The identity of the direct son - Xu I's prosperous world

Uncle Xu was originally suffering from cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, and it had deteriorated to a serious degree. The eldest son broke into the room and quickly killed his beautiful concubines, and then accused him of favoring the younger son in front of him. He didn't care about his hard-working eldest son, so what he did afterwards was forced by Uncle Xu. Uncle Xu was so angry that he trembled on the spot. His yard was all his people, but However, some of them were bought by the eldest son, and those who couldn’t be bought were killed. He tried to get the eldest son tied up, but he couldn’t do it. When the eldest son announced that he would bring Lao Qi over and kill him, he didn’t catch his breath. died a painful death.

But Boss Xu just looked back at him, and hurriedly arranged for someone to bring Lao Qi over.

When Xu Qilang returned to Uncle Xu's bedroom in Mingjing Hall, he saw several women crying around the hospital bed.

Among these women, the Qin family took the lead, and the concubines who knew the current affairs were not killed just now.

Qin and Uncle Xu have been husband and wife for decades, and they gave birth to several daughters for Uncle Xu and Xu Qilang, an old man. She is a bit confused, and she is not too beautiful. Uncle Xu She could neither find the beauty of a woman, nor the shrewdness and tenderness of a good wife, so when she was young, Uncle Xu did not like her, and Uncle Xu had countless concubines. Uncle Xu had no choice but to bully Concubine Ji.

But gradually getting old, no matter how beautiful a woman is, Uncle Xu can only look at it, and the advantages of the old wife are also revealed. In the past two years, the relationship between Qin Shi and Uncle Xu has improved a lot.

When her husband passed away, Qin Shi was naturally in great pain, so she was about to faint from crying.

She was also getting old, if she continued to cry like this, she might die, and Xu Qilang had to go to comfort his mother before he had time to mourn his father's death too much.

Qin Shi was finally persuaded by him, and was helped to a chair for her to sit down, and then he asked a maid who was not dead beside Qin Shi to serve her and rub her chest.

At this time, Xu Qilang arranged for people to clean up the battlefield quickly, and surrounded the entire Mingjing Hall to do the guard work, and went to arrest Boss Xu's people. After doing this, he walked to Uncle Xu's house. Go to the bed and kneel down.

There was blood all over the floor in the room. Although the corpses in the room had been dragged out, the blood on the floor had been cleaned, and the windows were all wide open, the room still smelled of blood. Xu Qilang With a slap on the ground, there is a sticky feeling of blood.

Xu Qilang didn't care about these, he just knelt in front of Uncle Xu's bed and said, "Father, my son is not filial, he is late."

Uncle Xu kept his eyes open because he couldn't rest in peace. Just now, Mrs. Qin stroked him for a long time, but he still didn't close his eyes. Xu Qilang stretched out his hand to gently cover the old father's eyes, and said, "Brother If you are killed by such actions, if your son is not filled with resentment towards him, it must be false. However, your son also understands the principle of kinship. If your son catches him, he will not kill him. At most, he will be driven away and let him go to a distant place It’s all about life, father, don’t worry. This family business, my son will take good care of it. The imperial court ordered Xu’s family to be confiscated and imprisoned. My aunt and uncle are working hard for us in Beijing. Heng... Brother Heng also returned to Beijing Now, I will say something good for us, and the future of the Xu family will not be too difficult. However, my uncle, aunt, and brother Heng have told us many times before that we should be less involved with the Xu family. The Xu family has been entrenched in Guangdong and Guangxi for many years. They were responsible for seizing power for the emperor at the beginning, but after these years, the emperor has already developed a grudge, and I am afraid that the relationship will be worn down and the Xu family will be dealt with. Therefore, the son wants to be the master and avoid it for a while Avoid the limelight, clean up the family affairs well, gather strength, at most run to the west during the season, first avoid the emperor's disposal of the Xu family, first defend and then attack, first keep the family business and then develop, I don't know what my father thinks, if my father thinks that his son You can do anything, just close your eyes and go with peace of mind.”

Xu Qilang only felt that Uncle Xu's face gradually became looser, and his restless eyes gradually closed.

Xu Qilang let go of his palm, took two steps back on his knees, and kowtowed three times on the ground.

Mrs. Qin was not crying anymore, she was sitting not far away, and naturally heard what Xu Qilang said, seeing that her son was able to take charge of his own affairs, able to hold up the beam in the family, and the heart that had been holding each other was gone. Slowly relax.

Xu Qilang secretly brought hundreds of people ashore, and then Song Wei brought some people. Afterwards, Qin Jianyang arranged for people from nearby islands to come, so Xu Qilang quickly took control of the Xu family. scene.

