When Cheng Yunshuo heard that he was arrested for gambling again, his face was full of disdain and disgust. He pursed his lips and said nothing, while Du Yang on the side said even more anxiously.
"Brother-in-law, just think of me as begging you. Artai was really tricked this time. He didn't want to gamble at first, so he was coaxed into being slaughtered as a pig. He really knew that he was wrong. Now he is being tied up in the gambling house. Fight, just help me once, and I promise to take good care of him in the future!"
"How much does he owe this time?"
"One thousand taels."
One thousand taels.
Cheng Yunshuo's brows furrowed to the sky.
To the Hou Mansion, one thousand taels was nothing, but his mother, Lu Lingjun, was in charge of the Hou Mansion's accounts. If he went to withdraw money, they would see it.
Ever since the incident with Xing Dai Rong, Cheng Yunshuo disliked asking the government for money with his palms turned up. For daily food and clothing expenses, his salary and some subsidies from the government were enough.
How can he get a thousand taels at a time?
"Yun Shuo! Just help us!" Du Yang begged again, "This time, I promise it will be the last time. If that brat Atai still dares to gamble, I will break his legs!"
As Du Yang said, he actually wanted to kneel down to Cheng Yunshuo.
When Cheng Yunshuo saw this, he jumped off the horse and grabbed Du Yang's hand.
"Forget it, I'll lend it to you."
He disliked them more than he disliked them, but still chose to help them.
Cheng Yunshuo did not tell Lu Lingjun and went back to the Marquis Mansion to get the money. He changed to a new position, met new colleagues and friends in the imperial army, and borrowed a thousand taels from his new colleagues for emergency purposes.
He is now serving as a member of the Royal Forest Army, and his monthly salary is ten taels of silver. Since Xing Dairong left, the Qin family has also come forward to pay him the monthly salary of the Hou Mansion. One hundred taels a month, and he will pay back the one thousand taels of silver later. .
After he borrowed a thousand taels of silver from here and there, he followed Du Yang to the gambling house and redeemed Du Tai.
Cheng Yunshuo had a dark face throughout the entire process.
"Good brother-in-law, I knew you wouldn't leave me alone." Du Tai looked at Cheng Yunshuo who had rescued him with a flattering look on his face.
"You bastard, you still have the nerve to say that!" Du Yang kicked Du Tai on the butt and beat him hard.
"Brother! I was cheated today too."
"This is the first time! If you do it again, no one can save you!" Du Yang punched Du Tai hard.
Du Tai did not dare to say anything while being beaten. Finally, Cheng Yunshuo said, "Okay, let him go."
After Du Tai was rescued, he ran to Cheng Yunshuo and said, "Brother-in-law, I knew you were reliable! My sister marrying you is a blessing to our family!"
"Ha!" Cheng Yunshuo said with a cold face, "If you really think about your sister, stop gambling! I won't pay you back a second time."
"I swear, I will never do it again." Du Tai looked sincere.
Cheng Yunshuo didn't even bother to look at him and swore, he turned over and wanted to get on the horse, Du Tai said again at this time.
"By the way, Yun Shuo, A Ruo has been staying with her aunt recently. You can take her back today by the way."
Du Ruo has been at her parents' house these days.
"Okay." Cheng Yunshuo said.
Aunt Du Ruo's house.
Du Ruo eats with everyone.
"Aruo, when will you return to the Hou Mansion?" Du Ruo's cousin asked carefully.
"Do you dislike me?" Du Ruo is now more and more sensitive, unlike before when he was eating and drinking at their house and didn't bother to listen.
She used to stay at her aunt's house for a long time, and her cousin-in-law would look at her with disgust when something happened.
She had just pretended that she had never seen it before, and had no inhibitions, or she might have gone back to her brother's house to stay away for a while.
But after marrying someone and becoming a concubine, your thoughts inevitably become more delicate.
I can't ignore the eyes of others like before.
"No way, you just think too much." The cousin-in-law laughed dryly.
"I think more, but you still dislike me for eating a few of your meals!" Du Ruo put down his chopsticks.
"Aruo, I really didn't mean that. I think you are married now and can't live in your mother's house forever."
"Don't say such things. Don't think that I don't know. You dislike me when I lived here before. You wish you could marry me off early. You just dislike me!" Du Ruo said angrily.
"What's the matter? Come on, if you want to live here, no one will ever kick you out." Du Ruo's aunt hurriedly tried to smooth things over.
Hearing her mother-in-law's favoritism and deception, Sister-in-law Du Ruo couldn't help frowning. She murmured in a low voice, "Marrying into the Marquis House will bring you great power. I don't know why I thought I was a mistress, but a concubine can be so majestic! How can there be anything in the world?" The reason for a concubine to return to her parents’ home!”
When Du Ruo heard the muttering, he became angry and couldn't help but want to have a quarrel with his cousin-in-law. Their house was pushed away.
"Aruo, look who's coming!"
"Aruo, the prince has made a special trip to take you back!"
When Du Ruo looked up, he saw Cheng Yunshuo coming back with Du Yang and Du Tai.
The moment she saw him, she couldn't help but blush.
"Go back?" Cheng Yunshuo looked at her and asked.
Du Ruo didn't say anything. He stood up and threw himself into Cheng Yunshuo's arms.
When everyone in the room saw this, everyone knew that Du Ruo was favored.
Everyone in the Du family stood up one after another, talking and laughing to please Cheng Yunshuo, and encouraged the two to reconcile.
"Aruo, you girl, it's true that the prince cares about you so much, but you are still so willful!"
"How well the prince treats you!"
"I will follow the prince for the rest of my life."
"Stop messing around."
Listening to everyone's words, Du Ruo felt sour and sweet in her heart. She followed Cheng Yunshuo out of Du's house, and they rode back together on the same horse.
Everyone in the Du family saw them off, and everyone looked at them with bright eyes.
They couldn't help but said.
"Aruo still has the ability."
"Aruo is very favored!"
Du Ruo felt touched after hearing these words. She felt that Cheng Yunshuo still cared about her in his heart. She had previously thought that Cheng Yunshuo looked down on her brother, maybe it was just because her brother failed to live up to his expectations.
That must be it.
But Cheng Yunshuo behind her didn't want to come to such a place even more.
Du Ruo's natal family... one by one, he became more and more disgusted and looked down upon.
What kind of people are these.
At this time, Du Ruo's voice came from his arms, "Master, why did you come here!"
When the soft, aggrieved and helpless voice fell, Cheng Yunshuo didn't think about anything else.
"What's wrong?"
"You can't do this to me in the future, and you can't drive me back to my parents' home. You don't even know how I live in my parents' home. I look forward to your coming every day."
How could Cheng Yunshuo listen to this? His heart immediately softened. Seeing Du Ruona's young age, he just felt that he had done it, "I won't do this next time."
"real?"
"Well, I won't make you angry again." Cheng Yunshuo thought that if Du Ruo was young, he still had to give in a little.
When Du Ruo heard this, he suddenly smiled and his resentment disappeared, "Master, you are so kind."
