Chapter 814
When the grandfather and grandson came to the door, they saw four men carrying something, covered by a brocade cloth.

A middle-aged man in Chinese clothes stepped forward and cupped his hands: "Thank you, old lady."

Xie Guangde asked doubtfully, "This is?"

The man in Chinese clothes said with a smile: "The villain is ordered by Miss Tantai to bring things to the house."

Xie Guangde heard the words and looked towards Xie Fu, Xie Fu nodded with a smile, there was no one else but Tantai Heqing.

Since the daughter-in-law brought it here, let's move it inside first to see what it is. Xie Guangde said, "Move in first."

The man in Chinese clothes told the four people who were carrying the things to be careful, and the four people were also very cautious, frightened every step of the way, for fear of making a mistake.

When the things were moved to the hall and put down, the four men breathed a sigh of relief.

The man in Chinese clothes said: "Please uncover the old lady."

Xie Guangde tore off the brocade cloth out of curiosity, and suddenly the precious light shone, and the whole hall was radiant with the precious light.

Even Xie Guangde, who doesn't love wealth, couldn't help sighing.

But it is a Zhilan jade tree half a foot wide and seven feet high, carved with pure jade and inlaid with jewels.

It is so lifelike and radiant that it makes people unable to open their eyes.

The man in Chinese clothes said with a smile: "This is Miss Tantai."

Xie Guangde gasped, the future granddaughter-in-law's handwriting is too scary, compared to this orchid and jade tree, Xie Fu's bag of gold and silver is so shabby.

The man in Chinese clothes took out a letter from his pocket and handed it to Xie Guangde: "This is Miss Tantai's letter."

Xie Guangde opened the letter:

A lesson from the ancestors: the grandson-in-law who has never passed the family, pays homage to him...

The letter stated that she was unable to visit her in person because of her illness and expressed deep apologies, so she sent a Zhilan Yushu to wish her ancestors a long life and good health...

After reading it, Xie Guangde nodded with a smile, turned his head to look at the orchid and jade tree, and read out the couplet on it: "" Qiao Zi in the first court is full of hair, and the fourth generation of orchid is full of white eyebrows.Good, good, good meaning, good intention..."

Then the man walked to the couch in the middle of the hall, and ordered: "Move the couch first, and put it in the middle."

Xie Fu approached and said in a low voice: "Grandpa, don't you dislike the ruthlessness of this horse?"

Xie Guangde said unhappily: "What do you know, giving jade is naturally different from giving gold and silver."

Xie Fu looked at the Zhilan Yushu after it was arranged, it was too dazzling, and said, "Don't you think it's too tacky?"

Xie Guangde is not happy: "Fart! Yuhan's fortune is long, good luck and well-being, and the meaning of this couplet is really good. The family of Qiaozi is all beautiful, the fourth generation Zhilan has white eyebrows, and Yurun's family is safe. From now on, this is me. It is the treasure of the town house of the Xie Mansion."

He still didn't forget to teach Xie Fu a lesson: "In the future, you should learn from Heqing and give me a bag of gold and silver. How did you come up with it?"

Hehe, the more I look at it, the more I like it, the more I look at it, the more I like it, I am so happy from ear to ear.

Xie Fu smiled and said, "It's fine if you like it, I don't care."

"Go aside, I hate you again when I see you."

"Thank you, old lady, then let's go first."

Xie Fu suddenly remembered the task of Heqing asking him to spend all the honeysuckle flowers, rewarding the four people who moved things.

The four received silver rewards, thanked them quickly, and said a few kind words to Xie Guangde, making Xie Guangde even happier.

……

At noon, Xie Guangde ordered Uncle Quan to prepare a table of wine and food for Xie Fu.

Xie Li also sat down, and Uncle Quan waited on him, it was a family banquet.

Seeing Uncle Quan standing, Xie Fu smiled and said, "Uncle Quan, you should sit down too."

Quan Bo smiled: "Second Young Master, you are confused, I am a servant."

Xie Fu asked back: "Uncle Quan, you have stayed in my house for decades, are you still an outsider?"

