Shen Wangxin didn't know whether to cry or laugh, Zhang Yaozu was a Beijing official, and even the state government couldn't control him. How can she get her 1,000 taels back? What's even more infuriating is that this mere 1,000 taels is like a stone throwing in the eyes of others, and there is no sound after a "plop".

Shen Wangxin was frowning sadly, and Li Zheng extinguished the smoke over there, and assured Shen Wangxin: "Heart girl, don't worry, although I can't help the old man over there, but on the big house, I have a way to cure them." Make sure they send you back your money! ”

"What's the solution?" It would be nice to get the money back.

"I've heard that the merchant in Kowloon Village wants to sell the forest to the big house at double the price." Rizheng said.

The meaning of Li Zheng is naturally clear to Shen Wangxin. In order to keep his position as the patriarch, Dafang has begun to break it off. The last time, I wanted to exchange myself for the forest, but when I couldn't make a plan, I grabbed my own silver to buy it.

"After buying the forest, I still let the villagers go into the forest to look for things, all the same as before." Li Zheng showed a disdainful smile on his face, "But this is not without conditions, originally he was going to retire this year and elect a new patriarch from the clan." Now, he used Lin Zi as a bargaining chip, demanding that his eldest son succeed him as patriarch. ”

Although it is just a forest, Xitou Village relies on the mountains to eat the mountains, in addition to planting some food, if you want to open a small stove, you can get mountain goods from the mountains. Therefore, at first glance, it sounds like it is just the ownership of a forest, but in the eyes of the villagers of Xitou Village, it is a big deal.

If the patriarch really takes this forest as a condition, the position of the patriarch will most likely belong to his eldest son.

Shen Wangxin and the eldest son of the patriarch are now completely married, and the Sanfang family is burdened by themselves, and they have also offended the big house. If he really became the patriarch, he would have to trouble them for many years.

"Third grandfather, in the final analysis, it's because you have affected you." Shen Wangxin sighed helplessly.

Li Zheng shook his head and frowned: "It's none of your business, Dafang hates me for taking away their position in Li Zheng for many years." My eldest brother is too old to toss and move, and when his son takes office, he will always find an opportunity to pinch me. ”

Shen Wangxin sighed, it seems that this time she can't do anything, let the position of the patriarch fall into the hands of Dafang. Especially thinking that the money that Dafang bought from Jiulong Village was still snatched from her, she felt unhappy for a while.

"Third grandfather, the eldest son of the patriarch is not a good person, if he is allowed to be the patriarch, even the other houses will suffer." Shen Wuxin suddenly looked up at Li Zheng, and the gaze in his eyes became firm, "Since we have to find a way to prevent him from becoming the patriarch, it is better to simply stop doing it and let Uncle Xuanzi be the one directly." ”

"What do you say? Let Xuanzi be the one? Li Zheng was startled and looked at Shen Wangxin with uncertain eyes.

He thought that Shen Wangxin was a better person in Zaohui, and he usually talked to her, and he also treated her as half an adult. But he didn't expect that Shen Wangxin actually had such great courage and wanted to pull Dafang down from the position of patriarch.

It's not that he hasn't thought about it, but it's only in his heart. If you want to put it into practice, then he really doesn't have that plan, and he fought for the position of Lizheng back then, relying on his youth and vigor for a while, and he has been in the right position for decades.

It seems that he is really old, and his thinking has become conservative, and he is not an old person after all.

"But...... Xuanzi is just a fool, where did he become the patriarch? Li Zheng's face wrinkled into an orange, "Heart girl, you are not an outsider, I'll tell you the truth, your uncles are not good for big things." Even if they planted the fields, the patriarch really didn't dare to let them be.

Li Zheng waved his hand again and again.

Shen Xuan also kept shaking his head, and said anxiously: "No, heart girl, I can't do this!" ”

Shen Wangxin had expected them to react like this, but in fact, this idea had just come to her. Although the patriarch is a big responsibility, the Shen family is only a few hundred people, and they are just managers of enterprises in modern society.

Thinking of this, Shen Wangxin became a little more confident, and asked rhetorically: "Third grandfather, Uncle Xuanzi, think about it, how has the patriarch of this Shen family's big house been for so many years?" ”

"If you want me to say, it's really not good!" Rizheng replied immediately.

After answering, he was stunned again, he already understood what Shen Wangxin meant.

The Shen family's big house has been getting worse and worse from generation to generation over the years, and the patriarch's son is indeed not a thing. Instead of making him the patriarch, it is better to let his humble son be! At the very least, they have nothing else in the three rooms, but they have a heart that makes the Shen family better and better, although their ability is not very good, they will not insult the position of the patriarch!

Li Zheng sat on the chair, holding on to the armrest of the chair and pondering for a long time, and finally gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, just do as you say!" ”

Aunt Shen and her daughters-in-law finished washing the dishes and were putting the bowls in the cabinet, when they saw everyone's different faces, they couldn't help asking, "I'll wash the dishes, what's wrong with you?" One by one, they have a tiger face. “

Shen Wangxin looked back and smiled when he heard this: "Third grandmother, it's time for our family to have a happy event." ”

Aunt Shen became more and more curious, and asked, "What kind of happy event, you can tell me." ”

"Heaven must not be divulged." Shen Wangxin didn't plan to let too many people know at this time, it wasn't that she couldn't trust these people around her.

It's just that sometimes, it's better to be cautious. If it doesn't work, it won't make them happy.

As he spoke, Shen Wangxin and Aunt Shen went back to the room to rest.

Although the bed in Aunt Shen's room was very narrow, the two of them had to sleep together. The quilt on the bed is also a hard old quilt, but Shen Wangxin slept very comfortably, and got up the next morning, and felt a hundred times more energetic after breakfast.

After breakfast, I got good news.

It turned out that early in the morning, the steward of Hanshan Academy was asking around the village about Shen Wangxin's residence. The people in the village took him to Lizheng's house, and after he saw Shen Wangxin, he took out a silver bag from his arms, saying that it was the money from the sale of medicine and wine that had not been settled last time.
