Li Xiao looked at Sanniang, and everyone looked at Li Xiao. Li Xiao turned the satchel upside down, and a dagger and a few ropes fell out of it. Li Xiao said: "I can leave this time, right?" ”

Patriarch Li felt that Sanniang was too much, not to mention anything else, that is, Li Qing counted all the food expenses after taking charge of the family on herself, so she had no reason to trouble Li Qing again. Patriarch Li stood up and was about to speak, but was dragged by the old patriarch on the side. Patriarch Li looked back at his father, and the old patriarch asked him to look. Patriarch Li reacted, this is something that Sanniang has taken a fancy to Li Xiao, so this is the only one. He was also interested in what it was.

Sanniang stepped forward, pointed to Li Xiao's chest and said, "What is hanging on your neck?" ”

Li Xiao took out the jade pendant from his neck, and the entire jade pendant was held in Li Xiao's hand on the outside, and the inside was facing Li Xiao's chest. Li Xiao said: "You stole through my room before, and today you made such a big noise, it turned out to be for my jade pendant."

Sanniang said loudly: "That's my dowry, and the Zhang family is a scholarly family, so there is this thing." I used to think I had lost it, but then I found out that you took it. ”

Li Xiao smiled and said: "Then tell me, what kind of pattern is on this jade pendant, and what words are carved?" ”

Sanniang said hesitantly: "I don't know how to read, and I don't know those tricks." ”

Li Xiao smiled and said, "Second aunt, do you know what this jade pendant is?" Do you dare to say that it is your Zhang family's thing? As he spoke, he took it off and walked over to show it to the old patriarch.

The old patriarch glanced at the patterns on the jade pendant, and his whole body trembled.

Li Xiao hurriedly put away his hand, held the jade pendant in his hand, hid it in his sleeve and said, "Grandpa, I'll keep this, don't fall it for me." Then he said to everyone: "This jade pendant, like that bow, is recorded in the yamen. May I ask if the second aunt is willing to go to the yamen with me to check and see who owns this jade pendant from your Zhang family? “

Sanniang was completely stupid, and she was stupid when she heard the yamen. She had seen Li Xiao holding a jade pendant in her hand in a daze under the sun before, she was far away, she didn't look carefully, she only knew that it was a good thing, and Li Xiao never left her. This time she checked Li Xiao's belongings, she only thought about not letting Li Xiao take away the things at home at first, and then she wanted to see what Li Xiao had good things. Later, I remembered this jade pendant, thinking that it would be good if this jade pendant could be passed on to my son, so I endured it until now.

Li Xiao said again: "This jade pendant is my master's thing, and it has his name on it. It is also recorded in the government that it is owned by him. As long as you go to the government to check it, you will know the truth and falsehood."

Li Xiao hung the jade pendant back around his neck, put it in his clothes and said, "May I ask if the second aunt would like to go to the yamen with me?" ”

Sanniang trembled and said slightly: "I don't go to the yamen, this was bought by my mother's family before." ”

Li Xiao smiled: "It seems that the second aunt really doesn't understand, my jade pendant is to be bought and sold and given away, and I have to go to the yamen to report." My master gave me this jade pendant, and I have already registered it with the yamen. As long as you go to the yamen to check, you can find out that this jade pendant is in my name. At that time, I had not yet entered the family tree, and my master did not know the name Li Qing. It just so happened that I went to change the name to Li Qing this time, which also saved me trouble in the future. "This is Li Xiao scaring them, this jade pendant is his master's, and it is recorded in the palace. But it was given to her, but no one knew. What's more, his master said that she should be careful to put it away on weekdays so that no one can see it, so she carries it with her. She just held it in her hand and tried her best to block the jade pendant, and others didn't have a chance to look closely. Only the old patriarch saw the appearance of the jade pendant, and Li Xiao believed that the old patriarch would not say it. The jade pendant is carved with a dragon pattern, which is a royal thing, not to mention the common people, even the officials dare not have it, unless it is a royal gift. The old patriarch was relieved when he heard that Li Xin had already been registered with the government.

Sanniang is already stupid, she has never heard of anything that even has to be registered with the government for sale and gifting. Sanniang said: "Don't fool me, you still need to go to the yamen to register for the sale of anything, is the official so idle?" “

Li Xiao said: "Since it's the second aunt's thing, the second aunt won't even see the pattern, you can ask grandpa, is this thing going to the government to report?" “

The old patriarch actually didn't know, he just knew that the dragon pattern could only be used by the royal family, and other people's families, not to mention the common people, even the official eunuchs' families secretly hid it was a capital crime. I thought I should go to the yamen to report. He opened his mouth and said: "Li Qing is right, this thing is going to the official mansion to ascend the throne and make a record. You still think that this thing belongs to your family, such a good thing, the Zhang family will not leave it to your son, and give you a dowry, I don't believe it. If you insist that it is yours, I will go with you to the yamen and find out who owns it. ”

Sanniang saw that the old patriarch said that he was going to the yamen, so she knelt down directly in fright. cried: "It's because I'm obsessed, I won't go to the yamen." She is a girl, where is she worthy of so many good things, these should be left to my son to pass on to the family. ”

Li Xiao looked at Sanniang and hated it. Her stuff, she doesn't deserve it yet.

Li Xiao turned his head to Zhang Cheng and said, "Brother-in-law helped me take out the letter in the box just now." Then he threw the key to Zhang Cheng.

Zhang Cheng opened the box, locked it again, and handed the letter and the key to Li Xiao.

Li Xiao took the letter and said: "This letter was left to me by my father, I originally wanted to keep it, but I didn't expect you to beat my jade pendant over the years." I send you this letter. Please ask Patriarch Li to help read it to my second aunt. The outcome is up to my third and fourth brothers.

Li Xiao walked up to Wang Wensheng and picked up the property registration paper of Li Shan's family, and said, "Please ask the patriarch to help me sign the certificate on the registration paper." After speaking, Li Xiao handed the paper and envelope to Patriarch Li. Patriarch Li took the envelope, signed the paper first, and pressed his hands. Wang Wensheng also signed and pressed his handprint. The old lady of the Li family also pressed her handprint. Li Xiao put away the property registration paper and said, "Let's go."

Several people got into the ox cart, and Li Ren drove the ox cart away.

Patriarch Li was stupid and thought: Li Qing is gone, how can my grandson also follow.

Sanniang couldn't wait any longer, and said, "The patriarch quickly read it to me, what did the second pillar leave behind?" “

Patriarch Li opened the letter, this will be completely stupid, he shouldn't have come.

Sanniang urged again, and Patriarch Li read: "Leave the book ......"

After Patriarch Li finished reading, Sanniang was already sitting on the ground. Sanniang cried and crawled in front of Patriarch Li and said, "This is impossible, this is fake." That girl came to harm me on purpose. ”

Patriarch Li said: "There is Li Erzhu's handprint on it, and Zhang Wenyi's signature. When Patriarch Li saw Sanniang, he thought that if the Li Shan family was bad, it would be bad for this woman.

Patriarch Li spoke again: "You Li Shan family can decide this matter for yourself." After speaking, he helped the old patriarch out of the courtyard. Drove the ox cart home.