Generally, rich families pay great attention to the dignity of master and servant, and servants cannot sit at the same table with their masters, but as Xie Fu said, Uncle Quan has stayed in Xie's family for decades, and he has long been like his family members. Xie Guangde smiled and said: "Ah Quan, The second young master asked you to sit down, so you can sit down."

Uncle Quan was overwhelmed, he obeyed Xie Guangde's order and sat down, but still fulfilled his duty of serving, pouring wine for the master and the two young masters.

Today is really happier than New Year's Eve.

After having a drink together, Xie Fu asked: "Uncle Quan, where are the other servants in the mansion?"

Earlier, Xie Fu saw that the inside and outside needed the help of Uncle Quan, but he didn't see any other servants, so he asked this question.

Uncle Quan smiled: "They're all gone, I'm the only one left."

Xie Fu asked, "Why are you all gone?"

There are some things that Quan Bo is not easy to say, but he looks at Xie Guangde lightly.

Xie Guangde's forehead sounded a little hard to say.

On the contrary, Xie Li smiled and said: "The family has nothing to say."

"Fu, after you left, the ancestral hall was burned down. The clansmen proposed to move the throne of Lord Yaoqing back to the old place in Kuaiji. The clansmen pushed hard. In order to raise enough money to rebuild the Xie clan's ancestral hall, grandpa sold all the ancestral properties, and the family also paid for it. In order to save money, all the other servants were dismissed."

There are only two old men living in poverty and embarrassment, how can they support other servants.

Xie Fu said guiltily, "It's all my fault, if it wasn't for me..."

Before Xie Fu finished speaking, Xie Guangde beat him hard and scolded: "You bastard, you still want to hide it from me!"

Xie Fu was puzzled: "Grandpa, what are you hiding from you?"

"Li'er told me that the fire was caused by his negligence, and you are the blame for him."

Uncle Quan exclaimed when he heard the words, recalling the scene where Fu Xie was being chased by him, his heartbroken eyes immediately turned red, Second Young Master, Second Young Master, you can swallow such a big grievance, even if Therefore, he was expelled from the clan without any complaints.

It's deplorable that Uncle Quan has a wolf's heart, and his dog's eyes are completely blinded.

Xie Fu looked at Xie Li in astonishment, only to hear Xie Li say with a smile: "Fu, I have suffered wronged you for so long, brother is here to express my apology to you, and I offer you a toast."

Xie Fu served wine as soon as he drank, the two brothers need not say much, one of them had to stop the responsibility and save the other, Xie Fu was undoubtedly the most suitable candidate.

Xie Fu also believed that if something happened to him, his elder brother would take care of him when needed.

Immediately afterwards, Uncle Quan picked up the wine glass with both hands, tremblingly said: "Second Young Master, Uncle Quan also wants to toast you."

"Okay." After drinking it, Xie Fu asked: "Uncle Quan, after the servants in the mansion have left, where are they now?"

Quan Bo said: "They all went to make a living, some went to other people's homes as slaves, and some started small businesses to make a living."

Xie Fu said: "Let everyone come back, it's better to be old."

The downfall of the Xie family did not happen overnight. Those who could persist in staying in the Xie family in the last few years were all loyal. Now that Xie Fu is capable, he cannot forget him.

Uncle Quan said happily when he heard the words: "That's good, that's good." When there are more people, it will be lively, and the house will not be deserted.

Xie Fu took out the money: "Our Xie family owes them, ten taels per person, you send them, and those who are willing to come back give another ten taels, double the monthly money."

Quan Bo heard the words: "Second young master, you can't spend money like this even if you have money."

Xie Fu said with a smile: "No matter how much money you have, it's like floating clouds. If you can't take it away, it's important that everyone is happy. Uh... those who have signed the contract, you spend money to manage and release them."

Quan Bo reminded: "There are still some who have already sold themselves."

There are living contracts and dead contracts. A living contract is to work for the master's family, and a dead contract is to sell one's body. It belongs to the property of the master's family and is protected by the law. The master even has the power of life and death.

Xie Fu said: "Redemption! Maybe I can't figure it out, I will come forward again."
