Chapter 123: Fighting for Land

With Chen Xuejiao as a human being, he can guess Old Man Chen's mind at this moment.

Old Man Chen is only occasionally confused, and he has a good face, so he has a dislike for Dafang.

I have to try to dispel Old Man Chen's doubts, as long as Old Man Chen is standing on the side of the big house, Chen Zichang and Chen Zigui will not be able to give birth to any moths. "Grandpa, these five hundred dollars are filial piety to you." Chen Xuejiao handed Old Man Chen a bag of money.

"This ......" Old Man Chen suddenly sat up straight and didn't pick it up, with doubts in his eyes.

"Master, you also know that we made some money by selling the tea eggs, and the money bought land, and the money was specially honored for you." Chen Xuejiao said with a smile.

"Oh, how can this ask for your money, you just bought land, and you need money everywhere." Old Man Chen excused himself.

Chen Xuejiao smiled, Old Man Chen loves face, she gave the money to Old Man Chen so generously, and the little Jiujiu in Old Man Chen's face was satisfied, but disappeared.

"Master, I won't tell you anything, I don't have much money left to buy land, I will honor my grandfather for 500 yuan, and I will also honor you for 500 yuan. My grandfather accepted it, and he said that he was as happy as his grandfather when he saw us buying land, and said that what he cared about was not the problem of more money and less money, but the fact that the family had a lot of business. Today's purchase of land was too sudden, I didn't have time to say to my grandfather, my grandfather said that he and his grandfather have been friends for more than ten years, and he understands his personality, and he will never blame me for this, but my mother and I still took the opportunity to accompany my grandfather. Chen Xuejiao put the money on the kang.

Chen Zichang and Chen Zigui put their eyes on the stack of coins together.

Old Man Chen heard this. The unhappiness in my heart disappeared immediately, but I was a little ashamed.

"My sister-in-law's family bought so much land at once, what is this 500 yuan?" Chen Zigui said with a smile.

"You know what. I only know how long it takes to save the five hundred dollars, let alone five hundred dollars, you can earn me a penny to try. Old Man Chen reprimanded Chen Zigui.

"One recipe can sell for a hundred taels." Chen Zigui said, "What kind of recipe is this, can you sell so much?" A hundred taels of silver is not something that can be taken out casually. No wonder the eldest brother and his family are clamoring to split up, it turns out that they secretly hid such a recipe. I said, if I had this recipe. I'm going to split up too. ”

It seems that everyone in the upper room knows that the tea egg recipe was sold for a hundred taels of silver, but in fact, this matter cannot be hidden. It is estimated that when he was drinking, the shopkeeper Han inadvertently revealed it.

Chen Xuejiao's heart moved. How did Chen Zigui listen to this, how wrong it sounded.

Chen Xueyao's eyebrows jumped, this tea egg recipe was sold for so much silver. She was not interested in the silver, and how much silver and gold were waiting for her when she was about to marry into the Ding Mansion. She complained that no matter how she tried to please Xue Jiao at home last time, Xue Jiao was unwilling to teach her to cook tea eggs.

Unexpectedly, she was hiding her secrets, and she gave it to herself because she was afraid that she would leak it and cut off the financial route of their big house.

"Look at what the fourth brother said? What is hidden in this recipe is not private, this is still after the separation, Xuejiao, the child, made it up. Even your brother and I don't know how this recipe came out. We made this money, and it was also by virtue of good luck that we bought a few acres of land. You know that, too. Your brother is injured and won't be able to sit in the museum in the future, and the family is counting on the newly bought land for food and drink. Li spoke.

Li didn't like to listen to Chen Zigui's words, but she couldn't say the cruel words. If she said it ruthlessly, Chen Zigui would scream again, and she would be a sister-in-law and a brother-in-law who had a dispute. Spread it out like something.

Chen Zigui seemed to grasp Li's mentality, and said unrelentingly: "Sister-in-law." If my eldest brother is good, this money will not be kept private by you. My eldest brother gives the money to his mother every year, so why did he sell the recipe and buy the land as soon as he broke the house? ”

Chen Zigui himself is not a kind person, and no one expects him to speak and act kindly, but what he said can be regarded as a punishment. In and out of these words, it was obvious that Chen Xiucai was bewitched by the Li family and secretly scolded the Li family for being unfilial.

