Chapter 77 Liquidation
When the door was closed, the hall was a little dark, and the silver lamp that was usually lit only by worshipping ancestors was bursting with sparks at this moment, and there was a trace of fireworks in the air.
The six old men, the seventh grandmother, and the three of the old shopkeeper Li came out of the back room. The three of them took advantage of the closing of the door to ventilate in the small room in the back.
Just came over, smelling the smell of fireworks, the old shopkeeper Li couldn't help coughing a few times.
"Daughter-in-law, make the fire smaller, you think this is the torch that lights the sky lantern in the village." The Seventh Old Lady said to Chen on the side. The voice is always indifferent. Then sit upright on the throne.
The sixth old man and the old shopkeeper Li sat on both sides. Old Madam Li is now the patriarch of the Li family, and this gesture is obviously a posture of dealing with clan affairs.
"Yes, daughter-in-law will make it smaller." Chen got up and pulled out the fire head with a silver needle, and the fire head was much smaller, emitting a dim and dim halo.
On the one hand, when everyone heard the Seventh Old Lady 'light the sky lantern', their hearts were a little hairy.
The situation in the hall now, everyone knows that although this is not a pomp and circumstance of lighting sky lanterns, it is a practice of the family law.
Is the old lady going to apply the family law?
Zhenniang couldn't help but look at Li Jincai on the side, Li Jincai's face was a little pale at this time, but his expression was still calm, and on the other side, Tian's was quite calm, but seeing her holding the corners of her clothes, she was obviously a little confused.
On the one hand, the Han Li clan and the Sun clan are first-class, and their faces are inevitably a little worried, of course, this kind of melancholy does not mean that they have ghosts in their hearts, but the atmosphere in the hall is very depressing.
It's Zhen Niang, although she is frank and swinging, but the fist is inevitably clenched. Somewhat nervous.
"Steward Shao, get the family tree." The Seventh Old Lady instructed Steward Shao on the side.
"Yes. Old lady. Steward Shao responded respectfully and turned inside. After a while, he came out with the family tree in his hands, and then respectfully placed it on the table in front of the old lady.
The old lady glanced around at everyone, then lowered her head and opened the family tree, and when she arrived at the son-in-law who had recorded the sixth room, her eyes stopped.
"Zhenniang, grind the ink." The old lady didn't even raise her head.
"Yes, Grandmother Seven." Zhen Niang hurriedly stepped forward, and there was an inkstone on the table. There is a piece of black ink on the side of the inkstone, and there is also a cinnabar red ink ingot.
"Grinding vermilion." The old lady said again.
Zhen Niang poured water, picked up cinnabar ink ingots, and grinded them. It didn't take long to grind it.
"Alright, Seventh Grandmother." Zhenniang whispered.
"Hmm." The seventh old lady responded lightly, looked up and glanced at everyone, then picked up the pen and dipped it in Zhu Mo, and then ticked off Li Jincai's name heavily on the family tree.
After that, he pushed the family tree to the table: "From now on, Li Jincai is no longer a member of my Li family." After speaking, he said to Steward Shao who was standing on the side with his hands hanging down with a frosty face: "Steward Shao, take someone to take Li Jincai down." Break a leg for me and expel me from the Li family. ”
Immediately, the two family members who were waiting on the side stepped forward and grabbed Li Jincai's collar. You're going to drag him down.
Old Madam Li suddenly made a heavy hand, which made the people present very suspicious and didn't understand. Why did the old lady suddenly shoot at Li Jincai.
Of course, these people do not include the elderly who have three rooms. The three old men had passed their qi before, and the Chen family and Li Zhenniang who were present also knew it.
Of course. There are also those who are more shrewd, thinking of the scene where Li Jincai and the fake Lord Jinyiwei unexpectedly recognized each other, how is it too coincidental, I am afraid that there is another inside story inside, so they all wait and see what happens.
"Jinhua, save me." Li Jincai said with a pale face.
"Aunt Seven, why is this?" Li Jinhua couldn't help but stand up at this time, and asked anxiously.
