Chapter 256 Take the initiative
Qi Jiu still knows how to respect the elderly. Compared to the others sent by the Zhongyong Bo Mansion one after another, the sixth uncle is very polite. He is so old that he can't give him shamelessness like this, right? Anyway, he has made his attitude for his father, and he still has to give the elderly a step forward, otherwise he will not know how to be filial and let the old guy catch the handle, and then say "The son is unfilial to his father" to teach his parents a lesson.
The sixth uncle was indeed a little unhappy, but Qi Jiu, a junior, was quite sensible and did not embarrass him too much. Since he gave him a step, he also took the lead.
After lunch, Qi Jiu personally took him to the guest room for rest, and then went to the backyard. At this time, his father must have gone to find his mother.
As soon as he entered the door, he drove all the maids in the house and said directly: Father, this matter cannot be compromised. The old lady of the Qi family is obviously a threat. She has to ask for help but have various conditions. Do you really think that we have never seen the world before? If you agree to stay in the Bo Mansion, they will forget this in just two days and will ruin all your business for many years. They just calculate that you are soft-hearted and will not stand by and watch, and then you will be arrogant. If you compromise at this time, they will only gain a slight dilemma.
Slags are usually piled up.
I remember that the Qi family was not as prosperous as the Lu family back then, but it was not possible to get to his grandfather. I was a loser, and the q son I married was also a pickled product, and the son I gave birth to was also a good product. I married three q sons and gave birth to a lot of nvs, but there was not a good bamboo in these bad bamboo shoots.
This probably corresponds to that sentence.
The law of nature is circulating, and retribution is unhappy.
Two words, deserve it!
Qi Yuanwen didn't take the title seriously, and the second young master Qi didn't bother to him. But because of the fact that the surname of Du was Qi, he gave them three-pointed appearance, so the group of people wanted to dye the house.
I really don't have the ability to know myself.s1;
I know.
Qi Xiangwen is naturally not confused.
What he said to his sixth uncle was not completely fake. Things back then were his own choices, and after so many years, he had already passed his initial resentment and resentment. Over the years, he had achieved some success by relying on his own efforts to get to this position. As for whether to inherit the title or not, he really didn't care.
It’s just that the Qi family cannot be defeated like this, but it’s true.
Don't worry, if they don't agree to my conditions, no matter how many people come, I will not give in.
How could he not know how Mrs. Qi treated Q Zi? When he was a child, his stepmother treated him a lot. If he didn't care, it didn't mean he forgot.
If he was asked to inherit the title, but the whole family still stayed in the mansion and refused to leave, it would be a disaster sooner or later.
He did not forget that his second brother had always had bad intentions towards Q Zi. Mrs. Qi was his legitimate mother, so I just kept it. At worst, just like the sixth uncle said, she would set up a separate small Buddhist temple to allow her to take care of her old age with peace of mind.
Others, don’t think about staying in the uncle’s mansion.
Qi Jiu was worried that his father would be soft-hearted, and now he felt relieved when he saw that his father was firm in his attitude.
If you are busy with official duties and have no time to get out, your child will entertain you and fulfill your filial piety.
His father was a loyal and honest man, not sleek enough to deal with that old guy.
Qi Xiangwen nodded.
It’s okay. I added another sentence, he is an elder and has taken good care of me, so you should not collide with your words and deeds.
Qi Jiu smiled and said: Don't worry, your son knows it.
The second young master of Qi was very good at fooling people. He took his sixth uncle to visit the garden at home, or watched opera and married him, and told him about the customs and customs of the northern part of the country, so enthusiastic that he had no chance to persuade them to return to the capital.
Uncle Tai, although Songyong is not as prosperous as the capital, it is a pleasant scenery. It is rare for you to come once, so stay for a few more days. When the weather clears, I will take you around and make sure you are lingering.
After all, my sixth uncle is old, so how can he be as energetic as a young man and travel around every day?
He glanced at Qi Jiu who was smiling and knew that his great nephew and grandson were playing Tai Chi with him. He sighed and said: Xiaojiu, do you think it is too much for Uncle Tai to ask your father to go back to Chengjue and support your grandmother and family with family?
Qi Jiu still laughed. My father made his own decisions. I am just a junior and dare not speak nonsense.
This kid is so slippery, he is really like a fox.
The sixth uncle smiled bitterly, his expression was a little distant. I asked your father to go back not for myself. To be honest, I am a half-tied person who has been buried in the soil. I have enjoyed the blessings he deserves in this life. What other extravagant wishes can I have? It's just for the Qi family. Your father suffered a lot of grievances in the Marquis' Mansion in his early years, and I know that. For so many years, the Qi family ignored him, but now he asks him to support the Qi family's lintel and provide a large group of unscrupulous descendants with pleasure. It is indeed a difficult task.s1;
Qi Jiu raised his eyebrows and said nothing.
