Zhang was looking at the wrong expression of the lotus leaf, and muttered in his heart.

Xuan Wenxin has actually been thinking about lotus leaves recently, but he is too tired to fight with Xuanwen Bao in the town, and he is not in the mood to come back recently.

Looking at the lotus leaf, there was something wrong, and casually asked Xuan Wencheng: "What's wrong with the little third sister-in-law?"

Xuan Wencheng shook his head: "I don't know, it's okay to toss for a day, don't bother, let's drink." ”

Old Man Xuan took this brother to chat, and with a little wine, he chatted all over the world, and when it came to going to the capital, the atmosphere in the house was not as solemn as just now.

It's just that Ma is a little confused, what's going on with these three sons? It seems that this matter has taken a turn for the better?

After eating, Old Man Xuan looked at Shichen: "It's okay, you should go back to the town and go back to the town, I also asked a few old friends to talk, I'm going out." ”

Old Man Xuan doesn't seem to have anything to do, he didn't bother to take care of anything before, he was too lazy to take care of things, but now it's better for them to carry themselves behind their backs, anyway, they have something to rely on, they have an eldest son, what are you afraid of.

Ma also hoped that Old Man Xuan would leave, so he could ask them what was going on in the past few days and their changes.

So he said to Old Man Xuan: "You go out and be careful, the thing in your hand is valuable." ”

Old Man Xuan should go out with the white jade ball.

Ma asked Zhang and Li Qiaolian to pack up their things, and then let them go out and close the door, which was obviously behind their backs, but there was one thing Ma didn't know, that is, Zhang and Li Qiaolian had a tacit understanding at this time, and they didn't need to speak, they both listened at the door.

Seeing that there were no outsiders in the house, Ma asked Xuan Wenxin in a low voice: "Fourth, you know these things best, what do you say?"

"Mother, I went to the place where the jade ball was made early in the morning today, and took back the pair of fake ones for three taels of silver, and when I came back, didn't I change the one in my father's hand? "Xuan Wenxin remembers these things very well.

Xuan Wencheng has always been with Xuan Wenxin, so he also nodded: "That's right." ”

Xuan Wenbao didn't want to startle them so much at this time, lest he doubt them if he said something now, they should have time to deal with the aftermath, so they pretended not to know, and when they left later, they would leave later and talk to Ma.

Ma Shi frowned: "It's still not right, then this thing hasn't passed through other people's hands? Could it be that it's still Xuan Miao'er? Your father goes to their house every day." ”

Xuan Wencheng was not sure: "But it will take time for this jade ball to be ordered, have they already prepared it?"

Xuan Wenxin sighed: "I didn't expect Xuan Miao'er to play this hand, but we don't have any evidence?"

Xuan Wenbao listened to them blame Xuan Miao'er for things, and sneered in his heart, you just swallowed it privately, and now you want to divert my attention, how is it possible?

Ma Shi is wilting again at this time, just now I thought it was a little better, but now I look at it and it's over: "Yes, we don't have this financial life, the fourth and fifth, how is your business during this time?"

In fact, the two of them are fighting to the death now, this business is really not good, but the two of them can't say this, they both say it's very good.

Ma Shi nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, this time we are unlucky, you sold the fake one, and we will lose less silver, anyway, your father often goes over there, and we will have a chance in the future." ”

Ma has thought about it now, and next time Old Man Xuan takes something of value back, he will sell it to him directly. If you are ruthless this time, what else will you do to fake, just let Xuan Wencheng go to the town to sell it, and buy the shop in exchange for a silver ticket, why bother with a bamboo basket to draw water?

Xuanwen letter responded: "I know my mother, then I'll go back with the fifth child." ”

Xuan Wenbao said with a smile: "Fourth brother, you go back first, it's rare for me to come back to the village, this is the time when every family has vegetables in the village, I'll buy some vegetables and go back, it's much cheaper than in the town, and tomorrow's bun stuffing will save some silver." ”

This Ma also agreed: "What the fifth brother said is, then the fourth one, you go back first, it's not a matter if you are all in such a big shop over there." ”

Xuan Wenxin has no doubts about this, and he has an old customer who has made an appointment this time, and he is also in a hurry to go back: "Then I'll go back first." ”

Xuan Wencheng didn't catch anything, and he was sleepy at this time: "Then I'll go back to the house, and I'll repair the farm tools." ”

This is all gone, and the Zhang family and Li Qiaolian have also listened to it, so they are busy and go.

Xuan Wenbao pretended to go back to his room to find a basket, and when he was done, he called Ma to his room and closed the door.

Then he pulled Ma Shi to sit on the kang: "Mother, don't you think this thing is strange?"

Ma Shi looked puzzled: "What's strange?"

"Mother, to be honest with you, I went to the pawnshop and asked, the price that the shopkeeper offered to the third and fourth brothers was three hundred taels, how much did they come back to tell you?" Xuan Wenbao asked Ma in a low voice.

Ma suddenly realized: "It's two hundred and fifty taels." Then he slapped his thigh: "These two things, even the old lady cheats." ”

"Mother, do you think they can't have it twice if they lie to you once?

Ma almost jumped up, but his legs and feet were not good, and he couldn't jump up if he wanted to: "It's not impossible, Old Five, what do you say this should be done? No, I have to find them back and ask them clearly." ”

Xuan Wenbao grabbed Ma's family: "Mother, this matter still has to wait, they don't dare to use it easily if they have money in their hands now, don't admit that we can do it?" After a month or two months, they feel that it's okay, they can use this silver, and then we will have traces, and Wulang has little heart, give him something to eat, let him stare at the fourth brother's side." ”

Ma Shi slapped Xuan Wenbao: "Wu Lang Cong is not smart and is also your own nephew, don't talk nonsense." But he agreed with it.

Xuan Wenbao sighed: "Mother, I don't fight with my brothers, I'll be filial to you and my father." ”

"Good boy, don't worry, there is a mother, it is impossible for the two of them to swallow it alone, they swallowed the silver alone, and they promise to divide the family in the future, no way, even if the silver is not returned, we will not divide the family in this life. Ma touched his youngest son's hand distressedly.

Xuan Wenbao looked at Ma aggrievedly: "Mother, you are so good to me, but now that the four grandchildren are going to get married, if you have to score in the future, this also makes sense." ”

"It's okay, my mother set up a family rule for them, that is, if you don't divide the family, if you divide the family, your mother will leave everything in the family to you, and then let them pay the money to ensure that you don't lose it, and the mother's youngest son is the most intimate. "Ma is angry now when he thinks about the third and fourth.
