Xiaoyao Nongjiazi
Chapter 80
Speaking of what happened later, although Jian Mingyu's tone was flat and his mood was fairly calm, his eyes were stained with melancholy, which hurt his kind.It was obvious that the second and third uncles had been plotted against.
It turned out that when Mrs. Zhang woke up early this morning, she found something was wrong. After a closer look, there was an extra person and a woman on the kang, is that okay?When she lifted the quilt, she saw her husband and a woman of unknown origin hugging each other naked, looking at the messy quilt and the unsightly marks on her body, she didn't need to think much about what happened to the two of them.
Seeing such a messy scene on her kang, Zhang's eyes were tearing apart. How could she maintain her gentle and soft image after being so stimulated?He didn't even have time to put on his clothes, so he cursed loudly, rushed forward recklessly, scratched and scratched at the woman, saw that she didn't respond, and slapped her hands fiercely.
After being treated so cruelly, the woman finally woke up from the beating. She was dazed and couldn't figure out the situation for a while. She protected her head instinctively and endured the anger from Mrs. Zhang.After she was fully awake, she would not be beaten unilaterally. Hearing the obscene words from Zhang's mouth, a cold light flashed in the woman's eyes, and she was about to scold. After the man, he understood the situation in an instant, stopped at his mouth, even stopped his thoughts of resistance, curled up his body to reduce the damage, gritted his teeth and kept silent, letting the woman with disheveled hair play around.
The space on the kang was already narrow, and there were two adults lying on it. Mrs. Zhang couldn't move, so she scratched and kicked with all her strength, which inevitably affected Zhong Zhengli.Under the dual stimulation of cold and fists, Zhong Zhengli also woke up.
The aftereffects of the hangover made him not very clear-headed, but no matter how muddy his mind was, Zhong Zhengli knew that the current scene was not right.He tapped his head to wake himself up, trying to recall how this happened, but there was no clue.
Seeing that her man had woken up, Mrs. Zhang let go of the woman, walked up to Zhong Zhengli out of breath, and asked, "Well, Zhong Zhengli, you go out to pick up a job, and you just bring a vixen back and treat me openly and squarely." Doing it on the kang, your conscience was eaten by dogs? Woohoo, I'm dead, is there any reason for this!"
Zhong Zhengli was so quarreled that his head hurt. He was already hungover, but now he felt even worse. He glanced at the woman who was huddled beside him. He was also very wronged, and he didn't know her at all. Freeze me to death? All right, let her put on her clothes first. The matter is not clear yet, and it will not end well if she kills her."
There was such a big commotion in the main room, not only the three Zhong Wen sisters, but even the waiters in the restaurant were quarreled.As soon as the door was opened, after the curses came to the ears, the guys were quite interesting, and immediately closed the door, pretending that they didn't hear anything.How can they see such scandalous things as the boss?The guys are not without worry, the boss will not fire them all, right?
"Eldest sister, parents and the others..." Little girls can't listen to such things, Zhong Yi's small face is full of anger.
"Don't listen, I'm going to sleep. Le'er, what about you, don't mess with your clothes." Zhong Wen's face was covered with frost, his brows were tightly frowned, and he held on to the unreasonable Zhong Le, who wanted to see the strange Zhong Le. Both sisters were tucked under the covers, as was she.
Zhong Wen clutched the bed sheet tightly with both hands, which showed how restless she was.What's going on here?She still wanted to live a good life, and she must not let that woman in.
Mrs. Zhang ignored Zhong Zhengli's words, and asked with red eyes, "Who is she?"
Zhong Zhengli is also involved in a lawsuit at the moment. He glanced at his daughter-in-law who had some demonic symptoms, and said patiently, "I don't know her. What do you think I did with her? You didn't notice it when you were sleeping next to her? Why did you sleep so well?" So dead? I was so drunk last night, what can I do on my own, where did this woman come from?"
Just now, Zhang's mind was completely occupied by anger, how could he have the time to think about it?Now, after being told by Zhong Zhengli, Mrs. Zhang has also come to her senses. She is not a lump of elm, and she can tell when she thinks about it, there are strange things everywhere.
