2237 Blood-Sucking Worm
Tan Yushu read it with relish. After a while, the tea in the cup was ready several times, and it was still not enough. He glanced at Gu Xiaowan and signaled her to continue.
The performance of this play is much better than the plays of the troupe. They babbled and sang, and couldn't hear what they sang, but the scene in front of them was really good-looking!
Seeing that she was interested, Gu Xiaowan smiled at her, and then said: "My money, Aunt Liang, you also knew last time, I said I would give it to you, but now you have crossed paths with this group of people , if those people know my identity, what will they do if they come to blackmail you?"
"No, no, as long as they take the money, they will definitely leave. They will definitely not come to blackmail us again. Don't worry, you are a princess. They are just a bunch of rogues. They must not dare to come Blackmail you!" Mrs. Liang promised, patted her chest.
"How much do you owe them?" Gu Xiaowan asked.
Mrs. Liang thought that Gu Xiaowan was moved by her words, so she hurriedly said the figure she had already planned: "I owe seven thousand taels, although it is a bit much, but... the money in this gambling house is only a few hundred taels. , Now that we have rolled so far, we owe more in the future, so we are also desperate!"
Gu Xiaowan was a little embarrassed when she heard this: "So much... I promised that the money would be for you, but I never said that I would pay off the debt to your son!"
Mrs. Liang and Liang Shouyi looked at each other, and then hurriedly said, "Xiao Wan, you gave us the money, and we use it to pay off the debt. Isn't it the same?"
"That must be different!" Gu Xiaowan sat upright, with a serious face: "I gave you the money, but you still owe me a favor, but if the money is in your hands, before you warm it up, you will give it to someone else. Favor, do you still remember?"
"Of course, of course, of course I remember! My son is also a member of my family. For your great kindness, I will be a cow and a horse in my next life, and I will repay your kindness!" Mrs. Liang's face was moved.
As long as you give the money, it's fine. After taking the money, the favor is just a matter of lip service. She is Princess Anping, how can she really ask them to return the favor.
"Since this is the case, there must be evidence for empty words!" Gu Xiaowan said: "I can give you the money, but you have to give an explanation!"
Gu Fangxi was startled, and hurriedly shouted: "Xiao Wan..."
Gu Xiaowan glanced at her and smiled, her eyes were full of joy that she was determined to get. Although Gu Fangxi didn't know what she was going to do next, but seeing her proud look, Gu Fangxi had no choice but to hold back her suspicions and wait to see. What will she do next!
"What do you say? Say it, say it, we will definitely do it!" Liang Shouyi was about to jump up for joy.
"Why don't you just write a note, and I don't want you to write too much. I voluntarily gave you five thousand taels of silver, and the extra two thousand, or you can write a note of two thousand. You see How about it?"
Gu Xiaowan agreed to give seven thousand taels.
The Liang family was so overjoyed that they didn't see the calculating smile on the corner of Gu Xiaowan's mouth at all, and hurriedly agreed in unison: "Okay!"
Gu Fangxi frowned, she was slapped by Mrs. Liang when she came just now, Gu Xiaowan told her not to be impulsive, now Gu Xiaowan actually wants to give them seven thousand taels of silver, how is this possible?
She glared at Gu Xiaowan, and saw that Gu Xiaowan also looked back at her, her beautiful and enchanting eyes blinked lightly, Gu Fangxi was overjoyed, and hurriedly sat down.
Liang Shouyi also knew how to write in the Liang family. He wrote an IOU and showed it to Gu Xiaowan: "How about it?"
Gu Xiaowan looked at it and found that it was exactly in line with her thoughts, so she nodded: "It's okay, the meaning is probably this!"
Seeing that Gu Xiaowan accepted the IOU, the Liang family members looked at her excitedly with their eyes open, waiting for her to take the silver, oh, no, seven thousand taels, it should be a bank note.
They couldn't handle seven thousand taels of silver.
After finishing the silver business, let's talk about the shop. Liang Shouyi coughed twice, just about to say something.
Gu Xiaowan asked kindly: "You owe seven thousand taels of gambling debt to others. After you pay it off, how will you live?"
Liang Shouyi's eyes lit up and he was overjoyed. Without even saying anything, Gu Xiaowan brought it up by herself, and it really touched his heart.
Mrs. Liang was also overjoyed. Just as she was about to say something, she heard Gu Xiaowan continue to say: "You came to me three days ago, but I told you that you spent all of the one thousand taels of silver within a few days. May I ask, what do you eat on weekdays? It costs so much money, as you said just now, the old ones are old, the young ones are few, and there is no labor force. I want to ask you, what will you rely on for your livelihood in the future?"
Mrs. Liang was suffocated by Gu Xiaowan's words. She didn't expect Gu Xiaowan to ask such a question. When she was about to think about how to answer, she heard Liang Dabao anxiously said: "Didn't you say that you are going to give it to me?" Does my shop let me be the shopkeeper? When I become the shopkeeper in the future, I will naturally have money!"
Gu Xiaowan laughed back angrily, looked at the person sitting beside her, a smile appeared on her face, and raised her eyebrows at Tan Yushu, as if to say if she saw it, the blood-sucking worm is here!
Liang Shouyi felt that something was wrong when he saw his grandson talking like this, but after all, he had already said it, and it would be futile to ask any more questions. Besides, Gu Xiaowan himself had promised this, so he said, "Xiaowan, don't blame Dabao for being outspoken. It was you who promised to give us the shop last time, don't worry, Dabao is an honest boy, and I will help him by the side, and I will definitely manage your shop well!"
Gu Xiaowan used to think that Sun Xi'e and Gu Xintao, the elders of the Gu family, were thick-skinned, but she didn't expect to see the Liang family now, and now she understands that every mountain is as tall as a mountain, and there are strong hands among the strong.
She looked helplessly at these three people who took her as a victim, and sighed while touching her forehead.
Mrs. Liang thought that Gu Xiaowan was worried about their livelihood, so she hurriedly said, "Xiaowan, don't worry, we trouble you this time, and we will definitely not trouble you again in the future!"
