Chapter 395

"Third brother's words are too foreign. By the way, what's the situation with Song Ziqiu now?"

Xiao Mingzhen was confused, "Sister Mingyu, what are you asking Song Ziqiu for?"

Xiao Mingyu shook his head and said with a smile: "Third brother, I just asked casually. The eldest brother has been in prison for several days now, and Song Ziqiu must have got the news. Now that my sister-in-law is pregnant again, I can't be distracted, I am just a little worried .What are you worried about? Forget it. I can’t tell. Third Brother, let’s get busy first.”

Xiao Mingzhen looked at Xiao Mingyu's embarrassed face, maybe he really couldn't explain it clearly, and Xiao Mingzhen didn't pursue the matter any longer, "Sister Mingyu, take good care of your health, I'll get busy right now. We men are the ones out there, you alone It’s enough for the girl to take good care of her body. I’ll take care of everything else.”

"What the third brother said is that I really can't take care of the outside affairs anymore, and I don't have the ability to take care of it."

After sending Xiao Mingzhen away, Xiao Mingyu went back to the house to lie down and recuperate.Being kidnapped once still brought some sequelae to Xiao Mingyu.But she didn't tell anyone, she wanted to try to solve this little problem by herself first.I really can't figure it out.

The news that Xiao Mingzhen got from Xiao Mingyu did not spread.First, go to Dong Mansion to meet Xiao Bozong.

Xiao Bozong sighed, "Ming Zhen, this old man is incompetent."

"What does the uncle mean by this? Could it be that the uncle watched the Xiao family collapse but didn't ask?"

Shame flashed across Xiao Bozong's eyes, "Mingzhen, you are going to hunt for people, and the old man will accompany you on this trip. Don't worry, our Dongfu will not shirk the responsibility that should be borne by our Dongfu."

"If you have my uncle's words, I don't worry. There is still a gap in the silver tael, but it will be fine until tomorrow. Tomorrow morning, I will ask my uncle to go to the Yamen with me to find people."

"Okay, the old man will accompany you."

Xiao Mingzhen resigned from Xiao Bozong, and went to the accounting office to reconcile the accounts and take inventory of the treasury silver.

Xiao Bozong is in a bad mood here.When he came to the old lady Gongsun's room, Mrs. Xie was also there, Xiao Bozong glanced at the two of them indifferently, "Have you considered it?"

Mrs. Xie glanced at Mrs. Gongsun and gave Mrs. Gongsun a hint.The old lady Gongsun immediately stood up and said, "Old man, the East Mansion's contribution of 2 taels of silver is the utmost benevolence. There must be no more."

Xiao Bozong snorted coldly, and the old lady Gongsun shivered.Mrs. Xie held the old lady Gongsun's hand, which calmed her down.Xiao Bozong asked: "Second daughter-in-law, what do you say?"

Mrs. Xie looked timid, "Returning to the old man, the daughter-in-law is a junior, so naturally she listened to the old lady. The old lady said that giving 2 taels is the best of benevolence, so it must be true."

Xiao Bozong was furious, "Second daughter-in-law, don't use the old lady as a shield. As an old man, don't you know what you have done all these years? The old man came to ask you, what happened to you and the second child? Where is the Fan family, you should also tell the old man clearly."

"Explain what, old man, are you confused?" the old lady Gongsun shouted dissatisfied.

Mrs. Xie hurriedly comforted her, and then said: "Old man, my daughter-in-law and my husband are all responsible people, so naturally everything is done according to the rules. As for the matter of the Fan family, our Dongfu wants to be in-laws with the Fan family. The daughter-in-law told the old man about this as early as the end of last year. At that time, the old man didn't object. Now that the marriage has been settled, the old man asked his daughter-in-law to make it clear. "

Speaking of this, Mrs. Xie made an expression that was about to cry, "The old man is embarrassing his daughter-in-law, what should the daughter-in-law say to satisfy the old man, please show me."

"Second daughter-in-law, don't try to play dumb in front of the old man. The old man came to ask you, this time the Wangfu seized the mine of Xiao's family, and the Fan family got involved again. How did you come to an agreement with the Fan family? How much benefit will the palace give you?" Xiao Bozong straightened up the matter to avoid Xie's messing around.

Mrs. Xie had a wronged expression on her face, "My daughter-in-law doesn't understand what the old man said. I would like to ask whose slander the old man listened to, and even accused his daughter-in-law without any evidence. The daughter-in-law is suffering. The daughter-in-law has no idea what the agreement is. Since After the accident, my daughter-in-law couldn't eat or sleep well these days, so she was worried that our Xiao family would collapse. Now the old man came to accuse his daughter-in-law, and said that her daughter-in-law was in collusion with outsiders. Old man, why don't you kill your daughter-in-law, she has never done it It will never be admitted."

"You are presumptuous." Xiao Bozong angrily reprimanded.

"Old man, are you really going to force the second daughter-in-law to death? The old man hasn't come home for ten years, and he will interrogate one and the other as soon as he comes back. I want to ask the old man whether the people in the West Mansion are from the old man's blood, or our East Mansion. Is the person in the old man's blood? The old man is so focused on the west mansion, why don't you think about our east mansion. Old man, that's not how you turn your elbows outward." The old lady Gongsun roared.

Xiao Bozong frowned, "East Mansion and West Mansion are one family, what are you doing so clearly?"

"I don't agree with this. The East Mansion is the East Mansion, and the West Mansion is the West Mansion." The old lady Gongsun refused to budge, "When the father-in-law was still there, he made the decision to separate the family. The Grange shop and everything else should be divided. Our surname is Xiao, but our East Mansion and West Mansion are indeed two families. Since they are two families, there is a difference of closeness. As soon as the old man comes back, he will interrogate this and that, old man What kind of heart do you have? Could it be that for the sake of the West Mansion, are you willing to bring down the East Mansion? Is Mao Tong your son, is the second daughter-in-law your daughter-in-law? Are the boys and girls at home your grandchildren? There is no distinction between right and wrong, I will leave my words here today, instead of helping the West Mansion to get ahead here, the old man might as well go back to your Qingyun temple. In this way, everyone should be quiet." Mrs. Gongsun's words were too harsh.

Xiao Bozong was pissed off, "You guys are very nice, I haven't come home for many years, and now this family has no place for me to stand on. It's against you."

"Don't be angry, old man. The old lady said those words because she cares about the future of our Dongfu. Please forgive me." Mrs. Xie simply knelt down to Xiao Bozong, "Old man, the whole family of Dongfu, Not only our second-bedroom family, but also the third-bedroom family, all rely on the annual income to live. Now the palace is going to deal with our Xiao family and seized our Xiao family's minerals. It is clear that it is to make our Xiao family look good. Can the daughter-in-law just sit there Seeing that the Xiao family is doomed? The daughter-in-law is not capable, but as long as there is a possibility, the daughter-in-law will fight for the Xiao family. If she can fight for a little bit, the old man thinks about it carefully. family, that is absolutely impossible. It is better to give up a part and keep a part. In this way, the Xiao family still has hope of turning around, so that the Xiao family can have a future."
