Chapter 219: What is important is not who is in charge of the family, but who is in charge of the fa
Ever since the storehouse was robbed, the Second House was filled with gloom and sadness. Even the air was filled with dejection and decadence. Occasionally, a few servants would sigh and hurried past.
Li Yuening was suspicious. What happened?
Xie Yi couldn't stand the low pressure in the room, so he wanted to go out for some fresh air. He saw Li Yuening about to come in, and she ran over, crying:
"Third sister-in-law, our house was robbed and we have nothing left. Woohoo, do we have to go begging?"
Li Yuening, "Not really. The thieves stole money. If you lose money, you can just earn it again..."
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by a voice. Xie Fan looked at Li Yuening with a cold face and dark eyes and said, "It's easy to say, do you know how much money that is?
That is the lifelong hard work of my Xie family.
You can't earn it in several lifetimes. Everyone can say sarcastic words, but is there any practical effect? Can you return the stolen property to the Xie family?"
Li Yuening felt that this trip was unnecessary, "Haha, you also said it was the Xie family, not you, Xie Fan.
Now it is the Xie family that was robbed. What does it have to do with you, Xie Fan?
Your last name is Xie, so everything that belongs to Grandpa Xie should belong to you?
Where do you put the fourth and fifth brothers, and where do you put Uncle Xie and Second Uncle Xie?"
Xie Fan didn't want to argue with Li Yuening. He took out the warehouse key from his arms and threw it on the ground. "I remember you gave me this warehouse key.
Before this, only you and Xie Shi had the chance to go in. Did you do something?"
Li Yuening: Congratulations, you guessed it right, but will she admit it? "You also said that it was something that the Xie family had saved for a lifetime.
I think it must be a lot, so many things I can carry away quietly,
I am so capable that I didn't even alarm the ants and dogs in Xie's mansion.
I wanted to see if you guys need any help.
I am meddling in other people's business. You guys are just complaining here and making up your own mind. Humph."
Li Yuening turned around and left. The things in the Xie family's warehouse were not even as good as Jin Feng's dowry.
If it wasn't for diverting Jin Feng's attention, she wouldn't even look at it.
Originally, I wanted to give them some of the 30 taels of exchange notes from the old man, but now.
Li Yuening didn't want to bear this crime for nothing, so she turned around and said, "As far as I know, the share of the main family has risen to 8% in recent years.
Besides, the Xie family is already on the decline. Are the things you mentioned still there?
He is so good at making people commit crimes, and even the government needs to provide evidence to convict criminals.
Where is your evidence?
This time, I will let it go because Xie's family was robbed and you, the eldest grandson who is full of thoughts, lost your mind. But next time, please think before you speak.
Remember that the mouth can bring disaster. "
Xie Fan watched Li Yuening walk away, and kicked the stone slab under his feet in anger, "She threatened me?
What kind of person is she? Threatening me, what does it mean to be full of thoughts?
This Xie family originally belonged to me."
Xie Hang and Xie Yi looked at each other. When the eldest brother was still alive, the second brother would never have such an idea. When did the second brother become like this?
Xie Hang said: "Third sister-in-law said that the Xie family is already living off its old capital. Second brother, do you know?"
Xie Fan, "There are still quite a lot left, at least it's enough for us to make a comeback. Now we have nothing, it must be related to that woman."
Xie Yi frowned, "Since the third brother and his wife came back, they have been under our noses.
How can they have the time to do these things?
Besides, there are always people watching the warehouse, so we would definitely know if someone approached.
Second brother, you are so unreasonable."
Xie Fan looked at his silly brother arguing for others and said angrily, "You keep calling me Third Brother and Third Sister-in-law, but do they appreciate it?
You said you knew everything, but do you know when they got the head of the family's private seal?"
Xie Yi was speechless for a moment.
Xie Fan seemed to have grabbed something by the tail, gloating: "Don't you know everything? You don't even know this, it shows that people don't take you seriously at all.
Only you were stupid enough to help others count the silver after being sold."
Xie Yi pursed his lips until they turned pale, and then he stammered, "Third Brother and Third Sister-in-law are not like what you said."
"You can't judge a person by his face. After all, we are brothers. You actually side with outsiders. Lao Wu, I am very disappointed in you." After saying this, Xie Fan flicked his sleeves and went into the house.
Lu's concerned voice came from inside.
Xie Yi's shoulders slumped, and Xie Hang walked over to pat him, "Second brother was angry and spoke without measure, don't take it to heart, I'll talk to him in a few days."
"Brother, did I do something wrong? I feel that my family is too depressing. Mom cries all the time.
My second brother has a bad temper now and always wants others to listen to him.
Being with my third brother and his wife doesn't make me feel relaxed.
I like this kind of atmosphere and don't want it to be broken." Xie Yi felt upset.
Xie Hang, "Second brother is right, when did they get the power to run the family?
Apparently when grandpa was still alive, they did many things we didn't know about on their first day back.
Maybe it was their doing that Grandpa passed away so quickly.
Such people have deep thoughts, so it’s better to stay away from them.”
Xie Yi didn't understand why Xie Hang said that. A few days ago, he encouraged himself to spend more time with his third brother and his wife.
"Fourth brother, is it so important to be the head of the family?"
“It’s not who is in charge of the family that’s important, but who you listen to in the family.
The second brother just doesn't want the second house to continue to be unknown, he is just an obedient little pitiful one. "Xie Hang can understand Xie Fan's feelings.
Just like Xie Hang had always been crushed by Xie Zhan, now that Xie Zhan was gone, it was like the mountain above his head had been moved away, and even the air became much fresher.
Xie An has a handle in Xie Fan's hand, which means he is useless. He can still become Xie Fan's helper when necessary. However, he did not expect that Xie Shi and his wife, who were the least likely to become stumbling blocks, would suddenly appear and become a strong opponent. How could the second brother not be anxious?
"But didn't second brother promise mother to talk about it after he arrived in the northwest?" Xie Yi asked.
Xie Hang looked at the key lying quietly on the ground, picked it up and took a look. Just such a small copper key, connected to a copper lock, made many people jealous.
"Money can move people's hearts. Now the only way to clear the suspicion of the third brother and his wife is to find the account book."
Xie Yi, "What kind of logic is this? You have to prove that you didn't do this after being framed."
Xie Hang, "Who makes her the most motivated?"
"But the eldest aunt also has a motive. She used to be the head of the family. In fact, she has more chances than my third brother and his wife." Xie Yi seemed to have found his motive by weighing the pros and cons between two pros and choosing the lesser of two evils.
"It's not impossible, but my aunt is gone, and the housekeeper Xie Fang is also dead, so this approach is not feasible." Xie Hang didn't want to discourage his brother, but the reality was cruel.
This doesn't work, and that doesn't work either. Xie Yi, "Then find uncle, he followed grandpa and knows the situation of the Xie family best.
With my uncle's personality, how could he just leave the Xie family alone? Fourth brother, don't you find it strange?"
Xie Hang couldn't say that Xie An was responsible for his grandfather's death. The more people knew about it, the less evidence his second brother had would hold.
"Maybe he was hit hard by his grandfather's death. We're leaving in two days. Aren't you going to say goodbye to your friends?" Xie Hang was trying to find something for Xie Yi to do.
