Chapter 244: The matter of separating the family is finally on the agenda
Chu Yaocen said to her distressedly: "We can't continue to stay here and be bullied, let's go, let's go to our father and grandma to make decisions for us." ”
Qingdi answered, put on his clothes, and was led by Chu Yaocen to go to the He family to settle accounts.
In fact, after Mrs. Chu came back, Chu Chengguan didn't care much about the affairs of the Chu family's back house. Originally, considering that the He family was not very fair to Chu Yaocen, he would occasionally intervene, but now that the old lady is here, she is in charge of everything, and it is not good to meddle by herself.
But tonight, Chu Yaocen called him up and asked him to do justice for the abbot of Qingdi. Not only him, but the old lady and the He family, Chu Linyuan, Duanmu and Yingkong, as long as the Chu family can speak, all of them have been called.
The old lady got up angry, although she couldn't get angry with this grandson, she was not very happy in her heart, and asked him: "Yao Cen, why are you so late and tossing our whole family?" ”
As soon as He Shi saw Qingdi standing beside him, he guessed that Chu Yaocen must have come to intercede for Qingdi, and immediately snorted coldly: "What else can you do, you see that he brought Qingdi out, he must have come to intercede with you." After she finished speaking to the old lady, she looked at Chu Yaocen again and said, "Yaocen, this is your mistake, although I know that you are young and energetic, but you can't be so willful, what's wrong with you and Qingdi for a few nights?" Is it so panicked? If it's really uncomfortable, you go to Bai Qingqing, anyway, you have to marry her sooner or later. And ah, you can't live without the green flute every night, it's not good for your health. ”
"Shut up for me." Chu Yaocen glanced at her coldly and interrupted her words in a light tone.
He Shi was stunned for a long time, and it took him a long time to react, and he hurriedly said to the old lady with a bitter face: "Mother-in-law, look at it, look at how he talked to me?" Although I am not his biological mother, but I have watched him grow up, for so many years, I owe him nothing, although he is just a concubine, in my eyes he is just like Lin Yuan, I think about him everywhere, everything is for him, but he ......"
"Okay, okay, I know you're working hard." The old lady didn't want to listen to her complains anymore, so she held her hand and comforted her, she knew that when Chu Yaocen was stupid before, he knew that he respected his elders, and now that he has regained his senses, he naturally will not treat He like this without reason, he will be like this tonight, he must have received something unbearable. So he asked him, "Yaocen, what's wrong with you tonight?" Why is there such a big anger? ”
"Grandma, you all suspect that Qingdi killed someone, but let me ask you, did you really find evidence that Qingdi killed someone?" Chu Yaocen looked at the old lady and asked.
The old lady shook her head and said, "No, grandma didn't punish Qingdi, she just locked her up." Our Chu family has strict family rules, even if it is a maid, you can't die for no reason. Now Qingdi is the most suspicious, I lock her up, do you have any opinions? ”
"Naturally, there is no opinion, but since it has not been found out that Qingdi is the murderer, why did someone send someone to kill Qingdi? It was also said that Qingdi would be executed. ”
"Oh? Is there such a thing? The old lady didn't seem to believe it, and looked at Qingdi, and after a while, her face turned pale. The old lady asked Qingdi, "Tell me, who wants to kill you?" ”
Qingdi glanced up at He and said, "Those family members wanted to kill me in the past, and I asked them who sent them, and they thought I was going to die, so they told me...... It was none other than the woman sitting next to Grandma. ”
Qingdi raised his hand and pointed at He, and said to the old lady with a twisted eyebrow.
When He Shi heard this, he hurriedly shouted that he was wronged, and said: "No, I sent someone to send Qingdi to that courtyard today, and I rested, I didn't do anything!" ”
"You didn't? Qingdi's injuries are still there, if you don't have it, is it me who beat it? Chu Yaocen sneered and said, "If you really didn't do anything, why did you lock Qingdi in that remote place, aren't you just doing it for convenience?" ”
"I ......"
"Give me a stop!" The old lady couldn't stand it anymore, and glanced at He Shi, who was about to stand up and pinched her waist, pointing at Qingdi and Chu Yaocen and scolding: "You are also the housewife, pay attention to your manners!" ”
He had no choice but to sit back and said aggrievedly: "Mother-in-law, don't blame, I'm too anxious, I never like to be slandered." ”
"No one likes to be slandered, but no one likes to be bullied." When the old lady said this, He immediately blushed and stopped talking. Everyone was silent for a moment, and the old lady looked at Chu Chengguan again, and said, "Chengguan, you come to decide this matter, what do you think should be done?" ”
Chu Chengguan had been busy all day during the day, and now he was very tired, and he really didn't want to care about this matter. But think about it again, Chu Yaocen is so filial on weekdays, and he thinks about him everywhere, and today he insists on calling him over despite his hard work, which must be unbearable.
