Chapter 316
The old man is actually quite shrewd. However, people say that he is not deaf, blind, or a family member. There are many things that can be fooled as long as they can be fooled.It is difficult for an honest official to decide on housework, and family affairs are the most difficult to handle, so he basically doesn't care about them.

He was not unaware of the little tricks the sons and daughters-in-law in the family were doing behind the scenes.It's just that he feels sorry for these children. After all, these people don't have much ability, and it's really tight to live on that little salary.They are trying to get some money in private, or buying something secretly, which can also be forgiven.

Of course, none of these things were on the surface, so he could pretend to be stupid as a matter of course.But if he said it outright like today, and was asked directly by his grandson, the old man would not be able to keep his head silent.So, as soon as he opened his mouth, he first scolded his wife, and then scolded his son and daughter-in-law.

"I can warn you, everyone, be honest and don't make troubles in the bottom. If you get angry with me, be careful one day and I will separate the family in a hurry. Separate you all and let you live your own life. When the time comes, let's see how capable you are?" The old Duke's words were quite severe.

With the old Duke coming forward, this dispute can be regarded as a temporary cessation.Of course the old lady was not reconciled, but she didn't dare to say anything more.The husband has threatened them with splitting the family. If she still finds trouble, if the old man really takes it seriously and wants to split the family, wouldn't her sons be at a loss?

As for Chu Kang'an, Chu Kangnian, and Chu Kanghua, they also lowered their heads at this moment, not daring to look up at their father and elder brother across the way.As for Chu Kanghe and Chu Kangtai, they didn't have any expressions at all, they were just watching a play.They are bastards, and they are not valued at home. It is good to have them to eat and drink. They don't have much ambition.

Of course, the two of them are also clear in their hearts. This Duke's Mansion may really split up someday.They should also get closer to the big brother, not to mention the advantages of the separation, but to have a better relationship with the brother and sister-in-law. If there is anything in the future, if they can think of mentioning them, it will benefit infinitely.

The whole family has their own thoughts, and it is really not very happy to eat this meal.Chu Kangsheng couldn't help shaking his head and sighing, this year is getting worse and worse.As for Chu Ruifeng, he couldn't stand the food at all, so he just sat there with a cold face and didn't move at all.

The reunion banquet ended soon, and the old man was too old to bear it. In addition, the atmosphere in the room was really dull, so he simply waved his hand and signaled everyone to leave.It was indeed not early, with the sound of firecrackers outside, the new year was here.

Chu Kangsheng's family naturally refused to stay with the Duke's Mansion, and they left immediately after the banquet and returned to the Princess Mansion.There is only a wall between the Princess Mansion and the Duke's Mansion, but I don't know what happened. As soon as he entered the Princess Mansion, Chu Kangsheng felt that the gloom in his heart disappeared in an instant.

"Princess, order someone to get some more food. I really didn't eat well tonight. It's not good to go to bed early on New Year's Eve. Let's eat something later, and then my son and I will have two dishes Chess." Chu Kangsheng couldn't help but said as soon as he entered the room.

The eldest princess also smiled, "Okay, this is easy, I knew that I would not be happy to eat there today, so I have someone prepare something in advance. Wait, I will cook myself and fry two for you two. A small dish, our family will have a lively Chinese New Year." While talking, the Eldest Princess took off the big cloak outside and went to the kitchen to prepare meals.

The eldest princess left with someone, while Chu Kangsheng and Chu Ruifeng went to the study to talk. The father and son sat down respectively, and Chu Ruifeng couldn't help but speak. "Father, are you really going to put up with that person all the time? They are going too far now. On New Year's Eve, they dare to embarrass my mother in front of the big guy. Dad, if you still Hold on, I won't do it anymore."

"Don't think I don't know. The second uncle hired an oiran in Wanhualou some time ago. The oiran claimed to cost 10 taels of silver. The third uncle bought a separate courtyard a few years ago. A woman. I can't stand them taking my money for nothing."

Chu Ruifeng has a lot of eyeliner in the capital, and he can't hide this matter from him at all.If it wasn't for his father's sake, or if it wasn't for the New Year's Eve today, Chu Ruifeng would have made these things clear just now.After all, it's Chinese New Year, if these things are mentioned, I'm afraid that at the Duke's mansion, there will be no need for Chinese New Year, and it will be a pot of porridge.

Chu Kangsheng shook his head, "I guess these things can't be hidden from you, alas, your second uncle and third uncle are ridiculous enough, I already know about this, and I will tell your grandfather in the next year. After all, it is Chinese New Year, you Grandfather has not been in good health these years, let him have a good year."

"After the next year, I will reduce the quota on the other side, so that they are not allowed to go on messing around like this. Our family is looking like flowers blooming in front of us, but who can see what will happen in the future? At this time, your second and third uncles are still there." It's really ridiculous to show off and make enemies without knowing restraint, I will take good care of them."

Now that his father has already said that, it is not easy for Chu Ruifeng to say anything else.There is a tacit understanding between their father and son. Chu Ruifeng believes that although his father doesn't say anything, his father must feel uncomfortable because the people there are so disrespectful to his mother today.Just wait, there's something nice over there.

"By the way, do you have any clues about what I entrusted to you?" The two father and son chatted casually, and Chu Kangsheng suddenly remembered something, and asked casually.

Chu Ruifeng was taken aback for a moment, hesitated a little, not knowing what to say.Knowing son Mo Ruofu, when Chu Ruifeng hesitated, Dingguo Gong could see something different, "Oh? But do you really have a clue?"

Chu Ruifeng nodded, "There are some clues. I have found a person so far, but I am not sure if it is. However, there is something on her body, which is very similar to what my father said. Father, I will investigate and confirm it slowly."

Duke Ding nodded, "Okay, there's no rush, Feng'er, remember, if you confirm her identity, remember to protect her well. If it doesn't work, send her overseas, don't let her have It's dangerous. Our Chu family really felt sorry for her, so it would be nice to make up for it a little bit."

Chu Ruifeng opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but he couldn't speak, and finally he could only sigh, "Father, do you think grandfather has regretted it all these years?"

"If your grandfather doesn't say anything, he must regret it in his heart. It's just that the matter has reached such a point that even if he regrets, there is nothing he can do. Feng'er, what our father and son can do is to make up for it as much as possible. There is no other way out. You Can you understand?"
