After the general's wife was reborn, everyone knelt down and begged her for mercy.

"Madam, what should I do now that the uncle and the second master are not here?" Jiang Cheng asked Ning Ruyan. The Huo family is the head of the family. Now, let alone the head of the family, it is difficult to talk. There is no one to take care of the family. It is not to cause chaos. ?

"What should I do? What can I do? It's not like there is no one in the house, so just do whatever you want." Ning Ruyan glanced at Jiang Cheng, "Besides, my mother is just sick, not dead, and Yuan Nanny has been following my mother for so long and is familiar with her methods. Let Nanny Yuan take care of the affairs of the house for the time being, and wait until the uncle comes back to talk about everything."

Jiang Cheng smiled bitterly, and hurriedly sent people to notify the two aunts in the house and Jiang Mingzhu. In addition, he also had people rush to notify Jiang Bonian.

The first ones to arrive were naturally Jiang Changgong's two aunts. Aunt Zhao took the lead, followed by Aunt Sun, and behind them were Liniang and the youngest concubine Jiang Mingyue.

It is said that Aunt Sun was the sister of one of Jiang Changgong's subordinates. After the subordinate died in the battle, he became an orphan, and was then taken back to the general's mansion by him. Although she was not much loved, she was not treated badly. Later, Aunt Sun gave birth to a child. Daughter Jiang Mingyue is only eleven years old now. However, the mother and daughter are very low-key and will not leave their yard unless someone calls them.

Therefore, in the more than half a year since her marriage, Ning Ruyan has not seen her a few times.

After everyone went to greet Huo and said a few words, they all gathered around Ning Ruyan and asked her if she wanted to take over the Jiang family.

"The marriage between me and the uncle is in name only, and it is not appropriate to take over." Ning Ruyan shook her head, "Let's wait until the uncle comes back to discuss everything. For now, we will let Aunt Yuan work hard for the next few days."

Everyone also knew that this was the only way to go.

Ning Ruyan stayed and said a few words with Huo, and then Shi Shiran left in the eyes of the other party's resentful eyes.

A stroke means that the behavior is uncontrolled, but the brain is still clear.

After coming out of Shoukangyuan, Ning Ruyan couldn't help but smile thinking about the look in Huo's eyes just now that she almost wanted to eat her. She just told her that her dowry had been stolen a long time ago, but when she was leaving, she would definitely let her The Jiang family paid the compensation, but as a result, the other party couldn't bear it anymore and peed when she got excited. If it wasn't too smelly, she would have said a few more words.

The next person she had to deal with was Jiang Bonian, but she couldn't let him die. After all, the child in her belly still needed a father.

As soon as Ning Ruyan returned to Wutong Courtyard, she came back to deliver the news despite the mulberry leaves over there. Jiang Mingzhu came, hugged her mother and cried for a while, and then directly took away the power of the head of the family. Mammy would not give it, but Jiang Mingzhu directly asked people to drive her out of the Jiang family.

"I found her as soon as possible and sent her to Banxia."

"Very good." Ning Ruyan nodded. The Jiang family had to suffer without her money to support them. Therefore, she was really a great grievance in her previous life.

After Jiang Mingzhu got the master's medicine key token, she went to the accounting room first. However, when she saw the numbers on the account, she was stunned. The Jiang family only had two hundred taels of silver left in the account. ,How can this be?

But Mr. Accountant couldn't do anything. He also said that if he didn't believe it, he could check the account book.

"Where do I have time to check the account books?" Jiang Mingzhu was furious, "I think I was embezzled by you."

"You are so deceptive." Mr. Accountant is not a servant of the Jiang family. He is hired from outside. He works for a monthly salary and is considered a scholar. So, how can he be slandered like this? He immediately gave up the job and said, "In that case, you should hire someone else. If you think I have been embezzled, you can report it to the official." After that, he left directly.

Jiang Mingzhu was a little dumbfounded, but she refused to admit her mistake and only passed the responsibility to Jiang Cheng.

Jiang Cheng felt extremely tired, but after living here for many years, he was still used to having children with the master's surname. He could not give up his choice of children and could only hope that Jiang Bonian would come back soon. Jiang Bonian also encountered a problem at this time. Unexpectedly, when he arrived at his ancestral home, he found that the wooden bridge leading to the village was broken. It was said that it was broken by a heavy rain five days ago. The local government kept asking him because he had no money. It was delayed and not repaired, and the villagers couldn't repair it either.

If Jiang Bonian wanted to reach the location of his ancestral tomb smoothly, he had to either build a bridge or take a detour. Building the bridge would take two days, but it would cost 500 taels of silver, while the detour would require an extra three or four days of travel.

"Brother, what should I do?" Jiang Bowen could only look at Jiang Bonian.

"A detour." Jiang Bonian made a choice directly, "But send someone to notify the local county government to build a bridge, otherwise I will help him." He was also short of money.

Although the county government agreed to repair the bridge, it took time to find workers, so they had to take a detour on their return trip, which was delayed for six or seven days.

But by the time he got home, half a month had passed.

The last time Jiang Bowen went back to set up a tomb for Jiang Bonian, it only took less than ten days because he was not in a hurry.

"Where is the person?" However, when Jiang Bonian arrived at the door and dismounted, he found that there was no one in the concierge, so he could only shout.

"Uncle, you are finally back." Jiang Cheng hurriedly ran out. He lost a lot of weight. The moment he saw Jiang Bonian, tears fell down.

"Where are the people at home? What happened in the past few days?"

Jiang Cheng sighed and told what happened in the past half month.

After the Huo family fell, they originally wanted to let Aunt Yuan take charge of the house temporarily until Jiang Bonian came back. However, Jiang Mingzhu snatched the power of the head of the house as soon as she came back, and then disliked the lack of money in the house. Not only did she drive away Aunt Yuan, she also He left the accounting office in anger, and later said that in order to save money, he sold many of his servants. Now there are only seven or eight people left in the house.

"Where is Jiang Mingzhu?"

"Just the day before yesterday, my aunt discovered that there was really no money in the house, so she went to the warehouse to get a big bag of things, then left, and she hasn't come back yet."

Jiang Bonian couldn't help but close his eyes: "I know." Then he strode to Shoukangyuan.

Jiang Bowen, who was behind, also hurriedly followed.

Huo's mouth and eyes are now crooked. When he wants to speak, he drools a lot when he opens his mouth, so he doesn't speak. However, the moment he sees his son, he is still excited and opens his mouth to say something.

"Mom, why are you..." Jiang Bonian's eyes turned red and he knelt down directly, "The child is unfilial."

"Er... Ning... Ning..." Huo shook his head and kept mumbling a few words. (End of chapter)
