Jia Lian coughed lightly and said,"The twists and turns here can't be said all day." Let's just talk about the important things now! The Old Lady was an old feudal lord, and the Second Lady had been managing the household well for the past few years. There was only one thing that everyone knew. The first branch with a noble title stood aside, and the second branch without a noble title held power. Old Lady also understood in her heart that as long as she was around, our family would not have any problems. No one would dare to object to who she wants to be the head of the family. However, once she was no longer around, they would definitely have to move out. At that time, one of them would have to move out.”

"It can't be that we're moving out, right?”

"Unless the Emperor gives the order, it's not our turn," Jia Lian said with a smile. Old Lady knows this, so she let you manage the house. You are both the daughter-in-law of the First household and the niece of the Second Mistress. It's as if the housekeeper has returned to the First household. That was why Madam was unhappy. Later on, the old lady said that she was still in charge of the company, which was equivalent to letting her take charge of the house. Only then did she relent. However, if she pulled you to do the hard work and you did all the dirty and tiring work, she would get a good reputation for being kind. Who wouldn't be willing to do such a good thing? And you? In the end, it would definitely be for nothing! To think that you were still so happy. You were sold and still counted money for others!”

"Bah, you're the one counting money!" Sister Phoenix blinked and suddenly said,"You said last night that the old lady wanted to divide the family property to which side?”

Jia Lian looked at her." I did say that not only did the old lady think so, but the madam also thought so. The two of them are united and scheming to leave all the good things to Baoyu. We can't be bothered to compete with them. You don't have to get involved. We started from scratch. In a few years, we'll be able to make a Rong Mansion! Alright?"

Sister Phoenix's face was gloomy. She stood up and walked around the room.

Jia Lian was afraid that she would misunderstand, so he shouted,"Feng 'er?"

Sister Phoenix turned around and smiled." Since they're all thinking about this, I can't back down. I must face the difficulties!"”

"What do you want?" Jia Lian asked.

Sister Phoenix stepped forward and held his hand. She sneered and said,"Why should I give my husband's things to them? From now on, you can only focus on earning money while I stay at home. I must take back what originally belonged to you!”

"Feng 'er, it's not worth it!" Jia Lian said anxiously. In my opinion, the Rong Mansion is not glorious at all. We can't save them even if we want to. It's better to start anew."

"The stove needs to be lit," said Sister Feng with a smile."You can't throw away the old pot! We didn't take anything from others!”

Jia Lian looked at Sister Feng's determined expression and smiled,""Forget it! I can't convince you right now. After all, you can't cause any big trouble at home, so it's up to you! There's only one thing. You can't interfere in the outside world, especially not like them who bully others and lend money for interest!”

Sister Phoenix was a little unhappy." Alright, you've said it 800 times! If you can earn money to support the family, do I still need to do that?”

Jia Lian pulled Sister Feng away." I'm the only one who can stand your fiery temper." Fortunately, I'm a water zodiac. I'll kill you in minutes.”

Sister Phoenix burst into laughter and said angrily,"If it's not proper, then you should water it!"

The next day, Sister Feng had already exchanged the silver for tickets and handed them to Jia Lian.

Jia Lian walked around the courtyard several times, causing Sister Feng to tease him,"Did you hide some silver somewhere that you can't remember now? Do you want Ping Er and the others to help you look for it?”

As she spoke, she really let Ping 'er and the others go to the corner of the wing room to search." If you find it, I'll give you half!”

Jia Lian's face darkened as he grabbed Su 'er, whose eyes were still rolling around." Don't listen to her. Where do I hide the silver?”

Su 'er broke away from Jia Lian's hand, her little mouth was very sharp." Second Master, don't worry. Even if we find it, we won't take a single cent." Naturally, half of it would be returned to Second Master and the other half to Grandma. It was absolutely fair and reasonable!”

"I don't want it either," said Sister Feng with a smile. It wasn't easy for your Second Master to save up this money. I don't know how much wine he drank to get it. If I were to be greedy, it would be a great sin!”

Hence, they all gathered around.

"Second Master, if you really hid it, think about where it is. Let's look for it carefully again." Ping 'er advised.”

Su 'er tilted her head and smiled." If we suddenly find silver without an owner one day, wouldn't we be getting it for free?" Amitabha!"

"Why are you chanting Buddha?" Heng 'er asked in confusion. Can I tell you where the silver is?"

"I'm begging Buddha not to let me have this chance to make a fortune!" Su 'er said seriously.”

Obviously, the scene of Jia Lian counting silver yesterday could make them laugh for a long time.

Jia Lian pointed at them and said angrily,"When your Second Master has money, I'll ask you to move silver from the east wing to the west wing every day. Let's see if you can still laugh!"”

Unexpectedly, they laughed even louder.

Man 'er would remember it in her heart. If she really found out about it in the future, she would definitely return it to Second Master secretly!

Although Jia Lian was the master, he had always been gentle and gentle. He did not humiliate them, so they gradually became presumptuous.

Sister Phoenix was secretly jealous. Jia Lian doted on them, especially the pretty Man 'er. She didn't want to take him in as if she hadn't seen him before. Her originally jealous heart was also relieved.

She walked to Jia Lian's side and asked gently,""Brother Lian, what are you looking for?”

Jia Lian looked at the courtyard again." I want to build a furnace to burn glass. The size of this courtyard is fine, but..."

However, he didn't want them to see him and make them jealous.

Sister Feng noticed his doubts and thought for a moment before pointing to the east courtyard." But that way?"”

Jia Lian smiled and said nothing.

Sister Feng rolled up her sleeves, and the bracelets on her snow-white wrists jingled." Why don't we buy a house outside!”

Jia Lian quickly stepped forward and pulled down Sister Feng's sleeve." Feng 'er said exactly what I thought! Let's buy a courtyard far away. It's best if we do it secretly so that they won't be jealous and gossip. But it will cost a lot."

"So you had a plan all along and were waiting for me here?"”

"How can I?" Jia Lian laughed. There were a few empty houses on the back porch, but there were too many people talking.”

Sister Feng looked at Jia Lian coldly." Brother Lian, if I buy a house for you far away, I won't be able to see you messing around outside."”

"Hey!" Jia Lian was instantly enraged. He actually didn't believe in his own character!

"Xing 'er!" He shouted outside," It's this time of year. Where the hell did you go?”

A delicate and pretty manservant entered and stood with his hands crossed and his head lowered.

"Follow me out!" Jia Lian angrily left the courtyard.

Sister Phoenix bit her lip and twisted her handkerchief." Why can't this person take a joke? Ping 'er, quickly go and find out what Second Master is doing.”

Ping 'er hurriedly rushed out.

Sister Feng was also worried and wanted to follow him. However, when she reached the door, she was stopped by her daughter-in-law who came to report something.
