During the meal, Master Qu didn't come over very stubbornly, and Mrs. Qu didn't let people go to urge and invite, but just took Qu Hongze and Qu Hongxiu to accompany the brothers and sisters to eat, and even the concubines didn't let them come over, because Ling Feng was not good at coming over to accompany the young lady to avoid suspicion, and Qu Hongxiu, who was commensurate with Ling Feng's brother and sister, did not have so many taboos.

Here, Mrs. Qu chatted with Ling Xiaorou about the trivial matters after the separation, and when she talked about the thrill after being plundered, Mrs. Qu couldn't help but exclaim, when she learned that Ling Xiaorou had bought some more properties in the capital.

Thinking of his son who was rushing to take the exam in Beijing, there was news that if he could pass the exam, Qu Hongan intended to stay in Beijing as an official.

As for the problem of failing the exam, there is no need to think about it at all, not to mention that Qu Hongan originally had real talent and real learning, even if He Louyu helped dredge it in the capital, there was no possibility of landing.

Mrs. Qu also intends to do business in the capital, on the one hand, she can take care of her son, and she can also stay away from these bad things at home, after all, even if she enters Beijing, it is impossible to move the entire Qu family at once, and she can also be out of sight and out of mind with these concubines and concubines.

Talking to Ling Xiaorou about the idea of going to Beijing, Ling Xiaorou also agreed, instead of staying to watch Master Qu worrying, she could still be a companion with her in the capital, compared to those official ladies in the capital who always like to look at people from the corner of their eyes, Ling Xiaorou still likes Qu Hongxiu more.

So, Mrs. Qu took her daughter and daughter-in-law to Beijing and finalized it at the dinner table.

Mrs. Qu was about to order someone to prepare her luggage, and it was best to go to the capital with Ling Xiaorou tomorrow, so that they could take care of each other, and there would be no problem if the shop at home was taken care of.

Before the things were ready, someone came to report, saying that the little daughter-in-law brought back by the master was making a fuss about leaving, and the master couldn't stop him, so he asked the lady to go over and give an explanation.

Mrs. Qu couldn't help but laugh, "The master can't keep people by himself, why do you want Mrs. Ben to give an explanation?" ”

The left and right meals are about the same, and she also has to personally bring people to prepare some valuable things to bring to Beijing, and it is nothing to go over and take a look by the way.

The ugly thing in the left and right family was also known to Ling Xiaorou and Ling Feng, and Mrs. Qu had no intention of letting the two of them avoid it, so they came to the courtyard where Master Qu placed Xiuying.

I saw Master Qu pulling Xiuying's sleeve and kept persuading, "Don't go, Xiuying, Master Ming'er will go and buy you a few people waiting for you." ”

Xiuying was full of sadness, "Master, it's not Xiuying who is ruthless, you can also see it, Xiuying is a person who doesn't attract pain in this mansion, Madame has good means, Xiuying really doesn't dare to stay......"

Mrs. Qu smiled and said, "This little lady, do you mean to say Madame, what do you do to you?" ”

Xiuying didn't expect Mrs. Qu to come over suddenly, and listened to what she said, originally she was just pretending to leave to scare Master Qu, so that he could show some strength, but after Mrs. Qu listened to her words, her scalp was numb, and she dared to stay.

Although Mrs. Qu looks very kind, but a lady who can clean up all the concubines in the house is obedient and close, and she doesn't even buy the master's account, will she be a simple person?

In fact, what Xiuying doesn't know is that Mrs. Qu really doesn't have those concubines, she should eat and drink without them, and the people who are waiting for her should also give them, but the way Master Qu sold the old people to welcome the new people hurt people's hearts, and those concubines were afraid that when the master looked down on them in the future, they would also have the same fate as those concubines who were sold.

Now some of them are old, and no one is willing to buy them as concubines if they are really sold, even if they are sold to others as servants, they may not be willing to ask them for these shoulders that they can't pick and handle, and if they are really sold, they can only suffer.

Since the lord is unreliable, they can only hug the lady's thigh, anyway, the affairs in the house are the lady's decision, as long as the lady does not agree, the lord may not be able to sell them even if he has the heart.

As a result, the concubines who were completely disappointed in the master naturally regarded Mrs. Qu as their lifeline.

But Xiuying, who didn't know the truth, seemed to have become Mrs. Qu's terrifying means, and the concubines were miserable and scared, so they respected her out of fear.

Xiuying became even more determined to leave, grabbed the hand of Master Qu who was holding her sleeve, and tears fell down, "Master, you have also seen it, Madame is strong, Xiuying is blessed, I can't wait for the master, I hope the master takes care." ”

After speaking, he broke off Master Qu's fingers, covered his face and ran out.

"Xiuying, don't go!" After shouting, Master Qu pointed at Mrs. Qu and said angrily: "Look at the good things you have done!" ”

Mrs. Qu smiled and asked Master Qu: "Master, I really don't know what good things I have done for my wife, and I ask my master to make it clear." ”

Master Qu opened his mouth, thinking that Mrs. Qu really didn't do anything to Xiuying, so it can be said that he didn't even look at her from beginning to end.

Seeing that Xiuying was about to run out of the house, Master Qu didn't have the heart to talk to Mrs. Qu here, and then chased after him.

