Yu's father was quite worried that his daughter would have to face the Jiang family who could even harm his own son. While having breakfast, he suggested: "Lin'an, Xinlan has to come with me to look at the account books in the morning. In order to arrange the wedding, I fell behind."
There are a lot of things to do, and I can’t handle them all by myself, so let her accompany me first.”
Hu Linan glanced at Chu Yunli: "This... Xinlan said she wants to go back with me."
With such high interest, it seemed that I had to go.
Father Yu looked disapproving: "Xinlan, don't go."
Chu Yunli smiled: "Dad, don't worry. I met my mother-in-law yesterday. She is a very interesting person. An ugly daughter-in-law always has to see her parents-in-law. I can't hide away all my life. Besides, Lin'an will protect me."
of."
Yu's father's thoughts were exposed, and he was a little annoyed: "I have no conscience, who am I doing this for?"
Before the couple left, he worriedly warned him again: "If they say they want to set rules for you, you can go back directly to the house. We are recruiting children, not getting married, so there is no need to be wronged like a little daughter-in-law."
When his daughter wanted to speak, he was the first to ask: "Who was the person who suffered so many wrongs in the Luo family for so many years?"
Chu Yunli almost choked and explained: "At that time, I didn't have a rich father like you! You gave me all my confidence!"
After hearing this, Father Yu was finally a little happy: "Then go and come back quickly. You don't have to go to the shop. Since we are newlyweds, let's have a good rest for a few days."
Hu Linan: "..." Who was busy in the store just now?
The couple got on the carriage, talking and laughing all the way, and the atmosphere was harmonious.
When we arrived at Hu Mansion, it was still early, and the steward was already waiting at the door. When he saw the carriage approaching, he hurriedly stepped forward: "Sir, the master and his wife are already waiting."
Hearing this title, Chu Yunli frowned and looked at the man beside him out of the corner of his eye. As expected, he was also unhappy when he saw Hu Linan.
That was not Hu Liuqing's home at all. He was once just a steward under Master Hu. What kind of master was he?
The two of them entered the gate, and there were servants everywhere. They looked quite well-behaved. At first glance, they were not much worse than the Yu Mansion.
People were greeting them all the way, and when they entered the main courtyard, the couple were already at the top. There was a mother-in-law holding a tea tray beside them, just waiting for them to come forward to greet them and offer them tea.
Hu Linan stepped forward first, and the mother-in-law immediately brought the tea tray. He did not reach out to take it. After walking around the room, he seemed not to find what he wanted. He frowned and asked: "It's a good thing for me to get married, why didn't I take it with my father?"
Please come out for the tablet?" He turned his head and told the steward: "Hurry up and ask for it, don't miss it in time."
The steward froze on the spot and quietly looked at Hu Liuqing's expression.
Hu Liuqing originally had a smile on his face, but after hearing this, his face suddenly became serious, and he reached out and slapped the table in displeasure, about to have a seizure.
Mrs. Jiang hurriedly pressed the back of his hand and said with a smile: "Today is a big day, don't be upset. Why are you fussing with the child?" Then she turned to look at the newlyweds in front of her and said disapprovingly: "Lin'an, please
Your father's ranking is correct. But your sixth uncle has treated you almost like a biological son over the years, so you should offer him a cup of tea."
"He's not worthy." Hu Lin'an stood with his hands behind his hands and looked at the woman in front of him coldly: "Mom, my health improved because I went out. I haven't lived in the house these days. I've been running around and haven't been able to take good care of myself.
After resting, my body did not get worse, but became healthier and healthier. The reason for this
, I think that even if you don't know the inside story, you should have guessed something. Furthermore, outsiders don't know what is going on between you and Hu Liuqing, but you know it in your heart. I called him uncle before, but that was because I was ignorant.
Now that I have grown up, I will never consider a thief as my father!"
Hu Liuqing could no longer suppress his anger and slapped the table hard: "Hu Lin'an!"
