Chapter 1114 Separation

When Brother Zheng arrived at the living room in the front yard, he saw a middle-aged man wearing an old padded jacket standing in the middle of the room.

The housekeeper introduced Brother Zheng's identity: "This is my young master, you can talk to him if you have anything to say."

Zheng Geer had a bad feeling in his heart: "How did you know my uncle? Where is my uncle?"

Although the man was afraid, he still said, "Give me five hundred taels of silver, and I will tell you."

Seeing Brother Zheng's face was gloomy, the man hesitated and said, "If you don't give five hundred taels, you can give two hundred taels."

Although their mother and son moved out of Han Jiancheng's house that day because of Lu's family, Brother Zheng always remembered Han Jiancheng's kindness to him.

Brother Zheng nodded and said, "Come in!"

As soon as the words were finished, a maid came in holding a red tray.

Brother Zheng pointed to the five ingots of gold on the tray and said, "One tael of gold in the capital can be exchanged for eleven taels of silver. Each ingot of gold is ten taels. You can exchange it for five hundred and fifty taels of silver at the bank." Not worried that this person is lying to him.

The man put the five ingots of gold in the tray into his mouth one by one and took a bite, and was ecstatic after confirming that they were all real gold. It's done, it's done now.

Brother Zheng asked in a deep voice, "Where is the letter?"

The man came back to his senses and said, "My name is Ada, and I came to the capital from Panshan."

After finishing speaking, he took out a piece of paper from his sleeve: "A man named Ah Liu gave it to me, he said that as long as I hand over this letter to you, you will give me five hundred taels of silver. "The man vowed that as long as the letter was sent here, the other party would definitely give five hundred taels of silver. Money touches people's hearts, and five hundred taels of silver is something he can't earn in his entire life. I thought if it was true, I would get rich. With this money, he can buy a house and land after returning to his hometown, and then marry a wife. If it's fake, it's just a waste of money. Unexpectedly, he won the bet.

After reading it, Brother Zheng crumpled the paper: "My uncle said in the letter that he is now at the Iron Mine in Wangjia Town, Panshan? dig iron. The work in this iron mine is heavy and difficult, and the food and clothes are not good. I don't know how his uncle is doing now.

Ah Da said: "Yes. I am from Tangshan, and I also worked in the iron mine before." Mining iron.

Fortunately, the new steward transferred from the mine was his cousin who hadn't released the fifth server, so he was released.

Brother Zheng knew that many of the people working in the gold mine, silver mine and iron mine were captured captives. He didn't expect that his uncle was also taken as a prisoner and sent to the iron mine to dig iron.

General Ada reported the place where he temporarily stayed, and said, "If there is anything, you can come to me." Although Ada looks silly, he is not really stupid. There must be someone who lives in such a big house People with money and power. It is not easy to find him. Therefore, it is better to take the initiative to report to the house.

Brother Zheng didn't let people leave, but said: "If you are willing to lead us the way, I can give you another hundred taels of silver." It is also because of the exact location, and they can find the person without Ah Da. . Certainly not that fast, though.

You can earn a hundred taels of silver just by leading the way. Ada is not willing to say: "Okay! But I have to go back to my hometown first!" There is still an old mother at home, so I don't know if she is okay now.

Brother Zheng asked the housekeeper to take Ah Da down to rest first, then turned around and went back to the backyard.

Yu Rong was fidgeting, seeing Brother Zheng, he hurriedly asked, "Zheng'er, did your uncle really write the letter?"

Brother Zheng said: "Looking at the handwriting, it should be written by my uncle." The main reason is that the words were not written with a pen, but with black charcoal, and they were still written on straw paper. Therefore, he was not 100% sure.

Yurong burst into tears: "Didn't you go to Liaodong? How did you end up in the iron mine?" Is the iron mine insane? I don't know how much I have suffered,

How much have I suffered.

Brother Zheng comforted: "Mother, as long as uncle is alive, it's better than anything." Last year the emperor moved to Shengjing, but he heard that there were many bandits and robbers on the road, and many people died on the road. Uncle is very lucky to be alive.

Only then did Yurong wipe away her tears: "Brother Zheng, it's so cold in the twelfth lunar month, there is no time to delay, you have to send someone to pick up your uncle right away."

Brother Zheng also thought the same way: "Mother, let Yu Dong take the two servants with him!" Yu Dong did not abandon them at the time of crisis, and when he settled down, Yu Rong married Hong Yin to him. .

