In the blink of an eye, the days are close to mangzhong.

The warm orange light of the setting sun hit the whole sky, the markets on the street were closed one after another, the shops on both sides were also cut off, and the man pulled the empty cart back to the alley, looking at the sister-in-law sitting at the door of the house.

"I'm back."

The sister-in-law smiled and wiped her hands, and told her son to come over and not go to the street to play.

"Mother!"

Mi'er jumped and ran back, pointing to the outside of the alley, the little child's eyes were full of excitement, he had never seen such a battle, let alone seven days in a row.

"It's still there! It's still there! Mi'er smiled, "Will you be here tomorrow?!" ”

When the sister-in-law heard this, she shook her head embarrassedly.

The man parked the cart in front of his house, came out with a bucket to wash it as usual, and said, "It's still moving." ”

"Still moving?"

The mother-in-law took the futon out to hang on the shelf, took the bamboo strip and whipped the musty smell on it, and said with a smile: "It's been moving for seven days in a row, and the mansion hasn't been emptied, and I don't know how many treasures there are in the long house. ”

The man scrubbed tiredly and sighed: "Oh, it's really hard to die, starving to death." "Brush it twice, it seems that you have no strength, and you are a little unwilling to be decadent," You said that we are tired and tired this day, and we still have to look at the face of Shen Zhutou, and we can't make a few children." ”

When the sister-in-law and mother-in-law heard this, they both smiled tacitly.

The man continued to sigh: "Look at those in the Guogong Mansion again. Hold your waist and stand up, "I don't need them to do anything, I was born with a golden spoon in my mouth, that is to eat and wear without worry, I know how to have fun every day, and in the end I will still be rich and noble from generation to generation, and enjoy endless delicacies from the mountains and seas." ”

"What are you complaining about?"

The mother-in-law held the bamboo stick in her hand and said lightly: "The lady is virtuous, the child is sensible, although she doesn't earn much, but it is enough to spend, you always watch what others do, and you can live your own life." ”

"Yes."

The eldest sister-in-law went the laundry water down the drain and said with a smile: "If you say this again, if someone hears it and spreads it, be careful that the Cheng family has a narrow heart, and it will not be polite to you." ”

The man cut his voice: "I'm barefoot and not afraid of wearing shoes, what can they do with me." ”

"Cheng Sanye has the largest Yuxing fish store in Xiping, with his current power, he can monopolize all the docks in Xiping and cover the entire Suishui, and you are a fish seller for a living."

The mother-in-law hit the nail on the head and said: "If you have two mouths, you don't want to live." Stretched out his hand and straightened the folds on the futon, "People don't have a monopoly on the market, and they still allow you retail investors to do business in the bazaar, so you can steal the fun, and complain, you complain." ”

Hearing the words of the mother-in-law, the man's heart gradually relieved, looked at the warm sunset, and said: "It is also said that this is so good, and suddenly the family will be separated." ”

"I heard that the third room couldn't hold on, so I simply had a showdown with the long room."

The eldest sister-in-law raised the wooden basin and put the washed clothes on the pole to dry: "Cheng Sanye does this...... He is still grabbing it now, if he really waits for the Naqi girl and Young Master Zongyu to get married, he won't be able to catch a single hair. ”

"Okay, don't talk about those who don't."

The mother-in-law took the quilt back into her hand: "Did you leave the grass carp you said?" ”

The man looked up and took it out of the house: "It's kept, it's still the biggest one." ”

"Exactly."

The mother-in-law looked at the man, then at the sister-in-law, and said with a smile: "I'll stew fish, come and eat it." ”

"Okay."

The eldest sister-in-law smiled and nodded: "I'll go over after drying the clothes." He beckoned to his son and said, "Mi'er, you go to your mother-in-law's house to play first, and when your father comes back, we'll have dinner." ”

The younger child smiled and went into the house with her mother-in-law.

The man also nodded: "I'll wash my face and go over." ”

…

…

"Slow down, handle everything with care."

At the door of the Guogong Mansion, Aunt Meng stood there with great fanfare, directing the little maid to move things, she was confident and loud, and the people on the street couldn't help but pay attention.

"Let me tell you, there are only the last thirty boxes left, which are filled with the most cherished antiques, calligraphy and paintings during the uncle's lifetime, which are worth thousands of gold each, and if they are broken, they can't afford to take your heads!"

"Auntie, take a break."

Uncle Sheng came over and said, "The house is almost moved, the old slave is preparing the car, you and Miss Qi and Young Master Zongyu should go back to the villa, presumably Mrs. and Young Master Qiubai have already started preparing meals in the village." ”

Aunt Meng looked at it and nodded: "Okay, you are old, I don't worry." Turning back to Xiao Cui, he said, "What about the desert and Zongyu?" Where did these two children go? ”

"Here!"

Cheng Qi's voice came from not far away.

Aunt Meng turned around and looked at the two of them coming one after the other, she hurriedly took out a handkerchief, pulled Cheng Qi to wipe the sweat on her head, and said, "Where did you run away again, this sweat in your head." ”

"This and this."

Cheng Qi's face was full of excitement, he raised his hand, and there was something wrapped in a handkerchief in his palm: "It's really not easy, Cheng Yan and I spent a long time trying to catch it." ”

Aunt Meng stretched out her finger and pressed it, it was soft, so she thought it was a bird, but when she opened the veil, she saw that it was a half-sized frog, which scared her mother and beat her far away.

