It is Mama Tian who has an incredible expression, she is a girl who grew up in the Yu family, it has only been more than 30 years, and the children and grandchildren of the Yu family are so poor that they can't even marry their daughter-in-law, which has to be emotional.

Yu asked, "Zhenglu, tell your aunt and grandmother, do you want to study?" ”

Zhenglu knew that the family was difficult, "Back to my aunt and grandmother, my nephew and grandson are willing to study, but my mother went, and my younger brother read better than me."

Yu Maocai sighed lightly, "In his early years, he was also good at studying,?? I also passed the children's test, and I was waiting for the next session to take the test, and I didn't want his mother to go. Jianzhang is a useless person, thinking about his dead daughter-in-law all day long, and he is depressed. The family relied on Zhenglu to support, so they put aside their books and supported the big house. ”

The moment became more and more uncontrollable, and tears of bitterness and pain kept pouring out.

Yu could see that it was the hardships that had changed him for a long time.

Mama Tian couldn't bear it, after all, she was looking at it? said: "Uncle Yu is a few years younger than my eldest master, if it continues, it will not be difficult." ”

Even his son couldn't marry a wife, not to mention that he, a half-old man, although he was only in his thirties, was more like an old man who was nearly fifty years old.

Yu sighed lightly: "Fourth brother, your family is having such a hard time, why didn't you come to me earlier." ”

Yu Maocai shook his head and sighed, "I still remember that the third sister left Jinyang back then, and the family was making trouble about the separation. The third sister once had a big quarrel with the eldest brother and threatened to say that she would no longer care about the affairs of the Yu family. ”

On that day, the Yu family set an auspicious day to leave Jinyang, went back to visit his mother's house, and did not think that as soon as he entered the mansion, he heard the crying sound, shouting about the hanging beams, smashing the bowl and smashing the pot, and the mansion of the good Lu made a pot of porridge, where is the demeanor of the famous family in Jinyang, which is similar to the people in the market.

Yu persuaded his father and brother, but he didn't persuade him, and in a fit of anger, he said, "From today on, I don't care about your." There are no brothers like you! Turning her head and crying, she covered her mouth and left, and the day after leaving the Yu family, she went to the imperial city with Jiang Shuncheng, and this time she went for more than 20 years.

Yu said: "What you said back then was angry, and you still can't take it seriously." Look at Jianzhang, it's not difficult to find a house and extend the room, and the eldest brother is also getting married? Unable to say any more, Yu's tears rolled down.

So-yeon thought that when she witnessed her father and brother in distress, she felt even more uncomfortable than her own death. Comparing hearts to hearts, the Yu family heard that their brothers and nephews were not doing well, but they were afraid that they would be even more bitter. Wen Sheng persuaded: "Mother doesn't have to be sad, first ask the third uncle about the situation at home." ”

Yu often took Yu Maocai to play together, and later Yu Mao was only six years old when he was studying, and their sister and brother separated. When it comes to the relationship with his mother's family, Yu's talent for Yu Mao is far better than that of his eldest brother. The relationship between the eldest brother and her eldest sister is the best.

Seeing that the Yu family was uncomfortable, Mama Tian asked on her behalf: "Master Yu, how many fields and shops are there at home?" ”

Yu Maocai said: "When the family was separated, the Yu family's shops and fields were almost tossed by Aunt Robe. Later, my father was in charge, and my son-in-law had more than 30%, and our house was divided into 90 acres of land, a cloth village, and a tea shop. When the eldest daughter-in-law was alive, she was also a real person, thinking of the brothers behind, as long as a newly built yard of thirty acres of land, the cloth village was left to the second room, and the tea shop was left to the third?

Yu thought of himself as a person? "How can it be that it is less than my dowry?" In the past, when she went out of the cabinet, there were 180 acres of land, which were later given to Jiang Shunxin, and there were cloths, silver coins and other things, which were almost used when she married into the Jiang family. Later, in order to let Jiang Shuncheng enter the imperial city to take the exam, she reluctantly sold dozens of acres of land.

Yu Jianzhang looked sad and uncomfortable, wiping his tears from time to time and sobbing lowly.

Su Yan didn't think that her eldest cousin was like this, obviously he was the eldest son and a man, but he loved to cry more than her daughter's family. I only heard Zhenghao say apologetically: "Grandmother, this? I often mention you, I am so happy to see you today that I have repeatedly lost my temper, although he usually talks little, but it is not like this. ”

Perhaps, it was his momentary emotion.

After all, the Yu family was divided at that time, and Yu Jianzhang was the biggest one, and he remembered the inside story in the most detail.

Yu Jianzhong could no longer be silent and said, "We?? The big house is due to the early death of the grandmother, and the aunts are changing ways to build a family business for their children. When the family was divided later, the good shops and fields had already been swallowed by them. After the family is separated, the fields and shops that were said to have been sold in the morning have popped up again?

Yu asked, "Isn't there still a dowry for my younger siblings?" ”

Yu Jianzhang said: "We still have two sisters, in order to let them behave in their parents' family and not be bullied by their in-laws, my mother divided her dowry into two parts 20 years ago and married them. ”

Yu let out a long sigh, "So, it's really bitter for you." Maocai, if you want to send a letter to the imperial city to talk to me, how can I ignore you. ”

What So-yeon thinks, how does she think it is impossible. Thirty years ago, wasn't the Yu family a big family in Jinyang, how could it be that it fell so far in a blink of an eye, could it be true that it really responded to the sentence "Thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi"? She said in a low voice: "Mother, Mama Tian and I went to the kitchen to have a look, and there are guests here today, so let them prepare more good wine and food." ”

Yu replied, "Go!" ”

Out of Xiangrui Courtyard, Su Yan told a few words, mostly to let Mama Tian add vegetables, and led Bai Zhi to move to the Moon Shadow Residence.