The sixth uncle silently and said: In the early years, I was a little prejudiced to your mother, thinking that it was her who delayed your father's future. Your father has been stepping from a county magistrate to a prefect now in Songyi over the years. I think she has supported her. At the beginning, I was too narrow-minded.
Qi Jiu still didn't answer the conversation.
I thought about it carefully this day. What you said to your father that day was not unreasonable. When the Qi family reached this point, there were too many people who were idle. They were not enterprising and would only seek pleasure. If they were allowed to stay in the uncle's house, it would sooner or later become a disaster.
The sixth uncle Shen y, let's do this. Your father gave up the title and distributed most of the family property. Now your second uncle returns the title to him, and he gives your second uncle one hundred percent of the property, and then buys him a house so that their family can have a place to live, so that they will not owe each other in the future. How about it?
This requirement is actually not too much.
I said earlier that the Qi family's ancestors went to business, and the family business was quite large, which was richer than many clans. They had to earn 100,000 yuan a year, which was not the ones that Qi Jiu earned when he opened a restaurant. Qi Xiangwen's younger brother divided the 30% of the industry, and he could earn 50,000 or 60,000 taels a year.
Enough for the Qi family to live a luxurious life.
Why are you down now?
First, the population continues to grow and the per capita resources decrease.
Second, no one has a promising future, can't manage, and just sells but doesn't enter.
Bo Zhongyong even lost all his two sons' dowry. You can imagine how extravagant the family is?
With Qi Xiangwen's x-shaped pattern, he would not be reluctant to give up 10% of his property to his younger brother.
Anyway, his purpose was to drive the group of people out of the uncle's mansion and preserve the foundation of his ancestors. Giving up some small money is nothing.
But are people in the Bo Mansion so easy to be fed?
Speaking of this, Qi Jiu stopped beating around the bush and said: Uncle Tai, you also said, my father was grown up. He was not a person who valued fame and fortune, and he would agree to this request. But can you guarantee that the people in the Bo Mansion will agree? Please forgive Xiaojiu for offending and speaking out. The reason why you came here thousands of miles away is because the situation of the Bo Mansion is already bad and embarrassed to a desperate situation. They said it nicely, they wanted to return the title to my father, but in fact, it was because after my father returned, all the family business would return to the Bo Mansion. Why don’t they move out? They wanted to enjoy the happiness of my father. There was no need to manage it themselves, just let the clothes go and eat. In the future, his son will get married, and all the betrothal gifts and dowry will be born by my father.
For the second uncle, he just lacked a short title, but he could enjoy endless wealth and glory. Everyone was surnamed Qi, and even if his father had a rift with his second uncle, he would not take his anger on his nephew. After the girl from Qi's family got married, the uncle's mansion was their parents' home. If he caused trouble, my father would still take the blame. The second uncle's son was not good enough and still wanted my father to make a future. I am a businessman, so don't blame me for being petty and petty. That's why my father so resolutely asked them to move out of the mansion. In order to keep it, what's the difference between my father's acceptance or not? Instead, he gave up his pure life in vain and clean up the mess for them. Why bother?
The sixth uncle is actually a wise person, and Qi Jiu also knows that he has no intention of doing this trip. For the sake of family justice, personal grievances are indeed not so important. The elders of all aristocratic families have this mentality. Even if they are unfair to the parties involved, they have to swallow their grievances for the sake of the public's interests.
But they have been separated for so many years and have never been in conflict with the Bo Mansion's family. Now that Bo Mansion is in trouble and has something to ask for, he should act like asking for help, right? Even if he wants to compromise, his second uncle must bow his head.
Although I have not entered the officialdom, I am also a descendant of the Qi family. From childhood to adulthood, I have never missed the slightest amount of what I should learn. My father opened the door and established a family after he was separated from his family and became a branch. No matter how capable he has lost the support of a large family, he has no joint responsibility for it. Even if he reaches the first rank in the future, he will only be the glorious lineage of our family, not the entire Qi family. I understand this principle, and my father understands it even more. You are sure that he will not ignore the clan’s defeat.
Qi Jiu's face was gone without the banter he played and his tone was calm, but Tai uncle, it was relative to people's interactions. You respect me one foot, I respect you one foot. My father is the eldest brother, but he should not tolerate everything, and others step on his kindness and suck his blood. Do you think this is the reason?
The sixth uncle was speechless.s1;
Qi Jiu also said: You are still tired of working hard for the entire clan at your age, and we juniors are also impressed by it. My father said that when you were in the Marquis' Mansion, you helped him a lot, and our whole family remembered your kindness. When you come, we will not let you go for nothing. But since they regard the family and clan affairs as J Yi, we have to figure it out clearly, first villains and then gentlemen, so as not to get entangled in the future. You said, right?
