Chapter 478 479 See you

Yang Yi looked at Ruyi's sincere look, and bowed to him, "Thank you, Manager Zhou, for speaking frankly."

"Brother Yang, goodbye." Ruyi nodded at him and turned to leave.

Yang Yi returned to the room, knelt down at Father Yang and said, "Father, mother, elder brother, elder sister-in-law, I want to avenge my grandfather and seek justice for myself. I want to tell Manager Zhou what happened to us and expose that witch."

Mother Yang wiped her tears and said with tears: "Brother Yi, your grandfather asked us to go back to the countryside to live a good life. We can't fight them. Let's go back to the countryside to listen to grandpa."

"Mother, if you don't take down that temptress, no matter where we escape, we will not have a peaceful life. It's all my fault that I was deceived, thinking that I really took over a big business, hurt my family and my grandfather." Yang Yi knelt down Weeping in front of Mr. Yang's body.

Brother Yang said: "Father, mother, what Brother Yi said makes sense. Linxian is not far from the capital, so it would be easy for that sorceress to find us. Besides, we still have the receipt in their hands, even if we go to the yamen, we are still us. I'm sorry, I just heard Manager Zhou's words, he should be upright, we can try."

Father Yang looked at his son and said sadly, "I'll put your grandfather down first when I think about it."

Mother Song returned to Xiangjun's mansion and reported the good news to Ningxiangjun, "Ma'am, why did that **** go to Yang's house by chance? Is the Zhou family eyeing us?"

"A bunch of trash," Ning Xiangjun kicked the little girl who was beating her leg angrily, and scolded angrily: "The surnamed Zhou, you are everywhere, just wait! Madam I want to see if you are real L!"

Mother Song looked at the furious Ning Xiangjun with trepidation, and was very afraid that the anger would spread to her.

Ningxiang-Jun looked at Song Mamma gloomily, "Go to Yang's house, ask them to keep their mouths shut, and let a few people stare at Zhou's house."

"Yes, ma'am." Mammy Song breathed a sigh of relief, and exited cautiously, taking the car to Lantern Lane.

When she arrived at Lantern Lane, Song Mammy saw that the Yang family had hung up white flags. After a moment of hesitation, Mammy Song walked in with someone. She was saddened by the Yang family and the neighbors who came to help, and they all glared at them.

Mother Song didn't care about such eyes, and stared at Yang Yi like a poisonous snake, "Yang Yi, Madam said, please keep your mouth shut, or you will look good."

Father Yang's father and son clenched their fists tightly, watching Mammy Song lead people away, the old woman next door pulled Mother Yang and asked with concern, "Are they afraid of the little boy who came to my house today to inquire about news? elder brother?"

Mother Yang nodded with red and swollen eyes, "That little brother is capable, so he's not afraid of them."

The old woman clapped her hand and said with relief: "First take care of your father-in-law's funeral, and your father-in-law will bless you both."

Father Yang thought about the IOU, and finally made up his mind. Looking at Yang Yi, he said, "Brother Yi, go to East Street to see Steward Zhou immediately and ask him to take you to see Lord Zhou."

"Father, I'll go right now." Yang Yi responded and turned around and ran out.

Ruyi took the lantern and went home and reported to Li Yu what happened to the Yang family in Lantern Lane. After a while, Han San and Jixiang also came back.

Han San reported to Li Yuqi: "Ma'am, I knew a little about lending before, but today I asked a few people what kind of mortgages are available in Kyoto. They said there are underground banks, **** shops, and casinos. Just like the boy from the Feng family last time, he is profitable, but he can turn it several times in half a month."

"Underground banks and **** shops have several ways of lending money. There are donkeys rolling around, and one sitting on the ground. The donkey rolling is usually limited to one month, with monthly interest ranging from three to five cents, and the interest is doubled if it is not repaid. , the interest is included in the principal and interest for the next month, the principal gradually increases, and the interest increases exponentially. Most of the people who borrow this kind of money are poor, and even if they borrow a tael of silver, they can make their families go bankrupt.”

"Sit on the ground and draw one mostly in the small traders in Kyoto. It is limited to three months. The borrower borrows ten taels of silver and gets nine taels. The interest is still calculated according to the ten taels. After the maturity, the principal and interest are paid back to the thirteen taels. I asked. A few friends, they said that there is a **** shop in Beicheng that I heard that it was opened by a certain nobleman. That shop has enough money, a donkey rolls around, sits on the ground and draws a pawn, and also puts a kind of lamb's interest. As long as the lamb's interest is borrowed, nine People with more than 100,000 members will be forced to separate their wives and families, and their families will be destroyed."

Li Yu thought that there were loan sharks in the previous life, and this dynasty had no shortage of people who did this kind of business. For thousands of years, there was no shortage of people who wiped out their conscience for money. "A few of your friends, do you know the identity of that noble person?"

"I don't know. People who have done things with me have never dared to borrow money. They are afraid that they will not be able to get out. Madam, I think this pawnshop is very suspicious. I want to check it out."

Jixiang also said to Li Yu: "Madam, I also think we can check this **** shop to see what they are from?"

Li Yu thought for a while, "Okay, you guys go check it out and wait for the master to come back to see if he has found any clues in Jingzhao Yamen."

The two stood up and walked to the second door, and saw Ruyi hurried in, Jixiang looked at him, "What happened?"

Ruyi glanced at the two of them, "Yang Yi from Lantern Lane came to the door, waiting outside to ask to see the master."

Jixiang said curiously, "Why did the Yang family figure it out so quickly?"

"It was said that the witch's wife came to threaten them. I'll report to Madam, Yang Yi is still waiting outside the gate!"

Jixiang patted Ruyi and walked out with Han San.

Li Yu heard Ruyi's report, "You let him wait for the master to come back in the garden hall of the outer courtyard."

"Madam, his grandfather is gone. According to custom, he can't enter other people's houses. He said he wanted to see the grandfather." Ruyi said.

Li Yu nodded, "Go to the teahouse in the street to reserve a private seat, put him there, and ask Zhao Cai to pick up your master at the yamen."

"Yes!" Ruyi retreated. Li Yu went back to the house and looked at the sleeping child in the cradle, and fell into deep thought.

Ruyi took Yang Yi to the teahouse in the street, ordered some pastries and snacks, and said to Yang Yi, "Brother Yang, I heard that you have been studying for a few years, why don't you read it again?"

Yang Yi smiled bitterly, "Mr. Zhou, I'm not afraid of your jokes, it's my face that's causing trouble, my classmate's sister saw me, and she made a fuss about marrying me. The family is powerful, and I went back to the country to hide for a year. Since then, I have stopped going to school. Last year, my parents arranged a marriage for me. I thought that after getting married, I would not be able to hide at home and rely on my parents and brothers and sisters to support me. Another disaster."

Ruyi sighed, "Yeah! Poor people have such an outstanding child as you, and there are all kinds of bulls, ghosts, snakes and gods in the world of Kyoto. If you are unlucky, you will be ruthless and greedy to exchange children for money, but it is your grandfather. , The parents really care about their children, which is a disaster."

Yang Yi nodded, "That's true."
