Chapter 10-10. Asking for an IOU
Tian Erya saw the fallen paper, quickly picked it up, went to the young masters who were playing around, and offered the paper respectfully with both hands: "Master, your article has been lost."

Zheng Yuanchen saw the words 'Stupid, let's play together after class' written on the paper, and at a glance he knew it was written by his partner Shan Cong, snatched it away, and looked at Tian Erya in disbelief: "You call this an article?"

Tian Erya was a little surprised: "There are words on it! Isn't it an article?"

Shan Cong heard it, and immediately leaned over, looked at the words on the paper, and then looked at her: "You don't know how to read?"

"Yeah." Tian Erya nodded, "I haven't been to school. Young master, you are busy, I have to go to work."

Shan Cong saw Tian Erya wiping the pillars, and poked Zheng Yuanchen: "Your maid is not bad, she works very quickly, and is much better than the poor maid hired by my family."

Zheng Yuanchen pouted: "She's not a maid."

"It's not a maid, why do you work so neatly?" Shan Cong suddenly remembered, "I see, is she the fake bride your fourth brother married?"

Zheng Yuanchen was angry: "Don't talk nonsense. What kind of bride? My fourth brother never agreed to marry her, and there was nothing between the two of them. It was her brazenness who stayed at my house. My fourth brother felt sorry for her and let her stay until Miss Wu's family came back and explained everything clearly before leaving, that's all."

"It turns out that she is so shameless that she wants to entangle your fourth brother!" Shan Cong rolled his eyes, "Since she is so brazen, how about we play tricks on her?"

The companions were very happy to come up and surround him: "How to play tricks?"

Zheng Yuanchen was also very interested, and urged: "Hurry up, don't talk about it."

Shan Cong beckoned, and when they surrounded them, he lowered his voice, "That woman is illiterate, so let's take advantage of her to play tricks on her, and make her look really ugly."

Zheng Yuanchen gave a thumbs up: "Good idea. I heard that there is a well-known Hui troupe singing in the Fuhua teahouse. People in the city like to go there recently. If that woman loses face in the teahouse, then her The embarrassing story will soon spread throughout the city. She will no longer be able to lift her head in our Zheng family. But, what are you going to do?"

Shan Cong babbled to them, they all nodded and ran towards the study together.

After a while, Zheng Yuanchen led them out, walked in front of Tian Erya, and coughed lightly.

Tian Erya quickly put down the rag in her hand: "Young Master, what are your orders?"

Seeing her innocent face, Zheng Yuanchen suddenly began to hesitate.

Seeing that he was speechless, Shan Cong immediately stepped forward and said, "We have an important errand for you. If you finish it well, we will reward you with a tael of silver."

"A tael of silver?" Tian Erya beamed with joy, "I want to do my best to do what the young masters have ordered. However, I don't know if I can complete it."

"Sure. Fuhua Tea House has invited an Hui troupe to sing a big opera. A martial artist in it once lent me ten taels of silver. I asked him for it, but he refused to give it to me. I will write you a note. You Ask him for it for me, and I'll pay you a tael of silver."

Tian Erya's eyes widened: "Ten taels of silver, do you have ten taels of silver on your body to lend to others?" Ten taels of silver is enough for their household for more than half a year. A child can afford so much, they will not lie to her Bar?

Seeing her suspicious eyes, Shan Cong immediately put on a serious face: "Why? You don't believe it? My family runs many tea houses and has hundreds of servants. I carry ten taels of silver with me. What's the point?"

When Tian Erya heard that this was a child of a rich family, she quickly waved her hands: "I have no doubts. I just haven't collected debts for others, so I'm not sure if I can do it."

"You must be capable." Shan Cong handed her a piece of paper, "It says that Wusheng surnamed Liu owes me ten taels of silver. You enter the teahouse, hold this piece of paper to your chest, and ask that Wusheng for it." silver."

Tian Erya took the paper he gave and hesitated: "Can I really get the money back?"

