Chapter 185: Returning Home (7)

An Jingming's voice stopped abruptly. He looked at his father, and then at his fourth uncle. Squatted on the ground and buried his head.

How could he not remember what happened back then? Not long after Jingming's cousin entered the ground, Dafang secretly sold his wife and daughter, and directly occupied the property of the third room.

Although there was not much left of the three-room property at that time, after all, there was still a big house of five or six rooms, and the people in that big house lost their conscience.

At that time, his father and fourth uncle also felt that the people in the big house had gone too far, and they came to the door to persuade them to redeem the people. As a result, several cousins of Dafang said that Jingming's daughter-in-law did not inherit the family for them, she was the sinner of the family, and that An Ruyi was not a serious descendant of their family, so there was no reason to dominate the ancestral business of the An family.

It's no secret why Jingming's daughter-in-law failed to give birth to a child for Jingming's cousin, who in the village doesn't know why? If Jingming's daughter-in-law really gave birth to a child, I was afraid that she would be directly sunk by the clan.

As for what the ancestral business of the An family is even more ridiculous, who in the village doesn't know that the brothers of the An family lived in a grass house back then, and the eldest couldn't even marry a daughter-in-law when he was in his thirties, let alone the brothers below, they can have such a place to live and live now, or An Laosan worked hard to earn it back. Who knew that in the end, the people in the big house would not be grateful to Dade, even if they had to do things so desperately.

But at that time, when several cousins faced their father and fourth uncle, their attitude was arrogant, tough, and rude, they relied on their own long house, and the daughter of the family married into the town to be a concubine for the county lord, and even the uncle of the family did not pay attention to it.

To say wrong, the second and fourth rooms of the An family did not dare to speak for the third room, and in the face of Jing Ming, who was in the third room of the An family, because of his perennial illness, his life was difficult, and he fell into an extreme predicament when he was too little to help, and even when the orphans and widows were sold, they just asked once, and after being hit back by the big roof, they let go and stopped meddling.

More than ten years ago, just when everyone gradually forgot the events of the year, and the old things of the third room were only occasionally mentioned by An Lao Er and An Lao Si, someone suddenly came to Wenyang Village.

In addition to claiming to be a steward, he did not reveal any words about his identity, he first rebuilt the cemetery of An Laosan's family, and then chose an honest and honest one from the distant clansmen of An Jia, changed his name to An Chengkang, and succeeded An Jingming, who was in the third room of the An family, as an heir.

Someone came to give money to the house and land, and also helped An Chengkang marry a wife.

At that time, the people in the big house looked red-eyed, and came to their second and fourth rooms, asking An Lao Er and An Lao Si to come forward to the clan and say that even if they are a step, they should also pass the children and grandchildren of the family room.

An Lao Er and An Lao Si have long been unpleasant to the long house, plus it seems that people are not small, they are not stupid, why should they be villains for the benefit of the long house? So categorically refused.

For this reason, Changfang also let them go cruelly. It's a pity that the second and fourth rooms are not the third rooms with few people, and the tragedy of the third room back then still made them feel ashamed of An Laosan, so this time, no matter how the people in the long room threatened and lured, they were resolutely unwilling to stand on the side of the long room.

Even if An Lao Er and An Lao Si refused to come out, it would be impossible for Changfang to watch such a big piece of fat fall into the mouths of outsiders. They had no choice but to go to the patriarch in person.

No one knows what happened next. I only knew that the people in the long house suddenly disappeared overnight, the house and land were all sold cleanly, and even the daughter who married outside the country was all gone, and no one ever returned to her parents' house.

There was a lot of discussion in the village, some people said that the people in the long house had made a fortune and moved their families to other places, and some people secretly speculated whether it would be the mother and daughter who were sold in the third room who had an adventure and came back to take revenge?

No matter how you guess, no one knows the answer. However, the families who lent money to Jingming's daughter-in-law back then, without exception, received a hundred times the repayment of the silver money lent out that year. Not only that, but those people were promised to fulfill one of their requests, as long as that request wasn't too outrageous.

The second and fourth rooms of An's family, which were repaid 100 times the amount of money, were also received, and what they didn't expect was that An Jingming's mother-in-law, An Huang, actually received the most of the two rooms, a full five hundred taels.

Later, they learned that An Huang's had a good time with Jingming's daughter-in-law, and they almost lent her the dowry money given by her mother's family at the bottom of the box.

Five hundred taels, An Laoer's daughter-in-law couldn't help but ask this eldest daughter-in-law, An Huang, to put the silver money in the public middle school and hand it over to her to take charge of, but was stopped by An Laoer.

Most of the other people in the village who had borrowed money had made requests to the steward, and the demands were varied, and some people even opened their mouths to ask for fields, silver, and an errand because they thought that these demands were outrageous enough, but the stewards were all satisfied.

The people in the second and fourth rooms of the An family did not make a request, not because they were unwilling to mention it, but because they were forcibly suppressed by An Lao Er and An Lao Si and did not let the family mention. Originally, they didn't even feel that they had the face to take the hundredfold amount of silver, but they had no choice but to have many children and grandchildren in the family, and the bright silver was placed there, no, they couldn't face the desire in the eyes of their children and grandchildren

There was silence for a long time. An Jingming said in a low voice: "Brother and sister, she won't come back to take revenge, right?" ”

"No, it won't. If you want to take revenge, you will take revenge that year. Where will the silver be given? It is the big house that has an enmity with them. Kindness is repaid a hundredfold, but I am afraid of hatred, alas, I am afraid that the people in the big house will not be good. ”

An Laosi looked at the wine in front of him, and the aroma of the wine could no longer arouse the wine worm in his stomach. He has thought about it countless times over the years, and the big house disappeared overnight, and he was afraid that there would be less luck.

"They didn't make a move on our two rooms because we didn't calculate them, but we were limited in the beginning. Back then, that steward was just normal to us, and he didn't treat us very kindly. Even the heirs are not willing to choose from our two families. After all these years, they haven't come back, and they have never heard from us. I'm afraid that's also their attitude towards us now. ”

"I'm afraid they've treated us like ordinary people." An Lao Er also figured it out and sighed deeply.

"If that's what they think, we can't hold ourselves too high in the future. In the final analysis, it is still us who are at fault, who received such a great favor from the third brother back then, but stood by and watched when his descendants were in the most difficult time. If we can't help it, we are ashamed of the three rooms! (To be continued.) )
