Returning the things in the big house, Long Pingbo didn't have the same big opinion as his wife, it was originally his brother's thing, and it was nothing for his nephew. However, Zhang Hu asked the Zheng family and Shuntian Mansion Yin to come over, and it was too much.

"You want, to put it mildly, what are you going to do with these outsiders? If I have a mother, can I still take advantage of you as a junior? ”

Mrs. Long Pingbo was dissatisfied with her husband's words, and added: "Even if the old lady is not there, we have our own silver, and it is not rare to take advantage of you." ”

This is very reasonable, and the old lady also went to say Zhang Hu: "I didn't have much contact with the Zheng family before, and your brothers and sisters trusted them so much, it's too reckless." ”

Zhang Hu clenched his fists, and Zhang Binglian immediately said: "So that grandmother knows, it has nothing to do with trust." invited official people, people from the Zheng family, and the second uncle and grandmother to be present, just in case the Zheng family was also greedy for a little cheap. ”

Yes, the little thing that Dafang got has already been estimated to be worth with Zhang Binglian's counting ability, and it definitely does not exceed 10,000 taels. In the past few years, according to her observations, most of the second aunts have used the shop in the big house to make profits for the second aunt's own marriage, which is really not worth the Zheng family's greed.

As soon as Zhang Binglian's words fell, Long Pingbo's face was not very good. The old lady was relieved, but immediately, tears couldn't help but slide down.

What is relieved is that the eldest granddaughter is not stupid, and while guarding the Zheng family, she also guards against the second son's family. Sadly, the second son and his family are greedy for the orphans and widows of the big house, and they let people know that the two houses have clearly given birth to a disagreement.

"Then divide it, and divide my belongings as well."

The old man sighed and made a decision.

The old lady spoke, and because of filial piety, Long Pingbo, who was not easy to refuse, had to go back to prepare. Zhang Binglian motioned to her younger brother to help the old lady, and she also helped the side.

"Grandmother, you are the best grandmother in the world, and the best mother."

In a word, the old lady's tears flowed even more fiercely.

Zhang Hu followed what his sister taught in advance, thinking about the suffering of these years, tears fell and fell into the hands of the old lady. The boy said, "My father went early, and my grandson knew early that it was more difficult than others, and he was ready." The difficulties on the side, the grandson can be calm, but the black hand from the relatives is really ......"

As soon as the old lady heard what was in this, she hurriedly asked: "You said that the black hand of your relatives, what did your second uncle and aunt really do?" ”

Zhang Hu said: "It's a matter of the shop." ”

"The shop is far away in Jiangnan, how do you know that there is something wrong with the shop?" The old lady was shrewd and immediately seized the loophole.

Zhang Binglian answered: "Grandmother has heard of Mrs. Yao?" ”

The old lady bowed her head and said, "How can you not know?" A pleasing owner. ”

Yao Feifei crowned Jiangnan with her maiden name, and Yao Ji's jewelry changed hands with her marriage. How brilliant Yao Ji used to be, but now he is more lonely, replaced by pleasing himself, Yao Feifei's personal pleasing self. Even the old lady can find two pieces of jewelry that please herself. It is simple and unassuming, and the old lady loves it very much.

Zhang Binglian smiled, although no one could see clearly in the dark, she still smiled happily, she said: "Mrs. Yao and Mrs. Zheng San are close friends, and they are both the righteous daughters of Shaoqing of Dali Temple Road. The granddaughter is married to Zheng Siye, and she is a matchmaker made by Mrs. Zheng San, so she has several relationships with Mrs. Yao. She has only been here from Jiangnan for less than a year, and said that many people in Jiangnan sell shops, and suggested that we should not sell them. I'm really optimistic about Shuntianfu, and I will open another one in Shuntianfu. ”

The old lady thought of Yao Feifei's wealth rumored by others, so she said: "That's a money-hungry master, it's right to listen to her." ”

Another reason why the old man said this is that she herself does not approve of selling shopfronts.

