Xie Wan looked at his sweaty brother and couldn't help sighing. Xie Lang is good at everything, but he is not familiar with human feelings. If he hadn't had this weakness, he wouldn't have fallen to that point in his previous life.

I heard Xie Qigong say angrily: "What strange place?!" This is your home! Did that rebel teach you that you don't even want your ancestors?! ”

Wang warmly agreed: "Your grandfather also feels sorry for your parents. ”

Before Xie Lang could speak, Xie Wan secretly tugged at his sleeve. "The halva given by Mrs. is delicious," she looked at Xie Lang pleadingly, and then looked at Wang with wide eyes.

Wang smiled at her.

Xie Lang has always loved his sister and has never disobeyed her in everything. It's just that she is young and ignorant now, how can she know that she is relieving herself? After hesitating, he lowered his tone three more times, and said to Xie Qigong: "Okay, then let's wait for my uncle to come tomorrow." ”

Xie Qigong brushed his sleeves and walked out of the flower hall.

Xie Lang hurriedly led Xie Wan back to the house, let Baomo and Yinzuo guard the door, solemnly hugged his sister to the kang, and said, "We can't stay, do you know how ruthless this Wang family is?" ”

Xie Wan sat on the kang, hanging his two calves, and looked at him with a wink: "Why is she ruthless?" ”

Xie Lang's handsome face was already swollen red, and he said as calmly as possible: "Do you think about what our father's identity is? is the most legitimate eldest son of the Xie family, but he was forced by the Wang family to have a home and can't return! Back then, his father lived far away in the house left by his grandmother, and he was forced by the Wang family! How can you get close to this poisonous woman? ”

Of course Xie Wan knows Wang's methods.

Xie Lang is not good at saying right and wrong, so he didn't say why. But Xie Wan learned from his aunt and his mother's dowry maid Wu's mother that after the death of Mrs. Xie Jiatai, Xie Hong, who was good at ingratiating, won Xie Qigong's favor, and because the Wang family gave birth to the smart and handsome Xie Rong, Xie Teng was gradually ignored by Xie Qigong because he was not good at pampering and selling well.

The Wang family not only coaxed Xie Qigong to hand over the Yang family's dowry industry to her, but also told Xie Teng in front of Xie Qigong in every possible way, and he couldn't persuade Xie Qigong to remove this sister-in-law from the family tree.

Not to mention anything else, let's just say that Xie Teng's biological mother Yang had brought a lot of dowry, and it was also controlled by the Wang family on the grounds that Xie Teng was young. If it weren't for Xie Teng's aunt, Mrs. Jin, who came over to get the dowry back, those properties would not have become Wang's private property, but would have become the public property of the mansion.

So after his father got the property back, he resolutely moved out of the house and went to live in the house left to him by the Yang family in Huangshi Town.

With his soft temperament, it is not difficult to imagine how much hardship he endured in the years of living under the Wang family.

However, it was precisely because of all this that the Wang family had done, and the Xie family's desperation for them, that she had to give it a go.

"Brother," Xie Wan looked at Xie Lang's clear eyes and said, "Think about it, my uncle has helped us enough, and their family relies on my uncle's little money in the state magistrate, and my cousin and cousin are already barely able to afford to add two of us?" If we follow our uncle to the Qi family, you will have to be handled by your uncle and aunt in the future, isn't this a burden for them? ”

In fact, she knew that because of the disparity in family status, her uncle did not agree with her mother marrying her father, but her mother and father had a deep affection and insisted on marrying each other. My aunt didn't complain about it at all.

In her previous life, after she went to the Qi family, because the property of the second room was taken away by the Xie family, their brother and sister were penniless, and the Qi family suddenly became poor. She witnessed her aunt privately making needlework to supplement the family, and secretly took out her dowry to buy pen and ink for her brother and new clothes for her.

In her previous life, she didn't know, so she had to suffer this kindness, but in this life, can she still use their money so comfortably? What's more, after they passed, not only did they drag them down, but Xie Lang didn't get a good future.

If you don't enter the tiger's den, you can get the tiger.

Although you can enjoy enough warmth and family affection to live in the Qi family, it is not a mutually beneficial choice. Why do uncles and aunts have to raise their children and grandchildren for the Xie family and pay so much for them? Why did she give her parents' inheritance to the Xie family? Not only did the Xie family not pay to support the orphans, but they also deprived them of their property and used it to spend money to pave the way for their stepfamily's son! Let them take advantage of all the advantages in the world! In the previous life, they succeeded, but in this life they may not.

In this life, the Xie family doesn't want to move a penny for their second room!

Xie Lang looked at the quiet Xie Wan in a daze, but his eyes were very surprised.

He knew that his sister was right, but he was shocked that such words could come out of the mouth of an eight-year-old child. It's true that Wan Wan has been very smart since she was a child, but it stands to reason that she hasn't had the time to think about this yet! Even he didn't expect this layer - could it be that the family change made her more sensible?

