Sign-in space: I grew rich in ancient times

Chapter 104
Gu Xinfang came back to her senses, looked at her little sister who was sitting on the edge of the bed, looking at her worriedly. She leaned forward, hugged the little sister, and cried softly.

Chen Huiyin let her cry in her arms, didn't speak any more, and raised her little hand to pat her on the back soothingly.

After about a quarter of an hour, Gu Xinfang vented all the depression in her heart, and the crying and tears gradually subsided.

She calmed down, let go of Chen Huiyin, and apologized softly: "I didn't scare you just now, I'm sorry, I really feel too uncomfortable, I can't hold back."

Chen Huiyin shook her head, picked up the warmed medicine, scooped up a spoonful and handed it to her mouth, and said, "Auntie said that you have a knife wound on your body, and your internal organs also have slight shock injuries, and you are so thin again, I guess There must have been a big change in your family. You have been worried and frightened along the way, and you have accumulated emotions in your heart. It is best to vent it through crying, otherwise something big will happen if you hold it in your heart for a long time."

When Gu Xinfang heard her words, his heart warmed up, and he opened his mouth to drink the bitter medicine. After that, Chen Huiyin fed it, and Gu Xinfang drank it. On the next day, he took out a piece of crisp candy wrapped in oil paper from the purse at his waist, which was actually space, and gave it to Gu Xinfang to sweeten his mouth.

After Gu Xinfang slowly ate the crispy candies, she said, "Sister Qiao, you guessed right, there was indeed a big change in my family, when my father went to the north to do business in July, he was robbed and killed by bandits.

When the news spread back home, my second uncle arranged for someone to bring my father's body back home. After presiding over my father's funeral, he suddenly launched an attack and joined forces with the patriarch, elders and others. Since I was young and a woman, I was not enough to support such a large family. Industry, forcibly took over all the properties under my father's name.

They also used the same reason to take over all the Zhuangzi, fields and shops in my aunt's dowry, and all other things in my aunt's dowry were also removed to the public warehouse in the name of custody.

It's called keeping it on your behalf, and it will be returned to me when I get married, but I'm not a fool, I'm only 14 years old now, and I can only get married when I turn [-]. After a few years, who knows that my mother's dowry will be returned What's left.

It is reasonable that the family has the right to temporarily take over the property under my father's name, but they cannot touch my mother's dowry. The Gu family is a big family, and they dare not do such an ugly thing. I thought they wanted to take over temporarily first, and then swallowed me little by little. A Niang's dowry naturally cannot let them succeed.

It wasn't until my second uncle asked me to get married in Rexiaoli that I guessed his vicious intentions. It was true that he wanted to swallow my parents' property and forcibly take over my mother's dowry. The main purpose was to attract my attention .

On the one hand, he drove away the able-bodied confidantes left behind by my father and mother, and on the other hand, he joined forces with people who had saved my father's life, and threatened me to marry him.

He also used the excuse that the betrothed partner was weak and sick, was in a bad condition, and needed to be happy, so that he could marry me as quickly as possible, so as to cut off the possibility of me recruiting a son-in-law at home in the future and continuing our big house.

I was under house arrest, and I was trusted by people around me, and my second uncle, my father's former confidant, risked his life to help me escape. I escaped from Jiangnan all the way to Lingwu, and the people who protected me by my side, one after another One died at the hands of the person my second uncle sent to arrest me.

When I was in Dongdu, Lan Ying pretended to be me, lured away the people sent by my second uncle, and bought me some time. When I fled to Fengxiang Mansion, they caught up again. At that time, I knew that Lan Ying might also be dead When I was in Jingzhou, I was overtaken by those people, and I realized that those people didn't want to arrest me, but to kill me.

I thought I was going to die for sure, but a young man passed by with a group of soldiers, rescued me from the knife, and walked me along for a while, so that I could see you all alive. "

Chen Huiyin didn't expect such a big event to happen to the Gu family, she said tentatively: "Although the eunuchs are in power now, they are restricted by the eunuchs, except for Longyou Dao, which was taken over by the Great Liang, and Beidi, who took advantage of the chaos and left our dynasty, the other All the ways are still under the control of the court.

And the bandits have been suppressed long ago. In the past, Uncle Gu traveled to Jiangnan and North to do business without any accidents. Is it possible that the bandits this time were man-made? "

Gu Xinfang's eyes sank, and she nodded lightly: "I also have the same doubts. My father and my mother are deeply in love with each other. After my mother was injured and couldn't have another child, my second uncle and second aunt once thought about it. I adopted my second son to my father, but my second cousin has average qualifications and is really not a qualified heir.

In addition, the second uncle and the second aunt are not broad-minded people. My dad doesn't want me to be wronged in the future, and seeing that I have a talent for business, he rejected the adoption proposals of the second uncle and other families in the family, saying that I would Leaving me at home to recruit a son-in-law, although the patriarch stepped forward to suppress the dissatisfied clan members, he was somewhat annoyed at Father's disobedience.

The second uncle was even more stabbed in his heart because of his father's evaluation of his second cousin. He himself was not liked by his grandfather because he was too mediocre, and he was not allowed to touch the family's business affairs. Unwilling.

After his grandfather passed away, he reached out to the family's business many times, and caused many disasters. It was all the mess that his father cleaned up for him, but he didn't know it yet. I think my father's property fell into the hands of my second uncle. After a while, it will be taken by the head of the clan. "

Chen Huiyin said: "I will check these things slowly in the future. As long as there are things that have been done, there will always be traces to be found. The most important thing for you now is to take good care of your body. Don't waste your mind. You have suffered internal injuries this time. The wind, cold and high fever are almost impossible to save, and if you don't take good care of it, it will hinder your lifespan."

Having said this, Chen Huiyin paused, and then continued: "If you keep the green hills, you are not afraid of having no firewood. I believe that with your talent in business, Uncle Gu's property, and your mother's dowry, you will always be able to get it back in the future." one day."

Gu Xinfang frowned, but she relaxed because of Chen Huiyin's words: "I see, sister Qiao, don't worry, I will take good care of my body."

Chen Huiyin felt relieved, then took the bowl to the pharmacy, and told her parents about the Gu family.

After listening to his daughter's words, Chen Boyu had a vague feeling that now Gu Xinfang's fate was tied to Tang Yaoling just like them, but he didn't tell his daughter this guess.

In fact, Chen Huiyin herself had already guessed this possibility at this moment. To run her own power, she lacked food and money. She has now confirmed that food is her responsibility, and money is likely to be the burden that Gu Xinfang has to bear.

At the same time, Master Mingshan, who was far away at Xiling Temple in Fengxiang Mansion, looked in the direction of Lingwu County and said with a soft smile: "Miss Chen, your first assistant is here, and there will be new assistants coming one after another." By your side, I really look forward to the changes you will bring to Daqi in the future."
