Chapter 18

The mother and daughter of the Wei family are not stupid, and they will understand what is going on after a moment’s thought.

Wei’s mother is a smart person: “It’s okay, my aunt can still be afraid of them.”

After declining the meal from the Wei family and agreeing to go there together to go through the formalities the day after tomorrow, Yun Yi said goodbye and left.

Why not hand over the work tomorrow?

That’s because the Wei family must be given enough time to collect money. Furthermore, once Yun Yi leads Wei Hongyan over to go through the formal handover procedures, Sun Xiaoyan, the substitute, will have to get out.

In addition, I also want to quiet my ears before going to the countryside, and give Sun Xiaoyan a surprise.

When she got home, Sun Xiaoyan was no longer at the door.

She opened the door and entered the hospital, took out the vegetarian buns she had packed in a state-owned restaurant, and prepared to eat and rest before going out to do errands at night.

*
In the Sun family, the whole family was sitting in the room, all ashamed.

Ma Guiqin, the eldest daughter-in-law of the Sun family, made the elder angry: “The third child is just living a good life by himself. Unless he goes out to cause trouble, I don’t agree to borrow money to get people.”

At this time, the second daughter-in-law also echoed: “The third child’s matter has caused such a big fuss. Even if the family is bankrupt, it will not end well. There are so many mouths in the house waiting for food, and we can’t drink the northwest wind together.”

When the grandma heard what the two daughters-in-law said, her face was full of anger: “You have no conscience. The eldest, second, and third are your biological brothers. What do you mean?”

Sun Jianming, the eldest son of the Sun family, grabbed a handful of his hair and said, “Mom, it’s not that we don’t want to save him. With the situation at home now, how can we save him?”

At this time, Sun Aiming, the second child of the Sun family, coughed lightly: “Mom, if I want to save the third child, I’m afraid I have to go find Chu Yunyi.”

Sun Xiaoyan, who was standing aside, was very conflicted. Chu Yunyi’s attitude today frightened her. She also wanted to save her third brother, but she was afraid that Chu Yunyi’s anger would turn on her.

At that time, if she just says a word, let alone officially taking over the work from her, even the current substitute will be ruined.

Grandmother glanced at her daughter: “You have heard what Yanzi said before. Chu Yunyi is afraid that she already knows the truth about the third child’s arrest, so she won’t buy it at all.”

Sun’s father’s face was full of gloom: “There is no other way now, I have to try, I can’t just watch the third child be ruined like this.”

The two options before them now are: one is to collect 500 yuan and find someone to smooth the relationship; the other is for Chu Yun to come forward and find someone to help, and he has to do it quickly.

Otherwise, not only will the third child lose his job, he may also be pulled out and criticized.

But before they could take action, Su Aiyu’s family came to the door.

Perhaps out of fear of embarrassment, the group did not make any noise outside, but directly opened the door and entered the house.

Grandmother looked down upon the Su family, but now that something like this happened, she could only endure it: “Why are you here?”

Su’s father said with a cold face: “If you don’t come over, your bastard son will have to eat mu**cang**zi.”

There was an elder in the Su family who had some friendship with people from the Revolutionary Committee. He originally wanted his daughter to bite him to death and he was the victim, putting the blame on the third son of the Sun family.

But he didn’t expect that his unsatisfactory daughter already had the seed of the third child of the Sun family in her belly, so the plan would have to change.

He explained the matter simply: “I found a relationship and said that they were seeing someone and would get married soon. I couldn’t control it for a while, so I suppressed the matter.”

Grandmother asked anxiously: “What about my third child? Why didn’t he come back with us?”

Chapter 18
Manager Shang walked out of Jingyang Palace with a faint smile on his face, obviously in a good mood.

“Father.”

Outside the palace gate, eunuchs in colorful clothes were waiting. When they saw Mr. Shang coming out, they all bowed respectfully.

“Let’s go, we have nothing to do with this Jingyang Palace.”

Manager Shang waved his hand gently, said casually, and then left without looking back.

The eunuchs in colorful clothes naturally did not dare to disobey orders and immediately followed.

These words can be regarded as completely eliminating the suspicion of Jingyang Palace.

It seems that the matter of secretly eating the imperial meal has ended with the two eunuchs in yellow from Yanqu Palace.

……

“Your Highness, you actually have polished rice, white flour, and so much money!”

In Jingyang Palace, Yu’er took Princess Ankang into the room and took stock of the compensation sent by Manager Shang on the table.

The Xiujin baggage was divided into two bags, one large and one small. The big baggage contained grain. In addition to the brown rice that had been withheld from Jingyang Palace this month, there were other refined rice and noodles, which surprised Yu’er.

As for the small baggage, it was filled to the brim with copper coins, which was only a lot more than usual.

