The old lady Ren was frightened by Ren Shimin's battle, and she felt a little out of breath. When Ren Shimin left, she opened her mouth and couldn't utter a word. When Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua also turned around and left At that moment, the old lady Ren finally fell onto the bed clutching her head, and cried out, "You bastards! It's all wrong...all wrong...old man! Open your eyes and look at these unworthy descendants... ..."

Mrs. Ren glanced at Old Mrs. Ren, then at Ren Yaoyin, after thinking about it, she followed Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua out first.

Ren Yaoyin silently watched the backs of Ren Yaoqi, Ren Yaohua and the eldest wife disappear into the main room, took a few deep breaths before turning to comfort the old lady Ren, her voice was soft but her eyes were extremely indifferent.

When Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua came out of the old lady's room, they found that there was no one in the yard, and even the maids who guarded the gate didn't know where they were. They felt strange, but they saw the third young lady Qi quietly coming from the gate of the yard. A head poked out from behind a pillar, waving at them and winking at the same time, Ren Yaoqi understood that Ren Shimin could stand outside for so long without disturbing the people inside, and listened to their conversation clearly and affirmed It has nothing to do with the Qi family.

Ren Yaoqi was about to walk over, but she heard the eldest lady chasing after her: "You two aunts, please stay."

Qi's movement quickly flashed back behind the pillar, hiding himself tightly.

Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua stopped in their tracks, and turned to look at the eldest wife who was chasing after them quickly.

"You two aunts, the old lady... Please don't take it too seriously. You can come back today. My master and I are very grateful, and thank you for your willingness to help the Ren family regardless of the past. "The eldest lady said sincerely.

Ren Yaohua twitched the corner of her mouth: "You're being polite, but it's a pity that our father is stubborn and doesn't like the younger generation who is rushing to be a concubine, so I'm afraid we won't be able to help Ren Yaoyin."

The eldest wife's expression was slightly stiff, but she still said: "Your uncle and I will not tolerate our daughter being a concubine. Just pretend you haven't heard of it, and forget it."

Ren Yaoqi nodded to the eldest wife. : "I will send someone back after I have settled with the members of the Yu family."

While sending them out, the eldest wife thanked them repeatedly: "Thank you, Grandma Wugu, this time it is really thanks to you."

Compared with the old lady Ren, the eldest lady is a very knowledgeable person. When Ren Yaoqi and the others were still in the Ren family. Although she turned a blind eye to Aunt Fang's bullying of Mrs. Li, she did not break up with Mrs. Li's mother and daughter, and she did not lose the amount that should be allocated to them, and everything was left on the line.

However, Ren Yaoqi smiled meaningfully: "Don't thank me too early, Mrs. I don't know if I can help you. I'm afraid I will become a sinner if things don't work out."

The eldest lady hurriedly said: "Can you help me? The Ren family must thank you, young lady. Don't worry, young lady, our master and I will remember your kindness. As for the old lady... I will persuade you more, Please rest assured."

This time the eldest wife even changed the name of Ren Yaoqi.

Compared with Mrs. Ren. Ren Yaoqi still likes to deal with smart people like the eldest wife. Although she doesn't have a good impression of the eldest wife, at least the eldest wife knows when to show what attitude and what to do.

"Speaking of which, the old lady is also getting old, and most families should enjoy happiness when they reach her age. Otherwise, they would worry about the marriage of their grandchildren all day long. It's hard work... What do you think, Mrs. Ren?" Yao Qi laughed.

The eldest lady's eyes flashed when she heard the words, and she was silent for a while before she bowed her head and said: "Young lady is right, it was my negligence as a daughter-in-law. Now that the old lady is gone, the old lady is too sad and her health is not good. She should let her Take a good rest."

Ren Yaoqi glanced at the eldest wife, smiled and said nothing more, she had already said what should be said.

The eldest wife personally sent Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua to the carriage. When the carriage was about to leave, the eldest lady still couldn't help asking: "Young Madam, where is Third Uncle..."

Ren Yaoqi opened the curtain and said: "My father has already explained everything clearly before, what else does the eldest wife not understand?"

The eldest lady took a look at Ren Yaoqi and sighed in her heart, knowing that it was impossible to bring back Ren Shimin's family, and she didn't want to make herself annoying, so she immediately said: "I understand, it's still the Ren family who are talking about it." It’s not right, and I can’t blame Third Uncle for being disheartened and unwilling to come back. But let’s forget about the money, I don’t think our master will be willing to accept Third Uncle’s money.”

Ren Yaoqi shook her head: "This is my father's decision, I can't refute it, and we really owe the Ren family the kindness of raising us. Since my father wants to give it to me, the eldest wife should persuade the elder to accept it, otherwise he will not accept it in his heart." It's even more unpleasant."

