Chapter 8
Xie Rongzhao seemed to be frightened, and hugged Xie Xiuwen's neck tightly: "Father, I'm afraid."

Xie Xiuwen quickly patted her on the back, really afraid that Guaibao would be frightened again.

"Brother and sister-in-law are really good tutors. Sister Rong is a girl, and she always talks about 'little slut'. Is this because I'm afraid that others will think that our girl from the Xie family has a great reputation?"

Xie Xiuwen's voice was not loud, and he didn't have much strength, but it was these light words that made everyone in the room change their faces.

Xie Rongrong stomped her feet angrily: "Stop slandering me, I'm not afraid of you!"

Xie Rongzhao turned his head, and there was still a cry in his voice: "Why didn't you ask for anything from me? Didn't you snatch the little lantern my uncle made for me last month? And my aunt gave it to me. You also took the handkerchief you made, so why don't I give it to you?"

When the words fell, Xie Rongzhao's tears fell down, obviously he was really wronged.

Xie Xiuwen didn't speak, but just stared at the Changfang couple with a cold face, while Liu Ruolan was wiping her tears while coaxing her daughter.

Grandma Xie was already annoyed by Xie Xiuwen, if it wasn't for him, why would the family need to spend 50 taels of silver?
"What's the fuss about? The children are playing around, why are you wronged! But after a few small things, are you really considered a baby that others can't touch?"

Xie Xiuwen's face became even colder, and he could tell that he was talking about those things clearly, but he was scolding him secretly!

"Hmph, who doesn't the eldest son inherit the family business? It's the same reason you go around to inquire about it! Now it's just a little money in advance, so it's worth the fuss of your brothers?"

Grandpa Xie had known for a long time that this old wife was too partial to the big house, but he didn't expect her to say such a thing. Wouldn't this chill the hearts of the other two sons?

"Nonsense! I'm not dead yet, what kind of family do I get?"

After saying that, Grandpa Xie glared at the old wife fiercely again: "This family belongs to our big family. When will we become the boss? Isn't the second and third son your son?"

Grandma Xie also knew that she had said something wrong just now, so she wiped her eyes embarrassingly, not daring to say anything.

Grandpa Xie looked at the three sons, and said helplessly, "Sister Rong, go back first."

Xie Rongrong was not happy, fearing that Xie Rongzhao would sue behind his back after he left.

But at this moment, Mrs. Gao knew that their eldest room was being annoyed by the old man, so naturally she didn't dare to make any more troubles, and kept winking at Xie Rongrong, and finally coaxed him away.

"How about this, Dafang will pay you 30 taels, and Gongzhong will give you 20 taels."

When Gao heard this, he became anxious, "Father, how can we have so much money?"

Their branch has already fallen, and now Mr. Xie is still upholding some noble manners, nothing more than thinking about returning to the glory of the past.

Now Xie's family is not rich in money, the men in the family only get [-] Wen a month, but the female family members don't have any.

Mrs. Gao came from an ordinary family, and her family background was average. She said that she couldn't afford 30 taels of silver, but it was reasonable.

Xie Xiuwen glanced at his hesitant father and sneered in his heart.

It's time for the knife!
Xie Xiuwen said faintly: "I just remembered, I don't know how much the price of a Ganoderma lucidum brought back by Sister Rong last month? Why hasn't this money been handed over to my mother yet?"

The voice settled, and the whole room fell silent.

And Xie Laosan was the first one to start jumping: "Well, you boss! Your house is really good! I got the Ganoderma lucidum, sold it secretly and didn't hand it over to the public. What do you mean? My second brother and I are stupid, right? Yes, you guys can really do it! There is no way to pass this day!"

boom!
Xie Lao San is impulsive and hands-on, he kicked the stool in front of him away with one kick!

Boss Xie originally wanted to show off his eldest brother's score, but he was so shocked by him all of a sudden that his legs began to weaken unconsciously.

The matter about the Ganoderma lucidum was true. Xie Rongrong grew fat. Last month, she stole Xie Rongzhao's silver bracelet and put it on.

Boss Xie and Mrs. Gao are both open-eyed when they see money. They see that they have good things that can be exchanged for money, so they naturally have to hide them carefully.

Afterwards, Boss Xie took it to the medical clinic in the town, and because the ganoderma lucidum was not too big, he only got 20 taels of silver.

When the money is in the hands of Boss Xie, it is naturally impossible to hand over all of it to Gao for safekeeping. He lied that he only sold 15 taels and kept five taels in his own possession. Unexpectedly, Xie Xiuwen found out now.

Gao Shi naturally refused to admit it.

If the money is in her hands, it is naturally hers. How can she spit it out again?

"What Ganoderma lucidum? It's nothing, second brother, you can't just talk nonsense!"

Xie Xiuwen said calmly, "Really? Why don't we go to the Ping An Medical Center to ask? I believe that the drug boy and the shopkeeper still have memories of the Ganoderma lucidum, so they won't forget it so quickly."

If it wasn't for the careful investigation in the town this time, the Ganoderma lucidum matter would have been hidden from the truth.

As soon as Boss Xie heard that he even mentioned the name of the clinic, he knew that this matter could not be concealed.

Gao's face was pale with fright, and his head drooped, as if he was half dead.

Grandpa Xie thought he was the head of the family, but he never expected that the eldest son would dare to do such a small trick under his nose, and he was furious.

"Okay! You guys are really promising! After getting the benefits, you actually want to hide it from us?"

Hearing that the eldest son's family hid money privately, Mr. Xie was even more angry than when he just learned that the eldest son was going to sell his niece.

Xie Xiuwen was also aware of it naturally, he slightly hooked the corners of his lips, and a faint sarcasm appeared in his eyes.

Boss Xie didn't dare to lie anymore, so he knelt down and pleaded guilty: "Father, to be honest, the Ganoderma lucidum was only exchanged for 15 taels of silver in total, and my son didn't dare to use it indiscriminately. He just wanted to see if he could buy some for Brother Hui. Don’t dare to touch the pen, ink, paper and inkstone.”

When Xie Xiuran mentioned his son at this time, he naturally thought that his father could spare him for the sake of his eldest grandson.

Sure enough, when Grandpa Xie thought of his eldest grandson who was still in the school, his anger subsided a little.

Grandma Xie took the opportunity and said: "Don't be angry with the boss, even if the boss is wrong about this matter, he is only trying to make Brother Hui prosperous, which is reasonable."

Xie Xiuwen knew it would be like this, and shook his head helplessly at the third brother on purpose, signaling him not to fight against his mother.

Xie Lao San became even more angry, and laughed angrily: "Is what mother said so unreasonable? Last month, I killed a few rabbits, just thinking of leaving one for my youngest to raise and play. I was scolded by you, saying that I don’t know how to be considerate of my family, why is it reasonable that my eldest brother dares to hide 15 taels of silver now? The son of the eldest brother is your grandson, so why not my son?”
