191. Life and death go hand in hand

When 'Hua' Jiu and Xi Zixiao rushed to the ancestral house, they only saw people kneeling in the house, the old lady on the 'bed' had already put on her longevity clothes, and there was actually an old lady lying on the inside.

"There is a maid 'girl' who said that the master woke up in the middle of the night, and suddenly it was normal, and let the maid 'girl' make a pot of hot tea, and after the dismissal, there was a vigil maid 'girl' who heard the voice of the master and the old lady talking, and when it was dawn, the two of them had already been dressed and lay down......" Xi Siye said eloquently, his expression was sad but not sad, he looked at the two people on the 'bed' who would be together even if they died, and the hands that had been 'handshake', as if he remembered the past, when he was still a child.

At that time, the father was not at home all the year round, and the brothers could be said to be raised by their mother, and when they were older, their father did not often go out, always accompanied by his mother, and wanted to make up for something.

This also indirectly made the heirs of the Xi family in the grandfather's house not prosperous, and there were only five sons and one 'daughter'.

Xi Zixiao lowered the edge of his robe, and knelt down like everyone else, and the same is true for 'Hua' Jiu half a step behind Xi Zixiao, the dead are the greatest, this is a truth since ancient times.

However, her eyes wandered around the pot of tea on the table, and she understood everything, and the grandfather knew that his fate was not long in coming, and he couldn't bear to leave the old lady alone after he went, so when he returned to the light, he fed the old lady to drink the poison that killed him, and the two died together.

Her heart was shaken, she didn't understand what kind of relationship between the two people had to go to do such a thing, speaking from her heart, if Xi Zixiao was like this, she would at least not be a mandarin duck with him now, and it was just a big deal to avenge him when she could take revenge.

She just thought so in her heart, and the hand on one side was quietly held by Xi Zixiao, and she turned her head to look at him, not knowing why.

Xi Zixiao opened her thin 'lips' and spit out a few words silently, her 'flower' nine eyes shrank, and she understood the shape of her mouth.

He was saying that if she didn't leave her, he would live and die.

The fingertips that were held trembled slightly, and 'Hua' Jiu suddenly 'twitched' his hand, lowered his eyes, and didn't look at him, but he couldn't stand the 'waves' of the rocky lake in his heart, and the 'waves' expanded more and more, and finally they all became a converging 'wave' light, which could no longer hide the throbbing.

"Xi Qi, what do you think the master is going to do about this?" At this time, the fourth master of Xi asked Xi Zixiao, now Xi Zixiao has a family seal in the house, and there are only a thousand taels of silver in the entire account. It's not enough to '' a funeral.

Xi Zixiao groaned for a while, "It's good for the fourth uncle to 'operate', and I will find a way to deal with the silver two." ”

With these words, Xi Siye's heart is settled, this time it is two people, even if it is face-saving, this white matter cannot be stingy, "That's good, I will inform the eldest brother that there is another room of Xifu to pass the house, and when it falls, I'm afraid you will have to come forward with Xiqi." ”

Xi Zixiao nodded, indicating that he understood, and then got up, "Then I'll go down first and raise money." ”

As soon as he left, he also took the opportunity to bring out the 'flower' Jiu together, these things are borne by the elders, and he and 'Hua' Jiu don't have to exert too much effort.

"Where are you going to raise money?" As soon as she returned to the Bodhisattva Temple, 'Hua' Jiu asked, she had already estimated in her heart just now, as soon as the master died, the 1,000 taels of silver that could be borrowed from the incense emergency could not be moved, although her dark incense building was profitable, but the time was still short, and she couldn't take out too much silver, and here, as soon as the 'spring' opened, the two incense shops were faced with a large number of spices, which was also a sum of silver.

Xi Zixiao went straight to the study with 'Hua' Jiu, turned over the accounts, and pointed to the indication 'Hua' Jiu, "The land in the house, sell it." ”

'Hua' Jiu was shocked, but he also knew that there was no way to do it, "The field property is sold, it's not enough, I can find Feng Mo to make some spices for emergency, but according to the convention, this is another half a month, and the house should go out to buy raw silk in advance, otherwise these silk shops this year will only be related to the 'door', buy raw silk, and the silver invested in advance is not less than my dark incense building." ”

"Therefore, whoever swallows the silver, he will spit it out." Xi Zixiao pinched the fingers of 'Hua' Jiu, pinched them one by one, and at the end, he stared at it for a while, and actually put it in his mouth and bit it lightly.

'Hua' Jiu 'twitched' his hand back, almond eyes stared at him with a sharp 'color', this person is becoming more and more brazen, the blue sky and the day are like this Meng 'Lang', the cold and unsentimental before, where is there still half a point, "Xiluan?" Indeed, the master didn't pursue it before, it was for the sake of the family, but now that the people are gone, how can there be any friendship, and he is not afraid of choking if he swallows so much silver. ”

"Madam, my heart is really black," a dark light flickered at the bottom of obsidian's eyes, "as black as a husband." ”

'Hua' Jiu was too lazy to talk to him, she wasn't a good person anyway, and he was not wrong when he said that.

As expected, on the second day, the first to go to the 'door' to cry was Uncle Xi Feng, who went out of the house to stand on his own.

The man's 'Hua' Jiu looked at it carefully, and the raw one was three or four points similar to Xi Feng, but the elegant atmosphere between his eyebrows was more obvious, the person was thin, and his skin was a little dark.