"You give me a safe seat, your seventh aunt must have her reason for doing this, just look at it." On the side, the sixth old man glared at Li Jinhua fiercely and said.
Then he didn't look at Li Jincai, so he closed his eyes, the seventh brother and sister had already told him before, and he only hated that he was blind back then, and he actually chose this white-eyed wolf.
Hearing what her father said, Li Jinhua had no choice but to sit down, only looking at Li Jincai, who was struggling, and her expression was full of unbearable, sitting there as if there was a nail under her buttocks.
Seeing her like that, Zhenniang leaned forward and whispered a few words in her ear.
"Really?" Li Jinhua couldn't believe it. Li Jincai actually raised women outside, not to mention, but also colluded with outsiders to harm Li's ink shop?
"Hmm." Zhenniang nodded heavily. A cautious face.
Since it involves Li's Moji, Li Jinhua sat still, she wanted to see what kind of heart Li Jincai was?
"No, old lady, it's not fair." Li Jincai, who was being dragged along, saw that the sixth old man and Li Jinhua were out of the matter, and he was unwilling to be broken leg, so the only way to save himself was to save himself.
"Unfair? Do I need to be fair with you? I don't need a reason to hit you!! The Seventh Old Lady said coldly.
"The old lady doesn't need a reason to beat me, but I'm afraid that it will be difficult to block the mouth of the people." Li Jincai said while struggling. But he talked about the Li family's voice.
"I see that you don't cry when you don't see the coffin, you collude with outsiders to rob my Li family business, let alone break your legs, even if you kill you, others have nothing to say." The Seventh Old Lady looked at Li Jincai coldly.
"The old lady is so angry, it's just that your Li family can't tolerate my son-in-law, so you can say it clearly, I just asked to leave, why do you want to make such a big move to intercept such a charge for me. I think I'm a son-in-law, and I'm just a hard worker in the ink shop, how can I be able to take away the Li family's business? The old lady can't help but look up to me Li Jincai too much......" Li Jincai also said coldly.
"What a clever tongue, don't you say that you and that so-called Lord Yang really just met by chance?" Old Madam Li sneered.
Even on the other hand, Zhenniang also curled the corners of her mouth.
"That's the case, everyone was there when I met Lord Yang at the time, could it be that it was also fake?" Li Jincai said stiffly.
"So, you don't know that this Lord Yang's surname is Su? You don't know that this person's name is actually Su Jiubao? Don't you know that he has a girl named Su Zhu? You don't even know that this Su Pearl has come to Huizhou? Don't you know that this Su Pearl lives in the vegetable market? Don't you know that you often run to Su Pearl's house in the middle of the night for three days? Old Madam Li asked mockingly.
And the Su pearl in her mouth is Su's.
At this time, Mrs. Li finished asking in a loud voice, and waved her hand: "Bring the Su mother and son up." Let this negative man see. ”
"Yes." Steward Shao answered, turned around and went out. After a while, he was followed by a young woman. Holding a boy less than two years old in his hand.
"Get rich." As soon as the Su clan came in, when he saw this situation, he was naturally worried, and when he saw Li Jincai standing there, he trotted over and hid behind Li Jincai.
"Sue? It's still this Su family, Li Jincai, hello, you're so good!! Li Jinhua stood up. Bare-eyed, gritting his teeth and hating.
"Aunt Jinhua, it's not worth being angry with such people." Zhenniang pulled her to sit down and persuaded.
"Yes, I'm not angry." Li Jinhua sighed deeply and calmed the resentment in her heart.
Li Jincai was really blindsided at the moment, he thought that before, Mrs. Li must have found out about his ink shop through Wang Cuiqiao, but he didn't expect Lian Su's family. Even Lord Na Yang is actually the eldest brother of the Su family, and Su Jiubao, this secret old lady knows.
And this, he can be sure, even Su Jiubao will not recognize these in the lobby. Then there is only one possibility, Old Madam Li has been staring at him for a long time. Then he targeted the Su family, and Zuihou was then targeted by the Su family to Su Jiubao.