First of all, how did this woman get in here?She originally thought that it was Zhong Zhengli who went out to pick her up while she was asleep, but what Zhengli said meant that the two of them didn't know each other at all.Thinking of being silent, someone walked in the door, Zhang felt a chill from the bottom of his heart, trembling all over, and even his teeth began to chatter.
"It's really going to kill someone if it freezes again, and you too. You're only wearing a coat, aren't you cold?" Things are already like this. Seeing that his daughter-in-law is not moving, Zhong Zhengli didn't care about being ashamed, so he got up and took it from the kang. A clean suit, dressed faster than ever.Various thoughts flashed through his mind, the most feared thing was that this woman had a strong background, otherwise, with the Baron, the third nephew, it should be settled with some money.
At a time like this, no one would have the intention to have evil thoughts about that woman. It's really outrageous to be like this now.Zhong Zhengli pushed the door out with a lot of thoughts in his heart. Before leaving, he turned his back to Mrs. Zhang again and said, "Clean her up properly, and then we will settle this matter properly."
"Okay." Mrs. Zhang trembled, and threw the clothes scattered all over the kang to the woman with a pale face, "Put it on yourself, look at your charming look."
The woman lowered her eyes, suppressed the overwhelming anger in her eyes, braced her somewhat stiff body, tried her best to calm her mind, and pulled her clothes on herself as fast as she could.The touch of the clothes made her a little dissatisfied, she had endured all of this, she hadn't lived enough, and she still had a lot of time to squander, so she couldn't spend it on it.
Seeing that the woman was dressed properly, Mrs. Zhang dragged her out of the room and locked her in a side room. In order not to let her freeze to death, she kindly lit a brazier.Thinking it was not safe, Mrs. Zhang went to find another bundle of rope, and tied the woman's hands behind her back to the chair.Before exiting the door, Mrs. Zhang felt a chill down her spine. Looking back, the woman drooped her head, everything was normal.
"What happened last night? Please explain the process in detail." Zhong Zhengli always felt that this matter was extraordinary.The woman neither resisted nor spoke, she couldn't even ask her identity, he had no clue.
"A man who claimed to be the servant of the Qian family sent you over and helped you to the kang. He went back after finishing his work." Although Mrs. Zhang hated Zhong Zhengli, she didn't make a fuss about it anymore. The matter has come to this point, the most urgent thing is to figure out the ins and outs of the matter.
"That's it." Zhong Zhengli got up and paced back and forth in the room, "Ask that woman again, which family she belongs to, and why she appeared in my house."
But that woman was very stubborn, no matter how much Mrs. Zhang interrogated her, she gritted her teeth tightly and did not speak.Seeing that she couldn't pry her mouth open, Mrs. Zhang had no choice but to back out. She can't act rashly now.Mrs. Zhang had just stepped out of the threshold with one foot, when a slightly hoarse voice came from behind.
"This is where?"
Mrs. Zhang turned around and looked down at the woman: "Have you figured it out? Which family do you belong to, how did you get in, and what is the purpose of doing such scandalous things?"
"Where is this place?" The woman raised her head and stared at Mrs. Zhang blankly.
No matter what Mrs. Zhang asked, the woman didn't answer, she just said a word over and over in her mouth.Mrs. Zhang scratched her head, really wanting to slap her again.Just thinking about it, Mrs. Zhang stopped suddenly, it's not good to be so violent, how could she have such a temper before?It seems that this incident hit her harder than she thought, and she didn't realize until this time that her mood today has been wrong.
Mrs. Zhang tried her best to calm the irritability rising in her heart, took a deep breath, and replied angrily: "Zhong Zhengli's family, do you have any impression?"
"Which state capital?"
The woman finally changed the question, but Mrs. Zhang was not happy at all. If it was different, the question meant the same thing, but the words were more specific.
"Pingyang County." Mrs. Zhang was a little impatient. She was originally a very patient person, but today she couldn't bear it.
"If you let me go, I can pretend that nothing happened. This is good for you and me. Do you really want to find my family and welcome me in?"
