Oiran son

Ouyang Chen's eyelids twitched. The housekeeper was reminding him not to be obsessed with regrets, otherwise, the Ouyang family would fall into the hands of Ouyang Xuan's mother and son.

A man should build a career with his own ability, instead of coveting the family wealth left by his ancestors.Ouyang Chen felt that relying on his own ability, he could earn a fortune without relying on his father's shadow. This must be the reason why he had the confidence to resist his father.

However, now the steward's words reminded him that he could not let his mother's dowry fall into the hands of outsiders.

In fact, apart from his own military talent, Ouyang Xiujie was able to change from a school lieutenant to a well-known general today, largely due to the support of his mother's family, the Murong family.

This is also one of the reasons why Ouyang Xiujie has never dared to take Ouyang Xuan's mother and son home.Even though the Murong family is not what it used to be today, the foundation is still there, and Ouyang Chen is also up to the task, and now he is valued by Emperor Jing even more for being on the backing of Zhu Xu.

If Ouyang Chen hadn't insisted on being with Luo Yun and obeyed Ouyang Xiujie's order to marry a wife and have children, Ouyang Xiujie would not have taken his youngest son, mother and son back in a fit of anger.

"I'm going to find my father now, will it disturb his rest?"

After pondering for a while, Ouyang Chen pointedly asked the housekeeper.

Thinking that he had convinced Ouyang Chen, the housekeeper quickly said, "No, the second lady should rest in the room now. If the master sees you, he will be very happy."

Saying that, he will personally lead Ouyang Chen to the study to find Ouyang Xiujie.

"Butler, it's good to find you. There is something wrong with the accountant." At this time, a servant rushed over.

"If you have something to do, go and do it. I'll go find my father." Ouyang Chen waved his hand, signaling the housekeeper to go and do his own business, then turned around and walked towards the study.

Seeing that Ouyang Chen really went to find the master, the housekeeper hesitated for a while, and then followed the servant to the account.

Ouyang Chen came to the door of the study with ease, and was about to reach out to knock on the door, but heard a conversation coming from inside.

"My lord, Chen'er took care of the affairs of the mansion before, but now I'm in charge of it, does he have any ideas?"

"what idea?"

"For example, does he think that Xuan'er and I have stolen the master's favor, that I will replace his mother's position in your heart? In fact, I also have self-knowledge, just as Mrs. Murong said just now, I will always be Not as good as my sister."

"It turns out that you have been unhappy these two days because of these things? What a fool. Before, there was no mistress in the mansion, and I was away all year round. He was the only master in the mansion, and he was the one who took charge of the affairs of the mansion. Now you enter The mansion is over, and everything in the mansion is naturally decided by you, the hostess.

You, why do you love the vinegar of a dead man?All these years, you have been with me and educated Xuan'er well.The Murong family is kind to me, but over the years, I have repaid all the favors. You don't have to take what she said, anyway, now you are the mistress of this family. "

"My lord, thank you. I am willing to give Xuan'er a name so that he can recognize his ancestors. Maybe he is not as capable as Chen'er, but he will definitely spread the branches and leaves for the Ouyang family, so that the master and grandchildren will be full." of."

"That would be the best. Chen'er has let me down too much. The Ouyang family's future hopes are all pinned on Xuan'er."

Hearing this, Ouyang Chen's bushy eyebrows frowned, and a haze flashed in his eyes. The previous thought of reconciling with his father had disappeared without a trace.Just as he was about to turn around and leave, he heard Guan Huilan's voice again.

"By the way, master, the account books of the silk shops and grain shops in the east of the city."

"Any questions?"

"There is no problem, but I found that the accounts of those stores were missing. I heard from the housekeeper that part of the family's expenses came from the income of those stores. If I don't know the specific accounts, it is difficult for me to let The balance of payments at home."

"The account books of those stores should all be with Chen'er. Those stores are Yi'er's dowry, and Chen'er is usually in charge of them. How about this, when he arrives, I'll tell him, Let him hand over the account book and let you take care of it together."

"Thank you sir."

Hearing that Guan Huilan had put his mind on her mother's dowry, Ouyang Chen laughed angrily, clenched his sleeves into fists, wishing he could rush in and slap that desperate woman.

no!Now that woman is his stepmother on the list, if he, a big man, really does something to her, he will definitely be stabbed in the back.Being accused of filial piety because of a poisonous woman is simply not worth the loss.

Taking a deep breath, suppressing the urge to beat someone, Ouyang Chen left angrily.

"Aunt!" Turning around, she saw her aunt, whom she hadn't seen for a long time, standing not far in front.Seeing her ugly face, she knew without asking, she also heard the conversation between her father and that woman in the room just now.

Ye Qinghua waved his hand to signal Ouyang Chen to move away, then walked to the door and raised his hand to knock on the door.The nephew is a man and a junior, so it's not easy to argue with that woman, but she doesn't have that kind of scruples anymore.

"Ouyang Xiujie, open the door, I have something to tell you."

Hearing the knock on the door, the room was quiet at first, and after a while, the door opened, revealing Ouyang Xiujie's ugly face.

"Mrs. Murong, I don't know if you have anything else to say to me?"

Ye Qinghua's gaze, however, passed Ouyang Xiujie and landed on Guan Huilan behind him, bossing her around.

"Come out, I have something to tell you clearly."

Guan Huilan was taken aback for a moment, then blinked her lovely eyes, and looked at Ouyang Xiujie for help, as if she was afraid of being bullied by Ye Qinghua.

When Ouyang Xiujie saw it, his heart softened, and he held her hand comfortingly, don't be afraid, he is there for everything.Turning his head again, he said to Ye Qinghua.

"Mrs. Murong, my wife is shy by nature and doesn't know how to deal with outsiders. Maybe I offended Madam somewhere. I apologize to you on her behalf. If there is anything else, you can tell me the same."

Seeing Ouyang Xiujie's appearance of an old chicken protecting a young chicken, Ye Qinghua became furious, but a fake smile appeared on his face.

"Looking at what the general said, those who don't know it will think that I am some kind of wicked mother-in-law bullying my poor daughter-in-law. I don't think she knows how to deal with people. Listening to what she said in the room just now, I don't know how eloquent it is. Well, it's just that you don't want to pay attention to my ex-wife's relative?

Originally, there were some things that I, an outsider, shouldn't interrupt, but I saw someone bullying my good nephew, trying to seize his family property, and no one made decisions for him. As an elder, I had no choice but to stand up for him. "

Ouyang Xiujie's face darkened, he couldn't tell that Ye Qinghua was accusing them of wanting to seize Ouyang Chen's shops, but he was a big man, and he was too embarrassed to scold a weak woman, so he held his breath in his chest. It's really hard not to get up or down.
