There is a big mansion in the south of the city, the east and west of the house are extremely spacious and Zhouzheng, and the gate is also very magnificent, but unfortunately the paint on the door has been mottled and peeled off, adding a bit of bleakness.

Xu is cold, the little guy standing at the door shows no energy, yawning one after another, raising his hand to cover his mouth, and the cuffs can vaguely see the raw edges.

At this time, the housewife in the house looked at the two pieces of jewelry in front of her and was in a dilemma, and she didn't know which one to pawn in exchange for the New Year.

There were two women standing next to them with low eyebrows, wearing fifty or sixty percent of new clothes, one of them raised his head and said carefully, "Mother, several girls in the house have grown up fast in the past year, and they have no clothes to go out to meet guests." ”

The other person also spoke carefully, "Uncle also needs to buy an extra outfit, the one he is wearing now is still from last year, so he doesn't have to change it?" ”

The leader sighed and made a decision, "Take it all." ”

As soon as the words fell, the little girl came back and forth, "Old lady, we have a guest in our house, and the old lady invites the old lady to the main hall to speak." ”

"Who's coming?"

The old lady who was called the old lady of the Qin family in the capital, was a little surprised when she heard the girl's words, no one from their Qin family had come to the door for a long time, didn't they come to ask for debts?

The little girl looked happy, "It's Uncle Shunyi." ”

The doorkeeper was her brother, and he said that he had given a reward as soon as he entered the door, a tael of silver, and his brother was so happy that he was going to fly.

Old Madam Qin was a little surprised, she knew about Shunyi Bofu, the upstart in the capital, and everyone who talked about him was extremely wealthy.

As a guest, Mrs. Qin also deliberately changed into a decent clothes, and the hairpin that she said she wanted to pawn was also put on her head, and she took a girl, posed as a noble family, and walked to the main hall.

In the main hall, Lord Qin in the capital frowned, "What you said is true?" ”

The eldest brother of the Qin family nodded very seriously, "Back then, my great-grandfather was separated from his family in Lingxiao City, all the way, and then encountered a famine, fled all the way, and had a serious illness, many things are not very clear, I vaguely remember that there is a big mansion in the capital, and it is said that there is a peach tree in the courtyard, there is a well next to the tree, and there is an elder named Qi Yu in the house." ”

"At that time, the family was poor, and it was impossible to find relatives, and then no one mentioned the death of my great-grandfather."

The news was bought by Cheng Daqi with money, the Gaomen family has a huge population, who hasn't lost one or two people?

As long as the story makes sense.

Cheng Daqi said: "A few days ago, I had a banquet in the house, and I happened to hear that there was a person named Qi Yu in the house, and I thought that all aspects were right, so I came to ask today, what if it is?" ”

After listening to it at the door for a while, Old Madam Qin suppressed the ecstasy in her heart, what happens at this time, it must be!

This is the wealth delivered to the door.

Raised their feet and entered the door, everyone saluted each other, Lord Qin told everything, Old Madam Qin first thought about it, and then said in an uncertain tone, "That peach tree withered a few years ago, and the well is still there, I remember hearing my mother say before, someone has been separated before, that is, in Lingxiao City, why don't you check it?" ”

Even if there is no such person on the family tree, it must be written immediately, if there is no one who can support the family to come out, they will have to sell the house, and at that time they will be ashamed, and they will be ashamed of their ancestors, and they will not even be able to keep the family business.

Cheng Daqi gave Cheng Daqian a look that this thing was going to be done, in their news, the Qin family in the capital was only one step away from selling the house, and the shop under his name had already been sold, and the two little Qin adults in the house, no, they were not adults, and the two idle jobs without any oil and water were all problems for themselves.

In the past two years, they have all relied on the support of the maiden families of the two daughters-in-law in the house, but these two in-laws are also noble families, and they are not rich and noble, and the old lady Qin in front of her pawned jewelry more than once.

Such a big house looks very old.

In other words, they must also catch the rich relatives who are sent to the door, whether it is true or not.

The father and son of the Qin family also have a number in their hearts, the more they understand the Qin family in the capital, the more satisfied they are, the ancestors are all literati, scholarly families, and the highest has achieved the second grade, and the father of the current head of the family has also been a governor before, that is, the Qin family in front of him is not good, and his luck is not good, and he is declining day by day.

But such a person used to be outstanding in literature and famous in the imperial examination.

Satisfied, quite satisfied.

As long as they can come up, they can suddenly become merchants and turn into scholarly heirlooms.

Old Madam Qin asked the father and son of the Qin family a few more questions, and the two of them came prepared and naturally answered each other fluently, making Lord Qin also a little convinced that they might be separated relatives.

"Do you have any physical evidence?"

The father and son shook their heads, and the eldest brother of the Qin family said: "I heard that the great-ancestor also had two valuable objects on his body before, but at that time, life was hard, and they all lost their lives. ”

This reason is also very sufficient, Lord Qin asked the name of his great-grandfather, and the eldest brother of the Qin family said: "The great-ancestor's surname is Qin Yongshun, which was later given by the master when he was an apprentice, saying that the previous name was very big, called Bingcang, he was not in good health, and his master said that he couldn't suppress this name." ”

"But I remember Qi Yu, I can always remember that someone called this name."

Old Madam Qin smiled: "It's also Bing's generation? ”

The father and son of the Qin family all said that they didn't know, anyway, that's what they called.

Lord Qin asked a few details, the father and son of the Qin family answered selectively, and those who didn't know said that their great-grandfather had amnesia, and the old lady of Qin glanced at Lord Qin, and the two left the main hall under the pretext that they were going to look through the family tree, and the Cheng Daqi brothers and the Qin family father and son exchanged a look, tacitly.

In the back hall, Lord Qin said that he had to carefully check the family bloodline that could not be confused, and Mrs. Qin said: "Whether they are or not, they must be, anyway, their news is not complete, so they say that it is a side branch." ”

"Master, the family will not be able to open the pot, such a rich relative fell from the sky, what is there to hesitate, let me tell you, I will have these two hairpins on my head, we can only sell the house, how will this family walk in the capital at that time?"

"I can only move the whole family out of the capital, but what is the future of my children and grandchildren?"

"I don't care, this pro must be recognized."

Lord Qin was still a little hesitant, worried that the Shunyi Bofu and the Qin family's father and son were plotting against each other, but at this time, two middle-aged men walked in, and opened their mouths as soon as they entered the door, "Father, now that the Shunyi Bofu is in full swing, is there anything to covet from our family?" ”

They hurried back after getting the news, and in front of the sesame mung bean officials, the moon could only support themselves, and they couldn't see any oil and water, so they hoped that someone could pull them.

No matter how good the relationship is, it costs money to maintain it, after all, there is no lifelong friendship. (End of chapter)
