Chapter 44 2 taels of silver

Aunt Rong at the other end hurried to her second brother's house and knocked on the door.Aunt Hua's second brother's house is located in the outskirts of the capital, a big house with four entrances and four exits.

In the past, when the servants of the Hua family saw her, they would call out respectfully: "Grandma~"

But today, when the Hua family saw her, they blocked the door to prevent her from entering.

After all, everyone knows that my master was implicated by this aunt and imprisoned. Whether he can come out is another matter.The hostess of the house gave an order not to let this aunt come to the door.

Since when was Aunt Rong so neglected, she hurriedly urged: "Quickly call your wife out."

Just as he was talking, the lady with a big arm and a round waist came out with her arms akimbo in the gate, angrily cursing: "Oh, you little bastard still has the face to come to see me, what have you done to your brother!"

When Aunt Rong heard this, she became very angry.

She conspired with the money in Xia's treasury, but both elder brother and sister-in-law knew about it.The money is shared equally by both parties.Now that something happened, the responsibility was pushed to her alone.

But right now, in front of the servants, she can only swallow her anger and say:
"What is my sister-in-law saying? I came here to save my second brother. My sister-in-law should quickly take out the money in the bank and go to jail to save my brother."

The second sister-in-law Hua is not a kind person, so she immediately raised her eyebrows and cursed:
"What a sister-in-law, where do I, a woman, get the money to say such heartless words? My sister-in-law has enriched my own pocket over the years, and even my own brother can't afford to save it."

Aunt Rong couldn't help retorting: "Sister-in-law, obviously my brother has a lot of money in his bank."

Over the years, the money she earned from Xia's family and from Fan Shuyao's so many dowry shops has been shared with her brother a lot.

Otherwise, her brother doesn't do business and doesn't know how to do business. How could he afford such a big house in Beijing, marry a wife, and support such a large group of people.

Seeing this, the second sister-in-law Hua rushed out and shouted: "Go quickly, and be careful that I will reveal your scandals."

As he spoke, he said proudly, "Your brother has already told me, don't think I don't know."

Aunt Rong immediately backed away with a guilty conscience, seeing the door being closed heavily, Aunt Rong was so angry that she had no choice but to go to the bank by herself and take out the private money.

She knew that if she didn't make up for the Xia family's money, she would never have a chance to stand up in the Xia family.For future consideration, she had to bleed temporarily.

As soon as Aunt Rong came out of the bank, Xia Keyu knew about it.She kept ordering the members of the Fan family to keep an eye on Aunt Rong secretly, and that person told Xia Keyu everything that Aunt Rong had said to Sister-in-law Hua in detail.

"Miss, what is the scandal that Aunt Rong has done?" Qing Ya asked curiously.

Xia Keyu shook her head, she didn't have any clues, Aunt Rong in her previous life had been living smoothly, and she didn't expose any scandals.

However, after learning that Aunt Rong had brought out a stack of banknotes, Xia Keyu's eyes lit up, and she thought about it, and came up with a good idea.

She waved her sleeves, picked up a pen, and wrote a letter to Chu Guogong, asking for his help with something.

Duke Chu's Mansion
"Grandpa, here's the letter, here's the letter~" Chi Yan joyfully shook the letter in his hand, trotting all the way into the room.

He knew that the father-in-law liked receiving letters from Miss Xia the most.

After seeing the two people sitting in the room clearly, Chi Yan hurriedly stopped talking, embarrassed to say: "Meet the prince~"

I don't know when the crown prince came, but thinking of this, Chi Yan hurriedly wanted to leave.

"Put the letter down." Chu Yuan said lightly.

Chi Yan hurriedly and carefully placed the letter on the table, and then carefully backed out.

Chu Yuan stretched out his hand unintentionally, and decisively received the letter in his sleeve.

Prince Zheng Rui was a little curious. Where did this letter come from? It made my uncle seem to care so much, but he still said respectfully:
"Uncle, the Korean envoy is coming soon."

Speaking of this, Prince Zheng Rui remembered something, and a trace of pain flashed in his eyes.

Chu Yuan nodded and exhorted:

"Your Majesty will naturally send someone to receive this matter. This time, the Korean envoys are here for a marriage. It is rumored that His Majesty intends to send the fifth princess to be married. You don't need to interfere with this matter."

Prince Zheng Rui hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "Rui'er would like to listen to my uncle's instruction."

After speaking, Chu Yuan said, "It's getting late, you should go back to the palace early."

Zheng Rui looked outside, the sky was still bright, and the sky was full of red clouds.No matter how you look at it, it's still early.However, he heard the meaning of driving people away in his uncle's words, this was the first time in history.

After all, when I came here before, my uncle would give me some advice.

Immediately got up and said: "Rui'er bid farewell to uncle, uncle take care of yourself~"

Until he walked out of Duke Chu's mansion, Prince Zheng Rui was still a little confused, why did uncle drive him away today?

After seeing off the prince, Chu Yuan took out the letter from his sleeve, opened it and read it.

He was afraid that Xia Keyu had something to ask him, and he was delayed by him.

After seeing clearly what was in his heart, Chu Yuan couldn't help but frowned. This matter was a bit of a nonsense.

Chi Yan, who was at the side, had already quietly walked in, and asked for instructions: "My lord, what orders does Xia Enren have?"

Chu Yuan hesitated again and again, put away the letter, and urged:
"You go and ask someone to find someone who is good at stealing, and "take" back the banknotes taken out by Aunt Rong, the concubine of the Xia family, and give them to Miss Xia."

He deliberately used the word "take" instead of "steal".

As soon as these words came out, both master and servant were unavoidably silent.

Although everyone knew that Aunt Rong's money was taken from the Fan family's dowry shop, it would be shocking to ask someone to steal it back.

Chi Yan now admires Xia Keyu so much that he is second only to his own father-in-law, so he immediately takes orders and plans to go out to find someone.

Chu Yuan in the room sighed. Could it be that she is so short of money?It was so omnipotent.

A thought arose, Chu Yuan stopped Chi Yan, took off his badge, put it on the table and said:
"You take my waist card, take out 2 taels of silver from the warehouse, and send it to Miss Xia when it's time for Miss Xia's housewarming."

"Remember, take it from my private treasury, keep this matter secret, don't let grandma know."

Chi Yan's eyes widened, it was a total of 2 taels of snow-patterned silver.

But when she thought that Miss Xia had saved his father-in-law's life, even ten thousand taels of gold could not be exchanged for his father-in-law's life.

Now it's just a mere 2 taels of silver.

Thinking of this, Chi Yan immediately thought about it again, took the waist card and said: "Follow orders~"
