Chapter 281 Gold
Lu Bocheng felt uncomfortable when he looked at him. Read М
"Just as I told His Majesty, I have a son to raise. That salary is not enough for me to buy meat. Can I push the matter of raising a son to my wife?"
He is not a gigolo.
His son's surname is Lu.
Cui Sheng did not believe his words, and was obviously irritated.
And the irritation was not small.
Lu Bocheng was annoyed by his look, and his eyes were as if he wanted to strip him naked.
"Oh, please stop looking! I just can't stand the arrogance of those people. Now the messengers are ignoring me. My wife said that she has written to me several times, but I didn't receive any of them! I am now higher than them. Let's see if they dare to step on me!"
Can't kill them!
Pull them out for sparring every day, running with weights.
Lu Bocheng said half-truthfully.
Cui Sheng looked at him suspiciously.
"By the way, I heard that you have your own communication channel. Can you help me send this gold back to my wife?" Lü Bocheng was stared at by him.
"Send it all back?" Cui Sheng came back to his senses and couldn't believe it.
"Yes, send it all back. My son has a lot of money."
"What money can a three-year-old child spend?"
"Oh, you are only allowed to send people south to buy wood and prepare dowry since my daughter was born, but you are not allowed to save some for my son?"
"Yes, yes, yes. Don't you save some for yourself?"
"What do you want to save? I have a salary. Can't my dynasty afford to pay the soldiers' food and wages?"
Cui Sheng didn't know what to say. What kind of fool is this? He didn't even warm up the gold after getting it, and didn't save some for the future.
Finally, he had no choice but to call his personal soldiers to help him arrange it.
"Is it reliable?" Lü Bocheng looked at the gold and was a little worried.
This one hundred taels of gold plus what he had saved before is not a small amount.
If it is lost, he will be heartbroken.
Cui Sheng rolled his eyes at him: "Why don't you find a way to send it yourself?"
"No, no, I'm kidding."
He didn't have any channels. But maybe he would have them in the future.
He was a third-rank official, so he would have his own people in the future.
"Marshal, can I go pick people now?"
"You go." Cui Sheng waved his hand with some exhaustion.
After picking and choosing, they were all his subordinates.
Gou Wa couldn't help it and followed him out: "General, General, pick me first!"
"Okay, you'll be one of them."
Gou Wa was so happy that he jumped straight.
Lü Bocheng quickly picked out the people, and the more than 100 people who followed him to chase and suppress Wang Hao were all included in his account.
After picking good people, he immediately began to enforce military discipline.
Practice.
He wanted to train an iron army, so that others would flee when they heard that it was the army led by him, Lü Bocheng.
He had to establish his own prestige.
Maybe he could pull out a Lü family army.
He couldn't be a soldier forever, otherwise he wouldn't be able to protect his wife and son.
When Su's father led people to plant late rice on thousands of acres of fields in Renzhou's counties and towns, and the fields were green, the gold sent by Lu Bocheng also arrived in Su Qing'an's hands.
The family was stunned by so much gold.
They couldn't close their mouths.
Siyuan and Siyuan carried a heavy box back from the governor's mansion.
They thought it was something else, but when they opened it, the whole family was stunned.
"Why is there so much gold? Where did Bocheng get it? Is this real gold?"
Su's father's voice trembled, and his legs were a little weak. He had never seen so much gold before.
The moment he opened the layers of cloth, the golden light almost blinded his eyes.
"Nonsense, can your son-in-law send a box of fake things back? Is he bored?" Su's mother refuted him.
"Mom, did you close the door just now?" Su Qingliu swallowed and spoke with difficulty.
After following her sister, she had seen a lot of money, but she had never seen such a big box of gold. Don't let anyone see it.
"Yes, yes, go and see if the door is closed." Su's mother couldn't sit still when she heard it.
"I'll go and see." Qingxing jumped and ran out to see.
She ran back quickly: "Sister, it's all closed." After saying that, she lay on the box again to see. She wanted to take a bite. I heard that you can take a bite to verify the authenticity. She wanted to see if there were any teeth marks.
But she was afraid that her mother would beat her. She held back.
Su's father urged Su Qing'an, who was still stunned: "Hurry up and see what your son-in-law said in the letter."
Su Qing'an opened the letter and read it to everyone.
After listening, Su's mother clasped her hands together: "God bless you, it's great. My son-in-law has become a third-rank official. It's a blessing for our family. It's great. The ancestral tombs at home are smoking."
"If there is smoke, it will be the Lu family." Qingxing refuted her.
Su's mother glared at her: "If our ancestral tomb didn't smoke, your sister would have become an official's wife?"
It seems to be true.
Su Qing'an ignored them, picked up an ingot and turned it over to look at it. There was a mark on the bottom. This money might not be easy to spend.
"What, this gold can't be spent? Why give it to people if it can't be spent?" Su's mother was shocked again. If gold can't be spent, then why have it, just to show it for beauty?
"It's given to us to worship." Su's father said.
"Aren't you afraid of being robbed if you worship it?" Su's mother retorted.
"What should I do then?" It's so worrying.
"I'll ask the governor some other day. It should be spendable. Put it aside first. We'll talk about it when we need money." Su Qing'an said lightly.
"Yes, hide it first. Such a big box, it's not safe to hide it anywhere. I'm afraid this family can't leave without someone." Su's mother looked left and right, and she was worried about everything.
"It's okay, mother. The more careful you are, the easier it is for others to see it. The governor doesn't know what's inside, so how can others know?" Su Qing'an comforted her.
"No, someone still has to watch over the house. I'm worried."
"Dig a hole and bury it under the bed." Su's father suggested.
"Yes, bury it under the bed, and others can't find it."
Su Qing'an wanted to roll her eyes. Even if she got the gold, the family couldn't have peace.
Forget it, let them be happy.
"Mother, you and my sister take a look at the cloth. It's hot now. You can cut it and make some clothes."
"Such good material, how can I cut it to wear. I'm afraid it will be ruined when I go to the fields, and we don't go out for social activities." If I were still in Chenzhou, I could cut two pieces to wear in front of the Gu family.
Let you look down on me.
Humph.
"Isn't cloth for people to make clothes? Why are you leaving it there to collect dust?" Su Qing'an had a headache.
Su's mother thought about it and agreed.
"Well, how about giving a few pieces to the governor's wife? And then exchange them for more ordinary cotton cloth?"
What's this economical mind thinking?
But thinking that I got a lot of good things from the governor's wife, I should give back a little.
So I nodded: "Then you and my sister pick out a few pieces, and I will bring them to the governor's wife next time. You and my sister can cut the rest to make clothes for everyone. It will turn yellow if left alone, and maybe it will be infested by insects."
Such good material can also be infested by insects?
Su's mother picked it up and flipped it, her hands were light, and she didn't dare to use force.
After distributing the cloth and hiding the gold, the whole family pretended to be calm.
But Su's mother never left home too far. After being out for half a day, she was thinking about going home.
This made Su Qingmei laugh and cry.
