The third elder brother smiled happily and stopped asking further questions.
Come to think of it, everyone else has one hundred thousand, but I have an extra fifty thousand taels.
A sum of money, two benefits, no loss this time.
The fifth elder brother realized it later and said in surprise: "Don't those silvers make up for the shortfall?"
Brother Jiu shook his head and said: "My younger brother is not a fool, how can he make a loss by doing so?"
Having said this, he looked at the fifth elder brother and said: "Fifth elder brother, you should think more carefully when encountering problems in the future. Don't be fooled by others. Even if the younger brother is confused for a moment, isn't there still a younger brother, Fujin, who can look after his younger brother?"
To cause such a big loss?"
The fifth elder brother couldn't help it, slapped him and said: "I'm not stupid! It's all you who fooled people, it looks like it's true!"
If you care about yourself, you will be fooled.
The results of it?
Even if you get a good deal and behave well, who is the elder brother and who is the younger brother?
Brother Ninth rubbed his shoulders and hummed softly: "Okay, okay, if you hit me again, you will be vindictive! One slap from the eldest brother, another slap from the fifth brother. The world is different. Now it is grandpa who is in debt, so he has to be coaxed!"
"
The seventh elder brother was nearby, glanced at him, and said, "Who are you going to be the master of?"
Brother Jiu hurriedly waved his hands and said: "Mistake, mistake, it's the uncle who owes the debt!"
The eighth elder brother was nearby, his face flushed.
That "good people are rewarded" is really weird.
You know, he hesitated at first.
It was only after asking around to find out the approximate number of brothers that he tried his best.
He is also following the crowd, he is afraid of being criticized for being stingy, and he also wants to use this to ease his relationship with Brother Jiu.
Almost, you will show your cowardice and lose your ugliness...
Lao Jiu, is this intentional?
How can the human heart withstand temptation? Will he do the same to Lao Shi?
Never!
Seeing everyone laughing and scolding, Brother Ba felt that everyone was drifting away...

After the guests left, Jiu Age came back drooping.
Shu Shu is leaning.
For most of the day, I spent a lot of time with guests. After all, I was not as comfortable as usual, and I sat upright.
Brother Jiu saw this and said, "I'll help you rub it?"
Shu Shu didn't dare to let him move. He pointed at his shoulders and said, "Then please rub my shoulders. They are sore from sitting all the time."
Brother Jiu sat behind her and stretched out his hand. While rubbing it, he said angrily: "I never thought that the third child would also act like an adulterer. I was wrong..."
Shu Shu turned around, looked at him and said, "What's wrong?"
Brother Jiu hummed and said: "The third child is not like the third child. He laughed so hard today and he didn't seem surprised about my fund-raising. He should have guessed it a long time ago..."
He was also a hindsight.
Let the third child take advantage!
It's not as good as Old Fourteen, who saw through the truth and told the truth, and took the money himself.
This third child saw it clearly, but he still pretended to say things that would change the story but not change the story, which made me feel quite sour at the time.
Shu Shu smiled and said: "I don't care about my deeds, I only care about the good... I just respect the temper of the third brother and the third sister-in-law..."
Brother Jiu nodded and said: "Okay, who is the elder brother? I can't always worry about dealing with him!"
After chatting, he became worried about Shu Shu and regretted: "The day we chose to treat guests should not be consecutive. We should have a day off."
Shu Shu said: "There will be no one else tomorrow..."
There are only two tables in total, which is similar to a family dinner.
Brother Jiu was thinking about tomorrow's guests, with a look of displeasure on his face, and said: "Auntie, don't be too respectful, so as not to kick your nose and face."
This is talking about Jin, the eldest wife of the Guo Luo Luo family.
To be honest, Brother Jiu is not familiar with the relatives in Guo Luoluo's family, and he doesn't take them too seriously, but the ones he dislikes the most are his uncle Daobao and his wife Jin.
Because these two people are different from others, they are Yi Fei's brother and sister-in-law, and they have borrowed the most money. They should have taken a clear stand on the side of Yi Fei's mother and son; but last year in Shengjing, the couple pretended to be deaf.
Dumb, have fun with the rest of the Guo Luoluo family.
Later, Brother Jiu and Shu Shu lost their temper and broke up with Guo Luoluo's family. Only then did the two of them behave and were on the same side.
Shu Shu said: "After all, we are relatives, and we always have to take care of my queen's face."
As for whether you know it or not?
Shu Shu was not worried.
Kim's natal family is gone, but her husband is already the fourth-grade chief of ceremonies, and he is still young and powerful.
If she dares to offend her relatives, Daobao will not spare her.
The next day, the Ninth Prince's Mansion continued to entertain guests.
From Shu Shu's family, Qi Xi, his wife and Zhu Liang came.
At Shu Shu's aunt's house, Tai Fujin and his cousin Prince Kang came.
From Brother Jiu's uncle's house, Daobao, his wife and Gui Dan came.
No one else was invited.
In fact, there are in-laws one after another. If we invite them all, I don’t know how many tables will be set.
Brother Jiu doesn't like to socialize with the clan, and Shu Shu doesn't like to socialize with his in-laws either.
She doesn't want her life to be bogged down in relationships.
If you owe someone a favor in the past, find an opportunity to repay it. You don’t have to be so close in your daily life.
So this time we are treating our guests to close relatives.
Logically speaking, Shu Shu's uncle's family should also be added.
The Eight Banners value in-laws, and the uncle's family, the aunt's family, and the aunt's family are all the most respected.