And he himself, the mechanism is exhausted. But it turned out that the hole cards had already been revealed.
"What are you waiting for, drag it on. Broke a leg and drove out of the Li family. Mrs. Li shouted, according to her surname, she would not give Li Jincai any chance to speak. The reason why Li Jincai was clever before, most of it was just to let everyone understand the situation.
"Old Madam Li, you can't do this." On the side, Su Shi held the child in one hand and pulled Li Jincai's clothes in the other, and said to Mrs. Li.
"I don't need you to teach me how to do it, even if he is like this, I can't beat him to death." Old Madam Li said coldly.
Listening to Mrs. Li's cruel words, the Su family was really afraid that Mrs. Li would be ruthless, so they didn't dare to say more.
Immediately, Li Jincai was dragged to the yard. Su Shi chased the child out with his arms in his arms.
After a while, Li Jincai's screams came from the courtyard.
Then Steward Shao came in to report that he had broken one of Li Jincai's legs and drove him out of Li's house.
"Mother's heart is getting more and more kind, is this the end of this matter? also fulfilled the pair of dog men and women in vain. At this time, Han Li muttered unwillingly.
Zhen Niang stood beside her, and then answered: "Auntie, how can it be finished? This is just the beginning, at this moment, Lord Yun must be waiting outside to take someone, then Su Jiubao committed the crime of pretending to be an official, then Wang Jincai will definitely be trapped, just like he is now, when he is in prison, he will take off his skin if he does not die. As for whether Su can get out, it's hard to say. ”
Li Jincai was expelled from the Li family, so naturally he was not surnamed Li, and after that, he was Wang Jincai.
"Uh-huh." Listen to Zhenniang's words. Han Li snorted faintly. She just can't get used to it, why does the Li family have eight rooms in charge of the family business in the seventh room. Coupled with the grievances between the seventh and eighth rooms of the Li family back then, Han Li didn't have a good face for Zhenniang at this time.
Yes, Zhenniang doesn't use hot faces to stick to people's cold butts. Watching the Seventh Grandmother deal with things intermittently, she can learn a lot in this.
Li Jincai was kicked out of the Li family, and at this time it was the Tian family who was most worried in her heart, she really didn't expect that this Li Jincai looked loyal, but he had this vicious mind, and he was gone. She had said a lot of good things about Li Jincai before, and promised to help Li Jincai get the right to be the master of the ink shop, but now that she thinks about it, she regrets it very much. What if her mother-in-law thinks that she and Li Jincai are in the same group?
"The third daughter-in-law ......" At this time, Mrs. Li's voice sounded again.
Tian was seriously worried, and suddenly heard Mrs. Li call her, and under the weakness of her heart, she knelt down with a bang: "Mother-in-law, I really don't know that Wang Jincai is such a person......
"Get up, I didn't say anything about the white-eyed wolf." Old Madam Li said with a frown.
"Yes, mother-in-law, please tell me something." Tian lowered his eyebrows and said pleasing to the eyes at this time.
"It's your mother's seventieth birthday in a short time, right?" Old Madam Li asked.
Tian's mother is Tian Benchang's grandmother, surnamed He, and Mrs. He has bad eyes. In recent years, I have rarely gone out.
"Yes, my mother-in-law has a good memory." Tian responded. By the way, I slapped a sycophant.
"You are your mother's daughter, and your mother also loves you the most. I heard that your mother's body is not very tough, I think it is better to take advantage of this birthday, you go home to take care of your mother, and I will notify the Tian family to pick up people tomorrow. Mrs. Li said lightly at this time. Generally speaking, women who observe festivals do not easily go back to their parents' homes, so when will they go back to their parents' homes? When you go back, you will die early. When Mrs. Li said this, she obviously didn't plan to take it back.
"Mother-in-law, what did I do wrong, you want to send me back to my parents' house?" Tian said anxiously.
