"Hmm. Ye Yunshu nodded.

chatted with Tang Wushuang for a while, and when it was almost Shen, the sky was getting dark, Tang Wushuang returned to the house, and Ye Yunshu's family also packed up their things and went back to Taoshui Village.

Along the way, Ye Yunshu kept wanting to ask Xiao Mingting, but it was not suitable, until he returned home, and then pulled Xiao Mingting into the courtyard to talk.

"These two children don't know what to say, they are mysterious. Chen Yunniang said as she pursed her lips and smiled.

Ye Zhengwen glanced at it, hmm...... It's not too far away.

"Let them go. ”

Ye Yunshu found two stools and sat down with Xiao Mingting.

"You said before that Xiao Minglei's fiancée jumped into the river and died, and she had a child in her womb, are you sure of this? Wushuang told me that Xiao Minglei denied that the child was his, and the Xiao clan said that she was inappropriate. ”

Xiao Mingting sneered, "Aren't they all the final say? ”

Xiao Mingting knows the Xiao clan too well, and they can easily do this kind of thing that reverses black and white.

"Then I have to remind Wushuang. ”

"Hmm. ”

Ye Yunshu saw Xiao Mingting's cold expression, so he said worriedly: "Wushuang told me today that Xiao Minglei also came to Tongchuan County, does it have any impact on you? Do you want to stay at home in the future?"

Xiao Mingting was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then shook his head, "There's no need, besides, I will go to the county school next year, and I go to the county every day, I don't know when I can meet him." ”

Ye Yunshu nodded, pursed his lips and looked at Xiao Mingting, wanting to speak again.

"What do you want to ask?"

After getting along with Ye Yunshu for a long time, Xiao Mingting could already know what she wanted to do from her expression.

"How did you leave Kuizhou in the first place?"

Ye Yunshu didn't know if this was Xiao Mingting's bottom line, so he was a little apprehensive when he asked.

When Xiao Mingting heard this, his face sank, he was not angry, nor disgusted, but gloomy, just like when they met for the first time, with an aura of indifference and alienation all over his body.

Ye Yunshu felt a little reckless, "If it's inconvenient, just because I didn't ask." ”

"It's not. Xiao Mingting shook his head, was silent for a long time, and let out a long breath, "There is nothing that can't be said." ”

"When my parents died, I lived with my uncle, and the family's property was embezzled by the clan, but my uncle treated me well, and I planned to live in my uncle's house like this. ”

Ye Yunshu blurted out, "Then why did you have to leave again?"

"You know a lot. ”

Ye Yunshu smiled awkwardly, "It was Wushuang who said it today." ”

Xiao Mingting didn't care about it, and continued: "I thought that my uncle's family treated me sincerely, but who would have thought that they were just hypocritical, and they also set a family affair for me. ”

At that time, he even thought about moving his household registration to his uncle's family, whose family was also a farmer, so that he could continue to study and take back his father's family business, but later learned that his uncle's family was hypocritical, and he and those who came to take the family property were actually in cahoots.

"Are you married?" Ye Yunshu opened his mouth wide, and the first reaction in his mind turned out to be the crime of bigamy.

"Nope. Xiao Mingting smiled, sad and joyful, "The day after I learned the news, I added croton to the soup and escaped with something." ”

Xiao Mingting recalled the night before he fled, he had insomnia that night, remembered the death of his parents and the seizure of his family property, and felt resentful in his heart, so he wanted to go to the main courtyard for a turn, and at this time the main courtyard was already occupied by his uncle and aunt.

Xiao Mingting didn't want to disturb them, so he quietly came to the main courtyard, and when he entered the door, he saw the plane tree planted by his father.

The night in August was still hot and humid, Xiao Cunli and his wife Zhao Xu couldn't sleep, so they took the fruit bowl to the yard to cool off.

There was a stone table and four stone benches under the plane tree, the moon was bright, the courtyard was bright, and he and Zhao sat down on the stone bench.

Zhao Shi fanned the fan and complained: "Let's go to the ice cellar tomorrow and get some ice out, it's hot and dead." ”

"Where can I get it moving? Xiao Cunli took a bite of the watermelon, "There are dozens of catties of ice bricks in the ice cellar, and it is very cold, I am afraid that before I move out, people will freeze." ”

"Who told you to send everyone away? Zhao rolled his eyes, "Just a few of us live in such a big house, I feel panicked at night." ”

"Isn't this no way?" Xiao Cunli spit out the watermelon seeds, "I still won this house from the patriarch." ”

Speaking of this, Zhao felt angry, "You are the eldest brother's own brother, those fields, silver and shops should all be yours!

"Do you think I'm willing?" Xiao Cunli twisted his eyebrows, "Can our arm be twisted past other people's thighs? Don't you see what that kid in Ming Ting has been beaten into? It's still difficult to walk now! You still want to fight? It would be good to be able to land a house! We have no power or power, and people can pinch us to death casually." ”

"Cut. Zhao Shinu mouthed, with a look of disdain, "Isn't there a son-in-law who is Sima? ”

"We'll talk about that later. Xiao Cunli doesn't seem to have any hope for high school, "At present, Minglang needs silver to study, and Mingyao's dowry has to be prepared, and there is a lot of money to spend." ”

"What are you afraid of?" Zhao didn't care, raised his hand and pointed to the yard, "This yard is full of things, and you're afraid that you won't be able to support our family?"

"How much do you think it can be worth? Those bottles of calligraphy and painting have already been snatched away. Xiao Cunli pouted, "If you use it like this, I'm afraid that if you can't wait for Minglang High School, this family will be defeated." ”

After the death of the eldest brother and sister-in-law, the people in the clan came to the door to fight the autumn breeze, what to pay for the funeral, the fee for the ancestral grave in the clan, and all kinds of excuses to move all the valuable objects in the house.

Xiao Cunren is a businessman, and he is already inferior, even if he has donated money to build bridges and pave roads for the clan over the years, he has not let the patriarch give him a good face, but thinks that this is deserved.

Although the Xiao family does not have the "Clan Chronicles", the ancestors still have high-ranking officials, and the clan is also passed down to the world, Xiao Cunren has entered the business register, and the patriarch of the Xiao clan has long wanted to remove him, but there is no benefit to take it except for the clan, and he has been keeping it like this in a struggle.

Now he is also taking advantage of this reason to embezzle Xiao Cunren's family business together with several big families in the clan.

As for the house, the right to stay was to appease Xiao Cunli and prevent him from making trouble.

There are countless cases of Daqi embezzling family property like this, especially some wealthy families, who eat and wipe clean, cut grass and eradicate roots, so Xiao Cunli didn't dare to make trouble at all, and even secretly rejoiced that he could leave the house.

The horse's dead skin is shiny, so there is still a leather surface, isn't it?

"What do you mean I'm defeated?" Zhao was unhappy, "I'm not thinking about my family, Second Master Xiao, I don't believe you can live this kind of life." ”

Xiao Cunli was silent, he really couldn't get by, he had been relying on his eldest brother to support him all these years, he was used to being the second master, and he was used to reaching out for food to open his mouth, and he was really not used to it if he didn't have anyone to call him in the past two days.

"What can I do? Xiao Cunli said angrily, "You can't let me go out to find a job." ”

Let him go out and do work for others in a low voice? Or hoe the ground with his back to the loess facing the sky? It is impossible!

"No one would dare to use it like you. Zhao said, then lay on the stone table with both hands, and looked at Xiao Cunli with a smile, "I have a good idea." ”

"What's the idea?"
