Old man Cheng nodded, and Steward Qi followed behind with his head down, but when he saw the door of this mansion wide open, ordinary people had already realized that something was wrong, and Old Patriarch Cheng was a burst of judgment: "This huge mansion, the door is open, and there is no one to take care of it, how is he a home!" ”

The voice is not small, and it can be heard clearly when it comes in, and several subordinates are silent, they don't say anything, they just take care of themselves.

Old man Cheng is the first time to come back here, I have heard a few people in the township who have been to Qi You's marriage banquet talk about this big mansion with two in and two out, and the couple in Lizheng praised the world again, for fear that he, the patriarch, would not know the origin of these juniors.

"Such a big house is for others to live in! I don't think he has his own family in his eyes! ”

Several children were sent to the backyard when they came back from school, Geng Rong and the others were busy with the new shop outside, and there were only two couples left in the main hall, scooping tea and drinking tea from each other.

Before the old man arrived, several words came in, and every sentence was still critical.

Guo Ruyi really wanted to laugh, and said in a low voice: "I haven't seen such a person yet, Qi You has to let him discipline a few words even if he becomes an emperor in his eyes." ”

Zhixing immediately said in a straight voice: "Be cautious! ”

Guo Ruyi glanced at him with disgust.

Zhixing smiled, lowered his head and responded, "You are right, but when Qi You was a child, I didn't see him come to discipline so often. ”

A few people knew that this old patriarch was doing well, and they couldn't help but laugh when they were broken by Guo Ruyi at the moment, although they were a little guilty, but they were right, the bigger Qi Youguan did, the better this old man became.

The two quickly walked to the courtyard, and when they saw that there were people sitting in the main hall, the old man immediately frowned, how is this a pie? The door is open, and the host is still sitting in the main hall talking and laughing?

He was about to speak, but saw Chungui stand up and said with a smile: "Old man Cheng is here?" Come and sit down, I haven't seen you in a few days. ”

Being treated so politely, the old man felt a little more refreshed, coughed lightly, and came over quite dignified, but he still preached.

"What is this door open for!"

Chungui chuckled: "The old man is a little more angry this early morning, but now I am in charge, whether this house is open or not, or who lives in it, I am arranging, if the old man wants to say it, just say me, don't wronged Qi You." ”

She was smiling with a smile on her face, and her words were respectful on her face, but she heard that Old Man Cheng's ears were always different.

"You're in charge? You are a woman in charge of this huge house?! He was in a hurry: "You are a woman! Whose Lord did it! ”

The expression on Chungui's face did not change, and Zhixing had already snorted coldly: "This is ridiculous, this family has always been my sister-in-law's master, and the old man knows it for the first time?" ”

Guo Ruyi also immediately followed: "Even if we want Sister Yue next door to be in charge, why is the old man so fussed." ”

Glancing at the past, it seemed to say that this old man was nosy and had gone to another house.

Old Man Cheng's high-end appearance was cracked by these words: "...... Ridiculous! ”

"How can the Cheng family let a woman be the master of the house!" looked at Guo Ruyi who was sitting upright, talking about the Cheng family, but this look clearly referred to Guo Ruyi.

When this sentence fell, the faces of several people in the main hall were lowered, Guo Ruyi sneered in his heart, this old man is really pedantic and bad-hearted, she has not been angry since she was a child, and she immediately wants to go back.

Before she could open her mouth, Qi You on the other side had already put down the tea bowl and looked at the old man coldly: "Patriarch said carefully, if it weren't for Sister Chun being the master of the house, Qi You would have starved to death two years ago!" ”

Speaking of two years ago, the old patriarch had no reason to speak. Two years ago, when I was hungry, I didn't see you in such a big battle to help, and now when he becomes an official, he comes to refute his face, which is ridiculous.

Before the old patriarch blushed, Qi You glanced at the Qi steward who was following behind and didn't dare to make a sound, and continued: "Besides, if there is no Sister Chun, how can there be a patriarch who is now going to other families to make my face everywhere to grow face, and there is no time for you to come to support others today." ”

This sentence points out the intention of the two.

Old Man Cheng reacted slowly, but the Qi steward who had crooked thoughts behind him was a little weak-hearted.

Qi You stood up and motioned to Cheng Zhong, who was sweeping in the yard after reporting the letter and coming back, to bring Liu Yi out.

Liu Yi's hands have been loosened, and he has languished after only one session, and his eyes are still red when he was brought out by Cheng Zhong, and he is no longer the same as when he was swaying in the past.

As soon as he came out, Steward Qi's face changed suddenly, and as he thought, this Liu Yi was really escorted over to confess.

Looking at the coldness in Qi You's eyes again, he couldn't help but shudder, this step to find Old Patriarch Cheng didn't seem to work......

But what other way is there now, who else can you rely on if you don't rely on this old man?

Qi You swept the expressions of the two of them into his eyes, and said lightly: "Do you have anything to say about Qi Guan?" ”

Steward Qi's face was panicked, and he swallowed his throat: "Big ...... Adults, I hope that adults will open up their ......"

Zhixing sneered in the back: "You recognize it refreshingly." ”

"This Cheng Yi has almost been recruited, Cheng Xing and Cheng Wang took the lead, and they instigated it, this crime is not small, Qi is in charge!"

Steward Qi was so frightened by this sentence that his legs weakened, and he pulled the corner of Old Man Cheng's clothes behind him.