The people at sea are most afraid of the rampant epidemic, so there was an incident where the blood of Xu Jiaming's quiet hall was stained by the brothers. Hundreds of people died. Naturally, the most urgent task is to dispose of these corpses.

Xu Qilang ordered all the corpses to be burned, and those with family members took the ashes home, and those without family members were buried together.

Many of these dead people were women, and they were all in the yard next to Uncle Xu, then Uncle Xu's servants, and then the people from Boss Xu's side, and Xu Qilang's side died the least.

Xu Qilang also spoke to the people on Mr. Xu's side. As the head of the family, he was not willing to let them die without a burial place and throw their ashes into the sea, so he was also buried on Daxi Mountain. The relatives of the deceased are given pensions. If the relatives of the people on Xu’s side, as long as they are still on Xu Qilang’s side, they will also be given pensions. Yes, of course, the fact that Xu Qilang said that he would not kill the boss has already been passed down, so this also calmed down the hearts of the Xu family, which is conducive to the development of work.

Uncle Xu's mourning hall.

Several concubine uncles and several other big stewards were all there, as well as Xu Laosan.

The youngest Xu was cowardly and cowardly. The scuffle between boss Xu and Xu Qi that night had already frightened him. Thinking about it, he decided to take the 30 taels of silver and those properties, plus his usual savings, to live the future well.

Besides, according to his estimates, the Xu family was confiscated by the imperial court, and the whole family hid on this island. Although the gold, silver and jewelry are still there, the family business is such a big mess. Xu Qi will spend a lot of money to clean it up. Less, how much can be left in the future, besides, there are still so many people to support.

Although Xu Laosan was jealous of the huge family business, he also knew that he was incapable of managing it, so he calmed down and began to behave like a filial son, taking on the important task of presiding over the funeral for his father.

Xu Qilang had already talked with Xu Laosan once, not only to appease Xu Laosan, but also said that if he was still willing to help the family business, he would make good use of him, and because of the many family affairs and the funeral of his father, In the case of the eldest brother running away, let Xu Laosan take care of it.

Because Xu's family is now wanted by the imperial court, the funeral of Uncle Xu, a famous figure, is only solemn and solemn, but there is no such grand scene as Bai Banjili.

Fearing that the death of Uncle Xu would make the little stewards under the Xu family disobedient, Xu Qilang also wrote a letter to the stewards, stating that he had succeeded the head of the Xu family to manage the family business. As usual, he appeased them and stamped the great seal of the head of the Xu family.

Xu Qilang was very busy here, and at the end of September, the imperial court's merciful decree for the Xu family's merits and crimes also came to Guangzhou, and all the properties of the Xu family were returned, and those who were not dead after being imprisoned were naturally released gone back.

Xu Qilang received the notice, but he didn't go back to Guangzhou, but after the funeral was over, he repatriated several concubine uncles and Xu Laosan, and he himself still stayed in Xu's mansion in Daxi Mountain.

Although the concubine uncles of the Xu family are somewhat capable, and under the persuasion of Boss Xu, they originally took refuge in Boss Xu, but afterwards, Xu Qilang was very courageous, decisive and ruthless. He has some experience in the development of Xu Qilang, so he feels that Boss Xu may not be able to fight him, so he adjusts his mentality, and really helps Xu Qilang, even if he has other small thoughts in his heart, he hides them first.

Among the other big managers, the three most valued are Qin Jianyang, Qin Qi, Liu Yanzhang, Liu Lao Si, and Xiang Gaoyi, Xiang Gaoyi, Xiang Lao San. It is a family of thugs, and they don't know how to do business. Without the money of the Xu family, they can only go back to be pirates. He cares about benevolence and righteousness the most, but naturally he will not betray Xu Qi. The other two are both businessmen and old foxes. Some of the minor attendants at the funeral wanted to make a fuss about Xu Qi, but Xu Qi got angry on the spot and made a miserable mess. Naturally, no one dared to disobey after that.

Uncle Xu opened another ancestral hall from his original family, so there was no need to bury him in the Xu family's ancestral grave. Xu Qilang buried him on Daxi Mountain, with the mountain on his back and the sea facing it, which is a good place for Fengshui. Baodi, he also thought that he would be buried here after his death.

Uncle Xu's death, of course, had to be notified to Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Eleven in Beijing.

However, due to the long distance and delays, it was already October when Xu received the letter.

At this time Eleventh Lady was also released from prison, and was taken by Xu to live in her own home to take care of her health. Eleventh Lady wanted to go back to Guangzhou to see her family, but Xu persuaded her Uncle Xu and the others to go to sea. At that time, the Guangzhou government also failed to catch Uncle Xu and the others on the grounds that the Xu family had not returned after going out to sea, but only caught some insignificant people. Sin, Eleven Lady has nothing to worry about, she might as well take good care of her body, don't be tired from the journey, when the time comes, her health will be even worse, wouldn't the gain outweigh the loss.