"I want to know your identity." Mrs. Zhang is not stupid. The woman in front of her is obviously also a victim. If she lets her go, if she turns around and makes trouble, it's better to detain her and run to the door by herself. They can't be blamed for this kind of scandal, and it's benevolent enough that she didn't ask her teacher to inquire about the crime.
"The Lu family on Hening Street, Lu Chang'an's eldest daughter, Lu Xiang'er."
"How do I know that what you said is true?" Mrs. Zhang was very vigilant.
"I have a silver lock on my body. The word Lu is engraved on the front and the word Xiang'er is engraved on the back. You can take a look."
Mrs. Zhang leaned over and took out the cleat from Lu Xiang'er's chest. After looking at it for a long time, she didn't understand it, so she took it off: "I can't read, so I'll ask someone to have a look. Don't worry, I'll check your lock. Identity, if you really want to do what you said, I will let you go later."
Zhong Zhengli took the silver lock and carefully identified it. After confirming that the words on it were "Lu Xiang'er", he said to Mrs. Zhang, "I'll go to Lu's house and ask."
Of course Zhong Zhengli wasn't that stupid, he just locked the door with the silver lock, didn't he just pretend to be self-inflicted?After arriving at the land, Zhong Zhengli quickly discovered that the Lu family was also a wealthy family, so it was no wonder that the woman was well dressed.If not, he wouldn't need to be so careful.I don't know what the purpose of the person behind him is, it's better to deal with this matter as soon as possible.
Zhong Zhengli found out from the neighbors in the neighborhood that the Lu family did have an eldest daughter named Lu Xiang'er, and that daughter was going out at the end of this year, and she was wearing a silver lock with her name engraved on her body.
Zhong Zhengli didn't go to Lu's house to inquire again, and turned around in a hurry to go home.The sooner this matter is resolved, the better, so as not to cause complications.He got involved with a girl who was about to leave the house. This is the rhythm of offending the two families at once. If something really happens, how can he behave?
Mrs. Zhang found a hat and put it on for Lu Xianger, and Zhong Zhengli drove her away.
Zhong Zhengli thought that this was the end of the matter, but he didn't expect that after a while, a group of people came to ask the teacher for their crimes.Zhong Zhengli and Mrs. Zhang, with the help of shop assistants, were still beaten with bruised noses and swollen faces.
Lu Jinggao sat at the top, patted the table with a livid face and shouted: "Zhong Zhengli, tell me, you raped my eldest daughter, what are you going to do?"
Zhong Zhengli sat down tremblingly, his buttocks were only half stretched, he opened his mouth and was about to speak, but the corner of his mouth was twitching in pain, but he couldn't do it, so he had to endure the pain and said: "Master Lu, tell me, as long as it's not too outrageous." I can fulfill your request."
Lu Jing turned the iron gall in his hand, pondered for a while and said, "I'll give you two choices, marry my eldest daughter, or go to court."
Zhong Zhengli frowned, pulled the wound again, almost exclaimed, and had no choice but to keep his face blank.He wondered in his heart whether this matter could be resolved. He didn't want either of the two options Lu Jing proposed, let alone the latter. Who would want to enter the yamen?The former will hinder the relationship between him and his wife. If he does this, his family will have no peace from now on.This is not the most important thing. The key point is that Zhong Zhengli is inexplicably afraid of that woman. If he really wants to welcome her in and face her every day, how will he live?
"You're a man, so don't be so grumpy. I've already given you the big girl, and you still don't like it?" Lu Jing's eyes widened, and his eyes were extremely sharp.
Being stared at like this, Zhong Zhengli's back was wet with sweat, he really didn't know what to say now.
Before Zhong Zhengli could figure out how to deal with it, Lu Jing made a decision for him: "Come here, bring the deed paper, pen, ink, paper and inkstone, my master wants to draw up a contract."
As soon as Lu Jing gave an order, someone quickly prepared everything, and within a short while, the contract was drawn up.Lu Jing picked up the deed and blew it, and when the ink was dry, he handed it to Zhong Zhengli: "I'm not going to lie with you either, just look at the terms, it's very simple, as long as you draw a bet on it, we two The family has become an in-law, so I won't pursue this matter any more."
