Mai Xiaohuan really couldn't listen to it anymore, and besides, she couldn't meet her grandmother's requirements at all, so she wanted to withdraw first.

She wanted to leave, but unfortunately someone wouldn't let her! Wu jumped up like a rabbit and stretched out his arms to block Mai Xiaohuan's way: "The matter hasn't been clarified yet!" Where are you going? ”

"Can this still be explained? I can't meet my grandmother's requirements, and if I can have that house, you don't want it! That's at a cost. ”

Then you pay! A young master who is willing to buy a house and give it away must have other thoughts, if this girl climbs to such a rich master, there will be more places to follow the light in the future.

Mai Liu and Wu are now eager to tie up Mai Xiaohuan and send it to Xiaoquanzi in person. A granddaughter can get so many benefits, if only the girls in the family could have such luck.

"I really can't help you with the house and the errand matter, or you can find the village chief to talk about it! Let him take you to the county to ask for it, and whether you can win it depends on your own ability. ”

As the so-called people go to tea and cool, Xiaoquanzi is gone, and it may not be useful for him to ask the county guard or the county order now, let alone these people, not to mention the village chief's pass, they can't pass it.

"Speaking of the village chief, I remembered, the young master said that you let your father be the village chief, why did you refuse! Did you have a broken head, or didn't you wake up in the morning! ”

Before Mai Xiaohuan could talk, he heard someone snort coldly at the door and asked Wu: "Xiaohuan doesn't want his father to be the head of this village, should he give it to your Mai Xing!" ”

After Wu nodded confidently, he realized that it was not the Mai family who was talking to him at all. I looked at the door, oh my God! How did the village chief come.

The village chief heard that Mai Xiaohuan's family was found by her grandmother again, so he hurried to chase after him. Mai Xiaohuan is now equivalent to a benefactor in his eyes, and while protecting her, Pan Mingqiu is even more grateful that she did not take away the position of village chief, which exempted him from the embarrassing situation of being embarrassed in front of the whole village. If it weren't for Mai Xiaohuan, he would probably be the first village chief in the county to be dismissed in public.

Seeing that everyone kept their mouths shut, Pan Mingqiu asked Mai Xiaohuan if they were embarrassed, and if they had something to say, they could find themselves no matter what they were, no matter what time they were.

Mai Xiaohuan swept around with her eyes, where did Mai Liu dare to look at her now! They all turned their heads to look elsewhere. These people, let yourself say what is good about them!

"It's not a big deal, we're discussing grandma's birthday! My family has about one tael of silver, and my father also said that he will go up to the mountains to hunt in the past few days, and no matter what he catches, he will send it over and keep it for guests. The rest depends on the uncle, the third uncle and the two aunts. ”

I'm afraid this Mai Liu family wants Xiao Huan's family to cover all the expenses! I heard that Mai Wan had brought his daughter to visit in the morning, and now he must have come to them again. It's time to play the role of the village chief, Pan Mingqiu agreed with Mai Xiaohuan's point of view, their family does have a lot, they can go home, and the rest of the things can be discussed by the other families.

The sisters pushed their father and mother and Pan Mingqiu out of the yard together, and they walked for a long time before the Mai Liu family came back to their senses, regretting the house and official position they almost got. Even more annoyed that everyone had to share the silver, they knew very well in their hearts that they could no longer go to Mai Wang because of this matter, and it would not be as simple as teaching two sentences to the village chief to know about it.

After going back, Mai Xiaohuan told the family that the prey they had caught in the past few days should be kept at home first, otherwise grandma and aunt would definitely sell it. Shan Cuihua was not stupid, she nodded very cooperatively, and Mai Xiaofang even asked to go up the mountain together, ready to protect her father, second brother and prey when she went home.

After saying what should be said, Mai Xiaohuan wanted to get into the hut where the experiment was done again, but was pulled by Shan Cuihua, this child was simply stunned, and he wanted to do her experiment in a little free time, and the gift brought by the young master had not been sorted out yet!

Oh, yes! was reminded by Shan Cuihua, and Mai Xiaohuan remembered that there was such a thing! Everything was piled up in the sisters' house, and the two of them examined a lot of things, from silk to tea, books to pen and ink. There is also a painted box at the bottom, open it and look at it, Shan Cuihua was scared stupid, full of a box of jewelry, Mai Xiaohuan pulled it a few times in it, and found a note.

"Mai Xiaobai, in view of the fact that you are ugly and not dressed up well, it is very likely that you will not be able to marry in the future, so I will send a box of jewelry as a dowry, I hope that in a few years, someone will marry you for the sake of these things."

Damn Zhou Yue, why did he say that he couldn't get married! Crumpled the paper in his hand and still couldn't relieve his anger, Mai Xiaohuan wanted to tear the note, thought for a while and then spread it out and sandwiched it in the book, looking at it in the future and thinking about Zhou Yue's face, he would have more motivation to struggle.

