Chapter 662, Tree Branches
Yan Zhigao and Yan Wenxiu went back to the house, first went to see the old lady Yan, let the old lady feel relieved, and then went back to their respective yards, and did not immediately see the other people in the family.
Ms. Li personally served Yan Zhigao to wash, during which time, she told him what Daohua had investigated.
Yan Zhigao heard that he was in jail because of the gift of his second brother, and his eyelids twitched fiercely.
Although he has nothing to do now, he, as the chief of the government, was arrested in front of so many people and was still in the provincial jail for one night. People who don’t know the reason for this don’t know what to say about him. He will be in the future. The reputation of the subordinates and the people will definitely be affected.
Mrs. Li looked at Yan Zhigao’s face, and after he had eaten something, she asked: "Second brother. Does the master know about accepting bribes outside?"
Hearing this, Yan Zhigao shook a bit, staring at Mrs. Li with wide-eyed eyes: "What accept bribes?"
Mrs. Li sighed, and showed Yan Zhigao what Daohua had found in Li’s family and his brother’s search.
Yan Zhigao flipped through it quickly, the more he looked at his face, the greener his face, and finally his hands shook: "This bastard, is he going to kill me?!"
He can't imagine what will happen to him if these things fall into the hands of political opponents.
Other people don’t care if he knows these things, he will only think that he acquiesced to his brother to do it, so in the end, it will be him who will bear the responsibility.
Mrs. Li was full of sorrow: "Master, I really didn't expect my second brother to be so courageous that he did so many misfortunes behind your back. If it weren't for our daughter this time, he still doesn't know when he will hide from us. ."
"It's not a disaster to count, it's so stupid to hand over the evidence to the outer room for safekeeping, but I don't know anything about the collusion between the outer room and the Jiang family."
"Master, I'm really scared. You're fine this time. God bless you, your ancestors. But next time? Can we have such good luck again and again?"
Yan Zhigao was also full of fear, cold sweat oozes from his forehead, he finally got to where he is today, and almost fell into the abyss.
Ms. Li looked at her husband’s flushed cheeks, and did not continue to say more.
She really endures the second room enough. It doesn’t matter if she hasn’t done anything for the family in these years, she still cheats them like this. When she thinks that her second brother almost harmed her husband, and almost ruined the future of her son and daughter, she was angry in her heart. I can't stop it anyway.
On the other side, Han Xinran is also talking to Yan Wenxiu about what happened at home in the past two days.
"Fortunately, the eldest sister discovered the second uncle’s outer room in time and checked the evidence of the second uncle’s acceptance of bribes. Otherwise, I don’t know what to do."
Yan Wenxiu closed his eyes and rubbed his swollen temples. He had barely closed his eyes in these two days. At this moment, both physically and mentally, he was very exhausted. Hearing what his second uncle had done, his heart was also extremely annoyed.
"Second uncle usually looks very smart, how can he do some stupid things?"
Han Xin hesitated for a moment, and said, "Maybe it's been praised a lot." In the capital, she has often heard of people like Second Uncle. They are hiding under the protection of their family members. They are incapable and praised. With a few sentences, I can't distinguish between east, west, south and north, and the number of catties.
Yan Wenxiu snorted coldly, “My second uncle’s life has really been very moist these years.” Otherwise, how dare to raise the outer room, even the son will be born.
Han Xinran couldn't answer these words, and instead boasted Daohua: "I really didn't expect my eldest sister to be so powerful. When she captured the second uncle's outer room before, the second uncle looked anxious. I looked scared, but the eldest sister was stunned to suppress the second uncle."
"Father was arrested, and you followed to the provincial government. The family panicked. In the end, the elder sister came back to calm the scene and stabilize the people."
"While preparing food to save my father, while sending people to inquire about the whereabouts of the lost rations, I am not impatient or impatient. Everything seems to be under control. It really doesn't look like a girl raised in a deep boudoir."
She thinks she can’t do what Daohua does.
After Yan Wenxiu heard this, she smiled: "The eldest sister is not an ordinary boudoir daughter. She used to run out of town and opened a shop and buy a Zhuangzi. I have also persuaded her mother to restrain her. The eldest sister’s temperament."
"Now that I want to come, the girl’s family still has to go through more things. It is not easy to manage the store and the Zhuangzi. It is really important to exercise the ability of people not only to ensure profitability, but also to manage the subordinates."
Han Xinran agreed.
That afternoon, Yan Zhigao called Yan Zhiyuan to the main courtyard.
Although he only called him alone, everyone in the second room came.
Daohua and Yan Wenxiu also came and sat with them.
Yan Zhiyuan knew that he had made a big mistake this time. As soon as he saw Yan Zhigao, he knelt down: "Big brother, I am sorry for you. If it were not for me, you would not be in prison this time. Please punish me. !"
Yan Zhigao looked at Yan Zhiyuan solemnly, did not ask him to get up, but interrogated in detail what he had done with his family back these years.
Hearing that Yan Zhiyuan had accepted nearly ten thousand taels of silver from others over the years, the faces of everyone in the Yan family changed and changed.
Yan Zhigao directly threw the tea cup in front of Yan Zhiyuan, gritted his teeth and said: "All the money, land deeds, and shop deeds you have collected over the years have been handed over to me."
Yan Zhiyuan saw that his elder brother was so angry that his veins were rising, and he was also frightened. He nodded quickly: "I pay it, I pay it all."
