Xu Shaowei has relied on Xu Shaoze in the yamen in recent years, and he is naturally on the side of the long house between the two rooms and the three rooms.

But he was also embarrassed by the choice of one of the two proposed by the third room, which one to choose was obviously not good for the long house, should he listen to the Huang family's avoidance of this matter?

When the Xu brothers all received the news, Xu Yong had already rushed back from Wumen Temple.

I didn't wait for Xu Ying at the street entrance before, but waited for the little guy who came to pass the word, thinking that Xu Ying was delayed in trivial matters, so he didn't block the trip.

When he stepped into the mansion with two feet, he noticed that the atmosphere was a little wrong, and he was already suspicious in his heart, and then he entered the third room and listened to Shi Qing's words, his face instantly became gloomy! Immediately, he didn't even have time to change his clothes, and went directly into Xu Ying's room.

After hearing Xu Ying's ins and outs, he suddenly took a deep breath: "In the end, you have an idea, so it's okay, I don't have to think of how to open my mouth to propose a separation!" Even if they divorced, I don't want to live here anymore! ”

Xu Ying thought for a while and said: "It is definitely necessary to divide the family, but in fact, it is not necessary to divide the house, if the house is divided, my brother can only work alone, and the old lady is still alive, we always have to do our filial piety." As long as we can get the property of the third room back and run it ourselves, and it has nothing to do with the house in our daily life, we can really get to the point where we can't live in one place in the future, and we can go at any time. ”

Xu Yong said with a heavy face: "I hate to stay away from them!" ”

"Brother, this is angry talk." Xu Ying said.

Xu Yong glanced at her and didn't say anything more. Suddenly, he thought about it and said, "That sword spike—"

Xu Ying raised her lips: "Of course, I deliberately asked Ah Ju to hand it to Cui's house." We can find out what the Cui family is looking for, but we can't find out the truth of the year, so we have to do something to knock them and let them show their own more horses. ”

Xu Yong nodded, she always has a deep meaning in what she does.

It's still early now, Xu Shaoze and they are not here, and the people in the house are not even, and it is not the time to separate the family.

Xu Ying is still concerned about the situation of Wumen Temple this time.

He said: "I have asked back and forth, but the monks do not remember my father, and I have donated five taels of silver. Cai Yang and they dug out the donation book ten years ago, but they did find the name of their father. At that time, he donated 50 taels of silver and 50 catties of sesame oil, which was taken over by a monk with the Dharma name Yuanzhen, and I found Yuanzhen again. Yuan Zhen remembers such a thing. ”

Xu Ying said: "Donating fifty taels of silver at a time is not a small amount. ”

Xu Yong nodded, "And the day of donating money is on the third day after my father rescued Cui Lian back, combined with my mother's statement, it should be that he came back and mentioned it to his mother after donating sesame oil money."

"I asked for some more details. Because he was a Beijing official at the time, Yuan Zhen still remembers it. He said that his father went early in the morning, still wearing official clothes, and after donating the money, he still knelt under the bodhisattva's golden body for half an hour before leaving. ”

Xu Ying thought for a while and said: "I remember that Mama Su once said that after her father came back, she seemed to be worried for a long time, he donated so much money at one time, and he still sat silently in front of the Buddha, could it be that in order to save Cui Jian that night, what did he do that he was ashamed of?" ”

She would think so, mainly because she thought that Cui Jian took the initiative to sign a marriage contract on the spot after being rescued. This itself is not reasonable, Cui Lian must have some handle in Xu Shaochuan's hands, so he will urgently want to win over Xu Shaochuan, so will Xu Shaochuan be uneasy just because he helped Cui Lian cover something?

The ins and outs of this case actually have a general outline in Xu Ying's mind, but it needs evidence to confirm.

Xu Yong was silent for a while, and said: "What you said is not impossible, but I have the impression that my father has a noble character, and he will not do anything that violates his principles because he wants to give you a good family." ”

He spoke every word with a deep and steady voice. It's not like Xu Ying's doubts.

Xu Ying didn't say any more. Xu Yong's feelings for Xu Shaochuan are much deeper than her feelings for Xu Shaochuan, and her analysis of this matter itself is from the perspective of an outsider, unlike Xu Yong, who digs out the truth while also having nostalgia for Xu Shaochuan.

This went to Wumen Temple, although it peeled a little skin. But what Cui Chuan was looking for still couldn't be found.

"Is Brother Yong'er back?"

At this time, Yang's voice came from outside the door.

The silence in the room was broken, and Xu Yong stood up and got up to change into his official uniform.

Xu Ying greeted Yang at the door and told Xu Yong about the results of his visit.

Yang said: "You said that the monk who received your father's incense money is called Yuanzhen? ”

Xu Yingran said: "That's what my brother said. ”

A look of doubt suddenly appeared on Yang's face, "Yuanzhen, this name is so familiar......"

Xu Ying immediately straightened her back: "What did my mother think?" ”

Yang frowned and pondered for a while. Suddenly he stood up and walked out the door.

Xu Ying didn't dare to slack off, so she hurriedly went up.