The two girls looked at the good things in the bag, their eyes glowing green, just like the two little money lovers.

For the two people who were used to being poor, this was a rare occasion.

“Not only that, Manager Shang also gave me a big gift before he left. He said it was a token of appreciation for His Highness.”

Yu’er said, taking out the silver ingot from the inner pocket of her sleeve and placing it in the middle of the table.

The room with closed doors and windows suddenly lit up. In front of the huge silver ingot, everything else in the bag seemed dim.

“So big!?”

Princess Ankang exclaimed, her wide-eyed eyes glued to the silver ingot and unable to move away.

She seemed to have never seen such a large silver ingot since she could remember.

Princess Ankang tried to reach for it, but she couldn’t pick it up from the table at all.

She tried a few more times without giving up, but she was exhausted.

“This is too heavy!”

Princess Ankang has no idea how weak she is.

Seeing Princess Ankang sweating from exhaustion, Yu’er couldn’t help but smile fondly, took out a handkerchief to wipe her sweat, and comforted her: “That is to say, 50 taels of engraved imperial silver is enough for three How heavy it is!”

“Mr. Shang is indeed a figure from the ancestors’ generation, and he is generous in his dealings.”

“This is the first time in so many years that someone has helped us.”

“I always feel that Manager Shang is not as scary as the rumors say.”

As soon as Yu’er finished speaking, a black shadow swooped in from outside the window.

“Ah, Ah Xuan is back. Where did you go to play just now?”

“Let me tell you, something good happened at home.”

Princess Ankang opened her arms and happily welcomed Li Xuan’s return.

But unlike usual, Li Xuan did not rush into Princess Ankang’s arms, but pounced on Yu’er’s head, then showed his Meow Meow Fist and played the military drum.

“Stupid girl, stupid girl!”

“You sold me, and you counted money for others and said good things to others!”

“I will never help you work again!”

“I’m really mad at me!!!”

Li Xuan had been hiding behind the large water tank and listened clearly to the conversation between Yu’er and Manager Shang.

He originally thought that this old eunuch was not simple, and just now he overheard the eunuch in colorful clothes outside the door asking him for instructions on whether to monitor Jingyang Palace.

Li Xuan immediately understood that the old eunuch had no good intentions.

Although it was unclear how the other party suspected them, Li Xuan, who had a secret in his heart, naturally understood that the other party was by no means innocent.

Therefore, he had been hiding from Manager Shang and did not show up. Unexpectedly, he was finally exposed in Yu’er’s hands.

“You are really my weakness!”

Li Xuan beat the military drum angrily and thought viciously.

“Ah ah ah ah ah……”

Yu’er let out a slight cry of pain in a rhythmic manner, but her eyes were still firmly locked on the silver ingot, showing no sign of repentance.

“Axuan, don’t make trouble, your hair will be messed up.”

Yu’er insincerely touched the top of her head in an attempt to stop Li Xuan, but her eyes never left the silver ingot, so how could she possibly catch it?

Li Xuan easily avoided Yu’er’s hand, but the more he thought about it, the more angry he became.

After watching Mr. Shang leave from a distance just now, Li Xuan was afraid that the old eunuch might have another plan, so he worked hard to investigate near Jingyang Palace for a long time, and only dared to come back after making sure that no one was watching.

But as soon as he got outside the house, he heard Yu’er saying good things about Manager Shang. How could Li Xuan endure it.Thinking of this, he was even more angry and bit Yu’er’s head.

“oops!”

“Axuan, come here!”

This time, Yu’er finally woke up from the pain, and stood up to catch Li Xuan.

One person and one cat started spinning around the table, spinning like a top.

This scene made Princess Ankang giggle, and she watched the excitement from the side.

In the end, Yu’er was panting from exhaustion, but still failed to catch Li Xuan, so she had to sit back and complained to Princess Ankang: “Your Highness, Ah Xuan bullied me, and you didn’t help me talk about him!”

“My Ah Xuan is so good, how could he bully sister Yu’er?”

“If A Xuan really bullied you, he must have his reasons.”

Regarding Princess Ankang’s outrageous remarks, Yu’er rolled her eyes helplessly.

Li Xuan was extremely satisfied, so he walked up to Princess Ankang and nuzzled her non-stop.

“This is my good little master, Yu’er, please learn from me.”

Li Xuan was acting coquettishly with Princess Ankang, but he also glanced at Yu’er with disdain, making her so angry that she knocked on the table.

Who knows what else the old eunuch knew. Although Yu’er only told Li Xuan’s appearance, there was no guarantee that it would not trigger more chain reactions.

Li Xuan thought for a while and felt that it was not the same thing to hide like this at home all the time.

Since the other party took the initiative to come to test him, he had to go out to find out the rumors and see how well the two young eunuchs from Yanqu Palace took the blame.

