Chapter 131: Grandfather is weird
Hearing this, Mrs. Xia Gonghou looked at Xia Lianxiang's mother and daughter with a chuckle and said:
"The fourth aunt and grandmother can't be insatiable, the fourth aunt and grandmother have not waited by the old lady's side for a day in the past few decades, the old lady left in my heart and the fourth aunt and grandmother came back, and Mrs. Ben didn't look at the fourth aunt and grandmother sadly, but the fourth aunt and grandmother have been happy and tight these days, and the five thousand taels of silver that the Hou Ye gave to the fourth aunt and grandmother are afraid that there is not much left."
Xia Lianxiang and Lu Qian'er's faces turned red, especially Lu Qian'er's blushing seemed to be dripping blood, Xia Lianxiang said angrily:
"Sister-in-law, what you say is heartbroken, how can sister-in-law freely speculate about the fourth sister's heart for her mother, my mother is the one who gave birth to me and raised me, my filial piety and respect for my mother are not as obvious as she shows in my heart, and the five thousand taels of silver that the eldest brother gave to the fourth sister is the eldest brother's pity for the fourth sister will give to the fourth sister, if the sister-in-law says this, it seems that the fourth sister is greedy for the eldest brother's silver, the fourth sister is not the insatiable person, but the fourth sister and several brothers are the mother's children, The money left by the mother was inevitably too unevenly divided, and the fourth sister was not convinced. ”
Xia Yu didn't know what to say, when she met such a superb relative, only her grandmother could deal with it, as Xia Yu expected, but seeing that Mrs. Xia Gonghou suddenly placed the brocade box on the purple trembling wooden table, she said with a gloomy face:
"I didn't expect the fourth sister to be such a wolf-hearted person, the Hou Ye treated the fourth sister well, it was pity for the fourth sister, I didn't think that the fourth sister would take the pity of the queen father as it should be, how did I not see the second brother and the fifth brother give the fourth sister silver flowers, the fourth sister lives in the Xia Gonghou Mansion in her heart, and the food and accommodation are all in the Xia Gonghou Mansion, so you have to pick and choose, if this is the case, we are willing to give the fourth sister an extra 10,000 taels of silver, but please ask the fourth sister mother and daughter to move out of the Xia Gonghou Mansion."
When Lu Qian'er heard this, she immediately stepped forward and pulled Xia Lianxiang's sleeve, for fear that Xia Lianxiang would agree to Mrs. Xia, so she immediately spoke:
"Uncle Mo is angry, Uncle Mo takes his mother's words to heart, Mother is excited to contradict Uncle Mom, 20,000 taels of silver is enough for our mother and daughter to spend, you say yes, Mother."
Xia Lianxiang wilted as early as when Mrs. Xia Gonghou proposed to let their mother and daughter move out of Xia's mansion, and immediately responded:
"Sister-in-law, it's all the fourth sister's impulse, sister-in-law don't take the fourth sister's nonsense to heart, the sister-in-law is very well distributed."
Mrs. Xia Gonghou glanced at Xia Lianxiang's mother and daughter, and said:
"Since everyone has no opinion, let the money be distributed like this."
As he spoke, he opened the brocade box and took out the 50,000 taels of silver tickets in it, which contained fifteen silver tickets with a denomination of 10,000 taels.
The second master and the fifth master stepped forward excitedly, and the Marquis of Xia took out 80,000 taels from the brocade box and gave 40,000 taels each to the second master and the fifth master.
When the second master returned to the position with the silver ticket, he handed the silver ticket to Cai's, Miao's expression was excited, who knew that when the fifth master returned to the position, he took out a silver ticket and handed it to Miao, and put the three silver tickets into his arms, looking beautiful.
Miao was stunned and said: "The lord doesn't know why the lord only gave the concubine a silver ticket, and the lord's 40,000 taels of silver tickets are in the public." ”
The fifth master immediately said impatiently: "What does a woman know, my 30,000 taels are of other use, and the 10,000 taels of silver tickets are enough for the public." ”
Miao wanted to speak here, but who knew that the fifth master got up and left in a dashing manner, and Miao immediately followed when he saw this, and even said goodbye to Mrs. Xia Gonghou Yu Xia Gonghou.
