So What If You've Been Reborn?

Chapter 253 Blood relatives

The dark clouds that had covered Yuzhou Mansion for a long time dissipated. After the weather cleared up, it became hotter every day.

Today is the closing performance of Tiancui Garden. If it gets hotter, the actors will not be able to wear their heavy clothes anymore. How can they sing well?Inside and outside the lobby of Tiancui Garden, many people sat.

Let’s just say that on the second floor, everyone is drinking herbal tea, shaking folding fans, wearing airy and thin robes, seeing the steward of the theatre, leading a group of people up the stairs graciously, they all stare in surprise——

Tiancuiyuan has stood firm in Yuzhou for many years. It is said that there are people behind him to support him, and he has all kinds of official relations and secret business.Ordinary high-ranking officials and nobles don't need several stewards of Tiancui Garden to go over to flatter them, right?

"It turned out to be Governor Chen. I haven't seen him for several years!"

Immediately, a squire recognized the middle-aged man in rich clothes and extraordinary bearing.

"Your Majesty the Sheriff is safe and well!" The person who reacted a little slower also quickly stood up and cupped his hands.

As for those who didn't know each other at all, and had never seen Junshou Chen, they had no choice but to stand up and salute meaningfully. After all, this was the ruling party with real power, and no one wanted to mess with him.

This made Chen He, who was sitting still, very abrupt.

Chen He chose the best seat, which was facing the stage. The only good seat that could be compared with this table was the other one next to it.

Just now, I came here to tell Chen He that the wealthy merchants in Wucheng, Dongning County, had the custom of occupying this table to chat and laugh with others. Now seeing this posture, they quickly gave up their positions, just wanting to sell themselves in front of the sheriff. a good one.

Governor Chen was obviously used to this kind of flattering treatment from everyone, and he didn't even give the businessmen a look.

He frowned and looked at Chen He, feeling displeased at first: Whose son is this, so rude.

Then he wondered if it was some kind of nobleman who came to Yuzhou to have some fun——Chen Junshou noticed that the stewards of Tiancui Garden around him didn't intend to persuade the young man, but instead showed embarrassment and bewilderment look.

It was obvious that they couldn't afford to offend that young man, but they didn't know the identity of the other party, and they couldn't remind Chen Junshou (the manager only knew the background. The boss behind Xu Jindou, they couldn't find out who Chen Ho was. The biggest official in Yuzhou is here, Xu Jindou They came over to flatter me with winks, and the stewards had no choice but to pretend not to know).

After two stalemates, the long follower who came with Chen Junshou couldn't help it: "Who is so rude to see the sheriff..."

Behind Chen Junshou, a white-bearded old man who looked like a staff member stopped the long follower with a smile: "There is no need to do that, Zhen Weng first returned to Yuzhou, he just came to listen to a play, this is not a yamen, so there is no need to say that."

The words were complete and full of grace.

Many scholars in the lobby downstairs felt that Junshou Chen must be a friendly official who doesn't put on airs.

On the contrary, the eyes cast on Chen He didn't have much good intentions. They thought the same as Chen Junshou: if this person is not a playboy with amazing background, he is born arrogant and doesn't know how to advance or retreat.

How could this kind of dark and unfriendly gaze affect Chen He in the slightest?

If it wasn't for Chen He's laziness for a while, and he didn't use cover-ups to cover up his appearance, and it wouldn't be easy to change it now, there probably wouldn't be any connection.

Chen Junshou looked at the young man and thought he looked familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him.

Behind him was Chen Xingniang, who was wearing a gauze hat, elegant clothes and no hairpin ornaments, she was the first to see the clue, she was shocked and pale: how could this person resemble his father Chen Junshou in appearance.

Chen He's face, related to his fate, of course, will not be exactly the same as others.

If his mother who died early was also here, it would be easy for others to pick out the similarities between Chen He and his wife from the faces of Junshou Chen and his wife, the eyebrows, the outline...