He originally thought about staying at home for ten days and a half, waiting for the limelight to completely pass.

Now it seems that this method is not very reliable.

“If you can’t wait passively, you have to take the initiative.”

Li Xuan made up his mind to go to Yanqu Hall tomorrow to inquire about the news.

The three little ones made noise in the room for a while and then packed up the things on the table.

It’s getting dark, and Yu’er still has to prepare dinner.

Li Xuan was helpless when it came to cooking.

He looked at his cat’s claws, then suddenly exerted force, and the cat’s claws blossomed instantly.

But the degree of flowering is really limited, and I’m afraid it can’t even be picked up by the thinnest chopsticks.

Therefore, Yu’er had to do the cooking herself.

“Your Highness, please leave the silver ingots and these pieces of silver here for safekeeping first.”

Yu’er only picked up the food on the table, took out the silver ingots and the broken silver in her purse, and handed them to Princess Ankang.

“This……”

“Isn’t it Sister Yu’er who has always been in charge of the money and food in Jingyang Palace?”

“I don’t understand this aspect either, so let’s let Sister Yu’er take care of it.”

Just as Princess Ankang was about to shirk, she was stopped by Yu’er.

“No, I carry so much money with me and I’m afraid of losing it. I hide it in the house and I’m worried when I go out to work.”

“Instead of doing this, it is better to leave it to His Highness for safekeeping. Your Highness doesn’t go out much on weekdays, so he can just keep this money.”

“Now that His Highness has grown up, it’s time to start learning these things.”

Although Yu’er said so, Princess Ankang still had some hesitation on her face.

“That’s it, it’s settled. Didn’t His Highness tell me earlier that he would share my worries?”

After hearing these words, Princess Ankang no longer hesitated and nodded firmly in agreement.

“Sister Yu’er, don’t worry, Ankang will take good care of the money.”

“Okay, then Yu’er would like to thank Your Highness.”

In the end, Yu’er just kept the copper coins in her purse, and handed all the silver to Princess Ankang for safekeeping, including the pieces of silver she picked up recently.

There are quite a lot of them in total, and they can be piled up in a small pile.

The three little ones gathered in front of the money, and even Li Xuan couldn’t help but feel a little dazed.

Just a few days ago, they were still worrying about their next meal, but now they are considered rich.

“With this money, we won’t have to eat brown rice porridge all the time.”

Yu’er murmured softly, and their eyes showed expectant looks at the same time.

Tomorrow will be better than today.

Is there anything happier than this in the world?

Chapter 18
“I made an appointment after dusk, under the willow branches above the moon.” It was very poetic, but she made an appointment at midnight.It’s not Zhou Papi who stole the chicken in the middle of the night.

On the old locust tree, Zhou Banxia saw a familiar figure walking quickly in front of her from high to low. She quickly sent out a secret signal, “Meow~ Meow~”

Gu Wenxuan’s steps stopped and he glanced around, “Meow, meow, meow, meow~”

“Meow~”

Gu Wenxuan was overjoyed, rolled up his sleeves, and sprinted forward. Just as he was about to climb up the treetop, he saw Zhou Banxia climbing down with the same grace and grace as before.

“How long have you been here? How did you know that I would come through this path? I was just thinking about how not to disturb the dogs raised by your neighbors.”

Zhou Banxia didn’t have time to reply, so he pointed to the towering wheat stack not far away with one hand, and pulled him to run there quickly with the other hand. When he reached his destination, he squatted down neatly.

“It didn’t take long, less than half an hour.” As for how to guess, it was so simple, who would be stupid enough to go around the densely populated area at the end of the village.

It is much quieter at the entrance of the village, and the main road is not far away.Now that the autumn harvest has just ended, the fields are empty everywhere, and even the trees on the roadside are almost withered and withered.

She came out a lot last night to visit, but now is not the time to talk about this. It is time to go into the house and take a look. Even talking is more convenient than staying here in Maiduo.

Moreover, she had already tested it when she had the opportunity in the past two days.She can move around in the space, and even her pigs and chickens can move around freely.

She just didn’t know why, but for two days in a row, Xuanzi hadn’t used anything in this house, or had any trace of him coming in.

“I’ll do a magic trick for you.”

“Okay.”

“Don’t lean on it.” If he brought the wheat stack in with him, I really don’t know if his small second-floor living room can be stuffed in because it is empty.

Gu Wenxuan was puzzled, but he still hugged Zhou Banxia and avoided it. Just when he was about to joke about when he learned magic, he was in a trance, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

It was a dim moonlit night just now, but suddenly it was as bright as day.Gu Wenxuan closed his eyes in discomfort, then opened them again, looking at the familiar place in front of him.

Your own living room?

Can’t go wrong.

