Boxes and boxes of gold were piled up higher than the eaves of the house when they were brought out of Li's Silver Village, and each box was opened and counted, as if deliberately let the onlookers see it.In the restaurant not far away, there are six people including Patriarch Mo standing in front of the window of the private room on the top floor, and in front of the window of the private room on the second floor of the restaurant opposite stand the second old lady Li and the second master Li.In addition to guessing how much money the Li family had saved, everyone also guessed why the Li patriarch carried a large amount of silver.In the private room on the second floor of the restaurant, standing in front of the window for almost two hours, the second old lady Li was really physically exhausted, so he found a chair to sit down and rest, crutches, bowed his head and pondered.Li Erye squinted his eyes and tried his best to adapt to the dazzling afternoon sun, although he managed the clan affairs and financial accounts of the Li clan, etc., he had no right to control the money, and the keys to the public bank treasury and many private treasury of the Li clan were still in the hands of the Li patriarch.Seeing that the Li patriarch used the private treasury silver stored in the Li family's silver village without authorization, the second master of Li was so distressed that he was upset.He wanted to go out to stop him several times, but he was stopped by the second old lady Li, so he had to stand here in a hurry.The second old lady Li was puzzled and muttered to himself: "What is he going to do?"
Can't buy a house with 10,000 taels of gold?
Is he going to empty his private treasury?
Who gave him what idea?
”asked four questions in a row, and the second master of Li was even more irritable and unbearable, slammed his fist on the windowsill, and scolded: "He is greedy and shameless, and when he sees that the power of his patriarch is about to be taken away, he wants to take the first action to embezzle private property."
Second cousin, you shouldn't stop me!
”The second old lady shook her head and said, "No."
He won't admit defeat easily, and if he can keep the position of the patriarch and win back the right to be the patriarch with just 10,000 taels of gold, I will also agree.Someone gave him an idea, who was that person?
”"Zhuge Yi."
Second Master Li said firmly, moved a chair over and sat opposite Second Old Master Li, and said with unwillingness: "Who is Zhuge Yi helping?"
One moment it's me, the next it's him. ”"Him?"
Second Old Lady Li was curious, and suddenly understood that the "he" in Second Master Li's mouth meant Patriarch Li.Thinking that Zhuge Yi was wandering between Patriarch Li and Second Master Li, it seemed that he was in alliance with Second Master Li, and suddenly turned the spearhead to help Patriarch Li deal with Second Master Li."
Hehe, young hero.Zhuge Zibo is the most admirable young man I have ever seen, not losing to the old ghost Mo back then. ”"Who is Old Ghost Mo?""
The eldest of the previous generation of the Mo family, when he was twenty years old, he went to Jiangnan alone and never returned, and now he has not returned for fifty years.He was five years older than me and was the second cousin of Patriarch Mo. ”Second Master Li suddenly realized that he had heard Mo Rongjiu say that he had met an elder in Jiangnan, and after hearing this, Patriarch Mo's face changed greatly and reprimanded Mo Rongjiu for not disturbing the elder's tranquility.It seemed that Patriarch Mo was very jealous of that elder, which was so similar to his situation.The second old lady Li leaned on the windowsill to look at the Li's Yinzhuang not far away, and saw more than a dozen carriages lined up in front of the Yinzhuang, and a group of powerful men carried the boxes with their bare arms, stacked the silver boxes neatly on the carriage, and fixed them with thick hemp rope."
Ouch, where is all this money going?"
The second old lady Li's heart trembled, and when he saw a carriage pulling a silver box to the city gate tower in the east of the town, he was so distressed that he beat his chest.Li Erye's face was gloomy, and he inadvertently looked at Wuweiju on the other side of the porcelain river, and was stunned to find that the window of the three-story private room was open, and a handsome and beautiful little girl and a handsome man stood in the wind, occasionally laughing and laughing for a while, and then looked at the horse team driving towards the east gate of the town."
Second uncle, I have to take a step in advance, and I will send someone to find out the whereabouts of the silver before I come to the door to report.""