In other words, if there is a Taoist priest of the Heluo sect here, even if he is a half-baked person, he will definitely sigh a long time, "A good couple is not a person with a smooth life. They will be doomed and have incomplete relatives. If they survive the doom, they will die. But he was ruined, and his soul returned to the underworld early. As for the son, let’s not talk about it, he has all the shortcomings of the two of you, and I have never seen such a bad fate in my entire life.”

Such a family can get together, and any photographer with a little skill will be moved.

Then, it is estimated that this spectator will run away like a bastard—for a person with such a bad fate, it is common for relatives and friends to die together, and whoever gets close will be unlucky.

Chen Junshou came from a family, and he didn't know about the fact that capable physicists were unwilling or afraid to say such unpleasant things in front of him.

After sitting down at the next table, Chen Junshou was still suspicious of Chen He's somewhat familiar face.

"Zhen Weng." His aide said calmly, "I don't know if the Chen family has a branch somewhere else?"

"My family has been in Yunzhou for more than a hundred years..."

Chen Junshou's name was Chen Zhen, and Ding You hurried home more than three years ago, precisely because the Chen family in Yunzhou was destroyed by a fire, the ancestral house was completely burned, and the Chen family branch living nearby was also implicated.

It is not easy to separate the family from the first line of the family. Even if they are separated, they still live on the same street.

As the old saying goes, the same spirit connects the branches, that's what it is.

After being reminded by the staff, Chen Zhen finally sensed the key point, turned around and scanned the crowd, and found that some of the people who were drinking tea and listening to the opera on the second floor also had this kind of doubt in their eyes.

Just a little doubt, not sure.

Unless you are very familiar with Chen Zhen, you can only see that the two are somewhat similar.

Chen He is no longer the same Chen He who was the Governor of Chen left Yuzhou a few years ago, the shards of the small world have been fighting for 40 years, the memory of Venerable Li Yan in his previous life... All these have changed Chen He a lot, those similar in outline, It also became a little specious, and the staff saw Chen Zhen's hesitation, and immediately winked.

The long follower dragged the clerk of the theater to inquire secretly, but the clerk couldn't tell anything useful, so the long follower had to come back and shake his head to the staff.

Chen He sat still, and even the sneer on his face disappeared.

He tilted his head comfortably, as if he had already been engrossed in listening to the opera.

"Cough." The old man in the staff walked over with a pleasant smile, "Young master, can I take a seat here?"

Everyone upstairs was not in the mood to listen to the play, and they were all paying attention to the movement here.

Unexpectedly, that young man, whose origins were unknown to anyone, said bluntly, "Impossible."

"..."

Chen Zhen's staff was embarrassed for a while, and even more angry. He was old and had a little fame, but he came to be a staff officer only because he was not successful. He had never seen such an ignorant young man after many years in the officialdom.

Annoyed, the staff held back and just laughed at themselves: "It seems that the old man disturbed the young master."

There was a hint of impatience in the expressions of the demon cultivators, and just this clue was immediately noticed by the staff, and they were shocked.

In today's world, people pay attention to filial piety, filial piety and etiquette, not to mention other things, such an old man, standing and talking to others, the other party is still very rude, and the eyes of the people in the theater looked at Chen He became subtle.

And the impatience of the demon cultivators is not what Chen Zhen and the others thought "ignoring other people's gossip must come from extraordinary sources", but the real impatience——

Think about it, a mere mortal in his 50s, calling himself old in front of them.

This age is just a fraction of their age.

Even Chen He's bone age is about the same as this staff member.

This person seems to be polite, but in fact, under the watchful eyes of everyone, he is still relying on his elders to sell his elders, making it difficult for people to refuse, and relying on the Chen County Sheriff behind him, he wants to test Chen Ho.Otherwise, there wouldn't be a seat for this staff member beside Chen Junshou?

This approach was the best policy, but I met people who didn't buy it.

Chen He didn't even bother to answer this time, leaned back on the chair with his eyes half closed, and tapped lightly to the actor's singing.

After the staff found the steps for themselves, they walked back brazenly, and whispered to Chen Junshou: "The guards around that man should not be underestimated."

Chen Zhen thought more than his staff. He saw that although the people around Chen He were acting as guards, they just stood and didn't sit, but they didn't look too nervous, and they didn't look around, and watched the people around them vigilantly. .

