Next, the atmosphere in the carriage became a little heavy, and the little brothers each had their own thoughts.

Wang Qi was thinking of Wang Qinghan, the third wife in the family, the richest head of the clan. Wang Qinghan had a close relationship with the clan, and Wang Qi was also familiar with him.

In his opinion, Wang Qinghan has always been arrogant because of his wealth and confidence. Now he is trying every possible means to give his sister-in-law to his clan brother as a concubine. This is really surprising.

Concubines are just toys. The more well-behaved a family is, the lower their status is.

Since Wang Qing's Hanyue family is a wealthy businessman in Hanyang, the dowry for his sister-in-law must be very expensive. Instead of finding a decent family to be a serious couple, they go to work and give her a son as a concubine. Isn't this despicable?

Uncle Hong has a good-looking appearance, and he looks like he is no more than thirty years old. He is very attractive. Did he go to the third room to socialize, and was attracted by the younger sister of the third room?

Wang Qi was older after all. After thinking about it carefully, he thought of the important point.

The third family member is rich but has no power. He has always been close to the clan clan, and his sister-in-law often follows her elder sister to the clan clan as a guest.

I seem to have heard the eldest uncle mention that Mrs. Han once inquired about the affairs of the second uncle's family in Beijing. When she found out that one of the two cousins ​​from the second uncle's family had already started a career, got married and had children, and the other had also entered the Imperial College, Mrs. Han even praised her.

Like again.

Now that I think about it, have these sisters targeted the clan house before?

Wang Qi touched his chin, feeling confused for the first time. If he has money but no power, does he feel uneasy?

Dao Chi was also thinking about this. He had heard of the name of Wang Qinghan, the Third-Fang Wang, before he inherited the Ninth-Fang.

When the patriarch Taiye mentioned in Xishan Temple that the members of the Duansi clan included Wang Qinghan.

In terms of bloodline distance, the inner clan members are all close relatives, which are of course closer to the outer clan members than the outer clan members. It is appropriate to choose the third clan member based on the closeness of the bloodline.

The old monk did not choose the third house, not only because Wang Qinghan was engaged in business, but also because he was too close to the Yue family. The two businesses were often mixed together, and even the business in Jiangnan and Guangzhou had shares in the Yue family.

Wang Qinghan lost two wives in a row and remarried his aunt twice. There were human feelings and more interests involved.

The old monk didn't need to guess to figure out that no matter who was the heir or daughter-in-law of the third wife, she would be chosen from Mrs. Han's natal nieces and no one else.

After all, the Wang family is a serious gentry family, and Mrs. Han's mother-in-law is an authentic businessman. A daughter raised by such a family may become a virtuous housekeeper in an ordinary family, but for Taoist idiots who are interested in becoming an official, not only will they not be helpful, but they will become a drag.

.

In addition to thinking about Wang Qinghan's desire to cling to the Twelfth Fang, Dao Chi also thought about the clan's "attention" to the Third Fang.

Although Wang Qi said that he "tried every possible means" to find out, how could a young man easily find out about such private matters?

The source of his information is mostly within the clan house.

The loss of the third brother's heir is not a big deal for the clan. No matter whether he chooses an heir or does anything, the third brother cannot get past the clan.

In this way, is the "attachment" of the third house to the twelfth house also to guard against the clan house?

Regarding the day when he passed away from the twelfth house and moved to the ninth house, what impressed him the most was the fact that he "donated three cents of every ten cents of his family property."

Regarding the property of a poor family like the Waijiufang, only the Waishifang, who is living in more embarrassment, would care about it. The clan and the inner house are completely dismissive of this property; but the property of the Sanfang is rumored to be worth millions.

rich.

Did the patriarch of the clan come forward and arrange for his adoption to the outer ninth house, which frightened Wang Qinghan?

In order to prevent the clan clan from intervening in the selection of the third clan's heir, he wanted to drag the twelve clan members, who were second only to the clan clan in terms of power, to the third clan's side?

In this way, the "result" suffered by Wang Yang and Wang Rongniang was also the "cause" of the Taoist madness.

In Wang Sanlang's heart, he was angry and a little helpless. Although he had just said that he would not let anyone bully his mother in vain, he could not think of how to stand up for his mother. The only thing he could think of was to go home early and save his mother.

Tell your sister about this and see what she means.

But it was helpless, and he felt a little more at ease in his heart. The enemy was outside, so it was not scary; he was afraid that the elders at home would not get along, and that would be really powerless.

The atmosphere in the carriage was dull. It wasn't until we arrived at the Silver Building that everyone felt better.

In the silver building, most of the women were choosing jewelry. They saw three young men coming in. They couldn't help but point at them, but they didn't avoid them either.

Wang Qi took out a sandalwood fan from nowhere, opened it and shook it happily, not forgetting to get some flying eyes here and there. Wang Sanlang laughed muffledly when he saw this, while Dao Chi couldn't help but cover his face.

No wonder Wang Qi felt something was wrong when she just looked at Wang Qi. It turned out that he was copying Shen Hexuan. Not only was he dressed similarly, but he also had the same "looking forward to the flying" demeanor when shaking the fan.

Heaven and earth, please take away this shameful fat man quickly.

Shen Hexuan can be called "Shen Phoenix", and he is worthy of his name. Anyway, among the young people I have ever seen, Shen Hexuan definitely ranks at the top of the list.