Hu Linan was also annoyed. He kicked the table next to him, causing the cups and dishes on the table to scatter all over the floor. Not only that, he picked up a chair and threw it at Hu Liuqing, then stopped.
Make a gentle gesture with your hands: "It's just a tantrum, I can do it too."
Hu Liuqing narrowed his eyes: "Your mother and I have been married for many years, and we have given birth to younger brothers and sisters for you. Even if you don't recognize me as your biological father, I can at least be regarded as half of your elders, right? Let me drink you a cup of tea and feel sorry for you.
Is it done?"
Hu Lin'an slapped his forehead: "If I didn't mention this, I would have forgotten it. They say that this man should start a career when he gets married. It is actually inappropriate for you to be dependent on someone else's family with your wife at your age." He stepped forward two times.
Bu: "I wasn't in good health before, so I didn't care about it with you. Now that I'm married, I don't need anyone to take care of me. You two... better move out as soon as possible!"
Hu Liuqing never thought about moving away.
Jiang was also shocked by these words: "Lin'an, what are you talking about?" She glanced at Chu Yunli: "What on earth are the Yu family's father and daughter mumbling in your ears?"
This was not pleasant to hear. Chu Yunli was unhappy and said: "I didn't say anything. In fact, you are Lin'an's biological mother, so it is appropriate to live here. But... who is he? He was just a person before.
You are willing to give in, but don't wrong the serious master of the Hu family."
Jiang was furious: "Yu Xinlan, get out of here."
Chu Yunli picked her ears: "Before today, you could indeed tell me to get out. But Lin'an and I are already husband and wife. This is his family's ancestral property. As long as he doesn't divorce me, no one can let me leave. Including you!"
Mrs. Jiang sneered: "Originally I thought your marriage was inappropriate, but now that we are married, I won't say much. I also wanted to give you face on the big day. Since you don't need it, you should have said it earlier." She said.
He waved his hand and said: "Lin'an married into someone else's house, so he is already a member of someone else's family, and cannot be considered the owner of this house. You go away, and don't come to the house again in the future."
She looked at Hu Lin'an with a disappointed look on her face: "You are so weak. If your uncle and I hadn't bothered to find a doctor to treat you, you would have died a long time ago. As a result, you gave us such a big gift after you recovered.
Lin'an, you really disappoint me, from now on I will just pretend that I have never given birth to you..."
Hu Linan interrupted her: "Are you going to break off your relationship with me?"
"Yes!" Mrs. Jiang solemnly said: "I remarried, but there is no law that prohibits women from remarrying. When your father was seriously ill, I personally took care of him for so long, and then remarried after he left. I think I
I deserve him. And you are sick.
Over the years, I have spent a lot of money, but I have never complained. I even went to several prefectures to hire doctors for you... If you are so ungrateful, why should I keep you? From now on, you will only be a family member.
It’s just that I don’t have a biological mother!”
Hu Lin'an looked at the man on the other side: "You've wanted to see me kicked out for a long time, right?"
Hu Liuqing didn't look at him at all: "Anyway, I have a clear conscience."
Hu Lin'an clasped his hands together: "What a clear conscience!" He smiled half-heartedly: "Since you are unwilling to move away, then I can only take action to get back what belongs to me personally. Come, hand the petition paper to the Yamen, and take it with you.
Liangkang and his two brothers will also be sent."
Liang Kang and Liang Kang were followers who had served Hu Linan for many years.
Hu Liuqing's expression changed. Jiang frowned and asked, "Are you going to bring the matter to the Yamen?"
"Yes, the Liangkang brothers have drugged me for so many years. I have to ask for justice myself." Hu Lin'an looked at the two of them: "No one who has harmed me can even think of escaping."
Jiang subconsciously looked at the person next to her.
Hu Liuqing was still calm: "Do you think I harmed you?"
