Hua Xu sat behind the desk, his expression calm, his gaze fell on his hand, and what he was playing with in his palm was the phoenix pendant.
Hua Zhuo was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously wanted to shake his head, but stopped and thought for a while before saying: "When my daughter left, she was in a hurry, and she never paid attention to the movement of Jinshitang. It was just that her daughter didn't pay attention to her since that time. Jinshitang has never tested it again."
After figuring this out, she blushed with shame. She always thought she had done a good job, but in the end... she felt ashamed.
"Tell me about it." Hua Xu said in a calm voice.
Hua Xu sighed, he was a gentleman after all, and his thoughts quickly turned to the people's livelihood.
"That..." Hua Zhuo's face turned red and he whispered, "No."
"Dad." Hua Zhuo saw Li and stood obediently on the side of the desk.
Hua Xu was slapped with flattery by his daughter and the corners of his mouth turned upward. He suddenly felt that he had lost his majesty, so he quickly straightened his face and scolded her.
In fact, he had already heard relevant matters from Hua Daoan and his son, Hua Yiren, and Fang, but now, he wanted to hear his daughter say it even more.
"Poor talk..."
At that time, she conveniently gave the silver coins returned from Jinshitang to Grandma Liu to keep. Since she didn't have much silver to use at that time, she didn't return them. Now when her father suddenly asked her, she realized, There seems to be something wrong with this move.
Hua Zhuo took a deep breath. She had already sorted out her thoughts on the way here. At this moment, she was talking without pausing. She only talked about how she got the Phoenix Pei and how she accidentally saw the beauty under the moon in Jinshi Hall. The phoenix pattern on the picture, how Jinshitang tried it, and finally she even talked about the news about the second seal from Master Kuyue. When she said it, she was very careful about the words she used and tried not to bring anything into it. My own speculation was lest it interfere with my father's judgment.
"Tell me about it." Hua Xu said in a calm voice.
Hua Xu sighed, he was a gentleman after all, and his thoughts quickly turned to the people's livelihood.
"Dad, do you really plan to take back those properties?"
Hua Xu was slapped with flattery by his daughter and the corners of his mouth turned upward. He suddenly felt that he had lost his majesty, so he quickly straightened his face and scolded her.
In fact, he had already heard relevant matters from Hua Daoan and his son, Hua Yiren, and Fang, but now, he wanted to hear his daughter say it even more.
"Daddy..."
Hua Zhuo seemed to be enlightened, and the confusion in his mind instantly became clear. Yes, yes, anyone who receives such a large amount of money out of nowhere, there is no reason not to ask. If nothing else, you should at least go to Jinshitang and ask, what do they mean by returning the money? But at that time, she was completely attracted by the piece of paper with the phoenix pattern and the deformed characters, and she felt guilty. She was afraid that Jin Shitang's temptation was not out of good intentions, so she made the decision to ignore it and pretended not to. He recognized the pattern on the paper, but completely ignored the banknotes. She also made the mistake of preconceptions for a moment. When she saw the paper with the phoenix pattern on it, she already decided that Jinshitang must be one of her lost properties. Since it was her own property, it was natural for her to return the banknote. .
After figuring this out, she blushed with shame. She always thought she had done a good job, but in the end... she felt ashamed.
Hua Zhuo was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously wanted to shake his head, but stopped and thought for a while before saying: "When my daughter left, she was in a hurry, and she never paid attention to the movement of Jinshitang. It was just that her daughter didn't pay attention to her since that time. Jinshitang has never tested it again."
Sure enough, Hua Xu immediately frowned and scolded: "Confused, with just this one oversight, your true identity has been revealed." He didn't scold him too deeply. excusable.
The long lecture made the dignified Fu Yin look like an old master. Hua Zhuo was completely wilted by the lecture, like an eggplant beaten by frost, listless, until after hearing his father's long lecture, he suddenly said: "Hang on." Aunt Fifteen will bring you the wax pills." She was suddenly startled.
Hua Zhuo thought for a moment and then asked hesitantly: "Dad, are you talking about... river embankment?"
Hua Xu nodded slightly, and without knowing when, his hands clenched tightly into fists, and said: "Earlier, your mother sent someone to deliver a letter back quickly, saying that you got news from Qin Tianjian, and the flood season will be advanced this year. I still don't believe it, but Seeing that the rain has been falling for a long time, the water level of the Xinjiang River has risen by nearly a foot. If this weather continues for another half month, floods are inevitable. The Xinjiang River Basin passes through six counties. There are many, and now I am the only one in Nanping County to rebuild river embankments..."
Hua Zhuo took a deep breath. She had already sorted out her thoughts on the way here. At this moment, she was talking without pausing. She only talked about how she got the Phoenix Pei and how she accidentally saw the beauty under the moon in Jinshi Hall. The phoenix pattern on the picture, how Jinshitang tried it, and finally she even talked about the news about the second seal from Master Kuyue. When she said it, she was very careful about the words she used and tried not to bring anything into it. My own speculation was lest it interfere with my father's judgment.
Hua Zhuo raised her eyebrows and said, "So dad still has to work hard." She clapped her fingers and said, "Now that dad is the chief official of a government, he can already save the people of a county. When he comes to court, dad can be like his great-grandfather. Normally, if you are in charge of the government affairs of a state, wouldn't it mean that all the people in the world would set up immortality tablets for their father?"
"Poor talk..."