At this time, Zhang Binglian said: "She casually gave an example, saying that on Danfeng Street on the south side of the Drum Tower, it is a pity that the family is smaller." ”

"Such a coincidence? Qi Ji's deed is in my hand, what else can I do? ”

"Naturally, it's rented out. Mrs. Yao said that she was going to rent the lot she liked, but the price was 3,200 a year, but the store refused. Although I don't know much, I also know that the rent of 3,000 taels is really not low. ”

There are indeed a lot, that is the shop that the old lady bought single-handedly when she was in Jiangnan, and she knows exactly what the previous income is.

Zhang Binglian said again: "Mrs. Yao is stubborn, I want to know who grabbed the store in the picture, and when the new store opens, I will see that it is a cloth shop - Mrs. Yao said that there are enough cloth shops on that street, and there is more than this one, and in the case of Yingtianfu's population going to two or three percent, she can earn three thousand taels a year, which is already very good." It took her some interpersonal relationships to learn that it was Long Pingbo's shop, and she gave it to Mrs. Long Pingbo for free. This kind of left-handed to right-handed, or partial daughter-in-law, Mrs. Yao has no opinion, but the opening of the cloth village is not as good as the dim sum shop, so she can't look down on it. ”

Only then did the old lady understand that Yao Feifei deliberately said it to her granddaughter.

Zhang Binglian paused, and then said: "This happened to be known by her granddaughter, what if she didn't know?" Until now, I don't hide it from my grandmother, and in the past few years, very little of my brother's education expenses have been paid by the government. But there are extras, such as study tours, which are all dowry silver taken by my mother. Since the age of twelve, her granddaughter has been in contact with the porcelain business since she was in Yingtianfu. took advantage of going north, brought a lot of goods into Beijing, and really made a profit. ”

How many people have entered Beijing over the years! New house and new utensils, how normal it is, Zhang Binglian said simply, Mrs. Zhang knows the benefits of this. At this moment, the old lady's nature of valuing money was unobstructed.

Zhang Binglian's next words proved the old lady's guess.

"To put it mildly, the granddaughter's dowry is nothing, and it won't be much of a greeting." What's more, there are two thousand taels that Zheng Cong filled in private!

Zhang Binglian thought warmly.

She agreed to separate the big house before becoming a monk, which was to repay Zheng Cong. Her mother's family is enough to have a younger brother and mother. People with power like her second uncle and aunt should not be entangled!

"We don't want anything else, but what my grandfather left to the big house is not only for Brother Hu, but also for my father! Grandmother, Dad is such a nice person. ”

When it came to her father, Zhang Binglian was rarely excited. In the dark, the girl's tone was so affirmative, she said: "If you can exchange Wanguan furniture for your father, your granddaughter will not hesitate!" ”

The old lady burst into tears.

The early death of the eldest son is also a pain in my heart! She has always been partial to the two children in the big house, in addition to the pain of the two children, the eldest son died to save the second son, which is the main reason.

The old man told her the truth, but he only told her to hurt the two children a lot; didn't let her talk about it, but she didn't want to call Dafang's two sons any prejudice against their uncle. After all, the father is gone, and the only uncle that the two children can rely on in the future is the only one.

Split up, the old lady is already very determined at this time.

She wants to see if the second child has done anything to be sorry for the boss!

Long Pingbo and his wife discussed for a night, and felt that although the emperor was far away, he was sure that something would go wrong, and this family was still not divided. Mrs. Long Pingbo began to run to her mother's house, and Long Pingbo went to find the clan - the Zhang family's clan was in his hometown, but there was no one in the capital.

Husbands and wives have their own problems.

Long Pingbo was told by his cousin that on the day of the separation again, he would also go, and Mrs. Long Pingbo was splashed with water by his mother.

"If you can't mess up this family matter, you can put me on the pole and pick it up!"

As a result, without waiting for Mrs. Long Pingbo to stir up the yellow marriage, the big house and the second room of Long Pingbo's mansion were separated, which not only made everyone know, but also pointed all the fingers at the second room, the current Long Pingbo.
