Soon, an adoption ceremony was held in the old house, and Xi Sengshi stood out from all the candidates and became the quasi-heir of the Xi family.It was the Huituo that Xi Daomao once admired, and he was really in the bag, showing his sharpness.

The eldest aunt Zhou accepted this fact calmly and joyfully. When watching the ceremony, Thun saw the inadvertent contempt of the eldest aunt towards the second uncle's family.Afterwards, I also heard the second aunt's complaint from the maidservant.

"How dare she speak falsely about the elder, you are his uncle!" The second aunt, Li Shi, couldn't accept that her son missed the great event of inheriting the ancestral business. After all kinds of inquiries, she learned about Tu En's evaluation from Xi Che, and finally found a vent. , Push all the responsibility on Thun.If she hadn't been slanderous, her son would have been the head of the family long ago.Xi Che also heard about it from his father, Xi Rong. Xi Rong was afraid that his son would be too young and angry, so he would rather blow himself up and let his son know that he was miserable, but he insisted not to tell Li Shi.But Xi Che still couldn't stand his mother's entanglement, and said Tu En's vicious evaluation.

Then the second aunt refused to let her go, and kept cursing, muttering repeatedly: "You are her uncle! You are her uncle!" In Li's view, it is really wrong for her own cub to hurt herself, and it should not be done by a junior. Criticism accuses seniority and inferiority, she doesn't care about right and wrong.

Tuen sat quietly with his hands folded, watching her act like a demon.Before Mrs. Li made a fuss and made Tuen angry, the eldest aunt Mrs. Zhou dealt with it quickly.Since then, Erfang has gradually disappeared, disappearing from Tuen's life.

Thun was bored, and Wang Lianhua, who was far away in Berkshire, wrote a letter: "Business affairs are not going well, and the Jiankang white porcelain business has also been suppressed. It was Wang Xianzhi who made the move. I think he really disapproves of the marriage."

Wang Lianhua followed the letter with more details. The two of them shared the intelligence system. Tuen watched Wang Xianzhi use his own influence to denigrate Baici for being frivolous and boneless, and used his own identity to suppress Wang Lianhua's business in Jiankang. Worry suddenly arose in my heart.

While breaking the news to Xi Daomao, Thun began to relocate the water spinning wheel workshop and the oil pressing workshop, in the name of rectifying the internal affairs, just using this corruption as a cover, and it will not attract too many people's attention.

Xi Daomao fed back Wang Xianzhi's attitude, and Wang Lianhua and Tu En knew that they thought they had made all the preparations, changed their surnames, lived apart, and slowly eroded, and only Xi Daomao followed suit.In the eyes of orthodox scholar-bureaucrats like Wang Xianzhi, it is still unforgivable incest.

From here to there, I think Xi Yin has the same attitude, Thun thought anxiously.

Thun still wanted to figure it out slowly, but Wang Lianhua took a slant with his sword, shocked the world, and sent someone directly to propose marriage.

"Little lady, someone from the old house has come to invite you. Listen to him, it's not good news. The owner of the house is angry for some reason." A maid came in and whispered, along with a kind reminder.

When Thun passed by, what he faced was Xi Yin's cold face.

"Grandfather is well~" Tu En saluted first as usual, but Xi Yin snorted coldly and did not cry out. He said in a deep voice, "Prince Bajun recorded that Wang Xi sent someone to ask for a marriage proposal. Do you know about this?"

"Just learned about it from my grandfather."

Xi Yin's face softened a little, he thought that Yao Niang was smart and decisive, although she didn't secretly teach ethics, she was not a rebellious person either.But Thun's next sentence made his heart that had just let go pick up again.

"However, Yaoniang has been in contact with him by letter for many years."

Xi Yin narrowed his eyes and said in a dangerous tone, "What do you mean?"

"The two are happy, and please grandfather." Thun replied with a smile.

"Ridiculous!" Xi Min slapped the table, and the teacups on the table were beating, "You are brothers and sisters of the same clan!"

