Chapter 19: Losing his wife and losing his troops (Part 2)
When he deceived Lu Shaoqing, he really didn’t think much about it, he just thought it was fun.
If he had known that he could cause so many troubles later, he would never have done this.
To put it bluntly, Su Mingjue is not short of the five taels of silver.
Although Old Man Su was afraid that his habit of being arrogant and licentious at such a young age would limit his monthly expenses, he couldn't help but please him. Old Mrs. Su and Mrs. Su often subsidized him privately from time to time, and Su Mingjue had a lot of money on him.
It can only be said that his love of playing tricks on others hurt him.
Su Mingjue had no choice but to add more money to the money in his hand and took out another five taels of silver from the money bag. "It was wrong of me to lie to your brother. I am willing to repay you double."
Lu Shaoyu looked at the young man in front of him and made a gesture . Although it was low, there was still a hint of reluctance in his eyes. He immediately thought about it and did not reach out to take it.
As a last resort, Su Mingjue had no choice but to double the money he had.
"Twenty taels."
Lu Shaoqing still did not express his position, looking at the silver in the young man's hand without raising his eyes.
Su Mingjue closed his eyes tightly and took a deep breath. Only when you are willing to give up can you gain something. He made up his mind and put the entire money bag in his hand, "This is all my silver, I will give it to your brother to apologize. "
Lu Shaoyu looked at the young man's heartbroken expression and smiled, reaching out to take the bag of fifty taels of silver. "Since you have such regret, I will accept it,"
Su Mingjue said in her heart . There was a burst of cursing: You really got an advantage and acted like a good boy!
Seeing him taking the silver, Su Mingjue knew that this only meant that Lu Shaoyu would not pursue the matter, and the matter on Lu Shaoqing's side was still unresolved.
He pondered deeply and said tentatively: "What about Lu Shaoqing?"
Lu Shaoyu touched the fine Su Xiuxiu money bag in his hand and said calmly: "You can resolve the matter between you and him on your own."
Su Mingjue said on the spot. I want to curse: If I dare to give away this money for free, I really lose my wife and lose my troops.
Lu Shaoqing turned Yipinju upside down, but he still couldn't find Su Mingjue, and he was half-hearted.
This liar is really cunning, letting him escape under his nose again!
Seeing that it is getting late, if he is late, his brother should criticize him again.
He waved his sleeves, paused his search, and walked sullenly to the private room where the two had arranged to have dinner.
As soon as he opened the door, he heard voices inside. Without thinking about it, Lu Shaoqing raised his legs and walked inside and said, "Brother, do you have any guests again?"
As the minister of Dali Temple, there are countless people who visit him every day. Lu Shaoqing had seen many people asking Lu Shaoyu to do business, so he naturally got used to it.
At this moment, he heard some conversations between his brother and others, and he thought it was someone else coming.
Su Mingjue had just let go of her hanging heart, but before she could rest, she heard Lu Shaoqing's voice.
He instantly felt his heart in his throat again. He definitely didn't look at the almanac when he went out today. This bad luck happened one after another.
Because Lu Shaoyu had just been appeased with money, Su Mingjue subconsciously looked at Lu Shaoyu.
Lu Shaoyu took the silver he had just received back into his arms without speaking, looking back at Su Mingjue with a smile on his face.
Su Mingjue's heart felt even more cold at this moment. Who is this person?
He didn't do anything even after receiving the money, but he still couldn't talk about him.
Su Mingjue's mind was racing, thinking about how she would deal with Lu Shaoqing when she saw him later.
This private room is not big, and there is no way to hide anymore. Since the matter has reached this point, it is better to solve it at once to avoid long nights and dreams.
Lu Shaoyu looked motionless on the surface, but in fact he was looking at Su Mingjue standing aside from the corner of his eye.
He was slightly surprised to see him standing aside without moving, but when he glanced at him, he saw his eyes darting around, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
Lu Shaoyu looked at Lu Shaoqing who was pushing the door open, poured a cup of tea and handed it over. He said with a hint of scolding in his concerned tone: "I told you to behave well at all times, how can it be inappropriate to act recklessly?"
Lu Shaoqing continued He took a sip from the teacup and said, "Brother, I'm telling you, I met the liar I told you about last time. I was just..."
Before he could finish his words, Su Mingjue had a smile on his face. Suddenly appeared in front of Lu Shaoqing, "Second Young Master Lu, are you talking about me?"
Lu Shaoqing spurted out the tea in his mouth before he could swallow it completely. He looked at Su Mingjue who suddenly appeared in front of him with a look of astonishment, and asked Lu Shaoqing in surprise. Shaoyu asked: "Why is he here?"
Just as Lu Shaoyu was about to speak, Su Mingjue quickly said, "That's it. After I lied to you that day, I couldn't sleep or eat well. It happened that I heard that your brother was next door. I came here to apologize." No
matter how I heard this, I felt something was wrong. Lu Shaoqing looked at Lu Shaoyu suspiciously: "Brother, is what he said true?"
Lu Shaoyu just wanted to say a few words of defense . , Unexpectedly, Su Mingjue spoke before him again, "Of course it's true. You see, I took out fifty taels as a sincere apology."
"How many fifty taels!" Lu Shaoqing's eyes rolled when he heard this number. His eyes almost popped out, "Isn't it five taels of silver? Brother, you are too evil!"
It's not like Lu Shaoqing didn't realize that when a normal person returns the silver taels, it will be ten times the normal price.
Su Mingjue defrauded him of money, but she wouldn't foolishly give him back so much. The only one who could make him do this was his black-hearted brother.
Lu Shaoyu was watching with interest how Su Mingjue resolved the conflict with Lu Shaoqing, but unexpectedly, looking at his silly brother, he started to favor outsiders.
He suddenly felt that the excitement was not so good. He calmed down his expression slightly, took out the fifty taels of silver he had just received from his arms, and said with a smile on his lips: "Young Master Su did this on his own accord. He said that he had lied to you. Give more, and your conscience will be better, Mr. Su, am I right?"
Su Mingjue gritted her molar teeth and said cooperatively: "Yes, that's the case, I think it would be better to give you more."
Seeing Su Mingjue's pious attitude, Lu Shaoqing also agreed. I believed what he said, "Okay! Since you apologize to me so sincerely, I will accept it." Su Mingjue looked at Lu Shaoqing with a smile: " Thank
you very much, Mr. Lu, for your magnanimity."
The scene was a bit awkward. Su Mingjue walked up to Lu Shaoqing and said something in his ear: "As for the crickets, you can choose the long and narrow ones. The drier ones will be more aggressive."
After hearing this, Lu Shaoqing suddenly understood and nodded. , "It turns out you really understand cricket a bit."
Su Mingjue smiled lightly. Seeing that the relationship between the two had softened a lot in front of Lu Shaoyu, he bowed his hands and said, "I still have some things at home, so I won't delay the two of you. It's a family affair."
After Lu Shaoqing was comforted by Su Mingjue, he didn't embarrass him anymore and nodded: "Then you go back!"
Lu Shaoyu didn't say anything after hearing this. Su Mingjue knew that he was in trouble. It passed smoothly.
Just as he took a few steps, Lu Shaoyu's lazy voice came from his ears: "Young Master Su, it doesn't matter if you go back, but before you leave, you must remember your promise to lend me a private room."
Su Mingjue: " ......."
Su Mingjue held back a breath and said: "Of course, of course."
He didn't even mention fifty taels of his own food, but he still wanted to give him a meal. He was really a cunning fox!
Today he really lost his wife and lost his army. No, it was a company. The children were all folded in. Not only did they lose fifty taels, but they also lost a meal.
