Chapter 373 A Cloud-Piercing Arrow
"It just so happens that Lao Jiu is back today, and I also have something to announce. My family hasn't been together for a long time."
After saying this, Old Man Miao looked at the housekeeper and said, "Go and inform everyone at home to come home today. No one should be absent."
"Yes." Butler Miao walked out of the main room with his head lowered.
The first concubine glanced at the second concubine and said: "Since we will be able to see Lao Jiu soon, we will not disturb him."
"Master, let's go and prepare." The second concubine left with a smile.
Old Man Miao looked at the two people leaving and thought it was time to throw a bomb in to find the person hiding in the dark.
Juanjuan looked at the yard curiously. There were many flowers and plants planted in it, and it seemed that someone had been taking care of it for a long time.
"Uncle, did you live here before?"
"Yes, your aunt and I used to live here for a while, and this is where I grew up as a child." Miao Jiu was not very willing to come back.
Since his mother died, he rarely came back. He was either wandering outside or fighting with others, until he met Si Ning.
She brought him back home, and from that time on, he also lived in the Si family, but he didn't want to be as comfortable as the dead old man.
So when he grew up, he brought his men back to kill him, seized his power, and most of his property.
This was the courtyard where he and Si Ning lived for a while after they got married. They didn't live here most of the time, as he had many houses outside.
But he prefers to live back in the Si family, where he feels very comfortable.
Juanjuan turned to look at him: "Can Juanjuan look around?"
"Sure!" Miao Jiu smiled and nodded in agreement.
"Songsongruanruan, Falcon, and Chick, let's go on an adventure." Juanjuan took a group of friends and prepared to go on an adventure.
In several rooms on the other side, some people were discussing something secretly.
"Have you put everything in?"
"Don't worry, it's all in."
Miao Jiu pushed open the door of the room. It was the same as when he left, with not much change.
Juanjuan strolled around the garden, but found nothing interesting, so she went to find Miao Jiu.
At lunchtime, Butler Miao came to invite the two of them personally: "Master Jiu, Miss, the master is hosting a family dinner today. Please come to the front hall to eat."
"No." Miao Jiu didn't want to see those hypocritical guys.
"Master Jiu, the master asked you not to be absent, as he has something to announce." Butler Miao said respectfully.
"Uncle, Juanjuan is hungry." Juanjuan took his hand and shook it gently.
Miao Jiu looked at the little guy and rubbed his belly in a fake manner: "I don't know who learned this from."
He looked up at Butler Miao and said, "Send some food to Songsong and Ruanruan."
"Yes, I'll have someone bring it over right away." Butler Miao didn't delay and turned around to have someone prepare food.
Miao Jiu took Juanjuan's hand and walked into the front hall. The place was already full of people, with only two seats left vacant next to the first seat in the middle.
He pulled Juanjuan towards the two seats and sat on the stool while holding Juanjuan.
When Old Man Miao saw the two of them sitting down, he spoke, "I have a few things to announce before dinner."
"Master, what's so urgent? Can't we wait until after dinner? Look, the children are hungry." Some concubines looked at him in confusion.
Old Man Miao glanced over and the person who had just spoken immediately dared not speak again.
"First of all, from today onwards, all of the Miao family's businesses will be handed over to Miao Jiu."
"The second thing is that all the money of the Miao family must be handed over to Miao Jiu."
"Third, after this meal, you can pack up and leave. From now on, only Miao Jiu and his family will live in the Miao family mansion."
"What?" Everyone in the front hall exclaimed.
"Master, if you tell us to pack up and leave, where can we go?"
"Master, why do you want us to leave so suddenly?"
"Father, you can let us go if you want, but if you don't give us any property or money, how are we supposed to live?"
"Grandfather, I don't want to leave."
The front hall, which was originally quite quiet, is now crowded and noisy like a vegetable market.
Juanjuan looked at the people in the front hall curiously. Aren’t they family members?
Why argue?
She didn't quite understand.
"Juanjuan, aren't you hungry?" Miao Jiu was no longer surprised by such scenes.
As for what the old man said, he never cared about it.
Juanjuan retracted her gaze and nodded: "Yeah."
"Whatever you want to eat, your uncle will serve it to you." Miao Jiu didn't care about this farce at all.
Juanjuan pointed at the eight-treasure duck on the table with her little hand: "I want to eat this."
Miao Jiu took the chopsticks and picked up what she wanted to eat.
There were other people at the table who were also furious when they saw him like this: "Miao Jiu, you still have the mind to eat."
"What else?" Miao Jiu raised his eyebrows and looked at them.
Several people were choked by his words and didn't know what to say.
Miao Jiu is the beneficiary, what can he say?
Old man Miao was already tired of listening, so he took out a gun from his waist and fired a shot at the open space.
"Bang."
"ah!"
Juanjuan's ears had already been covered by Miao Jiu when Old Man Miao drew his gun.
He squinted his eyes and glanced at Old Man Miao.
Old Man Miao turned his gaze away with a guilty look, looking towards the finally quiet front hall: "I've given you a lot of things over the years. You have hands and feet, so why are you afraid that you can't support yourself?"
"Butler, take them to pack their things. If it's theirs, let them take it. If it's not theirs, don't even think about taking a single penny."
"Yes." The butler came in with a group of people and surrounded everyone in the front hall.
Some concubines took their children with them to pack up their things and did not stay in the old house of the Miao family for long.
"Miao Yunshen, are you crazy?" Many of the people at the same table were his elders in terms of seniority.
"I have the final say in the Miao family. Without me, you would have died somewhere long ago. Stop acting like an elder in front of me."
Old man Miao looked at the people in front of him with a sneer.
"you……"
"Master, we have followed you for so many years, are you really so cruel and show no mercy at all?" The eldest concubine looked at him.
"It's because you have followed me for so many years that I let you leave with dignity." Old Man Miao looked at her calmly.
"Master, why is this happening? What did we do wrong?" The second concubine was already crying.
"You are not wrong, I am the only one who is wrong." Old man Miao's expression remained calm.
"Master, are you really so heartless?" The eldest concubine looked at him coldly and said.
"Let's go! Over the years, you have invested a lot of money in yourselves." Old Man Miao is not a fool.
"Okay, okay, since you are so heartless, don't blame us." The eldest concubine made up her mind.
"Chirp." A cloud-piercing arrow flew out from her hand.