Normally, if you are in charge of the government affairs of a state, wouldn't it mean that all the people in the world would set up immortality tablets for their father?"
Hua Xu pondered for a long time, and then suddenly asked: "When you left the capital, was there anything going on in Jinshi Hall?"
Hua Zhuo thought for a moment and then asked hesitantly: "Dad, are you talking about... river embankment?"
Hua Zhuo seemed to be enlightened, and the confusion in his mind instantly became clear. Yes, yes, anyone who receives such a large amount of money out of nowhere, there is no reason not to ask. If nothing else, you should at least go to Jinshitang and ask, what do they mean by returning the money?

When she saw the paper with the phoenix pattern on it, she already decided that Jinshitang must be one of her lost properties. Since it was her own property, it was natural for her to return the banknote. .
Seeing his daughter's depression, Hua Xu's tone softened and he said, "Don't think too much. Being a father is not about taking risks, but making decisions before you act. Did you know that at this time, Rong'an Tang is facing a leap forward?" This is a great opportunity. If you can take advantage of the situation and seize the opportunity to take back those lost properties, firstly, as a father, you will be worthy of the heroic spirit of your ancestors. Secondly, as a father, you can also lay a solid foundation for Rongantang, giving you and your brother a better life. future."
My father is a true gentleman. He is open-minded, ambitious, and courageous, but he has never been the kind of person who would rush into greed for temporary gain. How could he have made such a decision if he had not been forced to do so.
Hua Zhuo was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously wanted to shake his head, but stopped and thought for a while before saying: "When my daughter left, she was in a hurry, and she never paid attention to the movement of Jinshitang. It was just that her daughter didn't pay attention to her since that time. Jinshitang has never tested it again."
"It's a pity...the river embankment is not long enough, so the people will suffer in the end..."
Hua Zhuo imagined the scene at that time, his eyes twinkling involuntarily. Yes, this is Rongantang's opportunity. It is a once-in-a-lifetime event. As long as there is a flood, other counties will be affected. Only Nanping County is safe. Who can Obliterate father's achievements. By then, father's career will be at its peak, and the holy family will be at its most important. Who would be stupid enough to offend father head-on in this limelight, and this is also a great opportunity to take back those properties. No matter how attractive money is, one must have a life to enjoy it. How many people dare to play tricks at this time? I really don’t know how to write the word "death".
Seeing his daughter like this, there was a smile deep in Hua Xu's eyes, but his face was still stern, and he said: "No one is a sage, no one can have no faults, and there is no greater good than knowing one's faults and correcting them. If you know how to be ashamed, then you should do it." Know your shame and then move forward. In the future, you should think more carefully when you act. Don't treat others as if you are as ignorant as you. You should keep the lessons of this time firmly in mind and think twice before you act in the future... "
"Tell me about it." Hua Xu said in a calm voice.
"Tell me about it." Hua Xu said in a calm voice.
Hua Zhuo thought for a moment and then asked hesitantly: "Dad, are you talking about... river embankment?"
Hua Xu raised his brows slightly and said, "Did you send someone to send back the silver coins that Jinshitang returned?"
Hua Xu sighed, he was a gentleman after all, and his thoughts quickly turned to the people's livelihood.
Hua Xu straightened his face and said: "There is no reason to allow the inheritance left by our ancestors to leak out. Whether you can take it back is one thing, and whether you can take it back or not is another thing. If you don't get it back, Feng Pei, of course there is nothing to worry about. Now that the opportunity has arrived, do you know that there is a holy saying that says, 'If the emperor does not take it, he will suffer the consequences'?"
Hua Zhuo took a deep breath. She had already sorted out her thoughts on the way here. At this moment, she was talking without pausing. She only talked about how she got the Phoenix Pei and how she accidentally saw the beauty under the moon in Jinshi Hall. The phoenix pattern on the picture, how Jinshitang tried it, and finally she even talked about the news about the second seal from Master Kuyue. When she said it, she was very careful about the words she used and tried not to bring anything into it. My own speculation was lest it interfere with my father's judgment.