"Mother, I don't want to move these things, and I can't ask for them."

Although Shan Cuihua didn't know how the little girl and the person in the morning met, could it be an ordinary person if the officials of Pingliang County and Qingcheng County were dispatched? Those who are small in their own family and the Tang family feel inferior when they get along, let alone the nobles in the capital!

"Mother understands, we must not ask for things that we should not want, can these things be kept at home? As soon as my mother thought of having such valuable jewelry around her, she panicked and wanted to buy a few locks or raise a few dogs. Why don't you do anything from today, just stay in the house and read and watch them! ”

Mai Xiaohuan was amused by her mother, she can't use one day for two days now, how can she sit in the house and do nothing!

"I'll take care of these things, and make sure that no one else knows about them but us, and they won't be discovered."

"Is it still buried under the bed?"

"Haha, haha, mother, you're so interesting, there are so many places to hide things, every time you put it in the same place, sooner or later someone will be noticed. Leave this matter alone, I'll hide it. ”

Shan Cuihua helped Mai Xiaohuan tidy up the house, locked up all the valuables, and walked out with a lot of heart, and when she arrived at the door, she didn't forget to give her daughter an idea: "Some people will also hide valuable things in the pigsty and under the courtyard wall, why don't you try it too." ”

"Okay." Mai Xiaohuan responded with a smile, took advantage of the fact that there was no one around, took the box to the carriage and hid it in the dark compartment, and sent it to Qu Hao when he went to Tongbei County next time.

Just when Mai Xiaohuan did two more experiments, found some rules, and planned to make persistent efforts, Mai Yonghe came back.

"Xiao Huan! Come with me to the county seat. ”

made a noise in the yard to attract both Shan Cuihua and Mai Xiaofang, and finally even the busy Mai Xiaohuan went out, she was afraid that if it was a little later, the eldest brother would tear down the house.

"Big brother, do you have something to do with me?"

"Help me go to the yamen and talk about it, and let me go over and be a yasman."

Mai Xiaohuan really wanted to ask him if he was asking for his help! Or command yourself! Just based on the things he did in the past, there is also Chen Hanting, who may cause trouble at some point, and he will not ask for a county order.

It's not that Mai Xiaohuan looks down on his eldest brother, he can't be flexible, he has no ideas, and he can't say good things, just his kind of character can't eat it in officialdom at all.

"Big brother, it's not that I won't help you, I missed the opportunity that day, and it won't work if I find someone else afterwards."

"Then why didn't you agree to come down that day and tell me again."

"There were so many things that day that I forgot."

Mai Yonghe must ask his sister to go to Pingliang County again, to ask for the county order, and fight for herself.

"Our family is not suitable for doing things in the yamen, don't think about it." Mai Wang, who walked in from the outside, intercepted Mai Yonghe's words, he didn't want to be an official or village head, nor did he want his son to borrow this light. If Mai Yonghe was still the obedient and honest son he used to be, he might think that being a servant was a good way out, now? With the Chen family sisters and brothers behind him, no one knows what he will do next, and in order for everyone to continue to live a stable life, he must not be allowed to enter the yamen on an errand.

"You don't have to worry about food and clothing at home, do you know how hard Qiu Niang is!"

Mai Xiaofang sneered: "She worked hard for her own brother, what does it have to do with us, you don't want us to take over that Chen Hanting!" Why! ”

If it weren't for the fact that before she came back, Qiu Niang told herself that Mai Yonghe really wanted to go over and slap her sister twice. Just when the two of them were about to quarrel, Mai Xiaohuan took out a piece of silk from the house and handed it to the eldest brother: "This is for the sister-in-law, you take it back and give it to her." "As for whether they made it themselves or sold it, it doesn't matter, and I don't care.

This silk will sell for a lot of silver! It should be enough to get through the current difficulties, and those who have Qiu Niang should have their own. If there is another one, Qiu Niang can make a new dress: "What about mine!" ”

"Find someone to help cut it, and the eldest brother will wait for grandma to wear new clothes for her birthday! The sister-in-law's new clothes were also made, which were given to the sister-in-law to keep for the New Year. They actually cut the new silk, Mai Yonghe felt sorry, knowing that the matter of going to the yamen might not be possible, he picked up the silk and said hello to his father and mother and went back to the county seat.

Mai Xiaofang complained about why her sister gave Chen Qiuniang something, and swore that this silk would be bought after she got it back.

"Even if you know that your sister-in-law will sell it, she has already entered this door, and she really doesn't care! What face do they have to ask for next time they sell this horse, and then they won't give it to them? Will Big Brother give up? How can I go back and pay for it! ”

Ay! What a sin! Shan Cuihua has long regretted that she married her son to a daughter-in-law like Chen Qiuniang. Selfishness aside, except for her brother, she has never been kind to others with her heart and lungs. It's only her stupid son who thinks she's a good one, and she hurts like a baby with her heart.