Yu Rong nodded.

The next day, Yu Dong took two people and followed Ada to Panshan.

Time passed quickly, and the Lantern Festival came out in a blink of an eye.

Brother You said: "Mother, do you really want me to work in the Ministry of Criminal Justice?" Seeing Yu Xi nodding, Brother You said with a bitter face: "Mother, I am the youngest when I go to the Ministry of Criminal Justice, what will they do when they bully me? "

Zao Zao burst out laughing: "Bullying you? Are you the kind who allows others to bully you? Ayou, you can find a better excuse if you don't want to go to the Ministry of Criminal Justice."

Brother Yu lowered his head, although he said he was not afraid, but he was really flustered when he was going to the Ministry of Criminal Justice.

Zao Zao looked at Brother You's face, and was overjoyed: "Ayou, are you scared? Ayou, the people in the Ministry of Punishment are not tigers, what are you afraid of them doing?"

Yu Xi touched Brother You's head and said: "Don't be afraid. You just go to the Ministry of Criminal Justice to learn something, just watch, listen, and ask more questions. Don't interfere with the rest. If you really can't see it, you can ask your uncle." As Brother Yu, no one would bully him without eyes.

Thinking about the past, Brother Yu regretted so much: "Mother, I offended uncle before, would he think that I didn't teach me?" It's a trivial matter not to teach, and I'm most afraid that he will use this to reprimand him.

Zao Zao let out a cry and asked, "Ayou, when did you offend Uncle, why didn't I know?"

Liu'er also looked at Brother Yu curiously.

Qi Hao said with a smile: "Ah You, Uncle is not so small-minded. Besides, you didn't do anything when you were in Jiangnan that day." He didn't think Brother You's behavior was overdone that day, because the Han family at that time It was indeed too extravagant. At that time, frugality was advocated from top to bottom, and the company of the Governor's Palace seriously affected the atmosphere.

Yuxi laughed and said: "Ayou, your uncle is not a person with a small belly. If you ask him something, he will definitely teach you well and will not hide his secrets. Besides, he didn't think carefully about Jiangnan's affairs. Thanks to you for correcting it in time."

Brother You asked in disbelief, "Really?" It wasn't that Han Jianming was narrow-minded enough to make things difficult for him, it was Brother You who had a guilty conscience.

Qi Hao laughed and said: "Uncle is an adult, how can I have trouble with you as a child." Besides, Brother Yu is a prince, even if the uncle is an elder, he would not dare to show shame to Brother Yu, let alone give him small shoes. Otherwise, the father and mother will not be able to pass the test.

Brother You admired Qihao the most, and besides, Qihao was also involved in Jiangnan's affairs. So when he heard this, he really didn't worry: "Brother, if you say I'm a child, aren't you also a child?"

Yuxi laughed and said: "You are all children." It's just that her family's children are relatively precocious, and none of them look like children.

After talking, everyone was ready to leave. Qiyou stayed behind, and said to Qihao and Zaozao who were looking at him: "You guys go first, I have something to tell mother."

There were only mother and son left in the room, Yuxi smiled and asked: "What's the matter? Tell me!"

"Mom, do you know about the whitening cream?" Zao Zao has used this whitening cream for more than a month, and it has become much whiter. Seeing that this thing has such a miraculous effect, Brother Yu's heart has long been itchy.

Yuxi is such a shrewd person, she laughed when she heard this: "What? Do you want the secret recipe of whitening cream?"

Brother You didn't hide anything, nodded and said: "Mother, you see that this whitening cream has such a good effect, selling it will definitely benefit many people."

Yuxi smiled, this brat is very good at talking: "I'm afraid it will benefit your pocket?"

"It can make money, and it can also make many girls look beautiful. Mother, you will definitely not object to such a good thing!" If this whitening cream is sold, it will definitely make a lot of money!

It was also in the jewelry business that Brother Yu realized that this woman's money is the best to earn. Besides jewellery, clothes and rouge and gouache are the best sellers. As long as the thing is good, no matter how expensive it is, there is no need to worry about being sold.

Yuxi said with a smile: "Fang Zi can also give it to you, but you must work hard in the Ministry of Criminal Justice. If you don't behave well, you won't talk about it."

"How long?" Hearing one year, Brother Yu smiled and said, "Okay, it's limited to one year. Mom, you have to get me a few more recipes!" The more secret recipes there are, the more The more money you make!

"It depends on your performance." Good stuff, we should use it together.