"My daughter understands."
Hua Zhuo thought for a moment and then asked hesitantly: "Dad, are you talking about... river embankment?"
"That..." Hua Zhuo's face turned red and he whispered, "No."
"It's a pity...the river embankment is not long enough, so the people will suffer in the end..."

She was taught respectfully, but she still felt a little uncomfortable in her heart. If she hadn't acted carelessly and let Jin Shitang find out the truth, maybe her father would not have made such a risky decision. Those properties have been lost for so many years, and it is definitely not that easy. Just taking it back, she didn't dare to imagine how many confrontations and calculations would occur.
Hua Xu sighed, he was a gentleman after all, and his thoughts quickly turned to the people's livelihood.
Gentlemen don't flatter, and women should do the same. She remembered the lesson this time.
"Dad." Hua Zhuo saw Li and stood obediently on the side of the desk.
Hua Xu was slapped with flattery by his daughter and the corners of his mouth turned upward. He suddenly felt that he had lost his majesty, so he quickly straightened his face and scolded her.
Sure enough, Hua Xu immediately frowned and scolded: "Confused, with just this one oversight, your true identity has been revealed." He didn't scold him too deeply. excusable.
Well, Hua Zhuo understood what his father meant. Whether he does it or not is a matter of attitude. Whether he succeeds or not is a matter of ability. But this is not the most critical issue. The key issue is that Rong'an Hall can regain its independence. Fengpei's matter is no longer a secret. At least, Jinshitang already knows about it. Since Jinshitang can know, maybe there will be other halls that can know. After decades, people's hearts are separated from their bellies, and wealth and silk are touching people's hearts. Who knows if someone will take advantage of Rong'an Tang in order to occupy that piece of property forever. Instead of waiting for others to do it, Rong'an Tang might as well take advantage of now, before the secret is fully disclosed, and get some of it back first. Rongantang's industry strives to strengthen itself. As long as Rongantang's foundation is deep, are we still afraid of someone doing evil
Sure enough, Hua Xu immediately frowned and scolded: "Confused, with just this one oversight, your true identity has been revealed." He didn't scold him too deeply. excusable.
She was taught respectfully, but she still felt a little uncomfortable in her heart. If she hadn't acted carelessly and let Jin Shitang find out the truth, maybe her father would not have made such a risky decision.

"It's a pity...the river embankment is not long enough, so the people will suffer in the end..."
Although Hua Zhuo felt something was wrong, she couldn't think it through for a while. Therefore, after being reprimanded by Hua Xu, a look of confusion appeared on her face involuntarily. She just didn't return the money. At most, she was The people at Jinshitang thought she was taking advantage, so why did she let others find out the details
My father is a true gentleman. He is open-minded, ambitious, and courageous, but he has never been the kind of person who would rush into greed for temporary gain. How could he have made such a decision if he had not been forced to do so.
Hua Zhuo walked over curiously, picked up the book and read "Female Commandments", and his face suddenly fell. Well, she knew she was wrong and shouldn't have joked with her father. She had known for a long time that her father had such a rigid temperament, how could he withstand such a harsh flattery? Look, the flattery was slapped on the horse's leg.
Seeing his daughter's depression, Hua Xu's tone softened and he said, "Don't think too much. Being a father is not about taking risks, but making decisions before you act. Did you know that at this time, Rong'an Tang is facing a leap forward?" This is a great opportunity.