Zhong Zhengli tremblingly picked up the deed, this posture, is he trying to force him to sign a pledge?After quickly sweeping through the treaties one by one, Zhong Zhengli's face became darker than ever.If you really want to draw a bet on it, it is no different from inserting a door upside down.Most of his family fortune will be under Lu Xiang'er's name. From then on, he has to act according to a woman's face, how can he bear it?
"Don't toast, don't eat fine wine." Lu Jing kept paying attention to Zhong Zhengli, seeing his appearance, he understood what he was thinking, his eyes slanted back, "Come on, come on rich."
"Master, I'll do it now, young one." Lai Gui and Lai Fu agreed in unison, and after speaking, they took a big stride and arrived behind Zhong Zhengli.
"What are you going to do? This is a violation of the law." Zhong Zhengli struggled vigorously, but to no avail. He could only watch helplessly as his thumb was stained with inkpad and pressed against the contract, leaving a bright red fingerprint.
"That's right, you have to ask for trouble." Lu Jing stepped forward and patted Zhong Zhengli, put away the contract, and went out with a big smile, "I'm just waiting to drink your wedding wine."
After being let go, Mrs. Zhang rushed directly into the main room. Her three daughters and their youngest son followed behind her. The shop assistants didn't dare to get too close, but they didn't dare to go far, and they all surrounded the main room.
"Zhengli, is what that person said true? Are you really a pawn?" At such a time, Mrs. Zhang couldn't care less about decency, and didn't even clean up, so she ran directly to Zhong Zhengli to confirm the answer.
Zhong Zhengli nodded blankly.
Mrs. Zhang suddenly lost all business, and sat down on the ground dejectedly.From then on, she didn't have the final say in the family, and even Zhong Zhengli had to be led by the nose.
"No, there is another way." Thinking of something, Mrs. Zhang rekindled hope in her eyes, "Zhengli, let's go back to my hometown to find my parents. Qingran has a title, so there must be a way to solve this matter."
Zhong Zhengli had thought about this a long time ago, but he really didn't know what to do. If he had no support, how dare Lu Jing do this?It is very likely that even if the third nephew is moved out, this matter will not be resolved, but if he does not try, how can he be reconciled?
"Let's go, prepare the car, let's go back to Hewan Village."
Zhong Zhengli was like this, but Zhong Zhengren was not much better.When Hong woke up early in the morning and saw that she was the only one on the kang, she thought Zhong Zhengren had woken up.Unexpectedly, she was busy working on the stove when she heard a "bang" slamming the door.Before Mrs. Hong stepped forward to check, Zhong Qing'an ran towards her angrily.
"what happened?"
"Mother, the study, the study..." Zhong Qing'an was ashamed to speak.
When Hong went in and took a look, his face suddenly became gloomy and terrifying.She was quite sensible, seeing that they couldn't wake them up, she just poured cold water on them. Since she dared to do such a thing, she deserved some punishment.
When Qian Yao woke up and saw such a scene, she screamed out, curled up in a corner with the quilt, her eyes were filled with fear.
Zhong Zhengren was also puzzled by Monk Zhang Er, what kind of evil did he commit, and how could such a thing happen?After he learned of Qian Yao's identity, he almost grabbed the ground with his head.Yesterday he was invited by Mr. Qian to have a wedding, and the next day, he was lying on the same kang with his daughter. How could he have the face to meet Mr. Qian?
Before Zhong Zhengren and his wife could figure out how to deal with it, the gate of the courtyard was clattered.
"Zhong Zhengren, come out." Qian Fuling yelled outside the door, almost scaring Zhong Zhengren's soul out.Seeing the Lord coming to the door, Zhong Zhengren had no choice but to put on his clothes and answer the door. From then on, the development of the matter was out of his control.
Looking at the mighty group of people, Zhong Zhengren's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, and he said preemptively: "Master Qian, you brought such a large group of people here early in the morning, why are you disturbing people's sleep?"
