He actually told his wife about it, which made him feel sour again.But then I thought again, he is such a gentle and gentle gentleman, he must not be willing to give and receive privately, so he will not hide it from his family.Anyway, he still took her words to heart...

Chu Heng didn't know that she was planning this idea, seeing her face mixed with joy and sadness, he thought she was thinking about the good or bad of the job, so he said to his mother-in-law: "Madam, although this job is not very good, it is still an official job. It is also good to get to know a few more people. Uncle's business is too big to be rushed for a while. If someone you know well entrusts you, wouldn't it be better than relying on someone who doesn't know the background?"

Mother He nodded and said, "That's true. Jin'er, go back and talk to Brother Ning."

Chu Heng said again: "Sister Cao, let me ask you, what is the name of the Zhongjuan entrusted by your brother? Which palace is in charge?"

Cao Jinxiu was taken aback, "This, my brother never said..."

Chu Heng said to He Mu: "Ma'am, just now my mother said that such an important matter of recovery is complicated. There is fraud here. Be sure to inquire properly, money is still a trivial matter, don't get involved in any lawsuits."

Mother He was actually very disturbed in her heart. After being reminded by her daughter-in-law, she said, "I think so too. Jin'er, tell Ning Ge'er that they don't know anyone in the capital, so be careful not to run into them." I miss Yanger."

Cao Jinxiu forced a smile and said, "Auntie, don't worry, my brother has even been to that person's house, the courtyard is very tidy... Besides, the person who has seen the big scene can't pretend anymore."

Chu Heng said: "That's not what I said. My sister forgot. There was a big sensational case the year before last. That man pretended to be a prince and traveled and abducted all his daughters? The prince pretends to be like that, let alone a eunuch."

Cao Jinxiu was a little annoyed, and replied: "The one who was duped is a wealthy local man, what do you know? My brother is still an official-" After all, he lost his confidence. His family had been defeated for more than ten years, and when he was not defeated, he would not be defeated. He is not considered a high-ranking official, and his elder brother and younger brother are all impetuous, so he may not have much water in his eyes.

Mother He said: "Liars are very powerful now, it's better to inquire carefully first. Tell Brother Ning not to give money in a hurry, it's not a joke. And one more thing, since the young master of the in-laws has already found a job, it's too late. Tell your brother it's serious."

Cao Jinxiu had no choice but to agree, and got up to go home, but she knew in her heart that her elder brother was in a hurry to give it to others as soon as he got the bank note.She herself knew that the relationship was serious, and the more she thought about it, the more she couldn't explain it. When she got home, she hurriedly asked Cao Ning to ask her.As a result, the person at the door said that the two Young Masters Cao had gone out long ago, but did not explain where they went.Cao Jinxiu had no choice but to wait at home, but the two of Cao Ning didn't come back until noon the next day.

Cao Jinxiu was angry. Mother He had already sent someone to ask about it, but it was so easy for her to evade it. At this time, seeing the two brothers went to the brothel as if they had nothing to do, she said with a straight face, "I'm asking you, you Is the person entrusted to you reliable? Why don't you keep an eye on him, and still have the mind to do these things!"

Cao Ning's joy was disturbed by her, and he said impatiently: "How many times have I said it, I am a very proper person!"

Cao Jinxiu said: "What's the proper way? Auntie said that she was afraid of meeting Nian Yang, so don't be in a hurry to give money."

Cao Yu said: "I've given you everything, are you only saying this now? Auntie, don't you feel sorry for the money?"

Cao Jinxiu said: "Don't talk about this now, it's better to get a reply early! Go to that man's house and inquire about it!"

Cao Ning said: "You are only assigned to be a concubine for a person like He Hongwen who has no future prospects in his life! You can't achieve great things! Haven't you heard of 'employees are not suspicious'? Have you ever seen someone come to the door every day to ask for help!"

Cao Jinxiu couldn't help blushing when he was robbed of his job, and said in a daze: "Now there is a general who wants to find two people who are proficient in literature and ink to take him to the post, can you go?"

Cao Ning waved his fan and said, "No! What kind of job is it to hang out with a bunch of Qiuba!"

Cao Jinxiu said: "Don't look down on me. After all, it's an errand for my lord. I missed it, but I don't know when I'll be able to find such an opportunity again."

Cao Yudao: "Third sister, are you confused? As long as father recovers, what kind of errands we can't get, why are you running off to do odd jobs for others now?"

Cao Ning said: "This is He Hongwen's idea, right? He and his wife are afraid that we will spend his family's money, so they rush to get us away. Once we leave, who do you rely on? Don't follow along."

Cao Jinxiu was a little sad, Zong Chulu had taken care of her, but his elder brother was ungrateful, how could he say no to him?Thinking like this, he frowned and said, "It's what Auntie meant."

Cao Ning tapped his palm with a fan and said, "Sure enough—you still can't see it now? After all, my aunt is still doing more to her own son. The few thousand taels of silver she gave us should have been left to her children and grandchildren, but now she regrets it." , that’s why there are so many pretensions. You just don’t hear, she will have nothing to say when things are done, and when we become prosperous, only she will come to beg us.”