"Whether it's harmful or not, you can decide for yourself!" Hu Lin'an smiled half-heartedly: "Come to think of it, you went from being a down-and-out son of the Hu family to becoming Mr. Hu, whom everyone respects. Your life is indeed good. But it's unjust.
If you take too much wealth, retribution will come."
Hu Liuqing emphasized: "Everything I own is earned by myself. I didn't steal it from your father. Don't get me wrong."
Hu Lin'an shook his head: "I didn't misunderstand! I just feel that my Hu family has declined too quickly. A few years ago, I was not in good health and I didn't read the account books. I just happened to ask someone to help me check it. I heard that your Excellency has some
There are several masters who are very capable and good at settling accounts..."
Hu Liuqing's hand on the chair clenched instantly, and he turned to look at Jiang.
In the previous years, Hu Linan had been a sick man, lying on the bed dying. The huge Hu family was like a doll that could be squeezed and crushed in the hands of the couple. They did not think that anyone would come to check the accounts, and things were not done well.
Not secretive.
Let alone an adult, anyone who knows how to read a ledger will see some clues.
They can't make a big fuss, otherwise they will be doomed as a couple.
If they and their husbands were in trouble, their children would not be able to die well. Thinking of this, Ms. Jiang's face turned pale as paper. She looked at her son in front of her and felt that it was particularly strange: "Lin'an, don't be impulsive. Let's let go first.
When they come back, we are a family and it’s easy to discuss anything.”
As soon as these words came out, they almost admitted that the couple had touched the Hu family's property. Jiang was a little embarrassed and explained: "Uncle Li Liu did not take anything in vain, but I gave him the capital to do business back then. This
The matter cannot withstand careful investigation... I am your mother, if you send your own mother to prison, will your reputation still be respected?"
She glanced at Chu Yunli again. Although she didn't want to admit that Yu Xinlan could affect her son's mood and that she was closer to her son than her own mother, she could only say: "If you don't think about yourself, you have to think about it."
For Xinlan’s sake.”
Hu Linan nodded: "Then when will you move out?"
Hu Liuqing's face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Soon."
"Let's go now." Hu Lin'an stretched out his hand: "I don't want to see you again. I'm going to serve tea to my father later. It's a good thing that I can start a family. I have to make him happy, and I don't want you to show up.
In front of him, ruin his mood again."
Hu Liuqing: "..."
He stood up suddenly: "Come here, go pack your things."
Hu Linan immediately said: "Don't deal with it, otherwise, I will have to ask Liangkang and the others to go to the Yamen."
The two of them poisoned Hu Lin'an, and it was Hu Liuqing's instigation, and the drugs were given by people close to Hu Liuqing. If he really went to court, and Hu Liuqing's crude account books, it would be a daydream for him to escape.
He was unwilling to let Hu Liuqing leave like this. He glared at the young man in front of him and clenched his teeth with hatred.
Hu Linan raised his eyebrows: "Do you regret not killing me back then?"
This was what Hu Liuqing had in mind. The reason why he had to send him away was because it was useless. Firstly, Yu's father often sent people to visit him, and he could not guarantee that he could finish things cleanly... What if he was killed by Yu's father?
After discovering the clues, it was difficult for him to escape. Moreover, Chiang had some mother-son affection for his son and was unwilling to do such a vicious thing. That's why the matter was delayed again and again.
If he had known that Hu Linan still had the power to turn around, he would never have been so merciful.
Hu Liuqing was filled with hatred, and said gently on his face: "You misunderstood, I didn't intend to do anything to you."
That gentleness was just an act, but the hatred in his heart was real. His face was not natural at all, and he looked a little ferocious.
Jiang was unwilling to move away and wanted to fight for it. Hu Liuqing held her hand and said, "Let's go!"
It is said that the cunning rabbit has three caves. Although he has lived in Hu Mansion these years, he has never felt that it is his own home. The reason why he has not moved out is because the lintel of Hu Mansion is luxurious, and secondly, he just wants his father Hu to die.
