Chapter 16: The Burnt Willow Branch

Hanzhi's yard was still empty, uninhabited all the time, and it was overgrown with weeds, and Hanzhi's knees were high.

The cold was like smoke, and the people were shouting to help clean up.

Although the relationship between Hanzhi and his family is average, it has to be said that staying at home is much more comfortable than staying in the Hou Mansion.

The first is the diet, which is much better.

The servants in another mansion also have great respect for Hanzhi.

Unlike those old people in the Hou Mansion, they rely on the old and sell the old one by one, especially after Hanzhi is sick, he is not a nose to Hanzhi, and his eyes are not eyes.

Originally, Han Zhi also wanted the chief guard of the family to teach him martial arts, but he followed the eldest son Han Fugui out to do business.

Han Fugui's name was taken by Han's father, hoping that the other party would inherit his family business.

Han Min's name was chosen by Han's father with the help of a scholar, in order to have a name that looks like a cultural person, so that it is convenient to embark on a career in the future.

Han Ruyan's name was given by Mrs. Zheng, and his daughter's name, Han's father has never cared about it.

The name of the cold branch is taken from the branch of the tree, and some of the concubines are called Han Hua'er, Han Ye'er and other names.

After all, flower names such as peonies are the names of Qinglou women.

Qiuju Xialan, most of these are the names of the subordinates.

"Miss, we're finally home."

Qiu Ju looked at the newly renovated yard, and although it was a little different from three years ago, the general pattern was still similar.

Returning to the familiar and unfamiliar environment, Qiu Ju was only moved in her heart.

In the past, Qiu Ju felt that the master was very bad, but Qiu Ju now feels that no matter how bad the master is, he is not as vicious as the Hou Mansion's family.

There aren't that many rules in this house.

As soon as she returned here, Qiu Ju felt a lot more relaxed.

"Yes! We're finally home. ”

Hanzhi also sighed a little.

Although Father Han has a powerful eye, he is definitely much kinder than the old lady.

In any case, this courtyard has never been inhabited, which proves that Han's father definitely has a little affection for Hanzhi.

"yes, we're home."

Hanzhi smiled slightly, a hint of determination flashing in his eyes.

She knows that in this era, if she wants to live a good life, she must rely on herself.

And she will never let anyone bully her.

"Qiu Ju, you go and arrange it, I want to meet the housekeeper and learn about the situation at home."

Hanzhi commanded.

"Yes, miss."

Qiu Ju agreed, and went down to make arrangements.

Hanzhi sat on a chair, looked around, and secretly swore in his heart that he would set a small goal first and buy a small yard.

…………

Inside the Hou Mansion.

"Such a hot day! There's no ice at all, how can I eat this. ”

Gu Changpo knocked down a few plates of vegetables in front of him and said angrily.

The little guy next to him hurriedly went up to comfort him: "Young master, just bear with it!" When Madame comes back from her illness, she will be able to eat chicken legs, and then we will have ice. ”

"Why, I am the future master of the Hou Mansion, and I have not made a new dress for more than a month. It's just a lowly girl who can climb on my head. ”

Gu Changpo said angrily.

In the past, every time he went to school, he brought countless exquisite pastries that he could share with his classmates.

No matter how bad it is, the little maids and maids who follow around him will also eat some food.

And now, Gu Changpo, who is the master, has eaten like this.

Not to mention the maids and maids around him.

Gu Changpo angrily took the maid and the maid to find trouble with Aunt Liu, although Aunt Liu said that she was an aunt, but in fact she was a slave.

Gu Changpo is naturally not afraid.

He is only afraid of Han Zhi, Han Zhi disciplines him every day, or his mother, disrespectful to Han Zhi, that is, unfilial piety, this Gu Changpo is still clear, although he doesn't like it in his heart, but he doesn't dare to offend Han Zhi on the surface.

Gu Changpo has been enduring it for a long time, and Hanzhi was there before, so he endured it.

When Hanzhi is here, he can still eat a chicken leg.

As soon as Hanzhi left, he didn't even have a chicken leg, and the ice was gone, which was unbearable.

Now the food in the entire Hou Mansion has declined.

Even three years ago, I didn't eat so badly.

The polished rice at home, except for the old lady, Gu Changpo and willow branches, can be eaten, and everyone else can only eat brown rice.

It's very rough, and it cuts its throat, making it difficult to swallow.

In general, this rice is eaten only in civilian households.

People who are used to eating good rice are naturally not used to eating it for a while.

But there was no way, in order to let Gu Yunzhu marry beautifully, Liu Zhi tried his best to scrape together 10,000 taels of silver, and the mother and father of the family borrowed money from her.

So the food in this house is naturally very poor.

Liu Zhi used to think that if she could take care of the house, she would definitely be able to do better than Han Zhi.

Han Zhi married into the Hou Mansion with millions back then.

In just three years, it was squandered by the Hou Mansion, and the most valuable shop is now in the hands of the second master.

The second master is a very picky person, his sister-in-law got married, and he didn't pay a penny, but only gave a few boxes of rouge.

The second master took over the shop, and only gave the family 1,000 taels of silver every month.

This thousand taels can't maintain the old lady's luxurious life at all.

And now, the old lady actually forced the willow branch to empty the family.

Willow branches are naturally to be all kinds of frugality.

Willow Branch felt that this aunt was not as good as she thought.

Now Liu Zhi only hopes that Hanzhi can go back to her parents' house and get some money, otherwise, she will not be able to live this day, which is her biggest hope now.

It's just that Liu Zhi thought of the picture of Gui Mama taking someone to move things in Hanzhi's yard, and Liu Zhi put a question mark in his heart about whether Hanzhi was willing to come back.

Rao is her, and she also feels that the old lady is a little too much, it is nothing more than seeing that Hanzhi is not in good health, and it may have been abolished, so she deliberately did this, maybe she wanted to drive away Hanzhi.

I feel that Hanzhi has no money.

But Gu Yundian's shops are all cold.

The Hou Mansion looks so ugly, will anyone marry with a lot of dowry?

Willow Branch didn't understand what the old lady was thinking.

Fortunately, Gu Yundian is rich now and easy to talk to, and the people in his yard pay him himself, which saves another amount of expenses.

Stay up again, stay up until next month, Gu Yundian will give her money, and life will be better.

But it's really hot.

Liu Zhi frowned, and said to the maid beside him: "Why don't you fan, don't you know how hot it is now?" ”

In order to save money, Liu Zhi now only provides ice to the old lady, and she does not provide ice for herself.

"Auntie, I've been fanning for two hours, my hands are numb, and I really don't have the strength."

The maid said pitifully to the willow branch.

But this did not arouse the slightest sympathy on the part of Willow Branch.

Willow Branch was about to teach the maid a lesson, when the door was suddenly kicked open.

"What a majesty! It's only been a few days since he flew on the branches, and he began to abuse his subordinates. ”

Gu Changpo stood outside the door and sneered coldly at the willow branch.
