The tall old man glanced at the old man before nodding and answering, "Yes." ”

"You, since you can get out of the house for yourself, it shouldn't be difficult to arrange an errand for your third brother, right?" Old lady Gao's cloudy eyes looked directly at the eldest son.

"Father, you only think about arranging errands for your third brother, have you ever thought that with his temperament, if you really arrange an errand for him, if you cause trouble in the future, there will still be someone who has the ability to clean up the mess behind his back?"

Old lady Gao rushed out, "Isn't there still you?" ”

"Father, I am his eldest brother, not his father, you should know his temperament best, he still causes trouble every day without an official body, if he really has an official position, relying on that official skin, the things that can be caused are much more serious than the white body, do you really hope that the Gao family will be dragged down by him?"

"What are you talking about? He used to cause trouble all day long, just because he saw that all of your brothers had official positions, and he was not alone, and his heart was unhappy and unhappy, so he borrowed wine to drown his sorrows, and only then did he cause trouble, and it was not something he was willing to do. ”

Old lady Gao completely believes that the third child said that he was in a bad mood when he went out to drink, so he was calculated by others, so he would be in debt, in fact, with the qualifications of the old lady Gao, how could he not see that the third child's words were full of loopholes, but he was just deceiving himself, trying to convince himself and persuade his eldest son to help!

But when he thought of paying off the debts for the third child and selling those precious seal stones, Old Lady Gao was distressed, he really wanted to let the third child have an errand as soon as possible, so that he would not be fooling around outside all day.

He completely forgot that his ancestors were still there. Even if the third master has an official position, he is still fooling around all day long, but at that time he was busy with official business, and his wife helped his son cover up, so he didn't find anything unusual.

The tall old man smiled faintly, "Father, have you really thought about it?" If the son really arranges an errand for the third brother, if something happens to him in the future. I can't save the fire from far water. You'll have to do it yourself. ”

He was released, and if the third master made a mistake in the capital and was impeached, he couldn't save it if he wanted to.

I thought that Old Lady Gao would hesitate because of this. I don't want him to be an old man, but he said angrily. "You didn't think he's good, did you? Again. Your son-in-law and his grandfather are both in Beijing, if your third brother gets into trouble, will they be able to see death and not save them? ”

Hehe. I really don't know where his father's confidence comes from! thought that the Du family should help their Gao family, "Father, you shouldn't forget, right?" The third brother and sister and the niece of the third room once bullied my granddaughter, and the third brother and sister and the mother tried to force Du Yunqi to marry the third brother's concubine as a stepfamily, but to no avail, and wanted to design him to accept the third brother's concubine as a concubine. ”

Old lady Gao felt that the old face was hot, "Then, isn't that unsuccessful?" ”

"Yes! It didn't work out, it was because people refused to enter the gate of the Gao family at all. "It's because Du Yunqi didn't even give him the opportunity to calculate, not because the third lady took the initiative to give up calculating, and Du Fu has only been in contact with the big house since then.

The eldest son's face was full of ridicule, which made the old lady Gao feel that he couldn't hold his head up in front of this son.

"Father, do you think that if the third brother really causes trouble, will the Du family really help?" It's good if people don't fall into the ground!

Old lady Gao looked puzzled, "Then you say, what should I do?" He's your third brother, so it's hard to let him sink like this, right? ”

"Father, the third brother is not young! If you have grandchildren, how long can you protect him like this? The tall old man snorted coldly, since he was a child, several of their brothers have been writing and reading, who is not serious will be beaten, only the third child, writing is not serious, not only his mother will make excuses for him, but when his father punishes him, he will be lighter than them.

For example, when the eldest brother was young, he had to write 300 big characters if he wrote a big character wrong, the second and fourth brothers were punished for writing 100 characters, and only the third brother only had to write 10 times.

He and his second brother both took the imperial examination by themselves, and the fourth brother also took the exam, but their grades were not as good as theirs, only the third brother, who never even took the exam, so he was directly arranged by the old lady Gao to give him a vacancy.

"He's your brother."

"The second brother and the fourth brother are also my younger brothers, and the fourth brother is still younger than him!" It is said that Mo'er should be the most favored one, but their Gao family is different, "But the fourth brother is not like him, when something unpleasant happens, he borrows wine to drown his sorrows, and he is so stupid that he is designed by others, and he should learn to be obedient when he suffers a loss last time!" But the third brother makes the same mistake several times a month, so tell yourself! What if today, your old friend or classmate or the same year asked you to arrange an errand for such a person, would you agree? Or don't say yes? ”

Of course not! He is not stupid, how can he arrange a job for such a person, that may cause trouble for himself and cause himself to be dragged into the water.

Seeing the change in the expression on the old father's face, the tall old man smiled, "How long have you been since you retired from the court, you won't be naïve to think that everyone else is stupid, and you don't know if you've been calculated, so we're the smartest, right?" ”

Having said this, Old Lady Gao had to bow her head in despair, "Then what about your third brother?" ”

"You can do it yourself! I'm his brother, not his father, I can't control him, I can't even arrange the future of my own son, can I still take care of him? You're looking too highly of me, too! ”

After the old man Gao finished speaking, he got out of the car directly, and no longer continued to talk to the old lady Gao, and if he continued to talk about it, he felt that his brain was dizzy, and one thing kept going back and forth, which was not interesting at all, and it was better to seek an outside position as soon as possible.

The place where he got off the car was not far from the Ministry of Works, his car and people were not far ahead, the tall old man stepped forward, and the entourage saw him get out of the car from a distance, and hurriedly urged the coachman to rush over to pick up people, after getting into the car, the tall old man said, "Go to Du Mansion, I have something to find the Xiangye." ”

The coachman agreed, and neatly returned to the car to Du Mansion.

