The Zhuang Mansion has been unusually quiet recently. Han Yan has not left the house. Zhuang Han Ming has come several times, but Han Yan always sends him away because she is tired. Qingqiu Garden is extremely deserted. She only heard that Zhou Shi and Mei Shi have been very close recently. But Da Zhou is most worried about her gradually becoming estranged from Zhuang Shi Yang.

"I don't know what the plan is. I'm really worried." Ji Lan couldn't help but complain. Indeed, this lukewarm dragging made it seem like some big conspiracy was brewing. Han Yan waved her hand indifferently: "It's not a big deal."

It's not their business, but let them do what they want. Zhuang Shi Yang was naturally expected to distance himself from Da Zhou after hearing what she said last time. Men, after all, want something new. Even if Zhuang Shi Yang likes Da Zhou so much, as long as it involves his own future, he will immediately separate from her.

You have to know the priorities.

Ji Lan suddenly said, "By the way, Miss, I have completed the task you asked me to do some time ago."

"So fast?" This was beyond Han Yan's expectations.

Ji Lan nodded: "Jiao Meng's brother has lost all the money in the family, and now the debt collector wants to use Jiao Meng's house as collateral."

Han Yan nodded: "In that case, I should go meet her."

In the largest gambling house in the capital, a thin young man was beaten out. There was blood on the corner of his lips, and it was obvious that he was seriously injured. However, he still shouted into the gambling house unwillingly: "You are going too far!"

"Go to hell!" The leading man, a pot-bellied man, stepped on his back and said, "Boy, go back and pack your things quickly. Your house has been mortgaged to me. Hahaha, I'll give you three days. If you still can't come up with the money, I'll come and take it back from you.

"My ancestral house!"
Chen Er said angrily: "I will win it back!"

The man looked as if he had heard a good joke. He raised his head and laughed: "Win it back? What can you win it back with? You don't even have money and you still want to gamble. Hahaha, I heard you have a sister...how about that?"

Chen Er was furious: "Don't even think about touching my sister!"

"Stop talking nonsense," the man frowned, "Get him out!"

The servants rushed forward and beat Chen Er out. Chen Er stumbled back to the old house, only to find that it was in ruins. It looked like it had just been robbed, and everything was in a mess. Chen Er was startled and stepped into the inner room.

He could hear the low sobbing of a woman and the crying of an old man. When he entered the house, he saw his sister Jiao Meng crying on the knees of her 80-year-old father. When Jiao Meng saw Chen Er, she stopped crying and immediately said angrily, "Why did you come back? Why don't you die?"

Chen Er lowered his head in silence. He had always been somewhat in awe of his sister. He then turned his eyes to his father for help. Old Chen loved his son the most. Seeing him like this, even though he was angry, he couldn't help but soften his heart.

He said to Jiao Meng: "Don't be angry, he is your brother after all."

Jiao Meng laughed in anger: "Brother? How could I have such a brother? He took the savings that the family had worked so hard to save to gamble, not to mention losing all the family property, and now he even lost our ancestral house. Father, don't you think about it? Without the house, where are you going to live? Is he going to take you to live on the streets?"
