The daughter of the splendid good fortune is respected

Chapter 400 The old lady is paralyzed (1)
"In this case, it's useless to worry about it. You should take care of your injuries. It's better than anything else. As for the Xiao family, even if it really falls, it's not a matter of a day or two. If you are worried about affecting your marriage, It doesn’t have to be like that.”

Xiao Mingyu laughed, "I'm not worried about affecting my marriage. Fourth sister, just wait and see, once the Xiao family's decline is unstoppable, then a lot of nasty things will happen to our Xiao family. Wait for the old man and the others to come back Well, when the matter becomes clear, there will probably be trouble. If the Dongfu takes the opportunity to make trouble, hmph, I suspect that the old man will be so angry that he will lie on the bed. At that time, our fifth room will not be able to stay out of the matter. After all, the fifth room is also a member of the Xiao family The old lady had an accident with the old man, and the eldest, fourth, and fifth families all have to bear the responsibility of being filial to their elders. Hey, think about these things, don't you feel annoyed, fourth sister?"

"Of course I'm irritable. But you start to be irritable before things happen. You're asking for trouble. If you want me to say, it's not too late for you to worry about these things after things happen. You just think too much. I don't know what you think in your head, but you always think ahead of everyone. In front of you, I really become a stupid woman." Xiao Mingxuan said.

Xiao Mingyu joked, "As long as Chai Zixiu likes it, it doesn't matter to be a stupid woman."

"You still dare to laugh at me, see if I don't deal with you."

"Haha...fourth sister, please forgive me."

When it was almost dark, Xiao Mingzhen and the others finally came back.

Xiao Mingyu went to the two to greet her despite her discomfort.But he only saw Xiao Minghui following behind Xiao Mingzhen.Both Xiao Maoheng and Xiao Maoyang looked angry and a little scared.As for Xiao Mingzhen, he had a gloomy face, unable to distinguish his thoughts.Looking at Xiao Minghui again, his face was haggard, and he had lost a lot of weight in just a few days.His clothes were dirty, and he obviously had a hard time in prison for a few days.

Xiao Mingyu didn't understand, and asked Xiao Mingzhen with his eyes what was going on.

Xiao Mingzhen frowned slightly, "Only the eldest brother and the second uncle came back. The second uncle returned to the East Mansion first. The government refused to release the old man. I will tell the old lady about the details later."

Xiao Mingyu nodded, knowing something was wrong.

Xiao Minghui said to everyone: "I'll go back and wash first, and I'll be there in a while."

"Msister." Lu Si got the news and rushed over, and seeing Xiao Minghui's mess and dirt, he burst into tears, "Msister has suffered, and I have always been worried about his safety."

Xiao Minghui nodded slightly, without any superfluous expression, "Okay, let's go. There are people coming and going here, it's not good for us to block the road."

"Okay, mother is waiting for my husband and third brother, let's go over quickly. I'm afraid mother is in a hurry."

Xiao Mingzhen bid farewell to Xiao Maoheng and Xiao Maoyang, "Fourth Uncle, Fifth Uncle, let's go back to rest for a while, and meet at the old lady's place later."

After going back separately, Xiao Mingyu and Xiao Maoyang walked together, "Father has worked hard today."

Xiao Maoyang sighed, "What's the hard work? I didn't help my father at all when I went out today. I almost offended the people in the yamen because of me. That's all, go back. For my father, the more you live, the more you live. When I go back, I can't even compare to you, a little girl."

Xiao Mingyu smiled awkwardly, "Father said this, but he killed his daughter. My daughter can be what she is today because of her father's good teaching. If it weren't for her father's care and teaching, how could my daughter have what she is today."

Xiao Maoyang's face brightened a little, "Okay, let's not talk about this, go back to rest first, and see the old lady later. If the old lady knows that the old man has not come back, I don't know what she will say."

After returning to the fifth room, Han shi asked for warmth, and knowing that Mr. Xiao hadn't come back, Han knew that things were going to be bad.

Xiao Mingyu asked in a low voice: "Father, do you have any reason why the government won't let him go?"

Xiao Maoyang snorted coldly, angry and disdainful at the same time, "There is no other reason. It is nothing more than dislike that the money given by our Xiao family is too little, and they don't like it, so they deliberately make things difficult for our Xiao family. There is no reason for this, it is simply There's no reason for that."

Mrs. Han exclaimed, "There are more than one hundred thousand taels, but the government thinks it's too little? Well, what to do with this. The government doesn't have much silver left."

"They are willing to force the Xiao family to go bankrupt. I can see that all the charges are false, and the only purpose is to make the Xiao family spit out money. The magistrate of the broken family and the prefect of the house of the family are really right. Wrong. Now I have seen the darkness in the yamen. If I was still in the capital, I would definitely read them a book. If I let them alone, I would not be Xiao Maoyang."

Xiao Maoyang was furious, and Mrs. Han hurriedly persuaded her, "Master, calm down. Master, we are in Zhongzhou now, and Zhongzhou is managed by the Wangfu. After all, it is the Wangfu who dislikes our Xiao family. This is to borrow I will teach our Xiao family a lesson by chance. The most important thing now is that the master should change his clothes as soon as possible, which is just a bad luck for the yamen. I will go to the old lady's place later, explain the matter clearly, and we can all come together to think of a way to save people."

Xiao Mingyu suddenly asked: "Father, does father know exactly how much property our Xiao Family West Mansion has?"

Xiao Maoyang looked confused, how could he care about such things.

Han scolded angrily, "Ming Yu, what nonsense are you talking about?"

Xiao Mingyu said: "Mother, things have come to this point, it's useless to lie to one's ears and steal the bell. The Yamen will only release people if they ask for money, and this time it won't be enough to send 20 to 30. Maybe 40 to [-] may not be enough to satisfy those People's appetite. Knowing how many properties we have in the West of the Xiao family, we can roughly estimate a value, and know how far we can compromise and what step we can achieve. And knowing these things early is good for the future Make arrangements for the matter. Maybe the government has counted our Xiao family's property there, and they have found out the Achilles heel of our Xiao family and determined how much money our Xiao family has. If they don't give them a satisfactory amount, they will Will not let people go."

Han Shi naturally understands this truth, but now that Xiao Maoyang is angry, Xiao Mingyu's words at this time are purely adding fuel to the fire.

Xiao Maoyang slapped the table angrily, "Ming Yu's words make sense. Judging by the appearance of the pusher today, it is probably true what Ming Yu said. They have already figured out our Xiao family's property. On the contrary, we who are the Xiao family It is a great shame and humiliation for people who are not as clear as outsiders."

Han stared at Xiao Mingyu, it was really troublesome.Look, Xiao Maoyang is really crazy.I don't know when I can calm down.

Xiao Mingyu smiled wryly, and secretly touched his nose.Xiao Maoyang's reaction was too excited.

Xiao Maoyang walked up and down the room, cursing the government for its darkness, shamelessness, lowliness, and depravity.In short, Xiao Maoyang would be angry, and Xiao Maoyang dared to scold anything.No matter how much Han tried to persuade her, she couldn't persuade her.I can only smile wryly.He glared at Xiao Mingyu fiercely again, let's see, what to do now.
