Text Chapter 217 with deviation
"Old lady, won't you explain?" Aunt Zhang said gently.
Old Madam Qiao sat upright.
Even though she knew that this secret could not be kept, she never thought that it would be exposed at this time.
Qiao Siye threw a knife in the eye, and Qiao Jinwen, who knew that she was in trouble, buried her head and didn't dare to raise her head.
No apprehension, only fun!
Sooner or later, things that have to be solved, say it early, solve it early, and the people in the fourth room get the seal early.
"What do I have to explain, I only found out that the boss is not my son two months ago, and I wonder what it is, the son I have raised for decades is not my son, where is my own son." As he spoke, he looked at Aunt Zhang.
Obviously, they didn't explain anything, but everyone heard something from Old Madam Qiao's words.
"The old lady is really good at talking, when the old man was still there, the old lady reversed right and wrong with her three-inch incorruptible tongue, and the concubine suffered a lot of losses, so she saw through the red dust and worshiped the Buddha devoutly."
So what do you mean by being vulgar now?
Qiao Yixi thought secretly.
Aunt Zhang continued: "The uncle is the son of the old lady, and since he was born, the old lady has personally raised him, and then, the old man has taken him by his side to learn to do business, who has such a great ability to drop the uncle?" Moreover, it is a package transfer, with the vigilance and caution of the old lady, how can she not find out? Taking a step back, the uncle was really transferred, and the old lady thinks that the concubine has such a great ability, so can she find an exact person to change it? Who knows if the uncle was really transferred, or if the old lady deliberately brought it back in order to stabilize her position? It's a coincidence to think about it, not long after the concubine entered the door, the old lady was pregnant with the concubine at the same time, and even the delivery period was approaching, the old lady, you said, is this fate? ”
Aunt Zhang looked at the old lady contrivedly, there was no solemnity of bathing in Buddha incense between her eyebrows and eyes, and her eyes were flowing, quite the charm of the year.
Qiao Lixi smiled knowingly.
What kind of devotion to the Buddha is just to recuperate, and by the way, it develops in the dark, and how long has it been since it came out of the Buddha hall, and the Buddha appearance has been replaced by a cheesy body.
This is the most direct interpretation of what is "born from the heart"!
"When did you find out that the boss was replaced?" It was the old patriarch who asked.
He knows best the contradiction between the concubine and the concubine, there is no favoritism, but this matter is related to the orthodoxy of the Qiao family, and he has to pay attention to it, if the matter is big, it will affect the business of the Qiao family's royal merchants, and the royal family will not do business with businessmen with a bad reputation!
And, of course, the most important point.
At present, whether it is a concubine or a concubine, they have made friends with nobles, if the people in these two rooms can't get along, then where does the glory and wealth of the Qiao family and the Qiao family come from?
The old patriarch was sure that with his own ability, he could resolve this dispute, and the people in the Qiao family could barely get along in harmony.
"Two months ago, the fourth child found it after returning from the capital." Old Madam Qiao was weak and obviously had been hit hard.
"Why are you so sure?"
Yes, a child who has been transferred for so long, how can Mrs. Qiao be sure that that person is her biological son.
Old Madam Qiao sighed, "Originally, I wanted to wait for this matter to be divided into families, and then find an opportunity to talk to the old patriarch, the current situation of the Qiao family cannot tolerate sloppiness." The long house is not a legitimate long house, and the affairs of the Gu family cannot be implicated in the Qiao family, which is why I have to split the family," Old Madam Qiao's deep voice was full of worries about the Qiao family and the clansmen's plans, "As for that child, you will understand when you see it." ”
After speaking, he glanced at Fourth Master Qiao.
Fourth Master Qiao walked out of the flower hall and led a man in after a while.
"It's ...... Joe Six! The old patriarch stood up with a bang.
Qiao Yixi raised her eyelids lightly.
When she first arrived, she carefully understood the connections of the Qiao family, Qiao Liu was the ranking of the old man Qiao in the clan, and the person the old witch found was a little similar to the old man Qiao.
Interested, she couldn't help but glance at the man more.
In modern terms, he is nearly 1.8 meters tall and has a Chinese face, but because of his thin body, there is no meat on his originally burly skeleton, which looks very unpleasant. There is nothing brilliant about the facial features, the visual sense is very mediocre, the eyes are restrained, honest and loyal, and the shrewdness of businessmen does not match at all.
"Old, old lady, patriarch." The middle-aged man greeted him stiffly, and he was very cramped when he stood beside Qiao Siye.
"This, this ......" The old patriarch was too shocked to say a word.
In the end, it was Old Madam Qiao who spoke, "Old Patriarch, you have also seen that this child and the old man are simply carved in the same mold." ”
"yes, it's exactly the same, it's impossible to doubt." Aunt Zhang said with ulterior motives, "Not to mention, it's the first time that the concubine has seen such a similar father and son." ”
Old Madam Qiao snorted coldly, she didn't care about Aunt Zhang's sarcasm at all, and said to the old patriarch: "Patriarch, the appearance of this child alone is not enough to explain the problem, I have let people verify that the birthmark on this child is not wrong, if it weren't for Qiao Xingbang's exact birthmark, I wouldn't have recognized the wrong child." ”
As she spoke, Old Madam Qiao's eyes turned red.
