Hongye was lying on the table with his little head thinking, and his other little hand was holding a brush and gesturing on the paper, Xu Hao intended to exercise his sister, and he wanted to go out when he got up.

I didn't want Momiji to suddenly say, "Brother, can I sleep with you at night?" ”

Xu Hao turned his head and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Hongye said: "Sister asked me to go to the green bamboo house to sleep, and let the bedroom to the two sisters of the Wang family, but I don't want to be with the green bamboo, I slept together last night, and the dead girl grinded her teeth and talked in her dreams in the middle of the night, and she hated it to death." ”

"Hah!" Xu Hao immediately remembered his cousin Xiao Yuying's habits, but he didn't like to sleep in the same bed with people, and the two girls who were pampered by the Wang family were probably the same, so he said: "Otherwise, you, the eldest sister and Yuying will stay here for the time being, and let the Tianxiang Pavilion be given to the guests, and I will go to my mother's place for a few days." ”

Hongye said: "The eldest sister and Sister Yuying have both moved over, and I am impatient to see my cousin's face, so the eldest sister wants me to go to Luzhu." ”

It turns out that there are three bedrooms on the second floor of Tianxiang Pavilion, and the three guests are exactly one person, Xu Hao smiled and said: "This one is unwilling and that one is unwilling, then you sleep in my bed, and I sleep in the study." ”

The satisfied Momiji unceremoniously occupied the dove's nest, but he didn't forget to give his brother a sweet smile, and lowered his head to think about his own business. Xu Hao shook his head helplessly, and suddenly remembered Qiu Xiang's condition, he felt that it was nothing, and he had been letting Qiu Xiang sleep in the outhouse, and now that the little sister and a few maids were going to live in, they had to move Qiu Xiang to the side room.

Lifting his feet from the corridor to the outer hall, he happened to see Qingwen walking in with a few gift boxes, Xu Hao stopped and asked, "Who sent it?" ”

Qingwen pouted and said: "Who else can it be, naturally it is the mothers who are thinking about good things, Sister Zhulan is here with us, and the big girl in the old lady's house is missing half of it at once, who can sit still?" ”

Xu Hao said strangely: "Then what is the matter of sending me here?" Why don't you beg the wives? ”

Qingwen suddenly said: "You're not at home today, no wonder you don't know!" In the morning, the eldest lady was reprimanded by the old lady, saying that the wife spent too much silver, and she couldn't even send out the monthly money for this month, and the monthly money of the long house would be halved in the future until the deficit was made up. No, those mothers moved their minds and wanted to send their girls to the old lady's room to be a big girl, twelve taels of silver a year. ”

"That's not right!" Xu Hao frowned, he had already ordered the account to be sealed, and prepared enough copper coins to distribute the family's monthly money, and also told his mother, it was impossible for his mother to say anything, so why did it suddenly reach the ears of the old lady?

The old lady hadn't asked about the trivial matters in the house for a long time, and there was no word about the things that were more excessive than here in the past, so why did she have an attack today without warning? Someone must have secretly snitched, and there is really no impermeable wall in this big family.

The whistleblower was none other than one of the three gentlemen in the bookkeeper, or who they had told him! Xu Hao somewhat understood, except for the third wife, Liu, he couldn't think of anyone who would be so boring.

Whether it was or not, Xu Hao didn't plan to pursue the matter, but it reminded him that he should be upright and upright, and if he is selfless, he is not afraid of the villains.

Xu Hao immediately ordered to send all the gifts back, went into the house to see Qiu Xiang's condition, took the medicinal soup and lay down for two days and sweated, basically no hindrance, and after a few words, he went straight to Fushouju. As soon as I entered the house, I saw my mother, Liu and several other aunts accompanying the old lady.

The old lady seemed to be angry, and let her daughters-in-law say all the good things with a cold face, and when she saw Xu Hao walking in, she immediately laughed.

Xiao Shi said dissatisfiedly: "We coaxed your son for a long time, and it is not as useful as a baby grandson?" This is too biased. Let's go, let's go, and in the future, just let Hao'er live with you. ”

"Let's go, let's go, I don't miss you." The old lady beckoned to Xu Hao with a smile, "Hao'er fights for grandma, who will you spoil if you don't spoil him?" It's just that the heart is too good, and so big things are concealed and not said, which is not good. ”

Liu pouted quietly, and said in his heart that the third child is really getting more and more favored, and he has to call his son back quickly, otherwise there will be no place for him in the old lady's heart in the long run.

"The child knows it's wrong."