Seeing that the door was closed, Qian Fuling stepped forward, faced Zhong Zhengren face to face, and asked with red eyes: "Is my daughter here with you? What did you do to her?"
For the former question, Zhong Zhengren answered readily, but for the latter question, Zhong Zhengren hesitated and didn't know what to say.
"I misjudged you, who would have thought that you are this kind of person." Qian Fuling was so regretful that his intestines were green. If he had known this kind of thing would happen, he would definitely not associate with Zhong Zhengren.
"Master Qian, do I still want to ask you?" Zhong Zhengren pressed his forehead that was still aching, "I was so drunk yesterday that I fell unconscious and you sent someone to take me back. Why did I wake up so early in the morning?" Come, your daughter will appear at my house?"
"Wait, what are you talking about? Didn't your third brother send someone to pick you up last night?" Qian Fuling was at a loss.
Zhong Zhengren looked at Hong who was standing aside.Hong shi hastily explained what happened last night in detail.
"Madam Hong means that my servant will send him back?" Qian Fuling pointed to Zhong Zhengren to confirm again.
Hong Shi nodded.
Seeing this, Qian Fuling knew that something went wrong.
"Master Qian, how do you know that your daughter is with me?" Zhong Zhengren couldn't figure it out. When he first met Qian Fuling, he wondered if he had arranged this. Looking at the reaction of the person in front of him, he couldn't understand. A little uncertain again.
"This morning, the servant girl found that Yao'er was missing. I sent people to search everywhere. After learning the news from a little beggar, I brought people to look for it." Qian Fuling didn't hide anything. This matter has obviously deviated from his guess. , he had to think about how to end it.
After explaining everything, Qian Fuling took Qian Yao back home, followed by Zhong Zhengren.It was not a good time to deal with this matter, he had to figure out what was going on first.
"Master, do you have something to do with the younger one?"
"Your name is Baoshan?" Qian Fuling asked in a deep voice.
"Yes, the small one is Baoshan."
"Are you responsible for sending him back to the residence?" Qian Fuling asked, pointing at Zhong Zhengren.
Baoshan raised his head and looked carefully, then lowered his head and replied: "Yes, I remember very clearly that there was another person with this master, and the carriage was picked up by another person's family just as the carriage left the gate."
"Do you still remember what the man who took him from your hand looked like?" Qian Fuling's forehead twitched. It must not be a farce between brothers, otherwise, he might as well find a piece of tofu and kill him , if this is the case, wouldn't it be that he harmed his daughter?
"Remember." Baoshan was a little nervous, he didn't know if something went wrong, otherwise, why did the master ask him this?
"That's good, let's go, go to my third brother's house." Zhong Zhengren asked Hong Shi before, but she was too busy taking care of him, so she didn't pay much attention at all. People can't recognize him, but one thing is certain, for sure It's not the third brother's family. As for whether the third brother did it, it's hard for him to judge.Every step Zhong Zhengren took felt as heavy as a thousand weights, and he hoped that he was wrong.
Unexpectedly, when they arrived, Zhong Zhengli's family didn't even see a ghost. After asking the store clerk, they found out that their family had gone to Hewan Village.
A group of people moved their positions again.
Zhong Zhengren thought for a while, and brought Hong Shi with him when he went home, and they all headed towards Hewan Village.
Once the two brothers have confirmed each other, they know that they have been tricked.But who did it, they have no way of judging.The biggest suspects are Lu Jing and Qian Fuling, but no matter who they are, there are many things that don't make sense. First of all, it's the person who sent them home. Why did he bother?Without him, it doesn't seem to affect the subsequent actions at all, and everyone present can't figure it out.
After hearing Jian Mingyu's words, Zhong Qingran's eyes flickered and his lips were tightly pursed. It seemed that this matter was not simple. Zhong Zhengren and Zhong Zhengli had just separated, how long have they been in business?Moreover, the two of them are not brats, they will act impulsively when they are provoked by words, and it is unlikely to offend people to such an extent.Just like everyone else, Zhong Qingran couldn't figure out what the boy who sent the two uncles home wanted to do.
