Chu Huanyan looked at Chu Ziyuan playfully, "I'm afraid you have forgotten that he is a slave of the Hou Mansion, and the money he received was the moon silver I gave him, not yours."

After speaking, she glanced at all the servants present.

"And you guys, it's best to remember this, otherwise next time there is someone as disrespectful as Ah Si, it won't be as simple as thirty sticks."

After the words fell, there was a moment of dead silence in the entire front yard, and then the servants lowered their heads and responded, saying absolutely not.

Chu Ziyuan was about to speak, but Chu Huanyan's cold eyes fell on him, "If you are determined to protect this slave, then the eldest sister will also respect you, but from this moment on, everything you do, no matter good or bad, will , I will never interfere in the slightest again."

Chu Huanyan's tone was firm and left no room for doubt.

In an instant, all Chu Ziyuan's dissatisfied and accusatory words were stuck in his throat.

He had just caused trouble and was waiting for Chu Huanyan to help clean up the mess. How could he agree to such conditions at this time?

Ah Si was pulled up and pressed on the torture bench. Chu Huanyan also ordered the cane to be beaten here, so that everyone could watch.

"Ah! Ah! Your Majesty, help me! Your Majesty!" Ah Si was beaten so hard that he shouted desperately.

"Sister!" Chu Ziyuan softened his voice and wanted to plead for mercy. It was obvious that Chu Huanyan was unmoved, and she immediately gritted her teeth angrily, "How could you be so cold-blooded? You clearly got the news today, but you don't care whether I live or die. Now You still want to beat Ah Si like this!"

"Cold-blooded?"

Chu Huanyan turned to look at Chu Ziyuan.

The face of the person in front of her completely coincided with the face in the memory where he opened his hand with a riding crop and threw her into the bandit's den.

The words Chu Ziyuan said in his previous life also came to mind.

"Give me the horse quickly!"

"It's such a burden. Taking you with you will only delay my pursuit of Ranran!"

"As the eldest sister, it is natural for me to sacrifice for my brother's life-long event! Get away, if you can't catch up with Ranran, I will never forgive you..."

In the last life, Chu Huanyan was shocked, painful, and regretful.

But at this moment, besides hatred, there was only indifference in her heart.

If we were to talk about being cold-blooded, she could not compare to Chu Ziyuan and Chu Wanyan.

"Yes, he is cold-blooded, otherwise why would you leave your brother in a restaurant and ignore him!" Chu Ziyuan said angrily, and then looked at Chu Wanyan, "Wanyan, do you think so!"

Chu Wanyan glanced at Ah Si, who was being beaten until he was howling like a ghost, and then at the servants who were watching. She put on a look of upholding justice and said: "Eldest sister, how can you ignore the second brother? We are blood relatives. Oh, what could be more important than this."

"Wan Yan is right!" Chu Ziyuan responded immediately, looking at Chu Huanyan with an increasingly accusing look.

Looking at the two people standing on the same front, Chu Huanyan turned her eyes and suddenly turned to Chu Wanyan and said, "I'm going to pick out your wedding dress."

"Really?" Chu Wanyan was stunned, and then she smiled broadly, "Eldest sister, I don't want anyone who is not the best!"

"The wedding is arranged in a hurry and requires a lot of preparations, especially the wedding dress, which has to be chosen slowly, so I didn't bother to go to the restaurant today, but..." Chu Huanyan changed the subject, "Since you are so considerate of your second brother , then the eldest sister has also remembered it, and she will just put his affairs first. But if you don’t work hard, if there is any omission in the arrangement, I don’t know if your husband’s family will not Happy?"

Chu Wanyan's originally cheerful face froze, and she frowned almost instantly, "That's not possible. How can there be any omissions in such a big event as getting married!"

"But your second brother's side..." Chu Huanyan was in a dilemma.

Chu Wanyan immediately changed her words: "Eldest sister, second brother is just fighting with someone, nothing serious."

