The money was gone, so the old lady tried her old trick to open up the treasury.

Unfortunately, Lu Xiao, who had suffered a loss, had already replaced his guards with his own soldiers.

The old lady was frustrated again. She was not quarreled with her, and she only said one sentence: If you want to open the treasury, you must have a warrant from the marquis or his wife.

No matter how much she behaved and rolled around, no one paid attention to her.

There was no other way, Mrs. Lu could only blame her son, and let her daughter-in-law forget it. She knew that her brother-in-law was gambling, so she didn't know how to laugh at him.

"Tuk-tuk-"

There was a knock on the study door, and Lu Xiao knew who it was without having to guess. The soldiers guarding the warehouse had already reported it to him.

He said: "Come in."

The next moment, his mother pushed in the door with a smile on her face, and a cup of pig skin and egg drop soup was placed in front of her.

The veins on Lu Xiao's forehead twitched, and her mother had a loving look on her face: "Here! Drink it while it's hot. Mom remembers that you loved this when you were a child."

Luo Xi said that she should just follow what the second-hand broken shoes like to do to Lu Xiao. What does this mean?

Under the table, Lu Xiao clenched his fists and had another pork rind and egg drop soup. Because of its meaty taste, he loved to eat it when he was a child.

But with such a high position and authority, where can he be seen nowadays?

Even smelling it makes me feel sick and tired.

But to prevent my mother from lying on the ground and acting recklessly, he gritted his teeth and drank.

His handsome face instantly twisted... Damn it, it was really disgusting!

He reluctantly swallowed it and asked, "Mom! Is there anything else you can do?"

Anyway, if the old lady didn't speak first, he would pretend not to know.

Mrs. Lu rubbed her hands and said, "Honey, Mom is very strapped for money recently, can you..."

"No!" Lu Xiao interrupted before anyone could finish his words. He seemed to have guessed something, his voice was unbelievable: "Did you really give money to the gambling house for the third child?"

"Yes...yes!" the old lady said coquettishly: "Mom knows that your third brother is wrong. He has promised..." She suddenly stopped mid-sentence.

The old man's eyes widened little by little, "Did you know that the third child lost money?"

Then he became furious: "I know why you didn't stop it? You...you..." He covered his chest and took a step back:

"He is your brother, boss!"

Lu Xiao knew that he had made a mistake and wanted to prevent the elites from doing anything shocking again. After returning, he placed an informant around them.

Monitor every word and action, and don't cause any more trouble for him.

So he knew what Jipin did, including Lao San's gambling.

I knew it but didn't stop it. I've been waiting for today.

But I'm still a little angry. This bunch of idiots actually gave away their money after being threatened.

Don't think about it without thinking about it. With him in front, who would really dare to touch the third child without looking at the Buddha's face?

The original plan was to wait for my mother to come to ask for help, but he sent them back to their hometown on the basis of settling the matter.

Unexpectedly, I didn't catch it at first glance, and the person actually gave me the money.

He was so angry that he was dizzy and breathing heavily.

However, his mother was still rolling around there, about to lie down on the ground, and yelled, "That's enough," holding back the veins protruding from her forehead.

Seeing that his mother had shut up and rubbed her forehead, she changed her plan and said, "I can't give you this money. Once you get into gambling, you won't be able to quit."

"I'll give you money, but can you promise not to keep the third child in the dark?"

Don't you want to keep the third child in check? She really couldn't promise her boss this. She couldn't just watch her youngest son's legs being removed by vicious thugs.

That was the flesh that fell from her body, how could she ignore it?

Lu Xiao knew the answer just by looking at his mother's face. He acted like an elder brother and said, "Look! I give you money to indulge the third child in disguise."

"That's what you call harming him."

"Mom, please go back. I won't be able to give you the money from Potian again."

Seeing that his mother's eyebrows were raised and she was trying to play her best tricks again, Lu Xiao said coldly: "If you want to make trouble, just go and make trouble outside the house."

"Let everyone in the capital know that Third Brother is a gambler, ha! Go ahead."

The old lady opened her mouth, but these words took her seriously.

Indeed, she also pointed out that her youngest son would prosper and support her in his old age. His reputation as a gambler should not be spread!

Seeing her giving up all her activities for the sake of the third child, at this moment, knowing that my mother was partial, Lu Xiao couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable in his heart.

We are obviously a compatriot, and his mother can think about everything for that bastard, why can't she think about herself?

The temperature in his eyes became even colder: "Please come back."

"..."

The old lady who had not caught any hair came out of the study and saw Jiang Keyuan's arrogant face. She snorted coldly from the tip of her nose and left quickly.

Jiang Keyuan pushed open the study door. When the delicious smell of seafood entered her nose, Lu Xiao's face turned dark. Why do both of them like to give soup?

Just smelling it makes him want to throw up.

As she pushed the seafood porridge in front of her husband, Jiang Keyuan didn't see Lu Xiao's ugly expression clearly, and asked casually, "Mother, are you here to embarrass you again?"

Lu Xiao told his wife the whole story and said, "Wait a minute! When they are desperate, I will send them back home with 10,000 taels."

After getting the news she wanted, although Jiang Keyuan was not happy about giving 10,000 taels to the best people, her Jiang family was not short of money, so she treated it as begging.

Holding his lover's hand, Lu Xiao said affectionately: "I promised my father-in-law that I would never let you be wronged. If you wait any longer, my husband will solve it soon."

Jiang Keyuan fell into Lu Xiao's arms, her sensitive parts were brushed by big hands, and in an instant, the sweet voice in the study was as beautiful as spring.

The clouds pass and the rain breaks——

When Jiang Keyuan returned to the main courtyard, the maid Cuiliu greeted her with an excited face, holding a bag of gold, silver and jade articles: "Madam, you are really amazing."

"I sent someone to lure Mr. Lu to gamble. As expected, the old lady pawned the things she took from the warehouse. I got them all back for you."

Turning around and sitting on the soft stool in front of the reading mirror, Jiang Keyuan looked at herself in the mirror with spring-like features and smiled slowly.

Fingertips fiddled with the jade that returned to his hand, and his tone sounded disgusting and mocking: "Take it off and put it away. It's dirty!"

"Okay." Cuiliu went to put away the jewelry that had been worn by the old lady and was disliked by the lady. It won't take long for these to become gifts for them.

When he came back, he still couldn't help being happy: "Madam! The Marquis can't let them go much longer. These people you hate can return to their hometown soon."

"Going back to your hometown?" Jiang Keyuan repeated, those charming eyes in the mirror... flashed with viciousness.

Recalling the commotion the dead old woman had made since her arrival, some ladies and ladies looked at her strangely when she went out, which made her very shameless.

Just sending people back to their hometown is not enough to relieve the hatred in her heart, so she said with deep meaning: "How can just returning to my hometown be enough?"

Cuiliu's heart trembled. Madam is trying to eradicate the root! She hesitated and said: "But where is Mr. Hou?"

Jiang Keyuan lowered her eyes coldly and slapped Cuiliu's white and tender face. In an instant, five blood stains were clear and dazzling.

"How are you, Lord Marquis? You, a lowly servant, need to care about me?"

"I don't dare." Cuiliu knelt on the ground.

Jiang Keyuan stared at him for a while and then said: "Get up! Just don't let him know about it from the Marquis. He will be sad, but he won't go into it."

Sure enough, within three days, Lu Laosan returned to his old ways and went gambling again.

When the old lady went to the street... she was blocked in the alley again!

This time, she could only secretly sell a batch of porcelain vases, calligraphy and paintings from her daughter-in-law's yard to pay off the debt.

However, paper cannot cover the fire after all.