It is a great crime for a woman to bewitch a man.

Li Shi heard the meaning of this, and his eyes turned red with anxiety.

"Fourth, what do you mean by this, you are a younger brother, why do you talk to your eldest sister-in-law. Your sister-in-law has been married into the Chen family for so many years, what delicious and delicious food does not honor me and your mother first, what you say is too heartbreaking. After listening to Chen Zigui's words, Master Chen slowly spoke.

"Dad, I didn't mean that, I was thinking about you and my mother." Chen Zigui quibbled.

The words are insincere, and anyone can hear them.

"For the sake of grandpa and grandma? Fourth uncle, this should not be said by me as a junior, but since you can say my mother, you are not afraid that I will say the same thing about you, if you think about grandma and grandma, you will not borrow usury and let grandma go into debt. Chen Xuejiao said unceremoniously.

Chen Zigui's face flushed angrily, and these words also indirectly hit Chen Zichang.

Chen Xueyao was still unclear about Chen Zichang's loan shark, but at this time, after looking at Chen Zichang's expression, he also understood in his heart.

"You girl, your fourth uncle is filial or not, I don't care what you do, you are talking here, you have a bad stomach of water, maybe you stole it and robbed it." Mrs. Chen became angry.

"Milk, if you doubt the origin of this recipe, you can go to the official and steal it? It's that easy. Chen Xuejiao counterattacked, but she almost didn't say, "You steal one too."

"Xue Jiao, look at what you said, your grandmother cares about you, a hundred taels of silver is a young man for a family like us, and you suddenly got so much silver, so you can't worry about your grandmother." Zhao smiled and spoke, and after speaking, Xue Jiao talked about Li again, "Sister-in-law, did you say it?" When there was no separation before, my father and mother were in charge, and we didn't have much silver in our hands, so how long has it been since we separated, you sold and bought land, not to mention my mother, even I am worried that you will act badly. ”

A hint of ruthlessness flashed in Chen Xuejiao's eyes, what the Zhao family said sounded good, but he actually took Chen Zichang's words just now, and openly and secretly pointed to the Li family's private recipe.

Just now, Chen Xuejiao deliberately interrupted Chen Zichang's words. Unexpectedly, after turning around, he was pulled back to the original point by Zhao.

A few days ago, because of the matter between Chen Zichang and Qingbi, the Zhao family was much more honest. He was also very polite to the Li family, but today it has become the way it was before. Maybe it's because Xue Yao came and she has a backbone in her heart, or maybe it's because she saw that the big house was sold for a hundred taels of silver to buy the land, and her heart was unbalanced.

Sure enough, Mrs. Chen realized the meaning of her words, and looked at Li with an unkind face.

"Eldest daughter-in-law, if you think I treated you badly before, just say it. I don't need to be slapped in the face by this seller. Tell me, I didn't let you eat or drink before. I'm a stepmother," Mrs. Chen brought out the identity of her stepmother again.

"Mother, I didn't mean that." Li hurriedly explained.

"And what do you mean?" Mrs. Li was aggressive.

"Our family sold a hundred taels of silver, which means that my family is not afraid to go out, and I didn't steal or rob. We are bright, what is wrong with earning money to buy land. Fourth uncle, second aunt, grandmother, you have repeatedly questioned my mother, what do you mean? Chen Xuejiao's eyes swept over Chen Zigui, Zhao, and Mrs. Chen.

Mrs. Chen hates to death, this girl is getting stronger and stronger, and she wants her to be strong everywhere.

The boss was injured and separated, she was very happy, and she was afraid that the boss would drag down the upper room. She can't wait for the boss to die, if the boss dies, then her son Chen Zichang will be the eldest son. In the future, everything in the house will be his, and he will no longer have to worry about the boss. But after the separation, the eldest family not only did not fall. On the contrary, it got better and better, ate constantly, put on new clothes, and today made money to buy land. She was on fire in her heart, and the more she thought about it, the more angry she became, and the more she thought about it, the more unhappy she became.

