When Nian Xi heard this, his face changed.

To be detained in the Criminal Department or Dali Temple to try the case, there is also the "eight discussions" theory. No matter how the current imperial historian impeached, the military exploits of entering Qinghai cannot be run.

If it is detained in private, it is difficult to say.

The old lady was calm, glanced at the rich brother, and said, "What's the hurry...... It's not in the way, it's just that the emperor wants to have a clean Halloween......"

Even if the emperor wants to "unload the mill and kill the donkey", it is not good to rush at this time. After all, no matter how much Nian Qianyao was disliked, he was also a hero of the Qing Dynasty.

Nian Fu and Nian Xing glanced at each other, gave birth to a little hope, and said: "Grandfather, if you want to come to the emperor, you are tired of the noise of those imperial histories. Isn't it time to take advantage of this opportunity to dredge up? Can't you let those guys convict your father, and you should also ask your aunt to come forward? ”

The old lady glanced at the hot old man, was silent for a long time, and said: "These words, you don't have to run around without a head, go back to the mansion over there, clean up your father's property, and write a detailed list......"

Nian Fu hesitated for a moment and said: "My grandson obeys the order, but there are some properties in the back, and the title deeds are all with my wife, and I can't be registered until my wife returns to Beijing." ”

The old lady nodded and said, "Break the wealth to avoid disasters, and you don't need to hide your secrets." After all, things are dead, people are alive. ”

Nian Xi and Nian Xing don't think anything, at this time, if they really donate their family property, it will be a good thing for Nian Qianyao to reduce his guilt.

Nianfu knows that it is a sky-high industry, just talking about the field production, Jiangnan and Zhili have added hundreds of thousands of acres in recent years. In addition to these, there are many profitable buying and selling.

The Li family, which has been entrenched in Jiangnan for decades, was copied, and the Nian family benefited the most; After Jiubeizi, who made money, lost power, many industries in the capital were also accepted by the Nian family. The two places are combined into one, plus a few years of filial piety outside, which is richer than the family background praised by the previous generations of the Nian family.

Splashing the sky and being rich is about to be in vain, Nian Fu sighed in his heart, glanced at Nian Xi next to him, and felt more and more that he was the enemy of his life.

The old man's room and the second room have been separated, that is, for the sake of the old lady who is still alive, the second room will not affect the property of the long house if he is convicted.

Although the concubine of the long house has added a son, Nian Xi inherits the past and is still a legitimate heir. Even if Nian Xi takes care of his little cousin and resigns from the title of the long house, he can divide half of the family property equally.

If it is you who succeeds you, it would be fine...... * Cao family, Xifu, and the front yard side hall.

Wei Wenzhi glanced at the table full of wine and food, and then at Tianyou and Hengsheng, who were sitting in danger, and said with a smile: "Okay, how can you find me to eat wine?" ”

Tianyou owed a debt and beckoned Wei Wenzhi to sit down; On the side of Hengsheng, it is a little unsightly.

Wei Wenzhi glanced at Hengsheng and was a little puzzled.

After all, among the sons of Caofu, he and Hengsheng are the most compatible, but because Hengsheng is a companion in the palace, they don't get along much. It's rare to meet, why do you still save face?

"Brother Lin, what's wrong, is it possible to be bullied in the palace?" Wei Wenzhi is now on an errand in the palace, and he has also seen the arrogance of some powerful brothers, so he asked this question.

Hengsheng glanced at him, but did not speak.

Tianyou coughed lightly and said, "Why else, but I heard that you brought a beautiful woman to the house, and I am afraid that it will be spread by the outside, so I invite you to come over for a drink, listen to what's going on, and save me from misunderstanding." ”

When Wei Wenzhi heard this, he laughed and said: "What beauty is not beautiful, it's just that it is difficult to see a friend, and he pulls it." But this sister of his, but she is a martyr, and she only said that she can't take my money for nothing, but she must be a slave and a maid. But if she was really made into slavery, wouldn't she take advantage of the fire to rob? I couldn't persuade her, and her brother had something to do with going out of Beijing, so he left her to live temporarily, and she should be her sister's companion. ”

The friend he said was a neighbor of the same alley.

