Traveling through ancient times, I led my family to prosperity

"Grandma, this time when we go to Hejian County, you and my grandfather will be the old lady and old man. We have written to my uncle and asked him to treat you well as long as he wants to be the county magistrate. Don't worry." Xiao Lan said. "Grandma, as long as you are of the same mind as my grandfather, you will still be the head of the family."

"My uncle is not the county magistrate for nothing. When my aunt Chunhua's emotions stabilize, let him find a good marriage for her, and you will feel at ease."

"Grandma, when you go to Hejian County this time, you must get along well with my aunt. Grandma, I'm going to give you some advice, please don't be unhappy to listen. After all, my aunt is now the wife of the county magistrate. She is a person of status and she also needs to be respected."

Cui was silent for a while. After all, Mr. Sheng was much smarter than her and soon understood what Xiao Lan meant. As long as the old couple were united, the power of Hejian Mansion would still belong to them, and they would still have the final say in this family. As for why they were left behind this time, it was probably because the eldest son's wife also played a role in fueling the situation. According to the old man's understanding of Sheng Nuo, although his eldest son was selfish, he would never dare to treat them like this.

"Your grandma, Chunhua and I will return to Hejian County early tomorrow morning," said Grandpa Sheng.

"Tomorrow? Master, won't you stay a few more days? We haven't let you two visit the construction of our farm yet." Xiao Lan said.

"What are you looking at? Tomorrow morning, I will go back to Hejian County with your grandfather." Cui said.

Since the old man and the old lady were going to Hejian County with Sheng Hong, Xiao Lan's family couldn't stay in the old house for long. After all, they still had to pack their luggage.

When they got home, Zhang couldn't wait to ask Xiaolan, "Miss, what did you mean by what you said to the old lady in the old house just now? Do you suspect that it was your aunt's idea that the old couple were left behind this time?"

Xiao Lan blinked her eyes and pretended to be dumbfounded, "Mom, that's not what I meant. How could you think that?"

"Your aunt is not a good person. She has always been at odds with the old lady. It is not impossible for her to come up with this idea of ​​killing someone with a borrowed knife. But I didn't expect that she hated your grandmother so much and wanted her to die." Zhang said, "Your aunt is the best at coaxing people with sweet words, and she is used to playing two-faced, saying the softest words but doing the cruelest things."

"The family is in turmoil, and I don't know whether the passing of the old couple is a blessing or a curse." Sheng Xuan sighed.

When a family lives together, it is inevitable that there will be some bumps and bruises. Even teeth can bite tongues sometimes, not to mention people with different personalities living together. In ordinary families, quarrels and fights are over and over, and they don't take it to heart at all. Because they all know that such things are inevitable.

If the old couple was really left behind by Sheng Nuo at the instigation of Wang, then Cui would definitely not let her eldest daughter-in-law go.

There will be some excitement in Hejian County.

"Dad, our family can't learn from the Sheng family." Xiao Lan gave Sheng Xuan a shot of prevention in advance.

"Don't worry, my daughter. You and your mother will always be the head of our family." Sheng Xuan said firmly.

Plans are not as fast as changes, and Grandpa Sheng and Cui were persuaded by Chunlan to come to Xiaolan's house. Along the way, Cui heard her eldest daughter praising the third family, "Mom, you haven't seen the farm built by the third family, it is very old and magnificent. Although it is still under construction, it has already taken shape. Now most of the strong laborers in our Shengjia Village are digging ponds for their family..."

When the old couple arrived at Xiaolan's door, Cui was deeply shocked. This was her first time to come back to Xiaolan's house. Originally, this was just a wasteland, but now a three-in-one house stood in front of her, which already had the style of a wealthy family.

Sheng Xuan and Zhang let the old couple, Sheng Hong, Chun Lan, Chun Hua and others into the house. After sitting for a while, Cui wanted to leave.

Sheng Hong was a little hesitant, "Third Uncle, I have spent all my money..."

At this time, Xiao Lan's face looked very unhappy. She finally understood why the old couple came to their house. It turned out that they could not leave because they had not been checked.

Shengjia Village is more than 2,000 miles away from Hejian County. In addition to hiring a car, one also needs to stop for meals and eat on the way, which all costs money. But now Sheng Hong tells Sheng Xuan that he has no money.

"Brother Hong, when you came to pick up your grandma, didn't you bring enough money for the trip?" Sheng Xuan thought to himself. His nephew was really a worry to him.

"Uncle San, this fare is enough, but I've spent a lot of money on taking care of my grandpa and grandma these days, and on their meals." Sheng Hong hesitated, "Isn't this the fare for the return trip?"

Xiaolan and her family discussed it, and Shengxuan went to the town to hire a carriage for them. Xiaolan calculated the expenses from here to Hejian County, and finally gave Shenghong two more taels of silver for emergency use. Of course, the act of giving money and calculating the expenses on the road were all done in front of the old man and the old lady.

After Sheng Hong received the silver, they set off. Chunlan followed them because they would have to pass through the town first to go to Hejian County, and it was a good opportunity to drop her off and return home. The old man and the old lady also wanted to go to the town to see their house.

Watching the carriage go away, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, especially Xiao Ye and Liu. However, Sheng Nuo did not come to see the old couple off. He continued to work in the tofu workshop.

After the old Sheng family left, Shengjia Village gradually became quiet, but I'm afraid Hejian County will become lively again soon.

In the evening, a carriage stopped in front of Xiaolan's house and Hu Yidao got off the carriage.

"Uncle Hu, you're here." Xiao Wen greeted him with a smile.

In the kitchen, Xiaolan was busy preparing dinner with Zhang, Xiaoting and Shen. When she heard Xiaowen calling Uncle Hu, she no longer cared about cooking and hurried out to meet people.

"Miss Xiaolan, I have almost completed the tasks you asked me to do. I am here to collect the money." Hu Yidao smiled innocently and said, "Your aunt also agreed that I can follow you to Xingyuan Prefecture, and she also asked me to take good care of you."

"Uncle Hu, you came at the perfect time. You can stay at home tonight. I will follow you back to the city tomorrow. We will hand over the remaining silver and money, and then we can inquire about the situation on the way to Xingyuan Prefecture." Xiao Lan said.

"Brother Hu, you must have a good drink at home tonight. I feel at ease knowing that you are accompanying Xiaolan to Xingyuan Prefecture. I'd like to trouble you to take good care of my daughter along the way." Sheng Xuan said, patting Hu Yidao on the shoulder.