“What’s wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?” Logically speaking, it shouldn’t happen. Last night, she took the anesthesia wooden warehouse to the nursing home and found two old men to test it.

“No!” Gu Wenxuan woke up, looked at the extremely nervous Zhou Banxia, ​​and secretly sighed, “It’s fine, but I didn’t react for a moment.”

Zhou Banxia took a serious look at his face and saw that he really didn’t look like he was trying to comfort her. “You just feel a little uncomfortable. You must tell me.”

Gu Wenxuan quickly pulled her to stand up, turned around first, and then jumped, “Look, it’s okay. Come on, tell me what’s going on.”

“I can’t understand the details. It was when Xiao Banxia saved Mrs. Gao when he was ten years old, and when he woke up, he had an extra warehouse…

I fell in confusedly… and then suddenly realized that it was the storage room on the second floor of our house, the darkroom inside the cloakroom.

The compressed dry food and the antique calligraphy and paintings we originally stored in it are all gone, but the contents of the safe are still there. “

Gu Wenxuan frowned and listened, “These are not important, they will be gone if they are gone. Have you felt tired, had a headache or felt uncomfortable in any way these days? This is very important. Compared with what you can see now If you come in again, the little girl can only see the storage room but can’t come in, it’s not the same thing at all.”

“Understood.” Zhou Banxia pulled him and continued up the stairs, “I will not joke about my own safety. I have paid close attention to myself in the past two days to see if there is anything abnormal.

If there is a problem, I will definitely not bring you in.It’s very strange. I thought I was choking on water, so it would take two or three days to regain my energy, right?

Guess what, I was able to impress and beat up five or six people that night. Even though I was running back and forth in the middle of the night last night, I still felt energetic when I woke up this morning. “

Around the corner was the small living room on the second floor. Gu Wenxuan glanced at her speechlessly and took the lead towards the master bedroom, “Running back and forth in the middle of the night last night?”

Zhou Banxia sneered, “Seeing that you haven’t come in, I wanted to see if I could bring you in, but it wouldn’t be easy to use my own family as a guinea pig.

I just want to hear what those two old guys think privately. Who knows they may have some shady bad ideas, so beware. “

I’ve told you all the truth. He is worthy of being a famous gold medal sales leader in the industry. “After the temptation, did you listen to what they said? Don’t hide it.”

“They just complained and cursed each other. They didn’t even dare to curse loudly in the middle of the night for fear of being overheard by one of the daughters-in-law. Such a scandal was enough for them to cause trouble among themselves.

Besides, didn’t I say that I used Gaofu’s fox to pretend to be a tiger’s power, and beat them so hard that they couldn’t even find bruises? They must have been frightened by me. “

Gu Wenxuan believed what Zhou Banxia said.His wife has learned self-defense techniques, and what she can do to protect herself against workplace harassment is harassment.The one who was knocked unconscious by her was slapped on the head.

Even if there is a period of drought and severe cold that causes food shortages after the marriage.Although Guo Jia lives in a high-end community and has reserves, he still cannot avoid the fact that there are young people who need to be shocked.

Of course, he is not a good person. If he dares to influence his wife, it will be easy to knock her unconscious.He has no power, but at least his parents gave him a brain that is not stupid.

“At least I won’t dare to act like a monster in the short term. Chief Zhou has already said that anyone missing a hair in my family will be blamed on them and they will be exterminated.”

While talking, the two of them entered the cloakroom from the master bedroom. Zhou Banxia opened the camouflaged wooden door of the storage room, and Gu Wenxuan saw that there were actually a lot of things inside.

There are all kinds of things, there are wooden boxes on the shelves, boxes and cages of the same size are neatly stacked in the corners, and there are several baskets and cloth bags in the middle.

Indeed, as his wife said, all the antique jade ornaments on the original shelves were gone, not to mention the plastic boxes used to store some of his compressed food.

On the other hand, the things stored in the safe built into the wall are not missing at all, even the marriage certificate is there. “You see, it is fitting that we are husband and wife.”

Zhou Banxia smiled and nodded.

“Even after a thousand calculations, I still didn’t make it. In the end, I was still one step behind.” Gu Wenxuan sighed secretly and hugged her, “Were you afraid at that time?”

“It’s not your fault.” Zhou Banxia patted him, “From the day you went online to collect information on food shortages, you have already planned everything in place step by step.”

First, they decisively transferred most of the shares to Mr. Chen, and then targeted the real internal reserved houses in the high-end urban community developed by the Haozi family.

It turned out that in just a few months, from high temperatures to severe cold, all suburban villas were greatly affected. On the contrary, the small villa in the same community with Haozi was the safest.

Even if it is an earthquake, don’t be careful in advance.Facts have proved that you are discerning enough. Who would have expected that the flood would come just after escaping from the earthquake and before it rained heavily.