Watching him and Mr. Jiang falling in love with each other.
The two quickly disappeared with a pair of children.
There was no affection between the siblings and Hu Lin'an, and they didn't even look back when they left.
As soon as a few people left, the house was not empty. There were servants everywhere. Hu Lin'an waved his hand: "Go find the middleman and sell all the servants."
He wants to buy new people in.
The servants were shocked. They thought their life would be easier after Hu Linan got married. They were happy after receiving the reward yesterday. But it only took one night to give them such a big shock.
If you are sold to a middle-aged man, you may not be able to find a good home. There are some servants who are close to Hu Liuqing who are not afraid at all. As soon as they leave the house, they will go to the house over there.
Yes, Hu Liuqing has privately purchased a house, and there are more than one. There is also Zhuangzi in the suburbs. Remembering that no one lives in those places, not many people are needed. Now that the couple lives there with their children, they must need people to take care of them.
If you go early, you can still get a good spot.
But most of the servants were unwilling to change their owners, but Hu Linan didn't care about the thoughts of these servants. When the original owner was killed in the mansion, no one helped him. Of course, you can't force people to help.
.But these people watched Hu Linan fall ill and die indifferently. In this case, why was he being polite?
After half an hour, the house was completely empty.
In the evening of that day, Hu Linan's new people arrived, and the huge mansion was filled again. At first glance, it seemed that it had not changed. But everyone knew that Hu's mansion had changed!
Rumors spread quickly about Hu Linan's expulsion of his mother from his family's residence after getting married.
There was a lot of discussion about this, and many people believed that no matter what Jiang did, she was Hu Lin'an's biological mother, and he should not treat his mother like this.
Hu Linan turned around and sent the Liang Kang brothers to the Yamen, handing over the warrant papers as well.
As soon as this incident came out, there was an uproar.
Jiang immediately couldn't sit still and ran outside the Yu Mansion to see his son.
At that time, Hu Lin'an was not there. He suspected that there was something fishy about Hu's father's death, so he went to find the old servant... It was difficult to find him after so many years. After finally getting the news, he rushed over immediately.
.
Jiang was circling anxiously at the door, but Chu Yunli didn't want to invite her in, so she simply walked out.
Seeing her cheap daughter-in-law, Mrs. Jiang had a complicated look on her face. She didn't like Yu Xinlan, but she couldn't be willful at the moment. She hurried forward and squeezed out a smile: "Xinlan, I want to see Lin'an!"
Chu Yunli said casually: "He's not here. News came just now that Uncle Fu was found. He went to see him in person."
Jiang blurted out: "Impossible! Uncle Fu is obviously dead!"
Chu Yunli smiled: "He is a person close to my father, and he was loyal to his father back then. Since he is still here, Lin'an naturally wants to take him in to support him until he grows old...I heard that this was what my father personally promised back then."
Jiang's face was filled with surprise and uncertainty: "Xinlan, Lin'an, he wants to sue me. If this matter gets out, it will not be good for you and your wife. If you have children in the future, you don't want your children to be pointed out, right?
?”
"I'm thirty years old. It's hard to tell whether I have children or not, and I can't care about that much." Chu Yunli looked her up and down: "Since you didn't do those things, there's no need to be afraid!"
Jiang: "..."
"Xinlan, you two are married, so you can live a good life. What are you doing with those old things? His father died of illness in Lin'an. There is no doubt about it. You can check it however you want. I can guarantee that...
We can’t even find out. Don’t bother, it’s important to have a baby as soon as possible!”
"I can't stop Lin'an." Chu Yunli smiled and said, "You can persuade him yourself."
Mrs. Jiang was extremely reluctant to come to the front of the mansion. She had thought about talking to her son before, but after asking for a long time, she could not find him. She had no choice but to come here.
Chu Yunli didn't want to talk to her. The reason why she came out was because she didn't want Yu Xinlan to have a reputation of disrespecting her mother-in-law because of Jiang. Jiang did do some bad things, but now those things are still
The truth has not come out... Before that, Chu Yunli was willing to give her some face.