The family's surname is Luo, and the son's name is Luo Rui, who is also a martial artist, and his family background is still solid, but because his father is addicted to gambling, he lost the family assets, and his son has a difficult life, and even the family affairs that his children have already set are yellow. A few days ago, the gambler's father even sold his daughter Yuzhu, who was about to die.

Luo Rui refused to let those people take the girl away, and begged Wei Wenzhi's side.

The two have a bit of friendship, where can Wei Wenzhi watch his friend's sister-in-law and others as slaves, so he took a righteous hand and spent a hundred taels of silver to redeem the jade bead body deed.

There are still gambling debts outside the Luo family, and Luo Rui is afraid that his father will not give up, so he entrusts his sister to Wei Wenzhi to take care of.

The sister of this family said that she didn't want to be sold by her father again, and would rather join the Wei family as a slave, so as not to be reduced to that dirty place, and she would not be innocent when she died.

It's a mess, and there are people looking for Rory to chase gambling debts. Wei Wenzhi temporarily took Yuzhu in, and Luo Rui went out of the city to hide.

Seeing Wei Wenzhi's expression, Tianyou pondered for a while, and said, "What did your aunt say?" ”

Wei Wenzhi was stunned when he heard this, and said with a smile: "My aunt didn't want to, but after all, she is a little girl, and I can't arrange for her to stay in the guest house......"

In other people's homes, whether it is a biological mother or an adoptive mother, in order to prevent his son from being controlled by his daughter-in-law, he will arrange a house for his son early.

Gui Niang didn't do this, she said that the young masters' parents had a weak relationship, and they suffered a lot when they were young, and they just hoped that the husband and wife would be thicker and have a smooth life in the future.

For this, Wen Jie and Wen Zhi only kept the little maid by their side, and released them when they were a little older, just to avoid them from causing trouble.

Wen Jie and Wen Zhi knew their mother's kindness, but they had no objection to this arrangement.

Hengsheng said: "Even your aunt's will is against your will, it can be seen that you are angry, do you want to come to the second brother Zhi and this surnamed Luo are the brothers who change posts?" ”

Wen Zhi said: "That's not it, it's just that we took the exam together last year." In the end, when it comes to me, I can still watch his sister fall into the fire pit. For me, it's just a gesture, but for their brothers and sisters, it's a matter of life and death. ”

He was just a little weak about going against his aunt's will; For helping the Luo family brothers and sisters, there is nothing to regret.

Seeing this, Tianyou and Hengsheng couldn't help frowning.

It's nothing to do good deeds, but if you can't deal with the aftermath and toss the family, you just don't have a brain.

The Luo family is a family in the capital, and there are always relatives and friends. Even if you have nowhere to go, renting a place to live is better than going to someone with a foreign surname, where do you need to settle in the Wei family?

Most of the daughters of this family have been divorced, the family has also been gambled, and relatives are unwilling to help, the Luo family brothers and sisters took the opportunity to ask Wei Wenzhi for help, and hit the Wei family with their hearts, and then pushed the boat into the Wei family.

"What if the surnamed Luo doesn't come back in three or five months?" Tianyou asked.

"It's just that many people eat, and it doesn't cost a few taels of silver, so you should do a good deed." Wei Wenzhi said disapprerovingly.

"And if he doesn't come back at all?" Tianyou asked: "Or come back and don't show up on this street?" After all, his family has gambling debts, and he is floating outside, whether he can support himself or not is two words, let alone multiple sisters. ”

"Won't it?" Wei Wenzhi listened, a little hesitant.

After all, it's not impossible.

He had a big head for a while, and if Rory came back, everything would be easy to say, he was just helping his friends; If Luo Rui doesn't come back, Luo Yuzhu will become a hot potato.

If you are a servant, you have lost the righteousness of your friends; If you are a godfather, you must prepare a dowry, think about finding a similar family affair, and beware of the Luo family's relatives biting back. If Luo Yuzhu insists on refusing to go, then the identity is unclear.

Thinking of this, a fine sweat appeared on his forehead, and he suddenly understood why his aunt would oppose him to place Luo Yuzhu in the Wei family, and he also somewhat understood why Hengsheng raised his eyebrows.

