Chapter 218 Debt Collection

Before dinner, Qi Bo came back and said with disgust: "With a wife is not virtuous, it will cause trouble for three generations. Then Lu is just a messenger. It is really unlucky to marry such a woman in Changsheng!"

It turned out that Lu's younger brother Lu Mancai also came. Lu Mancai was forced to get into Mulan by the creditor and the fool's Wu family, who was forced to go to the capital to join the Yin family, and quickly chased him all the way. He thought that the Yin family was a wealthy and noble family, and the most important thing was to face. He would definitely help him, a poor relative, pay off his debts for his brother-in-law's sake, and he could still rely on the Yin family.

What he didn't expect was that the people from the Wu family were following him. The Wu family spent so much money and finally made a wife for the stupid son who had been single-handed for the third generation. How could he let Lu Mancai and the Liu family go easily? Now, the Wu family proposed to compensate for the secret recipe of kimchi and the yard with the shop where the Liu family lives, otherwise the Liu family would have to fulfill the engagement and let them take Mulan away.

Zhihui asked anxiously: "How much money does my uncle owe to the Wu family?" Although it was a gambling debt obtained by Lu Mancai, the Wu family must have some handles after deciding on the Liu family, such as signing a document, and Changsheng could only bear the debt.

Qi Bo curled his lips and said, "I heard it was three hundred taels, but the Wu family now needs three times the compensation, and the three of them also need to pay the round trip to Luocheng for a total of 1,300 taels. Later, he said that he would go back to his hometown and couldn't wait for the Liu family to collect the money, so he asked to use kimchi recipe and shops and courtyards to pay directly."

"Oh?" Zhiruo asked, "What does the Wu family do?"

"A carpenter, specializing in making furniture. I heard that it is a family-born craft, so the Wu family is still a rich family with a good meal and clothing," replied Qi Bo. "Does the eldest girl feel a little suspicious? Qiangzi and I also think there must be some reason behind this. Now we can only wait for the result of Mowang to investigate."

It is not surprising that the Wu family has come to this, and it is not surprising that they want Mulan or Yin. How come they suddenly think of the recipe for spicy cabbage? If they are in the pickles and restaurant business, or have been in Luocheng for a long time, they know that spicy cabbage is popular, and it is reasonable to want to do the spicy cabbage business by themselves. But the problem is that neither of the above two assumptions are true.

Zhiruo nodded: "If the Wu family hadn't been too keen on the market and doing business, it would be very likely that someone would have instigated him to have a recipe for spicy cabbage. He just didn't want to come forward and was handled by the Wu family." As for what kind of person he was, how he had hooked up with the Wu family and what kind of deal he had reached, it was not something she could guess.

Mingze frowned and said, "It's not the Qiu family again, right?" The Qiu family lacked money. First, they conspired to calculate the dowry of the elder sister, and then focused on some snack recipes. Finally, they made some Midbutton Qixiang and made a big fuss. Now they must be more difficult. They need money, so it's not surprising that they can make spicy cabbage.

Zhiruo shook his head: "It shouldn't be. The Qiu family claims to be a marquis family and may not look down on small businesses like spicy cabbage, unless they have a series of pickled vegetables. "

The pickled vegetable business? Zhiruo's mind flashed through something, so fast that he almost couldn't catch it.

The name she heard not long ago. The Hong family’s Jiangxinzhai has a branch in Luocheng. It is common to search and acquire secret recipes for similar products from various places through branches. Is it the Hong family? But the Hong family is also a famous person. It’s not that they have tried the open-minded acquisition and use it? It’s okay for small families, but people with a certain reputation are very good.

"What about now?" Zhiruo pulled back the topic, "Zi Bo, you're not back now. Uncle Changsheng and the others should be fine for the time being, right? Also, the Liu family and the Wu family have really made a engagement?" She was very confident in Qi Bo's ability, and this matter would not be difficult for him.

Qi Bo nodded: "I told the Wu family directly in the past, I don't care about other things, but the yard and shop are from our Meizhuang, the house deeds and shop deeds are all from our second girl, and they were prepared in the government. The spicy cabbage recipe is also from our Meizhuang. Because the second girl's face is allowed to be used by the Liu family's snack bar, the base material used is still provided by Meizhuang. Changsheng and his son did not know the secret recipe for the base material, so it was useless to tell them the operation method.

Mu Sheng was very smart and shouted on the spot that he had said that the secret recipe was not in their father and son. The Wu family did not believe it, and said that if the Wu family handed over the engagement and ripped it out, he would immediately leave the operation procedure to the Wu family. Haha, the Wu family was stunned on the spot, as if they didn't know whether to accept it or not." It was precisely because of this that he even more suspected that someone behind the Wu family was urging him.

"As for the engagement," Qi Bo curled his lips contemptuously again, "There is no wedding letter, but the Wu family has Mulan's Geng letter in their hands, which should have been given by Lu's family without telling it." The woman's Geng letter could not be given to outsiders at will, unless she was given to her in-laws' house during engagement.

Zhiruo curled his lips gently: "Ziber, have you taken advantage of this?"

Qi Bo laughed: "Haha, that's right. I suggest that Changsheng sue Lu Mancai for stealing Geng Tie, and the Wu family use stolen goods to cheat marriage." According to Daying Law, it is not enough to have Geng Tie alone. There must also be a letter of engagement and a letter of engagement. The letter of engagement includes fingerprints for both parties in the family (in order of father, mother, grandparent, and adult brother). After the marriage is held, both men and women sign and press the fingerprints on the letter of engagement, and the letter of engagement officially becomes a legal and valid marriage.

"Haha," Zhiruo couldn't help laughing, "Your move is ruthless!" Jiang is still old. At this time, if Changsheng still takes care of Lu Mancai and cannot bear to sue him, then there is no need for them to help Changsheng. Whether to marry his daughter or pay money, or really hand over the spicy cabbage recipe, he will let him do it, but from then on Meizhuang will no longer care about him.

Zhihui didn't understand very well, but when he saw the expressions of his elder sister and Qi Bo, he unconsciously calmed down.

Qi Bo also laughed: "It is said that a pitiful person must have something hateful. If Changsheng insists on being that pitiful person, no one can help him. Fortunately, the father and son of Changsheng, especially Mu Song, are still clear-headed. Perhaps he had been tolerant of Lu Mancai because of Lu before. After the death of Mrs. Liu, he also wiped out the love. Once Changsheng's attitude is tough, the people of the Wu family will be soft." Except for those who are tough in the backstage and are like passing the court, who is willing to sue and enter the government?
