Chapter 114: The tree falls and the money scatters

The four-entry main house of the Xu family in the northeast of Taipingli has always been a sign that the Xu family has stood firm. It seems to be the blessing of the ancestors. The eldest house has encountered several disasters of almost collapse, but every time it has been tenacious and has become more prosperous afterwards. Therefore, for a long time, everyone said that it was because of the good feng shui of this old house. However, this time, no one dared to expect that one-in-one possibility.

First, Xu Tiao hinted at the three and four bedrooms who were changing their ways and many other tribesmen who were other tribesmen who were fighting against the second house, and said that Master Xu had been hanged in the second house. Now that Zhao Qin has been hanged according to the law, Master Xu should also give up the position of the clan leader. Then Xu Tiao sent someone to the front, but he didn't know how to use the method to get the two servants who were sent to the village back. The crime of arson made Master Xu even more anxious. Then, Commander Zhu, the Nancheng Military and Masjid, who had been following the eldest house, not only did he withdraw his shares without saying a word, but also found a missing case of a street gangster several months ago. For a moment, the whole house was in chaos, and the servants who were living contracts on their bodies began to make trouble to change their homes, and the dead contracts were even more anxious.

At this moment, outside the upper room, there were two servants who were the most trusted by the masters. Mr. Xu and Xu Dong and Xu Jin who were sitting in the Ming Dynasty had not said a word for a long time. I don’t know how long the unspeakable silence lasted. In the end, Xu Jin finally couldn’t bear it and stood up suddenly.

"What are you doing so dejected? I don't believe that Xu Xun can cover up the sky with one hand! At worst, I will take the charge of setting fire at the yamen. He can't even kill me to vent my anger!"

"Sit down!" Mrs. Xu slammed the soft couch under her, and then shouted sternly, "It's not your turn to take the blame. There are so many people in the family, how can you find someone who takes the blame?" She said as she looked at her husband and eldest son, and showed unconcealed toughness on her face. "Master, move, everything is up to this point. Choose a good one from the childbirth at home, and allow him to spend hundreds of taels of silver and let him go to the yamen to accept the matter himself!"

"You are so light!" Master Xu has been timid in front of his wife for the past few years, but this time he has been very proud of it. "What do you think arson is a crime? The law can be found clearly. If the fire is set on fire, it will be beheaded. Although the two servants who were taken by Lao Liu were not captured at the arson, they may all be confessed in the yamen. Who dares to take such a crime? Who dares to joke with his own life!"

Mrs. Xu had never been scolded by her husband like this, and she was immediately annoyed: "I don't believe that even a thousand taels of white silver can't buy one who is willing to bear the death penalty!"

"Mom, it's not something that others are willing to refuse to take over now, but everyone is trying to take advantage of our jokes. We will definitely not give us such a chance!" Xu Dong endured his mother's bias for many years, and finally couldn't help it. "Mr. Zhao is dead, but Xu Xun has been a guest on the mansion of Eunuch Fu and Duke Wei in the past few days. What did he say before? Lord Ye of the Jinyiwei? He is in a glory and even Uncle Six has to laugh with him. At this time, everyone is hiding from us but it's too late..."

"Master, it's not good!"

Before he could finish his words, a panic sound came from outside. Master Xu was so righteous that he was not angry. He immediately got up and opened the door. Seeing that the manager in an outer courtyard was crying, he immediately asked sternly. Then, the manager almost didn't quit his anger after saying that the manager said.

"The gangsters who had been with the Seventh Master in the past identified a corpse in the Xijiao Hua site as Ding Shuncai. I don't know why they left the notes written by the person I sent there. The people from the Nancheng Military and Ma Si said... they said they were his wife's accompanying Fang Wu'an..."

Master Xu almost relied on Xu Dong's support and then he barely stood firm. After a while, he asked hoarsely: "Where is that person?"

"Wuan just happened to get too much drunk in the gatehouse. Mr. Jiang from the Nancheng Military Office took the man away..."

At this moment, Master Xu almost lost the strength to speak. He waved his hand and sent him away. He turned around and entered the room without saying a word. Seeing Mrs. Xu sitting on the soft couch in the middle dodge and dodge directly into his gaze, he was extremely angry and couldn't help but curse: "Bitch, you did a good thing!"

Mrs. Xu was already a little ashamed because of the incident, but at this time, Master Xu was so angry that she couldn't help but feel embarrassed. She ignored her own fifties and went up to look at Master Xu's face: "Bitch? If I hadn't been doing housework for you for so many years, if I hadn't increased the income and reduced expenses for you, the Xu family's house would have collapsed long ago! I've done so much, but it's not for my son, for you, now if something goes wrong, you blame me. When you were enjoying your life, you forgot? You were not fond of you and flattered Zhao Qin, but you didn't get the benefits but got into a mess. You still have the face to blame me, I'll fight with you!"

