Ma Yuan said: "Master Beiming, you can't say that. I think everyone knows the temper of Uncle Beiming. Whether he owes money or not, to be honest, it has something to do with him, and you Beiming."
It’s related to the family, let me put it bluntly, if you don’t pay back the money, it’s not impossible. My fourth brother’s betrothal gift to the Hua family, I hope the Beiming family will take care of everything.”
An elder said sternly: "Huh, after talking for a long time, you just want a betrothal gift, and there is no way!"
Ma Yuan was not angry, and spread his hands and said: "It seems that everyone means this, that's fine, then I will make it public about the money owed by Uncle Beiming!"
An elder stepped forward in two steps, tore the IOU from Bei Mingzheng's hand, laughed and said: "Now that there is no IOU, how can you make it public?"
Ma Yuan laughed and said, "Elder, put the IOU together and see what I wrote on it. You people, tusk tusk..." After that, Ma Yuan turned to leave.
"Wait a minute!" Bei Mingzheng took a breath and asked, "You just said that you just need to prepare some betrothal gifts for Ma Xiaoquan and let the matter of owing money go away?"
"Of course!"
"Okay, how much money do you owe on that day, we will prepare as much as the betrothal gift."
Ma Yuan chuckled and said: "Why did the Beiming family master suddenly become so polite and didn't ask, are we lying to you?"
Bei Mingzheng laughed: "What kind of temperament does Tian'er have? Of course we know that even if he doesn't owe money, I will clear this debt for him."
"Of course that's good. With the words of the head of the family, we can rest assured! Let's say goodbye then!" Ma Yuan bowed his hands to Bei Mingzheng, turned around and left.
...
Shortly after Ma Yuan left, several elders asked Bei Mingzheng in confusion why he agreed.
Bei Mingzheng smiled and said: "Ma Xiaoquan came to me earlier and asked me for a betrothal gift. I didn't agree. Do you know why? Because if I agreed, he would think that my Bei Ming family is a soft persimmon, and Tian'er is gambling.
Losing twenty thousand taels is indeed such a thing."
An elder sighed and said: "The head of the family and Bei Mingtian are actually of the same generation, but the age difference is too big, so the head of the family calls Bei Mingtian Tian'er. However, Bei Mingtian is really too much. He loves gambling and always gambles."
When can you change your attitude of losing everything?"
Another elder said: "Anyway, there is no Bei Mingtian among the candidates for the head of the family. But what I don't quite understand is why, head of the family, you want to save Bei Mingtian? Haven't we already eliminated the Bei Mingqing lineage?
"
Bei Mingzheng laughed and said: "Although the second uncle's lineage has been excluded by me, the people are there and the friendship is there. Besides, the second uncle still thinks about the glory of the family. Just because he has excluded the second uncle, he treats me
I'm very dissatisfied, so I plan to take advantage of the opportunity to pay Tian'er the money and let my second uncle owe me a favor, so that when we make decisions in the future, my second uncle won't have any major objections."
"Oh, that's right, head of the family, you are so wise, what should we do?"
Bei Mingzheng said: "After the meeting is over, I will go to my second uncle's house and tell him about Tian'er's debt. With his temper, my second uncle will definitely be furious. At this time, I will propose to pay back the money for Tian'er at the family level."
,in this way......"
All the elders looked at each other and said in unison: "The master of the family is wise!"
...
After Ma Yuan and Ma Cheng reunited, they informed Ma Cheng of the matter they had negotiated with Bei Mingzheng. Ma Cheng also informed Ma Yuan of spreading the news that Bei Mingtian owed money. When the two brothers clapped their hands happily, Ma Xiaoquan
appeared.
Ma Yuan and Ma Cheng looked at Ma Xiaoquan in embarrassment and informed Ma Xiaoquan of what they had done without permission.
Ma Xiaoquan laughed and instead of complaining about his two brothers, he clapped his hands and praised them.
In fact, after the investigation, Ma Xiaoquan secretly lurked in the shop to check for news. Although it was already night, because the Beiming Family was rushing to prepare a batch of medicinal materials recently, the entire family and its surrounding shops were busy.
This was also the original intention behind Ma Xiaoquan’s decision to conduct random inspections.
Ma Yuan and Ma Cheng were both stunned. They looked at each other and couldn't help but feel happy in their hearts. Although the fourth son was their younger brother, they still felt inexplicably comfortable when their younger brother praised them.
Ma Yuandao: "Little fourth son, what we can do has reached the limit. The head of the Beiming family has now promised to prepare a betrothal gift for you, so I think we should stop."
Ma Xiaoquan grinned, shook his head and said: "Second brother, if you think so, Bei Mingzheng must also think so. Aren't they busy making a batch of medicinal materials recently? Let's go make trouble so that they can't make it!"
"My dear, most of these medicinal materials are valuable. Isn't it inappropriate for us to cause trouble?"
Ma Xiaoquan chuckled: "I didn't say I wanted to destroy it, I just made a little trouble. As for how to make trouble, second brother and third brother, you two just follow me. Even if you keep them in check, they can't find anything on us.
.”
Ma Yuan and Ma Cheng looked at each other and said with a smile: "You kid, you are really bad. Fortunately, you are our brother. If you were the master of another family, you would really be a headache."
"Hehe~~"
...
While the Ma brothers were planning to cause trouble, the elders' meeting of the Beiming family was also held. Late at night after the meeting, Beiming was leading people to find Beimingqing in person.
Ever since Bei Mingqing was harassed by Ma Xiaoquan, his right eyelid has been beating non-stop. It was especially obvious that night and it made him unable to sleep.
Just when Bei Mingqing was hesitating whether to have a cup of tea, Bei Mingzheng came.
There must be nothing good going on when the head of the family visits late at night. Bei Mingqing rubbed his face and walked out of the main hall to greet Bei Mingzheng.
Bei Mingzheng kept the story short and told Bei Mingqing about the money Bei Mingtian owed.
Bei Mingqing was still a little confused at first. When he heard that his son owed gambling debts, he suddenly woke up. He was so angry that he rushed into Bei Mingtian's room and grabbed Bei Mingtian who was snoring and sleeping soundly.
When Bei Mingtian reacts, he goes up and beats him up.
Bei Mingtian didn't know the reason at first, but when he was woken up, he found out that the news that he owed gambling debts had been leaked. Bei Mingtian was filled with hatred, but he had no choice but to apologize sincerely.
Bei Mingqing's face turned red. He had worked so hard for this useless son. Now, he went to the gambling shop and lost twenty thousand taels. Not to mention, Bei Mingzheng came to tell him. It's embarrassing. It's really embarrassing.
Already.
Bei Mingqing shook his head bitterly and smiled apologetically at Bei Mingzheng: "Ah Zheng, 20,000 taels is not a small amount. I wonder if the family can help Tian'er pay off this debt?"
