After hearing this punishment, Lao An's mother-in-law almost fainted, twenty boards? Still divide the old five out? How does this work? The fifth child is the only person in the family who earns money, what should he do if he divides the family? Her eldest grandson married a daughter-in-law, so why is it good to study?

And Ge Mingyu and Liu Mei have already knelt down crying and begging the officials, begging them to crawl over on their knees and begging Xia Qiyue, begging Wang Liya, and even more, they are already beating themselves in the mouth.

Wang Liya couldn't stand it anymore, and was just about to speak, but was pulled out by Xia Qiyue, "Let's go, it's very noisy here, and it's even bloodier to play the board in a while, let's go home!" ”

Xia Qiyue's sentence of going home brought out the tears of Wang Liya, who had been desperately enduring all along.

She shouted softly, "Fourth sister-in-law..."

Xia Qiyue should be deaf to how she cried in the back, anyway, An Zichen was behind her, Liu Mei and the others couldn't help her, so she handed over her back to him with peace of mind and walked out slowly.

"Fourth sister-in-law, I still have some things to clean up..."Wang Liya walked out of the upper room and sorted out her emotions.

"Go, I'll go with you!"

——

The man of the old An family didn't seem to be able to hear this loud cry, until the old An woman couldn't shout, An Zihang couldn't help but run out and blocked the board for her a few times.

The matter was solved too simply and crudely, Xia Qiyue went to inquire afterwards, Liu Mei and Ge Mingyu were dragged in by their own men, and the place where they were beaten was blurred from the back waist to the thighs, and it was said that they would have to fall ill if they were not disabled.

A big knot in Xia Qiyue's heart has also been solved, the original owner was killed by Liu Mei, and Ge Mingyu almost threw her daughter into the wolf's mouth, although she took revenge at the time, but she always felt that there was still a little lacking, and now, it is also complete, in the future, there will be no grudges with that family, let alone too many entanglements, as for the old An Touzi, he is the father of An Zichen's brothers, and there is no blood feud with them, and they should be supported.

"Ah Chen, you tell your father, if he is willing to live with me, we can take him over, if he is unwilling, give him a sum of silver, even if it is alimony!"

Xia Qiyue thought about it for a night, and finally made a decision, as a child, even if he knew that Lao An was not a good person, he couldn't leave a handle for people to look back and criticize her son and daughter, and even, An Zichen was still a general, and the officialdom in the future would definitely not be too small.

In addition, if Lao An is alone, he can't afford to make waves, his biggest advantage is that he will judge the situation and know that the fourth and fifth children have a future and a future, and he will never do anything that is sorry for these two sons and makes them feel cold.

Sitting at the dining table, there was a hearty breakfast on the table, next to it was a sensible, kind and beautiful little daughter-in-law, and opposite sat two lovely, well-behaved and smart children, An Zichen was extremely satisfied.

In addition, the reason why he has not been favored by his mother all these years is also known, and he feels that his entire chest is happy, and he is about to overflow with happiness.

Hearing his little wife say this, he nodded happily, "Okay, I'll go after breakfast for my husband!" ”

No matter what he said, he had to add a word as a husband, for fear that if he didn't say that, he wouldn't be her husband.

"Good!" Xia Qiyue nodded, and did not forget to add vegetables to the two children.

An Zichen went to find Lao An after eating, and when he got there, he definitely didn't get any good face, and even the three An Zicheng brothers were eyeing people to beat people.

An Zichen was born in the military again, and now he has mixed up with the title of major general, and the three of them together can't beat, he is ready to teach these three people a lesson, but at this time, Lao An Tou came out.

"Fourth, what's the matter with you coming here?"

An Zichen turned around and saw his haggard father, although they deserved it, but it was understandable that his father was on fire, he groaned and spoke.

"Dad, I'm here to talk to you about something!"

Lao An pointed to the house where An Zihao and his family lived before, they had moved to Xia Qiyue's house, and it was empty, and the two daughters-in-law who were willing to play with right and wrong couldn't get off the kang now, so no one robbed it here.

An Zichen followed the old man into the house, slammed the door shut, and blocked the three brothers who were going to go in with him.

After entering the door, he did not hesitate, and saw that his father was already sitting on the kang and began to smoke dry tobacco, so he sat down and spoke.

"Dad, I have two things to do today, the first is, I want to ask about my mother, can you tell me how much you know?"

Lao An let out a puff of smoke, knowing that the fourth child must have come over to this matter, he sighed and was ready, so he spoke slowly.

"Your mother, she is a young lady from an official family, because the family made a big mistake, she was sent to the Qinglou..."

"Dad, I don't have much interest in your experience, I just want to know, where is my mother now? Are you really like what you said before, you don't know anything? ”

Lao An raised his head, looked at this son who he could no longer control, and answered his words honestly, "After the fifth child spoke, she disappeared!" ”

An Zichen further asked, "Is there a portrait of her?" ”

Lao An shook his head, he couldn't draw, how could there be any portraits?

"Okay, then I won't waste any more time asking you about it, the second thing I'm here today is that I and the fifth child have a question about your support! Although the Li family is not our two mothers, you are still our father, and we still have the responsibility to support you, so we will not ignore you! ”

As soon as the old man heard this, his cloudy eyes instantly had a bright light.

It's not that he didn't want to go over to find these two sons, but the things in front of him made him a little discouraged, and he didn't dare to touch them easily, the son in front of him was no longer the fourth child he could control, and he was worried that if he went to him at this juncture and said these words, he was afraid that it would have the opposite effect.

And outside the door, the three people who had been eavesdropping and didn't leave also had the same reaction, and they wanted to know how much silver the fourth child could give his father.

Seeing his father's reaction, An Zichen directly put the two choices given by Xia Qiyue.

"Dad, I'll give you two choices now, you can choose by yourself, one, follow us for four rooms, but the premise is that I don't take the Li family, because she has nothing to do with me, I have no obligation to support her! Second, the fifth child and I will give you alimony, or give you alimony for 30 years at one time, and then break off your family, and you don't have to look for us again if there is anything in the future! Or, five taels of silver a year, this is just for you, and it has nothing to do with anyone else! But don't worry, Dad, I will give the silver on time on the second day of the Lunar New Year every year! What does Daddy think? ”

Lao An's head almost didn't think about it, and said, "Fourth, Dad is also old, there is nothing to look forward to, Daddy's only wish is that his children and grandchildren can have a chance, let Dad get a light, be an old lady, and take care of his life, and other fathers don't want to, Dad will follow you in the fourth room, and the Li family also has three sons, and Dad has nothing to worry about!" ”