Secondly, as a father, you can also lay a solid foundation for Rongantang, giving you and your brother a better life. future."
Hua Xu snorted softly, pointed to the bookshelf and said: "The first book on the third shelf to the west, take it back and copy it three times and hand it in tomorrow."
Hua Xu said in a deep voice: "You were right when you decided to ignore it, but the method was wrong. Ignoring it doesn't mean you will do nothing. Since Jinshitang is testing you, he must be suspicious of you. , they suspected that you had this phoenix pendant in your hand, so they used the deformed phoenix pendant pattern to test, but that was just a cover-up. Their real test for you was the returned banknote. Let me ask you, if you I don’t know about Feng Pei, but I received the banknote returned from Jinshitang inexplicably, how can I not ask further questions?”
After figuring this out, she blushed with shame. She always thought she had done a good job, but in the end... she felt ashamed.
At that time, she conveniently gave the silver coins returned from Jinshitang to Grandma Liu to keep. Since she didn't have much silver to use at that time, she didn't return them. Now when her father suddenly asked her, she realized, There seems to be something wrong with this move.
How could Hua Zhuo be afraid of him? He chuckled and said, "My daughter is telling the truth..."
Hua Xu pondered for a long time, and then suddenly asked: "When you left the capital, was there anything going on in Jinshi Hall?"
Having said this, even though he was as calm as he was, he couldn't help but take a deep breath. Is this a political achievement? No, this is an achievement, a huge achievement that even Rongchang Hall cannot hope to suppress anymore. Awards, promotions, fame, fortune... Without even thinking about it, this is an opportunity for Rong'an Hall to take off. If we can take advantage of this momentum, , taking advantage of the situation to take over the lost properties of Rongantang, the difficulty will be much less than at any other time.
Hua Zhuo imagined the scene at that time, his eyes twinkling involuntarily. Yes, this is Rongantang's opportunity. It is a once-in-a-lifetime event.

Hua Zhuo thought for a moment and then asked hesitantly: "Dad, are you talking about... river embankment?"
The long lecture made the dignified Fu Yin look like an old master. Hua Zhuo was completely wilted by the lecture, like an eggplant beaten by frost, listless, until after hearing his father's long lecture, he suddenly said: "Hang on." Aunt Fifteen will bring you the wax pills." She was suddenly startled.
"ah… "
Although she had not opened the wax pill and looked at it, she could guess that what was sealed inside the wax pill must be the lost property list of Rongan Hall. If her father had no intention of taking back those properties, he would not ask for the wax pill from her.
Hua Xu nodded slightly, and without knowing when, his hands clenched tightly into fists, and said: "Earlier, your mother sent someone to deliver a letter back quickly, saying that you got news from Qin Tianjian, and the flood season will be advanced this year. I still don't believe it, but Seeing that the rain has been falling for a long time, the water level of the Xinjiang River has risen by nearly a foot.

Without even thinking about it, this is an opportunity for Rong'an Hall to take off. If we can take advantage of this momentum, , taking advantage of the situation to take over the lost properties of Rongantang, the difficulty will be much less than at any other time.
Now that I think about it, her ignoring it was clearly telling Jinshitang that she already knew that Jinshitang was her family's lost property, she took back the banknote, and then...no then, if Jinshitang really wanted to return to Rongantang Next, I guess the old shopkeeper is looking forward to her taking the phoenix pendant to take over Jinshitang. If Jinshitang has no intention of returning to the name of Rongantang, such a long time is enough for the old shopkeeper to take over Jinshitang. The assets were sold, stolen, and given away. By the time she returned to the capital, Jinshitang might have disappeared without a trace.
Hua Xu was slapped with flattery by his daughter and the corners of his mouth turned upward. He suddenly felt that he had lost his majesty, so he quickly straightened his face and scolded her.
Hua Zhuo was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously wanted to shake his head, but stopped and thought for a while before saying: "When my daughter left, she was in a hurry, and she never paid attention to the movement of Jinshitang. It was just that her daughter didn't pay attention to her since that time. Jinshitang has never tested it again."

