Chapter 466
Xu Darong was still unhappy, "The money gained in this way is all ill-gotten wealth! We should disperse the wealth. Since my sister gave the third brother a hundred taels for his old age, she also spent another two hundred taels to go to the temple to pay for his death."
Danzi prays, how can I get the remaining two hundred taels by myself? The expenses for our big house are so huge, and gambling has affected my reputation, so why not give us a hundred taels for the big house?"
Yao thought about it, "Darong, what you said makes sense. Old sister, this is indeed not very kind. These are ill-gotten gains, and everyone who sees them should have a share. Fourth brother, us, and even Liao Qing should all share."
One point. You have a reputation. She is doing mischief outside. It's okay if nothing happens. If something happens, you won't have to take the blame. When people say it was a scholar's girl who did it, our big house should be divided.
The big head is the right one.”
These words touched Xu Darong's heart.
"That's the truth. When mother comes soon, you talk to her."
Yao dared to say it in front of Xu Darong, but she didn't dare to say it in front of Xu Zhang.
The lessons and experiences of many times of blood are there.
Xu Darong always asked her to die every time. Even if it made sense, there was no reward or anything. It didn't make sense that the blame was all placed on her. What is this called?
It's not a pleasure to suffer a loss.
Her current relationship with Xu Darong was already much weaker. If things went wrong, Xu Darong would probably dislike her even more.
"Da Rong, I also discussed this with my mother along the way, but she kept scolding me. I am just a daughter-in-law, and my words are not as important as yours. You are a scholar and official, and your words are dignified. My mother and my old sister
I'll give you some face, or you can tell me what's appropriate. I'm a womanly person, so I just need to prepare the food to suit my mother's and my sister's taste. When the time comes, my mother and my sister will be happy eating, so you can start
Say, if I agree again, things will be much easier, don’t you think?”
Xu Darong glanced at her sideways.
"I'll think about it again. You should go make some food first."
He started by saying: With Xu Zhang’s character, it would be strange not to scold him!
How could he start talking about this kind of thing?
He is the backbone of the family. Anyone who gives him some face or cares about his face must take the initiative to ask for it. Why would he be allowed to ask for it?
This kind of ill-gotten wealth should be spent by everyone together.
Yao quickly nodded in agreement.

After Xu Jiaojiao and the others received the wine set goods, they went to the He family's business in Shazhou County.
The two families are related and should move around.
Anyway, I'm here now, so let's find out the way first. It's been a while since the New Year, and the shops have been in normal business for a long time.
Xu Jiaojiao and the others introduced themselves to the family and met the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper was very welcoming. The shopkeeper was the shopkeeper from the He family who went to Lao Xu's house last time.
Asked Xu Jiaojiao's reason, "It turns out that I'm here to pick up the goods. I asked Jiaojiao to go there in person for such a small matter. Next time there are goods coming from the kiln factory, I will ask the Daqing brothers to send them directly to our He's
When the business comes, we have a lot of trucks in the business. I will personally help Miss Jiaojiao take them to Xujiacun."
Xu Jiaojiao smiled, "Shopkeeper He is a busy man and has a lot to do. How dare he bother with the operation of such a big business? We are at home anyway and have nothing urgent to do. It's easy to just go and run by ourselves."
It's not good to owe people too many favors, you have to repay the debt of favors.
It was Xu Jiaojiao who specifically told Xu Laowu to pick up the goods himself. He couldn't bother others with such a trivial matter.
Lao Xu has a large family, so it only takes one day to pick up the goods, so it is not too tiring.
Shopkeeper He saw that all the goods had been received, so he just forgot about it and took Xu Jiaojiao and talked about everyday things for a while.
He is a close confidant of the He family. He also lives in Bingyang City. He went home during the Chinese New Year and came back after the Chinese New Year. The owner of Bingyang City told Xu Jiaojiao everything that happened during the Chinese New Year this year.
"Our wife is in good health this year, and she and the master went out for a visit and met many ladies who were in love with her. Mr. He is planning to get engaged to a young lady from a good family. The master said that they are all Miss Jiaojiao's.
Credit..."
Xu Jiaojiao said politely, "Has your marriage for Mr. He been settled yet? Mr. He is not too young."
They were the same year as Liao Qing, and they are both 19 this year.
Shopkeeper He said with a smile, "Not yet. We talked about several girls and Mr. He was dissatisfied for various reasons. Later, my wife got angry and wanted to beat him, so he said he went out to catch bugs and ran away without a trace."
In the countryside, those who fail to get married when they are older are basically because they are poor.
But this wealthy family is too picky.
Shopkeeper He said this and Mrs. Zhang even laughed.
"Young Master He really has a good temper. Such a good-natured child actually has good intentions. Don't worry too much. Marriage is destined by God. Good children don't have to worry."
Shopkeeper He hurriedly smiled and said, "Thank you for your good wishes, Auntie."
After talking about the He family's affairs, he asked how the wine in the winery was going, "Our master said that if you are short of capital or silver, just ask for as much as you want. You don't have to make things difficult for me. She is half He now."
Regarding family and other matters, the He family may not be able to help much, but just ask about money matters."
Xu Jiaojiao naturally said thank you.
Mrs. Xu Zhang also smiled and thanked her.
The He family really regards Xu Jiaojiao as their goddaughter. No matter what, these words are really beautiful, pleasant and comforting.
Xu Laosi stood beside him and his eyes turned red with envy.
It's a pity that she is not his godmother.
If he had such a rich godfather and godmother, he would not be destined to be a young master in this life!
It was a beautiful day.
Finally, Shopkeeper He whispered to Xu Jiaojiao, "I heard about your third brother, and I also sent a letter to the He family. Don't worry, Miss, the owner of the gambling house will stay in prison for the rest of his life, no.
If he is released again, he will never turn over again. He deserves retribution for doing such an unscrupulous thing that harmed people's lives."
The volume was not loud, and I spoke to avoid people.
However, everyone in Lao Xu's family was present and they were close enough to vaguely hear it.
Mrs. Xu Zhang was moved and said, "This, this, this... is really troublesome to the He family, and makes the He family worry."
Xu Jiaojiao didn't expect that the He family was so well-informed. Maybe they were paying attention to their family's affairs and secretly helped her deal with it.
She also thought, no wonder why this matter was handled so easily and so to her liking.
Also, it seems that the He family is not only engaged in business on the surface, but also has certain connections secretly. This should not be underestimated.
"Be sure to relay it to me. I'd like to thank my godfather and godmother."
"Okay, miss. This is nothing to the master. They are going too far and trying to trick the miss. Our He family is doing business, but if everyone is jealous, they are doing it secretly.