Seeing that his mother had started fighting with his father regardless of dignity, Xu Dong was immediately panicked and had to come forward to help pull him apart. Even Xu Jin joined in. After finally letting Mrs. Xu open his wife and pressing him on the soft couch, there were several deep scratches on Master Xu's face. Master Xu was in a mess and stared at his wife who was still a little hysterical. After a long time, he suddenly left without saying a word. As soon as he went out, Mrs. Xu pulled Xu Jin and cried loudly. Xu Dong was not trying to persuade him or not, so he simply went out to chase his father. After chasing him, he chased him to the study.

Before he could persuade him, Master Xu tricked on the bookshelf twice, opened a secret lattice and picked up a box, stuffed it into Xu Dong's hand, and said lightly: "This is something I saved from your mother for many years. It is a total of 100 acres of land and 1,000 taels of silver, but it is all clean. Your sixth uncle was suppressed by me in the clan for many years. Now that you are proud, you borrowed Xu Xun's east wind. If you don't drive me off from the position of patriarch, you will never give up. You have the idea of ​​your mother and your brother doing such a stupid thing again. Now, you can go to the capital!"

Xu Dong has secretly complained that his father had put all the bets on Zhao Qin these days, but at this moment, he felt like he was hit hard by a hammer in his heart, and felt deeply saddened. After blurting out his father, he couldn't say anything.

Master Xu nodded to the eldest son with considerate understanding, then sighed and said, "You are a student, no more famous than your younger brother, and you have a pure reputation. You can rely on these things to try to join an adult in the capital. As for your wife and children, staying at home, you will never be able to affect them. Whether our eldest family can have a day of turning over depends on you! After packing up your things, leave today, don't delay!"

"But……"

"No, but, can you be angry to death!"

Seeing his father's determination, Xu Dong took a deep breath and agreed with red eyes. Seeing that he had left, Master Xu fell to the chair with a grim face and his eyes were dull. There was no such thing as trying to force himself to be energetic in front of his son. He had no way in the capital. Although Xu Dong was still smart, he could really make a name for himself just by relying on these things. He just wanted to leave a lineage for the eldest house to prevent the worst situation. It should be noted that when Zhao Qin fell, the reputation of the eldest house was completely ruined with Xu Xun's high-sounding words in front of the Yingtian Prefecture.

"Xu Xiaoqi, you are indeed not the son of the second child! The second child is as kind and generous as you, how could he be as cruel and ruthless as you!"

As soon as Zhao Qin died, Xu Xun's days were not much different. It was not suitable for travel in midsummer, so the day he set off was set at the end of June. So, he secretly took Xu Liang to the Fusheng Mi Tour on Sanshan Street from three to five days to tease the little girl to relax. He met with Wang Shikun with the famous playboys in Jinling City. With his understanding and some former nature, all kinds of fun became more familiar. He occasionally accompanied Fu Rong to the villa outside the city to escape the summer heat, and deal with Fu Heng'an who was too enthusiastic but unchanging. In addition, the problem of levying was finally solved, and Wu Shouzheng, who even got a big business with Fu Rong nodded, thanked him very much. He asked Chen Lu for the long house again, and then ignored it, until Xu Tiao came to the door this day.

"This is……"

As soon as the small box on the table opened, Xu Xun saw several pieces of paper rolled together and five ingots of yellow gold inside. At this time, Xu Tiao said with a smile: "This is the compensation for Xu Liang's burned house. Five ingots of gold totaled fifty taels, almost 500 taels of silver, and the rest is a hundred acres of land."

Although Xu Xun instructed Xu Tiao to blackmail the eldest son's house, he never expected that there would be so many. At this moment, he was also shocked when he saw Xu Liang beside him. He couldn't help but sigh that the fox pretended to be a tiger's power was indeed useful, and he did not feel sorry for it at all.

Chen Lu attributed most of his promotion to saying good things to Ye Guang for several days. The whereabouts of the little Dingzi were completely investigated. He knew that Mrs. Xu, the eldest wife of the eldest wife, got drunk because she was afraid of blackmail, poisoned the person and sent her confidant to the Huanyuan. Chen Lu asked the Jinyiwei to get evidence, and naturally suggested that the Nancheng Military Police be investigated to the end.

Whether it’s all evil or the roots, it’s what the family deserves!

Seeing Xu Xun closed the lid, Xu Tiao walked to Xu Liang with his arms, and he was so surprised that he was so surprised, but his face was not revealed at all. He just smiled and said, "I am busy with affairs in the government office, so this time it is the fourth brother who became the patriarch. He was very angry about the matter of the eldest brother and said that he wanted to let his eldest brother get off the vicious sister-in-law, but the eldest sister-in-law spent a lot of ways to throw in countless money in the yamen, and it was all that Wu An overheard. Xu Jin was young and ignorant after all, and the two servants on his lower back were on fire, so he was sentenced to eighty-year-old. Now the eldest brother is seriously injured, look..."

"It's the government's decision, what does it have to do with me?"

Seeing Xu Xun's answer casually, Xu Tiao knew that the time should be almost the same, and he breathed a sigh of relief, but said, "This is really a misfortune for the Xu family. Fortunately, the court praised your kindness before, and finally got his face back. Almost all the servants in the long house have run away in the past two days, and it is the disaster of their usual poor family style..."

The trees fall and the money scatters are scattered, but this is the case!
Chapter completed!
