Chapter 63 White Lies
Xia Jizu nodded, "In the past few days, Mother told me to have some fun and relax, so as not to be bored at home.

I went out for a walk, and happened to meet Mr. Jiang and the others, and sat down to play cards together! "

Hearing that Xia Jizu really went to play cards, Fang subconsciously wanted to raise his hand to slap him in the mouth, but seeing his son's face full of grievances, his heart trembled, and he felt a little bit reluctant.

Fang was stunned for a moment, rolled her eyes, turned her head to look at Xia Shuheng, and said with a smile.

"Master, I'm to blame for this. I told Jizu to stay bored at home, so I let him go out to have fun."

At this point, Fang's tone paused, and then continued, "However, it's just playing cards with friends, so you won't be beaten, master, don't you think so?"

Xia Shuheng ignored Fang, glared at Xia Jizu, and said angrily, "Say, how much money did you lose in total?"

Hearing Xia Shuheng's tone of displeasure, Xia Jizu subconsciously took a step back, and then said in a whisper.

"I lost all the 600 taels of silver that my mother gave me, and, also, I also lost all of the 2 taels of silver that I borrowed from them!"

Hearing the number Xia Jizu said, Xia Shuheng's eyes froze for a moment, he turned his head to look at Fang's, and shouted sharply.

"Tell me, what did you give him the 600 taels of silver for? What can cost so much money?"

"me……."

Fang hesitated for a moment, thinking for a moment, her beautiful eyes gradually became moist, and soon, they gathered into tears, flowing down her fair cheeks.

"Master, our Xia family only has this son. If the ancestor goes out without a few taels of silver, wouldn't it be looked down upon by people, and it would be bad for the Xia family's reputation."

Having said that, Fang wiped the corners of his eyes before continuing.

"For the sake of the Xia family's face, and I don't want to embarrass the master, I don't want to eat, I don't want to drink, I saved up a little silver, and asked my ancestor to go out to show off, but now, you are blaming me for giving the silver to my ancestor. what……."

Speaking of this, Fang's tears flowed even more, and his voice choked up!

Seeing Fang's aggrieved look, Xia Shuheng couldn't help but soften his heart, but he still felt a little distressed when he thought that his son had lost so much money. He turned his head to look at Xia Jizu, and shouted sharply.

"You, a prodigal, lost so much money, who are you worthy of?"

Hearing Xia Shuheng's words, Xia Jizu suddenly raised his face full of grievances, and said in a low voice.

"Father, my son doesn't lose all the time. When I came back yesterday, I won several times!"

Speaking of this, Xia Jizu's tone paused, his face was full of confidence, "Father, if I go today, maybe I can win back all the money I lost, maybe even win a few thousand!" What about two?"

Hearing Xia Jizu's words, Xia Shuheng suddenly became furious, jumped up from the chair, and stretched out his hand to hit Xia Jizu.

Seeing that her precious son was about to be beaten, Fang screamed in fright, and immediately stood in front of Xia Shuheng, holding Xia Shuheng's hand tightly with both hands, and said with a choked voice.

"Master, if you want to fight, you can hit me. You attack hard. If you break the ancestor, our Xia family will be ruined!"

Hearing this, Xia Shuheng exhaled two rough breaths from his nostrils, and said angrily, "You still have the face to say, if you didn't spoil him so much, how dare he do this?"

Hearing Xia Shuheng's words, Fang burst into tears, "Master, calm down, don't worry, I will discipline him well, and I will pay for the 2 taels he lost."

Having said that, Fang choked up a few times, and then said aggrievedly.

"My lord, it's all my fault. Who made me give birth to such a disappointing son? If I give birth to a few daughters like the elder sister, wouldn't it be worry-free, woo woo..."

Hearing Fang's words, and looking at the only seedling in his own family, Xia Shuheng couldn't bear it even more, so he could only sigh, and stretched out his hand to support Fang.

"Don't talk about it, it's my fault for speaking hastily. My Xia family can still afford to lose the 2 taels of silver lost by our ancestors. How can we be reduced to the point where you have to pay the silver."

Having said this, Xia Shuheng's tone paused, and he turned his head and told a servant next to him, "Go to the accounting office and pay 2 taels of cash!"

Fang's heart was secretly happy when he heard the words, but the tears in his eyes flowed even more, "Master, I'm sorry for you, I will definitely discipline my ancestors in the future, and I will never let him make mistakes!"

Xia Meng, who was at the side, dreamed that the famous servant Ding was going to pay the cashier at the cashier, so he waved his hands to stop him.

Xia Mengmeng took out the 2 taels of silver notes she just earned today, put them on the table next to Xia Shuheng, and sighed.

"Father, there's no need to go to the cashier to pay the banknotes. This is the 2 taels of silver that I just earned today. Let Jizu take these two banknotes and go and pay back the silver owed."

Xia Shuheng was stunned for a moment when he heard the words, and just as he was about to speak, Fang, who was wiping away tears, had already taken the bank notes on the table in his hand, and said with a smile.

"Master, our Xia family has a lot of silver, even if our ancestors lose a little, it's nothing, just remember to be happy, isn't it better than anything!"

At this moment, Xia Shuheng didn't listen to Fang's words, but just waved his hands, "You go out first, let Jizu use the silver to pay back the money, tell him, don't let him play cards again!"

When Fang heard the words, she hurriedly responded, holding the bank note in one hand and her precious son in the other, and left the inner hall quickly with a happy face.

Seeing Fang and Xia Jizu leaving, Xia Shuheng turned his head to look at Xia Mengmeng and asked with some doubts.

"Meng'er, what's with the 2 taels of silver?"

Hearing Xia Shuheng's question, Xia Mengmeng was about to tell what happened today, but suddenly saw Ye Qingqing winking at him, his heart suddenly moved, and he immediately took back what he was about to say.

"Father, today, my daughter went to buy that Jade Buddha statue. It's funny to say, maybe it's because of the bad light today, they didn't see the real quality of that Jade Buddha statue, but my daughter took advantage of it and bought it first. The Jade Buddha Statue that was placed under him was then sold to them at a higher price.

As a result, the daughter did not touch the jade Buddha statue, and earned them 2 taels of silver. "

After hearing Xia Mengmeng's words, Xia Shuheng was overjoyed immediately, and asked with a busy smile, "Meng'er, didn't that old fox Jin Zhenggui see the quality of that Jade Buddha statue?"

Xia Mengmeng smiled and replied, "Of course, if Uncle Jin can see the quality of the Jade Buddha statue, then wouldn't he have earned the 2 taels of silver!"

"Ha ha……."

Hearing these words, Xia Shuheng immediately burst out laughing. Jin Zhenggui had been fighting with him since he was young, and in the end, he kept fighting to no end, but unexpectedly, he was defeated by his daughter.
