Chapter 350: The Inner Thief (I)

Thinking about it, Guan Wen also thought of this stubble, and an angry expression appeared on his face. "Ya-Wen * Yan + Love $ Shou @ Fa" Li Xin asked him: "Then you came back not long after you went......"

"There's no one in the old house, and my father and sixth brother don't know where to go."

Guan Wenchang sighed, "The fourth brother said that the matter of selling honey for export has been negotiated, and the people gave the money, and he also gave the honey to the family, and the money received was originally intended to be left in the house and waited for Ming'er to bring it to us, but then I thought about it, and I didn't worry about the big lama to put it, so I wanted to move the place and put it where he hid the money......"

"As a result, when he opened the place where he hid the money, the money he hid before was gone?"

Guan Wen nodded silently and said, "The fourth brother gave me the money for the honey, and I put it in the small box above, you can order it." ”

Guan Wen stroked his forehead: "There are only a few people in the old house, if you want to say that it was stolen by a thief, the fourth brother doesn't believe it." The old house is not rich when it looks like it, and no one will steal from them. ”

Li Xin reached out and took down the box from the horizontal wood on the inside of the bed, opened the box and counted the money in the money bag, feeling that this amount was also in order, and Guan Si did things to reassure her.

"So what now?" Li Xin closed the box and put it back, sat on the bed and asked him, "What are the plans of the fourth brother?" After a pause, Li Xin said, "Although this is not easy to ask...... But I still want to ask, how much money did the fourth brother hide? Was it all stolen from me? ”

Guan Wen nodded and said, "I don't know much about how much money I have, let alone ten taels." ”

"It's not a thief who stole it, then it can only be your father and your sixth brother who 'took' it." said that it was nice to take the word, "I can only wait for your father and sixth brother to come back and ask them if they have taken it." ”

Guan Wen closed his eyes. Appear irritable. Who would be happy to take such a ride......

Early the next morning, Li Xin accompanied her eldest brother and third brother to dinner, and Guan Wen looked in the direction of the old house. Li Dalang couldn't help but say when he saw that he was frequently distracted: "Brother Wen, if you have something, go and get busy." ”

"It's fine." Guan Wen smiled reluctantly: "It's rare for you to come here." ”

Li Dalang gave Li Xin a look. Li Xin pursed his lips and said, "You better go and have a look, I'll greet the eldest brother and third brother here." After all, I had to eat lunch before I let them go. ”

Guan Wen took a few bites of the steamed bun and drank it. Porridge said: "Then I'll take a look first." I'll be back in a minute. ”

"Brother Wen, go." Li Dalang smiled and asked him to go, and Li Ming also nodded and said, "Brother-in-law is going to be busy with you." ”

Guan Wen left, Li Xin and Ah Mei cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, and asked Li Sanlang to take Yang'er to teach him to write and write. "Ya-Wen * Yan + Love $ Shou @ Fa" Yang'er likes to learn with Li Sanlang the most, and he impromptu took Li Sanlang to the attic small study.

Li Ming came for the first time, and when he saw the attic arranged by his sister, he liked it, and he had an idea in his heart. If there is a house in the house, you must ask your sister which master built this attic, it is warm in winter and cool in summer, and there is a fireplace, so you must invite the master to compare and build.

But I said this way. Li Dalang avoided Ah Mei and frowned and asked Li Xin: "The Guan family is like this or so many things?" ”

"If someone doesn't stop, won't there be more things?" Li Xin tugged at the corners of her mouth, wiped the table and said, "Big brother, don't worry too much, after all, I don't have anything to do, and I won't take care of the things in the old house easily." ”

"You can do it yourself." Li Dalang paused and said, "In the end, the family is separated." ”

Li Xin nodded: "I know." ”

"Brother Wen takes care of his father and other brothers' affairs, don't be unhappy." Li Dalang frowned and said: "It's a relative, the broken bones are still connected to the tendons, and the bloodline is not so easy to break." The previous thing was that your father-in-law did too much, and you just ignored him in the future. But don't let Brother Wen have any conflicts with him. Li Dalang sighed: "If you can't afford to provoke him, you can still hide, just ignore him a lot." ”

"Big brother I know." Li Xin smiled: "Sister-in-law asked you to tell me, right?" ”

"Nonsense." Li Dalang lowered the corners of his mouth: "Big brother can't tell you the truth of being a daughter-in-law?" ”

"I also said that it wasn't taught by my sister-in-law, how can you say anything about being a daughter-in-law, eldest brother." Li Xinle said: "I'm doing well, don't worry about you and your sister-in-law, I have a sense of proportion in everything, and I also know what I can manage and what I can't." I don't want to manage what I don't need. Unless it provokes me, I will not easily have any dealings with Guan Wen's father. Although it is not enough to say that old age and death do not get along, but I can still do it as if I can't see him, out of sight and out of mind. ”

Li Xin paused for a moment and said, "Besides, now that Ah Wen has also learned a lesson, he won't take care of his father's affairs." This time it was his fourth brother who had an accident, and when he was the eldest brother, he always had to give his younger brother a head. He is used to this, and he can't change it, so it's up to him, as long as he can distinguish right from wrong. ”

Li Dalang stretched out his hand and patted Li Xin's shoulder, smiled and said, "People say that life is lived by themselves, which is really good." ”

Li Xin lowered his head with a smile, cleaned up the table in three or two, and asked Li Dalang to help move the rocking chair of Lao Guantou out, and sat on the rocking chair with Lao Guantou in his arms.

