Chapter 48: The Key to the House

After the old man introduced his aunt to the door, he became very anxious. He had high hopes for the regent before, but it has been so long and he has not taken any action. It is expected that he is not willing to help. He has been in the store all day.

I couldn't concentrate on checking the accounts, thinking about what else I could do.

Finally, he sighed dejectedly, what else can he do? If the king wants his minister to die, he must die. This world belongs to the emperor, let alone a woman. Even if he wants all the Liu family's property, he can't say no.

.

"Master, what's wrong with you?" Mu Rentong, the store's general accountant, sighed when he saw him, so he couldn't help but ask.

The old man shook his head. He really couldn't talk about this matter casually. He could be beheaded if he was not careful. He said: "It's okay. I just think of things at home and am a little worried."

Mu Rentong said with relief: "There is no point in worrying. I believe that all of you, young masters, will be sensible in the future."

The old man forced a smile and said, "I hope so!" But he had never had such hope in his heart.

At this time, Liu An also came in. He was holding a pot of tea in his hand. He walked up to the old man in a decent manner and said: "Grandpa, I made a pot of tea. My fifth brother taught me how to make it. Grandpa, let me try it."

Okay?" Shoutou had shown his skills in the store before, and Liu An was very interested, so he asked Shoutou to teach him. Although Liu An was not very kind to Shoutou, he never made things difficult for Shoutou, and even sometimes asked Shoutou to teach him.

When Shou Tou was bullied, he would see it and help him, so Shou Tou had deep feelings for him. From Shou Tou's point of view, anyone who was not bullying him was a good person.

Liu An was already married to Yan Hui, the daughter of the governor of Lanzhou. Yan Hui was a lady of the family. She rarely left her yard and spent her days doing embroidery, needlework, or reading and writing. She was very popular with the old man.

Liu An is the son of the second young master Liu Bingyu. He was born by his wife. He is the second youngest in the Liu family. He is somewhat smart, but he is a child of affluence and does not understand the ways of the world. Compared with Liu Bingdi's eldest son Liu Qin,

It's a bit different. Liu Qin is a kind-hearted person. It can be said that in the Liu family, if there is anyone else who protects the longevity besides the old man, it is Liu Qin. However, Liu Qin is responsible for the affairs of the tea garden and rarely interferes with the affairs of the store.

I don’t go home very often, so I may or may not have the patron saint Shou Tou.

When the old man was upset at the moment, he felt even more sad when he heard Liu An said that Ye'er taught him how to brew the tea. It was rare to find someone for Ye'er, but he had to be taken away from him. This child would be the one who would be the best one in his life.

What a bitter life!

Liu An poured a glass and handed it to the old man, "Grandpa, would you like to try it?"

The old man took it, put it under his nose and smelled it. The fragrance of tea was fragrant, which immediately made people energetic. He put it on his lips and sipped it, and the warm tea liquid swirled along his tongue. When the fragrance of tea spreads, there was

The silky feeling went down from his throat, and he said, "Is it Chen Cha?"

"Yes, it was brewed with dew." Liu An couldn't help but feel happy when he saw that the old man admired it.

"Where did the dew come from?" the old man asked in astonishment.

"My fifth brother collected it. He said that brewing old tea with dew would make it much smoother. He gave his grandson a jar." Liu An replied.

Hearing this, the old man became even more sad. He had so many thoughts in his heart that he didn't know what to do. After a long time, he sighed and said: "An'er, if grandpa is no longer here in the future, you must cherish this brother and don't allow anyone to bully him.

." Long Yinle is afraid that he won't be able to keep him. What is imminent is not only Ye'er's future livelihood, but also the future of his big business. He is unwilling to separate the family unless he has to, but if he doesn't do it before he is born,

After the family separation, I'm afraid that after his death, these unfilial sons will fight to the death.

Liu An responded: "Yes, my grandson knows!"

The old man looked at him and had a lot to say, but in the end he couldn't say anything. First of all, even if he did say it, he might not understand it. Secondly, he might not have enough understanding to take on the big responsibility.

Just when the old man was at his wits' end, Shao Guohan, the bodyguard of the Prince Regent's palace, arrived.

The old man hurriedly ordered people out, leaving only Guo Han and him in the Zhang room.

Guo Han came to deliver a message. He said: "Your Majesty said that if you want the Emperor to give up his thoughts, the best way is to let everyone in the capital know that Long Yinle is the granddaughter-in-law of the Liu family. The Emperor is unpopular now. If he continues

If such an affair occurs, the people will be greatly disappointed in him, and the emperor will not take such a risk."

The old man's eyes lit up and he quickly asked for advice, "Excuse me, how should I inform the capital? You can't put up a notice, right? This is too deliberate, and it is suspected of resisting the decree."

Guo Han smiled and said, "The prince said that the old man himself will know what to do."

The old man thought for a while, but still couldn't think of a solution. Finally, he said: "Thank you, Guard Shao, and thank the prince on my behalf!"

"You're welcome, old man!" Guohan handed over his hand, "Then I'll take my leave now."

"Go slowly!" the old man said quickly.

After Shao Guohan left, the old man locked himself in the accounting room and thought for a long time. He thought about all the things that had happened since Yin Le entered the house, and thought about his unfilial descendants, and he let out a long sigh.

He is old, and he hopes that he has not misjudged the person. He makes dangerous moves for the sake of peace in the future. If it goes well, the Liu family still has hope. If it goes wrong, how bad can it be?

He called Liu An and said solemnly: "Tonight, inform everyone in your family that they must go home for dinner."

Liu An asked: "Grandpa, what happened?" He recognized the man just now. He was a guard of the Regent's Palace. He had met him twice before, but they didn't know each other.

The old man gave him a meaningful look and asked instead, "An'er, what do you think of your fifth brother's wife?"

Liu An was stunned, "Fifth younger brother and sister?"

"Well, what do you think of her?" the old man asked again.

Liu An thought for a moment and said, "She is very courageous. She also has a bad temper, but she has a good heart."

"Oh? Come and analyze it." The old man said with interest.

Liu An smiled and said, "Courageous, naturally means that she is not even afraid of grandpa and often contradicts him. As for her temper, my grandson really thinks that she has a bad temper. She doesn't like to talk to others and always has a straight face.

, to be honest, sometimes her grandson is afraid of her. As for saying that she has a good heart, it is natural to say that she is good to her fifth brother. Her grandson has seen her wiping his sweat several times, and his fifth brother has always been unpopular in the house.

, but although she occasionally scolded the fifth brother, she was sincerely good to him."

"Don't you think she was being nice to your brother in front of others on purpose? Maybe she was bullying your brother behind the scenes." The old man asked again.

Liu An smiled and said, "That's not true. What is falsehood and what is true love? My grandson will not understand. Besides, her love for the fifth brother is not the love between a man and a woman, but the love between a sister and a younger brother.

Cherish."

"That's enough. If her love lasts a lifetime, even if grandpa dies, he can die with peace of mind." The old man sighed. He is already over eighty this year. To put it bluntly, even if he has a life of ninety,

, there are still a few years left, and the years have gone by in the blink of an eye. He is not afraid of death, but he just can't worry about the people and things behind him.

Liu An was a little frightened, "It's so good, why did grandpa say such unlucky things?"

The old man remained silent and looked down at the keys on the table. This bunch of keys was the key to all the valuables in the store and home, as well as the key to the accounting room. It was the key to the Liu family.

He stretched out his hand and touched it gently, his mind already weighing it.