"Hey! My new favorite! ”

Cheng Qi watched the frog draw an arc in mid-air, and then was steadily caught by Cheng Yan, so he breathed a sigh of relief, carefully took it in his hand, and turned around and said, "Auntie, what are you doing, I want to keep it." ”

Aunt Meng hated this kind of thing the most, goosebumps straightened all over her body, and she scolded: "Dead girl, what's not good to play, you play with this toad, with this idle time, it's better to play with birds." ”

"Playing with birds?"

Cheng Yan smiled mysteriously.

Cheng Qi glanced at her, and then corrected Aunt Meng: "Auntie, this is not a toad, this is a serious frog." "Look at the little guy who doesn't let go of his other hand and doesn't run around," I decided, I wanted to name it...... Old Five! ”

"Why?"

Cheng Yan crossed his arms and asked, "Could it be that it is because there are four long houses, and it is new, so it is called the fifth child?" ”

"Yes."

Cheng Qi nodded with a serious face.

Cheng Yan's face was pale.

It's time to talk to frogs about seniority and call them brothers.

"Alright."

Aunt Meng was born in the countryside, looking at Cheng Qi playing with the frog, she remembered the scene when she and her father and mother worked in the paddy fields when she was a child, so she said: "If you want to stay, keep it, it's almost moved here, Mrs. They are still waiting for us to go back at the villa, and the rest will be handed over to Dong Sheng, let's get up too." ”

Cheng Qi bowed his head, turned his head to Cheng Yan and said, "Then let's go and say hello to grandmother." ”

Cheng Yan responded.

The two of them were just about to leave, when they saw Tan Bai coming over and said, "Miss Qi, Young Master Zongyu." ”

He is now the housekeeper of the third room instead of Lu Er, and now that Cheng Qi and the others have moved away, he is the big housekeeper of the entire Guogong Mansion, and he is even longer than Liu Hua in the past.

Facing the people in the enemy camp, Cheng Qi said cautiously: "Brother Mingyu? What's up? ”

Tan Bai said lightly: "The third master invited the two of you to go to Changyin Pavilion, saying that there is something to discuss." ”

"Something?"

Cheng Yan frowned and said, "What did you say?" ”

Tan Bai shook his head.

"Whatever." Aunt Meng said coldly, "Uncle's property has been distributed to them in Sanzhuang, don't be content, what kind of moth do you want to make, don't go either." ”

"Auntie, this is embarrassing me."

Tan Bai said with a good face.

Cheng Qi thought for a while and said calmly: "Auntie, you wait here, Cheng Yan and I will come when we go." ”

"Okay then."

Aunt Meng instructed her: "You two be vigilant, if that Cheng Yunduo dares to embarrass you, call me over immediately, see that I don't make a big fuss in the Heavenly Palace, and scratch the face of the flowers." ”

Cheng Qi chuckled.

…

…

"Tents in the mines?"

In the Changyin Pavilion, Cheng Qi's puzzled voice sounded: "Third Uncle is talking about, the sub-mother mine in Dayi Mountain?" ”

Cheng Yunduo nodded.

Cheng Yan looked at him, his voice was cold in autumn and winter, and he leaned his shoulders in the direction of Cheng Qi: "Didn't the third uncle and Jiang Xiaowangye contract this Dayi Mountain's mother mine, and our Changfang has never interfered, so we naturally can't share this account, what?" Does the third uncle want to give us three points of profit for nothing? ”

"It's not a free gift."

Cheng Yunduo took the teacup and said lightly: "At the beginning, this mother and son mine was originally contracted by the Nanyang County Lord and your father, but now the Nanyang County Lord has completely let go and handed it over to his younger brother Jiang Xiaowangye to take care of, and my side was also taken over by your father after his death, so this mine was originally a long house." ”

Ji interjected on the side and said: "Yes, yes, this mine is originally yours, and they are all separated, so it stands to reason that we have to return the long house to you, otherwise, I and your third uncle can't be justified in conscience." ”

Conscience.

Cheng Qi was expressionless, but sneered in his heart.

has always been divided into two words, both of which are Ji's favorite words, what qualifications does this person have to talk about conscience.

But then again, why did Cheng Yunduo divide the profits of the mine into three points for no reason, you must know that even if it is only three points, the amount is terrifyingly huge.

She couldn't understand the purpose behind Cheng Yunduo for a while, so she didn't accept it happily, but said: "Third uncle, even if this mine was originally contracted by my father, but now there is no evidence, and there is no evidence, who can tell the relationship clearly, for so many years, the mother and son mine has always been taken care of by you, without any mistakes, and a few hairy children in our long house will not interfere first." ”

Cheng Yun's eyes were slightly deep: "Desert, you are just ignorant." ”

Ji Shi also couldn't wait to say: "Yes, aren't you chilling the hearts of me and your third uncle." ”

"Third aunt."

Cheng Qi got up and said coldly: "Although it is a separate family, but in the final analysis, we are all surnamed Cheng, even if it is to the edge of the sky, they are all a family, you have now divided the family business, and now you want to break this gold mine, what does it mean, is it difficult, it is necessary to break it cleanly, and old age and death do not get along?" ”

Ji Shi was stunned: "We didn't mean that, don't misunderstand the desert." ”

"Of course I can't get me wrong."

Cheng Qi said: "The kindness of the third uncle and the third aunt, we understand it, but this gold mine account sharing is not a trivial matter, wait for me to go back to the village, discuss it with my mother, uncle and others, and then reply." ”

After that, Tong Cheng Yan left.

When he went out of the courtyard, Cheng Yan glanced at her and said coldly: "The weasel greets the chickens." ”

Cheng Qi didn't respond, but said, "Let's go back first." ”