Although she had not opened the wax pill and looked at it, she could guess that what was sealed inside the wax pill must be the lost property list of Rongan Hall. If her father had no intention of taking back those properties, he would not ask for the wax pill from her.
Seeing his daughter like this, there was a smile deep in Hua Xu's eyes, but his face was still stern, and he said: "No one is a sage, no one can have no faults, and there is no greater good than knowing one's faults and correcting them. If you know how to be ashamed, then you should do it." Know your shame and then move forward. In the future, you should think more carefully when you act. Don't treat others as if you are as ignorant as you. You should keep the lessons of this time firmly in mind and think twice before you act in the future... "
Hua Xu sighed, he was a gentleman after all, and his thoughts quickly turned to the people's livelihood.
After figuring this out, she blushed with shame. She always thought she had done a good job, but in the end... she felt ashamed.
"Dad." Hua Zhuo saw Li and stood obediently on the side of the desk.
Hua Xu straightened his face and said: "There is no reason to allow the inheritance left by our ancestors to leak out. Whether you can take it back is one thing, and whether you can take it back or not is another thing. If you don't get it back, Feng Pei, of course there is nothing to worry about. Now that the opportunity has arrived, do you know that there is a holy saying that says, 'If the emperor does not take it, he will suffer the consequences'?"
Although Hua Zhuo felt something was wrong, she couldn't think it through for a while. Therefore, after being reprimanded by Hua Xu, a look of confusion appeared on her face involuntarily. She just didn't return the money. At most, she was The people at Jinshitang thought she was taking advantage, so why did she let others find out the details
Hua Zhuo was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously wanted to shake his head, but stopped and thought for a while before saying: "When my daughter left, she was in a hurry, and she never paid attention to the movement of Jinshitang. It was just that her daughter didn't pay attention to her since that time. Jinshitang has never tested it again."
Seeing his daughter like this, there was a smile deep in Hua Xu's eyes, but his face was still stern, and he said: "No one is a sage, no one can have no faults, and there is no greater good than knowing one's faults and correcting them.

Don't treat others as if you are as ignorant as you. You should keep the lessons of this time firmly in mind and think twice before you act in the future... "
Well, Hua Zhuo understood what his father meant. Whether he does it or not is a matter of attitude. Whether he succeeds or not is a matter of ability. But this is not the most critical issue. The key issue is that Rong'an Hall can regain its independence. Fengpei's matter is no longer a secret. At least, Jinshitang already knows about it. Since Jinshitang can know, maybe there will be other halls that can know. After decades, people's hearts are separated from their bellies, and wealth and silk are touching people's hearts. Who knows if someone will take advantage of Rong'an Tang in order to occupy that piece of property forever. Instead of waiting for others to do it, Rong'an Tang might as well take advantage of now, before the secret is fully disclosed, and get some of it back first. Rongantang's industry strives to strengthen itself. As long as Rongantang's foundation is deep, are we still afraid of someone doing evil
Hua Xu nodded slightly, and without knowing when, his hands clenched tightly into fists, and said: "Earlier, your mother sent someone to deliver a letter back quickly, saying that you got news from Qin Tianjian, and the flood season will be advanced this year. I still don't believe it, but Seeing that the rain has been falling for a long time, the water level of the Xinjiang River has risen by nearly a foot. If this weather continues for another half month, floods are inevitable. The Xinjiang River Basin passes through six counties. There are many, and now I am the only one in Nanping County to rebuild river embankments..."
Hua Zhuo thought for a moment and then asked hesitantly: "Dad, are you talking about... river embankment?"
"Poor talk..."
Although Hua Zhuo felt something was wrong, she couldn't think it through for a while. Therefore, after being reprimanded by Hua Xu, a look of confusion appeared on her face involuntarily. She just didn't return the money. At most, she was The people at Jinshitang thought she was taking advantage, so why did she let others find out the details

Now that the opportunity has arrived, do you know that there is a holy saying that says, 'If the emperor does not take it, he will suffer the consequences'?"
In fact, he had already heard relevant matters from Hua Daoan and his son, Hua Yiren, and Fang, but now, he wanted to hear his daughter say it even more.
"My daughter understands."
Hua Xu was slapped with flattery by his daughter and the corners of his mouth turned upward. He suddenly felt that he had lost his majesty, so he quickly straightened his face and scolded her.
Although she had not opened the wax pill and looked at it, she could guess that what was sealed inside the wax pill must be the lost property list of Rongan Hall. If her father had no intention of taking back those properties, he would not ask for the wax pill from her.
After figuring this out, she blushed with shame. She always thought she had done a good job, but in the end... she felt ashamed.
She was taught respectfully, but she still felt a little uncomfortable in her heart. If she hadn't acted carelessly and let Jin Shitang find out the truth, maybe her father would not have made such a risky decision. Those properties have been lost for so many years, and it is definitely not that easy. Just taking it back, she didn't dare to imagine how many confrontations and calculations would occur.

