Chapter 2 Am I Poor(1/2)
"Cough, cough, cough." Zhao Weiji heard a roar outside the house and choked on the steamed bun he just ate. When Yunxiang next to him saw this, he immediately went to avoid hitting Zhao Weiji's back. It took a while for Zhao Weiji to recover.
Come on.
"Hey, Zhao Weiji, are you awake? Pay back the money!" Just at this moment, another roar came from outside the door.
"Who is this grandson?" Zhao Weiji took a sip of water, calmed down, and then asked Yunxiang.
"I don't know either. How about I find someone to take a look?" Yunxiang returned.
"Go quickly, go quickly."
Yunxiang went out and found Zhao Wu who was waiting outside the door and asked Zhao Wu to go see who was yelling outside. After a while, Zhao Wu returned to the room and whispered a few words in Yunxiang's ear, and then exited the room.
.
"Back to the young master, it's General Pan's young master, Master Pan Weiqing. He said that he lost a thousand dollars in a bet with him last time."
"Oh, ah? Is there such a thing?"
"I guess there is, sir. You can't remember the past now. You used to bet with others."
"Oh, really?" Zhao Weiji mentally cursed: "This guy used to be a loser. He would always bet with people every day when he had nothing to do. Now it's better. All the gambling debts this guy had before belong to me. Sister.
of."
"Yunxiang, if that's the case, just go and get a thousand dollars to pay him back. Go quickly."
"But, but." Yunxiang said with a somewhat embarrassed expression.
"But what? Isn't it just a thousand guan? Just pay him back, why are you so coquettish? I can't even get a thousand guan from you, sir?"
"My father-in-law, you are right. But I still can't get it out." Yunxiang said with some frustration. "This month's expenses have almost exceeded the budget. My father-in-law, we rely on the county father and your general Zuo Xiaowei.
We can live with our salary. Originally, our salary was okay, but you were a bit extravagant in the past, so everything was a bit tight. In addition, after the death of the old prince, there was no one to help us."
"Don't I still have a brother?"
"Do you still remember that you have brothers? But why don't you remember that they are almost the same as you? I guess you don't have any spare money to lend to us."
"I'll go." Zhao Weiji almost choked again. "Your sister is also a prince and aristocrat after all. It's too embarrassing to live like this." Zhao Weiji has mentally regarded the original owner of the body as the female surname of the eighteenth generation of his family.
Relatives all sent greetings
After thinking about it for a while, I really had no other choice but to helplessly say to Yunxiang: "Yunxiang, help me get up and change clothes. I'll discuss it with Pan Weiqing. By the way, have I been familiar with Pan Weiqing before?"
What's his name?"
"Master Pan, nicknamed Shubai, seems to be quite familiar with the father-in-law." Yunxiang thought for a while and replied.
"Acquaintance? That's good, acquaintances can fool you."
"Fooling? What is cheating, sir?"
"It's just a lie...why do you care so much? Help me change my clothes."
"oh."
After a while, Yunxiang helped Zhao Weiji change his clothes and helped Zhao Weiji to the living room. In the living room sat Pan Weiqing, who had been invited in by his servants. Moreover, there were two followers standing behind Pan Weiqing. The two followers were about 6 feet tall.
He has thick limbs, a fleshy face, and a fierce look in his eyes. He is probably a bodyguard.
The same type. Look at Pan Weiqing, who is nearly 6 feet tall and well-proportioned. His body is a good inheritance from his father, General Pan Mei. His face is also handsome. But his behavior is a bit frivolous, like a young man. Also, his eyes move slowly.
It's like being ill for a long time and feeling a little comatose.
After observing these, Zhao Weiji was convinced. "This person doesn't look smart. He is probably easy to fool."
"Cough, cough, cough, please excuse me, Uncle Bai. I just woke up from a coma and it's not easy to move around. I hope you'll forgive me."
"What did Guoxiang say? I didn't wait long. And it seems that Guoxiang is in good condition, so the bet we made that day should be fulfilled."
"Ha, ha, that's the thing." Zhao Weiji laughed and thought to himself: "This man speaks so straightforwardly and doesn't know how to beat around the bush at all. It seems that the young master is used to his usual way of speaking, and he speaks straight to the point.
No. It seems easy to fool."
"Brother Shubai, it's not that I won't pay back the money I owe. In fact, I was in a coma after falling off a horse until I woke up today. After I woke up, I was diagnosed by the doctor as suffering from amnesia. I can't remember all the things and people in the past.
I'm not sure, my maid Yunxiang told me everything about Brother Shubai, right? Yunxiang." After saying this, Zhao Weiji winked at Yunxiang.
"Yes, yes. As my father-in-law said, he just woke up today, but he didn't recognize anyone after he woke up. Later, he went to a doctor for diagnosis and found out that my father-in-law was suffering from aphansia."
"What does Guoxiang mean?"
