I Am a Wishing Tree
Chapter 31: Episode 09
"Stop talking!"
He Ai sneered when she heard the scolding voice of the ten old grandfather.
"Why, you can only be allowed to do it, but the bitter master is not allowed to talk about it!"
The hoarse voice of the third old master sounded again, "Little Jiulang, you have a grudge against your relatives!"
"The patriarch has misunderstood, if I have a grudge, I'm afraid I would have been the same as my father, how could I have come to this point, so I have no grudges, I just want to leave you group not only in the key The clansmen who can’t be depended on in time, and who will fall into the limelight are farther away. My grandmother was born in a business, and that’s what you are marrying and begging. Why should she and her descendants be treated like this by you? The division is, why bother to continue to entangle!"
The three old masters looked at He Ai, "This is your purpose today!"
"Yes! I am not afraid of what the world thinks of me, but I absolutely cannot tolerate it. My family and I have to always be on guard against calculations from the clan. Sorry, I just want to hide!"
"He Yu, you are arrogant!"
He Ai turned to look at Uncle He, who was blushing with anger, and called out, "Someone!"
Qingsong, the most useful servant beside her, quickly brought in a small parcel, put it in front of He Ai respectfully, and then opened it abruptly at her signal, only to see the inside With a stack of books.
"Qingsong, that seventh master thinks that your master is too arrogant, let people know, I can actually be more arrogant!"
"Yes!"
After Qingsong responded respectfully, he found the book of He Qiye's room according to the label of the account book without delay. After opening it, he read it clearly. What year, month, date, when, and whom He Qiye had a private meeting with, and when He Qiye took advantage of his position and coveted little family property, it was all clear.
"Don't read it! You, you are lying! Don't read it! Did you hear it!"
Qingsong turned a deaf ear to He Qiye's alarmed and angry reprimands, and He Ai once again looked at He San, who could no longer maintain a calm attitude.
"Third Master, you see, I'm really heartbroken for the sake of this family, now I'm tired, I just want to take care of our little five-family family, I don't know what you think what?"
The three old master raised his hand and said, "It's up to you to let him stop, but you have to hand over all this stuff!"
Anyway, there is a backup in the academy, and He Ai agreed very readily.
"No problem, as long as the business is divided, it is useless for me to keep these, I will leave them all to you for safekeeping!"
, I hope you will remember that this matter will be stopped here, and the past will not be mentioned again!"
He Ai replied with a hearty smile.
"Seventh Master, don't worry, I understand all these truths, such as my mother, my wife and children, if any one of them is bad and makes me sad, I will definitely do something wrong. Let both of us follow the crime of killing heads, so you all remember to restrain yourself, stop being too greedy, always do things that are not on the table, damage my reputation, and make me have to kill my relatives righteously!"
It went well, and the two sides seemed to be enjoying themselves, so that outsiders could not understand why.
When she took the separate documents home and handed them over to Liu Conglan, she was sobbing with a document. Looking after her, she didn't come to the point where she needed to make her daughter take the big crime of beheading as a man.
The men who can stand up to the door, those clansmen hold them tightly, and the foreign surname is not easy to manage.
After crying, Liu Conglan said, "With this, we will no longer have to worry about the family. You should resign and come back!"
He Ai helplessly patted the other party's back and comforted.
The reason I agreed to split the sect is because I am concerned about my current official status, after all, there have been no capable people in the clan for some years, and once I resign now, their backlash, we may not be able to bear it!"
Liu Conglan had no choice but to dismiss her thoughts and worried.
"I've never heard of someone like you who can take the top spot and become an official. I heard that there are people everywhere in the capital who can become officials in the imperial court. Yes, all of them have more than a hundred heart eyes, you solid eyes, in that kind of place, when I think about it, I am so worried that I can't sleep!"
"Mother, you are asking for trouble, eat a good night's sleep, and take care of your body, even if you have helped me a lot, that's what I think, first in Beijing to be a couple Nianguan, after getting familiar with the situation, I will seek an expatriate. For the past two years, you and Mingxiu and the others have still lived in the academy. When I go out, I will bring you with me. There are many noble people in Beijing, so you can follow I don't feel comfortable going!"
Liu Conglan nodded quickly, and then hesitated.
"The children are getting bigger and bigger, you are a father, but you are not at home every day, the children ask, it is also pitiful, otherwise, you will take Mingxiu and his mother with you Come on, our family now supports such a big business, I have to stay and watch it myself to be relieved!"
He Ai shook his head and said, "Mother, you don't know, I will leave you all behind so that I have an excuse to send those human relations, the family's property, I didn't say it, it can be handed over to the academy Can you help me take care of it?"
You are smart, and when you do things, they are all the same, but if I don’t watch it with my own eyes, I can’t let go of my heart!”