Along the way, Bai Zhi couldn't stop shaking her head and sighing, "I didn't expect that Old Master Yu's family is now similar to ordinary people." Those in our house who have done ten?? The subordinates of the matter, I'm afraid that they are more decent than them. ”

Su Yan didn't say anything, called Tong Ying and Wei Xiong, and asked them to inquire about the situation of Yu Maocai's family.

After Tong Ying left, Bai Zhi asked, "Don't you believe the county lord?" ”

Su Yan said: "It's not that I don't believe it, it's just that I asked people to investigate the actual situation." My mother has already moved her heart of compassion, even if she wants to help, she has to figure it out. Also, Jianzhang's cousin has lost his wife, and his son is nearly 20 years old and has not yet married. ”

The master and servant returned to the Moon Shadow Residence, and Su Yan sent Bai Zhi to tell Mama Tian that she would not let the Yu family allow Yu Maocai first, and then decide how to help after she inquired clearly.

After an hour, Wei Xiong replied: "County Lord, I inquired, and most of them were said by people who are familiar with the Yu family in the east of the city. The Yu family split up more than 20 years ago, and the eldest aunt in the house did make the bad si swallow five shops and two granges. After Mrs. Yu passed away, the Yu family was taken care of by the eldest aunt. Who would have thought that the eldest aunt was Mrs. Yu's dowry girl back then. Later, everything he swallowed was given to the two sons of the eldest aunt. The Yu family's big house, three rooms, and five rooms don't get much, and the most bitter thing is actually the big house. ”

"I heard that when the eldest lord Mao Degong was alive, he took care of the three rooms, and gave the tea shop and inn to the three rooms, and his family got sixty acres of land, and Mao De Gong had two sons and a daughter under his knees, and the daughter married away from home, in order to prepare a decent marriage village for his daughter, he sold twenty acres of fertile land to the three-room Mao Caigong, and the market price was fifteen taels of silver a mu at that time, and it was sold to?? I only got twelve taels of silver per acre. When the Duke of Mao De was dying, he divided the family for his two sons, and each got 20 acres of land, and the life of the two families was extremely hard. ”

So-yeon didn't expect the news to be like this.

Why didn't my uncle's children and grandchildren come to visit because of his backbone?

There are countless people who have icing on the cake, and there are few ginseng in the snow

"The second room of the Yu family, ? What are the days of the fifth room? ”

Concubine?? is the son of the eldest aunt of the Yu family, and the fifth room was born to another aunt of the Yu family.

Wei Xiong said: "I heard that twenty years ago, Aunt Yu sold her land and shop with her two sons and went to Anyi after Master Yu's death. Six years ago, Mao Xuegong, who was in the second room, came back and heard that in the Anyan Salt Farm, life was very rich. Mao Xuegong took pity on the five-room Mao Chenggong family and had a hard life, and he bought another 20 acres of land as a gift. ”

Su Yan's heart sank, but she was afraid that her uncle and grandfather would quarrel at that time and insist on separating the family, which was also a matter of Aunt Zhiludao's hollowing out of the Yu family.

Who would have thought that when my grandmother was alive, the well-behaved and hard-working aunt was also decent, if it weren't for the fact that my grandmother was amorous, how could my grandmother give him her beautiful dowry girl as a concubine. After the death of her grandmother, the eldest aunt seemed to be a different person, thinking all day long about how to swallow the family business and plan for her own son.

"Talk about Mao Caigong's three sons."

Wei Xiong carefully recounted what he had inquired about. "I heard someone who knows the inside story say, Maocai's husband is biased? , the second son, the mean eldest son's family. If it weren't for the good work of the big house, I was afraid that the days of the big house would be too sad. ”

In these words, Su Yan seemed to see the gentleness of Yu Jian's wife, the fierceness of Yu Jianzhong's wife, and the cunning of Yu Jiantong's wife.

Yu Jianzhang is crying into tears today, maybe his heart is too bitter, and he has to deal with it? When the aunt who loved him and loved him met, she couldn't control it for a while and cried bitterly, but like her father and younger brother, she didn't dare to talk about the bitterness in it.

Yu Maocai only talked about the difficulties of the big house, and the world only knew that parents usually took care of their young sons, but they didn't want Yu Jianzhang's family to have a very hard time.

Wei Xiong paused for a moment, Bai Zhi sent tea and handed it to Wei Xiong, he took a big sip, "For details, Tong Ying went to Nanqiao Township to inquire." At that time, the Yu family's compound was also exchanged for silver by the eldest aunt with the title deed to the pawnshop. The second and third rooms of the Yu family have enough capital to go to Anyi. ”

Although Su Yan didn't know where the Yu family's compound was, the Yu family, who wanted to be in charge, was a big family, but she was afraid that the yard would not be small, and it would be half lower than the market price for the pawnshop, so she would rather have a cheap pawnshop than leave it to her own uncle and fourth uncle.

Su Yan clenched her fists tightly, "The more carefully you check for me, the better, take my name card to the official mansion and let them check the situation of Brother Yu Mao in Anyi." ”

Wei Xiong responded. rs！。