"My grandfather is getting older, and you will have to take care of them in the future." Li Dalang didn't know how Lao Guan became like this, but when he was like Li Yue's family, his brain was not very clear when he was older.

Li Xin naturally didn't say anything, could it be that he told his brother that he was angry with his children and grandchildren like this?

"Take care of grandpa or take care of me, grandpa is good to me, he is like this now, Awen and I naturally won't lose him." Li Xin sighed, but said with a smile: "I was taking the medicine every other day, and my grandfather's spirit was not bad, so maybe one day my grandfather's illness will be cured again?" As a human being, you must not lose hope. ”

"Yes, life is lived by people, and you have to think about it a little bit."

The brother and sister looked at each other and smiled, Ah Mei cleaned up the stove and walked out, called Brother Li shyly, and whispered to Li Xin: "Sister-in-law, I'm going to play with Sister Peony." ”

Gu Haitang, Gu Peony, and Gu Peony are the three huā of the Gu family. Gu Haitang used to be a maid in the Shen family, and achieved the position of a second-class maid, and later got the grace of the master to match her with someone to let her marry, and now she became a housekeeper daughter-in-law in the Shen family, and followed her man to continue to work for the Shen family.

Gu Peony and Gu Peony are good friends with Ah Mei, Gu Peony is about to get married, and Ah Mei often runs to Gu's house during this time. Ah Mei Ken has communicated with people, and it seems that she is much more lively, and Li Xin is naturally happy to see it.

"Go ahead." Li Xin said with a smile: "Talk to your sister Peony more, she is a new bride, there must be some drums in her heart, you go and talk to her about it, untie her, lest she be about to get married." Aren't you good sisters, it's always good to talk to her more. ”

Ah Mei nodded, went back to the house, took a sewing basket, said hello to Li Xin and went downhill. Halfway to the road, he turned back and said, "Sister-in-law, what about the eldest brother going to my father's side......"

"You don't care about that, go about your business." Li Xin smiled and said, "If there is really something, my sister-in-law will tell you." Come back early for lunch. ”

"Hmm."

Ah Mei went downhill, Li Dalang looked at the slope and said, "My sister-in-law is engaged." ”

"It's booked, the man is a showman in the town." Li Xin said with a smile: "Ah Wen and I both think it is suitable, that family has a simple population, and we know each other, and we can trust our character and morality." Ah Mei is shy, a filial and sensible child, and she should not have a hard time in the future. ”

Li Dalang nodded, but sighed again: "Speaking of brothers and sisters, it reminds me of Tiewazi." ”

"Uncle's iron cousin?" Li Xin raised his eyebrows: "What's wrong?" ”

"He is almost eighteen years old this year, and the eldest aunt is going to betrothed him." Li Dalang took the bamboo slice and scraped it on the ground, and said idly: "But you also know that Cousin Tie is like that, if he says it well, he is weak, and if he doesn't say it well, he can't pull a few, he can't pick his shoulders and can't lift it, it's worse than a girl, which girl can afford him?" If he were a scholar, it would be fine, and it would be reasonable to say that he was weak, but he didn't read a single big word, and he couldn't plant a field because he was physically weak, and he gave birth to a boy in vain, and the first two brothers were not good characters, so it was difficult to say goodbye to him. ”

"That's also what the eldest aunt is worried about, what are you worried about, big brother." Li Xin smiled and said, "Uncle and Uncle Niang will not let Cousin Tie beat a bachelor." ”

"That's what I said...... Li Dalang paused: "That day, the eldest aunt also asked if your sister-in-law was not engaged, and she was blocked back by her mother's words." ”

Li Xin suddenly raised his eyebrows.

Li Dalang spread his hands helplessly and said: "If it weren't for the eldest aunt who couldn't find someone, how could she call our relatives here?" ”

Li Xin raised the corners of her lips: "Ah Mei is engaged, but Ah Xiu is not." However, if the object is Ah Xiu, I am afraid that the eldest aunt will not be able to 'climb'. ”

Li Dalang looked at her puzzled, Li Xin said: "Ah Xiu's temperament, eldest brother, you don't know, if Ah Xiu really becomes a member of their family, but if Ah Xiu can't look at any point, I'm afraid that the uncle's family will be disturbed." The first thing that can't be seen is Cousin Tong, don't think about living a peaceful life in the uncle's family. ”

Li Dalang was thoughtful, Li Xin smiled: "Don't talk about this, since my mother blocked the eldest aunt back, this can be regarded as a shadowless matter." ”

Li Dalang also smiled: "I just mentioned to you the recent family incidents." ”

Near noon, Ah Mei came back, and after a while, Guan Wen also came back, with a little bruise on his face, it looked like he had been beaten, and his face was very ugly.

Li Xin made a special trip to call Guan Wu and Xing'er to come over for lunch together, and it happened that Guan Wu and Xing'er came over with Xiaokang, and Li Ming took Yang'er down from the attic, and happened to see Guan Wen coming up from the slope.

His face was as heavy as water, and the green tendons on the back of his hand pinching the side collar of his shirt were prominent.

Guan Wu suddenly stepped forward and asked, "Big brother, what's the matter with you?" What's on your face? Who was beaten! ”

Li Xin was also stunned for a moment and hurriedly ran over.

Guan Wen covered half of his face after being beaten, but he didn't say a word. (To be continued.)
