Zhou's mouth twitched, and Jiang Ruanxi pretended not to notice.

"Don't worry about it. The Marquis is a filial person. Even if you don't take money, I believe that the Marquis will definitely be filial to you in the future. However, if the Marquis is promoted, life will be easier in the future, and I can be more filial to you, but if the Marquis's promotion doesn't work, the Marquis' life will be difficult in the future, and my mother's life will not be much better either."

How could Mr. Zhou not understand this truth?

She naturally hopes that her son's life will get better and better, and her face will be brighter.

But she really doesn’t have that much money!

"Mother, at this time, why are you still hesitating? Do you really not want to help me?"

Seeing that she was still hesitant, Lin Ningkun had clearly lost his patience.

"No, no, I want to help you."

"Then why did you say you don't have that much money?"

Mrs. Zhou remained silent again, and Lin Runkun suddenly became angry when he saw that several people couldn't explain why.

"I said you are joking? I said it well before. I will help you find a way. Money matters are not a problem, but now the opportunity for promotion is right in front of you, and you can't make a decision? That's all, co-authored I see that you don’t want this opportunity either, so I’d better ask who in the clan needs it.”

Seeing this, Lin Ningkun panicked. Seeing Lin Ningkun was about to leave, he quickly pulled him and said, "Second uncle, we are serious and we are not joking."

Lin Runkun obviously didn't believe it.

Lin Ningkun winked at Jiang Ruanxi, and Jiang Ruanxi looked at Mrs. Zhou, "Mother, do you really want to make the Marquis's hard work go to waste?"

Zhou was also anxious, and then said in a panic, "No, I didn't mean that, but I really don't have that much money."

"Mother, where did your dowry go?"

"I..." Mrs. Zhou glanced at Lin Ningkun, then at Lin Runkun, then lowered her head and said with a guilty conscience, "I gave it all to your elder brother."

Lin Ningkun was stunned, Lin Runkun was surprised, but Jiang Ruanxi pretended to be surprised, "Mom, my eldest brother is at home, and all his daily expenses are paid by the mansion. Why would he ask you for money if he is a good person?"

"You, your elder brother have something important to do. I need to use it urgently." Zhou hesitated and did not explain the matter clearly. Even at this moment, he did not know what to say.

He just said with certainty, "But don't worry, your eldest brother said that this money was obtained from my dowry, and he will definitely return it to us."

return?

A sneer appeared in Jiang Ruan Xi's heart. Everyone knew that Lin Feng, the direct son of the Lin family, was a man who was good at eating, drinking, whoring, and gambling.

Originally he was uneducated and a typical playboy.

Otherwise, when the old Marquis was still alive, he would not have handed over this family to Lin Ningkun.

He said he wanted to pay back the money, which was just a lie to Mr. Zhou.

"Mother, how can you be so confused?"

Lin Ningkun's anger could no longer be restrained, with heavy anger on his face, "Don't you know what kind of person eldest brother is? How could you give him the money, and what he said, can you believe it? ?”

That is a typical prodigal, a bottomless pit.

It's simply not full.

Zhou also knew Lin Feng's virtue, but still felt that her son was not that unbearable.

"Ning Kun, your eldest brother is not the eldest brother before. Many things about him have changed. Don't say he won't pay it back. I believe he will."

"Master Marquis, it doesn't matter if my eldest brother still hasn't paid back the money. You are more anxious now."

Jiang Ruanxi's words brought Lin Ningkun back to his senses instantly. He knew that Lin Runkun would still be around at this moment, and he couldn't lose control at this time.

"Second uncle, there is something urgent at home. I will answer the money matter tomorrow."

No matter how angry he was, matters concerning his family's property were also his family's private affairs, and he didn't want Lin Runkun to know about it.

"Master Marquis, this matter is big or small, and the opportunity is rare." The clan leader said seriously, "If we lose this opportunity, we will have to wait for a long time for the next opportunity."

Lin Ningkun naturally knew the importance, "Second uncle, don't worry, I will take care of it no matter what."

"Okay, you will deliver the money at noon tomorrow, otherwise, I will treat you as giving up this opportunity."

After Lin Runkun left, Lin Ningkun's eyes became solemn.

"Mother, where has eldest brother gone?"

Zhou's expression was flustered, her eyes evasive, "Where else can we go? Didn't I tell you that I would go back to her natal home with your sister-in-law?"

"Mom, my eldest sister-in-law's natal family is near Kyoto. It takes an hour to go back and forth. My eldest brother has been gone for more than half a month. I always live in my mother-in-law's natal home. Isn't it suitable?" Jiang Ruanxi Kindly reminded.

"You also know that your sister-in-law is not used to living at home and goes back to her parents' house from time to time. Your elder brother is considerate of your sister-in-law, so he went to stay for a few days."

Isn't she used to it?

A face that looked a bit old appeared in Jiang Ruanxi's mind.

The He family was a well-known scholarly family in Kyoto, but later the family fell into decline. The He family was old and no one came to propose marriage, so the Lin family fell through the cracks.

My sister-in-law, Mrs. He, was from a well-educated family, so naturally she couldn't stand her husband. She spent her days eating, drinking, whoring, and gambling. She also made some noises, but with little effect, so she gave up in the end and simply stayed at her parents' house and never cared about the Lin family again. things.

"Mom, how can we just stay for a few days? My sister-in-law hasn't been home for a month. Didn't my eldest brother go to pick her up?" Jiang Ruanxi thought of something and continued, "I remember that when my eldest brother went there, he had He also holds many expensive gifts. Now that I think about it, it has been so long and there is still no movement. Could it be that the elder brother has gone to the same place again? "

This so-called old place is Chunhua Tower, a place where men go to have fun.

In my last life, I still remember that Lin Feng often went there.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Your elder brother is not that kind of person." Zhou argued for Lin Feng.

Jiang Ruanxi smiled, "If that's the case, then what is this?"

She took out an IOU from her arms and handed it to Lin Ningkun, "Master Hou, someone from Chunhua Tower sent this this morning. He said that if he didn't take the money, I'm afraid he would have to send it to the government. .”

what?

Not to mention Lin Ningkun was surprised, even Zhou was shocked.

She simply would not believe that Lin Feng would do such a thing.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Feng'er clearly promised me that he would coax the He family back. How could he possibly go to a place like that?"

"Mother, do you mean this note is fake?"