"Mother, don't worry, I will study hard." Even for his own pocket, he will study hard.

After a pause, Brother Yu asked: "Mom, what is Dad busy with recently? After eating, you can't see anyone. Are there so many things?"

"I'm busy with business!" As for what it was, Yuxi didn't say anything.

On the second day, Brother Yu went to work in the Ministry of Criminal Justice. When I came back in the evening, I went to find Qihao, and talked to him excitedly for nearly half an hour.

Seeing how excited Brother You said, Qihao's heart skipped a beat. It seems that the Criminal Department really went to the right place

After the first month, the Han family separated. Because they have already left the clan, the division of the family is decided by the two brothers Han Jianming and Han Jianye themselves.

Han Jianming divided the family property into two, and the two brothers each got half.

After reading the list, Han Jianye resolutely disagreed: "Brother, you earned these things. If I took them, I would become someone."

Han Jianming has always taken money lightly, and he has never been short of money since he was a child: "What did I earn? We earned this money together, so it should be shared equally." Han Jianye's trophies and rewards all belong to the public.

Han Jianye shook his head and said, "Brother, I know how much money I earn, and I'm sure it's not that much." Besides, his wife and children are all in the house, which is also a big expense.

Seeing that Han Jianye was unwilling to take it, Han Jianming had no choice but to ask Qiu Shi to come forward.

The Qiu family looked at Han Jianye and said: "In the past, the eldest son inherited 70% of the family business, but this inheritance is basically passed down from the ancestors. Now this family business is earned by the two of you brothers, and you should share it equally. .”

Han Jianye shook his head and said, "Mother, brother, I have a title and salary, even if I can't divide the family property, I can still let Axiu and Jiashun have no worries about food and clothing."

Han Jianye didn't say he didn't want a share, he said he could get 30%. Too many, he is determined not to.

Finally, Han Jianming backed down a step: "Then you get 40%, and I get 60%." Seeing that Han Jianye was still refusing, Han Jianming said with a dark face: "If you treat me as a big brother, then accept it."

Qiu Shi also said: "Ye'er, your eldest brother has already made concessions, so don't be stubborn anymore."

Han Jianye still didn't accept it.

Han Jianming had no choice but to use his trump card: "Jianye, you have to think about me. If you only share a little of your family property, let others think of me by spreading it? Do you want people to criticize me for treating you harshly? "This stubborn temper, I don't know who it looks like.

When it comes to this, Han Jianye can only compromise.

After the property is divided, the second room will soon move out of the Duke's Mansion and move into the Imperial Dingyuanbo Mansion.

Qiu thought that the second room was about to move out, and she felt very depressed. When people are old, they like to have a lively family together.

Seeing this, Lu Xiu smiled and said, "Mother, Uncle Dingyuan is only half a street away from the Duke's Mansion. If you have anything to say, send someone over and I'll be right there." That's being a guest. She no longer needs to get involved in the affairs of the Duke's Mansion, so she can rest easy.

After hearing this, Qiu's mood improved a lot, but she still said, "After all, it's not as convenient as living in the Duke's Mansion."

Before moving out, the two brothers had an in-depth talk. Han Jianye said: "Brother, when we move into Uncle Dingyuan's mansion, I will submit a letter to the Ministry of Rites and invite Jiashun to be the eldest son." Jiashun is his eldest son, so naturally he should be the son of the eldest son. It was also because Han Jianming didn't invite the crown prince, that's why he kept holding back and didn't accept the book. But now that the family is separated, I'm afraid that Jiashun will think too much if he doesn't write a booklet.

Han Jianming was silent.

Han Jianye said: "Brother, although Brother Chang's talent is mediocre, the eldest son has inherited the family business since ancient times. If not, it will be the root of the chaos in the family." The government will fight for the title of title.

After a pause, Han Jianye said again: "Brother, I know you want to ask Brother Hua to be your son, but the empress will not agree."

"I asked the queen's opinion before, but the queen didn't say anything." Obviously, Yuxi was not satisfied with Brother Chang either. But after all, this was not in line with etiquette, so Yuxi remained silent.

After finishing speaking, Han Jianming smiled bitterly and said: "Jianye, the Duke's Mansion is handed over to him. I'm afraid that after I'm gone, the Duke's Mansion will be defeated again. It took all my hard work to revitalize the family. Brother Chang's generation will be defeated, how can you let me be reconciled."

After hearing this, Han Jianye didn't know what to say immediately.

ps: Sorry, ten minutes late.