"It's like this. Yunxiang told me that while I was in coma, my family hired a doctor and took medicine, which almost cost me this month's expenses. In addition, I can't remember the past, so this bet
It’s gold…”
"Wait a minute, Guoxiang, do you think you're trying to cheat and not give me the money?"
"Of course not. Brother Shubai, please listen to what I have to say first. The money must be given, but I really can't remember what happened in the past. If I have to bear this debt, I feel a little panicked.
Ah. In addition, we are good friends, and the gambling debts are gambling debts, but I am also seriously ill, so I won’t take any responsibility if you come to see me.
It's a bit rude to just come to visit my doctor. So if you reduce your gambling debt a little, I'll treat it as if you came to see me with a gift, so it's not rude. In addition, if you reduce your gambling debt a little, I feel like
I feel better now, and my natural illness will heal quickly as I feel better. This can be regarded as Brother Shubai doing a good deed, right?"
"What you said seems to make sense." Pan Weiqing thought for a moment in confusion. "What do you think?" After he couldn't make up his mind for a while, he asked the two followers behind him.
"It seems to make sense." Follower A said.
"Yes, yes." Class B said.
"Okay, Guoxiang, how much do you plan to lose?"
"Well..." Zhao Weiji felt secretly happy. It's really easy to fool you. You won't be smart when you look like that. Wait until I fool you again to reduce your gambling debt as much as possible. "Then five hundred dollars."
"Ah, five hundred strings?"
"Five hundred guan is not enough? How about 700 guan?"
"Seven hundred strings?"
"Not enough? Then eight hundred strings?"
"Eight hundred strings?"
"Isn't it okay? We are so familiar, isn't it okay?"
"Okay, Guoxiang, you already said that we are so familiar with each other, so if it's eight hundred, I'll suffer a little loss."
"Okay, Uncle Bai, you are such a good person. You reduced my gambling debt of eight hundred dollars in one go. There is no better person in the world than you. Since my father passed away, I have never experienced anything like this in the world.
It's warm." After saying that, Zhao Weiji pretended to touch the corners of his eyes twice, as if he had really touched two tears.
"Subtract 800? When did I say to lose 800? Also, aren't you suffering from amnesia? How can you remember your father's affairs?"
"Don't worry about the details. Haven't we been talking about reducing debts? Of course eight hundred is the subtracted value. Brother Shubai, you are also a person of status. I'm afraid it's not good to play with someone like me who is a psychopath.
Right?" Zhao Weiji looked innocent.
"You! Forget it, for the sake of your apathy, just reduce the 800 by 800. Anyway, this young master is not short of this money. So now you can take out the money and pay it back, right?"
"Still not working."
"Why is this? Didn't you lose 800 pounds?"
"Brother Shubai, what's wrong with you? Didn't I tell you before that my county government has almost spent all its expenses this month, and I really don't have the money to pay you back. How about you wait until my salary is paid next month before paying you back?
?”
"Did you say that before?"
"Of course I said it. If you don't believe me, just ask your entourage."
Pan Weiqing then looked at Attendant A. Attendant A immediately replied: "I said it, I said it. My father-in-law said it before." Then he looked at Attendant B, who also nodded.
"Then it's my fault that the young master didn't remember it. I'm sorry to Guoxiang."
"Wait, it still doesn't work. My monthly salary is only 200 guan. I'll pay it back to you. Next month, everyone in our house will have to drink the northwest wind. How about I pay you back in installments, 20 guan per month, ten
I'll pay it off every month. Is that okay? I know that Brother Shubai has a lot of people, so I decided like this. Thank you, Brother Shubai."
"Then...then why am I still here?"
"Ouch, Brother Shubai has been doing this for so long and no one shows me the tea. Yunxiang, what are you servants doing? Quickly show me the tea to Brother Shubai." At this time, Zhao Weiji pretended to scold Yunxiang for his lack of etiquette.
, in fact, my heart has already blossomed with joy.
When Pan Weiqing saw him like this, he became a little angry and said: "Forget it, brother Guoxiang, don't reprimand these servants. I'm fine now, so I won't delay Guoxiang's recovery. I still
Let’s go.” Then he stood up and motioned to the two followers and walked out.
"Brother Shubai, please go slowly. I'm not in good health, so I won't send it off in person. Yunxiang, hurry up and send brother Shubai off."
After watching Yun Xiang invite Pan Weiqing out of the hall, Zhao Weiji put a bitch smile on his face. "It's so easy to cheat." I'm not afraid of another dozen of these guys.
At this time Yunxiang turned back and didn't know whether to cry or laugh when she saw the father-in-law's face. "Master, don't be too happy too early. Our government's salary is only two hundred dollars. We will pay you back next month."
Where can the whole family go to eat?”
"What? Am I that poor?"
"It's not that we are poor. A salary of two hundred dollars is actually a very high income. It's just that you spent money lavishly in the past and we don't have much savings. Plus you made such a big bet. So..."