It turned out that when Mrs. Zhang woke up early this morning, she found something was wrong. After a closer look, there was an extra person and a woman on the kang, is that okay?When she lifted the quilt, she saw her husband and a woman of unknown origin hugging each other naked, looking at the messy quilt and the unsightly marks on her body, she didn't need to think much about what happened to the two of them.
Seeing such a messy scene on her kang, Zhang's eyes were tearing apart. How could she maintain her gentle and soft image after being so stimulated?He didn't even have time to put on his clothes, so he cursed loudly, rushed forward recklessly, scratched and scratched at the woman, saw that she didn't respond, and slapped her hands fiercely.

Seeing that the woman was dressed properly, Mrs. Zhang dragged her out of the room and locked her in a side room. In order not to let her freeze to death, she kindly lit a brazier.Thinking it was not safe, Mrs. Zhang went to find another bundle of rope, and tied the woman's hands behind her back to the chair.Before exiting the door, Mrs. Zhang felt a chill down her spine.

Zhong Zhengli took the silver lock and carefully identified it. After confirming that the words on it were "Lu Xiang'er", he said to Mrs. Zhang, "I'll go to Lu's house and ask."
Of course Zhong Zhengli wasn't that stupid, he just locked the door with the silver lock, didn't he just pretend to be self-inflicted?After arriving at the land, Zhong Zhengli quickly discovered that the Lu family was also a wealthy family, so it was no wonder that the woman was well dressed.If not, he wouldn't need to be so careful.I don't know what the purpose of the person behind him is, it's better to deal with this matter as soon as possible.
Zhong Zhengli found out from the neighbors in the neighborhood that the Lu family did have an eldest daughter named Lu Xiang'er, and that daughter was going out at the end of this year, and she was wearing a silver lock with her name engraved on her body.
Zhong Zhengli didn't go to Lu's house to inquire again, and turned around in a hurry to go home.The sooner this matter is resolved, the better, so as not to cause complications.He got involved with a girl who was about to leave the house. This is the rhythm of offending the two families at once. If something really happens, how can he behave?
Mrs. Zhang found a hat and put it on for Lu Xianger, and Zhong Zhengli drove her away.
Zhong Zhengli thought that this was the end of the matter, but he didn't expect that after a while, a group of people came to ask the teacher for their crimes.Zhong Zhengli and Mrs. Zhang, with the help of shop assistants, were still beaten with bruised noses and swollen faces.
Lu Jinggao sat at the top, patted the table with a livid face and shouted: "Zhong Zhengli, tell me, you raped my eldest daughter, what are you going to do?"
Zhong Zhengli sat down tremblingly, his buttocks were only half stretched, he opened his mouth and was about to speak, but the corner of his mouth was twitching in pain, but he couldn't do it, so he had to endure the pain and said: "Master Lu, tell me, as long as it's not too outrageous." I can fulfill your request."
Lu Jing turned the iron gall in his hand, pondered for a while and said, "I'll give you two choices, marry my eldest daughter, or go to court."
Zhong Zhengli frowned, pulled the wound again, almost exclaimed, and had no choice but to keep his face blank.He wondered in his heart whether this matter could be resolved. He didn't want either of the two options Lu Jing proposed, let alone the latter. Who would want to enter the yamen?The former will hinder the relationship between him and his wife. If he does this, his family will have no peace from now on.This is not the most important thing. The key point is that Zhong Zhengli is inexplicably afraid of that woman. If he really wants to welcome her in and face her every day, how will he live?
"You're a man, so don't be so grumpy. I've already given you the big girl, and you still don't like it?" Lu Jing's eyes widened, and his eyes were extremely sharp.
Being stared at like this, Zhong Zhengli's back was wet with sweat, he really didn't know what to say now.
Before Zhong Zhengli could figure out how to deal with it, Lu Jing made a decision for him: "Come here, bring the deed paper, pen, ink, paper and inkstone, my master wants to draw up a contract."
As soon as Lu Jing gave an order, someone quickly prepared everything, and within a short while, the contract was drawn up.Lu Jing picked up the deed and blew it, and when the ink was dry, he handed it to Zhong Zhengli: "I'm not going to lie with you either, just look at the terms, it's very simple, as long as you draw a bet on it, we two The family has become an in-law, so I won't pursue this matter any more."
