Chapter 201 202: Who can’t have a little secret? (1st update)
Xu Dalang's funeral took three days to arrange, and the process was completed in a hurry. He had never done a good thing during his lifetime. Except for the inevitable Chang Xi, his close uncle's family, and a few members of the Xu family, there were also
Not many people came to see him off.
As soon as the funeral was over, Xu Dalang's uncle's family was too embarrassed to stay at the Xu family anymore, so they could only say goodbye and leave in despair. Of course, they hoped that Chang Xi would give them some money to go home, but Chang Xi didn't think so.
Turning a blind eye, the words are still affectionate, but the actual actions are not seen.
In the end, Xu Dalang's uncle and aunt, both of whom had dark faces, returned with their entire family. Behind their backs, they often scolded Chang Xi for digging around, and then cursed a few more to vent their anger.
For Chang Xi, if he couldn't hear the barking of a dog, what about the barking of a dog? He didn't care at all.
The rest is the agreement that the third uncle of the Xu family should reach with Chang Xi. After all, the land deed of the house and so on are still in Chang Xi's hands. These were also found by Chang Xi secretly in the past two days based on Zhu's habit of hiding things. Otherwise, otherwise
It had long been pawned by Xu Dalang in exchange for gambling funds.
Of course, Zhu's things were hidden very secretly, and her family members were not given a chance to find them, so they were not taken away by the evil couple.
"Third uncle, what you say is unfounded. We still have to establish the official identity document and file it with the government. We can all feel more at ease, right?"
"Young man's wife, you should be like this."
The third uncle of the Xu family knows very well that Chang Xi has his back to the Jie family and his arms cannot twist his thighs, so it is good for everyone to form a good relationship. Besides, Chang Xi may get a sum of money from the Jie family in the future. This is what people are guarding against. They are afraid of him.
Put your mind on this.
In fact, it would be a lie to say that you are not impressed. This young daughter-in-law is a member of the Xu family for the day she has not remarried. As the patriarch, it is not excessive for him to ask for this money. After all, she has no dowry, but he is still afraid of explaining it.
If the family is powerful, if others blow the pillow wind, they will not be able to eat and walk around.
So now he agreed very readily.
Chang Xi drew up the documents herself. Of course, the things she found out also included the marriage certificate between the original person and Xu Dalang. As she expected, she only had the dowry of two quilts in her name, and nothing else. Chang Dadou and his wife
Both of them did everything they could.
Forget it, this doesn't matter now. As long as she reaches an agreement with the head of the Xu family, no one can take away the property in her name.
The head of the Xu family had studied in a private school for a few days. He read Chang Xi's papers as soon as he got it. He didn't expect that this Chang family would also bring out the dowry for the two quilts and shamelessly said that the two quilts were worth the price.
The dowry money of five taels of silver was paid. In the future, the income generated by the dowry of five taels of silver will be
The benefits, as well as the money she personally earned through mental labor, as well as the property purchased with these money in the future, all belong to her dowry and belong to her personal name. They do not belong to the property left by Xu Dalang. The Xu family clan cannot
Take it away, otherwise you will be sued to the government based on this written evidence.
Then he listed in detail the property left by Xu Dalang, including the house, the furniture in the house, pots and pans, etc. As for the fields and other things that had been sold long ago, this was also written down, and even that
She also mentioned that the two hundred taels of silver that had been lost would be returned to the family if found in the future. In short, she wrote ten pages of it in detail and made two copies.
He was horrified, and couldn't help but secretly look at the Chang family who was sitting there, who looked very pleasing to the eye. He didn't expect that she was transferred to the Xu family. Not only did she learn to read, but she could also write such meticulous notes, taking into account all aspects.
, which makes it impossible for him to find an entry point even if he wants to regret it in the future.
"Daughter-in-law, do you really want to write in such detail..." He still tried to struggle, trying to leave a window for him to change his words in the future.
Chang Xi smiled and said, "Third uncle, writing like this is to protect my relationship and interests with the Xu family. It is a good thing for all of us. In this way, you can trust me, and I can naturally trust you.
Right?"
The third uncle of the Xu family laughed twice, "After all, we are all one family, how can we not be worried?"
Forget it, the benefits of five taels of silver were gone, and he simply handed over all the property left by Xu Dalang to the clan, which also saved the clansmen from coming here to carry things and eat out the family, so he simply didn't take away the money that Xu Dalang had left to live in the future.
.
With this thought in mind, he signed his name generously.
When Chang Xi saw this, she was truly relieved. Now her property was saved.
After drying the ink, she handed one of the copies to Huniu, "Take it to the government for filing."
Strike while the iron is hot to avoid a long night of nightmares.
The third uncle of the Xu family just smiled and said nothing. This Chang family is really thoughtful and a smart man. "Dalang's wife, if my old bones are needed in the future, you have to say something. Dalang is gone, and the family
I still take good care of you."
"Then I would like to thank my third uncle here. Don't worry, I will definitely have to trouble you in the future."
Chang Xi also smiled very kindly, and there was the evil couple Chang Dadou here. If he knew that she had become a widow and had a tea brick workshop that laid golden eggs, he would definitely have misguided ideas. When the time comes, he would definitely have to kill the Xu family.