Wang Qi's facial features are not ugly, but with her fat figure, that silly smile, and her mannerisms, she looks even more vulgar instead of romantic.

Everyone in the silver building, who else could they look at if they didn't look at him?

Wang Qi, on the other hand, went crazy, and the noisy became more and more joyful. He raised his chin and called to the waiters: "Put out all the best longevity locks you have here. We want to buy longevity locks!"

The waiter saw that although he was young and dressed strangely, he looked like a rich man, so he smiled and said: "Okay, I will give these young men a longevity lock."

While he was talking, the waiter took out three brocade boxes.

Apart from anything else, if you look at the box, it looks great.

When opened, they are indeed very delicate.

The first longevity lock is decorated with nine small bells in the shape of lotus seeds, and there is a lotus pattern behind it; the second one is connected with a silver collar, which looks simple and elegant; the third one is inlaid with the Seven Treasures of Buddhism, which is very gorgeous.

The three items are all silverware. There is a saying among the people that children are short-lived and cannot hold gold items, so they usually bring silverware to ward off evil spirits.

When Wang Qi saw the things laid out, he gave his place to Tao Chi and let him choose.

The Taoist idiot looked at the three longevity locks, shook his head slightly, and said to the clerk: "These three longevity locks are all top-grade, but some of them are not what I want. Please help me look for them again."

"

The waiter understood the meaning of his words and asked: "What kind of bird do you want to find?"

The Taoist idiot pointed to the first brocade box and said: "There should be no bells, necklaces and other ornaments..." Then he pointed to the second one: "Don't be too heavy, it is best to weigh less than one or two..." He said,

Then he pointed to the third one: "The one with embedded treasures is fine, but the shape needs to be more rounded."

The waiter listened carefully and said flatteringly: "Young Master is so attentive. I'll go find him right now."

In Wang Qi's opinion, any of the three longevity locks in front can be used. Pian Dao Chi is such a mother-in-law, so he muttered: "What's wrong with having bells? Only heavy ones can show wealth..."

Wang Sanlang was standing by, but he knew Dao Chi's intentions, and his eyes when looking at Dao Chi were a little moist.

At this time, the waiter found two more brocade boxes and came out.

Each contains a longevity lock, one with a treasure embedded in it, and one without a treasure embedded in it. Both of them were selected according to the Taoist idiot's request.

Both long-life locks are very small, but their prices are very different.

The long-life lock without treasures only costs one or two eight cents of silver. The price is due to the exquisite workmanship. If it were more ordinary, the price would not be 50% more than the weight of the silver itself.

The longevity lock with the treasure embedded in it was priced at twelve taels of silver.

According to the waiter's introduction, this is not the craftsmanship of local silversmiths, but imported from Guangzhou. It uses overseas inlay technology to make it so fine.

Seeing that Dao Chi was interested in the treasure-embedded longevity lock, Wang Qi hurriedly advised: "Erlang, the one in front is quite good... Wulang caught Zhou, and most of the elders in the family would give longevity locks, so you can wear them wherever you go.

?As long as it comes to your mind."

Wang Sanlang also said: "Yes. Yes. Erlang, the first one is very good."

The Taoist Chi said: "Whether Wu Lang wears it or not, I will always choose a good one for him."

After talking about it for one tael of silver, he bought the treasure-embedded longevity lock for eleven taels of silver.

Eleven taels of silver is not a small sum of money. But Dao Chi doesn't feel bad, because he knows that his longevity lock will not be "idle". As long as he gives it away, it will most likely appear on Wu Lang.

The Twelfth Fang has received a lot of criticism for his succession. As long as it is shown in front of everyone that he and the Twelveth Fang have not turned against each other, and the Twelveth Fang is closer to his son, the Twelveth Fang, the rumors can be dispelled as soon as possible.

Wang Yang is a smart person. After learning about the outside plot, I believe she will respond as soon as possible.

After buying the longevity lock, thinking that he would go back to the palace tomorrow afternoon and not come out until the end of July, he spent another two and a half taels of silver to buy a pair of gold lilac earrings and a pair of thin gold earrings.

This time, Wang Qi really looked at him.

After coming out of the silver building, he put his arm around Dao Chi's shoulder and said, "It's so rich! To be honest, where did you get the silver to be so lavish? Look, my uncle is not happy."

The Taoist idiot didn't want to mention the old monk, so he said: "There is some money in the dowry left by my biological mother."

Wang Sanlang lowered his head and pinched his pocket quietly.

In his purse, there were gold leaves and silver ingots, more than a dozen taels of silver. Although he had less money to spend after returning to Anlu, when he was in Nanchang, his classmates and friends went out to eat wine and listen to the theater, so they spent a lot of money.

Eighty-two and eighty-two are common.

When he arrived at his brother's place, he would spend several taels of silver using what the deceased had left behind.

Wang Qi stopped laughing and said to Dao Chi: "Even if your great-uncle doesn't keep your biological mother's dowry on your behalf, you don't want to spend it in vain. In the future, whether you are taking exams or starting a family, there will be many places where you need money.

.Besides, my great-uncle is a frugal person and I can’t see my elders being so lavish. Although you have good intentions in buying things for your great-uncle and Sister Shunniang, if you make the elderly unhappy, wouldn’t it be a good intention to do bad things?”

This is really the way some older brothers do.

The Taoist idiot nodded and thanked sincerely: "Thank you, Seventh Brother, I have taken note of it..."