The eldest lady sighed after hearing the words, and then said no more, watched Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua's carriage leave before turning back.

She originally wanted to go back to the old lady Ren's yard to have a look, but on the way, she ran into the third young mistress, Mrs. Qi. The eldest lady stopped, and stood in the same place, watching Qi's approaching with mixed expressions, her eyebrows were pleasing to the eye. salute her.

Mrs. Qi saluted, but the eldest lady did not make a sound for a long time, so she couldn't help sneaking a glance at her, but just met the eldest wife's appraising eyes, and couldn't help but her heart skipped a beat.

"Mother? Is there something on my daughter-in-law's face?" Mrs. Qi laughed along and touched her own face.

The eldest lady still looked at her without speaking.

Mrs. Qi thought that he might not be so lucky to escape the accusation of the eldest wife this time, and was thinking about whether to simply admit his mistake, but the eldest wife sighed.

"Did you think you could fool everyone with your little tricks? Come and tell me, how did the old lady fall so hard that day? How did your third uncle and third aunt get in today without disturbing the old lady?" courtyard?"

Mrs. Qi smiled sheepishly, lowered her head and played with the corner of her clothes, preparing to bear her mother-in-law's anger with a proper attitude.

The eldest lady looked at Qi's eyes with complicated eyes, and shook her head a little tiredly after a while, and said: "Forget it, after so long, I can understand it. Those who look smart are not necessarily sensible people, they look stupid to the point of Maybe it's really smart. Everyone has their own blessings and fate, you...you can do it yourself."

Qi Shi blinked his eyes, his face was ignorant.

The eldest lady gave her a sideways look, and left without saying, "If you don't want to understand, then don't understand, just treat you as a fool!"

Seeing the back of the eldest lady disappear into the corner door next to her, Mrs. Qi blinked and showed a somewhat sly smile, then hummed an out-of-tune song and bounced away. After walking five or six steps, she remembered the old man With his bones still cold, he coughed and smiled quickly, and put on a sad face, but the steps seemed a little brisk.

After Old Master Ren's funeral, Third Master Ren and Mrs. Li returned to Yunyang City.

When Ren Shimin said that he wanted to pay back the Ren family's money, he was not just kidding. He was actually a very serious person at certain times. I have been worried, but I don't have a lot of spare money on hand. Let the accountant calculate all the available cash, but at most it is less than 20,000 taels of silver, which is naturally not enough to pay back what he owes to Ren's family.

But for Ren Shimin, there is no reason to take back what he said. In the end, he hesitated and turned his attention to the famous paintings and copybooks he had collected. and the real thing.

But these are the lifeblood of Master Ren, and touching them makes him more uncomfortable than touching Master Ren himself, so these days he almost stays in his study and takes out those treasures from time to time, looking at this and then that, The look of parting from life and death is even more sad than when his own father, Mrs. Ren, passed away.

Then when Mr. Ren was sitting at the dining table again on this day and didn't know what to eat, Mrs. Li asked Nanny Zhou to take out a small camphorwood box and handed it to Ren Shimin.

Ren Shimin was taken aback when he opened it, because there was a whole box of silver bills in the box, the big ones were worth 30,000 to 50,000, and the small ones were worth 30,000 to 5,000. Ten thousand.

Even Mr. Ren, who was never short of money, was startled, and asked Li in a daze, "Where did these come from?"

Mrs. Li pursed her lips and smiled, and said warmly: "Some of these silvers were handed over to my concubine by the master over the years, and the concubine saved them. When you take them out, you can see that the amount is quite a lot. There are also tens of thousands of taels from my brother a while ago." It was handed over to me at the time, saying that it was time to pay back the debt. I know you don’t want to see him, so I didn’t mention it to you without telling you. But since the family needs money, I will take it out together. gone."

Ren Shimin couldn't help being surprised when he heard this: "You took all the money I gave you these years? I thought..."

Ren Shimin paused for a moment, but swallowed his words. He wanted to say that he thought Mrs. Li had subsidized the money he had given to Xian Wangfu all these years. He doesn't value money himself, so he keeps turning a blind eye, thinking that he is buying rouge, gouache, face jewelry for his wife and daughter. Unexpectedly, Mrs. Li didn't take out the silver?

After thinking about it, Ren Shimin felt something was wrong again, and frowned, "Wait, when did Li Tianyou owe me money?"

Mrs. Li coughed lightly: "Did the master forget that he lied to you to sell the painting for money? Last time he came here, he wanted to apologize to you, but he was afraid that you would still think he was vulgar, so he was not willing to talk to him."

Ren Shimin glanced at the box of bank notes, and muttered, "I'm not so elegant now."