Yang returned to the room and went straight into the room, and did not let the maid in, he moved the embroidery pier and stood in front of the large closet against the wall, opened the cabinet door on the top, and took out a wooden box more than two feet long. After getting off the ground, I opened the lid of the box, and I saw that there were some fragmentary text contracts or something, and the paper was yellowed with different degrees, which showed that it was very old.

"Look at this." Yang rummaged through the box for a while and took out a very ordinary envelope.

Envelopes are common envelopes that don't look anything special.

Xu Ying reached out and pulled it in, and took out a piece of paper, but it was a pawn ticket.

When the ticket is written, it is true.

"What's going on?" Although the third room is not rich, it will never be to the point of being a family wealth.

"I found it when I was cleaning up your father's study." Yang frowned and said, "The current period of this pawn ticket is ten years, and I don't know what it is, and people won't disclose it if it doesn't expire." But I counted all the things in the small storeroom, and nothing was missing during that time, and when you just said Yuanzhen, I thought that there was such a pawn ticket.

"Although it is written on it, the handwriting is your father's handwriting!"

"Yu Hengdang?" Xu Ying looked up on the pawn ticket and stood up, "It's a red gold brick." It is five inches long, three inches wide, and five minutes thick. The current period is up to this year, and when it is a regular job, there are two months left......"

Pawn ticket for the current ten-year! And the date of the pawn is the same day as the day that Xu Yong said about donating sesame oil money!

This shows that it is likely that Xu Shaochuan went to the pawn shop again after returning from going to Wumen Temple, and borrowed Yuanzhen's name as a payment!

Xu Ying suddenly felt that her hair was full of strength!

Ten years, isn't it ten years now? Ten years ago, she and Xu Yong were six years old, and Cui Jian and Xu Shaochuan also agreed to marry after she turned sixteen, if Xu Shaochuan hadn't died, wouldn't it be time to redeem this thing? It is also the time when she will marry into the Cui family?

She had a gut feeling that this was what they were looking for! That's exactly what the Cui family is looking for!

But can a gold brick make the Cui family rich again?

"Back then, I asked Mama Su to take this Shangyuheng, and they said that they couldn't redeem it a day in advance." Yang said, "Yuheng is an old man with a century-old foundation in Beijing, and there are several powerful people behind him, their reputation is excellent, but the rules are also tight, don't say that I can't go, even if your father is alive, you can't get it in advance."

Xu Ying groaned.

She has never been to a pawnshop, but she understands the routines.

She can understand what Yang said, but since this thing is something that Cui Lian cares about, it naturally can't be put outside, and besides, whether this thing is greasy or not, is it something that the Cui family wants to take away, she has to figure it out first, right?

She raised her voice and called the chess: "Go and invite the uncle to come over." ”

The waiter walked around and said, "Uncle has already gone to the yamen." ”

Xu Ying sneered.

The Xu family made a fuss here for a while, and it was temporarily calm in the afternoon.

Mrs. Cui has returned from Uncle Cui last night, but she didn't close her eyes all night.

Hope to be disappointed again for the time being, and was almost intercepted by Xu Yong!

"How can you not even avoid Xu Yong?"

To this day, she still can't help complaining, the Cui family is from a meritorious background, and Uncle Cui himself is also a small martial artist, so many years of military career is said to be impossible to even be a fledgling teenager.

Uncle Cui returned in vain, and was cut off the sword spike, I don't know if Xu Yong will notice anything, how can there be any good voice: "The Xu family is also a martial arts inheritance, and the original merit was not based on martial arts, Xu Yong has worked hard since Xu Shaochuan passed away all these years, what is so strange about discovering me?" ”

Mrs. Choi was speechless.

But although the words were pushed back, Uncle Cui was still depressed.

After all, after this failure, it would be impossible for him to have a chance to sneak into the Xu family again.

If you don't enter the Xu family, how can you get that thing back?

After seeing Ah Ju and the mother-in-law of the Xu family go away, Zhi Niang hurriedly returned to the house, saw him and his wife sitting next to each other and sighed, and hurriedly went inside and said: "Master, someone from the Xu family just came to probe the bottom with that sword spike!" ”

Both of them looked up at the same time, unable to hide the surprise in their eyes.

Mrs. Cui said, "What did they say? ”

When Zhi Niang finished explaining the ins and outs, Uncle Cui also changed his face: "That must be the Xu family!" What did you reveal? ”

The slave and maid only asked them where they got it, and said nothing else. Still, I think they already know what they know. Zhi Niang looked at Mrs. Cui worriedly.

Mrs. Cui sat back on the couch and closed her eyes while caressing her heart.

"Lord Shizi, why don't you go in?"

The room was at a loss, and suddenly the butler's slightly alarmed voice came from outside the door.

Uncle Cui's heart sank slightly, and when he walked out of the threshold, he saw that Cui Jia was standing under the door in an official uniform, and he didn't know how long it had been!

"Why are you here?" He was silent.

Cui Jia tightened her teeth, looked at him twice, and walked in the door.

When he arrived at the house, he walked straight to Mrs. Cui and asked her, "Dare to ask Mother, what happened when Zhiniang just said that someone in the Xu family brought a sword spike to probe the details?" What did my father do when he went to Xu's house last night? Why does not only my mother know about this, but even Zhiniang knows about it, but I don't? (To be continued.) )
