Looking at their cousin's words and deeds, both of them were thinking, such a good person, why did their uncle sell her and cut off relations with her, what a fool.

Qiao's family is at home, and as soon as he heard that there was no share of the food in his family, he was angry.

Although it was Qian Zhenchang's hair that they inquired about, they could quickly think that this must be the money donated by the white-eyed wolf.

Qiao's family always shows off in the village when they can't get food, "This is the grain that my daughter's money bought, you give me some points." ”

Some people in the village who couldn't get used to them replied: "Your daughter's? Let's see if she recognizes you first. ”

"Hmph, do you believe it or not, I asked my daughter to take back the grain?"

"This was given by Mayor Qian, not by your daughter."

"It's my daughter's, she deliberately said that so as not to let us know."

"You can pull it down!"

Qiao Shicheng's eyes were red when he saw the big bag of grain, and he was about to go up to grab it with his son, but he was beaten home by the villagers.

No one eats him, they all know who he is, just find a face for themselves and brag about it.

As for the Yuan family, with the temperament of the old couple, they have already asked their four sons to make firewood for them, and they have never gone out since it snowed, and they nest at home every day, for fear that one will accidentally freeze to death when they go out, so it is not cost-effective, and the silver in their hands has not been spent.

But the fifth child, these two people never planned to let go.

Why do they have to spend the winter in the adobe house as parents, and why do their sons have to live a good life in the big house.

It should be that they are in Jixiangyuan, and the fifth father and son are here in the adobe house.

So these two people are really evil, and they actually went to encourage the four of them again.

"I said you don't stay at home, the road is open, you go to find the fifth child, it's getting colder and colder in the future, why can't he help you some?"

"Mother, don't toss, it doesn't matter to you whether we go or not."

"Why doesn't it matter? You're not going to give us a New Year's gift? ”

"It's still early,"

None of the four sons wanted to deal with them, but they listened to the old man's words.

They had gone to see the Yuan family before, and they had also sent things, although the patriarch's incident made the Yuan family angry, but they were still the same as him, and they should be able to give it a try.

In this way, the four brothers came to Qiao's house together.

Yuan Jiaqi frowned when he heard that they were coming, but thinking that they had brought things to see him before, he put down his books and came to the front hall.

"Big brother, second brother, third brother, fourth brother."

"Old Five, you have to save us."

As he spoke, the four big men actually shed tears, pretending to be pitiful.

"What the hell is going on?"

"The snow is too big, part of the house is pressed, we are all huddled together to keep warm, see if you can help us, you can rest assured that we don't need silver, just give some food and firewood, but the grain stores in the town are closed, and there is no grain in it."

The four brothers discussed it when they came, they must not ask for silver, they must come step by step, ask for food first, and then look at the attitude of the fifth brother.

As long as he can give the first, he can give the second.

In the end, it is not really ruthless, Yuan Jiaqi sighed in his heart.

"Is a hundred catties of grain and a large bundle of firewood enough for a family?"

"Enough, enough, thank you fifth brother, thank you fifth brother."

"How did you get here?"

"Walking"

"Go back and push a cart here, or you won't be able to bring it back."

"Can you?"

"No, it's not right to give food without her consent, if you don't go home and push the cart to pull it away, don't ask for this food, I have no obligation to send it to your home."

"Let's push, push."

The four of them ran back to the village, pushed a cart from the house and went to Qiao's house, where four large bags of grain and four large bundles of firewood were already placed at the door.

The mother-in-law said with a cold face, "My aunt said that he still has something to do, so let's take it away from the family." ”

"Whoa, whoa!"

The mother-in-law gave them a blank look, and after watching them pull away the grain and firewood, she closed the door.

Because of this incident, the Yuan family has been uneasy, he can't read the book, and he came to Qiao Mai's door uneasily.

"Lady, can I go in?"

Qiao Mai was doing embroidery work on the kang when he heard his voice and was stunned.

"Come in!"

Seeing him come in, she motioned with her eyes, "Sit down, there is tea on the table and pour it yourself, and I have my hands here." ”

"Lady, without your consent today, I gave the four brothers of the Yuan family a bag of cornmeal and a large bundle of firewood."

Qiao Mai listened to the needle on the cloth and rubbed her face with her hand, she looked at him a little uncomfortable and said.

"Although the two of us have signed the paperwork, but at present, you are also a member of the family, let's not talk about that little thing, let's talk about you, a scholar."

Yuan Jiaqi looked at her a little puzzled, and didn't know what she meant by this.

"Huh?"

"First of all, is the Yuan family really unable to live?"

"Those two old men have silver in their hands, and they divide the family, how can one person get a hundred taels of silver, and more than ten acres of land."

"Yes, if you go out, you won't build a new house? The new house just let the snow fall? I advise you to dress warmly, and let Wu Chai and Sai Xue follow you back to have a look, hearing is false, seeing is believing. ”

Yuan Jiaqi's face was instantly difficult to see, he was blinded by this family affection, he listened to whatever people said, and he never thought that he was deceived.

If this is the case, what kind of official will he be, and he will judge the case in the future, how can he judge the case like this?

So he stood up suddenly, "I was wrong, thank you lady for mentioning it, I'll go back to the village quietly to have a look." ”

"Go and see, relatives can't lie to relatives."

Qiao Mai lowered his head, continued to do embroidery work with an embroidery needle, and Yuan Jia's eyes were red and he walked out of the house.

What he hoped in his heart was that the eldest brother would not lie to him, and his heart, which was a little warm, was gradually frozen.

He went back to the house and got dressed, and he didn't call Wu Chai and Saixue, and set out on the road back to the village alone.

The surroundings were quiet, there was no figure, and the old height of the snowdrifts on both sides was difficult to hide, and they were all patted solidly.

He was just thinking about today's events, and he didn't go far when Wu Chai and Sai Xue caught up.

His heart warmed, this must have been the lady who asked them to come, these two dogs are very spiritual and very brave, several people can't do these two.

Just let them bite into it, and the bones will break.

Half an hour later, he came to the entrance of Xinghua Village, and on such a cold day, he couldn't even see a child in the village.

He walked quietly with two dogs alone.

There are few new houses in Xinghua Village, except for adobe houses that are still adobe houses, but a few are newly built, which can be seen from the shape of the adobe bricks of the wall.

Walking from the head of the village to the end of the village and back again, not a single house collapsed.

He came to the outside of a new house with a gloomy face, slammed the door, and a woman's voice sounded in the courtyard.

"Who?"

Yuan Jiaqi didn't snort with a broken face, and continued to knock on the door with his hand.

The woman scolded as she walked angrily, "Don't shout and hum, keep knocking hard, what are you knocking hard, driving you to death and reincarnating?" ”

When she opened the door and saw Yuan Jiaqi, her face was as ugly as eating.

"That, five, fifth brother, you, you're here?"

"I'll see if your house is collapsing!"

The woman was stunned and at a loss, and at this time several men came out of the house, full of wine, and it was the four brothers who were just about to take the food.

Coincidentally, he knocked on the door at random, and he blocked them all.

Is this something coming, and the heart is happy to celebrate?

"Big brother, are you really so Yaxing? If the house collapses, you can still drink here, my little brother will come to see your house, yo, it's all collapsed like this, and there is still a place to drink and chat? It's not easy! ”