Zhong Zhengli tremblingly picked up the deed, this posture, is he trying to force him to sign a pledge?After quickly sweeping through the treaties one by one, Zhong Zhengli's face became darker than ever.If you really want to draw a bet on it, it is no different from inserting a door upside down.Most of his family fortune will be under Lu Xiang'er's name. From then on, he has to act according to a woman's face, how can he bear it?
"Don't toast, don't eat fine wine." Lu Jing kept paying attention to Zhong Zhengli, seeing his appearance, he understood what he was thinking, his eyes slanted back, "Come on, come on rich."
"Master, I'll do it now, young one." Lai Gui and Lai Fu agreed in unison, and after speaking, they took a big stride and arrived behind Zhong Zhengli.
"What are you going to do? This is a violation of the law." Zhong Zhengli struggled vigorously, but to no avail. He could only watch helplessly as his thumb was stained with inkpad and pressed against the contract, leaving a bright red fingerprint.
"That's right, you have to ask for trouble." Lu Jing stepped forward and patted Zhong Zhengli, put away the contract, and went out with a big smile, "I'm just waiting to drink your wedding wine."
After being let go, Mrs. Zhang rushed directly into the main room. Her three daughters and their youngest son followed behind her. The shop assistants didn't dare to get too close, but they didn't dare to go far, and they all surrounded the main room.
"Zhengli, is what that person said true? Are you really a pawn?" At such a time, Mrs. Zhang couldn't care less about decency, and didn't even clean up, so she ran directly to Zhong Zhengli to confirm the answer.
Zhong Zhengli nodded blankly.
Mrs. Zhang suddenly lost all business, and sat down on the ground dejectedly.From then on, she didn't have the final say in the family, and even Zhong Zhengli had to be led by the nose.
"No, there is another way." Thinking of something, Mrs. Zhang rekindled hope in her eyes, "Zhengli, let's go back to my hometown to find my parents. Qingran has a title, so there must be a way to solve this matter."
Zhong Zhengli had thought about this a long time ago, but he really didn't know what to do. If he had no support, how dare Lu Jing do this?It is very likely that even if the third nephew is moved out, this matter will not be resolved, but if he does not try, how can he be reconciled?
"Let's go, prepare the car, let's go back to Hewan Village."
Zhong Zhengli was like this, but Zhong Zhengren was not much better.When Hong woke up early in the morning and saw that she was the only one on the kang, she thought Zhong Zhengren had woken up.Unexpectedly, she was busy working on the stove when she heard a "bang" slamming the door.Before Mrs. Hong stepped forward to check, Zhong Qing'an ran towards her angrily.
"what happened?"
"Mother, the study, the study..." Zhong Qing'an was ashamed to speak.
When Hong went in and took a look, his face suddenly became gloomy and terrifying.She was quite sensible, seeing that they couldn't wake them up, she just poured cold water on them. Since she dared to do such a thing, she deserved some punishment.
When Qian Yao woke up and saw such a scene, she screamed out, curled up in a corner with the quilt, her eyes were filled with fear.
Zhong Zhengren was also puzzled by Monk Zhang Er, what kind of evil did he commit, and how could such a thing happen?After he learned of Qian Yao's identity, he almost grabbed the ground with his head.Yesterday he was invited by Mr. Qian to have a wedding, and the next day, he was lying on the same kang with his daughter. How could he have the face to meet Mr. Qian?
Before Zhong Zhengren and his wife could figure out how to deal with it, the gate of the courtyard was clattered.
"Zhong Zhengren, come out." Qian Fuling yelled outside the door, almost scaring Zhong Zhengren's soul out.Seeing the Lord coming to the door, Zhong Zhengren had no choice but to put on his clothes and answer the door. From then on, the development of the matter was out of his control.
Looking at the mighty group of people, Zhong Zhengren's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, and he said preemptively: "Master Qian, you brought such a large group of people here early in the morning, why are you disturbing people's sleep?"