Thinking about everything that happened before, the He family shot at Qingdi again and again, and he was not unaware of this matter, and He always sent all kinds of women to Chu Yaocen's side, wanting to destroy the relationship between Qingdi and Yaocen, and he also knew something about it. He really didn't understand, why did the He family target these two children everywhere, was it because he brought Yao Cen's mother back more than 20 years ago?
Hey, Chu Cheng sighed with concern, he was too busy before, he really didn't have time to take care of it, and he was thinking about home and everything, so he never made it clear, and he could get by with one eye and one eye closed. Now that it's been a problem, it seems that we have to treat it well.
"In my opinion, it doesn't matter who is right or wrong in this matter." Chu Chengguan thought about it for a long time and said: "You are all my family, I think that the family is still good with Hele after all, so I have never delved into many things." But today, Yao Cen called everyone over, making such a big formation, if I don't care about it anymore, then I'm sorry Yao Cen. ”
After Chu Chengguan finished speaking, he paused for a while, looked up at the old lady, and then his eyes drifted to his two sons, and finally said, "Split up." ”
"What? Separation? The old lady looked at Chu Chengguan in surprise and asked, "Have you thought clearly?" ”
Chu Chengguan nodded: "Mother, when we were young, our family was poor, and when the brothers grew up, wouldn't we split up immediately?" Thinking back to the time, it seems that I came out at the age of fourteen or fifteen, Yao Cen and Lin Yuan, both in their twenties, should be able to take charge on their own. ”
The old lady recalled the previous time, it was indeed like this, at the beginning, her sons were very young to go to the world, and later they all did something, of course, Chu Chengguan's deeds were the greatest. Before she lived with her husband, after the death, Chu Chengguan and several sons had to take her back to live, she refused to agree, several sons were unwilling, and finally had to agree to live here in Chu Chengguan for a month or two during the Chinese New Year, and when the weather warmed, she would immediately go back to the temple.
She thought for a while, then looked at her two grandsons and asked, "This matter is very important, and it is so sudden, you two little guys, are you willing?" ”
Chu Linyuan and Chu Yaocen glanced at each other, and Chu Yaocen spoke first: "Grandma, although the eldest brother still lives in the Chu family's house, the eldest brother has already relied on his own ability to do business. ”
"That's right," Chu Chengguan nodded, and said, "Lin Yuan has already been in charge of his own affairs a long time ago, and now he is still doing things under my name, just restricting his fists and feet, after the separation, it will definitely be good for him." ”
Chu Yaocen hurriedly continued his words and said: "Although I have just taken over the business, my father and eldest brother must have known my ability, plus the time to help me, Qingdi has been appreciated by His Majesty, I think I can also make a name for myself." ”
The old lady still didn't know whether Chu Yaocen had the ability or not, but when she saw Chu Yaocen daring to think and do, she was still very happy in her heart, nodded with a smile, and said to Chu Chengguan: "In this case, you divide the business under your hands and share some of the family property, don't treat my two precious grandsons badly." ”
He Shi's heart had already reached his throat when they talked about the topic of family separation just now, and now he was even more panicked when he heard that he was going to divide the family property. Why should this property be divided? Lin Yuan is the eldest son, he also has a son, Chu Yaocen is a daughter, not his biological birth, where is he qualified to get property from the Chu family?
But seeing that the overall situation was about to be decided, He was in a hurry and hurriedly said: "Mother-in-law, master, have you forgotten?" Qingdi still has a human life on his hand, is that it? ”
"I didn't kill that man." Qingdi said to her with a frown.
He Shi glanced at her and said, "This matter is not clear, it is not certain whether you killed it, so it is better not to split up for the time being, and then make plans when this matter is clarified." ”
"Why bother with this? Even if it is found out that it was killed by Qingdi, will it do you any good? Chu Chengguan glanced at He Shi lightly, she was targeting Qingdi, and it was too obvious that she was targeting the ground.
"But ......" He looked at the old lady aggrievedly, and said: "It was my mother-in-law who said that when you encounter this kind of thing, you must deal with it impartially, otherwise, the people of this Chu family will not obey my discipline in the future." ”
"If you are not convinced, you will hand over this trivial matter to Chuxue. Chu Xue is kind-hearted and will be able to convince people with virtue. ”
Chu Chengguan's words were obviously saying that the He family was calculating, and he had no virtue and no deeds. When He Shi heard this, she was about to cry aggrieved, she looked at Chu Chengguan with great loss, in this family, Chu Chengguan's doting on Chu Yaocen was simply more than anything else.
Qingdi just sneered at the bottom, the He family grabbed the dead maid and dragged it on her, she hadn't pulled the matter of the He family sending someone to kill her, but she was also on an errand in the palace now, and she was still a court official!
Qingdi was sneering, and suddenly heard someone coming in behind him and said, "The white girl asks to see." ”
When Chu Yaocen and Qingdi heard the news, they couldn't help but glance at each other, and both of them had some worry in their eyes. She came here suddenly, there must have been nothing good.