The big house bought land and bought a banquet in the town. Chen Qi'an went home and invited her to go, and she said that she would wait for Xue Yao at home. So I can't go, in fact, I don't feel happy to see the big house getting better and better.

"Who taught you, you dead girl, dare to talk back to me." Mrs. Chen was poked by Chen Xuejiao and said angrily.

"We don't mean anything, sister-in-law, my brother has always taken care of us, filial piety to my father, your land now adds up to thirty acres, more than before we separated." Chen Zigui said with a thief's eyebrows.

"The fourth brother is right, we have fifteen acres of land for more than a dozen people in the house, and the eldest brother's family of six people has thirty acres of land, which is not fair." Chen Zichang echoed Chen Zigui.

When Chen Xuejiao heard this, she was about to explode, so she suppressed her words and said lightly: "What do the fourth and second uncles want?" If you want to divide our family's land, just say it. ”

"I didn't say this, it was Chen Xuejiao who said it." Chen Zigui said, "This family should indeed be redivided, you are hiding from us to sell the son, this is not right, this money should be considered public." ”

Everyone in the room looked different and held their breath.

This is what Mrs. Chen really thought, and Chen Zigui said it.

"Fart, brute." Old Man Chen picked up his cigarette pouch and hit Chen Zigui, "What are you talking about, are you still a person?" Your eldest brother is lying on the kang, and you actually say such a thing, if this word spreads, where will I and your mother's old face go. ”

Old Man Chen was very heavy, and he screamed at Chen Zigui.

Fortunately, the cigarette pouch sent by Qingyu was strong, otherwise it would have been broken according to Old Man Chen's strength.

When Mrs. Chen heard this, she came back to her senses, if this word was spread, it would be a slap in the face of her stepmother. She couldn't help complaining in her heart that Chen Zigui couldn't speak, she could ask for land, but she couldn't ask for it naked, what she wanted was for Li to give her the land in person.

"Dad, why are you beating me?" Chen Zigui grinned in pain.

"You still have the face to say? It's easy for your eldest brother to earn a few silver, if it wasn't for your brother sitting in the restaurant to make money, our family could afford to buy land, and how many of you would be able to eat and clothe yourself? Old Man Chen sat on the kang angrily and panted.

"As the boss, isn't that what he should be?" Mrs. Chen defends her son.

"Whatever comes to your mouth, it's right. Why is there only a dozen acres of land left in our family now, it's not that you are used to losing money in gambling and selling land to pay off debts. The boss sits in the museum a year and takes home fifteen taels of silver, you go and inquire, who can earn fifteen taels of silver in the entire Maoshan Village? But where did our money go? Why is there less and less land? It's not the second child's work, it's all the boss's money. Old Man Chen angrily said this to Old Lady Chen's face.

Mrs. Chen consciously took care of her losses and remained silent.

Chen Zichang's family lowered their heads and did not refute.

Chen Xuejiao heard this for the first time.

When Chen Xiucai was injured, he couldn't wait to kick the big room away; Now that the big house has made money, the upper house can't wait to get a piece of the pie.

This calculation is a bit too fine.

"Eldest daughter-in-law, you have been wronged, and I am happy that you bought land. In the future, you will live your life, and the face you earn will be regarded as the Chen family, and there will be light on my face when I go out to do something. Old Man Chen said to the Li family.

"Dad" Li is grateful to Mr. Chen for protecting the upper room.

"Master, my grandfather said that the tea egg recipe was thought of by me, so it was written in my name."

Chen Xuejiao said this, mainly to tell everyone in the upper room, who is trying to fight in the name of these 25 acres of land, no way!

"Yes, it should be written in your name, don't worry." Old Man Chen heard about it in the town.

Everyone in the upper room heard that it was written in Xue Jiao's name, and they couldn't help but look at Xue Jiao, and even Xue Yao, who had always been disdainful of Xue Jiao, couldn't help but look at her a few more times.

"Whether it's now or in the future, whoever is mentioning the boss's property, I can't spare anyone." Old Man Chen said sharply.

It is a good thing for Old Man Chen to subdue Chen Zichang, Chen Zigui and others, and it also saves Chen Xuejiao from wasting his tongue against them. (To be continued)