Eleven Lady was persuaded by Xu and stayed in Beijing.

Now that the letter of mourning came to Mrs. Xu, Mrs. Xu asked someone to entertain the sender before opening the letter. I thought it was Uncle Xu saying that the Xu family had received the good news that Enzhi’s family was safe. Thinking of opening the oiled paper envelope on the outside, there was an envelope reporting a funeral letter inside. Opening it, it was written by Xu Qilang himself.

Because Xu's health is not very good these days, Ji Heng has never dared to tell her about Xu Qilang's death, fearing that she will be seriously ill if she can't stand it, so Xu is not surprised to see Xu Qilang's autographed letter, but When he learned that Uncle Xu had died of illness, he couldn't help being heartbroken and stunned on the spot.

Xu Qilang didn't write about the grievances between him and Boss Xu at home, nor did Boss Xu kill his father and get rid of him because he wanted to get rid of the family. Naturally, he had to deal with the messy family in Daxi Mountain. He didn't say a word about the business, he just said that his father was old and his health was not very good in the past two years, but it suddenly became serious recently, so he went, but don't worry Xu, he has already taken over the family business, In the future, the family business will be well preserved and developed. My father passed away peacefully, telling Mrs. Xu not to mourn too much and take care of her health.

He also wrote a letter of thanks and greetings to Ji's family on several other sheets of paper. Xu Qilang was always sweet-mouthed, and he thought about Mrs. Xu, Ji Heng, and the days when he was at Ji's family, and thanked Mrs. Xu for being like his biological mother. He was brought up by his uncle, Master Ji, who also spent a lot of effort on his upbringing. He invited famous teachers to guide him personally. He was not sensible before, and felt that Master Ji was too strict and dissatisfied. His Excellency was kind to him, so he babbled and wrote that he was in good health. Although his mother grieved for his father's death, she had turned her grief into strength and was ready to live well. She would take care of her grandson in the future. His wife, Song, was also in good health. , is a kind and virtuous housewife, and the family they formed is very happy. In addition, Xu was asked not to go to Guangzhou to attend the funeral, because when she arrived, the trees next to Uncle Xu’s grave must have grown under the sun and rain. It's been a long time.He also asked Mrs. Xu to persuade the eleventh lady not to worry, and told her not to go back to Guangzhou, and just deal with the affairs in Beijing.

The words of the funeral letter were sad, but the language in the latter letter was very lively. It was like Xu Qilang's lively appearance was in front of him. After reading a letter, I relaxed a little bit.

To Uncle Xu, he is both brother and father. To Uncle Xu, the woman he loves the most in his life is probably neither his wife, Qin, nor his countless beautiful concubines. them.

For this younger sister, he devoted a lot of affection and responsibility, so Mrs. Xu was well-educated since she was a child. Not only did she have a good literature teacher, she was also taught by Uncle Xu personally how to run a business, how to manage a family business, how to take care of her husband and children. There are also well-known nuns to teach about the rules of interests, so Xu's talents are outstanding in all aspects, so naturally he is very proud. Uncle Xu went around looking for her husband and son-in-law for her younger sister, and personally found her a husband whom he thought A good husband, everything is done by himself, and he does not leave it to his wife Qin to do it.

This is also why the relationship between Xu's and Qin's back then was only amicable on the surface, but not intimate in the dark, otherwise the elder sister-in-law would be closer no matter what.

Xu had her own family. Even when Ji Heng was a child, she had been married for more than ten years, but she was still very dependent on her elder brother. After Ji Heng grew up, Xu already had a sense of belonging to her family. , I gradually lost my dependence on my elder brother, which is exactly the same, or maybe my uncle's family business is like a snowball, and the development is getting faster and faster. He has to be busy with the family business, and he is gradually dragged down by the huge property. The relationship between the two siblings gradually faded slightly.

Of course, giving his most valued son-in-law to his younger sister's upbringing is also a manifestation of Uncle Xu's importance and love for his younger sister. Except for the fact that Xu Qilang fell in love with Ji Heng like a stubborn bull, Uncle Xu did not care about Ji Heng. I feel that my sister has raised her son very well.

Xu's relationship with her elder brother is like this, how could she not be distraught and unable to control herself when she heard the news of her elder brother's death.

The Eleventh Lady was invited to Xu's room by the maid, and Xu gave her the letter to the Eleventh Lady. The Eleventh Lady had already learned from the maid that her father had passed away, so she was very sad, but Her affection for her father is not as deep as that of Xu's for her elder brother. For Eleven Lady, her affection for her father comes more from obeying filial piety than emotional dependence and admiration.
