Chapter 345 Legend of the Republic of China (2)

Xuan Xia first lived quietly in this house, eating and drinking, but now it has become a simple meal. Although compared with ordinary people, it is already good, but when you think about the original owner's previous life, it is really different.

Xuan Xia had a simple meal first, and waited for the original owner's mother to wake up.

Seeing that she also had chapped lips, I fed her some water.On the second day, Su Shi opened her eyes slightly. She was a little confused at first, so she looked at the surrounding environment, and then looked around blankly.

Her emotions have not yet recovered from the shadow of her husband's death.

"Uncle took our property and put the two of us under house arrest." Xuan Xia said slowly.

After hearing this, Su Shi's sluggish eyes suddenly burst into light, she sat up suddenly, and grabbed Xuan Xia's sleeve: "Then what should I do, when you get married, even a portion of the dowry is not worth it. None left for you!"

Xuan Xia didn't know whether to cry or laugh at this moment, she signaled Su Shi to lie down: "Our family's property is many times that of the dowry."

After hearing this, Su Shi became even more sad.

She covered her face and cried bitterly: "It's all my fault for not living up to expectations. I can't even give birth to a boy. Now all the family property is in the hands of others."

A woman who has suffered from feudal ideology, Xuan Xia also knows that it is useless to talk to her. She sat by Su's bed for a while, and Su took her hand, "I don't even have a dowry." , when you get married in the future, you will definitely be bullied by your in-laws."

Xuan Xia's expression became weird, anyway, the original owner's in-law's family will soon divorce, whether there is a husband's family or not is still hard to say.

The Su family didn't even think that it was unreasonable for the clansmen to embezzle property.On the contrary, she was still lamenting, blaming herself for not being able to have a son, people's thinking is so conservative nowadays, Xuan Xia didn't say much, and left the room silently.

For the life here, the Su family seems to have resigned to their fate.

Married to her husband, now that her husband is dead and her daughter is young, she has never thought about how she will live her life in the future.She is a loving mother, and what she thinks most is that after Xuan Xia gets married, for a girl, without a dowry, she will definitely not be able to gain a firm foothold in her husband's family.

Su started to take on some embroidery jobs.

Although they are under house arrest here, the actions of the mother and daughter are not greatly restricted.The world is very chaotic now, and the two women without money can't go anywhere. The people of the Lu family have figured out that they can't go very far. Usually, when they go out, they only need one to stay at home, and the other can go out.

Not to mention the mother and daughter, who are helpless, and there is no one to turn to when they go out.

It is also impossible for Su Shi to abandon Xuan Xia, or Xuan Xia left Su Shi to leave alone.

The two of them spent their days in this small courtyard like this.The poverty-stricken life exhausted Su Shi's ladylike temperament.

She pulled Xuan Xia to embroider together, and Xuan Xia resisted a little, so she pulled her face down:
"If you embroider like this now, at least you can earn some money. Otherwise, you won't have any money. If you go to your in-law's house to eat at someone else's house, how can you get your husband's respect?"

In order to appease the restless Su family.

Xuan Xia had to obediently stay in the room to embroider, she embroidered very quickly, and the finished products under her hands were always exquisite, and the price was slightly higher.

Xuan Xia saved the slightly more money, waiting to accumulate a small sum, and left it to buy things like paper and pens.When the original owner's father was alive, he had many friends and students, some of whom are now officials.

Xuan Xia thought for a while, and explained clearly what happened to the two of them.The two of them are now orphans and widows, and most people probably don't want to stop this mess, but when the original owner's father was alive, he knew so many people, and there were always one or two chivalrous people.

Before that, she had already found out where she was.

Because as long as one person is left at home, there are not too many restrictions on what to go in and out of usually, and others will not have any thoughts when they see her as a little girl to ask about the place.To be on the safe side, Xuan Xia asked a few more people, and finally confirmed that the conclusion she came to was correct.

She wrote letters one by one about the people the original owner's father knew before his death.

Then began a difficult wait. A month later, a carriage appeared at the gate of the yard. The carriage was very decorated.The country woman who guarded the door for the two of them didn't have the guts to stop them at all, so she bent over tremblingly and let the people in the carriage come in.

Although the feudal era was not good, it also had its advantages.For example, at this time, no one has any idea that everyone is equal. When they see rich officials, they subconsciously feel that they are inferior.

The man got off the carriage and entered the house. As soon as he saw Mrs. Su who was doing embroidery in the house, she immediately shouted excitedly: "Master's wife."

Su Shi stood up, looked at the person who came, and the expression on his face was also stunned: "Why are you here?"

The person who came was Jiang Wenzhong, a student of the original owner's father.The original owner's father is a good teacher, and he is also very talented. He has students all over the world. Jiang Wenzhong's family conditions are good, and he is now an official.

The environment in the room is very simple, just take a quick look, you can tell what kind of life the two of them are living now, Jiang Wenzhong frowned, getting more and more excited: "It's like a group of beasts, if it wasn't for Xuan Xia Write me a letter, I don't even know that my beloved teacher and his family live in such an environment."

Su was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood why someone suddenly came to visit, "It was Xuanxia who wrote you a letter?" After many days of life, she had lost her former gentleness, and shouted into Xuanxia's room : "Come out!"

Xuan Xia is also embroidering, because she is not sure when someone will come, she dare not relax the pace of making money, no matter what happens, money is the most reliable thing.

She put down the embroidery work in her hand, stretched herself, and then walked out of the room.She probably listened a little to what she said outside just now.

Knowing that this was the original owner's father's student, she sorted out the people she had written letters to one by one, combined with the original owner's memory, and quickly judged the identity of this person.

The original owner's father dotes on the original owner very much, because his daughter's knowledge is outstanding, sometimes with a sense of showing off, he always brings the original owner out to meet people, and asks her to compose poems and compose poems to show off her knowledge.

"Uncle Jiang." Xuanxia quickly found this person in her memory and called out softly.

Jiang Wenzhong looked at this face that was somewhat similar to his teacher, and was quite moved. He sighed and slowed down his voice: "Don't be afraid, I will uphold justice for you."