Shan Cong nodded: "Sure, he will definitely give you ten taels of silver when he sees the IOU with my name on it. I will give you one tael first, and you must do this well!"

"You don't need to give it to me first, it won't be too late after I get the money back."

Looking at her ignorant face, Zheng Yuanchen suddenly felt a little guilty, stepped forward and took Shan Cong's tael of silver, and threw it to her: "A tael of silver is just pocket money for us, you just take it."

Tian Erya took the tael of silver, her face flushed with excitement: "Thank you, young master, I will definitely ask for the money."

Shan Cong swaggered: "Okay, you can go now! We will wait here."

"Okay." Tian Erya walked out immediately.

Seeing that she really walked out of the gate, Zheng Yuanchen couldn't bear it: "Why do we really want to do that?"

"Of course!" Shan Cong didn't feel guilty at all, "You see how greedy she is when she sees Yinzi, if you don't play tricks on her, you will be sorry for that little Yinzi. Let's go and see how embarrassing she is."

Zheng Yuanchen didn't want to go, but he still followed his companions out.

Tian Erya inquired all the way to Fuhua Tea House.

Zheng Yuansheng was dragged out by his friends to relax, and was listening to opera at Fuhua Teahouse, when he saw Tian Erya appearing at the gate of the teahouse out of the corner of his eye, he wondered what she was doing here.

Tian Erya inquired about the location of the troupe with others, and went backstage.

An old man dressed as a clown was sitting and resting by the door. When he saw her coming in, he waved his hand quickly: "Please go to the front when watching the show. This is where we rest."

Tian Erya hurriedly explained: "I don't go to the theater, I'm here to find a martial artist surnamed Liu."

The old man waved to a martial artist who was walking down the stage: "Da Liu, this girl is looking for you."

Big Liu Gang had a tense performance on the stage, and now he is a little tired. When he heard someone looking for him, he walked over impatiently: "What do you want from me?"

Tian Erya hurried to his side, took out the piece of paper from her bosom: "You are a martial artist surnamed Liu? You borrowed ten taels of silver from a young master, and he asked me to ask you for it. This is the The IOU written by the young master, please give me the silver."

Da Liu looked at the words on the paper and almost stumbled: "Are you sure I borrowed someone else's money?"

"Yes, it's written in black and white!"

Da Liu looked at her suspiciously: "Do you know how to read?"

Tian Erya shook her head and argued again: "Isn't it written with 'ten'? I don't know other characters, but I still know this one. Please give me the ten taels of silver quickly."

Da Liu chuckled: "Girl, you made a mistake. I have never borrowed money from others. Please leave quickly! I still need to rest!"

"No, you have to give me money. If you don't give me money, you can't rest."

"Girl, I really don't owe you money."

Tian Erya hurriedly held up the paper and pointed to the words on it: "It's not the money owed to me, but the money owed to a young master, and his name is on it. You have read the IOU, and you have to accept it, so hurry up and pay it back. "

There was a burst of cheers and applause outside.

The owner of the restaurant came in and thanked you with cupped hands: "Everyone has worked hard. The guests outside are very satisfied with your performance just now. I very much hope that you can repeat it again. I hope you can work hard to perform on stage again. I thank you all here."

The performers who had just stepped off the stage bowed their hands and returned the salute one after another, but they did not answer, and focused their eyes on the innermost female role.

Seeing this, the owner of the restaurant immediately approached Danjiao: "Boss Sai, people call you Sai Diaochan, and the guests outside are all looking for you. Please come on stage and perform another song."

Boss Sai started Cherry Xiaokou: "It's not that I don't give you this face, we have sung three times in a row, even if the donkey is pulling the mill, we have to give it a rest!"

"I know you have worked hard." The owner of the teahouse turned his gaze to Liu, "How about Mr. Liu performing a piece of his famous "Dingjun Mountain" for everyone?"

"I'm almost unable to turn around now. Besides, I'm busy! Didn't you see that someone asked me for a bill?" Da Liu pointed to Tian Erya.