A few days later, the tall man was once again transferred to serve as the waiter of the Ministry of Works, and set off for Jiangnan on the same day to inspect the embankments and rivers in various places.

At the same time, the Gao family was rumored to be divided, on the same day, the old lady Gao invited the elders of the Gao family and others to witness, everyone said that the parents were not separated, but the old lady was the master of the division, and he and his wife were raised by the eldest son and the third son respectively, and the second and fourth rooms were not in Beijing. The clan elders originally thought that the old lady and his wife would deduct their two rooms harshly, so that the third room and the long room would have more, after all, their two rooms would be responsible for supporting the two elders.

But I didn't expect that the income of the three-room is less than the two-room and four-room, the long house has the ancestral house in the Gongzhong, six granges, ten shops, one three-entry house in Beijing, 50,000 taels of silver, and the two-bedroom and four-room only have one four-entry house in the suburbs of Beijing. One for each of the Granges. There are two shops, 10,000 taels of silver, and the three rooms are unique to one house in Beijing and one grange. There are two shops. Five thousand taels of silver.

In fact, this house, Zhuangzi and shop can't just look at the quantity. It also depends on the location, the annual interest of Zhuangzi, and the annual income of the shop. But there is such a big gap in cash alone, so the clan elders have to guess that the reason why the old lady is in a hurry to divide the family for his sons is that he is afraid that the third child will take out his private house and cause the other three sons to be dissatisfied?

After the death of the ancestor, the Gao family lived together in the high mansion to keep filial piety, after the expiration of the filial piety period, the tall lord moved out of another property on the grounds of inconvenience every day, after the division of the family, the tall lord went out of Beijing to do an errand, after the tall lady arranged the yard for the father-in-law, he personally came to pick up people, the old lady Gao originally intended to make it difficult, but she couldn't stand her husband's cold face, she shrunk.

Mrs. Gao took two concubines and lived in the eldest son's house, and Mrs. Gao lived in the original Gao Mansion with the third old man, but this house was already the property of the big house, the old lady was here, and the third room could still live here, and the old lady passed away, and the three-room family had to move out.

Where can they live when they move out? Naturally, they live in the house they shared, compared with the ancestral house, the house is small, the location is not good, the third room naturally does not want to move, if you don't want to move, serve the old lady well!

The third master looked at the cash in his hand, and there was not enough stuffing between his teeth! What can it be used for? I had to dig up money from the old lady, how much private production capacity did the old lady have, and the people in the third room didn't have a good deal to spend the money, so all the cash in the hand was spent at once, and the old lady made up some more, but it was still not enough.

The third lady didn't want to dig out her own private room, and put the idea on the daughter-in-law's dowry, just ten days after the separation, the daughters-in-law of the third room had already made a fuss, and the old lady was crying by this granddaughter-in-law for a while, making a dizzy noise, and suddenly had a headache by the third daughter-in-law, and she had lost weight in just a few days.

When Mrs. Gao learned this, she smiled secretly, she should be asked to spoil the people in the third room, and let them clean up the aftermath of the other rooms for the third room, she sat on the side and watched the excitement by herself, and she should also let her taste what it was like to clean up the mess for the people in the third room!

Mrs. Gao has to be tied to the third room for the rest of her life, how much can the third room make a fuss, Mrs. Gao knows it very well, but how could the old lady split up without warning, and also separated herself from his wife, and was supported by the big room and the third room?

Shouldn't it be customary for both old husbands and wives to be supported by the long house?

Did she know that the old lady had gone to her husband before deciding to split up, and the father and son had been in the car for a while, and she didn't know what they said? I want to ask to understand, but my husband has gone out of Beijing again, and the return date is uncertain, and it is not easy to ask about this matter in the letter, so I can only keep it in my heart for the time being.

Du Yunxun's brothers knew something, because when the tall man came to Du Mansion, they happened to be in Du Xiang's study, and after greeting each other, their brothers withdrew, but they did not stay away, but avoided next door, so they heard something.

The tall old man asked Du Xiang how to deal with his third brother's problem, his third brother caused trouble all the time, his father didn't want to discipline the third brother well, but forced their brothers to help clean up the leak of the third brother, for which he almost had no intention of doing business, he was worried that if he continued like this, he would make a mistake.

Du Xiang only reassured him, and then sent someone to see Mrs. Gao, and stabbed Mrs. Gao and the third lady to know all the ugly things that Mrs. Gao had covered up for the third master in the past.

In addition to the grass and people's lives, there are also things such as robbing people's property and fields, snatching people's wives and daughters, etc., but at that time, relying on the old lady Gao is still a book, these things were forcibly suppressed, when the orphan of a bitter lord changed at home, he was angry to go to the high school jinshi, after several years of hard work, he recently entered the Yushitai, and saw that the old lady Gao continued to go to the relationship and wanted to arrange errands for his son, so he submitted these collected evidence of the crime, and finally went to Du Xiang.

After Mrs. Gao got these things, she didn't think about it for too long, and decided to split up.

After the matter of Gaofu's separation spread in Beijing, Du Yunxun said to Fan Anyang, "Old lady Gao is really realistic!" ”

Fan Anyang said, "You care about him!" ”

In fact, Mrs. Gao and Du Xiang are very similar, they both married a not very good wife, the eldest son is very promising, and the family has a son who is spoiled by his wife, they are very successful in their careers, but they are a little derelict as fathers.

The second master Du and the third master are so similar, but Du can see clearly compared to the old lady Gao, he didn't arrange an official body for the second son at the beginning, and he didn't want the Du family to be dragged down by his unsuccessful son, but the old lady Gao thought that he could suppress his son, but he didn't expect that his wife and son did something good behind his back! This is also the end, he chose to give up his wife and the third room. (To be continued.) )
