Chapter 314 Marrying the Wrong Person
Hu Xiner didn't know how to answer when she suddenly heard some movement from above.
"What's going on?" She and Liu Yanchuo looked at each other. Liu Yanchuo shook his head, indicating that he didn't know either.
Although the Liu family's courtyard is large, it is not as luxurious as the Duke's Mansion. The houses are adjacent to each other, with a structure similar to that of a quadrangle courtyard.
So the noise in the upper room was so loud that it could be heard in Qingfeng Garden.
"I'll go take a look first!" Hu Xiner made an excuse and ran out. When she reached the door of the upper room with her skirt in hand, she found that other people had also heard the noise and ran out to see.
But no one dared to knock on the door.
Because everyone heard who made the noise.
Suddenly, the door of the upper room opened and a rosewood dragon-headed cane was thrown out!
Then, a figure staggered out, carrying her eight pieces of Xiang embroidered purple satin skirt. The old nanny held Old Master Liu's legs tightly and said, "Master, calm down. You can't treat our wife like this!"
The eldest old lady turned around and cursed: "You old bastard have been unemployed for a long time, and none of your children are promising. If I don't take good care of them, you will lead the second house to starve!"
Old Master Liu was so angry that he kicked the old woman and ran after the eldest old lady: "You bitch, I'm going to divorce you! I'm going to kill you!"
The old lady covered her bleeding head and ran towards her daughter, shouting, "Murder, murder!"
Liu Zhi's eyes became fierce, and he quickly protected his old mother: "Mr. Wang, why don't you stop the old man quickly? Look at how crazy he is!!"
Hu Xiner finally knew her uncle's name - Wang.
Uncle Wang has a cowardly personality to begin with, and as a son-in-law, he is even more ashamed, so he is almost invisible in this family.
He saw Old Master Liu rushing towards him like crazy, and for a moment he was too frightened to move: "You, you also know that he is crazy, and you still want me to go up and block him?"
Liu Zhi scolded: "Useless thing, are you a man?"
Uncle Wang closed his eyes after being scolded, and rushed forward to hug the old man around the waist.
At this moment, he felt tragic.
Although he was an incompetent scholar, he was at least a top scholar before he married into the Liu family.
I originally thought that the daughter of the Qingliu Liu family must be good, and it was a great blessing for me that she was chosen.
But no one could have expected that this Liu Mansion was nothing but rotten rags on the inside!
It would have been fine if Liu Zhisheng was just average, as such things were not important between husband and wife. But she was a mean-spirited person who always found fault with Uncle Wang.
As a result, Uncle Wang couldn’t even hold his head up at home!
But in Uncle Wang's heart, there is still a small spark of male chauvinism!
He decided that today he would let Liu Zhi, the shrew, see whether he was a real man or not!
But although his brain was thinking well, his body was out of control, especially his legs, which suddenly became weak.
He rushed out with the momentum of a tiger, but his legs went soft and he flashed forward. In the end, he fell to the ground and fell flat on his face.
Uncle Wang dug the soil in a very autistic manner, trying to bury himself in the pit.
Liu Zhi was so angry that he lamented his own blindness: "Why did I marry such a useless man like you? And you're still digging the dirt? I'll beat you to death, you dirt dog!"
She no longer cared about her mother and angrily stepped forward and kicked Uncle Wang: "Do you know how many famous men I rejected in the past? But it's because of you, a loser, that I can't give birth to a son!"
"Oh, a harmonious family brings prosperity, everyone, stop fighting!" The second old lady advised, but in fact she was just watching the fun from the side, her feet seemed to be rooted to the ground, and she couldn't hide the smile in her eyes.
Liu Qingyi looked at Uncle Wang with disdain, rolled his eyes as if he had long been accustomed to it, and went back to his room.
Hu Xiner was simply stunned by the chaos. Who could have imagined that the house of a dignified lord would be in such a state of chaos!
Yun Qiu whispered in her ear, "Young Madam, I think this family is not as good as our Lu family. How about..."
Although the Lu family has a small population and a relatively small courtyard, they do not have any valuable calligraphy or paintings on display.
However, even when Mother Lu was mentally unstable, she was able to manage the entire Lu Mansion and keep everyone united and obedient.
At this time, the eldest old lady was also caught up by Old Master Liu. Old Master Liu had no suitable weapon, so he directly snatched the broom from the eldest old lady's hand.
The old lady's dark green satin collared shirt was scratched by the broom. She screamed, "Even if you beat me to death, you still have to pay for the tens of thousands of taels of silver yourself. Don't ask me for money!"
Hu Xin'er and Yun Qiu looked at each other in disbelief. No way? Old Master Liu and the others were actually fighting over money?
Is this still the Liu family, the top aristocratic family with the fragrance of books in the courtyard and an indescribable elegance?
Why does it look so low-class?
Although tens of thousands of taels of silver is indeed a sum that ordinary people cannot earn in their entire lives, consumption in the capital is high, and the monthly income of Mu Xin Comics Shop has now reached 40,000 taels!
Among them, the rent of the shops in the suburbs was reduced to one thousand taels per month because the eldest princess rented more, but the total rent of the twenty shops was still a full twenty thousand taels per month.
If Hu Xin'er is a business genius and has the support of the eldest princess, these numbers cannot be used for comparison.
Then we can look at the Lu family. Although the Lu family has declined, they can still come up with tens of thousands of taels of silver!
Let’s not talk about anything else, just that one thousand-year-old ginseng, the Liu family, such a noble family, simply couldn’t produce it!
Hu Xiner thought of the thousand-year-old ginseng, and also deeply realized Lu Xiang's ability to make money.
She had previously thought that Prime Minister Lu was incorruptible.
Now it seems that Prime Minister Lu was simply cunning and greedy, and his "sudden death" was most likely due to the uneven distribution of the spoils with his accomplices!
Old Master Liu was tired from fighting and stood there gasping for breath.
The eldest old lady, who had just been beaten and was howling with shame, gnashed her teeth and said, "Old bastard, didn't you rely on my family to get to where you are today? And now you are so ungrateful. You keep talking about propriety and morality, but what kind of gentleman are you?"
"Old sister, calm down." The second old lady was so happy in her heart that she couldn't stop smiling, but she said a few words of hypocritical advice on the surface.
The old lady got even angrier, pointing her finger at her nose and yelling, "Bitch! It's because of your constant flirting that our family is in turmoil!"
"Who are you scolding?" The second old lady was stunned. According to the usual script, shouldn't the eldest old lady come back with a sarcastic tone? How could she say such vulgar words?
