Chapter 46
Lin'an took a step forward and said, "Is the dowry for the Zhou family a cash gift or a dowry?" Guo Pun said in a voice, "Give her the bank note, how much is owed in total, go and inquire."

"The old man has already inquired clearly when he came back. I heard from Xiao Sier that he owes a total of three thousand nine hundred and ninety taels of silver." Lin'an turned around, Guo Pu was indifferent and smiling, and Feng Luan would not turn around and say that the dowry was less Alright.She only needs 90 taels, and only ten taels of silver is left to do!
Seeing his smile, Chang Ping said courteously: "The Zhou family is extremely poor, this dowry must be disgraceful. The young master is a good match, do you want to help a bunch?"

Guo Pu opened his eyes, and slowly turned cold: "How can there be so much nonsense, it's her fault that she can't get the dowry!" Chang Ping agreed, and Guo Pu felt that Chang Ping's words were reasonable, and said: " talk later."

"There are a lot of belongings in the warehouse. I think it's a pity to leave them for nothing." Chang Ping smiled and said, "That's what slaves mean." Guo Pu still said the same thing: "We'll talk about it when grandfather and mother come back." Then he asked his father: "Say Have dinner with me, and you haven't come back yet?"

Guo Youyin just walked in: "Here, I'll be back in a hurry, Brother Pu, how do you feel today?" He came to see his son, and asked this second time.Guo Pu said, "I'm fine."

At the end of such a conversation, the father and son still knew that it might not be all right.But Guo Youyin felt comfortable when he had to ask this question.

When Guo's father and son were having dinner, a yamen servant knocked on the door of Zhou's house and said to Lai'an, "The magistrate of the county asked me to tell you that Mr. Zhou is inconvenient and cannot be kept in prison for a long time. You are being released on bail pending trial. Get sick at home."

When Lai'an got the news, he jumped up and down happily to report it.Since Zhou Shiyuan entered, Gu fell ill on the same day.She took care of the patients day and night, and worried about her family. When her husband was arrested and her home was smashed, Gu fell ill the same day she couldn't support herself.

Feng Luan came back from Zhou's house and was taking care of her mother, when she saw Lai An jumping in and shouting: "Master can come back." Gu Shi got up from the bed: "What did you say?"

"The sixth yamen servant came in front of the door, saying that he was being released on bail pending trial." Lai An was so happy that tears welled up in his eyes, Feng Luan felt much relieved, and was very grateful to Guo Pu, and he had only entered the house for less than an hour. He gets it done.

It was done so quickly, which made Feng Luan feel aggrieved to marry Guo Pu.Seeing that everyone in the family likes it, and her mother has become tougher, Feng Luan thought it was worth it.

Hired a small sedan chair to pick up Zhou Shiyuan at the gate of the yamen, Feng Luan was about to cry again, Zhou Shiyuan's spirit remained undiminished, and advised his daughter: "It's a good thing for me to come out, go back and cry again."

The sedan chair passed through the street and passed by Mao's restaurant. The shopkeeper Mao's eyes were about to pop out. He couldn't believe his ears, so he went out of the counter and hid himself inside the door to listen.

Someone familiar with the sedan chair asked Lai An: "Your master has come out?" Zhou Shiyuan lifted the sedan chair curtain with his crutches and smiled: "Innocent people will not be wronged."

Shopkeeper Mao felt depressed, what happened to the Zhou family this week?What's going on in this yamen?Although Mr. Qiu, the current county magistrate, has a good official reputation, he is also a person who asks for money.Does the Zhou family still have money?

He changed his clothes and hurried to look for shopkeeper Wu who had dinner with Mr. Guo and Zhou Shiyuan that day. When he saw him, he asked, "Did the Zhou family pay you back?"

Shopkeeper Wu was caressing his beloved copper censer, and laughed when he saw Wenwen: "Didn't you hear that there is no money to pay back the disaster after disaster. By the way, he is sitting in prison. The money you and I can't pay." What should I do? I have calculated that his shop is worth about 150 taels. For the house, let’s count it as 200 taels. Don’t rob me, I have to ask for it first. I don’t care about yours.”

"He was sitting at home, only to see him coming out of prison." Shopkeeper Mao said, and shopkeeper Wu's eyes were about to pop out: "What's the matter? My shop is not on the street, I don't know. Could it be that there is money to manage it? "

Shopkeeper Mao sneered: "That's right. We are here to pity him. Doesn't he have a backup? There must be some money left in the family. Otherwise, he has been ill for a month, and I don't see him panicking."

"That's right, if he had no money left, why would he simply give you the money when your family retired. If it were me, I wouldn't retire and drag down your family." Shopkeeper Wu thought for a moment, stroking his beard Zha's chin said: "There must be money."

"Let's go! Make an appointment with some people, let's ask for money!" The shopkeeper Mao blushed when he heard the word "retirement", but he was refreshed when he heard the money.

I made an appointment with a few more people and went to Zhou's house together. On the way, I thought about the reason for going. It was called a visit. After seeing Zhou Shiyuan, I would definitely withdraw money by the way.

Lai'an rolled his eyes and let the guests in, Fengluan came out to salute: "Uncles please wait a moment, father will come out."

After saying this, another person came in from outside, and Lai An, who was following him, still rolled his eyes and nose, "Hmph!"

This talent came to the hall, and all the people present stood up, scrambling to meet him, bowing to each other, bending their waists to the ground: "Master Guo."

The person who came was Guo Youzhao, the only son of the second room of the Guo family, and Guo Pu's uncle.

Guo Youzhao was the best with Dafangli, and his age was about the same age as Guo Pu, and he was the best with Guo Pu, so Guo Pu invited him to come.He went up to the steps, he returned the salute casually, and looked at the girl in the room with straight and sharp eyes.

Tsing Yi and Qing Skirt, only a silver hairpin and a bramblewood hairpin on her jet-black hair.There is no decoration, and the water looks like a lotus flower just out of water.Guo Youzhao smiled at Feng Luan: "Miss Zhou, I came to talk to these people, and I found you at your house, no wonder."

Feng Luan was seen blushing, knowing that Guo Youzhao must be the one who knew, and hurriedly bowed her body to return the salute: "Master Guo, please sit up, and father will come out."

Guo Youzhao came to work and not to be a guest, so he just smiled: "My lord, please don't come out, let's talk outside." Then he said to the shopkeeper Wu: "I ordered you in the restaurant, everyone go have a glass of wine."

There must be a reason for his treat.The shopkeeper Wu didn't realize that they were speaking for the Zhou family again, they thought it was a business matter, and suddenly forgot about Zhou Shiyuan, saying: "Okay, let's go as soon as we say it."

Only Shopkeeper Mao's heart felt weak, and he felt it.Pretending to glance at Feng Luan unintentionally, seeing her shyness and not daring to raise her head, and seeing Guo Youzhao's meaningful smile, shopkeeper Mao's heart thumped, and half the sky almost collapsed.This week's girl, is she really going to Guo's house?

"Miss Zhou, farewell." Guo Youzhao smiled at Fengluan again. Everyone noticed that Guo Youzhao was looking at Fengluan. Shopkeeper Wu touched the people around him and said in a low voice, "This girl from the Zhou family is getting more and more lively."

Said that he saw Guo Youzhao walking forward, and shopkeeper Wu also hurried to follow.Shopkeeper Mao walked to the gate, turned around and saw Feng Luan on the steps leaning forward, holding the door with his hand to look here, looking dazed and shy.