Xu Hao knew what it was for, he didn't have the heart to help the eldest mother say good things, so he walked closer and said directly: "A few days ago, the elder brother of the Zhu family helped me get an official contract for a hotel, and the child was thinking about transferring it to my sister and Hongye to take care of it, and when they got married in the future, it would be used as a dowry. ”

Xiao and several aunts were stunned for a moment, and Liu hurriedly said: "How can it be, this property is yours and belongs to our family, even if you, as a brother, think about your sisters, and give more dowry at that time, how can your own property be given to outsiders in vain?" ”

Xu Hao was a little dissatisfied in his heart, and said humbly: "What you said is true, but I have already promised Hongye, I don't want to lose my sister's trust." ”

Liu said disapprerovingly: "Hongye will be someone else's person after marrying in the future, and his brother will still settle accounts!" The third child, you are soft-hearted and a good boy, this wicked person let your aunt do it for you, Qinglian has always been sensible, it is not difficult to make sense, as for the girl of Hongye, she is stubborn, but I am her elder, so I don't believe that she is unreasonable. ”

The old lady was also a little surprised, thought about it and nodded and smiled: "Your third aunt is right, although our family is not rich, we are not greedy for your business." You just want to use the restaurant to support Qinglian and Hongye at your husband's house, right? You don't know how to marry your husband, once it is known, the restaurant must not be robbed? And such people are not reasonable at all, and they will inevitably beat us up and accuse our family of stirring up harmony behind our backs. ”

"Yes." It was rare for Liu to see that the old lady agreed with him, and his spirits perked up, and he immediately planned wholeheartedly, "If you want me to say that half of the elements of the restaurant are given to their sisters, it is enough." In the future, all the income will be stored in the family, and if you want to use the money, you will send someone to the ward, and our family will secretly send the silver to their sisters, so not everyone is happy! Mother, what do you see? ”

The old lady nodded with a smile, Xu Hao also had to admire that the third aunt was indeed more thoughtful than he thought, he was not a selfish person, he immediately reciprocated, and said with a smile: "The other half will be divided equally among the other sisters, the second sister and her family will not be short of money to spend in the palace, and the four of them are counted in Luzhu." ”

Liu looked at Xu Hao, who was generous, and was very touched in his heart, don't look at this matter, but it already reflects the vision and open-mindedness of the third brother who is superior to his peers. At such a young age, I began to know that I had to think about the future for my sister and sister, how delicate my mind was? And come over openly and tell the elders, it seems open-minded and has no worries, how thoughtful is it? And for his own suggestion, he was immediately humbly taught, and quickly turned his original selfishness around, so as not to offend any of the elders in the family, how exquisite?

The most rare thing is that he is not greedy for things outside his body, not that he doesn't like silver, but he must know that with his own ability, a mere restaurant is not eye-catching at all, and it is also his idea to buy ancestral property, which shows that he has the means to make a fortune.

Also, among the four of their brothers, he is the only one who is quietly befriended by the prince of Yan Wang, and he can easily earn back his future prospects by himself, and the third child must not be a thing in the pool in the future, and he cannot be offended in the future.

Thinking of this, Liu was not only glad that he was telling the sister-in-law a secret today, but he also changed his mind because of the old lady's appreciation, otherwise he would have offended the second sister-in-law and the nephew who seemed to have an unlimited future in the future, and he might have to suffer the consequences in the future.

Thinking of this, Liu hurriedly smiled and said: "It's hard for Hao'er to think about the sisters, my aunt is here for them, and it just so happens that your third uncle sent someone to send back some good furs, and I will sew a few new clothes and cloaks for you by myself, and then let your sister personally send them to you, see that your original mink cloak has been worn for a few years and is old, just give it to the people below." ”

The surprised Xiao Shixin said what was wrong? The younger siblings who have always been stingy have suddenly become generous, are they really moved by their son's actions?

Here, Xu Hao nodded with a smile and thanked him, and said to the old lady: "Grandma is missing a maid who is waiting, should I make up for it?" ”

"I talked about it before, but because you have filial piety, you are so worried about it." Xiao Shi hurriedly took over the words, and while gently tapping the old lady on the back, he said: "You are kind enough to save the family's expenses, and the daughters-in-law are very moved. But our family can still be eaten poor by four maids, can we be poor? Doesn't it make outsiders laugh at us as the harsh parents of our younger generations? Besides, if you are old, what should the whole family do? It's only been a long time since the maids were added, and they forced everyone out! What did that become. ”

"Yes." Liu immediately took over the words of the second sister-in-law, "Mother, you have always been kind-hearted and well-informed, you must know that if there is a girl in this house, the daughters of the people under the house will have no way out, either marry the poor family early or have to show the two sisters-in-law, and beg to sell their daughters to other people's families as girls, otherwise if there are more idlers who open their mouths to eat, the whole family will starve." The daughters-in-law know that they are wrong, and they must be thrifty in the future, so let go of your mouth when you are old. ”

Xu Hao also lost no time in saying: "Grandma, don't worry, now that the third uncle is an official outside, the child will also help his father take care of the family business, and our family's life will only be prosperous in the future." ”

In the end, the old lady with mixed feelings sighed: "That's it, since you are all sensible, what is the old body worried about?" Just make up for the girl tomorrow as usual. ”