Qiao Yixi understood what she meant.
The child that Mrs. Qiao gave birth to back then had a birthmark somewhere on her body, and the replaced Qiao Xingbang also had that birthmark, so the old witch didn't find out that Qiao Xingbang was a fake. Now, this person who is almost exactly the same as Old Man Qiao and has the same birthmark on his body made Old Madam Qiao realize that something was wrong, so she investigated it to the end.
"But that proves he's your son?" Qiao Lixi asked in a dying struggle.
"Yes, there are thousands of similar people in the world, and there are more people with the same birthmark, how can we prove that he is the son of the old lady?" For some reason, Aunt Zhang seems to be very supportive of Qiao Yixi.
Old Mrs. Qiao said: "I have checked the past of this child, when I was a child, I was taken away and sent to my adoptive father, like ordinary country children, when I can walk, I help with farm work, when I am older, I go to the town to find work when I am free, this year Chinese New Year's Eve, a wife, three children." I checked up the way, and after several twists and turns, I found the person who took him back then. ”
"The old lady is really capable, and she actually checked so many things quietly in two months."
In the face of Aunt Zhang's sarcasm, Old Madam Qiao only smiled slightly, "It is about the orthodoxy of my son and the Qiao family, so I naturally have to be cautious." ”
Everyone's attention was on the protagonists, but Qiao Sanye set his eyes on Qiao Lixi.
He finally brought the topic to the topic, and this girl's fluttering words distorted the topic.
They are now talking about the separation, not the truth or falsehood of the long house.
Regardless of whether the long house is real or fake, the Qiao family's property will be in the hands of the fourth room.
After dividing the family, let's discuss the authenticity of the long house again, and then make a fuss about the old lady, isn't it?
There are priorities, and the most important thing now and the most urgent thing to solve should not be to divide the Qiao family smoothly?
Third Master Qiao held his breath.
Previously, he had taken the initiative to bring the topic back once, and now he is going to drive the topic again, I don't know, I thought how eager he was to split up, and, looking at the current atmosphere, if the problem of the truth or falsehood of the long house is not solved, this family will not be divided.
However, this is fine, as long as it is handled well, this matter can bring more benefits to the house, but it will only delay some time.
No matter what everyone thought, Old Madam Qiao said slowly: "That child was taken out, and it changed hands several times in the middle, and now it is not easy to find those people, and several of them are dead. Fortunately, the spirit of heaven really allowed me to find the person who stole my child. ”
Faced with Aunt Zhang's disapproval, Mrs. Qiao smiled gently, "It's still an acquaintance, too, it's not that acquaintances can't do this kind of thing." ”
looked at the old patriarch, "People, I'm already locked up in the firewood room, old patriarch, do you call now or ......?"
The old patriarch frowned.
He came to split up today, but he didn't expect to be involved in this matter!
If it is not handled well, whether it is offending the concubine or the concubine, the consequences are very serious.
But if this matter is not resolved, the separation of the family cannot continue.
Gritting his teeth, the old patriarch said, "Since the person has been found, let's bring it first." ”
Soon after the words fell, an old woman came in.
He is in his fifties, his face is dark, and his wrinkled face is full of meanness and bitterness.
"She's ......," the old patriarch asked hesitantly.
Old Madam Qiao looked at Mama Gu, "Naturally, they are acquaintances, Mama Gu must know each other." ”
Mama Gu didn't even raise her eyelids, "Mrs. Hui, this old slave knows each other, and he is my sister in the countryside." ”
"It's good to know, I thought it was too long, and Mama Gu even forgot about her acquaintances. Old patriarch, this is Mama Gu's good sister in the countryside, the Lin family, when Mama Gu was not bought into the Qiao family, she was the best with the Lin family, even if she sold herself into the Qiao family, she did not cut off contact with the Lin family. Later, she became Aunt Zhang's face-saving grandmother, this Lin family didn't play the autumn breeze at Mama Gu back then, right, Mama Gu. ”
"Old lady, the Lin family is married to a hunter, when you and your aunt are pregnant, you have a picky appetite, and the old slave often buys game, and the old slave gave the Lin family this benefit because he was friendly with the Lin family. During that time, the Lin family did often go in and out of Qiao's house to deliver game, which was agreed by the master. ”
"Yes, that's what the lord agreed," Mrs. Qiao said meaningfully, "It's because the lord agreed, and the Lin family is a good talker, so in a short time, she can freely enter and leave Qiao's house, and take the opportunity to give me game." ”
Aunt Zhang looked at the old lady with a smile, as if she didn't understand the meaning of her words.
"Say it yourself." Old Madam Qiao looked at the Lin family.