He raised his head and asked Tianyou: "Brother Zhan, I am a pig's brain, and I am not thoughtful, if it is Brother Zhan, what should Brother Zhan do?" ”

Tianyou said: "What else can I say now?" This is a Luo family matter, and it has nothing to do with you; But you're going to have a big bag, I'm afraid you'll have more cheap uncles in the future......"

Wei Wenzhi hurriedly shook his head and said: "No, no, Luo Rui also has a reputation, how can he ...... his sister and a concubine?"

Tianyou and Hengsheng did not answer.

Wei Wenzhi has a reputation for being a person, and he is on an errand in the palace, the Luo family has been defeated, why can't he be tied to such a family? If Luo Rui didn't have this intention, how could he entrust his sister to Wei Wenzhi, who had an average friendship.

Wei Wenzhi himself thought of this, and he was a little bored.

He just looked at the relationship between the brothers and sisters of the Luo family, and thought that his brothers and sisters depended on each other, so he sent back his kindness, but he didn't expect to fall into other people's calculations.

Hengsheng is a straight surname, and he said: "My little aunt has both virtue and ability, and she is the best among women. Raised in front of his parents, he has never been wronged. Although the two families are discussing marriage now, you also have to think about it yourself. ”

Wei Wenzhi's expression froze, he looked at Hengsheng and said, "Brother Zhan'er, what do you mean?" ”

Hengsheng looked back at him and said, "It's not interesting, even if I'm afraid that you will be kind and make it difficult for my little aunt in the future." ”

He said it bluntly, Wenzhi was embarrassed to care, "hehe" and said twice: "How come, how come?" ”

After all, the two families have not yet been finalized, and Tianyou and Hengsheng don't have much to say...... After a few days, Tianyou returned to Qingyuan, accompanied by Gui Niang and Wen Qiang; Wenzhi is also there, and he nominally took over the errand of the royal palace to give a birthday gift, and he has an extra month of vacation.

When he was walking, he whispered to Tianyou about the arrangements for Luo Yuzhu.

After returning from Cao's house that night, he went to Gui Niang to apologize, and handed over Luo Yuzhu to Gui Niang for placement.

Gui Niang did not let Luo Yuzhu continue to be with Wen Qiang, but placed her in the empty house next door, accompanied by a mother-in-law to do needlework, and had the right to be a needleworkman.

If Luo Rui comes back, let him take Luo Yuzhu back; If Luo Yuzhu refuses to leave, he will sell it directly, and the left and right body deeds are in his hands. Gui Niang said, that is, she can't stay in the house, such a bad and not cheap identity is the most easy to get into trouble...... * Qingyuan, the Governor's Palace, and the official residence.

Li's birthday was approaching, and Cao Song and Cao Fu both sent birthday gifts.

Cao Song's birthday gift, there are several cars, all of which are Jiangning's tuyi, including Jiangning's rice and side dishes. Although it is not worth much money, it is a rare heart.

In the letter, Cao Song also specifically mentioned that many of these birthday gifts were specially prepared by Zhaojia's family. There are also a few paintings, which are also specially painted, which are the street scenes outside the weaving mansion, as well as the scenery near the front of the Confucius Temple, which is said to be for the Li family, and also mentions that they want to take the Li family back to the south to live in some days.

When Cao Fu first arrived in Shanxi, the preparation of the birthday ceremony was somewhat simple, and most of the letters mentioned some of the circumstances after his arrival.

Cao Hao put the gift slip aside, called a small servant, and ordered it to be sent to the upper room.

He himself read Cao Song's letter again.

In addition to family affairs, there are also a few sentences about Jiangnan officialdom, and the governor of Liangjiang seems to be a little sad. It is rumored in officialdom that when Nian Qianyao was in Hangzhou, he sent a heavy gift to the Liangjiang Governor's Mansion.

These are nothing, even if there is no stubble, the governor of Liangjiang will have to be replaced.

Cao Hao is concerned about another thing, Cheng Mengkun, the head of the Cheng family in Yangzhou, died of illness, although he has a son-in-law, he is young, and the family affairs are controlled by the side branch Cheng Mengxian......