Just as he was talking, Qingjuan brought tea.Cao Jinxiu didn't care to drink tea, and only said to Cao Ning: "Second brother, that's money sold from my aunt's dowry. You must be careful and don't make things difficult for my sister. If I am really deceived, I can't explain to the He family of……"

Cao Ning said impatiently: "No wonder He Hongwen is tired of you. If your sister-in-law dares to make such a noise, I'll slap her to shut her up." He didn't even eat tea, got up and went to the wing to rest.

Cao Yu looked at Qingjuan bewilderedly, and didn't care about her elder sister's face turning pale with anger, she cheekily said: "Sister San, you are a very hardworking and reliable girl, how about giving it to my brother?"

Qingjuan cried out in anger, dropped the tea tray, covered her face and went back.Cao Jinxiu said anxiously: "She has a family, what are you talking about! The last time almost forcing someone's life was not enough, let's bring this up again! Don't worry, this is not my home!" Saying this, she got up and went to look for someone in the back silk.

Qing Juan was crying in Nanny Huang's room. Cao Jinxiu remembered that the person she had engaged to marry was Nanny Huang's second son. Seeing Nanny Huang's livid face, one head became bigger than the other, so she forced herself to apologize and said with a smile: "My brother is an exaggeration. For my sake, Mammy, don't be as knowledgeable as him. I have already told him, and he said that he will apologize to Miss Juan, so he dare not mention it again."

Huang Nanny said: "I shouldn't talk about reasoning, but Young Master Biao is really too much! The picturesque things before are gone, and now it is even more inappropriate. Not to mention Young Master Biao, even the men of the family have no That's it! My aunt should tell my wife, it's no use losing face to the Cao family."

Cao Jinxiu hurriedly said: "What Mammy said is true, I will tell mother to punish him severely." She thought to herself, I hope her father recovers smoothly, otherwise she will not be able to live in the He family.

Cao Jinxiu didn't care about Cao Ning's impatience, so he urged him to inquire about the news the next day.Cao Ning and Cao Yu insisted that "employees are not suspicious", and when the pressure is tight, they just go out in a hurry, and then run to the brothel to have fun.It dragged on for a few more days, and Chu Heng sent someone to send a letter. It turned out that she had sent someone to the Baihua Building to inquire. He was generous, but he never inquired carefully about his origin.The man has not been here for a few days now.

Cao Jinxiu was a little panicked, and forced Brother Cao Ning to go to the man's house to investigate.The two went helplessly, only to find that the door was locked and there was no movement inside.At the beginning, Cao Ning insisted on supporting himself, saying that maybe the man was in a hurry, anyway, the eunuch couldn't escape in the palace anyway.After Cao Jinxiu finished speaking, Chu Heng sneered and said, "Although the eunuch is here, can the young master of the Cao family go to the palace to drag him out?" Then he blamed Cao Jinxiu: "My wife sold all the dowry fields to my sister to raise money, and my sister spent more money. I don’t feel sorry for you!” Cao Jinxiu cried, “My brother said that the matter was handled properly, so how do I know that there are such tricks?” Chu Heng said, “Didn’t my wife and I tell you? Did you hear it? ?" After asking the eunuch's name and asking He Hongwen to ask someone to find out, the eunuch's name and position are quite suitable, but the man was dying of illness and couldn't get out of bed at all. Naturally, he never left the palace, let alone it is impossible. Go to Taibailou for a drink.Cao Ning still refused to believe it, and took the butler of the He Mansion to the middle man's house, but the lock was still empty.The housekeeper Zhang Shun asked the neighbors left and right, and the neighbors all laughed: "He is not a eunuch's servant, but he only rented this house for two or three months, and he said he wanted to open a shop in the city. Something happened, so I moved away in a hurry." Cao Yu was furious and was about to report to the official, Zhang Shun said: "How can I report to the official about bribery and buying an official? And after so many days have passed, where can the yamen go to find the official?" People who miss Yang. Go home and report to your wife."

Mother He heard that she was indeed deceived, and she couldn't help feeling angry and ashamed.Brother and sister Cao Ning knelt down in front of He's mother and begged for mercy, but He's mother was speechless and just shed tears.Chu Heng was very angry, and ordered the maids to drive them back to another house, and personally gave He Mu a few needles, and He Mu cried aloud.

Chu Heng said with tears in his eyes: "Madam, don't be like this. Money is a trivial matter. Even [-] silver is not as important as my wife. And relax your mind, so you can take care of yourself."

Mother He said: "What a crime! I... I'm sorry for Hong'er and you." She began to cry.

Chu Heng was angry and felt pitiful, so he could only comfort him repeatedly: "It's because we as children didn't pay attention that our wife was cheated by others. How can we blame my wife. Fortunately, our family doesn't wait for the rice to be cooked, and the wife doesn't want to." Take it to heart."

At this time He Hongwen came back after hearing the news, although he also felt depressed, but with his mother's appearance, he could only try to comfort him.He Mu said: "Since it's a fraud, report it to the officials and arrest it.
