"Aren't I afraid that the person in charge will take the money and run away! Of course I will be able to secure such a large amount of money when I bring it back." Liu Fugui retorted weakly.
According to the plan, the bank note was originally supposed to be brought back by the third brother's confidant, but how could he be willing? After giving so much money to the third brother, he naturally had to spend some money. Therefore, he asked the manager to take a boat to the north, and he sneaked back and hid in Yuhe's house, planning to wait a few days to deduct twenty or thirty thousand taels and then hand them over and ask his third brother to give him 30%.
A 30/70 split was already agreed upon a long time ago. Apart from the capital, he could still get a lot.
His abacus was very good, but it was a pity that the money was robbed inexplicably before it was warmed up. He was trying to draw water out of a bamboo basket, but the money came from an evil source. Now that it was robbed, he was even the official. Don't dare to be alarmed.
"You!! Idiot." Liu Fushun shook off Liu Fugui's clothes and showed his fierce look. It would be great if the person in front of him was not his brother. Why should he care about brotherhood?
He would rather trust the manager he bribed than his compatriot brother, which shows how disappointed this brother is for him.
"Have you hidden it? Let me tell you, you won't be able to hold on to this much money." Liu Fushun stared at Liu Fugui, trying to figure out the clues.
"The conscience of heaven and earth, second brother, am I that kind of person?" Liu Fugui was anxious and of course he refused to admit it. Even if he had this idea, he would not dare to admit it.
"Don't you do this kind of thing often? How much money do you take from the silk shop every month? Do you think I don't know? The reason why I tolerate you is entirely because we are brothers from the same mother. Hurry up Hand over the money, we will still be brothers, otherwise don’t blame the younger brother for disregarding brotherhood.”
Liu Fugui only felt that his hands and feet were cold. He knew that his third brother was not as simple as his appearance suggested. He had secretly seen him put food in the food of the Zhou family more than once.
What kind of good thing could be hidden away from people? Liu Fugui thought secretly. He knew that his brother had changed his appearance without knowing it. He was no longer the same brother as before.
If he put something in his food when he wasn't paying attention, then he...
The Zhou family is fine after eating for so long...
Liu Fugui felt cold in his heart and quickly wiped his tears and pretended to be pitiful, "Third brother, you have to believe in the second brother. Although the second brother likes to take advantage of small things, he will never dare to pay such a big sum of 130,000. You have to believe it." Brother, we are brothers who crawled out of the same belly, how could the second brother lie to you."
He was also severely wronged! Bai was beaten so severely that he didn't even know who the murderer was.
Liu Fushun looked coldly at his pitiful brother and snorted in his heart, believe it? What did you do to make me believe that you came back secretly and you thought I didn't know what you wanted to do?
Ah! The stupid second brother.
"It's best not to do this, otherwise even if you are my brother, I won't let you go." Liu Fushun said harsh words with a stern look on his face, which really scared Liu Fugui to the point where his calves trembled.
"Then..., what should we do now? The money is gone."
"What else can I do? Do you dare to report to the official?" Liu Fushun glanced at him, "Fortunately, I have made preparations in advance. Please be more honest these days and stop causing trouble."
"Okay! Okay." Liu Fugui nodded hastily and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. This matter was finally over. He was really afraid that his younger brother would take away the affairs of his silk and satin shop because of this incident. Now he relies on This silk village is having a good time.
This thief and robber who kills thousands of people! He earned so much money with so much hard work. Is it easy for him? It was gone when he said no. It really hurt like the flesh on his body was being ripped out.
After dismissing Liu Fugui, Liu Fushun drank a cup of tea that had already gone cold. Although the tea was cold, it felt very comfortable in his stomach. The corners of Liu Fushun's mouth turned up slightly, showing his pride.
Ah! He, the second brother, only grew a body and forgot to grow a brain.
South of Pingcheng, there is a small Guanyin Temple. The Guanyin Temple is not big, with only three or four temples on the left and right, and four or five Buddha statues, but incense was lit early.
Guanyin Temple is relatively close to Pingcheng. Early in the morning, devotees come to offer incense and pray. The temple also has several wing rooms to accommodate overnight pilgrims.
Zhou Lianrong knelt down and worshiped in the main hall, praying devoutly to a large statue of Guanyin who gave birth to her children. She had been married for more than three years, but had not yet had a son and a half. At first, she was not anxious, but under the supervision of her mother, I went to some famous doctors for treatment and drank a lot of medicine, but my stomach still felt empty.
At this time, she had to become anxious. The doctor kept watching her, and she drank the decoction every day. Even she often stepped on the threshold of the Guanyin Temple.
As proud as she is, she will eventually bow to reality and put her hope in the gods, hoping that the gods' blessings will allow her to get what she wants.
After a while, Zhou Lianrong was helped out of the main hall by the girl. Seeing the people coming and going in the temple, including men and women, some dressed plainly, some dressed up in wealth, Zhou Lianrong felt an inexplicable sadness in her heart. Maybe no matter how noble her status or wealth, Yes, they are all the same in some respects.
"Miss, the carriage is ready, let's go back now!" The girl next to her supported Zhou Lianrong and looked at her face. She knew that her young lady was not in a good mood at this time, so she was very careful when speaking.
"Well, let's go back!" Zhou Lianrong looked helpless and let the girl help her walk.
After two days out, it was time to go back.
"Hey! Why is she here?" Suddenly, Zhou Lianrong looked at the figure in front of her and said in surprise.
"It's Doctor Xiao." The girl looked happy when she saw the visitor. Suddenly she thought of her own girl's mood and couldn't help but feel uneasy. Normally, the girl disliked hearing the name Xiao Ming the most.
Zhou Lianrong fell silent as she looked at the sound and shadow in front of her. In the past, the person she disliked the most would have been Xiao Ming. In her opinion, what was it like to walk around the streets and treat people every day?
Girls should live the way girls should live.
Even after learning that Xiao Ming cured the infertility of Magistrate Peng's wife and that Xiao Ming's reputation and status in Pingcheng gradually improved, she still looked down on Xiao Ming.
In the past, she was aloof and looked down upon Xiao Ming.
But now, she suddenly discovered that Xiao Ming was someone she looked up to, especially since her mother kept telling her how brilliant and powerful Xiao Ming's medical skills were every day. She even asked her to ask Xiao Ming to take a look. the meaning of.
Even though she had to admit Xiao Ming's medical skills, she was still unwilling.
She couldn't let go of her arrogance, and she couldn't bow her head in front of a woman like Xiao Ming.
I always feel inferior.
Zhou Lianrong thought for a moment, and finally pushed the girl next to her as if she had made up her mind: "Go and find out what Xiao Ming is doing here."