"One's surname is Wang, and the other's surname is Xi. Grandfather, Wang Xi's bloodline has been separated from mine by seven generations, and his current identity is also adopted. The bloodline is far away, and the name is not bad. Why not?" ?”

"Nowhere! Even if he is adopted, he is still a royal family."

"His adoption counts as adoption, but doesn't mine count? My surname is no longer Wang."

"Wang Xi's son was also the Wang family before adopting!" Xi Min strode around the room with his hands behind his back, "Absurd! Absurd! I thought you had hills and valleys in your chest. Why are you so confused? You want people in the world to poke your spine. Is it even trampling the reputation of the Wang and Xi families into the mud?"

"Grandfather is serious. I am proud of the Xi family, and I also hope that the Xi family will be proud of me one day." Tu En lowered his eyebrows and flattered his eyes in a low voice.

Xi Yin was silent for a while, and gave an ultimatum: "The Xi family does not have any daughters! Take care of yourself!"

What this means is that if Tuen insists on marrying Wang Xi, then what awaits her will be the removal of her family.Don't think that this is a trivial matter. Since ancient times, loyal ministers have been sought after by filial sons. A person who has been abandoned by his family shows that his character is despicable.Filial piety is the minimum requirement of Chinese people for character.

Getting along with Tu En let Xi Yin know that this granddaughter is smart and has ideas, and she should know the consequences without his wasting words and repeated persuasion.

Although Thun would always put on a ruthless face and say some hypocritical words, her three lives were not in vain.She is also very clear that Xi Yin's attitude is firm, even if life and death cannot be changed, trying to reason with him is just a dream.

Thun understood, and stayed in his house for several days without going out to contact Wang Xi's matchmaker, nor did he send his servants to travel far.Xi Yin, who had been watching Tu En, slowly relaxed, thinking that the little girl was addicted to love, and she was awakened by him, so she would naturally know how powerful it was. His granddaughter in the next room is a smart person.

The wise man Thun was very good at finding a way, and found the freshly baked prospective heir Xi Sengshi.

"It's useless for Yaoniang to look for me. I can't make my grandfather change his mind about what my grandfather has decided." When Xi Sengshi saw her coming, he immediately shook his head like a rattle without listening to her pleading words.

"I'm not here to ask you to be a lobbyist. If it's a lobbyist, my aunt is more suitable than you." Thun waved back the maid who was following him, and Xi Sengshi, who received the signal from her eyes, also told the people around him to go down.

"Yao Niang, I really can't help it." Xi Sengshi smiled wryly, this little girl is his sister in name, but the status in the heart of the grandfather and the prestige in the hearts of the people are much stronger than him.Xi Sengshi has just decided on a title, and he is unwilling to have an affair with her, but in Xi Sengshi's heart, this is another little girl who is confused by hypocritical love and destroys her future.

Thun didn't talk nonsense with him, "I know the situation of brother Huituo, and you must have heard about my affairs from my grandfather. This is the marriage letter between me and Wang Xi, and it needs to be signed by the head of the family. I heard that you will follow the elder brother in a few days." Grandfather is studying the affairs of the family, you can help me stamp my seal."

"No, no, no, you think I'm acting behind my grandfather's back, it's impossible! You're setting me up for injustice!" Xi Sengshi regretted sending his servant away. If Yaoniang went to talk nonsense with his grandfather, wouldn't he let him follow him? Bad reputation.

"This is the contract of the water spinning wheel workshop left by my mother. I discussed with the clan before, and the clan has [-]% dry shares, and the rest of the mother left it to me. Every month, the water spinning wheel produces thousands of pieces of cloth, and the silk A hundred horses." Thun took out another document from his sleeve.

Xi Sengshi smiled wryly, "Yao Niang, you know that I am poor, but you should also know that I am poor and strong, and I cannot change my will."

"This is my oil-pressing workshop, which can produce hundreds of catties of filial piety oil every day. There is also a livestock workshop to support it. Now there are thousands of cattle in the prime of life, and countless chickens, ducks, pigs and sheep. As long as Brother Huituo raises his hand, The two golden hens of Rijinqianjin belong to you."

