Fragrance Returned

The innkeeper went to Fuwang Jade Shop, and it happened that a man named Ding happened to be here these days.

Ding Chi came over and saw that the escort actually included Ding Erfu.

Both of them were quite surprised.

Meeting an old friend in a foreign land, Ding Chi held Ding Erfu and shed a few tears. He said that he wanted to fulfill his duties as a landlord and asked Ding Erfu to have fun for a few days and then help bring some money back to honor his father.

Ding Erfu was so angry that he punched him twice and cursed, I don't have an uncle like you who caused such misery to my father, brother and family, but I live a happy life.

When Ding Chi heard that he had told him about the evil done by Jiaozipu and wanted to rob Lilac, Ding Zhao's family had raised more than a thousand taels of silver and still wouldn't let them go. When the old father had no choice but to cut off three of his fingers, he burst into tears.

I was deceived by Jiaozipu...

The first time Ding Chi borrowed money from Jiaozipu, the money he borrowed was three cents of profit, and the second time he borrowed the money from Chu Dabang himself, he also agreed that the money would be three cents of profit...

He read the first IOU carefully, but he didn't read the second carefully because he was distracted by other things. He also thought it was still three points of profit, so he signed and fingerprinted.

After learning that the stone he spent a lot of money to buy was rubbish, he was horrified. If he couldn't pay back the money, he would definitely not be able to survive if he stayed, so he had to run away with his wife.

He also knew that a monk who could run away could not jump to the temple, and Jiaozipu would definitely go to his father and second brother for money.

But the second brother has Lilac, and Lilac's extremely prosperous destiny is destined to help them turn the corner. He didn't know exactly how to turn the crisis into safety. Maybe he met a noble person, maybe he made a fortune, or maybe Chu Dabang suddenly had a brain attack and shook hands with his father to make peace... With Lilac in the back, nothing would happen to that family.

When he goes out to earn enough money, he can pay back the money his father and second brother gave him.

Before, Ding Chi had been wondering how he and Tang could escape Jiaozipu's pursuit so easily, but now he realized that Jiaozipu deliberately opened a hole for them to escape, and then went to Ding's house to ask for money to rob Lilac.

This was a big hole dug by Chu Da Bang for him and the Ding family, and he jumped into it stupidly.

Nothing happened to Dingxiang and her second brother's family, but her father's three fingers were gone and he suffered a lot.

Ding Chi slapped himself in the mouth hard, scolding himself that he was not a human being, worse than a pig or a dog...

He sat on the ground and cried for a while, then sat on the chair again and talked about his difficulties in the past few years.

After leaving Jiaodong, he and Tang fled south to a small town called Meng. This is a border town in the south of South-Central Province, close to the country of Bagan.

Meng is surrounded by mountains and has inconvenient transportation, making life extremely difficult. From there to Dongtuo Mansion, it takes more than half a month to walk.

But jade is abundant there. Ding Chi felt that he had suffered a loss with the jade, so he wanted to thoroughly explore the jade.

I suffered a lot in the first few years when I went there. I had no food or shelter, and I was bullied. During this period, he got sick many times and narrowly escaped death.

However, every time at the most critical moment, something strange happens. Or pick up a little silver, or meet a good person, or see a strange flower. Especially when Ding Chi was about to die from malaria, he unexpectedly met an elder from the Nanyi clan. The clan elder looked at Tang for a few times and took action to save him.

Later, when I joined a jade boss, my situation became slightly better. At the end of the previous year, he bought a piece of jade, cut it into pieces, sold it for several thousand silver, and started to make a fortune...

Although Ding Chi misses his father and son, he wants to try again to earn more money and go home to let his father and son live a good life.

He did not dare to find someone to bring back the money and the letter alone, fearing that someone would run away with the money. I don't want to find the escort agency in Dongtuo Mansion, it's too expensive. I just thought that if the escort agency from Linshui County came to Central South Province to inquire about Chu Da Bang, and then bring some money back to the master...

Unexpectedly, Linshui County has undergone earth-shaking changes. Chu Da's stick has been cut off, and his brother's family not only opened an embroidery shop, but also opened an ironworks manufacturing business.

Ding Chi was moved to tears again when he heard that his second brother's family treated Li Lai as well as his own son, and that Ding Zhao had made a promise to his son when the family was divided.

I'm not a human being. I'm selfish. I'm more than ten ways behind my second brother. I don't blame my father for liking him...

Ding Erfu couldn't help but said, In terms of life, the second uncle is indeed much better than the fourth uncle. There are also the second aunts, Xiangxiang, Lichun, and Liren. They all regard Li Lai as a family and do not let him suffer. It’s a bit bitter. I’ve traveled all over the country and seen so many people and things, and it’s almost impossible to find someone as kind as my second uncle.”

Ding Chi sobbed and said, That's why God gave his family Xiangxiang. I thought that with Xiangxiang, nothing big would happen to the family, but I didn't expect that my father still lost three fingers... Wuwuwu...

Ding Erfu felt that Ding Chi was not responsible before and now he is like a girl. What left him speechless the most was that a man of several decades actually entrusted his fate to a teenage girl. What does it mean that nothing will happen if you have Xiangxiang?

He frowned and said, Why are you crying? I knew it was not easy for the second grandfather, so I hurried home to be filial to him. The second grandfather is also in his fifties.

Ding Chi sniffed and wiped his tears, saying that he had a jade farm in Meng, a jade shop in Dongtuo Mansion, and some silver was confiscated from the buyers. It would take a year or two to deal with it. When these things are over, he will return to his roots, return to his hometown to honor his father, and apologize to his second brother...

Ding Chi invited Ding Erfu to the Fuwang Jade Shop he opened in Dongtuo Mansion.

The jade shop is very large, bigger than Ding Zhao's Jiulu Zhixiu Pavilion, and there are all kinds of jade ornaments inside. Business is also very good, not only individual customers, but also businessmen traveling from north to south who want to purchase goods in large quantities.

Tang's was there too.

She always thought that her son would live with her parents, but she didn't expect that he would be raised by his father-in-law and second uncle's family and live a very happy life. When she left, her son was only as tall as her belly, and he is now studying in a private school.

Tang also shed tears when she heard about the family's previous predicament and Ding Zhao's promise to Ding Lilai when the family was separated.

Ding Chi and his wife begged for a long time, but Ding Erfu insisted not to bring them letters or money, and also refused the gifts they gave him.

What Ding Erfu couldn't tell Ding Xiang was that Ding Chi initially said he would bring 1,500 taels of silver to his father and 200 taels of silver to the Tang family and the Guo family respectively. After hearing about those family members, I felt guilty and sad before my father raised the price to three thousand taels.

Mrs. Tang said, Brother Chi, didn't you say that our family has more than 30,000 taels of silver? Why don't you bring more money to your father-in-law and second uncle? They first helped you pay back more than 1,000 taels of silver, and your father-in-law is disabled again. , my son has been raised by them.

Ding Chi blushed, frowned and said, Xiangxiang is more blessed than you. My second brother's family must be richer than ours. Compared with them, we are poor. If we give you too much money, they won't take it.

Ding Erfu despised Ding Chi's pickiness. It's impossible for him not to be unclear about the accounts that Tang had already settled. He just didn't want to give him more money, and he still had to argue with Xiangxiang.

No matter what, this fourth uncle is not as generous and generous as the second grandfather and second uncle, which is boring.