But since Fusong broke off the engagement, Fusong's stepmother made some unpleasant remarks, and Shu Shu didn't send any posts at all.
She didn't care about others saying that she was snobbish and didn't recognize her poor relatives. Anyway, with Fusong here, she could represent her uncle's family.
Otherwise, I would have to deal with Fusong's stepmother. After listening to her nagging, I would not have the patience to relieve her worries.
Although they are close relatives, men and women are different, so they have separate front and back yards.
Brother Jiu was entertaining the male guests in the living room in the front yard, while Shu Shu and Mrs. Bo were entertaining the female guests in the main room.
They were all close relatives and elders, and there were no others, so they all sat in the east room.
Shu Shu was pregnant, and her elders knew about it, and they acted like a big baby and wouldn't let her feet touch the ground.
Either touching or hugging her, just like a baby.
Shu Shu was tired for most of yesterday, and she was happy to enjoy the kindness of her elders today.
There is a great-aunt, and it's not her turn to speak.
Not to mention that Shu Shu's identity was not something she could tell. Even if she wanted to rely on her old age to show off, she would not be able to offend Tai Fujin and the two imperial wives next to her.
Mrs. Jin was very honest and did not get pricked during the whole process.
Tai Fujin fumbled with Shu Shu, and the aunt and nephew couldn't get enough of each other: "You're such a heartless kid, you'll have fun after you get married, and your aunt will be forgotten!"
Shu Shu honestly admitted her mistake and said: "When I was at home in the early years, I never went out. I was also curious about the outside world and wanted to see the world. After one and a half years of marriage and half a year of staying outside, my heart has really gone crazy. A few days ago, I talked to
Master Jiu said that Jiangnan is good, the flowers are bright and the willows are green in winter..."
Tai Fujin glanced at her waist and said, "My feet will be sticky from now on, and I won't be able to keep my hands off her for three or four years."
Shu Shu hugged Tai Fujin's arm, lowered her head, and sighed: "It's a shame to be a woman. It would be better if a man gave birth to a child sometime."
A child's words made everyone laugh.
Tai Fujin smiled and said: "When I was a child, I gave my cousin some red dots and a small flower on his head, but I really can't imagine what it would be like if he had a bulging belly!"
Shu Shu thought about her cousin's delicate features, smiled, and said: "If it's Father Xiao, he's still like our Dong E family, and he looks pretty good."
Tai Fujin pinched her.
To be honest, the Aixinjueluo family's thin eyebrows and narrow eyes do affect the appearance of their children, but you can't say it in front of others.
Mrs. Jin was laughing beside her, and her whole body was stiff.
It's really hard to get through the door of this prince's mansion, and it's also hard to be a guest.
There were several sisters-in-law over there who treated Jiu Fujin as if he were a cute baby, but Mrs. Jin did not dare to slack off at all.
Each and every one of them told interesting stories about Jiu Fujin's childhood, whether it was his aunt or his aunt, it was as if they were kissing each other.
In that case, who taught Jiu Fujin his habit of taking action whenever he asked?

In the front hall, Brother Ninth is also waiting for guests.
The peers are Chun Tai, Gui Dan, Zhu Liang, and Fu Song. The elders are an uncle and a father-in-law.
We didn't share a table, so we all sat at the same table.
Chun Tai has the highest status and Qi Xi is the senior one.
Finally, Qi Xi was the guest of honor, Chun Tai was the second guest, and Daobao was the third guest.
The remaining ones are Fusong, Guidan and Zhuliang.
Brother Jiu still felt strange about this cousin of Tong Geng.
If I read too much in Fujin and don't worry about the saying that "if my cousin marries her, there will be no more children", then I can't help but enter Prince Kang's palace.
Haha, this heir is a big deal, it’s better to take it more seriously!
This marriage is a match made in heaven.
How many men in this world are as generous as myself?
I am happy that my wife is smart and capable, and I will not be jealous or suppress her.
How many useless men are there who have no future and can’t bear to see their wives being strong?
Brother Jiu thought about it and felt guilty after meeting Chun Tai. When he raised the wine cup to toast, he also said: "Fu Jin always talked about Tai Fujin's kindness. When he was a child, it was inconvenient to stay in the palace, but later he came out.
We must often go to pay homage to Taifu Jin."
Chun Taixiao's mother has some similarities between her eyebrows and Zhuliang brothers, but her facial features are more refined and she is fair-skinned. She doesn't look like a royal prince, but more like an elegant young man.
He looked at Brother Ninth and said, "We are already close relatives, and today we are even closer to each other. Lord Ninth doesn't need to be an outsider."
Brother Jiu nodded and looked at Chun Tai with sympathy in his heart.
After missing Fujin, he didn't know what a wonderful treasure he had missed.
Even if his future Fujin comes from a more outstanding family background and has a more outstanding appearance, his talent will not be as good as his own Fujin.
Guidan sat at the bottom, looking at Zhuliang once but not once.
Zhu Liang was young and couldn't hide his expression. When he saw Brother Jiu talking to Chun Tai, he showed nervousness.
Guidan felt strange and looked at Zhuliang several times.
Fusong noticed and raised the wine, saying: "Brother Gui, let's do one too!"
Guidan smiled and said: "Then I have to have a good drink with my brother. We two brothers are also friends for a long time!"
The two of them clinked their glasses together and took a drink.
Guidan looked at Fusong, with such a character, appearance, and class, he was a good candidate to be his brother-in-law.
It's a pity that he doesn't have a biological sister himself, and his cousins are also dissatisfied.
As for the Jin family, it is no longer suitable to be in Xin Zhe's library...
