Shen Lingxi raised his eyes and looked at the owner of the voice.

It was an old man with a very mean and indifferent face.

He was slender and thin, with a bamboo cane in his hand, and wore a blue shirt that had been washed with a whitish pulp.

It looks like a poor relative who came to fight the autumn breeze.

The old man's dim eyes were looking at her, and his eyes were full of pickiness.

For the clan relatives of the Xuanping Marquis Mansion, Shen Lingxi didn't know any of them.

Fortunately, there are still ancestors sitting on the side.

"This one is your grandfather's cousin, the second in the clan, you should call him the second uncle." The old ancestor smiled and said: "Now the affairs of the Shen family clan are all in his charge, don't look at him as vicious, in fact, he is the most soft-hearted, if it wasn't for him in the early years, my bones, I'm afraid I would have broken in my hometown a long time ago...... He also has a nickname called Ergouzi, and we all call him Shen Ergou......"

Shen Ergou ......

Shen Lingxi's forehead twitched.

Shen Ji on the side looked at Shen Lingxi coldly, and he didn't mean to introduce her at all.

He had long expected that since this girl chose to hand over the account books today, she must have planned to be a demon in front of the clan elders.

But she doesn't even recognize anyone, and who will support her.

"What are you doing in a daze, why don't you meet the elders soon." Shen Ji urged.

Old ancestor: "Girl, don't be afraid, you go up and ask Ergouzi a word for me, ask him if he brought what he promised me on the Cold Food Festival, if he brought, let him hand it over to you for safekeeping." ”

Shen Lingxi obeyed, turned to the old man, and respectfully blessed him, "Lingxi has seen the second uncle ancestor."

Seeing Shen Lingxi shouting and saluting, Shen Ji could not hide the surprise on his face, and his eyes were a little suspicious.

The patriarch has only started to manage clan affairs in recent years, and has been in Hongwu's hometown before, and rarely enters Beijing.

Even the old servants in this house may not be able to recognize him.

How did Shen Lingxi recognize it?

The patriarch snorted coldly, which can be regarded as responding to Shen Lingxi's title.

Shen Lingxi smiled and said: "Second Uncle Ancestor, before my grandmother passed by, I told Lingxi, if I see you, let me tell you, if you promised to bring her something from the Cold Food Festival before, please hand it over to me for safekeeping." ”

As soon as these words came out, the patriarch looked at Shen Lingxi's gaze, and immediately became a little different.

"Keep it in my room, and I'll have someone bring it to you later."

He said in a deep voice, "I heard Da Lang say that the keys to your grandmother's treasury and account books are in your hands, and you plan to hand over the things to the big house and the second room in front of us old guys. ”

The meaning of the words is to support Shen Lingxi.

Shen Ji couldn't have imagined that Shen Lingxi would reverse the patriarch's attitude with just one sentence.

She also asked the patriarch for something—

What do you want? Isn't it the land deeds of the hometown under the name of the ancestors? There are salt pans and gold mines in those land deeds, and if you leak a little, you can cover the expenses of the Hou Mansion for a year, if it is taken up by this girl......

What Shen Ji could think of, Shen Liang could naturally think of.

He tried his best to win Shen Ji's sympathy and stayed in the mansion in order to be able to get the share of the family property in the mourning hall today.

How can he tolerate Shen Lingxi, this dead girl who has repeatedly spoiled his good deeds.

Shen Jina's brain, he couldn't count on it.

At this juncture, you can only come by yourself.

Before Shen Lingxi could speak, Shen Liang took the lead in grabbing Bai Yitong:

"Second uncle, this girl was born in the countryside, and she deals with those monks and Taoist aunts and other three-class and ninth-rate people all day long, and she is used to stealing and playing tricks, and her mother was deceived by her rhetoric in the first place, so she gave her the treasury key and account book. Now she is unwilling to let go, and will definitely find some excuse to embezzle her mother's private property, but don't be deceived by her. ”

His career is hopeless, and he will help his ancestors take care of general affairs on weekdays, and he has always been good friends with the elders of the clan.

This patriarch, in particular, treats him as his own. As long as he asks for something, the patriarch has nothing to do, not to mention that he just reminded him just now.

"What the second brother said is right, uncle, just listen to this girl's words, just forget it, don't take it too seriously." Shen Ji also agreed.

The two brothers said so, and the patriarch looked at Shen Lingxi's gaze, and immediately became a little vigilant.

Shen Lingxi sighed faintly, "Originally, I wasn't embarrassed, but when Second Master Shen said this, then I was really embarrassed." ”

She took out a piece of deed paper from her sleeve and said innocently: "This is a piece of deed of division left by my grandmother before her death, and it is written on the deed that the antiques, calligraphy and paintings, and jewelry in my grandmother's treasury are left to the big house, and the remaining land deeds and house deeds are left to the second room." But now the second master says I'm a liar...... Then this deed is also fake? ”

"How is this possible?!" Shen Ji's face was stunned, and then his face sank: "Five girls, don't talk nonsense in front of the clan elders, you should know, this is absolutely impossible!" ”

Antique calligraphy and painting are only worth a few dollars, and the title deed and house deed are the big heads.

Up and down the house, all rely on the things in the ancestors' private treasury, and give the title deed to the second room, and the big house is waiting to drink the northwest wind.

Shen Lingxi bent his lips and smiled, and spread out the deed paper in his hand, with the side of the words and the letter facing outward.

"Master Hou, look at what you said, I just listened to my grandmother's instructions, and on the deed handed over to me by Cui's mother, it was written in black and white, stamped with my grandmother's private seal, and it was written like this, if Lord Hou didn't believe it, you could find the government to check it."

Not to mention Shen Ji, even Shen Liang didn't figure out the situation.

He hurriedly asked Cui Kite to push him to Shen Lingxi, reached out and grabbed the deed in her hand, and read it carefully.

"Yes...... This is indeed the mother's seal, it is the mother's word, the author is the mother, the witness is Mrs. Wu Anbo, this is true, it is true! Shen Liang was so happy that his voice couldn't help but become excited, how could he tell that it was the person who broke his two legs not long ago.

He originally just wanted to get the share of the second room that was enough, but now it is most of the family business.

How could he not be pleasantly surprised.

Shen Liang hugged the deed in front of him, hugged it tightly, the corners of his eyes were full of tears, and he trembled with gratitude: "Mother is really ...... Sure enough, it hurts me the most......"

Shen Jiren was numb, and he didn't understand at all where this deed came from.

Shen Lingxi hated Shen Liang to death because of the death of his ancestor, even if he really had such a thing as a deed, how could he take it out.

"Fake, it must be fake." Shen Ji's face was gloomy, and he was about to step forward and grab the deed to see what it was.

It was still Xiao An's beside him, who pulled his sleeve in time, "Master Hou, you forgot, the old ancestor also left you a letter when he was alive......" She attached it to Shen Ji's ear and reminded in a low voice, "Even if that letter doesn't work, don't you still have the handle of the second room in your hand?" ”

These words were like an initiation, which made Shen Ji immediately sober up, and there was a trace of murderous intent in his eyes.

Yes.

The second wolf is ambitious, colludes with the party, and harms his relatives, and his mother died because of him.

Such wolf-hearted, heinous people cannot stay, must not stay!