Okay, let's go."
The second old lady Li sat still, and after allowing the second master Li to leave, he looked in the direction of the restaurant.In front of the window of the private room over there, Patriarch Mo was also saying goodbye to everyone and disappeared into the window in an instant.A porcelain river divides the town of Porcelain Yu into two halves, the prosperous market in Hedong, the alley of Minxiang in Hexi, and the Yansheng Hall, the Xian Pavilion, the Wuxin Courtyard and the Longfu Family Temple in the center have been burned to the ground.Five-flavor residence, three-story elegant room.Li Haitang and Ling Eighteen suddenly felt that their legs were weak and their feet hurt after watching the excitement, and they unconsciously stood in front of the windowsill for two hours.Ling Eighteen called the shopkeeper to change a pot of new tea, and Li Haitang shook his head with a bitter face on his full stomach.Wu Yinling and Qingluo went to the inner room to embroider the handkerchief, and occasionally came out to change the charcoal wood of the small copper stove for the begonia.Because Ling Eighteen is here, they don't urge Haitang to go back, even if someone asks, Ling Ye is a cover.Li Haitang was worried about a bowl of fragrant osmanthus sweet porridge, and there was really no empty space for sweet porridge in her stomach, but she couldn't eat it and swallowed her saliva."
AhhWhat to do, what to do!
Woo woo, I'm not going to eat it. ”"Hahaha!"
Seeing that the little girl was crazy about not being able to eat her favorite sweet porridge with osmanthus flowers, Ling Eighteen laughed happily, leaned forward and closed, and almost used the elephant bone fan as a long sword to play it to express his happy mood at this moment.The door of the elegant room was removed, and Second Master Li's gloomy face couldn't hold on anymore when he saw Ling Eighteen's handsome smile.Who dares to blacken his face when he sees the famous Yanxia Lingye?
That's not looking for death.Li Haitang showed an aggrieved little expression in front of a bowl of sweet osmanthus porridge, glanced at the second master Li who was standing at the door, and said angrily: "I knew that the Li patriarch had transported so much silver, and some people couldn't sit still." ”Second Master Li was slightly annoyed, and said unhappily: "My own private treasury has been emptied, who can sit still?"
Stand up and show me. ”As he spoke, he closed the door, walked over and bowed to Ling Eighteen, and said "Ling Ye".Ling Eighteen got up and saluted, and said with a smile: "Second Master Li came later than we expected."
The big husband can endure what the world can't bear, so he can do what the world can do.In my humble opinion, the power that Second Master Li will control in the future will be greater than you expect. ”"With the auspicious words of Ling Ye, I hope my wish will come true."
Second Master Li bowed, and Ling Eighteen said a word.Ling Eighteen laughed heartily and invited Second Master Li to sit down and have a drink together.Li Erye naturally did not shirk, and called the shopkeeper to send a jar of the best peach blossom brew from Wuweiju, and he wanted to return with Ling Ye without getting drunk.Li Haitang felt bored, said goodbye to Ling 18 and Li Erye, led Wu Yinling and Qingluo back to the new house in a carriage, and "coincidentally" met the visiting Li Er's old lady at the door.Yang Yanyan personally came out to greet her, carrying a lantern to lead the way in front.When the second old lady Li did not get out of the carriage, he whispered to Haitang: "When the second master Li went to Wuweiju to see the eldest girl, the second old lady Li saw the Mo patriarch, and I don't know what the two talked about secretly. ”Li Haitang bowed his head, turned around and stood inside the gate, waiting for the second old lady Li to get out of the car.Wu Yinling led the old women to send a few big burdens to the warm pavilion, which was the ingredients that Begonia temporarily bought when she came back, and prepared to make some pasta for Ling Ye to taste tomorrow morning.Qingluo stayed with Begonia and held an umbrella to shield her from the goose feathers and snow.Yang Yanyan stood beside Haitang with a lantern, staring at the old servant who was driving the car for a while, and the more she looked, the more she felt familiar.() Glory to the end
