sturdy landlady

Chapter 86
"Report to the old man, that group of people said that they would only let the old man go after 20 taels of silver." The steward kneeling on his head said hastily.

Ye Hongfeng leaned back in the chair a little slumped when he heard the words, the wrinkles on his face deepened.

At this juncture, where should he go to collect 20 taels of silver?

"Old man, you have to think of a way, otherwise Xiuhe will die." The old lady Tian said anxiously.

"Father, if the money is not enough, I can sell all my dowry, and I must rescue Xiuhe." Yang also said hastily.

"That's a long way off. For now, the only way is to sell the house in the capital." Ye Hongfeng sighed.

"But old man, didn't you say...that the house in the capital should be left to Tao Ge and Li Sheng, their mother and daughter?" Tian said hastily.

The daughter and granddaughter were abandoned by the Gu family and rushed to the northwest. Her husband said that the house in the capital would be given to the daughter and granddaughter, and they would be brought back to the capital from the northwest.

"It's come to this juncture, is mother still partial to her daughter and disregarding your only son?" Yang couldn't bear it anymore, and asked with red eyes.

"I don't mean that. If you want to sell it, sell it. The most important thing is to save and repair." Tian looked at his daughter-in-law and said with a sigh.

"Sell the house in the capital first. After this hurdle has passed, the Ye family has improved and made money. Then I will buy a house for Tao Ge and Li Sheng." Ye Hongfeng said in a deep voice.

"En." Tian nodded quickly.

"It's just that... after selling the house in the capital, it may not be enough to collect so much money." Ye Hongfeng said in a low voice.

"Isn't it because my father gave Taoge and their mother and daughter 10 taels of silver before, I heard... Taoge spent more than 60 taels of silver to buy Suzaku fruit for Li Sheng, and Li Sheng has become useless, Tao Ge still doesn't give up, it's a waste of money, now we're hurting us and can't save Xiuhe, it's not enough for them to kill my son, do they still want to kill my husband?" The more Yang said, the more excited she became, she couldn't help standing up and shouting.

"What are you talking about? Why did they kill Ding'an? It was all done by those wolf-hearted members of the Gu family. You also said that they are not to blame." Tian said with red eyes.

"I said I don't blame them, but if it wasn't for them, how could my son be killed by the Gu family? After all, their mother and daughter are also the Gu family, and the Gu family deserves to die." Yang yelled.

"You..." After hearing what his daughter-in-law said, Tian's face turned pale with anger, and he couldn't say a word.

Losing her grandson, she was heartbroken and heartbroken. When she heard her daughter-in-law blamed her daughter and granddaughter, she felt even more uncomfortable, but she couldn't bear to criticize her daughter-in-law Yang.

As the head of the family, Ye Hongfeng certainly couldn't watch his wife and daughter-in-law quarrel. He slammed the table and was about to say something when he saw Gu Xiaoxiao walking in from the outside.

Gu Xiaoxiao couldn't bear it any longer. She was also afraid that her grandmother and aunt would quarrel. After all... for the death of her cousin Ye Ding'an, she and her mother were indeed unshirkable.

"Pear...Lisheng...." Ye Hongfeng thought he was getting old and his eyes were blurred, but he took a closer look and found that it was really his precious granddaughter Gu Lisheng.

"Li Sheng..." Tian Shi also saw Gu Xiaoxiao, and quickly ran up to hold her hand.

Gu Xiaoxiao watched her grandmother look at her with tears in her eyes, and her nose couldn't help but feel sour.

"Children, haven't you been driven to the northwest? Why are you here?" Tian took Gu Xiaoxiao's hand and said with a distressed expression: "I've lost weight, I must have suffered a lot."

Yang Shi who was on the side was greatly stimulated after seeing it, and said in a deep voice: "Why did she come? It's not because she couldn't survive in the northwest, so she came to join our Ye family, but we are also precarious now, we can't take care of ourselves, Li Sheng, don't blame my aunt for saying something mean, you really shouldn't have come."

Gu Xiaoxiao knew that because of the death of her cousin Ye Ding'an, her aunt hated her, and it was reasonable to speak harshly now, she could and must bear it.

"Auntie... I'm sorry!" Gu Xiaoxiao walked up to Mrs. Yang, took a deep breath and said, planning to kneel down and admit her mistake.

Cousin has always died because of her, even though she is also a victim, she has an inescapable responsibility.

"What are you doing? I can't bear it." Seeing that she was about to kneel, Yang pulled her up and ran out with red eyes.

"Li Sheng, don't blame your eldest aunt, she was such a good person in the past, it was all because of the Gu family's crimes that killed Ding'an, she couldn't accept Ding'an's death, so her temperament changed drastically." Tian said with tears.

"Well, I understand that we are sorry for the eldest aunt, and also for the grandfather and grandmother." Gu Xiaoxiao nodded.

"The matter has come to this, what's the use of blaming you? What's more, your mother and daughter were also framed by the Gu family. If you want to blame, you can blame my grandfather. I was blind. I married your mother into the Gu family, which is why we are in such a bleak situation. "Ye Hongfeng said with a sigh.

"Old man, don't talk about it. When Li Sheng's father was still alive, he didn't apologize to us at all. It's the Gu family who are too hateful." Tian said with a sigh.

Ye Hongfeng smiled wryly when he heard the words. The son-in-law was very kind to them, and he didn't say anything to his daughter. It's a pity that such an upright man died young.

What a teaser God is, if possible, why not send his half-footed old guy into the coffin to the underworld, insisting on taking the life of his son-in-law?

It can be said that Gu Weixun's death was a catastrophe for Gu Xiaoxiao's mother and daughter, and it was also a catastrophe for the entire Ye family.

"Grandfather, I just heard you talking about the eldest uncle outside. What happened to him? What does it mean to release him after asking for 20 taels of silver?" Gu Xiaoxiao asked worriedly.

After Ye Hongfeng and Tian's glanced at each other, the two had a tacit understanding and chose to hide it from Gu Xiaoxiao. He coughed lightly and said, "It's just some small things. You don't have to worry about it, and don't care about what your aunt said before. We The Ye family has encountered some troubles recently, but it’s not a problem to support the whole family. Where’s your mother? Why don’t you see her? From now on, you mother and daughter will stay with us in the Ye family and live together.”

"Mother didn't come, she's still at Zhuangzi in the northwest." Gu Xiaoxiao shook her head and said.

"She didn't come...you mean...you came alone?" Tian looked at her granddaughter in shock.

"Yes!" Gu Xiaoxiao nodded slightly.

"How is this possible? Weiyang County is nearly two thousand miles away from our Shuofang County. How did you come here alone?" Ye Hongfeng was also stunned.

"Grandfather, grandmother, I've grown up, I'm not the kid I used to be, I'll be old as soon as the new year is over, it's nothing to go out alone, mother, she misses you very much, but because... because of the death of her cousin, she is very sad Guilt, dare not come back." Gu Xiaoxiao said with a sad face.