Such guards are either neglecting their duties, or they feel that there will be no danger in their hearts.

Of course, there is a third possibility—they are all empty-handed. In fact, the people surrounded by them are quite capable and do not need their protection at all.

Thinking of this, Governor Chen's expression became gloomy again.

The other party obviously didn't want to talk to this side, it was useless to try, and the status of the people didn't buy it, and it was useless to think of a way, Chen Junshou simply put it aside and listened to the show.

After Yi Zhe He Han Nu sang, Chen He led his people away.

Chen Xingniang saw Chen Junshou's frown deepened, and couldn't help reminding in a low voice: "Father, didn't Mr. Song say that I have an older brother in my hometown in Yunzhou, who was lost in the early years..."

Mr. Song is the staff member who has been with Chen Zhen for many years, he quickly signaled Chen Xingniang to shut up, no matter how low the voice is, no one else can hear it, how can such an occasion be a private place?

Chen Zhen didn't take her daughter's words seriously at all.

He has a son, but that child is a fool, and he should be 22 years old this year. How could it be this person who doesn't look weak enough?

Chen Xingniang was fidgeting, and she couldn't explain why, she just felt flustered.

Just now that person didn't see him at all, but when she entered Tiancui Garden, she felt a wave of fear, and it wasn't until Chen Ho left that she got better.

Another drama was sung on the stage, when suddenly someone hurried in and whispered to Mr. Song, the aide, "People from the Zhong family heard that the sheriff has returned, and came to make trouble again."

"It's unreasonable for a foolish man and a foolish woman." Mr. Song frowned.

Chen Xingniang's husband Zhong Hu disappeared inexplicably, but the Zhong family insisted that it was Miss Chen who murdered her husband.

Chen Zhen was very impatient. He originally married his daughter because he was optimistic about Zhong Hu's ability.

Since life and death were unknown, the Zhong family called and said that Chen Xingniang was not sad when she wore a red hairpin. Chen Zhen was furious and simply asked her daughter to wear a filial piety to declare widowhood.

As for Zhonghu, of course he didn't look for it either.Chen Junshou said that his son-in-law died, and he must die if he is not dead.

Chen Xingniang has been a widow for two years, and in the spring of next year, Chen Zhen intends to marry her off again. Don't worry about the rich and powerful, those who have the ability to rise to the top, can still find scholars.

"Go and kick him out." Chen Zhen said lightly.

As long as he has an attitude, the Zhong family will not have a good time in Yuzhou.

When Chen He took his people back, he happened to see the yamen servants throwing a bunch of people into the street, and some of them did it directly, speaking viciously, which attracted a lot of people to watch.

"Young master, someone is following us."

Chen Ho had already discovered that the staff member was unwilling to give up, and even asked a few servants to follow them.

For mortals, the method of stalking is quite clever, but how can it be possible to hide the knowledge of monks?

"Who is this?" Chen He stopped towards those who were beaten and screamed.

The demon cultivators looked at each other, and after running out to inquire about it, they came back and said cautiously: "...I heard them yelling, it's the son-in-law's family of Chen Junshou, and it is said that the man from Zhong's family who married Miss Chen died for no apparent reason."

As soon as he said that, Chen Ho remembered that back in the capital, he, his senior brother, Venerable Huanjian, and saw people from the Zhong family in Yuzhou making a fuss about it. Those people were making a fuss in the front yard, and they ran to the study It was found out that the person who kidnapped Zhonghu was a member of the Chixia Sect in the Western Regions, that is, Fu Lieyun.

Chen He sneered, and walked away with his hands behind his back.

"Son..."

"You don't need to drive away, let the people behind follow. I want to see what tricks he can play."

Chen Ho used to walk around the Chen family, but he got the memory of Venerable Li Yan. After seeing with his own eyes how Li Yan killed Zhong Hu in his previous life, and how Chen Xingniang tried to poison himself, his original indifference changed. Killing intent.

Tiancui Garden was just a coincidence, if the Chen family didn't have a good eye to provoke him, let's get rid of the trouble once and for all.
