Chapter 57 Widow of Xiyuan
The old lady looked at the man in surprise and asked, "Why are you back again?"

"What are you talking about?" She said with a hurt face, "Didn't you, old lady, say you wanted to take me back?"

The second lady jumped out, "Why don't you accept it? Now that you have reconciled, naturally you are not a member of the Hou family!"

Ke Yiqing refused and said, "I have already paid back the money for the old lady, why don't I forget it?"

The old lady sneered, "What do you mean repaying for me? That's because you already owe me money!"

She cursed in her heart: Bah!This shameless old guy!He even chased her away after taking her money!

But fortunately, she had expected it, and she was reasoning angrily: "What exactly happened, all the shopkeepers can testify. The world is difficult now. If you are cruel and abandon me, don't blame me for taking care of you." You sued the government!"

After saying that, she actually didn't have much confidence in her heart. After all, He Li was so impulsive that she left no way out.

On the other hand, the old lady's face darkened, and she didn't know what she was thinking of. She said, "You can come back if you want, but you have to hand over all the food you took away before."

The old lady and the old lady were looking at each other, as well as the other rooms. Only then did Ke Yiqing take a closer look. On weekdays, she was busy settling accounts and planning and didn't pay attention to what was going on in the Hou Mansion.

Now, at a glance, except for the wives who have been serving for many years, most of the servants are gone. Could it be that after paying off the debt, even families like the Hou Mansion can't afford to eat?

While she was thinking about the matter, she was in a trance. When she came to her senses, it was Zi Xing who blocked the old lady's crutch.

"You little bitch, how dare you stop me!" The old lady was furious and raised her cane again.

Ke Yiqing was afraid that this old guy would really take action, so he stepped forward to defend him: "Does the old lady not want food?"

The word "food" really pinched her sore spot, and the old lady snorted coldly, "You know better than to hand it over as soon as possible!"

Yujin was furious, but she could only do as she was told.

The grandma who came to pick up the food shook her head and said, "Yes, this bag weighs about [-] kilograms, which is enough for us to eat for ten days and a half."

The old lady showed a satisfied look, then turned to the second bedroom and said, "Since the third family has also given food, you sisters-in-law must also hand over some money."

"B-But didn't I give you all my money before?" The second lady was dumbfounded.

At this time, the eldest lady, who had been silent, spoke up, "Of course we can take money, but we can't let anyone freeload."

The second lady choked, "Sister-in-law, are you blaming me?"

"Brother and sister, what are you talking about? How can my sister-in-law blame you?"

Looking at the glances from everyone, Ke Yiqing realized that he was targeting her with this eldest lady?
"If you have anything to say, sister-in-law, you might as well say it directly."

"Third sister, you are no longer a member of the Hou Mansion. How about freeloading like this?"

The old lady also realized that the old lady’s family was rich, the second child’s natal family was powerful, but now Ke Yiqing had no money and no power. Even the remaining grain was handed over, and she had no support for a long time!
"Yes, you are no longer a member of my palace. The old lady is kind enough to let you in. Third sister, what do you say..."

The second lady protracted her tone and smiled proudly. Ever since that bad incident happened, she has never been happy with Ke Yiqing, and now she finally got angry.

Ke Yiqing suppressed the two people behind her who wanted to stand up for her, "Then what should I do according to my sister-in-law's wishes?"

The old lady pretended to be benevolent and said: "Since you have provided rice and food, you can stay here temporarily, but you don't have any share of the food and clothing in the house."

"My eldest daughter has been in the boudoir for a long time, and now she doesn't have a house of her own. It's pitiful." After the eldest lady finished speaking, she stepped back with no expression on her face.

"Yes, grandma, I think the third aunt's yard is very good." The eldest lady was also smart, and she immediately pulled the old lady's sleeves and acted coquettishly.

"This……"

The old lady was still hesitating, but the second lady covered her handkerchief and smiled, "I'm afraid my eldest niece said something wrong. She has already divorced. Who do you think you are, the third aunt?" The atmosphere became deadlocked for a while, and many people waited. She gave a reaction, and even Mrs. Dafang, who had drooped eyelids, was obviously a little proud.

Looking at the eldest lady, Ke Yiqing sighed to herself: It's really a dog that bites but doesn't bark.

Yu Jin's eyes turned red with anger, and she couldn't bear it any longer: "Old Madam, you've gone too far. My wife brought out the food, but in the end, she didn't even get her own share, and the yard was occupied!"

"Forget it." Ke Yiqing patted Yu Jin's hand and said, "But it depends on the old lady's arrangement."

The old lady was about to get angry, but she was satisfied when she saw these words.

"You are quite sensible. What the second brother said is reasonable. Now that you are no longer a member of our Marquis Mansion, it is indeed outrageous to occupy the courtyard anymore, so just move to Xiyuan!"

Xiyuan?

This time, not to mention the elders, even the juniors laughed. Although Xiyuan is called this, it is located in the southwest, not to mention that it is always damp and humid. Next to it is Huanyifang, where all the workers come and go. Boy, this is a dirty place where you have to cover your nose when passing by.

A few years ago, the old lady sent a concubine to clear Xiyuan out. Normally, no one would care about that concubine, and now she doesn't know whether she is dead or alive.

"If you know it, move there quickly."

Yu Jin broke free from her shackles, stepped forward and spat at the old lady: "What kind of family is this? Damn!"

"You!" The old lady picked up the crutch and was about to hit him again, but when she saw Zi Xing's cold gaze, she shrank, "The person following the disaster star is indeed not a good thing!"

Ke Yiqing also turned cold at this moment, "Yes, the people from Liyuan are the most popular with the old lady. If you like them, Yiqing can also put in some effort to invite them for you."

As soon as she heard about the Liyuan, the old lady's eyes showed fear: "I, I was just talking..."

The farce finally ended, but Yu Jin burst into tears, "Madam, how can you bear it? This big family looks glamorous on the surface, but in fact they are so bad! Everyone wants to harm you!"

Ke Yiqing's heart softened, and he knew that he was venting his anger on her behalf, so he comforted her softly for a long time.

"Good Yujin, let's just come here to avoid the limelight for now. When it's calmer outside, we'll leave here."

Zi Xing also had a stern face, "Really?"

She touched the little girl's head and said, "Of course it's true."

"Can you bear it?"

"Patience? When did I say I have to endure it?" Ke Yiqing raised an eyebrow, "Their hard days are still ahead, so they need to be patient."

Yujin wiped her face and started to pack up. The three masters and servants were quick with their hands and feet, and they didn't bring back many things, so they quickly moved to the southwest yard.

After finishing her work, she was about to drink tea, but found that there was not even a kettle. Yujin was about to shed tears again, so she quickly stopped her, "Good Yujin, hurry up and stop crying. Look what this is." ?”

What was placed in her hand was a box of potato souffle.

After everyone finished eating the snacks and drinking some hot milk that Zi Xing brought with him, Yu Jin fell into a deep sleep.

"Madam, what happened to Sister Jin today?"

Holding the little girl's hand, Ke Yiqing looked soft and said, "Sister Jin has come to Kuishui. She is not feeling well. We need to take more care of her emotionally."

Zi Xing was a little embarrassed and hurriedly ran to pack her things. She smiled and shook her head and let her go.