Mrs. Qu's eyes darkened, although she had long been dead to Master Qu, and even tired of it, but when she thought of marrying such a man, Mrs. Qu would always be a little unwilling, after all, it was really sad to maintain the hypothesis of husband and wife in front of outsiders.

Seeing that Master Qu was completely ignoring his image to catch up, Mrs. Qu shouted behind her: "Master, my wife will go to Beijing tomorrow, and all the affairs in the house will be handed over to the master." ”

Master Qu's footsteps paused, Xiuying's footsteps also paused, and then the speed of running was much slower, and he was easily caught up by Master Qu.

Master Qu half-pulled and half-dragged people to Mrs. Qu, his face was both happy and uneasy, Mrs. Qu left, and no one cared about him in the house, but as soon as Mrs. Qu left, what about the family's expenses?

Mrs. Qu also guessed Master Qu's thoughts, and sneered: "Later, the master will go to his wife to retrieve the account books in the house, and in the future, the Qu family's property will be handed over to the master to take care of, and he will not ask for his wife anymore." ”

"I know for my husband!" As long as he gets the power of the housekeeper in the house, he is still worried about not having any money?

Thinking of the shops that have opened the most popular in Gao County recently, although Mrs. Qu has repeatedly said that the shops are Ling Xiaorou's, she just helps take care of them and make a few small dollars to spend, but Master Qu believes that there are ghosts.

Since the lady is leaving, and she has to hand over the account book, Master Qu can't help but show joy on his face, does he want to make the silver still beg for people with carelessness in the future? That's not how much you want to use.

Mrs. Qu said again: "Tomorrow, I will take Xiu'er, Ze'er, and the young lady into Beijing as my wife, and the affairs of the future mansion will be bothered by the old man." ”

Master Qu nodded again and again, "Madam, don't worry, the master will definitely keep the house in order." ”

Mrs. Qu felt that as long as she left the Qu family, it wouldn't be long before the Qu family would be defeated by Master Qu, but the Qu family, which was originally just an empty shell, had nothing to be nostalgic for.

As for the shops she opened later, Mrs. Qu didn't plan to leave it to Mr. Qu at all, and the silver she earned in more than half a year, Mrs. Qu had already let people exchange it for silver tickets, and they were properly hidden, that is, Mr. Qu didn't know where to find it, and he rushed Ming'er into Beijing, which was all capital.

Not to mention that Master Qu took Xiuying back to the courtyard happily, but only said that Mrs. Qu and Qu Hongxiu went back to pack up their things separately, and the young lady also asked people to tell them.

Mrs. Qu's dowry has not been left to supplement the family over the years, but fortunately, after earning more silver in the past half a year, she has added it back, of course, most of these are to be kept for Qu Hongxiu to make a dowry in the future, and some of them are the dowry prepared by Mrs. Qu for Ling Xiaorou, although she is a righteous daughter, Mrs. Qu also wants to do her best, and when she earns more silver in the future, the dowry will still add a lot.

After cleaning up like this, more than 20 cars were loaded in the evening, Qu Hongxiu also loaded five cars with fewer things, and the young lady also loaded more than a dozen cars.

When the car was pulled out of Qu's mansion in a queue, Master Qu was a little anxious, before he only thought that Mrs. Qu was going to the capital to see her son, and he would come back after a while, he really didn't expect Mrs. Qu to really plan to go to the capital to live for a long time.

And as soon as he left, the house was about to be emptied, so he hurriedly came over to stop it, "Madam, how can you say that you are really leaving?" It's not like you won't come back in the future, so you don't have to bring all your things, right? If you have a master, are you afraid of losing it? ”

Mrs. Qu glanced at him very coldly, "Master, An'er is alone in Beijing, and she can't rest assured for her wife, not to mention that Xiu'er has also reached the age of marriage, and she wants to find a good family for her in Beijing for her as a wife, if she is well settled, she will not come back for her wife, and the ancestral business of the Qu family will be left to the master, and the account book will be placed in the wife's room, and I hope that the master will take good care of the house." As for these things...... Hehe, this is all the dowry for his wife back then, as well as the dowry of his daughter-in-law, does the lord also want to help take care of it? ”

No matter how shameless Master Qu is, he knows that he didn't help his daughter-in-law take care of the dowry, although he had thought about using the dowry of his wife and daughter-in-law before, it was only a little bit, if there were rumors that he was going to manage the dowry for his daughter-in-law, he wouldn't have to go out, and he would drown people by spitting on the stars.

Fortunately, the account book of the Qu family is still there, and the old man Qu is eager to try to manage the accounts, but when he was young, he was greedy for fun, and he had handed over all the affairs of the family to his wife, and later wanted to take it back and was blocked by his wife's fluttering words.

When the concubines of Master Qu and the concubines of Qu Hongan heard that the lady and the young lady were going to enter Beijing, they all cried and chased out, wanting to follow them into Beijing, but Mrs. Qu also said that they didn't know how to settle in Beijing and couldn't bring too many people.

Although Master Qu said that everyone would not deduct their monthly expenses, it was obvious that his prestige was no longer there, and even Master Qu's concubines had begun to imagine whether they would start selling them again after the family was defeated by Master Qu.

As for the concubines of the Qu family, they also began to worry about the dowry, when Mrs. Qu was there, they were afraid that their mother-in-law would treat them harshly in the dowry, and once the mother-in-law was gone, they didn't dare to imagine whether their scumbag father would remember to prepare a dowry for them.
