Hanzhi's yard is still empty. No one has lived in it. It is full of weeds, and Hanzhi's knees are high.

Han Ruyan ordered people to help clean.

Although Hanzhi's relationship with his family is average, it has to be said that staying at home is still much more comfortable than staying at the Hou Mansion.

The first is diet, which is much better.

Another servant in the mansion also respected Hanzhi very much.

Unlike those old people in the Hou Mansion, who relied on their elders to support their old age, especially after Hanzhi became ill, they treated Hanzhi's nose as his nose, and his eyes as his eyes.

Originally Hanzhi wanted the chief guard at home to teach him martial arts, but he went out to do business with the eldest son Han Fugui.

Han Fugui's name was chosen by Han's father because he hoped that the other party would be rich and powerful and inherit his family business.

Han Min's name was chosen by Han's father, who asked a scholar to help him choose it, in order to have a name that looked like a cultured person, which would facilitate his career in the future.

Han Ruyan's name was given by Mrs. Zheng. Father Han never cared about his daughter's name.

The name Hanzhi is taken from the branches of the branches, and some concubines are called Hanhuaer, Hanyeer and other names.

After all, flower names such as peony are the names of brothel girls.

Most of these, Qiu Ju, Xia Lan, are the names of servants.

"Miss, we are finally home."

Qiu Ju looked at the brand new yard. Although it was a little different from what it had been cleaned three years ago, the general layout was still similar.

Returning to the familiar yet unfamiliar environment, Qiu Ju felt only moved.

Qiu Ju used to think that the master was very bad, but now Qiu Ju feels that no matter how bad the master is, he is not as vicious as the family in the Hou Mansion.

There aren't that many rules in this mansion.

As soon as she returned here, Qiu Ju felt her whole body relaxed a lot.

"Yes! We are finally home."

Hanzhi also sighed a little.

Although Father Han is snobbish, he is definitely much kinder than the old lady.

In any case, no one lives in this yard, which proves that Han's father definitely has some feelings for Han Zhi.

"Yeah, we're going home."

Hanzhi smiled slightly, a trace of determination flashed in his eyes.

She knew that if she wanted to live a good life in this era, she had to rely on herself.

And she would never let anyone bully her.

"Qiu Ju, go and make arrangements. I want to meet with the housekeeper and find out about the situation at home."

Hanzhi ordered.

"Yes, miss."

Qiu Ju agreed and went down to make arrangements.

Hanzhi sat on a chair, looked around, and secretly vowed to set a small goal first, to buy a small yard.

…………

In the Hou Mansion.

"It's such a hot day! How can I eat this without any ice?"

Gu Changpo knocked down several plates of vegetables in front of him and said angrily.

The boy next to him hurriedly went up to comfort him: "Master, just bear with it! You can eat chicken drumsticks when my wife comes back from her illness, and we can also have ice by then."

"Why, I am the future owner of the Hou Mansion. It has been more than a month, and no new clothes have been made for me. She is just a humble girl, and she can still climb on my head."

Gu Changpo said very angry.

In the past, every time he went to school, he would bring countless exquisite pastries with him to share with his classmates.

Even if it doesn't help, the boy and the maid who are following him will also eat some.

And now, as the master, Gu Changpo has eaten like this.

Not to mention the maids and servants around him.

Gu Changpo angrily took the maid and servant to find trouble with Aunt Liu. Although Aunt Liu said she was an aunt, she was actually a slave.

Gu Changpo is naturally not afraid.

He was only afraid of Hanzhi. Hanzhi disciplined him every day, and it was his mother. Being disrespectful to Hanzhi was unfilial. Gu Changpo knew this clearly. Although he was unhappy in his heart, he did not dare to offend Hanzhi. of.

Gu Changpo has been enduring it for a long time. Hanzhi was there before, so he endured it.

When Hanzhi was around, he could still eat a chicken drumstick.

As soon as Hanzhi left, he didn't even have a chicken leg, and the ice was gone, which was unbearable.

Now the food supply in the entire Hou Mansion has dropped.

Even three years ago, my food had never been so bad.

Except for the old lady, Gu Changpo and Liu Zhi, everyone else can only eat brown rice.

It was very rough and cut my throat, making it difficult to swallow.

Normally, only civilians would eat this kind of rice.

People who are used to eating good rice will naturally not be used to it for a while.

But there was no other way. In order to let Gu Yunzhu get married in a grand manner, Liu Zhi tried every means to get together 10,000 taels of silver. Her mother and father lent the money to her.

So the food in this family is naturally very poor.

Liu Zhi used to think that if she could manage the house, she would definitely be able to do better than Han Zhi.

Hanzhi married into the Hou Mansion with millions of dollars back then.

In just three years, it was all squandered by the Hou Mansion, and the most valuable shop is now in the hands of the second master.

The second master was very stingy. When his sister got married, he didn't pay a penny and only gave her a few boxes of rouge.

The second master took over the shop and only gave the family one thousand taels of silver every month.

This thousand taels cannot maintain the old lady's luxurious life at all.

And now, the old lady actually forced Liu Zhi to empty her family fortune.

Willow Branch naturally requires all kinds of frugality.

Liu Zhi felt that this aunt was not as good as she thought.

Now Liuzhi only hopes that Hanzhi can go back to her parents' house and get some money, otherwise, she will not be able to survive this life. This is her biggest hope now.

But Liu Zhi thought of the scene of Grandma Gui taking people to move things in Han Zhi's yard. Liu Zhi had a question mark in her heart as to whether Han Zhi was willing to come back.

Even she felt that the old lady had gone too far. She just did it deliberately because she saw that Hanzhi was in poor health and might have been disabled. Maybe she just wanted to drive Hanzhi away.

I feel that Hanzhi has no money.

But those shops owned by Gu Yundian all belong to Hanzhi.

If the Hou Mansion looks so ugly, will anyone marry here with a large dowry?

Liu Zhi didn't understand what the old lady was thinking.

Fortunately, Gu Yundian is now rich and easy to talk to. He pays the people in his yard himself, which saves another expense.

If she endures it a little longer and Gu Yundian gives her money next month, her life will be better.

But the weather is really too hot.

Liu Zhi frowned and said to the maid next to her: "Why don't you fan yourself? Don't you know how hot it is now?"

In order to save money, Liuzhi now only provides ice to the old lady, and she does not even provide ice for herself.

"Auntie, I have been fanning for two hours. My hands are numb and I really have no strength left."

The maid said pitifully to the willow branch.

But this does not arouse the slightest sympathy from Willow Branch.

Just as Liuzhi was about to teach the maid a lesson, the door was suddenly kicked open.

"It's so majestic! It's only been a few days since it flew on the branch, and now it's already abusing its servants."

Gu Changpo stood outside the door and sneered coldly at Willow Branch.