The old man wanted to help with this, and immediately bluffed and said: "This matter has not yet come to the fore, how can you decide not to say a word to Qi You!" ”

Hearing this, Xing immediately laughed: "I said old man, your elbow is long!" You can help an outsider who has nothing to do with it, but this blood relative is embarrassed in every way, what's the matter? Tossing Qi You, can you make your old face shine? Or do you point to Cheng Xing and Cheng Wang to help you retire and send you to the end of your life? ”

Old Man Cheng was knocked out, and he was immediately so angry that he stretched out his hand and pointed straight at Zhixing: "Our own business!" I need you to say it! ”

"Joke! I'm an official, where can't I say a few words in the two counties of Songyu, not to mention that this Cheng Xingcheng Wang started to disturb the decree of the Holy Lord, and it is a state affair! What a family affair! ”

He immediately put away his smiling face and looked at the two of them with a solemn gaze. When he got serious, he was as talkative as he used to be.

The sentence "the crime is a state affair" has made the Qi Governor sweat coldly.

The place on the outskirts of the town is the official kiln, and if you calculate in the official kiln, the charges can be said to be big, and they are all in the mouths of Qi You and Zhixing.

Only the old man Cheng was trapped in the circle of "lintel honor and disgrace", and he opened his mouth and pulled again:

"Ah Xing Ngawang is your brother! When they entered the cell, they lost the face of the Cheng family! ”

There is also a bit of bitterness.

"Brother?" Qi You chuckled suddenly.

"Naturally, brothers! Ah Xing Awang has already passed to the Cheng family, why aren't they brothers?! ”

Qi You glanced at the empty-eyed Qi steward and asked, "Since it is a succession, can there be a household registration document to prove it?" ”

When the sentence fell, the face of the Qi steward really froze.

According to what Ah Ren said, Steward Qi signed a death deed and sold himself, in order not to bring his two sons before he announced that he had succeeded to the Cheng family, although the words were released, but who didn't know that Cheng Xing Cheng Wang still lived in the town, shouting at Steward Qi's father one by one.

In this way, this household registration document is really a bit suspenseful.

After this question, sure enough, the paperwork has not been passed, this Qi steward's abacus is shrewd, the household registration has not changed, and the surname above is naturally still the Qi family, but what is the role of the verbal surname Cheng. Waiting for this old man to be a hundred years later, who in the Cheng family still cares about Cheng Xing and Cheng Wang.

used the Cheng family's origin to escape the slave body, and now he wants to use the name of the Cheng family to coerce him, and the method of managing things is also powerful.

But the old man Cheng bowed his head as if he was lowering: "What's the matter with the paperwork!" Ah Xing Awang already has the surname Cheng, that is the person of our Cheng family! ”

As soon as these words came out, the three people behind Qi You were all indifferent, and this patriarch was already hopeless.

Qi You said coldly: "Yes, who doesn't know that the patriarch has never regarded documents as a thing, this was the case with my letter of severance at the beginning, and now this household registration document is the same." Qi You took a step forward and said softly: "According to the patriarch's intentions, does it matter whether to abolish the patriarch's document?" ”

……

looked at the two of them again, they were already stunned, and they didn't seem to understand Qi You's words.

“…… Waste...... Abrogate?! ”

Qi You's face was not obvious, but his voice became more and more cold: "Cheng Xing Cheng Wang, in order to seek his own selfish interests, instigated the replacement of the official kiln workers, which caused the progress of the official kiln to be delayed, which is not conducive to state affairs, and you, as the patriarch of the Cheng clan, have many favoritisms to criminals with foreign surnames, and are even more suspected of concealing and not reporting." ”

"Old man Cheng, do you really not know the stakes of this matter or do you not know it? How can I, Cheng Qiyou, tell you to persecute without thinking about judgment? ! ”

No longer the bitter appearance he had just spoken, Old Man Cheng stumbled under his feet, almost didn't stand firm, and when he looked at Qi You again, his face was already furious, mixed with a bit of unbelievable panic.

He opened his mouth several times before he spoke: "You little ...... How old are you...... If you become an official, you will forget your ancestors! Disrespect for the ancestors! I've been a patriarch for decades, and you dare to abolish it?! ”

He didn't have any support for his legs, and he didn't fall down until he was supported by the Qi Steward behind him. But the Qi steward was no better, his eyes were no longer focused, and he was going back and forth in a panic. Qi You said sentence after sentence, even if the old patriarch is abolished, he must handle the case impartially, and even conclude this matter as a state matter, how can his two sons have a future at all, and if they don't die, they will lose half their lives!

"Forget the classics, disrespect the elders, the old man can be charged as many times as he wants, only the sue will be fulfilled, and I, Cheng Qiyou, will resign immediately!"

"Only old man, if this crime can't be settled, you can't keep the position of patriarch!"

Qi You looked at the old man in front of him calmly and calmly: "I will give you a face today, you take the initiative to resign, and others have no way of knowing." ”

Old Man Cheng has long lost his high-end appearance, panting, the resentment in his eyes can be seen at a glance, and the kindness that he pretends to be on weekdays has faded, and his original form is probably revealed.

This appearance makes Qi You look more comfortable, not as awkward as in the past.

The old man finally spoke: "...... I was right, you're a white-eyed wolf! ”

"There are so many children, you are the only one who sent a letter of dismemberment, and there is no ancestral kindness in your eyes, and you live with outsiders!"

"Later, even more, after high school, I don't worship the ancestral hall and don't respect the same clan, what's the use of getting ahead like you!"

Qi You listened quietly, and suddenly it dawned on him that this old man really hated him since he sent him the letter of renunciation.
