057: Reason
Xia Fugui this time is 'stealing chickens does not make rice'.
After thinking about it, he felt that the biggest problem was still with his wife Zhao.
If Zhao was not jealous, he would not have made dangerous moves.
Now, causing this situation, Xia Fugui's regretful intestines are green.
What's the use of regret? What is most lacking in this world is regret medicine......
Xia Fugui had no place to vent his anger, so he could only throw the tea cup in his hand and fall to the ground, and Xu Liu, who was frightened on the side, shuddered.
"Xu Liu, ...... you" Xia Fugui took a deep breath and suppressed the powerful emotions surging in his heart, "This time the third lady is going to Zhuangzi?" What the hell is going on. ”
Early this morning, Xia Fugui heard two bad news, one is that the old Taoist priest and the Taoist boy next to the old Taoist priest were sentenced to beheading, and the second is that Xu Liulai reported this matter.
It should be said that although the old Taoist priest cheated, he did not sin to death. After thinking about it, he could only think that it was the master of the Wen family who was obstructing him, and he added some charges to the old Taoist priest out of thin air. The Wen family and the Xia family now seem to be in harmony on the surface, but in fact, they are eager to swallow each other alive.
Mrs. Xun of the Wen family, yesterday she also sent someone around her to send medicinal materials to the Li family, saying that she would visit another day, how much honor is this? But this made Xia Fugui somewhat puzzled, what idea was the Wen family trying to win over his untalented younger brother?
Not to mention the Wen family, what Xia Fugui couldn't understand the most was that his squeamish niece actually wanted to go to Zhuangzi.
Xu Liu stood in front of Xia Fugui, he didn't dare to take a breath, and quickly replied, "Yes." Uncle. Last night, I had a drink with Wang San, and Wang San told Xiao Xiao when he was drunk. said that the third lady was going to Zhuangzi in a few days, and it seemed that she was going to find Wang San and his father to do something. It seems that it should be a business thing. I think the third lady made a lot of money in the cotton business a few days ago, so ...... So this time, I want to ...... little."
Xu Liu specially invited Wang San to drink yesterday, although Wang San usually doesn't talk nonsense, but when he gets drunk, he almost asks what to say. So after Xu Liu drunk Wang San, he heard the news from Wang San's mouth. Xu Liu thought that the third lady had made a lot of money in the cotton business a few days ago, and the uncle was so angry at that time that he would have told the uncle about this as soon as possible. Then getting a little reward is enough for his family to spend a year and a half.
Xia Fugui didn't know what Xu Liu's thoughts.
It's just that Xia Fugui always feels that this thing is a little strange in his heart.
"Is what Wang San said reliable? Will he ......" Xia Fugui still had some doubts.
When Xu Liuyi heard this, he quickly waved his hand and replied in an affirmative tone: "Wang San's careful thinking can be seen through at a glance. Uncle, you don't know how stupid Wang San's person is. The last time he went to Xianyang with the second lady and the third lady, I asked casually when I came back, and he quickly vetoed that he didn't go, and then blushed like a monkey's butt. So uncle, please rest assured, this time I asked him when I was drunk. There will be no fakes. ”
Xia Fugui rubbed his eyebrows.
A few days ago, when he hadn't fallen out with his second brother Xia Fucheng, Xia Fucheng also visited late at night.
Xia Fucheng told him that Xia Ruan was going to do business again this time, or was he going to do tea business in Danyang County. He personally commanded the king's steward to do it. At that time, Xia Fugui scolded Xia Fucheng fiercely, and everyone knew that the Nanjia of Lu Daonan was a well-known merchant in Kyoto, and he single-handedly took the tea business in Danyang County. Xia Fucheng asked him to go to the tiger's mouth to grab food, didn't he ask him to find death?
And the Nan family all these years. The tea business is also getting worse and worse, and it is said that there are several tea plantations in Danyang County. It's all about losing money in it all the time.
The Nan family has silver, and in order to save face, they naturally don't care how much they lose.
But what does he have? He lost a lot of money in the cotton business a few days ago, and now if he does the cotton business again, Xia Fugui will think of Xia Ruan, not to mention how much he is holding his breath.
Xia Fugui thought for a moment before instructing Xu Liu: "You have been close to Wang San's set recently, let's see if this is true or false." Moreover, you also asked your subordinates to follow you about the movements in the second master's house, and they all alerted me a little bit, so look at it. If this is true, then I will give my niece a big gift——。 ”
In order to make Xia Fugui feel at ease, Xu Liu said confidently: "Uncle, don't worry, this small matter will definitely be handled properly for you." By the way, uncle, the little one still has something to tell the master, but the little one doesn't know whether to say it or not. ”
Xia Fugui raised his eyebrows, all these words were said, is there anything else that should be said and not said?
He has always been distrustful of anyone, and even Xu Liu, who has been with him for more than ten years, is often suspected by him.
"Yesterday, Aunt Zhou was crying outside the door again, saying that the uncle didn't care about her, so she ...... And the second master went to the flower street again, I'm afraid that Aunt Zhou will ......" Xu Liu said this, and said no more.
Xia Fugui is not a fool, he knows the meaning of these words very well in his heart.
Aunt Zhou is his outer room, except for Xu Liu, only the Zhao family knows about this matter.
But now it is known to everyone.
As soon as he thought of the Zhao family, Xia Fugui felt a terrible headache.
