C15 Who Ate the Stick?
Who ate the stick?
Xi Xiang, the big girl in the old lady's room, brought a bowl of soup over. Hua Hanyun hurriedly took it and personally served it to the Old Ancestor.
Zhang Mu's mother drank a few mouthfuls of ginseng soup, smiled lightly, and said: "Flowers, now that things have turned out like this, we women are no longer involved in anything! Cheng Dong will take over. The men of the county magistrate court will take care of it. You don't need to wait on me anymore. Go home and rest.
Your aunt's life, Jiangning Lu Family is a good family, big family, but they also have something bad to do! "
"Go, go! "Go busy, don't worry about me!" Hua Hanyun wanted to say something, but he felt that the time was not right. Today, Liang Shi's family had really screwed up, but of course no one would have expected the Lu Jia Zheng Ge'er to be so ruthless, decisive and unhesitatingly, it was truly powerful!
"Old Ancestor, take a good rest. I will go take a look. Elder sister only has this little brother from Pongo. I don't know how that child is doing, I don't want to take a look. I also don't feel good about it!" Hua Hanyun said, and was about to leave.
"Flowers!" Zhang Ye's mother gently raised her hand to stop her.
"Old Ancestor, do you have any other orders?"
Mother Zhang gently pressed her hands together, "Flowers, the matters of our Zhang Family are very complicated. As for the matters on the west side of the courtyard, it turns out that you are not in charge of it. Now it seems that Cui Da and the few servants can't handle it. In the future, you can control West Garden!
If the West Garden has everything under control, then you can take care of the other villas as well. At that time, I don't think anyone will be gossiping about it anymore!
These days, the heart is the most complicated, we women in the backyard, in fact, want to take care of the home. Every day, there would be trouble in the family. If someone made things difficult for them, the family would not be smooth sailing and would not be at peace. You can take care of your family, I'm sure of that, but not everyone in the ladies can. Go on, I'll leave the West Garden to you! Let the ladies see what you can do. "
Hua Hanyun came out from his mother's courtyard, and returned to his own courtyard, secretly pondering over what her mother had said.
"Old lady can't do anything to San-ge. Have you finally thought of me?" It's such a small matter in the West District, is it really that hard to come by? "
Hua Hanyun pondered for a while, then said: "Second Wife, old master got so angry today, even Hao Geer got a slap!"
"Huh?" Hua Hanyun was startled, she suddenly sat up from the chair and said: "Old master beat Hao Geer? "Oh my god, you're going to rot in my stomach." "… … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … …"
Cui Hong then said: "It is all because of that Lu fella, the unclean goods has already reported it to the official, the bailiffs are only here to take Zheng Geer away as a slave, while the young master of the Liu family is the defendant, the two of them going to jail at the same time, Liu Song was already half dead, if he goes to court now, his life will not be saved.
But someone had come from Xinhe County, Liu Song had a criminal record before, and the Eldest Grandma was begging him, how could the old master not be angry after finding out what happened? Making money is not a big deal. Hao Geer was rather loyal, and followed Eldest Grandma to the old master's place. You know his temper, the old ancestor has always pampered him, so how can the old master spout nonsense in front of him?
"It was a slap in the face that made him cry out for his parents in pain, causing the 'Mythical Abode Aqua Pavilion' to be thrown into chaos as if it was facing a great enemy."
Hua Hanyun quietly listened to what Cui Hong had to say, and suddenly let out a "chi" sound, and actually started laughing:
"Alright, there are so many interesting things to talk about these days! Go ask Hao Geer, the big miss and the others to wait in the courtyard of Eldest Grandma, tell them that I will go see Eldest Grandma later, and the Orange Country will arrange for a few capable women to go there, and serve them well. "
As Hua Hanyun spoke to Cui Hong, hurried footsteps suddenly came from outside.
Liang Shi took three steps forward as he bowed and said, "Second Wife, save me!"
Hua Hanyun glanced at the person in front of him and said: "Liang's sister-in-law, what are you doing here at this time? I was just about to go to Eldest Grandma's courtyard! "
Liang Shi's family handed over a sign with both hands, and said: "Second Wife, I will have to hand over this West Garden's identity plate to you. I had always wanted to hand it over to you, but with Sister Cui Da as an obstacle, after what the Old Granny said today, a burden has been lifted from my heart.
That Lu Zheng is a cunning and cunning master, but he can only use his authority of being half a master to show off his might to us servants. Second Wife you are in charge of West Garden, heh heh, this brat's good days are over!
Hua Hanyun frowned: "Liang's sister-in-law, what are you doing? You want to take over West Garden with me? This token, if a family does not say two things, then Lu Zheng this brat will be in my hands!
Hmph, in my Zhang Family, why would I be afraid of him? "Come, follow me to Eldest Grandma!"
"Oh right, call brother Xu Liang, Zhang De, and Zhang Tai over as well. Also, Liang's sister-in-law, go to the public accounts and pay a hundred silver. In addition, you will also receive two pieces of muslin, one for each side, one for each side, a box of lakeshore, and ten pieces of ink for Lu Zheng.