Seeing his daughter's depression, Hua Xu's tone softened and he said, "Don't think too much. Being a father is not about taking risks, but making decisions before you act. Did you know that at this time, Rong'an Tang is facing a leap forward?" This is a great opportunity. If you can take advantage of the situation and seize the opportunity to take back those lost properties, firstly, as a father, you will be worthy of the heroic spirit of your ancestors. Secondly, as a father, you can also lay a solid foundation for Rongantang, giving you and your brother a better life. future."
"It's a pity...the river embankment is not long enough, so the people will suffer in the end..."
Hua Zhuo raised her eyebrows and said, "So dad still has to work hard." She clapped her fingers and said, "Now that dad is the chief official of a government, he can already save the people of a county. When he comes to court, dad can be like his great-grandfather. Normally, if you are in charge of the government affairs of a state, wouldn't it mean that all the people in the world would set up immortality tablets for their father?"
My father is a true gentleman. He is open-minded, ambitious, and courageous, but he has never been the kind of person who would rush into greed for temporary gain. How could he have made such a decision if he had not been forced to do so.

"ah… "
Hua Zhuo was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously wanted to shake his head, but stopped and thought for a while before saying: "When my daughter left, she was in a hurry, and she never paid attention to the movement of Jinshitang.

In fact, he had already heard relevant matters from Hua Daoan and his son, Hua Yiren, and Fang, but now, he wanted to hear his daughter say it even more.
Hua Zhuo seemed to be enlightened, and the confusion in his mind instantly became clear. Yes, yes, anyone who receives such a large amount of money out of nowhere, there is no reason not to ask. If nothing else, you should at least go to Jinshitang and ask, what do they mean by returning the money? But at that time, she was completely attracted by the piece of paper with the phoenix pattern and the deformed characters, and she felt guilty. She was afraid that Jin Shitang's temptation was not out of good intentions, so she made the decision to ignore it and pretended not to. He recognized the pattern on the paper, but completely ignored the banknotes. She also made the mistake of preconceptions for a moment. When she saw the paper with the phoenix pattern on it, she already decided that Jinshitang must be one of her lost properties. Since it was her own property, it was natural for her to return the banknote. .
Hua Zhuo imagined the scene at that time, his eyes twinkling involuntarily. Yes, this is Rongantang's opportunity. It is a once-in-a-lifetime event. As long as there is a flood, other counties will be affected. Only Nanping County is safe. Who can Obliterate father's achievements. By then, father's career will be at its peak, and the holy family will be at its most important. Who would be stupid enough to offend father head-on in this limelight, and this is also a great opportunity to take back those properties. No matter how attractive money is, one must have a life to enjoy it. How many people dare to play tricks at this time? I really don’t know how to write the word "death".
"That..." Hua Zhuo's face turned red and he whispered, "No."
Having said this, even though he was as calm as he was, he couldn't help but take a deep breath. Is this a political achievement? No, this is an achievement, a huge achievement that even Rongchang Hall cannot hope to suppress anymore. Awards, promotions, fame, fortune... Without even thinking about it, this is an opportunity for Rong'an Hall to take off. If we can take advantage of this momentum, , taking advantage of the situation to take over the lost properties of Rongantang, the difficulty will be much less than at any other time.
Gentlemen don't flatter, and women should do the same. She remembered the lesson this time.

The long lecture made the dignified Fu Yin look like an old master. Hua Zhuo was completely wilted by the lecture, like an eggplant beaten by frost, listless, until after hearing his father's long lecture, he suddenly said: "Hang on." Aunt Fifteen will bring you the wax pills." She was suddenly startled.

