Chapter 1291 Quarrel
Everyone has fled, what's the use of issuing a death order now?
Chu Jingqi chatted with her daughter-in-law for a while, then hurried out, "I'm going to visit the third child."
When it comes to searching for people, looking at the entire Dasheng Kingdom, only the No. 1 House in the World can find people who have been hiding deeply.
Last time Le Ying hid so deep, it was someone from the top floor who found her.
Chu Jingqi ordered the third child to send the best people in the world to find Le Ying, while Xia Zihan was busy with Chu Meng's marriage.
Chu Meng's husband, the commander of the bodyguards, was the first commander of the bodyguards before the emperor. When the emperor was in a bad mood, it was not easy to arrange a wedding with great fanfare, so their wedding was held in an extremely low-key manner.
Chu Meng was attending the wedding in another courtyard. The people attending the wedding were all the young maids and servants under Xia Zihan. Commander Wei invited not many people. Commander Wei, like Chu Meng, was an orphan. They have no elders or relatives, and even their surnames were given by their master.
The guard commander used to be a secret guard, and the friends he made in the past were also secret guards. The secret guards could not show their faces to the wedding banquet. However, his current friends are all palace guards, and most of them have to be on duty. Therefore, on the day of the wedding, only a few of them will be on duty. Ten guards who were not on duty arrived.
After the two got married, Chu Meng moved into a three-entry courtyard building specially bought by Commander Wei, and the four maids who followed her also went to the Wei family with her as her dowry girls.
Xia Zihan also bought her two dowry maids, four second-class maids, four third-class maids, and four rough messenger maids, who were prepared for her as the legitimate daughters of the Hou family.
As for her dowry, Xia Zihan prepared as much for her as jade silk grass and vanilla. However, after Chu Meng got married, she was an official wife and the matron of the house, so Xia Zihan gave her some extra money to pack in the bottom of the box. .
In addition, she also married into two shops, one of which was opened as a fruit wine shop by Xia Zihan before she got married.
After Chu Meng gets married, she can just take over the management.
After Chu Meng got married, Xia Zijiang's marriage was about to happen. Xia Zihan sent twenty maids and servants to the Xia family to help prepare the wedding.
And Xia Zijiang didn't know where he learned that Xia Shiming had bought a small house and was waiting for him to live in it after he got married.
After Xia Zijiang heard about it, he secretly ran to the door of the small house to take a look. He walked around the small house twice and saw that the house was small. Compared with the big houses on the fourth floor of the Xia family, the whole house was smaller. More than four-fifths smaller.
The Xia family's fourth-level house occupies a much wider area than ordinary fourth-level houses. It contains lakes, woods, ponds, gardens, rockeries, etc. It is certainly much larger than the small house of the second-in-command.
Xia Zijiang quit.
He ran to Mrs. Xia Er and said confidently, "I am the eldest son and grandson of the Xia family. Even if the family is divided, according to the laws of Dasheng Kingdom, the eldest son must stay in the ancestral home and inherit the family's property. After the two younger brothers, They all have to live separately.”
He asked angrily, "What are you thinking? My father is still here, and you want to drive me out in a hurry. Are you driving me away, and you want to leave this house to your son? I But let me tell you, there is no way, I should inherit this house, and there is nothing wrong with your son.”
Xia Zijiang ran to Mrs. Xia Er and muttered confidently.
After Xia Shiming came back from the private school, he learned about the boy's report and hurried to the backyard. He happened to see Mrs. Xia Er unable to explain and shedding tears of grievance, while Xia Zijiang angrily accused her of being evil. The son was disobedient and unfilial, and even slandered others, so he bit back.
Xia Shiming was so angry that he ran to a little maid who was sweeping the floor in the yard, snatched her broom, and chased Xia Zijiang all over the yard.
Xia Zijiang also felt aggrieved. While hiding from the broom that followed him, he complained, "Dad, I am your eldest son. When you get old, I will be the only one qualified to provide for you. You can separate me and live alone." This is unreasonable.”
After chasing for a while, Xia Shiming, who seldom exercised, was tired. He was panting like an ox and sweating profusely. He pointed at Xia Zijiang and said angrily, "Ancestral house? What ancestral house do you want to inherit? When we separated, I was taken over by Xia Zijiang. My family was swept away and I was not even given a house to live in. Where did I get my ancestral house for you to inherit?”
"Also, when I separated, I left home and didn't get a penny from the Xia family's property. Where did I get the public property for you to inherit?"
"It's for your own good to separate you. You are uneducated and have no skills. In the future, when I die and the Xia family has nothing, what will you do to support your wife and children?"
"You don't know about the Xia family's situation?"
"Over the years, your mother's dowry has been used to subsidize the family's expenses. Even the second-class house and the two cottages we bought were purchased for you by your mother's frugal savings."
"Your mother pities you for not being able to support the family in the future, so she is thinking about planning all this for you. As for Brother Ye and Brother Hai, they are well educated. As long as they can enter the court and serve as officials in the future, I and I will support the family and build a career." Your mother doesn’t have to worry.”
"It's good for you. Your mother has been working hard to make plans for your future, but you are still here slandering your mother, you unfilial son... Let me see if I don't beat you to death today."
After saying that, he angrily raised the broom and hit Xia Zijiang.
Xia Zijiang didn't believe a word of what Xia Shiming said.
As he ran to chase Xia Shiming, he said angrily, "What about this house? Dad, this house always belongs to our Xia family, right? I am your eldest son. From now on, even if we separate, it should be me." Inherit this house, But that vicious woman is trying every possible means to drive me out, doesn’t she just want to leave this house to her son to inherit? Dad, she is unkind and has evil intentions. Don’t be deceived by her appearance. "
"Who said this house belongs to the Xia family?" There is no use keeping the house in the capital, I just want to After your eldest sister found out about the sale, she paid 12,000 taels of silver to buy it. This house now belongs to your eldest sister and we are just renting it. Unfilial son, you dare to covet your eldest sister's things. "< br>
Xia Shiming became angry and threw the broom directly towards Xia Zijiang.
When the family was separated, this house was indeed allocated to a third bedroom, and the third master asked Xia Shiming to help sell it.
Xia Shiming wanted to buy it at the time, but he was penniless and couldn't afford it.
Not only is it unaffordable, but if this house is sold to someone else, the family in the second house might not even have a place to live.