"Yaoniang said it nicely. Even if I can get the deed, my grandfather will be furious. I will not be able to secure my foothold, let alone my property."

"The eldest aunt will not sit idly by, and neither will the uncle Jian."

Xi Sengshi is the eldest son of Xi Jian's original spouse. It stands to reason that his biological father is still alive, and he is the eldest son of the direct line, so he should not be involved in the muddy waters of adoption.But it is not uncommon in this world that there are stepmothers and stepfathers, and Xi Sengshi is just one of them.Losing a mother and a child are destined to have a bad life. Whether it is a small family or a big family, if Xi Sengshi wants to live a good life, he must rely on his strength.

The last time Princess Yuyao made a fuss about accountability, Xi Sengshi used extraordinary means to use his strength to successfully enter Xi Yin's field of vision and eliminate more than half of his competitors.

When Xi Sengshi wanted to secure his position as heir, he first looked at Xi Yin, then his stepmother Zhou's opinion, and finally his clan's opinion.If he wants to win over the clansmen, he must open the way with money.The topic turned back again, if he had the financial resources, what would he do to fight for the title of heir.

Xi Jianzhi is also a small sect in the clan, and his son is the head of the family, so he must fully support him.The eldest aunt Zhou inspected all the members of the family, and only selected this smart and hard-working candidate who had a rift with the original family.No one can give up easily.

What's more, if there are these two golden hens, Xi Sengshi can win over the tribe to speak for him, even the patriarch, he should listen to the voice of the tribe, right?

Xi Sengshi grew up listening to the prestige of these two workshops. He once had such a dream, that one day he could own such a workshop, spend money like water, live in luxury, or even half of it.Now that his childhood dream is in front of his eyes, he can't help but be tempted.

The benefits of door-to-door delivery, the risk is as great as the benefit, Xi Sengshi can't make up his mind.

"Yao Niang, I really can't, I can't go against my grandfather's wishes."

"Oh, I also know that this matter is difficult, so don't bother Brother Huituo, I will go to ask Brother Yanbo."

"Yao Niang!" Xi Sengshi immediately called her to stop, the elder brother Yanbo whom Tun said was the most powerful opponent in the battle for Xi Sengshi's heir, and he also had a chance to get in touch with Dayin.

Xi Sengshi smiled wryly and shook his head, "Yao Niang, you will really give me problems."

"Three days later at Maoshi, Qixian Forest in the northern suburbs handed over the marriage certificate with one hand and the deed with the other hand."

Xi Sengshi stopped pretending at this time, "If you don't leave your sincerity, how can I believe it, what if this is you pioneering for Yanbo?"

"He's not enough for me to serve." Thun sneered, "You know, if I marry, I can't take these things away. If you can't let me marry far away, then I can only hold these two workshops, Waiting for my great grandfather to choose a son-in-law for me."

"Three days is too short..."

"Don't wait for it!"

Three days later, at the Qixian Forest in the northern suburbs, Xi Sengshi, dressed in strong attire and a hood, with only two entourages dressed in the same clothes as him, quietly arrived while the sky was not yet bright.Thun's carriage was parked on the road beside the woods, and Xi Sengshi went to the carriage alone and handed her the marriage certificate.

After the inspection, Thun also kept his promise and gave him the deeds of the two workshops.

"Yao Niang, is it worth it?"

"Like a person drinking water, he knows whether he is warm or not." Tu En was in a good mood and could maintain a weak and gentle posture, saluting with a smile: "Thank you, brother Huituo."

"You only have a few maidservants to follow. It might not be appropriate to travel far. Why don't you take the water?" Xi Sengshi looked at the few maidservants in costumes who followed her carriage. .

"Thank you, brother. Mountains are high and rivers are long, and there will be a period later." Tu En didn't answer, just cupped his hands, the coachman flicked his whip, and the carriage drove along the road.

A black outline winds out of the distant woods. In the twilight of the day, those lurking in the woods turn into shadows of branches and trees.With so many people and so many horses, he didn't make a sound at all, which completely dispelled the little Jiujiu in Xi Sengshi's heart.