Just say that today's matter is because my Second Wife's family did not manage it properly, causing him to be frightened and wronged. Tell him, the Liu Family's Pongo is actually not an outsider. Today, a flood of water washed up the Dragon King's Temple, telling him to tear down your bill and bring Qi Biao back. Go, go! " Hua Hanyun was all smiles as she arranged matters for the Liang Shi family.
Liang Shi's family was stunned, and some of them still had not recovered their wits.
Didn't the Second Wife want to deal with Lu Zheng? Why did he send something over? Furthermore, this gift alone was worth a hundred silver coins and so much money. This was a treatment that even Hao Geer did not receive!
"Go, go, Liang's sister-in-law, is Second Wife's order wrong?" Cui Hong said from the side.
Only then did Liang Shi's family excitedly leave the courtyard. After she turned his head to carefully ponder about it, he felt cold sweat trickling down her back.
Second Wife was really good at doing things. She would stab him with a knife on one side and send him away with a smiling face and money on the other. After receiving the silver taels, Lu Zheng thought that he had struck it rich and had even made a profit. He probably did not expect even in his wildest dreams that he would lose his life!
This time, Second Wife had called Xu Liang, Zhang De, and Zhang Tai, the bunch of bastards over, with her scheming mind, wouldn't she be able to find a good plan?
Thinking of this, Liang Shi's family really wanted to slap themselves.
When he had instigated Liu Song, why didn't he think about it carefully? There was still three feet of hard soil in front of the beggar's door! What was wrong with Liu Song? It would be best if he could just wait for Lu Zheng to exit the Zhang Family residence and throw him directly into the river on the Xincheng River's Great Wall!
It was too late to regret! Liang Shi looked at the cards in his hand and sighed fiercely.
This pair of trump cards was power, and now that the West Garden's trump card was given to Hua Hanyun, his Liang Shi family was completely reduced to a lackey.
… ….
West Corner House was dead silent. Three houses in front and behind, without a single shadow to be seen.
Ying Er did not follow the Old Ancestor and the other wives back to the big girl Zhang Baoyi's courtyard. Instead, she looked around, but didn't see anyone. Instead, she sat in the courtyard with a sour feeling in her heart and couldn't help but cry.
"Zheng Geer is truly lucky, did she die just like that?"
"Some masters in the family really eat people without spitting out their bones. How weak are the Eldest Grandma's people? The Pongo is her lifeline, yet there was someone who used the Pongo to harm people! " The more Ying Er thought about it, the heavier her thoughts became.
She was not friends with Lu Zheng, not to mention that she did not really like him from the bottom of her heart. But he was such a living person, gone just like that, and her heart was clogged up with anxiety.
Last night, Ying Er was still accompanying him in his study reading the commentaries. She had finished the first essay in three days, and recited it back in a fluent manner, without the slightest error. Ying Er was extremely shocked, for the first time, feeling that with Lu Zheng's talent in comprehension, in the future, it was actually not funny for him to be a High Scholar or a Scholar.
Who would have thought …
Ying Er thought about her own situation again. She thought about how she had abandoned the old lady and told the Second Wife to follow Lu Zheng.
Third Master Hao Geer said that she wanted Ying Er to go to his room. The big girl in the young noble's room was Young Noble's bosom friend, a caring person, Qing Yao from Hao Geer Academy was still sleeping with him!
Ying Er stayed in Lu Zheng's room, what did it matter to him if he went to Hao Geer's room again?
As she thought about it, sadness rose in her heart, and a thought suddenly popped up in her mind: "Anyways, master is going to be despicable, and master is going to kill Zheng Geer, if I let them see me alive, I'm afraid that it will get in their way, rather than adding to their problems, I might as well just go and clean myself up."
"Ying Er?"
Just as she was lost in her thoughts, a familiar voice came from behind her.
"Ahh …"
She exclaimed, and as if stepping on a spring, she shot up.
She suddenly turned her head and saw that the person standing orderly behind her was not Lu Zheng, but who was it?
"Three... San Ye? "You …"
Her face was pale and speechless. Seeing Lu Zheng, it was as if he had seen a ghost. Didn't they say he was dead? Could it be that he met a ghost in broad daylight?
"I'm a little tired, rest in the bedroom for a while. Go and call Si Qi, Xiao Zhu and the others back, I let them go to the kitchen. I've finished eating, so there's no need to call me!" Lu Zheng said indifferently.
Ying Er nodded her head, she secretly pinched herself, feeling the pain, it did not seem like she was dreaming!
Her mood improved for no reason as she said, "Master San, it's good that you're fine. Aiya, your clothes are wet, it's raining outside! "I …"
Go and call Si Qi and the rest to deal with it! "Oh right, I read 'Mencius' tonight, so I still need you to teach me!" Lu Zheng said calmly.
Ying Er walked out of the West Corner House with light footsteps and headed to the kitchen. She discovered that Si Qi and the other two girls had already taken their food and were chatting with a few other servants and wives without a care in the world.
"I was scared silly at that time, we, San Ye, were very calm, and deserved Liu Song's challenge. San Ye had already warned him, and he still charged towards San Ye without any hesitation, is Qi Daye's stick for nothing?"
"With this swing, Pongo would not even have the time to groan, and would be sent flying. After landing, he would not be able to speak, and her entire body would twitch.
