Chapter 1129 The Second Mrs. Du Became the Daughter of a Criminal Minister (4)
Master Qi was trembling, and took an account book from his arms and said: "This is what the old man asked me to write down every time he collected money. I was afraid that my home would be unsafe, so I hid it in another courtyard. When the Ministry of punishment comes today, I will write it down." , I was going out with the boy, so I went to the other courtyard to get this thing and came back. Most of the things on it are kept at home, only some cash silver jewelry and so on. I can’t get it out for a while, although the Ministry of Punishment came to spot check today, but there is nothing missing, I was thinking, otherwise, if we hand it over by ourselves, it would be good to replace the old man.”

Master Du Er flipped through the ledger, and almost turned his head in anger. Compared with the things on it, the ledger in Anjitang was nothing more than a drop in the bucket.

"How much money is there?" Second Master Du only asked with a face.

"The silver is still 3000 taels short, and there are still a few Zhuangzi in the family. It should be about the same if you sell it. It's just that you can't find a seller at this time." Master Qi said, with only Qi Qiran on his face. With a look on his face, he quietly glanced at Master Du Er.

"I can't come up with so much money for a while, so how about it, tomorrow morning you take this account book to the Ministry of Criminal Justice to surrender, and now things are so big, you have, I am afraid that the British Duke is only more than you, not more than you Young, when the time comes, you will be considered guilty and meritorious, and see if you can change the master back first." The second master Du said, frowned and thought for a while, and called the boy to come in and said: "You go to the second wife, Let her pack up the 5000 taels of silver bills and some of her clothes and jewelry, and pawn them to my uncle to collect some silver."

Second Master Du works in Tai Hospital, and is also a Qingshui yamen, and the Du family is rich and powerful, so he never valued his salary. I have only saved 5000 taels for so many years, which is indeed small enough.

Master Du thought for a while, called Steward Du to come in, took out his private seal, and wrote a post for Steward Du to take with him: "Take this post and go to Shunyuan Bank to get 5000 yuan tomorrow morning." The [-] taels of silver note came out and sent to my uncle's house."

When Master Du Er heard this, he was immediately stunned and said, "Brother, you can't take the money from the store, you have to buy the goods and turn around."

Master Du just waved his hand and said, "Forget it, they are all relatives, so help first if you can. Your father-in-law is getting old, so let's talk about it after he gets out of prison."

Master Du Er's eyes were only red, and he walked to the desk and wrote an IOU with a pen, signed his name, and handed it to Master Qi, "Of course I don't want you to return my money, but this is Baoshantang. I can't cheat him for a penny, and I hope my uncle will forgive me."

Master Qi signed the IOU, and only thanked him with his hand: "When the old man comes back, no matter if the house is demolished to buy land, the money must be paid back."

The two watched Master Qi leave. Master Du took a few steps, walked up to Second Master Du, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Do you regret it?"

Second Master Du just shook his head and sighed: "Brother, you didn't see that account book just now. If you saw it, even if you had a bit of regret, it's gone. It's just..." Second Master Du said this, thinking of After all, Old Master Qi is his father-in-law, so he just gritted his teeth and said, "Forget it, brother, I will definitely return your money. Even if you don't have any money now, when Baoshantang separates in the future, the money must be given to you." figured out alone."

"The old lady's body is still strong. It's too early to talk about the separation. It's getting late. You should go back and rest first. I heard that the second sibling fainted from anxiety today. You should go and have a look."