"You haven't done anything wrong, it's just that you're thinking big. It's not appropriate to stay in the Li family any longer. You are still young, less than thirty years old, and you have been guarding the third child for ten years, which is enough. With the right person, you can remarry. At that time, my Li family will give another dowry. Mrs. Li said.
Remarry? How easy is it to say? How could Tian not understand.
"Mother-in-law, no matter how big my mind is, it is also for our seven rooms. Yes, I'm targeting Zhen Niang. It was precisely because of this blind eye that he was used by the white-eyed wolf. But Zhenniang is the granddaughter of the eighth room, back then, didn't the eighth uncle also eyed the ink workshop? Now that Zhen Niang is in charge of the ink workshop, how can I not think about it. Don't talk about me, how can Brother You'er and his mother ever feel at ease? This foundation should also belong to Brother You'er. Tian said with red eyes.
Her words dragged Sun into the water. Sun sat there on pins and needles, and Chen looked at her and shook his head in disappointment.
"Are you so foolish with me?" Old Madam Li glanced at Tian lightly.
"Don't dare. It's just that the daughter-in-law is telling the truth. Tian said.
"Honestly? Do you dare to say that you are really all for the seven rooms? It's all for Youge'er? Don't admit it, you're doing it for your own selfishness. You're supporting the white-eyed wolf, not just because you've been deceived by him. It's that you think he's just a son-in-law, you can't become a big thing, you just want to use him to achieve your goal of controlling the ink shop, people are selfish, this is understandable, but don't forget, you are a member of the Li family, you have to abide by the rules of the Li family, if everyone thinks like you, then the Li family is not messed up, don't forget, the family does not deceive outsiders, just your mind, against the white-eyed wolf, you don't even have a chance to win, and then, the entire Li family will be cheap to others in vain. Old Madam Li said hatefully.
The Tian family was exposed by Mrs. Li, and her face was hot for a while, and she defended herself: "Then how does the mother-in-law know that Zhenniang and they will not swallow our seven rooms, there have always been many big families who have swallowed the branches here." ”
Tian's words made the people in the eight rooms of the Li family angry.
"Let's go, Zhen Niang, go home with my mother, our eight rooms are not rare Li Ink Workshop, if you really want the Ink Workshop, we can afford it ourselves." The Zhao family, who came later, immediately jumped up at this moment.
"Jingfu's daughter-in-law, don't be bored." Old Madam Li made a gesture of sitting down at Zhao, and Chen pulled Zhao to sit down.
"Do you all think more or less so in your hearts?" At this time, Old Madam Li glanced around at several rooms in the seventh room.
No one will respond to such words, but it is undeniable that this kind of thinking is more or less some.
"Steward Shao, has Master Sheng arrived?" At this time, Mrs. Li asked Steward Shao again.
"When I arrived, Zheng Cai was accompanying Master Sheng outside." Steward Shao stepped forward and said.
"Master Sheng, please." Mrs. Li made a gesture.
Steward Shao went out in response, and after a while, he invited Master Sheng in.
"I'm sorry Master Sheng." Old Madam Li said half-facedly.
"The old lady is polite." Master Sheng arched his hand, then took out a contract from his sleeve and handed it forward: "Old lady, I brought the contract, you can see it." ”
"Thank you." As she spoke, Mrs. Li took the contract, glanced at it, and then handed it to the Chen family next to her: "You all take a look, it's really in vain for the villain's heart." ”
Chen took it, glanced at it, his face changed, and he turned his face to look at Zhen Niang. Then he handed the contract to the Da Huang clan, and after the Da Huang clan read it, he also glanced at Zhen Niang, but he nodded at Zhen Niang, and then handed the contract to Tian.
Tian took the contract and looked at it, he was stunned for a moment, and then his face couldn't help but turn red, the date of this contract was the date when Zhenniang took over the ink workshop, and the person who set up this contract was Li Zhenniang.
As early as the day when she took over the ink workshop, Zhen Niang had already made a deed of mutual agreement in the yamen and transferred everything in the ink workshop to the name of You Ge'er.
