Chapter 320
Qi Lizheng did not expect that Qi Shanhe had a gambling record, and his two sons knew about it but did not tell him. This made him very angry.
Facing his father's outburst, Qi Shande felt aggrieved.
"Dad, Shanhe is already over 30 years old. What doesn't he know? What doesn't he understand? No one can stop him from doing anything he wants to do. We can't stand behind him and control him, right?"
Qi Lizheng sighed deeply, "I don't want to care about him, but Shan He is the only one left in your uncle's life. If I don't care about him, how can I live up to your uncle's trust?"
Qi Baoshu did not only give birth to one son, Qi Shanhe. Qi Shanhe and Qi Dalian also had three children, but they all died of illness when they were young, and only two survived.
There was only one male among the two, and he was the only incense left by Qi Baoshu. Qi Baochang still valued the only incense left by his brother.
Qi Shanming said, "Dad, I heard that the Zhao family's gambling shop only allows cash gambling and never allows IOUs to be made on credit. Could Shanhe lie to us when he says he owes the Zhao family money?"
Qi Baochang seemed to have seen hope and said quickly, "What...you two brothers quickly go to Zhao's gambling house and ask if it is true that Shanhe owes money?
There is no truth in Mr. Xun's mouth, and if he is not kind and honest, he has no gambling money at all. It is possible that Mr. Xun is cheating on me."
Qi Shande was helpless, "Dad, what are you going to do if Shanhe really owes the gambling house fifty taels of silver?"
Qi Baochang was stunned. To be honest, he didn't know what to do.
After a long silence, Qi Lizheng chose to deceive himself, "No, Shanhe was admitted to the Tongsheng Examination at the age of ten. He is the most knowledgeable and courteous person. He would not go to a place like a gambling house. It must be Xun's nonsense."
.”
Qi Shanbao was impatient, "I'll go find cousin Shanhe. Let's ask him personally. Then we'll know!"
Qi Li was sighing, "The key is that he is not at home, and I don't know what he is doing."
Qi Shanbao said blankly, "Dad, if you want me to tell you, we shouldn't care about his family's affairs.
Whether his family really owes fifty taels or pretends to owe fifty taels, we should not care.
When my sister Dalian got married, the Sun family gave her a betrothal gift of fifty taels, which my old aunt kept in her own pocket. Later, she borrowed another twenty taels from Brother Sun's husband, for a total of seventy taels of silver.
These seventy taels would be enough for an ordinary family to spend a lifetime. If they really lost their money in just one year, then I wish they had done it themselves.
Our family can’t help with fifty taels!”
As soon as Qi Shanbao finished speaking, Qi Shande and Qi Shanming immediately agreed, "Dad, my brother is right, our family cannot block fifty taels of holes for them."
"Yes, I don't agree either. The money our family has worked so hard to save cannot be cheap to Shan He."
His family has never been divided. The money they earn and the harvest from the fields are all in the hands of his father. If his father is confused and takes out the money to save Qi Shanhe, then they
Absolutely not agree to that.
For example, if the money from the father's family was used to marry Shanbao, they would have no problem with it, but if the money was cheap to Qi Shanhe, they would definitely not do it.
Qi Lizheng felt that his head hurt even more.
"go home!"
Yu Changhe is still listening, he can't afford to lose this person!
Qi Shanbao stepped forward, "Dad, I will carry you!"
He also felt that it was not appropriate to discuss this matter in the Yu family.
"No, I can walk by myself!" Qi Lizheng waved away the hand stretched out by his youngest son.
Qi Lizheng was very dissatisfied with the unkindness of each of his three sons.
These cousins are also brothers, aren't they? Do they really want to die without saving their lives?
Even if he couldn't come up with fifty taels of silver, why not half of it? But looking at his three sons, he looked like he couldn't even think of a penny.
Qilizheng felt resentful in his heart.
Why doesn't his son have brotherly love? Brothers should be the closest people in the world.
When they were children, the three of them were very friendly and had a good relationship. How did it change? When did it start to change?
Qi Li was worried and thanked Yu Changhe and said goodbye.
Qi Li didn't want Qi Shanbao to carry it, but as soon as he walked out of the Yu family's house, he was supported by his three sons. He lifted his feet off the ground and was carried home. He was so angry that he scolded him all the way.
After Qi Li was leaving, Mrs. Sun in the back room said worriedly to Yu Xiaolian, "Sorry, Qi Shanhe owes so much money outside, so Mr. Xun will definitely try to blame your uncle.
Your aunt is going to give birth in a few days, and Mrs. Xun is such a mess, I feel so panicked, I always feel like something big is going to happen."
Yu Xiaolian comforted Mrs. Sun softly and said, "Mom, don't worry, it's only about fifty taels of silver. What big trouble can happen?"
"Lian'er, what do you mean... don't you want your uncle to return the fifty taels for Qi Shanhe?" Although fifty taels is nothing to his family,
But if she really paid back fifty taels for Qi Shanhe, Mrs. Sun felt that she felt aggrieved.
Moreover, according to the mother-son style of Xunshi and Qi Shanhe, once they get this started, they will definitely do it again.
Yu Changhe also opened the curtain and walked into the back room, "What does the debt he owes Hu Hua outside have to do with our family? I'll go tell Fengshou later and ask him to take good care of the family's money and never take advantage of that shameless gambler.
.”
Yu Changhe really hates people who go to casinos to gamble. These people don't know what they are thinking in their minds. They always want to get something for nothing and get rich overnight. But who knows, can casinos do business at a loss?
Yu Xiaolian chuckled, "Father, mother, actually Qi Shanhe doesn't have any money from the Zhao Family Gambling House. Not only did he not lose fifty taels, he also won fifty taels from the gambling house!"
"What?" Yu Changhe and Sun were extremely surprised.
Yu Xiaolian smiled mischievously, and then told her what she knew, "Qi Shanhe has a girl he likes in Qianse Building, and that girl is pregnant with Qi Shanhe's child.
Of course, I don't know whether this child is Qi Shanhe's, but Qi Shanhe wholeheartedly believes that this child is his.
Qi Shanhe wanted to redeem the girl's life, but he didn't have enough money. He had to spend one hundred and twenty taels of silver to redeem the girl.
Qi Shanhe's original money plus the money he won at the gambling house totaled nearly one hundred taels. If he didn't have enough money, he would naturally have other ideas."
"So, Mrs. Xun was also deceived by her son?" Mrs. Sun frowned. What was this? It simply overturned her three views.
Yu Xiaolian nodded, "I think so."
"Then how did you know about this?" Yu Changhe asked.
Yu Xiaolian replied, "Headguard Zhao told me something interesting a few days ago."
Qianselou and the gambling house are both run by Zhao Zhiqun's fourth brother, Zhao Zhixin, which is why Qi Shanhe was able to reach an agreement with the people in the Zhao Family Gambling House to deceive the Xun family together.