Chu Huanyan sighed, "According to Ziyuan's wishes, I am afraid that the Minister of the Ministry of Finance will not give up. I am afraid that he will have to come to apologize. But now I am planning your wedding. I have no other skills. I can't let you, a bride, prepare the wedding by yourself." , If you say this, you will be laughed at. Otherwise, your marriage will be postponed for a while, and our family will help your second brother solve the problem first? "

"No!" Chu Wanyan immediately objected, "Just let him solve the problems caused by the second brother. How can it affect my marriage!"

Chu Ziyuan's face darkened, "Chu Wanyan, what do you mean!"

"Originally, second brother, no matter how much trouble you have caused, you can't let the eldest sister solve it every time. This time, the eldest sister must prepare the marriage for me first!" When it comes to her own interests, Chu Wanyan suddenly lost her " Generosity” and “kindness”.

"The poor scholar you fancy has nothing to prepare for, and he still has to worry about it!" Chu Ziyuan sneered.

Chu Wanyan's expression changed, "Chu Ziyuan, what did you say!"

"Am I wrong? I was originally a poor scholar who couldn't get on the stage..."

Seeing the two people arguing, Chu Huanyan just felt ridiculous.

It turned out that Chu Ziyuan also looked down on Zhou Xiuwen so much. He also knew that it was bad, but he was the only one who stood up to stop him.

In the last life, from beginning to end, she was the only one Chu Wanyan hated. As for Chu Ziyuan, he was her good second brother.

Chu Wanyan and Chu Ziyuan became more and more quarrelsome. Seeing that they could not tell the winner, they both looked at Chu Huanyan again.

"Sister, who do you want to help first?"

"Sister, who do you want to help first?"

Chu Huanyan looked at the two of them and curled her lips in her heart. Instead of answering the question, she opened her mouth to add fuel to the fire.

"Ignoring who to help first, the government has no money, so I decided to sell Zhiyunxuan. It's just that I owed a lot of money when Zhiyunxuan was being built. After paying off the debt, the rest will be preparing for the wedding and managing the household department. Between the Shangshu Mansion and the Yamen, I’m afraid I can only choose one of the two.”

"how is this possible?"

Chu Wanyan and Chu Ziyuan were both stunned.

"Sister, how could there be no money in the house!"

"That's right, elder sister, don't talk nonsense!"

The two of them looked in disbelief.

"If you don't believe it, you can go to the accounting office and ask, or think about your daily expenses. Do you really think there is gold and silver in the house?" Chu Huanyan's face turned cold.

"Sister, how can I usually spend so much money? I..."

Chu Ziyuan still wanted to refute, but Chu Huanyan looked over.

"Then do you want to take a look at the account book and see how much money is spent on quelling the troubles you cause?"

Chu Ziyuan choked and closed his mouth with an ugly expression.

Chu Wanyan walked up to Chu Huanyan, put her arm around her, and said coquettishly: "Sister, even if you have no money, the worst thing you can do is make more money in your business during this time. Zhiyunxuan cannot be sold, and everyone else can't." Knowing that Zhiyunxuan belongs to our family, wouldn’t it be a joke if we sold it.”

Chu Huanyan looked sideways at Chu Wanyan, "Since Third Sister finds it so easy, why don't you just use your private money to do business? Don't worry, no matter how much you earn, it will all be treated as your own dowry, and you won't get a cent from the house." Won’t stay.”

Chu Wanyan frowned, "Sister, how can I do business!"

"You can't learn it. In your opinion, isn't this thing very simple?"

Chu Wanyan was speechless for a moment, then watched Chu Huanyan call her eldest sister coquettishly. Seeing that Chu Huanyan was unmoved, she gritted her teeth and spoke.

"No, I am the daughter of the Hou family after all. How can I show my face and go out to do business? What's more, Zhou Lang is a scholar. I will marry him soon, so naturally I have to cherish my reputation even more!"