He has always wanted to take a concubine, but the Zhao family is too strong, so although he has a grudge against the Zhao family over the years, he still doesn't dare to show it too obviously.
This time, he reluctantly sent Zhou Yue to Xia Fucheng's side, and he actually had two plans in his heart.
This is one of them: As long as the Zhao family didn't close his eyes and go west, he wouldn't allow Zhou Yue to enter the door, so after Zhou Yue became pregnant, he couldn't continue to let Zhou Yue be the outer room, so he sent Zhou Yue to Xia Fucheng's side. If Zhou Yue is born as a boy, then although he is a concubine, the Li family has no children, and this boy will be able to inherit the family business of Xia Fucheng's family in the future. If it's a daughter, it's fine. He will find a way to let this daughter get most of the family's money when she gets married, and when the time comes, he will recognize the child in private, and there will be no harm to him in the future.
Second, Xia Fucheng took a concubine, and he, who was an elder brother, wanted to take a concubine, which was also justified. The people around him will definitely say that the Zhao family is too pungent and a jealous person, which gradually makes the Zhao family's reputation worse. In the end, he had to accept the fact that he was allowed to take a concubine.
However, many things. It's not as simple as Xia Fugui thought at all.
Zhou Yue's cousin Jade was sent by Xia Fucheng, and Xia Fugui thought that this time his younger brother had finally opened his mind. Willing to send a woman to him. Although Cuiyu's appearance is not as good as Zhou Yue's, it is more than enough compared to Zhao's, and Xia Fugui's mood is better, and he is a little more kind to Xia Fucheng.
But he just gave a pair of bracelets to Cuiyu, and Zhao was so jealous that he killed his favorite cat and Zhou Yue.
Zhao's shot was vicious, but he just praised it: "Jade's eyes are like cats, clear and watery." "I didn't expect that. Zhao actually gouged out the eyes of the cat and jade, and after he knew it at the time, he was also trembling with fright.
But people can't be resurrected after death, and if Zhao does this, he will have a bad reputation.
Xia Fugui had no choice but to come up with this method to frame the Li family.
Although he knew that Xia Ruan had long been suspicious, Xia Ruan was a young lady in the boudoir, and she couldn't look at Aunt Zhou from time to time, and Cuiliu was even more busy with her feet not touching the ground, so how could she stare at these every day. So he asked Zhou Yue to do it. Bury the jade and the cat's eyes in the courtyard of the Li family, and when the time comes, he will find some Taoist priests to make trouble, and the Li family will be retired by Xia Fucheng.
If he is 'lucky', the child in Li's womb may not be able to be saved.
He did it carefully. even gave medicine to Cuiyun, who was buried in the yard, and made Cuiyun completely crazy. In this way, even if it is rumored, everyone will believe that the Li family has made a crooked way. He deserves to be divorced.
Cuiyun and Cuiyu were bought back by him with a trick that day, and now the two chess pieces are gone. Xia Fugui was somewhat regretful. But as long as Li is suspended, he feels that it is worth it.
But by all means. Xia Fugui didn't expect that Xia Ruan would actually find Dr. Zhou.
Xia Fugui muttered in his heart: This old thing, really damn it, dare to ruin my big thing.
It's just that Xia Fugui also knows that the Zhao family will definitely make a more amazing move this time.
If this doesn't get rid of it for a day, he will feel uneasy, but how can he get rid of the Zhao family?
"Well, I know about this, you go and ask Liugou to arrange Aunt Zhou's residence, and live in the previous courtyard." Xia Fugui waved his hand, as if he could shake away all his troubles, "Tell her not to mess around, otherwise don't blame me for being ruthless when the time comes." ”
Xia Fugui felt that Zhou Yue was simply too ignorant, and he actually ran out to make trouble with him at this time, it was simply ...... However, when he thought of the child in Zhou Yue's belly, Xia Fugui held this breath back alive.
Xu Liu was a little surprised, but soon showed a smile: "Little Zhilu said, does the uncle have any other instructions?" ”
Xia Fugui couldn't help but sigh, and his words revealed a trace of exhaustion: "You go to do these things first, and then go to the account room in the evening to get five taels of silver, don't let the eldest lady know about this matter, understand?" ”
When Xu Liuyi heard this, his smile gradually deepened, and he knelt down excitedly: "The little one understands, the little one understands." Uncle Xie Lu, Uncle Xie Lu, Uncle Xie Xiao, the small one must serve the good uncle, and the little one will be worth making cows and horses for the uncle in the next life. ”
Xia Fugui was not very happy, he felt that the next thing was even more tricky after letting Xu Liu go.
On the other side, Xia Ruan also showed a sad look.
It's just that the Wen family sent medicinal materials to their mother, and even the Xiao family sent medicinal materials, what kind of peace of mind is this? The medicinal materials that Aunt Lin asked her personal maid to send were much better than those sent by Mrs. Wen Jiaxun.
She wanted to refuse politely, but after the maid finished speaking, she didn't give her a chance to speak at all, and ran away, treating her like a beast.
She can't return the medicinal materials to the Xiao family now, because this will completely tear her face with the Xiao family, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, no matter how bad the Xiao family is, it is also the Xiao family, and it is more than enough to deal with her.
Thinking of this, Xia Ruan couldn't help but sigh, this Xiao family would really make trouble for her! (To be continued......) (To be continued......)