Just at this time, another person came to the door. A particularly plain carriage, so plain that it even had patches on the carriage shed. Such a carriage appeared unexpectedly in the inner city. Not to mention Chu Yunli, even the Jiang family couldn't help it.
Take another look.
The curtain of the carriage opened, and a woman in her thirties jumped out, none other than Luo Dayun.
She didn't know if her legs were numb from sitting in the carriage for too long. She staggered when she jumped to the ground and held her hands on the ground to prevent her from falling. But her hair was messy, her complexion was sallow, and she looked quite embarrassed. But she was too late.
After sorting things out, I caught sight of Chu Yunli at the gate and stumbled over: "Xinlan, I found you."
Chu Yunli raised his eyebrows: "What do you want from me?"
Having said that, she already knew in her heart that Luo Dayun would definitely come.
Because after returning from the village last time, Chu Yunli asked someone to make an account, regarding Luo Shanbao's expenses in the past few months, and sent it directly to Wan's family.
It was made very clear at that time that Yu Xinlan could not take back the feelings she gave to her adopted son, but she must get back the money she paid.
After careful calculation, there are as many as fifty-seven taels.
Asking the Luo family to pay back six taels of silver would almost kill the whole family. Asking the Wan family to pay back dozens of taels of silver would be worse than just forcing them to die.
Even if they sell all their land, they can only raise half... Even so, the Wan family is considered the richest family in the village. They simply can't afford it.
But a few strong men stood guard at the door, saying bluntly that they would not leave until the debt was received.
With so many people guarding them and not allowing them to go out, it would be difficult to survive.
Luo Dayun was able to get here because he sneaked out from behind. He was chased all the way by the thugs at that time, which was why he was in such an embarrassing situation.
"Xinlan, sir, you have a lot of trouble. I was sorry for you before, but I already know that I was wrong... I really didn't mean to treat you like that on purpose. It's really an accident that you can't have children. If possible,
I don’t want to give my child away either. I gave Shanbao to you just for the sake of
In order to make up for his mistakes." Luo Dayun had thought of this while lying on the road. She was speaking very smoothly at this moment. She burst into tears and said: "You asked those people to guard my door. What do the people in the village think about my house?
Where are you? Xinlan, I apologize to you, please let those people evacuate!"
Jiang looked at this, then that, but didn't speak for a while.
Chu Yunli said casually: "I asked your family to pay off their debts, not to force you to die! Did they attack your family?"
That's not the case.
But just standing guard at the door, staring fiercely into the yard, as if he would rush up and smash it at any time... The Luo family had been smashed before, and now they couldn't find any good items. The whole family was making do with various things.
It's not that the Wan family can't live such a life, but the children are already grown up, and they are about to discuss marriage. If this debt cannot be settled, who dares to marry in?
Luo Dayun almost collapsed: "Xinlan, you are not short of this little money. I didn't ask you to spend so much on Shanbao in the first place. It was your own choice. How can you force us to pay for it?"
Chu Yunli touched her chin: "What you said makes sense."
Luo Dayun felt happy after hearing this.
Chu Yunli turned around and said: "But you can't not pay back at all. Let's just pay back half."
Luo Dayun was stunned.
It was a good deal to reduce the debt by half with just one trip. But their family couldn't afford to pay off the remaining debt... No, if they sold the house and land, they could at least raise 90% of it.
But what happens after the debt is paid?
Not only do people live on the streets, but they don’t have land to farm, so they will go hungry in the future.
"Xinlan, can you..."
Chu Yunli raised her hand to stop her: "I have already taken a step back, don't go too far! Half of it must be paid back! In fact, the government also arranges food, clothing, housing and transportation, and I haven't spent half of it.
He asked for a lot of things himself!"
Luo Dayun: "..." This unlucky kid.