Xi Feng cried very miserably, his face was full of tears, Xi Siye was also infected with the sorrow from it, he stepped forward to Xi Feng and pulled him, "Big brother, you get up first, my father is very relieved." ”

Thinking about it, Xi Feng pushed him away, stood up suddenly, looked at 'Hua' Jiu with a fierce face, and pointed to ask Xi Siye, "Fourth, you tell me honestly, is it because they have bad intentions, my father went so soon, and I was fine when I left home!" ”

Xi Siye's face changed, "Big brother, what nonsense are you talking about!" ”

Uncle Xi snorted coldly, his eyes were very unkind, "Am I talking nonsense, you know in your heart, I will go and ask a gentleman to come to inspect tomorrow to see how my father went?" If it weren't for the evil spirits in this house, how could there be so many things? ”

As soon as I heard that Uncle Xi was going to open the coffin for an autopsy, the fourth master of Xi's face was cold, and even his eyes were full of strange and ruthless 'color', "Big brother, you left the house long ago and set up your own 'door' household, and now it is not your turn to point fingers at the affairs of this house, I read it in my brother's game, my father went to Haosheng to inform you, as soon as you enter the 'door', you will 'mess' up the matter, if you are so unreasonable, don't blame me for being a younger brother who turns his face and doesn't recognize people, please go out of the 'door'!" ”

Xi Siye's remarks made everyone stunned, and it took a long time for Uncle Xi to come back to his senses, with an unbelievable look on his face, you must know that he, the fourth brother, has never cared about the affairs of the house at all, has no ambition, and is content with the status quo, and now it has become so strange after only a few days.

"Fourth uncle, you can't say that, my father is my grandfather's eldest son, and now he is suddenly gone, he is also concerned about this, how can there be a reason to drive people out." Xi Luan took a step forward, raised his eyebrows, and said.

It's good that she didn't speak, as soon as she spoke, the people in the house remembered that she swept away the silver, otherwise the house would not be in such a predicament now, and immediately there were people of the same generation, grabbed the tea cup in hand and threw it at her, and scolded, "Get out, the elders speak, what are you 'plugging', grandfather does not pursue the matter of you taking away the silver, it does not mean that we will not pursue it, when grandfather is done, you don't spit out the silver, just wait for the court to see!" ”

The person who said this turned out to be Xi Huabo, all along, after the decline of the second room, he picked up his tail and became a man, but today's experience was beyond everyone's expectations.

'Hua' Jiu glanced at Xi Zixiao, but he didn't want him to look at her, their eyes met, and 'Hua' Jiu saw that the corners of his mouth were a little deeper, and he instantly knew that most of Xi Huabo's courage today was given by the one next to him, and he was also a black hand, and this hand was not taken personally, everyone liked to take advantage of the situation, so that the people next to him could not find the real murderer even if they were calculated.

This method is better than her.

Xi Luan was smashed by the tea cup, and the hem of her skirt was wet, but she was not weak at all, but looked directly at Xi Huabo, as if it was not her who was at fault, but someone else.

"Fourth uncle, we didn't come here today, except for seeing my grandfather for the last time, I wanted to 'figure out' the cause of my grandfather's death, and then I invited another room to stay with my grandfather's family after the first seven days, and the family business in this house was cut off, and the Xi family has its own rules, and my grandfather is gone, and there is no one in charge of the family, so this family should be divided." A loud voice sounded, but it was Xi Luan's brother Xi Lian who said this, he pulled Xi Luan, protected her behind him, raised his head, 'straightened' and 'chest', and said to Xi Siye the ultimate purpose of coming here today.

"You...... You ......" Xi Siye was speechless with anger, he only realized today that the big house was so wolf-like, first swept away all the silver in the house was not enough, and his father's bones were not cold, so he thought about coming to divide the family business, he was big-hearted and wanted mulberry garden and polycy, and did not leave a way back for other people in the house.

"It's okay," Xi Zixiao took a step forward and stood up, he showed the box containing the family seal in his hand, his face was not very expressionless, but everyone felt a chill frozen into the bone marrow from him, "I'm just about to look for it, Xi Jia over there, calculate where the silver went before." ”

When Uncle Xi saw the box, his eyes were hot, "Hmph, a, holding a family seal, who believes it!" As he said this, he stepped forward to rob him.

Xi Zixiao listened to the scolding, he didn't react, although the other Xi family members were angry, but Uncle Xi did say what they had been thinking all along, after all, until today, no one accepted Xi Zixiao's palm print.

"Whether you believe it or not, it's not your turn to speak in this mansion now, come on, blast me out, if you want to break in again, you will be dealt with as trespassing!" 'Hua' Jiu stepped in front of Xi Zixiao, his white face was cold, and there was even more churning anger in his eyes.

She actually didn't have much anger in her heart, but when she saw that Xi Zixiao was still being scolded, he didn't react at all, and she didn't think about it, so she stood up and casually pointed to a few nursing homes.

Those who don't dare not listen to the 'flower' nine, not to mention the cruelty of the 'flower' nine, when the grandfather 'handed' the seal, everyone knows that the first refers to the seven young ladies, and now the young lady has the most silver in her hand, naturally whoever has the silver in her hand can give them monthly money, who is the master.

Immediately, a nursing home stepped forward and politely invited Xi Feng's family out, Xi Feng didn't believe it at first, and his face was hideous and he was about to rush to the front of 'Hua' Jiu, but there was really a nursing home who '' the stick and was about to fall on him.

It was still Xilian who pulled him quickly, otherwise the stick would have been implemented.

Seeing that this matter could not be beneficial, Xi Feng glanced at 'Hua' Jiu resentfully, and Cai was very unwilling to leave.
