Chapter 175

When the old lady heard this, she was speechless for a moment.

Logically speaking, the family is not separated, and the eldest son has difficulties in the capital, so it is understandable to go back to his hometown. The palms and backs of his hands are flesh. If she is a mother, she will be opposed directly, it will probably hurt the boss's heart.

But emotionally, the eldest family has settled in the capital for so many years, and the ancestral property and sacrifice fields have already subconsciously belonged to Chu Caijun. If she nodded, wouldn’t she have to take out part of the ancestral property and sacrifice fields and crops to support the eldest family?

In addition, the ladies and young men at home are now at the age of marriage, which one is not money?

If so much expenses are all paid by them, what will life be like?

Countless thoughts flashed through the old lady's mind, but in the blink of an eye, she hesitated and said: "Okay..."

Before he finished speaking, Chu Caijun secretly pinched her hand, which made her feel painful.

The old lady was about to say something, and she turned a corner: "But, I'm afraid that your family will not be able to live in this country life. I've seen it too. The people raised in the capital are all precious in gold and jade, and Jiaojie'er and Shanjie'er are not ordinary ladies."

When the old lady opened her head, Chu Caijun and Zhou were easier to speak, and the couple complemented each other.

"Yes, brother, let's not talk about anything else, just say that the guys are studying and they can't hire any reliable men when they go to the countryside. How can I do if I delay my studies?"

"Besides, sisters want to talk about marriage, should I go to the countryside to get married?"

Chu Cailiang was very clear in his heart, but he pretended not to know it on his face. He shook his head and said, "That's not the case. The rice, pearls and rice in the capital are hard to live. In the early years, I also sponsored many clans. Not to mention distant relatives, but even my second brother's family and mother's mother's family, I have helped me a lot. Now I am in a downturn and I don't ask for food when I return to my hometown. I don't care about my brothers and sisters' affairs. Even if I have to care about it, I have to live first. Besides, what I do is the money from the public."

Chu Cailiang has been in the officialdom for many years, and even though he has never been up or down, he has seen the world. He speaks well and blocks the rebuttals of the old lady, Chu Caijun and Zhou.

The old lady couldn't help but refuse, and Chu Caijun didn't want to break up with her elder brother. After all, Chu Junlan will be the prince's concubine in the future, and he still hopes to have a chance to get involved, so he had to secretly pinch Zhou again.

Zhou was naturally happy to be this one: "Brother Uncle said this. Although you have helped a lot over the years, but the sky is high and the road is far away, how much have you been filial to your mother? Not to mention anything else, my mother is old and in poor health, and it is also a disaster or eight difficulties. Every time I take shit and urine, it is not our couple who are working hard? My brother gave some money to be filial to my mother, but it has not been in our pockets. Could it be that my brother still thinks that he will not pay the money or work hard?"

Chu Cailiang lowered his face: "Brother and sister-in-law, let's go through this."

"What's the matter? There are so many people in your family. Is it not enough to ask us to help you raise your son and daughter when you go to the countryside, and you also have to support your servants? People say that the Qing magistrate has been 100,000 silver in snowflakes in three years. My uncle must have had a lot of money in the past few years, right? I think it's definitely not just the ones you know about for your mother.

"The Chu family has not yet separated. The eldest brother's money is the Chu family's money. We brothers and sister-in-law have not told our elder brother that you should hand over the money to Gongzhong. Instead, you said you would bring the whole family to eat and drink for free, which is too shameless!"

"Okay, Zhou!" Chu Caijun felt secretly happy and scolded Zhou in anger.

Zhou rolled his eyes and closed his mouth. As far as he said this, Chu Cailiang should be unable to extricate his face and went back to the countryside, right?

Chu Cailiang's heart was already cold and he said indifferently: "Forget it, forgot, forgot, I am the eldest brother, and it is not easy to argue with my younger brother and sister, and I can't calculate how much money I spent on eating and drinking for free. Since you two plan to take your mother back to your hometown to live by yourself, if you don't welcome our family, I won't bother you."

Standing up, Chu Cailiang said tiredly: "Today, Ma Yanlingchi, Wang's beheading, the emperor has finished it. Our family must be present to watch. If you don't go, there will be endless troubles. You are ready. After seeing the execution, you can set off and go back."

After saying that, he turned around and left the front hall with heavy steps.

Seeing that someone had gone away, the old lady, Chu Caijun and Zhou were relieved for a moment.

"Thanks to your smart wife, you are smart." Chu Caijun smiled and pinched Zhou's cheek, "If you hadn't snatched me, I'd see my elder brother would have followed us to go back to his hometown."

Zhou glanced at the old lady's face and saw that she was not unhappy. She said, "I am also wise. The family's land is not much. In addition to the brothers and sisters at home, they also have to live a good life for their mother. If the elder brother and his family go there, we may not be able to fill our stomachs even if we eat pickles."

The old lady felt much more comfortable when she heard this. The eldest son was indeed not liked by her. It would be better not to live in the same place.

Thinking of this, the old lady smiled and shook her head and said, "Forget it, that's it. After packing up her things, we'll leave quickly so that your elder brother won't regret it. But if you bring the girls and concubines at home to us and cry, do you think I'm a mother and really can't let him go back?

"That's all." Chu Caijun also urged Zhou, "You should also ask our children to clean up as soon as possible."

"Oh." Zhou nodded and quickly walked out.

The old lady and Chu Caijun walked up the yard while sighing at the danger of the capital.

"A such a big official will disappear if he says he is gone. His life is like a mustard of grass. He will kill him if he says he is killed. The capital is too dangerous. If nothing happens in the future, I don't want to come."

"Yes, I'm too..." Chu Caijun paused slightly and suddenly realized, "Mom, did we say we wanted to go back to our hometown at the beginning?"

The old lady was stunned for a moment, and she seemed to have really said nothing!

Chu Caijun blinked, how did things develop into what they were going back to their hometown? Why couldn't he remember?

The old lady said, "It's not a big deal. We're planning to go back anyway. Let's leave today and leave today."

"My mother said it right."

The two of them walked away while talking.

In the outer courtyard, Liang Hui arrived at the study room soon: "Master, the second master and the others are already packing their luggage."

Chu Cailiang nodded and sneered in his heart, then asked, "Have you ever asked about Brother Ting'er's situation?"

"I asked. The third lady said that the eldest young master is fine and he is still asleep now."

Chu Cailiang then breathed a sigh of relief: "Sister Lan said Brother Ting'er is fine, that's really okay."

Unexpectedly, he has nothing now and will have to rely on his former least favorite children in the end.

Chu Junlan changed the veil on Chu Huating's head and turned around to tell Baole: "The execution is carried out at noon. Later, the whole family will say that they will go to the Wumen Gate to observe the execution. Brother, you should take care of it. If you get hot, you should use the strong wine I prepared to wipe your body in time. If there is anything, you can arrange someone to come to the execution ground to find me immediately, do you know?"

"Yes, the third lady is at ease, the younger one knows." Baole patted his chest and promised.

As Chu Junlan thought, but for a long time, a servant came to pass the message: "Miss Three, the mule cart is ready, Master, please go out together."