"Mother, our family's harvest in the past few years is not bad, the family has a small population, and the spending is limited. You are so nervous about what those workshops do, and we can't afford to lose money. I hope you can Peace of mind and have a good time, don't think too much all day!"
Liu Conglan replied angrily, "You have an idea for a while, although in the past few years in general, you have made money well, and you have made a lot of money, but you spend Those who went out, don't you have any points in your heart? This is in case you slap your head at any time and want to do something big and take a lot of money from home, I must prepare in advance!"
During the conversation, Chen Mingxiu, who had arranged for the children, also came to the inner room. After listening to Liu Conglan repeating those words for her, Chen Mingxiu also said.
"Mother is right, although the family has a lot of money now, but you have always had a lot of money, and you spend money without blinking your eyes, don't prepare more, I think There is no bottom, besides, it is very interesting to open a workshop to make money. In your words, my mother and I have our own careers now, and we have a very fulfilling life, even if the hard work is worth it!"
Liu Conglan agrees from the side. She is only forty-five or six years old this year. Although she has suffered the pain of losing her husband and children one after another, her character is very tough. Under the intentional guidance of her, she enriched herself with a busy career, and with her grandchildren, Cheng Huan, she would not have so much time to hurt her mind, and she had inadvertently walked out of those sad pasts and radiated new life.
The fact that she was too expensive to spend was pointed out one after another. He Ai wanted to argue for herself, but found that this was a fact that she could not deny, so she had to say.
"Anyway, you have to do what you can, don't force yourself, take care of your body is the most important, you don't have too much pressure, I can live without spending money!"
Liu Conglan's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were just making fun of her, but she didn't mean anything else. He Ai knew it in her heart. When it came to the next arrangement again, Chen Mingxiu said directly.
To add a burden to you, you are not going to take us there, you are right."
"As for Sister Qiao and the others, you don't have to worry, not only the gentlemen and ladies in the academy take good care of our family, but even their children also take good care of Sister Qiao and their brothers and sisters, you I don't know, they even brought Sister Qiao to dress up as a boy and went to the classroom to listen, if you say you want to take her to Beijing now, she's probably not willing, she's just excited!"
He Ai nodded and said, "Sister Qiao likes to go to the academy to listen, don't stop it, our family does not taboo those, daughters are well-bred, and at critical times, they are not worse than their sons, right mother!"
Liu Conglan raised her hand and tapped her forehead, "You don't have to be so arrogant, don't worry, there are only three grandchildren in the family, as long as they are happy, I will have no objection!"
We have always respected others' desire to learn, and of course we will not favor one over the other for our own children!"
Before leaving home and returning to Beijing, He Ai deliberately set up a banquet at home to entertain her brothers-in-law and brothers-in-law, not only to announce that the fifth room had been separated from the He clan, but also to beat these brothers-in-law , brother-in-law.
Liu Conglan has two daughters and one son under her knees. There were originally five concubines in the family, and they gave birth to four daughters. It was Liu Conglan who decided to give the dowry and let them go out of the mansion to remarry. The remaining two who had daughters did not want to remarry, so they stayed in the mansion.
Among the six sisters, the original owner ranks fifth, the eldest sister He Rong is a direct descendant, and the others are concubines. There are relatively few contacts.
"We are brothers, you are welcome, please come over today, one is because I am going to Beijing to work, before I leave, I want to have a party with my brothers, and the other is for our five rooms. You must have heard about the big event, yes, our five rooms have been divided into separate cases."
The eldest brother-in-law Feng Xudong passed the examination in his early years as a scholar, but he failed repeatedly in the subsequent township examination. In Yangcheng, although it is not as good as the He family, it is also a well-known family of farming and reading.
"Don't worry about the elder brother-in-law, the clan is indebted to our five houses, they won't say anything more, now after the division of the clan, I don't worry much about my family, anyway, there is the academy who will help Take care, but my sisters often make me uneasy. When I think of Wu Niang, I can't help but think of them, and I often worry about their situation in my husband's house. deep!"
As soon as these words came out, the expressions of everyone in the banquet suddenly became a little subtle.
"Brother, please rest assured, I have been a husband and wife with your eldest sister for many years and have a deep relationship, so she will never be wronged in our Feng family!"
Feng Xudong is someone who will come, and he has been good to Rongniang these years, but it is only good. There are no less than five concubines and concubines in his home.
"I'm more at ease with my eldest brother-in-law, but I'm not at ease with other sisters, such as my fourth sister, I'm really worried when I see the spirit of her coming back this time. Very, I am afraid that if she goes on like this, she will follow in the footsteps of Wu Niang, if the Wang family can't tolerate her, Brother Wang will directly say that our He family can still support a few of their mothers!"