Only people like my uncle took action to suppress it.
So at this time, she also hinted that she would definitely give him benefits in the future, to win over the old man first.
The third uncle of the Xu family naturally heard the implication, and knew in his heart that Mr. Chang still had uses for him, so the expression on his face was quite kind, just like a real elder.
After Huniu came back and said that everything was done, Chang Xi happily handed over the land deed and keys of the house to the third uncle of the Xu family, officially handing over these things, then took Huniu and turned around and left.
She took revenge on all the people who caused the original Chang San'e to lose her life, which was regarded as revenge for this poor girl.
After riding her horse, she looked back at the dark house in the afterglow of the setting sun, and said silently, "San'e, go and be reincarnated. There is nothing here worthy of your nostalgia."
Turning her head again, she waved her riding whip lightly, and the horse started to trot, carrying her away from here.
Everyone in the alley saw the woman in plain clothes riding away on a horse. The young woman had envy in her eyes. It seemed that becoming a widow was not so bad. Then she was slapped on the back by her mother-in-law.
"Are you still watching? When you see someone riding a horse, you kick your legs and don't even look at what kind of person you are? Can you compare with others?"
The light in the young woman's eyes dimmed, and she turned around and started doing the housework that would never be finished. Yes, comparing goods has to be thrown away, and comparing people to others can lead to death.
Chang Xi seemed to hear or not hear, but in short, she never looked back.
It was already dark when she returned to the Tea Brick Workshop, and the crowds of people coming and going greeted her enthusiastically. Seeing the smoke of fireworks and the busy workshop, she felt instantly good.
As soon as she got off the horse, she saw Xie Jin waiting for her on the corridor. She didn't expect to see him first when she returned to the workshop. She was in a good mood at the moment, so she smiled at him and said, "Master Xie Jiu, here he is.
Has it been a long time?"
"No." Jie Jin ignored the coolness around him and spoke lightly. Seeing the smile between her eyebrows, his previously sinking heart suddenly rose, and a bit of a smile appeared on his face.
The two of them did not mention Xu Dalang, who was off-putting, but talked about some happy things.
Chang Xi heard that the Jie family agreed to the conditions for her departure. Although she was not surprised, it saved the back-and-forth. The smile on her face became even bigger this time. "When Xu Dalang passes the first seven days, I will go back to the Jie family to get it."
Baggage left."
Hearing her mention Xu Dalang's name, the smile on Xie Jin's face froze. She really hated this dead man and didn't want him to appear in her life at all. It was just that he had no time to participate in her previous life, so she could only let this
The dead person took her husband's name.
Chang Xi didn't pay too much attention to his emotions, so she didn't realize that he was jealous.
Seeing her bright eyebrows, he sighed secretly. There was no point in being jealous like this. The key was that they didn't notice it at all, so it was even more pointless.
"Although the other courtyard is in the name of the Jie family, it belongs to me privately. If you leave the Jie family, you can live there temporarily..."
"No need." Chang Xi refused immediately. Since the wife's contract was over, it had to be ended cleanly. There was no need to be sloppy. So she pointed to the already built houses in the back, "I marked a mark for myself over there.
Residence, I’ll live there temporarily for a while.”
She has a pursuit of life, and it is impossible to live in this workshop for the rest of her life. Building a pleasant place for herself is also one of the small goals to be achieved.
Xie Jin looked in the direction she was pointing. He couldn't see any clues from here. But he didn't expect that when she chose this place to build the workshop, she had already chosen a retreat. It turned out that she had planned to leave Xie Jin so long ago.
When I got home, I suddenly started to feel depressed again.
Chang Xi noticed that his mood was a little depressed at this moment, so he asked with concern, "What's wrong with Mr. Jie Jiu?"
"Nothing." He couldn't express what he was thinking.
Chang Xi looked at him for a while and didn't ask any more questions. People are always willing to talk when they are in a bad mood. She listened. If she didn't want to, she wouldn't force it. Who can't have a little secret?
Not to mention their awkward status, even husband and wife should give each other some breathing space.
At this moment, Xiao Tao came over cautiously and said, "Master Jiu, Madam Chang, the meals are ready, do you want to use them now?"
When mentioning meals, Chang Xi realized that her stomach was growling with hunger, so she said, "Put it on immediately. I haven't had a good meal in the past few days, and I really need this energy now."
When Xie Jin heard this, he cursed in his heart that he shouldn't have dragged her here to talk. He thought that if he came to Xu's family for a funeral, there wouldn't be anything good to eat. He must have suffered a lot in the past few days. No wonder she seemed to have lost a lot of weight.
"Let's go get something to eat first."
Seeing him striding forward, Chang Xi smiled and quickly followed.
After Xu Dalang's first seven days, Chang Xi changed out of her plain clothes and put on her regular clothes. As soon as she left the workshop gate, she saw Xie Jin sitting in the carriage waiting for her.
She didn't show any pretense, she just threw the riding whip to Huniu, and then took Xiao Tao onto the carriage.
Chapter completed!