Cai couldn't help laughing out loud when he saw this scene, and the second master coughed lightly:
"These five brothers are still so unconcerned, I don't know that these 30,000 taels of silver are enough for the fifth brother to squander for a few days."
Although the Marquis of Xia was angry in his heart, it was inconvenient for him to manage the family affairs of the fifth room, so he immediately said:
"Since there is nothing else to do, let's step back and stay here."
Everyone else benefited, and when they heard what Duke Xia said, they all immediately got up and retreated, but Mrs. Marquis Xia sat upright and did not want to leave.
Marquis Xia said to Mrs. Marquis Xia: "Go and see Dan'er, you can take the 50,000 taels of silver as your own body." ”、
Mrs. Xia Gonghou showed a satisfied look on her face, picked up the 50,000 taels of silver and left without looking back.
In the front hall, there were only two people, Xia Gonghou and Xia Yu, and Xia Gonghou said coldly:
"Get on your knees."
Xia Yi was stunned, but he stood up from the seat and did not kneel down and said:
"Why did grandfather let Gardenia kneel, Gardenia dared to ask what was wrong and offended grandfather."
Although Xia Gonghou's face was cold, there was no coldness in his eyes, Xia Yu understood that Xia Gonghou did this deliberately.
Xia Gonghou continued to say in a cold voice:
"Gardenia has left behind all the large pieces of your great-grandmother's relics, and these 150,000 taels of silver are probably one-tenth of these relics."
Xia Yan did not deny it, and stepped forward:
"Gardenia did stay, is it possible that grandfather still wants to inform everyone about this, or grandfather wants great-grandmother's relics."
Gonghou Xia's face remained unchanged and he continued to ask in a deep voice:
"I can tell my grandfather how much Gardenia has left."
Xia Gonghou guessed in his heart that the relics left by Xia Yu must be more than one million taels, after all, the old lady has been crazy about accumulating money over the years, but she is very stingy.
Xia Yu stepped forward to carefully observe the expression of the Marquis of Xia, and saw that the expression of the Marquis of Xia's Mansion was impermanent, so he dared to come one by one:
"All the items together are valued at 1,570,000 taels of silver."
When the Marquis of Xia heard this, he smiled and said:
"It's really worthy of the granddaughter of the old man, with such courage, this 1.57 million taels of silver should be given to Gardenia as a dowry, Gardenia can rest assured that her grandfather will not tell others about this."
On the way back to Xia Yan, she has been thinking about the strangeness of the Marquis of Xia, this grandfather asked her but did not move the silver she hidden, I don't know what my grandfather meant, this box has not yet returned to the courtyard, a small man hurried over, panicked and said:
"The third lady is not good, the fourth aunt and the second lady have a fight."
When Xia Yan heard this, he immediately called Yuexin and the others to rush towards Liuyuan, how could he miss this excitement, I don't know which of the two is more skilled, I am afraid that the two of them are fighting because of the ownership of the back garden of Lianxiang Courtyard.
When Xia Yu hurried over and didn't enter the courtyard gate, he heard Liu's angry words:
"You ignorant woman, if you dare to hurt my son, Mrs. Ben will surely kill you."
When Xia Yu, Yuexin and the others heard this, they immediately walked quickly towards the Liu Courtyard, but seeing Xia Lianxiang dragging a baby Lu Qian'er with one hand, she was struggling with her expression on one side, and Liu's cloak was supported by Yang Pozi to confront Xia Lianxiang, but Wen Xia Lianxiang said:
"Liu's family, you don't respect the elder, Mrs. Ben is your aunt, how dare you call Mrs. Ben an ignorant woman, Mrs. Ben hugging the son of Uncle Cheng's nephew to be said by you, a slut, to assassinate this baby boy, Liu's back garden is the garden of my Lianxiang Courtyard, and this back garden must be brought together in Lianxiang Courtyard no matter what."
