The daughter of the splendid good fortune is respected

Chapter 396

Xiao Bozong sneered again and again, "Second daughter-in-law, according to what you said, you betrayed the Xiao family, and the so-called preservation of the Xiao family's east mansion is for the sake of the entire Xiao family?"

Mrs. Xie said firmly: "Master, my daughter-in-law did not betray the Xiao family. My daughter-in-law belongs to the Xiao family, and her death is a ghost of the Xiao family. The purpose of my daughter-in-law's doing things is for the good of the Xiao family. In the eyes of the daughter-in-law, it is indeed for the sake of the entire Xiao family. Hello home. I also ask the old man to be safe."

"Fulfillment? The foundation of the Xiao family is gone, the entire Xiao family is about to collapse, and the old man has become a sinner of the Xiao family. You still dare to make the old man perfect. Mrs. Xie, you pretend to be the daughter-in-law of the Xiao family. The Xiao family is because of With a selfish person like you, that's why you have come to this point." Xiao Bozong was heartbroken, "My ancestors, I, Xiao Bozong, are the sinners of the Xiao family."

Regardless of Xiao Bozong's clamor, Mrs. Xie raised her head and said boldly: "My daughter-in-law would not agree with what the old man said. The Xiao family has fallen into the current state, and it has nothing to do with our East Mansion. It's all because the West Mansion has a big heart and wants to Betting on both sides, both sides of the palace and the court want to take advantage. How can there be such a good thing in this world. Now that the retribution is coming, the prince will not tolerate this kind of behavior. All this is the responsibility of the West Palace. Suffer losses along with it."

"Besides, what my daughter-in-law said before is the truth. Since the East Mansion and the West Mansion cannot be preserved completely, then some of them will be preserved. Our East Mansion did not do anything to betray the Wang Mansion, and the Wang Mansion will naturally be lenient towards our East Mansion. In this way, in the future Dongfu represents the Xiao family. As long as Dongfu is in one day, the Xiao family will not be considered defeated. Old man, times have changed, and the situation in Zhongzhou is not what it was ten years ago. Please help Dongfu to gain a firm foothold. As for West Mansion, after the West Mansion fishes out the person, there will be someone in the West Mansion to decide."

The old lady Gongsun echoed and said: "Master, what your daughter-in-law said is right. We are unable to preserve the East and West mansions. The Wang mansion has made it clear that it wants to clean up the West mansion. At this time, the East mansion is looking for death by rushing up. Instead of the entire Xiao family collapsing , it is better to preserve the East Mansion with all your heart, and save a little blood and hope for the entire Xiao family. The old man can't be confused. The Xiao family's East Mansion family, with hundreds of people, can be all in the old man's thought. Could the old man want to sacrifice a few for the West Mansion? Can the whole family join in? You can be ruthless, but the old man can't. Those are the sons and grandchildren of the old man. Old man, don't be seduced by the girls of the West Mansion."

Xiao Bozong sneered, "So you sold out the Xiao family and Xifu with peace of mind, and colluded with the Fan family to carve up the property of the Xiao family, right?"

Mrs. Xie shook her head again and again, "The old man clearly learned that his daughter-in-law would not have the guts to betray the Xiao family. As for dividing up the property, can the old man just sit and watch the Xiao family's property fall into the hands of foreigners? Old man, we What Dongfu is doing first is to work hard to preserve the Xiao family's property, so that the Xiao family's property will continue to be named Xiao. Old man, is it wrong to do so?"

Xiao Bozong felt very tired, unprecedentedly tired.Waved his hand, "Forget it, you are right no matter what. You are yours, the old man doesn't care about you, and I can't control you. But you don't care about what the old man wants to do. The old man will go to the government office with Ming Zhen early in the morning to find people. You If you are only willing to give 2 taels of silver, then the old man will potter out his own private silver. We are all a family, and this old man can't be so cold-blooded and ruthless as you."

"I don't agree." The old lady Gongsun stood up, "The old man's private house money is to be left to Mao Tong and Mao Sen brothers. The grandchildren below are still counting on the old man's money. The old man took out the money, To make up for such a matter, what does the old man think of the Dongfu family?"

Xiao Bozong roared, "Maotong is still in prison, don't you worry, mother?"

"At Maotong, 2 taels is enough. In short, I don't agree with the old man's private money."

Xiao Bozong was very disappointed, "Sure enough, you have an agreement with the Yamen. Old woman, I tell you that the money is in my name, and you can't control how I spend the money. Hmph." Xiao Bozong shook his sleeves and left in extreme annoyance.

The old lady Gongsun asked Xie eagerly, "Second daughter-in-law, the old man is determined to sacrifice for the Xiao family. What do you think should be done?"

Xie frowned, "Old lady, I don't know how many people are under the old man's name?"

The old lady Gongsun was unprepared, and said directly: "At least there is a hundred thousand taels."

With so many, Xie Shi was taken aback.Xiao Bozong is an old dude, even if he went to Qingyun Temple, the expenses are not small at all.With Xiao Bozong's spending speed, he didn't expect to have nearly 10 taels of private house.Xie Shi pursed her lips, her eyes complicated.

The old lady Gongsun asked impatiently: "Second daughter-in-law, hurry up and find a way out. You must not let the old man throw this money into the bottomless pit of Xifu."

"Old lady, my daughter-in-law asked the kitchen to prepare a few dishes that the old man likes to eat. When the old lady goes to visit the old man later, she will apologize to the old man and have a drink with the old man." Xie said with a smile.

The old lady Gongsun said with a straight face, "No, what bad idea do you have in mind, do you think that a table of wine and food can impress the old man? You are so stupid. Think about it again."

"The old lady misunderstood the daughter-in-law. The daughter-in-law didn't mean to make an apology, nor did she want the old lady to accompany the old man to drink and eat. Didn't the old lady tell the daughter-in-law to find a way to stop the old man? The daughter-in-law thought, if the old man was ill tomorrow morning and couldn't get up Bed, in this way, the old man can't go to the yamen with Xiao Mingzhen, and he can't hand over the money from the private house to Xifu." Xie said with a smile.

The old lady Gongsun's fingers trembled, "You mean the one in the old man's food and drink?"

Mrs. Xie nodded slightly, "It's just some common laxatives, and it will be fine after a few days. Don't worry, the old lady, the daughter-in-law will take care of the amount and will never do anything reckless. The old man just feels uncomfortable for a few days."

The old lady Gongsun thought and thought, and finally nodded, "Okay, I will do as you want. But you must promise that you are not allowed to mess around. If you hurt the old man's body, the old man will not spare you."

Xie smiled and said: "Don't worry, old lady, my daughter-in-law knows how to do it well, and she will definitely not make a mistake."

At dawn the next day, Xiao Mingzhen got up, washed up, changed into clean clothes, and counted the silver taels in the warehouse.Cash plus bank notes and 2 taels from Dongfu, totaling more than 15 taels.With these 15 taels, it must be able to meet the government's requirements.Although he knew that the government was taking the opportunity to make money, he had to admit it.

Xiao Mingzhen went to bid farewell to Mrs. Xiao, and at the same time sent someone to invite Xiao Bozong to the East Mansion.