Yan Zhigao looked at Yan Wenxiu: "Have you remembered all the things your second uncle said just now?"
Yan Wenxiu nodded.
Yan Zhigao: "From tomorrow, you will go to the aftermath in person, the compensation for the compensation, the accompaniment of the money, you must not be less, you must erase these things."
Yan Wenxiu nodded again: "Okay."
Mrs. Li heard it, her brows were frowning, Erfang made a mistake, and Dafang always came to treat the aftermath. Seeing her son's tired look, her resentment towards Erfang grew a little bit more in her heart.
Ina Flower sat aside and didn't speak, her eyes lowered and she didn't know what she was thinking.
Just as Yan Zhigao was reprimanding Yan Zhiyuan loudly, Wang Man'er entered the house and whispered a few words in Daohua's ear.
Daohua talked to Mrs. Li and left the house. It took about two quarters of an hour before she returned.
"Did something happen?"
As soon as Daohua came in, Mrs. Li couldn't help asking.
Daohua shook her head and looked at Yan Zhigao: "The lost rations have been recovered."
Hearing this, Yan Zhigao and Yan Wenxiu are both happy.
Yan Zhiyuan was also very happy: "Brother, since our family has nothing to lose, let's let Mei Niang go. She is also threatened by the Jiang family. Now Wen An is still young, and she can't leave her mother."
Hearing this, the people in the room couldn't help being stunned.
Yan Zhigao looked at his brother in disbelief. At this time, he was still thinking about the outer room, without realizing how big a mistake he had made.
"Humph!"
Ina Hua couldn't help it, and immediately sneered: "Second Uncle, what does it mean to have no loss?"
"When the rations were lost, you forgot the corps who were killed? Their lives are not fate. Have you ever thought about their families? Don't these need my father to comfort me?"
"In order to recover the army rations, the people sent to find a lot of injuries, are these not losses?"
"Father was arrested and detained for one day and one night. His reputation was damaged and his majesty was damaged. Isn't this a loss?"
"Although my father has been released now, you don't think that this is the case, do you? The loss of military rations is true. How could my father have a reputation for ineffective supervision? Obviously this year's assessment can be top-notch, but because of this mistake, maybe The assessment can only make a middle or low score. Isn't this a loss?"
"Because of this, the family was panicking, and my grandmother was also suddenly ill. Isn't this a loss?"
Talking, Daohua raised her head and sneered: "Second Uncle, you have no loss at all, because all the losses have been borne by others!"
After hearing Daohua's words, everyone in the room was silent. Yan Zhiyuan opened his mouth and looked at Daohua. It took a long time before he said coldly, "Then what do you want? Meiniang gave birth to a son for the Yan family. Could it be you? Still want to kill her, can't you?"
"Second brother!"
Ms. Li stood up with a face full of anger: "Second brother, Daohua is just telling the truth, please don't get on with her if you have nothing to do, as if she forced you to do everything."
said, looking at Daohua and winking at her, "It's all right here, go down." The master came back, and she didn't want her daughter to interfere in the second room at all, so as not to complain in the future.
Daohua glanced at Mrs. Li, she didn't want to stay here too much.
Sun Changze helped to find the army food. When fighting for the food, he had a fight on the river with the people hired by the Jiang family. I heard that many people were injured, and she had to compensate and appease these people.
Seeing Daohua leaving, Yan Wenjie and Zhu Qiyun were too anxious. They didn't expect that Yan Zhiyuan would be so stupid that they would plead with the outer room at this time. Isn't this adding fuel to the fire?
Looking at Yan Zhigao, who was cold and silent, Yan Wenjie was a little panicked. If his uncle beats and scolds his father, he won't be so panicked, but now his uncle doesn't say anything, his heart is lost.
Yan Wenjie couldn't help but look at the Sun family, hoping that she would say a few words so that the scene would not be so stagnant.
Unfortunately, Sun's head fell silent and didn't even look at him.
Zhu Qiyun saw her mother-in-law not saying a word, knowing that she was hurt by her father-in-law and she didn't want to care about him anymore.
Hey, they are afraid that they are going to share a relationship with Dafang.
"Go down, all of you, I'm tired and want to rest."
Yan Zhigao suddenly came, and then left without waiting for everyone's reaction.
Yan Wenjie and Zhu Qiyun looked at each other, and both saw worry in each other's eyes.
"How is it, what did you find out?"
The old lady Yan looked at her grandmother anxiously.
Sun’s mother hesitated, and told the old lady Yan what she had just heard in the main courtyard.
After hearing this, the old lady Yan patted her thigh fiercely with anger: "This Nizi, Nizi!"
Sun's mother did not dare to speak at this time, and stood silently.
After a while, Mrs. Yan sighed: "I thought, before I stepped into the coffin, this family can stay indifferent, but now."
The eyes of the old lady Yan slowly turned red, and the child's father died early. The family has come to this day relying on mutual support. She thought that the three brothers could go on hand in hand forever, but after all, she had extravagant hopes.
She can’t let her second child keep the boss down!
The old lady Yan wiped away the tears from her eyes, her eyes gradually became firmer: "Go, call the boss, the second, and the third, I have something to say."
After Sun’s mother left, Mrs. Yan looked at the big tree outside the window and sighed, “After all, it’s time for the tree to branch out.”
