Wang Qiao didn't look at Zhao, and said lightly: "A person like me is deeply involved in this case, and it will be difficult to make a living in the capital in the future, and the eldest uncle can't go against the situation in the entire capital and recruit me back to Guangsha Construction." My uncle suggested that I go back to Qinghe Village, and I wanted to agree. ”

Zhao said categorically: "Since they are all going back to the countryside, it is better to turn the state." We have a few thousand taels of silver in our hands, and if we buy some property in the Hezhou territory, we can become a small rich man who makes slaves and maids. Why bother to come out and serve others? ”

Whether it is a round state, their mother and son can be regarded as returning to their hometown. In his hometown in Hezhou, there is a family business of several thousand taels of silver, and he lives the life of a rich man.

Moreover, Wang Qiao, did he discuss it with his mother? I thought about what Qinghe Village I wanted to promise to go back to.

"It's okay, then listen to my mother." Wang Qiao lowered his eyes, what Yuanfan said was indeed right, his mother really had this idea. Live the life of a rich man? Put aside the things he likes, give up his life, and be a rich man who eats and waits for death?

"Mother, I haven't told you yet, I saw my father-in-law in Dali Temple a few days ago, and I told him about Round State. My father-in-law said that he was willing to marry Baguio to me because I followed my uncle and Ye Zi to do things, and I would definitely be able to find a good future in the future. If it was a round state, he couldn't let Baguio go back with me. Let me work hard in Hezhou to build a future, and then come to Baguio. ”

For the sake of him and Baguio, this pot can only be carried by his father-in-law. And this is not what he wanted to come up with to pit his father-in-law, it is Yuanfan's proposal, anyway, his mother has no chance to question his father-in-law.

Zhao was excited when he heard it. Round Zhou, don't worry about Ye Xinyan's shrewd face, and you don't have to look at her noble-born daughter-in-law every day, she can be her old feudal lord dignifiedly, and put on the pomp and nobility of her, the head of the rich family.

How uplifting and cozy was that? I didn't expect that there would be such benefits in a lawsuit.

"What are you talking about? In vain, he is still a court official, and if he has read the books of sages, he doesn't even understand the old saying that marrying a chicken and marrying a dog is a dog. If the father-in-law doesn't want his daughter to return to his hometown with us, then he will leave, right? Anyway, women like Ye Xinyan and Zhou Biyao who don't follow the rules don't take harmony seriously. ”

"My father-in-law also said that if I can't bear the loneliness after returning to my hometown and want to take a concubine or marry another person, he will also agree," Wang Qiao saw that there was a faint joy on Zhao's face, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and continued: "But Yu Wangfu said that after he left, he had to return the dowry in its original form according to the Baguio dowry list." ”

"What? Return? Restore the sealed ......" Zhao shouted loudly, and the old arms and legs almost jumped up.

Where did she leave that old guy unsealed?

After Zhou Biyao got married, this family was rearranged from the inside out, even the corners and corners. From the furniture to the stitches and threads, they have all been replaced with good and valuable ones. Even the clothes of their family from the inside out are all made of materials from Zhou Baguio's marriage.

Wang Qiao did not respond to Zhao's words, "I have a rough estimate, the silver we have on hand should be enough for us to eat and furnishings for more than half a year." The rest is enough for our return trip and the simple expenses of the family for a short time. ”

"The silver on hand?" Zhao's pain was like being plucked, "She took the initiative to take out those things, I never asked her for them, and I stopped her." But she insisted on replacing them all, that is, going to court, I will not bear this debt, and I can confront her in court. ”

Wang Qiao said softly: "Mother, don't you understand? We don't have anything to rely on now, but my father-in-law is a member of the fourth rank of the imperial court. In any case, Baguio's dowry and dowry silver are used in our family, and the yamen has a custom that the daughter-in-law should leave with all the dowry.

As for whether it is begged for or not, it doesn't matter, and no one will listen. If you don't return, then you can only do it according to the debt, the son is in prison and exiled, and we will be fined the family property to the Zhou family.

The result is the same, our family's property has to be returned to others, but it is just a loss for our family. Back then, the eldest uncle and father were just calculated by a squire in cloth clothes, and they all ended up with no bones. ”

And now, his family is facing the four-grade officials in the capital, and they are still in charge. But my mother has offended and despised all the powers she can offend......

Hehe, although Wang Qiao doesn't want to admit it, this is indeed a good opportunity for his mother to restrain her temper.

Zhao was extremely angry, "You bastard, you are all in trouble, the daughter of a good greedy official eunuch, you don't look at what your identity is!" ”

She raised her hand and wanted to slap Wang Qiao again, but she didn't fall, she only waved the two tea cups at hand to the ground in a deflated manner, making a crisp sound of porcelain breaking, and Wang Qiao's reminder: "Mother, this set of porcelain is very expensive, as long as one is broken, the whole set is considered a remnant, and it is not worth silver." ”

Zhao's hands trembled uncontrollably. It turned out that although Ah Qiao had craftsmanship, she did come to the capital, and lived a life that was the envy of the surrounding neighbors. But at the end of the day, it's still nothing, it's still an ant-like existence.

Wang Qiao smiled self-deprecatingly, and then said: "Actually, when Uncle Zhang took me out, I just thought that I could earn more wages and my family would be more comfortable. My mother thought so at the time, right? We, the common people, even if we have a good craft, will live by hard work all our lives.

If it weren't for Ye Zi, who was born in the Anguo Mansion, not only me, but also the eldest uncle who had no ability, and could only do a job and eat a bite of food with his hands. The eldest uncle and Uncle Zhang's family, and even Baguio and his father-in-law, were grateful for the goodness of the leaves, and the opportunities and kindness that the leaves brought them.

It's just me, only our family, not only don't I know what to do, but I almost bit my uncle back. The eldest uncle came to the capital and left many craftsmen and masters to Uncle Zhang, fortunately Ye Zi has the ability and family background, otherwise, I left Guangsha Construction last year, and the eldest uncle would have to close the business, and the uncle's family would have to return to their hometowns.

Ye Zi's status is not high enough to rectify us, and it is not impossible to make our family lose their way to live. It's just that she's open-minded and doesn't want to do these things. ”

He had wanted to say these words for a long time, Ye Zi and Baguio were right, and he couldn't let his mother continue to be wrong because of his stupidity.

"Mother, rest early, Round Zhou, or go to Qinghe Village, my son listens to my mother, whatever."

Wang Qiao summoned Xiuqin and Xiaocui in to serve Zhao, and he got up and went back to the room.

…………

When Qi Younian came back, Ye Xinyan immediately felt that the pressure had dropped sharply, the old man's deployment of manpower was a must, with Qi Younian here, she would have the opportunity to paddle easily and do something else.

The project of Xixiuyuan was originally completed at the end, and many chores needed to be improved little by little, which was very disturbing for Ye Xinyan.

With Qi Younian in charge of the overall situation, and all the people he brought back were sent in, the brand-new garden was completed in less than half a month. Even the transplanted trees and bonsai flowers are in place, showing great vitality.
