Chapter 35 How dare you embezzle it?
Gu Shanxing stared blankly at their excited expressions, and was filled with fear for a moment. Song Jinhuai saw that he looked stupid and scolded him hurriedly.
"What are you standing there for? Are you so happy about the money? Give it to me now."
More than 60,000 taels of silver, more than 60,000.
Seriously.
Although he was the eldest son of the Duke's Mansion, he had never seen a banknote worth tens of thousands of taels of silver in his life. His mother only gave him a few thousand taels of silver at most at a time. His father liked to spend lavishly and could not give him much. He also tried to do a few businesses, but failed every time.
"Shanxing, what are you dawdling about?"
An Yinyin was so anxious that she walked up to him and reached into his arms.
However.
Drops of cold sweat fell on An Yinyin's fair wrists. Then Gu Shanxing knelt down in front of them with a bitter face, speaking with trembling lips.
"Master, I didn't get the silver."
"What?"
Song Jinhuai was so anxious that he sat up suddenly, but he rubbed the wound on his butt again and jumped up in pain. He covered his butt and pointed at Gu Shanxing.
"What nonsense are you talking about? We invested nearly ten thousand taels of silver, and you want to get back more than sixty thousand taels of silver. Now you tell me there is no silver?"
When An Yinyin heard that there was no money, she raised her hand and slapped him in the face and screamed.
"Explain clearly, what do you mean by not getting the money?"
Gu Shanxing covered his face with his hands, looking aggrieved and panicked, and looked up at An Yinyin.
"When I got there, it was completely empty. There was no one there. That group...that group ran away with the money."
Bang.
The things around Song Jinhuai fell to the ground with a bang, and both Song Jinhuai and An Yinyin felt as if their heads had exploded, and suddenly became empty.
What?
Run...run away?
Why would he run away? That place is a place for betting, it's always busy and there's never been any problems.
"Is it because you are greedy for money that you took the money and don't want to give it to us?"
An Yinyin grabbed Gu Shanxing's clothes and questioned him, saying that she needed the money, which was more important than her life, and she had to use the money to heal her face.
The medicine cost of more than 40,000 yuan is waiting to be paid with this money. Now she is told that there is no money. What should she do?
Go get the medicine back?
When the medicine reaches the doctor's hands, it must have been crushed, otherwise it will not be returned.
Let’s talk about it later.
She had to heal herself, no matter what.
"Madam An, I am a family-born child and have lived in the Song Mansion for generations. How could I possibly do such a thing as betraying my master? If I really took such a large sum of money, I should have fled with my family. Why would I still stay here? The house is truly deserted."
"I don't believe it!"
Song Jinhuai gritted his teeth and shouted angrily, and also became panicked. Nine thousand taels of silver, that was their nine thousand taels. Now he was going to tell them that they had lost everything, how would they live in the future?
"Someone, come, kill two people."
He excitedly shouted outside. After several servants rushed in, he immediately pointed at four people and asked them to go and check it out immediately.
Song Jinhuai glared at Gu Shanxing fiercely, clenched his fists, pursed his lips, and paced back and forth.
Will Gu Shanxing betray himself?
But that was 60,000 taels of silver, an amount of money their ancestors would never see in their lifetime. Anyone would be greedy.
Gu Shanxing knelt there trembling, his face growing paler and paler. He saw suspicion of himself and even murderous intent in Song Jinhuai's eyes.
soon.
The four people who went out came back together and said that there was a very long queue there and everyone was exchanging money. It was not as deserted as Gu Shanxing said.
They rushed forward to ask for the money from the Duke of Song's Mansion, but the other party said that more than 60,000 taels of money from the Duke of Song's Mansion had been taken away. They took out the note from the Song Mansion, which indeed stated that the money had been exchanged.
…
Gu Shanxing suddenly fell to the ground and began to tremble violently.
No.
He really didn't go to get the money.
Song Jinhuai and An Yinyin's faces suddenly darkened, and Gu Shanxing hurriedly knelt on the ground and kowtowed.
"Sir, I really didn't get the money. No, maybe they hadn't come when I went there, so if I go now, I will have the money."
Song Jinhuai rushed forward and kicked Gu Shanxing in the heart. The pain made him curl up into a ball and suffocate.
"Didn't you hear what they said? They said the Song Mansion's money had already been exchanged, and the notes were back in their hands. Gu Shanxing, I trusted you so much, and you dared to do such a betrayal."
An Yinyin grabbed something and threw it at him.
"This money is very important to me, Gu Shanxing. I can give you anything you want, but you have to give me this money first."
As she spoke, she leaned over, grabbed Gu Shanxing's hair and pulled it hard.
One by one, the hair was pulled out from the scalp by the root, and the scalp suddenly bulged out. Gu Shanxing felt so weak from the pain that he finally crawled down to his knees.
"My Lord, please believe me. I really haven't received the money. The receipt is still on me."
Finished.
Gu Shanxing put his hand into his arms, but the moment he put it in, the scene of being bumped by someone on his way back flashed through his mind.
His face turned ashen in an instant.
Someone was plotting against me.
This must have been a plot. The police stole it. They stole it.
"The note was stolen. Yes, it must have been stolen."
"Sir, Sir, this must have been done by the people who placed the bets. They don't want to pay these tens of thousands of taels of silver, and they want to take your silver for themselves. It must be them who did it."
But no matter how he explained or begged, Song Jinhuai no longer believed him. Instead, he thought that he was being stubborn and wanted to keep his money for himself. He grabbed the cup and smashed it on his forehead, then yelled hysterically.
"Come here, drag him out and beat him up. Beat him up hard."
The servants rushed in and dragged Gu Shanxing out. Gu Shanxing struggled and cried.
"My Lord, my Lord, please believe me. I really didn't take it. I was tricked. I was tricked."
If it weren't for someone's careful planning, how could things have developed so cleverly.
Song Jinhuai and An Yinyin became more and more angry as they listened. Seeing that he was about to run away, An Yinyin said angrily.
"Hit me quickly, the harder the better."
Song Jinhuai added another sentence.
"Beat him until he spits out the silver. If he doesn't, kill his entire family."
"No, no, my aunt, I really didn't steal the silver. My family has been in the Song family for generations and is the most loyal. I would never betray my master. Please, my aunt, please let my family go. Please."
But.
No matter how Gu Shanxing struggled and begged for mercy, Song Jinhuai just stood at the window and watched coldly, watching him being beaten, watching him bleed, watching his family members being brought in one by one, without saying a word.
Looking at his family kneeling beside him, Gu Shanxing's eyes were suddenly filled with despair.