Her gaze shone as brightly as the morning star, revealing agelessness and wisdom that did not match her age. He thought of her silence these days, and his heart ached slightly. What a happy family they would have had! Unexpectedly, after the Double Ninth Festival, his parents died, and even his most beloved sister was forced to mature by the cruel reality.

Looking at his sister's face as white as jade, he turned his face away even more reluctantly.

Xie Wan also knew that it was easy to make people suspicious when he said this.

But now, since it's time to choose, for the sake of their future, how can she show some persuasion in front of her kind and gentle brother. The elder brother is indecisive and simple-minded, there are many precocious children in this world, and with his brother's temperament, he was surprised by this, and he couldn't be surprised for long.

"Don't be surprised, you say first, am I right?" She said seriously.

Xie Lang turned his head and looked at her again for a while, then his brows moved and he nodded.

"You're right, my uncle and aunt are so good to us, we shouldn't burden them anymore - but Wanwan, if we don't go to Qi's house, we can go back to our own house, or we can go unrestrained! Wanwan, I can take care of you! He patted his chest, which was not thick.

Xie Wan nodded, "You are my own brother, my dearest relative at the moment, of course I believe that you will take care of me." However, have you ever thought that you are about to take the exam, and when you are admitted, you will have to study hard, and then you will have to take the exam to become a big official, and at that time, will you still be able to follow me every day to take care of me? ”

"Then, then I won't study!" Xie Lang blurted out. He clenched his fists in a tangled manner.

Xie Wan's eyes widened: "If my brother doesn't study, how will he break away from the second room in the future?" How do we keep our family property? How can he raise his eyebrows in front of the Wang family for his father? Isn't that just giving them bullying for nothing? If we stay in Xie Mansion, at least, we will not have to worry about food and clothing, and my safety will not be worried, so that you can study with peace of mind and earn a future for yourself. Moreover, we can also save money for chewing and raising people! ”

Playing the autumn breeze of the Xie family, Xie Wan was not embarrassed at all.

Xie Lang's face turned pale, and he stepped back and sat on the ground.

"Do you want me to live my life by relying on the Wang family's snort?" He clutched his head and whimpered.

"How can it be a lifetime?" Xie Wan sighed: "We are just living in the mansion for the time being, and when you pass the exam, won't you be able to come out in a grand manner?" At that time, of course, they will look up to our snort! Brother, let's think long-term. ”

Xie Lang is very smart and studious, and he is very good at drawing inferences in learning, in his previous life, before he went down to participate in the examination, his uncle happened to die of illness, he went back and forth to Jingshi and Qinghe to help take care of the aftermath, in that case he was a fellow jinshi, if there was no interference from these things, he would at least be named in Hanlin on the gold list, right?

Xie Lang raised his head, was silent for a long time, and his eyebrows gradually widened, "You mean, do you want me to learn to practice lying on the salary and taste the courage, endure humiliation and bear the burden for a few years, and then get out of it when I get famous?" ”

"yes!" Xie Wan nodded, "By then, you will be an official, what are we going to do, where are we going, can he still stop us?" ”

Xie Lang's eyes regained their brightness, and he said after a moment: "You're right!" We can promise to stay, but we have to make an agreement with him for three chapters, and we must promise to get out after we get it! ”

Xie Wan slowly raised his lips.

Wang's fancy is not him, but the marriage of the Yang family and the Qi family in the second room.

It is precisely because Xie Qigong is selfish and affectionate, so he is not stupid enough to use his family business to add Xie Hong, although in his previous life, he also took part of the family property in the second room to give Xie Rong some money, but Xie Rong is his own son, which is different from Xie Hong.

It is difficult for Wang to tell him clearly, so he can only persuade him with various high-sounding reasons. Although Xie Qigong didn't like Xie Teng, after Xie Wan was "beaten" by Tuesday's family, Xie Qigong naturally couldn't harden his heart for a while to speak harshly about them.

Once the Wang family gets this property, I'm afraid that their brothers and sisters won't be willing to continue to live in the mansion! And what guarantees are you talking about?

However, when it came to the third chapter of the covenant, she smiled again, "My brother is right. We're serious heirs, and since they want to keep us so much, of course we'll have to put on a gesture. In addition to this as a condition, it is natural to add two other items. ”

As she spoke, she looked out the window and whispered in Xie Lang's ear.

Xie Lang's expression gradually became solemn.

After Xie Wan finished explaining, he sat up straight and said, "If they don't agree, let's ask our uncle to take us to Qi's house." Uncle and Aunt Ming'er come here, you can explain these words to them and ask them to come forward to negotiate. You are all thirteen years old, and in front of your uncle, the Xie family must respect you. ”
