
"Wang Cuier, I don't want more from you. These sixteen dozen pieces of paper total nineteen taels and two hundred cents. If you make up for the loss today, I won't have to report it to the official."
Wang Cui's eyes widened. During this period, she sold paper to the Hu family, and she only earned more than five taels in total. Then she gave it to her mother-in-law and spent it. She could only get three taels in her hand now. The Chu family asked for nineteen taels of silver at once. This was simply killing her!
"Nineteen taels? How can it be that many! You are simply extorting money!"
"Extorting money?" Shen Luzhu smiled, it was really a thief shouting to catch a thief!
"Sixteen dozens of paper, each dozen large sheets, is one hundred and ninety-two. Each sheet can make twenty paper ingots, which is 3840. Each paper ingot sells for five cents, a total of ten Nine taels and two hundred cents, not a penny is missing. If you don’t understand the calculation, you can ask someone to do it. If I miscalculated you by one cent, I will give you all these gold and silver papers today!"
"What I took out was all paper, not paper ingots! Why should I settle the account at the price of paper ingots?"
"Just because you stole it! If you hadn't stolen it, those papers would have been made into paper ingots and put in my shop to be bought. What's wrong with me calculating the price of paper ingots? You sell these papers I gave it to our opponent, probably along with the origami method. Do you want me to calculate for you how much you have to pay me if I give you this recipe?"
"But, then...I really can't afford nineteen taels!"
The Queen Mother also cried and howled: "Even if we are all killed and even the bones and dregs are sold, we can't afford it!"
"Then there's nothing more to say."
As soon as Shen Luzhu finished speaking, Chu Yi and the others were about to take action. Wang Cuier was so frightened that she quickly shouted: "Let me think of a way, give me some time, I will think of a way and I will definitely pay back the money. Please, boss lady!" "
Shen Luzhu looked at her and said calmly: "Wang Cuier, I can give you an idea."
Seeing that things were turning around, Wang Cuier nodded hurriedly: "What do you say, boss lady!"
Shen Luzhu gently raised his chin and motioned her to look at the gold and silver paper on the bullock cart behind him: "How did you sell the paper you sold to the Hu family before?"
"Three, a piece of paper for thirty."
Thirty cents? Shen Luzhu just wanted to roll his eyes when he heard this. She really had no capital, so she sold it for money. The cost of one piece of her gold and silver paper was as high as fifty yuan!
Shen Luzhu calculated in his mind, and then said to Wang Cuier: "Here are forty dozen gold and silver papers. I will give them to you according to the cost. Each piece is fifty cents. These are twenty-four taels, plus the previous ones. Nineteen taels and two hundred cents, a total of forty-three taels and two hundred cents. If you sell these to the Hu family, each piece will cost ninety cents, which is exactly forty-three taels and two hundred cents."
Wang Cuier was a little confused: "What you mean is that you want me to sell these to the Hu family at a higher price. The money sold is just enough to compensate you, right?"
"That's right."
"Why help me?"
"I'll send you to jail, and I won't be able to recover my losses. It's better than this. You reimburse me for my losses, and you're not allowed to come to my workshop again in the future. I'll let you go this time, how about that?"
Shen Luzhu looked at Wang Cuier, slightly nervously waiting for her to nod in agreement.
"good!"
After a moment, seeing Wang Cuier finally nodding, Shen Luzhu also breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, finally letting go of the yaw plan, otherwise she would have to report to the official. Even if the official captured the Wang family, they would be afraid of losses. Not to mention the fact that they are not coming back, the most important thing is the Hu family, who are the culprits. How can we let them escape unscathed!
It was already daybreak, and the neighbors who had been watching the excitement outside the wall of Wang's house at first could not bear to go back to catch up on their sleep after seeing that there was nothing going on in the yard.
Shen Luzhu and his party untied the Wang family, entered the Wang family's house together, and waited to go to Hu
Wang Cuier from home brought people over to buy paper.
As soon as Huang Liang got up in the morning, he was informed by Hu Shun that Wang Cuier was here and said that he had something important to discuss with them!
Huang Liang hurried out of the house and saw Wang Cuier standing in Hu's courtyard. He stepped forward and asked, "It's so early in the morning. You'd better be really worried about something big!"
"Of course it's a big deal. I stole a large amount of gold and silver paper from Chu's shop last night, a total of forty dozen!".c
"Forty dozen, are you sure? Where's the paper?" Huang Liang immediately became energetic after hearing this!
"I hid it. I stole so much this time. The Chu family will definitely find out. Even if they don't know it's me, I will never be able to work in the Chu family's workshop again. So this is the last time. From now on, let’s stop contacting each other!”
Huang Liang rolled his eyes and thought to himself, since you can't steal the paper and it has no use value, it's a waste for me to contact you: "Stop talking nonsense, hurry up and get the paper for me. If the Chu family finds it, I'll look for it." If you pass, it will be too late!"
Wang Cuier thought about her family members and the possibility that she would be imprisoned if she didn't succeed. She took a deep breath and encouraged herself: "Since this is the last time, I want to earn more. What you gave me before was too much." Less, I took such a big risk this time and stole so much, thirty cents a piece is too little, I want ninety cents, ninety cents a piece!"
Hu Shun couldn't believe his ears: "Ninety cents a piece! Are you crazy about money? Why don't you grab it!"
Huang Liang also shouted angrily: "Wang Cui'er, don't be so fucking shameless. How much does a piece of paper ingot cost? You want ninety cents from me for a piece of paper!"
Wang Cuier remembered what Shen Luzhu told her before going out. As long as she told the Hu family that such a large number would only happen once, if she had a tougher attitude, the Hu family would definitely agree.
"I stole so much this time. The Chu family will definitely look at it in the future. It is probably impossible to take out another one. If you don't want to, I will burn them all back!"
Hu Shun didn't believe it: "Don't scare people. If you manage to steal it, it's like getting money from hundreds of flowers. Are you willing to burn it? You're a liar!"
Probably because she was forced to a certain extent, Wang Cuier knew that if she failed this time, not only herself, but also her parents' family would be destroyed. She always remembered to be tough and retorted to Hu Shun: "I won't burn it, so much gold." Silver paper, are you waiting for someone to find you, waiting for the Chu family to come to your door and arrest me! Ninety coins a piece, do you want it? Just one sentence, I don’t have time to bother you now! "