Seeing that the door was closed, Qian Fuling stepped forward, faced Zhong Zhengren face to face, and asked with red eyes: "Is my daughter here with you? What did you do to her?"
For the former question, Zhong Zhengren answered readily, but for the latter question, Zhong Zhengren hesitated and didn't know what to say.
"I misjudged you, who would have thought that you are this kind of person." Qian Fuling was so regretful that his intestines were green. If he had known this kind of thing would happen, he would definitely not associate with Zhong Zhengren.
"Master Qian, do I still want to ask you?" Zhong Zhengren pressed his forehead that was still aching, "I was so drunk yesterday that I fell unconscious and you sent someone to take me back. Why did I wake up so early in the morning?" Come, your daughter will appear at my house?"
"Wait, what are you talking about? Didn't your third brother send someone to pick you up last night?" Qian Fuling was at a loss.
Zhong Zhengren looked at Hong who was standing aside.Hong shi hastily explained what happened last night in detail.
"Madam Hong means that my servant will send him back?" Qian Fuling pointed to Zhong Zhengren to confirm again.
Hong Shi nodded.
Seeing this, Qian Fuling knew that something went wrong.
"Master Qian, how do you know that your daughter is with me?" Zhong Zhengren couldn't figure it out. When he first met Qian Fuling, he wondered if he had arranged this. Looking at the reaction of the person in front of him, he couldn't understand. A little uncertain again.
"This morning, the servant girl found that Yao'er was missing. I sent people to search everywhere. After learning the news from a little beggar, I brought people to look for it." Qian Fuling didn't hide anything. This matter has obviously deviated from his guess. , he had to think about how to end it.
After explaining everything, Qian Fuling took Qian Yao back home, followed by Zhong Zhengren.It was not a good time to deal with this matter, he had to figure out what was going on first.
"Master, do you have something to do with the younger one?"
"Your name is Baoshan?" Qian Fuling asked in a deep voice.
"Yes, the small one is Baoshan."
"Are you responsible for sending him back to the residence?" Qian Fuling asked, pointing at Zhong Zhengren.
Baoshan raised his head and looked carefully, then lowered his head and replied: "Yes, I remember very clearly that there was another person with this master, and the carriage was picked up by another person's family just as the carriage left the gate."
"Do you still remember what the man who took him from your hand looked like?" Qian Fuling's forehead twitched. It must not be a farce between brothers, otherwise, he might as well find a piece of tofu and kill him , if this is the case, wouldn't it be that he harmed his daughter?
"Remember." Baoshan was a little nervous, he didn't know if something went wrong, otherwise, why did the master ask him this?
"That's good, let's go, go to my third brother's house." Zhong Zhengren asked Hong Shi before, but she was too busy taking care of him, so she didn't pay much attention at all. People can't recognize him, but one thing is certain, for sure It's not the third brother's family. As for whether the third brother did it, it's hard for him to judge.Every step Zhong Zhengren took felt as heavy as a thousand weights, and he hoped that he was wrong.
Unexpectedly, when they arrived, Zhong Zhengli's family didn't even see a ghost. After asking the store clerk, they found out that their family had gone to Hewan Village.
A group of people moved their positions again.
Zhong Zhengren thought for a while, and brought Hong Shi with him when he went home, and they all headed towards Hewan Village.
Once the two brothers have confirmed each other, they know that they have been tricked.But who did it, they have no way of judging.The biggest suspects are Lu Jing and Qian Fuling, but no matter who they are, there are many things that don't make sense. First of all, it's the person who sent them home. Why did he bother?Without him, it doesn't seem to affect the subsequent actions at all, and everyone present can't figure it out.
After hearing Jian Mingyu's words, Zhong Qingran's eyes flickered and his lips were tightly pursed. It seemed that this matter was not simple. Zhong Zhengren and Zhong Zhengli had just separated, how long have they been in business?Moreover, the two of them are not brats, they will act impulsively when they are provoked by words, and it is unlikely to offend people to such an extent.Just like everyone else, Zhong Qingran couldn't figure out what the boy who sent the two uncles home wanted to do.
