Chapter 19 The special gift in the eyes of the uncle
Mrs. Yao did some calculations and found that although the money from the public house was given to Mr. Yao and the other houses were borrowed, she believed that everyone still had some private houses in their hands, just in case.
Who would be so stupid as to sacrifice themselves for others?
Even for herself, if the family is divided, she can still use her dowry to live with Uncle Yao and Yao Anxin. Although she is not as prosperous as before, she believes that with her ability, and Uncle Yao's five hundred household meals
Yi, their life will definitely not be too bad.
When it comes to the second house, Mr. Yao owes so much money, and Mrs. Yao's natal family is far away from the border. If this family gets a share, their life will be difficult.
But what can be done?
Not everyone can pay off the debt of one thousand taels of gold. Even if their eldest brother and his second wife support each other, they still won't be able to survive.
Instead of everyone being dragged into the water together, it would be better for them to break up and live in peace. At worst, when the old lady who followed them secretly financed the second wife, she would just turn a blind eye and pretend she didn't see it.
After all, Mr. Yao is also her husband's biological brother. He doesn't look at the monk's face or the Buddha's face. Even those two lovely nephews and nieces cannot be completely ignored by her.
…
Uncle Yao didn't know that for a while after he was called away by Gu Qingling, Mrs. Yao had already thought about dividing the family.
Let’s not talk about whether he agrees or not, it’s just his mother’s temperament. How can his mother leave Master Yao alone?
Beautiful thought.
Ever since he was young, his mother has never been partial, and the one who is partial is his second brother. One is his mother and the other is his brother. What can he do?
"Alas..." Uncle Yao sighed and stood outside the courtyard for a long time before slowly entering Gu Qingling's courtyard.
There was no way, who could have guessed what his mother was looking for when she came to him at this time?
In the final analysis, it is still for Mr. Yao.
However, the Yao family has been emptied by his mother. Uncle Yao doesn’t know what else his mother wants from him. His mother doesn’t think that he, the viscount, still has a “private house” hidden in his hands, right?
He really wanted to hide it, but the entire Yao family was in his mother's hands, so he couldn't hide it even if he wanted to.
"mother!"
Uncle Yao entered the door and bowed his head to Gu Qingling.
"Um!"
Gu Qingling nodded slightly and asked him to come and sit down.
After serving tea in the spring, the maid quietly stood at the door to let out some air. This was because Gu Qingling had told her that she had "important matters" to talk to Uncle Yao today and she couldn't let anyone hear.
After all, she was a maid trained by the Yao family. In spring, her temperature control was very good. Uncle Yao held the teacup and could feel the perfect temperature and the fragrance of tea wafting out of the teacup.
He could even be distracted and admire the pattern on the teacup. Although it was an old item, it was absolutely exquisite and high-quality. It should be a high-quality product from the capital.
Not even his biological son has such things. Only Old Taijun has everything here and always uses the best things from the Yao family.
"How many connections do you have in Yunyang City?" Gu Qingling asked straight to the point.
Opposite me, Uncle Yao was stunned for a moment, because he didn't expect that what his mother asked about was not money, but this.
"Mom, why are you asking this?" Uncle Yao asked.
"Originally, I, an old woman, should not be involved in the affairs of the men outside, but have you ever thought about it," Gu Qingling looked into his eyes and said, "We have only been in Yunyang City for a long time, why were we so quickly taken care of?"
Targeted?"
"Target?"
"You know what your second brother's temperament is like. No matter how unreliable he is, do you think he is someone who would go to a gambling house on a whim?"
Uncle Yao originally wanted to say that his mother was partial and still spoke for his second brother like this at a time like this, but after thinking about it for a moment, he felt that what his mother said made sense: Yes, although the second brother is a little unreliable, Liuniao
Fighting crickets, but gambling...
"Your second brother also said that someone took him there, but when something happened to him, where was this person?"
Uncle Yao: "..." He really didn't pay attention to this.
"After I came to Yunyang City, I was in poor health, and my control over your second brother was also loosened. We don't know who he met outside and who he interacted with outside. Let's ask him himself.
, he himself is confused and doesn’t know anything.” Gu Qingling said, “As a result, something happened now, and we were in a hurry. When we looked back at the clues, we didn’t have any clues at all. That’s why I thought of you. No matter what,
You are also the eldest son of Yao, and you have the title of Viscount. You have some connections in Yunyang City. You should be able to help investigate what is going on, right?"
Uncle Yao was a little dumbfounded, because he suddenly discovered that he seemed to have none of the "connections" and "inquiries" his mother mentioned.
There was a bit of embarrassment on his face, and he didn't know how to explain it to his mother: "I'm sorry, mother, since I came to Yunyang City, I only focused on drinking tea and chatting with people. I really haven't paid attention to this 'connection' thing.
.”
Gu Qingling naturally saw the look on Uncle Yao's face, but pretended not to see it, smiled and patted the back of his hand, and continued: "I'm embarrassing you. I also know that I only found out about this matter today. I asked you so quickly.
If you need clues, you probably don’t have any clues. Let’s do this, I’ll give you one night, plus tomorrow morning, you can investigate slowly. When it gets dark tomorrow, you should know what’s going on..."
Uncle Yao was ashamed and ashamed. He was very lucky that his mother didn't notice, otherwise he would really be embarrassed to see others.
Just like what his mother said, he is the head of the Yao family, and something happened in the family. He, the person in charge, has no "clue" at all like the woman in the backyard?!
Holy shit!
Is he still the master?
Several people he knew flashed through Uncle Yao's mind. No matter what, he must find a way to invite them out, find out some clues, and give his mother an explanation, otherwise he will be serving as the "Viscount" for nothing.
Account banned.
"Alas..." Gu Qingling sighed, "As the saying goes, a penny can stump a hero. Your second brother used all the Yao family's money to repay the money, but you, the master, don't have a single copper.
It is indeed a bit difficult for you to ask you to do things. Well, mother has been free recently and figured out some gadgets with a few maids. You can give them away and your face will look better..."
As she spoke, she stood up, took a box from the dressing table, and handed it to Uncle Yao.
"Here are things used to cleanse hands. The name is 'Twelve Flower Immortals', and they use twelve kinds of flower scents. During the meal, you send someone to deliver it to your friend's house, saying it is a rare thing.
, my family members love me very much. You also thought it was very good when you used it, so I thought of my brothers. Since it is a good thing, I want to share it as a way of thanking you for taking care of me for many days..."
Listening to what Gu Qingling said, Uncle Yao was a little confused: Mom, are you sure that giving a hand-washing gadget to others won't cost you a share?
Moreover, it is also a critical moment for him to "ask" people to do things.
