Xia Li hates to deal with it, so he has to tell the truth.

Li Honglian was still thinking that this girl was beaten yesterday and was able to get out of bed today to find it, it seems that it doesn't hurt much, is it really as the dark guard said that she knows martial arts.

I was thinking about it in my heart, and I frowned when I heard Xia Li mention the matter of the warehouse.

The concubine Xia Yue interrupted there: "The key? What a key"

Xia Li didn't notice this, and still replied:

"It's the key to my mother's treasury, and my mother said that I would manage it before she died, but I don't know why I'm here with my aunt?"

Xia Yu grabbed the words there: "Your mother's key asked your mother to go, come to my mother and ask what to do?" ”

Li Honglian let her two daughters ask questions, pretending not to hear or make a sound.

Xia Li said there: "If the key is not here with the eldest aunt, it may be lost, then I will have someone smash the door open, anyway, the warehouse has to be opened and sorted out."

After she finished speaking, she was about to leave, so she listened to Li Honglian say in the back; "Wait"

Xia Li was just talking, and he had just turned around and hadn't taken a step, so he turned around again and said, "Auntie still has something?" ”

Li Honglian's face sank there, "That's right, the key to your mother's treasury is with me, but it's your mother's meaning to let me here, your mother said to me before, you two children are young and ignorant, and you don't know how to manage money, if something happens to her, let me manage it for her, so I took over the treasury and the property in your mother's name."

Xia Xuan said secretly: "The ghost only believes your words, your mother was killed by you, and it is strange that you can still manage your property."

After thinking about it, she said, "How can I bother my aunt to do my mother's affairs?" Besides, my brother is older, so it's not good for my aunt to worry about it, so we should manage it ourselves, so as not to lose more things in the future."

Anyone who hears what she says will understand, and no one will be embarrassed to take someone's key and not return it! I don't know if Li Honglian really wants to pay it back or doesn't want to pay it back.

Li Honglian was still fiddling with the objects in her hand, and when she heard this, she raised her head and said:

"It's not that the eldest aunt has to take care of your mother's things, but your mother told me this way before her death, and I want to push it to you again for fear that she will blame me for having the knowledge under the spring, so the eldest aunt can't return it to you now, and when your brother marries and has a sister-in-law, I will give her the key."

Xia Li had to secretly sigh that Li Honglian was thick-skinned, she said this and even found an excuse not to give it, what mother confessed, her mother had already passed away, and she couldn't confront her if she wanted to, which was also the cleverness of this person to make excuses.

Xia Li thought about it again and said again: "Auntie, it's really too bad for you to worry about us as juniors, besides, I'm so old, I should also learn how to manage the treasury and how to run the shop, anyway, these things will be left to me and my brother in the future, and it will be inconvenient for us after others take care of it, so my aunt still gives me the key, lest people say that you will worry about us in the future, and if you don't say it well, you will think that you are coveting my mother's property!" ”

"Bold, who do you say covets the family property, you say that my mother doesn't tear your mouth if I don't tear your mouth" Xia Yu was anxious, got up and roared.

Xia Li also said uncompromisingly: "Isn't it? My aunt was reluctant to return my mother's key to the treasury, and I said that my brother and I could manage it and didn't like outsiders, but my aunt just didn't understand."

Xia Yu said to Li Honglian there: "Mother's family has said so, you give her the key, as if it is something good, it makes you worry about it constantly, you let her take it back, don't look for you if there is anything in the future, she can squander as much as she likes, it has nothing to do with us"

Xia Li didn't expect this second lady to have such a sense of justice, although she usually likes to bully people, she can still distinguish between right and wrong in front of the big ones.

Xia Yue looked at her own sister and shouted, "Yu'er, what are you talking about, this matter is handled by your mother"

"I can say whatever I like, you don't care" Xia Yu couldn't get used to Xia Yue's arrogant appearance, she usually pointed fingers at herself, and now she reprimanded her in front of Xia Li, which was really hateful.

Li Honglian looked at the stupidity of her second daughter, and she hated it so much that she didn't know how to say it.

It took a long time before he said: "Since Li'er is like this, you can let your father come and get it!" I'm afraid that if I gave it to you, you will lose it again, and I will have to explain it to your father after so many days, and I can't talk about it with you as a child."

Xia Li dared to guarantee that his father was coming, and if he wanted to say a few good words, not only could he not take back the key, but he might also give everything to others.

After thinking about it, he said, "No need, the eldest aunt will leave it to me!" My father was a bit busy and was rarely at home during the day, so I went back and talked to my father."

Li Honglian stared at Xia Li's eyes and smiled a few times: "It's not that the eldest aunt is unkind, but it's about property, let's let your father come and get it!" I can't speak clearly with you as a little child."

Xia Li saw that this person had a resolute attitude, and he didn't hand over the key no matter what he said, so he had to sigh that this person was shameless, and he didn't want to return other people's things, so he left angrily.

It seems that this matter has to start from her father, as long as her father says that she wants the key back, Li Honglian has nothing to refute, but she is afraid that if her father doesn't say so or do it, then everything will be in vain, and the most important thing is that she still owes others 20,000 taels of silver and hasn't paid it back!

