It is said that Mr. Yao and his party went to Dongfu angrily, but now they returned home defeated.
Needless to say, the second wife has a wilted head and a droopy head. She has been making trouble for a long time and has not taken advantage of anything. She also brought back a woman whom her son missed, but she was pregnant with her husband's child.
Yao Qingjiang is also thinking about lawsuits. Where does he have money? The wine he bought on credit will not be collected until two months later. Not to mention five thousand or five hundred taels of silver, he doesn't have it.
Back at the Yao family's old house, Mr. Yao took out her banknotes from the bottom of the box and some gold and silver jewelry.
When Mr. Yao saw that my mother was spending money on him again, he was so embarrassed that he wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl in. He asked shamelessly: "Mom, are you really going to give it all to them?"
Mrs. Yao glanced at Mr. Yao and said, "Otherwise, what if we really let them go to the academy? Let them know that the Yao family father and son are fighting for wives, or let them go to the government school and ruin Nian'er's career.
?"
At this time, a servant came to report, "The old lady is not good. The eldest young master has left. He said he was going to the academy, and he didn't even bring his luggage."
"Nian'er, this silly boy!" The second lady, Mrs. Liu, let out a sad voice and turned around to chase after him.
Old Mrs. Yao said sternly: "Stop, don't go! How will you handle yourself if you let him stay? A useless woman can't control her husband and can't persuade her son, so she just knows how to cry. What's the use of crying?" It’s really impossible to hold up the wall with mud!
Mrs. Yao looked at her son and daughter-in-law in front of her, sighed and said: "I've given you all my wealth, and I have more than two thousand taels in total. The rest is up to you. Over the years, you always think that I
Favoring the third child is now fair."
Yao Qingjiang knelt on the ground: "Mother, my son is unfilial."
Mrs. Yao waved her hands and said with eyes filled with vicissitudes of life: "I didn't expect that Yao Qingshan could give birth to such a scheming daughter. My mother is old and can't fight anymore. You are no match for Yao Mengying. This is fate, and people have to accept their fate!"<
/p>
She tried her best and beat the Cui family in a fight, but she couldn't beat the Cui family's granddaughter. She didn't expect that she would lose to a little girl after spending half her life calculating.
"But there are still three thousand taels left, what should we do?" Mrs. Liu asked in a low voice from the side.
Mrs. Yao stared at her daughter-in-law, which made Mrs. Liu's spine hairy. She felt that if the old lady's gaze could kill someone, her own face might have become a sieve.
"I gave everything I had for my son. For your son, shouldn't you take out your dowry shop, jewelry, and land deeds?" Mrs. Yao said and walked away.
Starting from the next day, Mr. Yao Er ran around for money.
But after all the hard work and loan sharking, he only managed to get two thousand taels.
There was still one thousand taels left, so he had no other choice, so he went to the third master's door. He wanted to exchange half of the winery for half of the current yard, and he wanted to mortgage the yard.
The third wife, Mrs. Qi, naturally disagrees. Her husband is not good at keeping money. If the house is mortgaged, where will the three of them live?
But the third master Yao Qingqiao agreed and said: "You and I are brothers. If the second brother is in trouble, the younger brother will not just stand by and watch. The second brother will just take the mortgage."
Someone came to look at the yard and said: "It's big, but it's too old. One thousand or five hundred taels won't work, but five hundred taels can be considered."
Yao Qingjiang stomped his feet angrily, waving his hands and driving away the people from the pawn shop.

Three days later, the Yao family's old house.
Mr. Yao Er handed over four thousand taels of silver and the deed of a house to Mengying.
Mengying also kept her promise and returned Yao Chengnian's letter and Shi Lanxiu's body deed.
Butler Song was also brought here with his head covered, but he could not speak. When he saw Yao Qingjiang, he was terrified.
When Master Yao saw Butler Song's people, he finally felt relieved.
She said to Mengying: "Girl Ying, your grandmother is getting old, and I have to look for a new house. The yard is idle. How about we move out in autumn?"
Mengying shook her head and said with a straight face: "You are worthy of your trust. My second uncle also asked me to move out within two days." After saying that, she turned around and left without even looking at Mr. Yao Er.
Yao Qingjiang had experienced Mengying's power, and Mrs. Yao had repeatedly warned her not to cause trouble again. She had no choice but to grit her teeth, take her servants to move things, and temporarily settle everyone in the small courtyard next to the wine shop.
Mrs. Yao San cried her heart out, packed up her belongings, and went directly to her parents' house.
On the day Mrs. Yao moved away, she burst into tears when she looked at the words "Yao Mansion", knowing that she might never come back.
The third master, Yao Qingqiao, cursed and walked out with several concubines, and said boldly: "In less than a year, I will bring you back!"
When Shi Lanxiu got in the car, she glanced at Dongkuoyuan. It seemed that Mengying's words last night were still in her ears, "Be your aunt well. As long as you coax your second uncle, you will have a way to live. If you said something that you shouldn't have said, do it."
If you don’t do what you shouldn’t do, you should know your own fate.”
The mother-in-law urged her angrily, and Shi Lanxiu got into the car with tears in her eyes.
When Mr. Yao heard that his second and third sons had moved away, he walked around the old house. All the pens, inks, paper and inkstones in his father's study had been taken away, and the books were scattered on the ground.
The yard was in a mess, and everything that could be taken away was taken away, leaving only an empty house.
"Grandma can smile now, and her dowry is finally back in your hands." Mengying put the gold, silver, and real estate deeds brought by Yao Qingjiang into a box and gave them to Mr. Yao.<
/p>
Unexpectedly, it was his daughter who took back his mother's belongings for him. Mr. Yao shed tears when he looked at these things.
After a long while, Mr. Yao said: "Girl Ying, you are more capable than dad. Until Brother Yao comes of age, you should keep it."
Mengying did not refuse, and asked the accountant to register and create a book, and then gave two thousand taels to the housekeeper to buy grain. She knew that the price of grain would increase several times next year, and now was the best time to take action.
As soon as Liu Rui took the money and left, Mrs. Yao's sister-in-law came. I don't know why she whispered to Mrs. Yao. After she left, Mrs. Yao came to ask for the money.
"You little girl, what are you doing with so much money? Mom, please keep it for you. From now on, you can get the monthly payment from me." Then he took away the rest of the money.
Mengying knew that once the money was in her mother's hands, it would never come back.
After working hard for a long time, the God of Wealth came to pass. But she still wanted to do herbal medicine business, so she had to find another way.
When going out, Mengying ordered the housekeeper: "Find someone to tear down the walls of the old house and the east cross courtyard."
In her previous life, she and her mother fell into the water and were rescued by fishermen. Her father and others were not so lucky and died.
The mother and daughter returned home after going through hardships, and the wall between the east courtyard and the old house has been demolished.
Mrs. Yao was found to have deliberately thrown away Mrs. Yao's coffin, and was even suspected of murdering her husband. Mr. Yao wrote a letter of release on his behalf, and kicked Mrs. Yao, mother and son out.
Mrs. Yao came to her mother's house with her two children, but less than half a month later, she was kicked out by her sister-in-law. On New Year's Eve, the three of them crowded together next to the ancestral grave, nibbling on steamed buns in the dilapidated house where they originally visited the grave.
The grudges from her previous life seemed to be over, but she still had one final move to make.
It’s not that she wants to let them go regardless of past grudges, she wants to let them taste the hardship first.
After all, no matter how violent a villain's death, he is not unjust, she has patience.