Now that I think about it, her ignoring it was clearly telling Jinshitang that she already knew that Jinshitang was her family's lost property, she took back the banknote, and then...no then, if Jinshitang really wanted to return to Rongantang Next, I guess the old shopkeeper is looking forward to her taking the phoenix pendant to take over Jinshitang. If Jinshitang has no intention of returning to the name of Rongantang, such a long time is enough for the old shopkeeper to take over Jinshitang. The assets were sold, stolen, and given away. By the time she returned to the capital, Jinshitang might have disappeared without a trace.
"Tell me about it." Hua Xu said in a calm voice.
"That..." Hua Zhuo's face turned red and he whispered, "No."

At that time, she conveniently gave the silver coins returned from Jinshitang to Grandma Liu to keep. Since she didn't have much silver to use at that time, she didn't return them. Now when her father suddenly asked her, she realized, There seems to be something wrong with this move.
Gentlemen don't flatter, and women should do the same. She remembered the lesson this time.
"Dad." Hua Zhuo saw Li and stood obediently on the side of the desk.
Hua Xu sighed, he was a gentleman after all, and his thoughts quickly turned to the people's livelihood.
"ah… "
Hua Xu said in a deep voice: "You were right when you decided to ignore it, but the method was wrong. Ignoring it doesn't mean you will do nothing. Since Jinshitang is testing you, he must be suspicious of you. , they suspected that you had this phoenix pendant in your hand, so they used the deformed phoenix pendant pattern to test, but that was just a cover-up.

Now that the opportunity has arrived, do you know that there is a holy saying that says, 'If the emperor does not take it, he will suffer the consequences'?"
"It's a pity...the river embankment is not long enough, so the people will suffer in the end..."
Hua Xu snorted softly, pointed to the bookshelf and said: "The first book on the third shelf to the west, take it back and copy it three times and hand it in tomorrow."
"ah… "
My father is a true gentleman. He is open-minded, ambitious, and courageous, but he has never been the kind of person who would rush into greed for temporary gain. How could he have made such a decision if he had not been forced to do so.

She had known for a long time that her father had such a rigid temperament, how could he withstand such a harsh flattery? Look, the flattery was slapped on the horse's leg.
Sure enough, Hua Xu immediately frowned and scolded: "Confused, with just this one oversight, your true identity has been revealed." He didn't scold him too deeply. excusable.
"It's a pity...the river embankment is not long enough, so the people will suffer in the end..."
"Dad." Hua Zhuo saw Li and stood obediently on the side of the desk.
Although Hua Zhuo felt something was wrong, she couldn't think it through for a while. Therefore, after being reprimanded by Hua Xu, a look of confusion appeared on her face involuntarily. She just didn't return the money. At most, she was The people at Jinshitang thought she was taking advantage, so why did she let others find out the details
Although she had not opened the wax pill and looked at it, she could guess that what was sealed inside the wax pill must be the lost property list of Rongan Hall. If her father had no intention of taking back those properties, he would not ask for the wax pill from her.

Since it was her own property, it was natural for her to return the banknote. .
"Daddy..."
Hua Xu nodded slightly, and without knowing when, his hands clenched tightly into fists, and said: "Earlier, your mother sent someone to deliver a letter back quickly, saying that you got news from Qin Tianjian, and the flood season will be advanced this year. I still don't believe it, but Seeing that the rain has been falling for a long time, the water level of the Xinjiang River has risen by nearly a foot. If this weather continues for another half month, floods are inevitable. The Xinjiang River Basin passes through six counties. There are many, and now I am the only one in Nanping County to rebuild river embankments..."
"Daddy..."
Seeing his daughter's depression, Hua Xu's tone softened and he said, "Don't think too much. Being a father is not about taking risks, but making decisions before you act. Did you know that at this time, Rong'an Tang is facing a leap forward?" This is a great opportunity. If you can take advantage of the situation and seize the opportunity to take back those lost properties, firstly, as a father, you will be worthy of the heroic spirit of your ancestors. Secondly, as a father, you can also lay a solid foundation for Rongantang, giving you and your brother a better life. future."
Hua Xu straightened his face and said: "There is no reason to allow the inheritance left by our ancestors to leak out. Whether you can take it back is one thing, and whether you can take it back or not is another thing. If you don't get it back, Feng Pei, of course there is nothing to worry about. Now that the opportunity has arrived, do you know that there is a holy saying that says, 'If the emperor does not take it, he will suffer the consequences'?"
In fact, he had already heard relevant matters from Hua Daoan and his son, Hua Yiren, and Fang, but now, he wanted to hear his daughter say it even more.