When she returned to the backyard, she went to her brother, and told Li Honglian about her refusal to return the key, and also piggybacked, maybe the eldest aunt killed her mother because of these things.

Xia Ye didn't defend others like he did every time when he heard this, and it took a long time before he said: "Wait a minute, you can ask your father what you mean, as for my mother's affairs, I'll wait for me to check it later, but you can't tell you about this in the future?" ”

Xia Ye knew that this person's heart was shaking, and he didn't force him anymore, and said there: "You will know sooner or later who the Dafang family is, now is just the beginning, you just take your time."

Xia Ye didn't speak again, and heard Qing Shui report that the second master was back.

After hearing this, Xia Li hurriedly said, "Brother, let's go, let's talk about this."

"It's ......," Natsuba felt like a big man saying it wasn't good.

Xia Li didn't care about that, and led his brother by force.

The two saw their father give a salute first, and then Xia Li said, "Father, why did you come back so late?"

She saw Xia Zhi'an sitting on the chair tiredly, and she was embarrassed to get to the point.

"Oh! Is there something to discuss in the court these days, so you came back late? What, you're looking for me? ”

"It's something" Xia Li glanced at his brother, seeing that this person was silent, only to say it himself.

"What's the matter, are you in trouble again, or are you messing with someone again?"

It's as if she always likes to get into trouble, it's all those people who come to provoke her.

Xia Li said dissatisfiedly: "No, father, it's that I have something else I want to ask"

"What's the matter, tell me!"

Xia Zhi'an has been busy with the affairs of the DPRK and China these days, some people have proposed that there is a problem with the military supplies in the north, and the emperor wants to send someone to investigate, but he is afraid of affecting the military strength of the northwest, so his mind wanders between checking and not checking, and the ministers of the DPRK and China are also saying their own reasons, and checking and not checking each account for half, so during this time, everyone has been standing in two factions, he is neutral, check or not, last few days he heard that someone recommended him to go, he didn't want to take this hot potato, and was dealing with the emperor.

Xia Li didn't know about the affairs of the court, and now she just wanted to solve the problem of owing 20,000 taels of silver to others, and said there:

"Father, mother's death left behind the key to the treasury and some of the property have been taken over by the aunt, I think the aunt is very busy on weekdays, and my brother and I are older, we also need to experience it, so I want to take over the key to the treasury and the industry to manage it myself"

Xia Zhi'an frowned when he heard this, "What, isn't your silver enough for you to spend?" ”

Xia Lina can say that she needs money to buy a human skin mask, and for everyone's young lady, her monthly routine is enough.

I had to say: "Enough is enough, but if I want to buy something else, it is not enough."

"If it's not enough, come to me to get it, and let your aunt manage your mother's treasury and property!"

Xia Li didn't understand: "Why father? My brother and I are both older, we can manage it ourselves, and besides, when we all figure it out, it will be more convenient to have a sister-in-law to hand over to her in the future."

Xia Zhi'an didn't think so far, and said: "I'll talk about it later."

"But father, those things from my mother were left to me and my brother, and my aunt also has children, aren't you afraid that those things will be left in our hands in the future?"

Xia Li felt that he had to be clear when he spoke to this father.

Xia Zhi'an sighed when he heard it and said, "If there is no left, there will be no left!" ”

"What?" Xia Li was a little angry, "Why should father, mother's things be given to others, we as children don't say anything, we have to watch others squander, those are all mother's hard work, how can we ......bear it?"

When Xia Zhi'an heard this, his already tired body fell into decay again, shrunk back into the chair, and interrupted:

"Shut up, your mother will agree to what I do if you know it"

"Father, I don't understand, please make it clear, otherwise tomorrow you don't go to the aunt to ask for the key, I will still go and get it back"

Xia Zhi'an was anxious when he heard this, and shouted: "Don't go, if you go again, I will order someone to discount your leg."

Xia Ye saw that his father was angry, and pulled his sister's arm, "Okay, don't say it, don't want it"

Xia Li also lost his temper, "If my father doesn't make it clear, even if I discount my leg, I will still go, I can't watch what my mother has managed to accumulate be squandered by others."

Xia Zhi'an now knows the temper of his daughter-in-law, since her mother died, her daughter has changed, he can stick to his own principles to others, saying one and saying two two, but he can't for his children at that time, he is already sorry for them.

In the end, his anger was extinguished, and he said, "Don't ask again, go back to sleep, and if you don't have enough money, come to your father to get it!" “

Xia Li's father softened in the face of such a compromise, but she also had something she insisted on, and said: "Father tell the truth!" Why do you do this? Why do we have to accommodate the big house again and again? Are we born inferior and live by looking at people's faces? If that's the case, I'd rather not have the identity of this rich lady."

"Sister ......"

Xia Ye was afraid that his father would come and really expelled Xia Li from the house, so he shouted beside him.

Xia Zhi'an saw that her daughter had been asking the reason for the matter, and it took a long time before she said:

"Money is something outside the body, you can earn it again after you spend it, but there is only one human life, and in this world, nothing is as important as the lives of your brothers and sisters."

After saying these words, Xia Zhi'an sat on the chair decadently as if he had been drained of his strength, and then waved his hand to the two, "Let's all go back!" ”
