Yuzhu wiped the sweat running out of her forehead, and said in one breath, "Miss, the incense basket you hung under the porch was knocked over by a wild cat, and the incense was scattered all over the ground, and the slaves and maids didn't dare to move, so go back and take a look!" ”

"Go back! Don't let the wildcats spoil what you've worked so hard to make! ”

"Good!" Xu Shu followed Yuzhu out of Puyuxuan, "What's wrong?" What's wrong? ”

Yuzhu said, "Miss Xu Shi is here!" ”

"The tenth sister is here?" Xu Shu was surprised, why did Xu Shu suddenly come to the Zheng family? And it's this time of year, it's getting dark, and there must be something important.

"Miss Xu Shi's face is not very good, the slave is afraid that Miss Xu Shi will point fingers at the door, so she takes the lead and brings people to the courtyard, and now Yinzhi is with her!"

"Let's go back!"

Xu Shu hurried to the Begonia Pavilion, and sure enough, she saw Xu Xiao with an anxious face, and after a closer look, there were still traces of tears in her red eyes, and she was shocked, Xu Xiao is a strong temper, but she will not cry when she is idle, she must have encountered a major event.

As soon as she saw Xu Shu enter the door, Xu Shu immediately stood up and ran over, "Ninth sister, something happened to the eldest sister!" ”

Xu Yao's "Ninth Sister" made Yinzhi look sideways, and who is this "eldest sister"? Yinzhi was very curious, and saw that Yuzhu was standing at the door and didn't follow up, so she hurriedly retreated and closed the door with her hand.

"What's wrong with the eldest sister? You sit down and talk! Seeing that Xu Shu got up too quickly and almost tripped over her skirt, Xu Shu hurriedly helped her and pressed her to the chair again.

"Mother wants to take the eldest sister's field as a dowry for the seventh sister!" Xu Wei stomped her feet resentfully.

"What's going on?" Xu Shu frowned slightly, "Shouldn't Xu Ting's dowry have been prepared a long time ago?" "Xu Ting and Qi Rui's marriage has been set for several years, and this wedding date has been set a long time ago, if it weren't for the emperor's decree to choose a side concubine for King Qing, now Xu Ting is already the fourth young grandmother of the Qi family, how can the dowry not be ready until now?

"The dowry of the seventh sister has been prepared a long time ago and sent to the grandmother, and the grandmother has also seen it and nodded! But here's the problem! Father's performance evaluation last year was poor, today was moved to an idle errand, grandmother has the heart to do something for his father, but there is no thing in his hand, but the dowry of the seventh sister was sent to the grandmother, the grandmother took a land deed out, and when the dowry list was returned to the mother, the mother found that something was missing, so she went to ask the grandmother, and the grandmother did not hide it, so she directly admitted that she took it! ”

"There's no way if you don't admit it, but the thing was lost by her!" Xu Shu chuckled, "The old lady dares to admit it so readily, it's because the title deed has been given away, and even if Mrs. Xu knows it, there is nothing she can do!" ”

Xu Wan nodded, "Ninth sister, you're absolutely right!" Grandmother was completely helpless, although she admitted that she took the thing, but the thing had been given away, and it was for the father, the mother couldn't speak anymore, so she could only try her best to make up the dowry of the seventh sister, but the public couldn't take out much land, and the mother's land was to be left to the seventh brother, so the mother started the idea of the eldest sister! ”

"Has the Xu family fallen to this point? Do you even have to pay bribes to start the idea of giving a dowry to a married woman? ”

"Actually, that land is not the eldest sister's!" Xu Shu pursed her lips and looked at Xu Shu with some resentment.

"What do you mean by that, Tenth Sister?"

"The land is yours!"

Xu Shu suddenly realized, she married and left Beijing, and gave a part of her industry to Xu Jing, this matter Li must know, now there is a lack of money, so she started this part of the industry, for the Peach Blossom Villa, the Li family forced the willow to death, and now for a field, what do you have to do to lose your conscience?

"What does Mrs. Xu want to do?"

"What else can be done? Mother wants that land again, but the land is in the hands of the eldest sister, and it is impossible to rob it, and the eldest sister is a soft and not hard character, so the mother goes to Zizhu Courtyard every day to cry, and the crying eldest sister is annoyed, and she never lets go, and refuses to give your land to the seventh sister! ”

"Isn't that good? The eldest sister knows that I have suffered for Xu Ting, how can I let Xu Ting grab half of my things again! Xu Shu didn't hear what happened to Xu Ting.

"The mother said that she couldn't move the eldest sister, so she took the seventh brother with her, saying that if the eldest sister didn't make up the seventh sister's dowry, she would take the seventh brother's things to make up for it! The eldest sister no longer dislikes her mother and the Xu family, but she still favors the seventh brother, so she relents! Xu Jing pursed her lips, if it weren't for Xu Jing's soft-hearted and submissive intentions, she wouldn't have come to Xu Shu.

"I gave those things to the eldest sister, and the eldest sister is in charge, and the eldest sister can give it if she wants to!" Xu Shu sighed in her heart, once upon a time, she also tolerated the Xu family again and again because of Xu Hua, but in the end, she still lost her patience, and one day, Xu Jing will also understand this truth, Xu Jing is the smartest among their sisters, and she doesn't need to break it.

"But ninth sister, do you think it will stop if your mother asks for a piece of land from the eldest sister today?"

No!

Xu Shu can give an answer almost without hesitation, she knows the Li family too well, once the Li family tastes the sweetness from Xu Jing, it will follow endless taking, until Xu Jing is squeezed cleanly!

"Ninth sister, it was a kindness for you to give those things to the eldest sister, but others can't tolerate your kindness! In my mother's heart, you should leave all those things to the seventh brother, and now that she got these things from the eldest sister, she will not be grateful at all, she will only feel that she has taken back what should have belonged to her! ”

"Don't worry! The eldest sister won't just indulge Mrs. Xu like that, there is always a limit! "Spending a little money, so that Xu Jing completely lost her mind about the Xu family, and will never be restrained by the Xu family again, Xu Shu only thinks that this little thing is worth it!

"Ninth sister, the eldest sister is not like you!" Xu Wei's face suddenly became a little complicated, in fact, she didn't want to say this, but it was the truth.

"You are alone, you have nothing to worry about, but the eldest sister has children and daughters, she can't be as free and easy as you, she is now a widow, and she has a falling out with her husband's family, if she cuts off contact with her mother's family again, she doesn't care, but she always has to think about Brother Zan and Ah Qi! Brother Zan is now studying with the children and grandchildren of the Li family, and has offended the Xu family, isn't the eldest sister afraid that the Li family will embarrass Brother Zan on the other side? and Ah Qi is also ten years old, the eldest sister is bound by her identity and can't get out, someone has to lead Ah Qi out to walk! ”

"So you came to me to ask me to think of a way for the eldest sister to stop the Xu family's claim without offending the Xu family?" Xu Shu seemed to understand Xu Shu's intention.
