Looking at the coffin in the hall, the faces of the Hua family felt as if they had eaten shit. However, Hua Yanxi opposite had an expression that said the family should not be too grateful for the gift.
"Hua Yanxi, carry this thing out! We don't need it," Hua Shao scolded.
"Is Father angry that I only prepared this gift for Grandma?" Hua Yanxi raised her eyebrows and said, "If Father needs it, I can't..."
"Shut up!" Hua Shao yelled angrily. He was in his prime now, could he use such a thing?
Before Hua Yanxi could speak, there was a sound of footsteps behind her.
The people from Shuntian Mansion have already entered directly.
"I heard that someone here has defrauded people and refused to repay them. Who is so bold and dares to act recklessly at the feet of the Emperor?"
"Hua Yanxi, you actually reported yourself to the police! Are you crazy? This is such a small thing!"
Hua Yanxi spread her hands: "It's hard for an upright official to take care of household chores. What's more, I'm a prostitute, so I naturally need our parents to help me. What if I go too far and hurt my family?"
Hua Shao felt angry when he saw her taking it for granted.
The person who came was wearing official uniform and looked young, only about thirty years old, but his aura was something that should not be underestimated.
"May I ask what your name is? The richest man in Luoyang, Hua Shao, is the father-in-law of the seventh prince." Hua Shao said with cupped hands, his tone was neither arrogant nor arrogant, but he had an inexplicable sense of superiority.
It seems that if you say, you know, I am a member of the royal family, officials like you should be more alert. At the same time, it also implies to the other party that he is very rich.
However, the man seemed not to have heard anything and only said: "I am the Yin of Shuntian Prefecture, the official you reported to me?"
"Sir, this is the official I reported to." Hua Yanxi stood up and handed an account book to the man: "This is proof. These shops under my name were all left to me by my biological mother before she passed away. Now I have married
Man, the dowry must be brought into the husband's family, and such a large sum must be recovered."
The man nodded: "Yes, that's true. Isn't it already clear? Just make up the money, so there's no need for me to come forward."
Hua Yanxi sighed: "The difficulty is that this bill was owed by my father's concubine and grandmother on credit. I discussed it with them a few days ago, but until now they have not been able to pay the full amount.
, we can only ask Dare to come forward."
Shuntian Prefecture Yin nodded: "According to the law, after you get married, the dowry has nothing to do with it. A family is divided into two families. If there is a debt dispute, it will be based on the signature. Do you have evidence to prove that these are yours?"
Hua Yanxi nodded and handed the land deed and other things in front of her.
Shuntian Fuyin looked at it carefully and nodded: "Not bad."
Then he looked at Hua Shao and others: "So, you are unwilling to repay? Then take it to the government office..."
The man originally wanted to take it to the government office for detailed examination, but Hua Shao suddenly panicked.
"Sir, wait, we will pay back, we will pay back." The man said, then turned to look at Hua Yanxi: "I will pay back the money your Aunt Qing and your grandmother owe them, but now I don't have that much money.
It’s better to…”
Before Hua Shao could finish speaking, Hua Yanxi nodded immediately: "Okay, I agree. Since my father wants to pay the IOU, there is nothing wrong with him. We daughters can't be too heartless."
Hua Shao: He just wanted to delay it, and didn’t want to write any IOU at all.
Hua Yanxi had already taken out all the prepared IOUs: "I have prepared all of these. Father only needs to sign here and press his fingerprints. After that, I only need adults to help me take it and put a big seal on it."
Hua Shao took the IOU in his hand. After seeing the content on it, his face changed and he said in disbelief: "How can this be done!"
All debts must be collected within fifteen days, otherwise the creditor has the right to choose to offset any equal amount of property rights in the name of the debtor.
How can that be done? He got those things with great difficulty.
When the money is gone, it is gone. As long as there are chickens, eggs will be laid sooner or later. But if even the chickens are taken away, how much will be lost?
Hua Yanxi said, "What are you afraid of? This little money doesn't even take half a month. According to the Hua family's financial resources, it can be collected easily."
Hua Shao thought so, but the tip of his heart was still dripping with blood.
This amount of money is not a small amount. What did these losers get? Why is it so expensive?
Seeing that Hua Shao still didn't speak, Hua Yanxi said: "If father feels embarrassed, then we should go to Shuntian Mansion to discuss it again. Anyway, I have more time."
"No!" Hua Shao said immediately.
If this matter spreads out, and the daughter will sue her biological father and his family to the government, then the Hua family will lose all face.
"I'll sign!" Hua Shao gritted his teeth and signed.
Hua Yanxi put away the IOU and looked at the governor of Jingzhao: "Thank you for your hard work, I have to go back and stamp the official seal."
Shuntian Fuyin nodded: "In that case, let's go."
Seeing Hua Yanxi and Jingzhao Fuyin leading their people away, Hua Shao sat down with a sigh of relief.
"Master, how can you agree to her? This money is your hard-earned money, how can you give it to her?" Aunt Qing said angrily.
"You still have the nerve to say it! Who owes all this money!" Hua Shao said angrily.
Aunt Qing immediately did not dare to speak.
Instead, Mrs. Hua spoke: "Shao'er."
Hua Shao still had some respect for his own mother, so he responded when he heard the words.
"Hua Yanxi has clearly come prepared. We can't let her lead us away."
"I know it too, but what if I don't sign it? Is it possible that I really have to go to the government office to be embarrassed?" Hua Shao said impatiently.
Mrs. Hua squinted her eyes: "If Hua Yanxi died suddenly, and those shops are the property of the Hua family, it would be natural for us to take our own things, so what money would be used?"
Hua Shao's heart trembled and he looked at his mother: "Mom, what do you mean?"
"It's a good thing that such an unruly thing is gone, what do you think?"
"My son understands." Hua Shao nodded with a heartbroken heart.
At this moment, outside the door, Hua Yanxi looked at the man in front of her with a smile: "Thank you very much for this, second uncle."
The person in front of him was suddenly Hua Yanxi's third uncle and the third son of the Yang family, Yang Lu.
The man who looked serious at the beginning now showed a smile when he was facing Hua Yanxi alone: "My uncle is very happy that Xi'er can think of asking me for help. My uncle will handle the rest of the matter until the big seal is sealed.
I will deliver it to you personally, and you can come to your uncle if you need anything in the future."
After all, Hua Shao was a businessman. Although he had good relations with many officials, he did not understand the laws of Dachu.
The governor of Jingzhao will not go to work personally. He usually sends a few government officials to bring the people involved for questioning. It will not be so easy.
What happened today was obviously a show deliberately staged by Hua Yanxi to scare Hua Shao, in order to get this IOU from Hua Shao.
