Chen's face was all red, and he continued: "It's time to pay it back, no, just wait until you sell the millet to pay off the debt."

"I'll ask my mother-in-law in a moment."

Aunt Sun smiled, "Then I'll wait for your letter."

Chen shi turned around and went to the upper room. When he entered the room, Zhou shi just covered the camphor wood box.

Seeing Mrs. Chen come in, she quickly locked the box and turned to look at Mrs. Chen in dissatisfaction, "What are you doing here?"

Chen shi lowered his head, "Mother knows, before Saburo went to Fucheng to take an exam, he also borrowed ten taels of silver from Zhang Lizheng's house next door."

"Auntie Sun from the Zheng family just asked me when the money will be returned, saying that her family plans to marry a daughter-in-law and wait for the money to be used."

Zhou Shi pulled his face down as soon as he heard it, "I have no money, don't look for me."

Chen Shi was stunned, "Mother, how can you not have money, didn't you just sell the millet?"

Zhou shi lowered his eyelids, "Haha, I already said that, I will keep the money from selling millet this year, and give me and your father longevity materials."

"What, you want to rob even this money?"

Chen's face flushed, "Mother, it's not that I want to rob it. I borrowed money from others, and I have to pay it back."

Zhou Shi snorted, "I made the money?"

"I asked you to borrow it?"

"I didn't use your money, so I don't care about paying it back."

Chen Shi was about to cry, "My mother said at the time that the family only had 10 taels of silver, and Saburo was not enough, so I went to Aunt Sun to borrow it. At that time, my father agreed, and you know it, mother."

Zhou shi lowered her eyes, "It's none of my business anyway." She waved her hand, as if chasing flies, "Let's walk around, don't get in the way here."

Chen shi stood there for a while, his face turned red and white, and he left the room after a while.

Gu Yunjiao was sitting by the window, looking at the pulse case brought from her home, when she saw Mrs. Chen walking outside with tears in her eyes.

She hurriedly put down her book and walked to the next room, where she saw Mrs. Chen sitting alone at the table, weeping.

Gu Yunjiao walked over and said softly, "Mother, what's the matter?"

Chen Shi was angry, anxious and aggrieved, and said the whole thing, "My dowry is all gone, and now there is no money to give to others!"

She wiped the corners of her eyes, "I can see it through, they are reluctant to spend money on Saburo, and they are waiting for Saburo to become an official in the future."

Chen Shi fiercely "bah", "How can there be such a beautiful thing in the world!"

Gu Yunjiao thought for a while, she had valuable musk deer antler ginseng or something in her medicine store, just take out a little and exchange it for some money, but she shouldn't take this money, and she won't take it either.

She said softly: "Mother, why don't you go to the old man to talk about it, the old man is still sensible."

Anyway, he is stronger than Zhou.

Chen Shi nodded, "I'm looking for the old man."

"This family is not divided, and the six buckets of rice that Saburo distributes every month are also handed over to the family, and the money owed should be paid by the public. "

Chen patted Gu Yunjiao's hand, with relief in his eyes, "Sanlang went to study in the county, luckily I still have you at home, and I have someone to discuss with me in case of trouble."

Chen shi came out of the room and walked around, but he didn't see Mr. Jiang, so he had to keep the matter in his heart.

When it was time for dinner, Mr. Jiang came back.

After taking a few bites, Mrs. Chen couldn't hold back anymore, and said loudly, "Father, today Aunt Sun urged our family to return the money, which is the 10 taels of silver that Saburo borrowed from Fucheng to catch the exam. You said at the time that you couldn't look down on it Lizheng, let me go to Aunt Sun and tell me that I am a woman so I can talk."

The house was quiet.
