The wealthy man who wears books

Qin Huai had just questioned Zhong Xin, but his eyes noticed Ju Sheng under him. All of a sudden, various scattered fragments in his mind were connected together again, from the time when he and Ju Sheng had just drank the sugar water, to the unbearable suffering in the mourning hall. , and finally came to the Four Seasons Brocade, and recalled all the scenes where Zhong Xin asked him to water the flowers.

So now Lao Qi poured cold water on his head, thinking it was to wake himself up earlier.

"Sister-in-law, it's not that Lao Qi intends to be abrupt, it's because the sugar water that sister-in-law and Ju Sheng just drank was drugged again, so there is no choice but to do so."

Zhong Xin still explained something to Qin Huai, although he and his heart already understood it.

Qin Huai nodded, but bent down and touched Ju Sheng's forehead.

"I naturally understand Uncle's intentions. Just now, the medicine was very overbearing. I only drank that much, and I felt a little helpless. Jusheng drank such a large amount, I'm afraid it's not enough just to shower with cold water. Although he is quieter now, his body is still burning."

After hearing what he said, Zhong Xin put down the watering can and said:

"I'm also thinking about cooking something refreshing for him. I've taken care of both the inside and the outside. I guess he can get better soon."

As he said that, he picked up Jusheng, walked quickly back to the bedroom, and put him on his bed.

Qin Huai's mind is much clearer now, looking at his drenched filial piety, remembering the experience of jumping from the window and climbing the wall in Lao Qi's room that day, he subconsciously glanced at his foot that had not fully recovered.

I really can't enter this little uncle's room at will.

It's just that he still had a very important thing to say to Zhong Xin, so he walked slowly to Zhong Xin's window and said slightly:

"It's so hard for uncle to take good care of Jusheng. I don't go in because I'm worried about that villain, so as not to be slandered behind someone's back. There is only one sentence, I think I should tell my uncle before leaving Not too late."

Zhong Xin in the room seemed to be taken aback for a moment, and then said in a low voice, "Sister-in-law, please tell me."

Qin Huai took a deep breath.

Although his mind has cleared up a bit, the feeling of being tormented in oil just now is still fresh in his memory.And these are just the medicines that I took at Zhong's house, and they are not enough to be fatal.But what if one day you meet a fatal one?

"Uncle, when you asked me those words on the road, although I said it tactfully, I think you must have understood it. Although Si Shi Jin is good at changing, it is a flower that belongs to the inner house woman. I couldn't compare it with it. Grandpa’s funeral is almost done now, thinking that I am a widow with no offspring, so I must abide by the family rules and leave the Zhong family.”

Speaking of this, Qin Huai paused for a while, and Zhong Xin in the window seemed to also give a soft "hmm".

"Just before I leave, I still want to say that I know my uncle. I want to thank my uncle for taking care of me these days. Although the wind and rain in Pochunyuan are heavy, I can still be at ease. It is the situation like Baolun Temple, and it is my uncle who is with me. After getting through it, I still remember it clearly in my heart. It is my good fortune to want to visit you and my uncle and sister-in-law. It’s just that the fate of people in this world, whether there are long or short, is a definite number. Now I only hope that my uncle can keep it in the future. When the clouds bloom and the moon shines, there will be a flower blooming and wealth waiting for uncle!"

Zhong Xin in the room was speechless for a while after hearing Qin Huai's words.

Qin Huai said these words to Zhong Xin just in time, it's not like he did it rashly.

Seeing that Zhong Ren's funeral had come to the final day of funeral and burial, it took only three or two days.According to the Zhong Clan's rules, the next step is to discuss his ownership.

And at this juncture, the second room couldn't hold back any longer, and even wanted to introduce a drama of defeat and morality to Zhong Xin and himself. It can be seen that in the hearts of this group of people, he has not only become an opponent, but also an opponent attacking the old seven. a chess piece.

After all, it is no secret in the Zhong family that Zhong Xin likes men.But in Po Chunyuan, the lonely man and widow, and Li Xia's situation in the melon field naturally gave the opponent all kinds of opportunities to take advantage of.

So no matter what, out of emotion and reason, for himself and others, Qin Huai finally didn't want to stay in this filthy Zhong's house anymore.Even in the depths of my heart, I can't help flashing all kinds of benefits that Zhong Xin has done to me, but when I think of the viciousness behind his honest face, the warmth that occasionally makes his heart flutter, it immediately blows away.

Seeing that Zhong Xin hadn't said a word for a long time, Qin Huai said softly again:

"If there is no saying in the Rili clan, everyone will be separated from mountains and rivers, and I hope that uncle will take good care of Jusheng's child. It is not easy to have someone who stabs a friend in this deep house. Even me, I really miss him."

Zhong Xin's deep voice came from the room.

"Since I'm reluctant, and what's the use of saying so much, it's better not to say a word, it's more refreshing."

Although his words were only a short sentence, Qin Huai blushed instantly, and for a moment, he didn't know what to say.

"Sister-in-law is going to leave, so please go back now. For me, it's more important to cook medicine for chrysanthemum now. After all, everything in this world has to be done before the present. How can we be sure about the future... ...If you say go, you must go."

When Zhong Xin said the last sentence, his voice was extremely low, and Qin Huai couldn't hear it clearly. He just stood outside the window for a while, shook his head, and finally turned around and left.

*******************************

These few days were approaching the day of Zhong Ren's funeral, and the whole family was very busy, waiting for the young master to be buried in the coffin, so they could relax a bit.

The third young master Zhong Li's injuries were treated by Western doctors, and he recovered very quickly. He also came here to the mourning hall this evening, saying that he wanted to burn paper and burn incense for his elder brother.

This really came as a surprise to the members of the Zhong family.

After all, in the living room that day, when Que'er told the story of the past, everyone felt that Zhong Ren, the elder brother of the house, had really become perverted to the point of shamelessness.

It’s nothing more than bullying men and women, and entrapping those wives and concubines before, but when the lust is on the brain, even his own roommate is not spared. In order to spy on his adultery, he can personally give Zhong Li a drug. I don’t know why Zhong Li is going to offer sacrifices to him with such an elder brother.

When Zhong Li came up with this idea, it happened that He Yiru was accompanying Zhong Jiu and his granddaughter, visiting Zhong Li at his residence.As soon as he said that he was going to offer incense to Zhong Ren, He Yiru and Zhong Jiu exchanged glances, both with surprised and puzzled expressions on their faces.

Zhong Li's face was calm, as if he had thought about this matter in his heart for a long time, after He Yiru dissuaded him, he didn't say much, but only asked the girl to bring him clothes.

He Yiru knew that the third son's temperament had always been like this, seemingly quiet and undisputed, but he was extremely stubborn in some things.At this time, if you want to go, even eight big horses will not be able to turn back.

Accompanying Zhong Jiu to visit Zhong Li was Zhong Jiu's granddaughter, Zhong Feihong who played the violin at Zhong Yu's birthday party.

Speaking of visiting Zhong Li, it turned out that this was not the first time she came today.Instead, after Zhong Li was injured, he often came to the third young master's place, not only talking with him, but also playing the violin for him to relieve his boredom.

It's just that when Zhong Feihong came to visit Zhong Li on weekdays, most of them sneaked over behind his grandfather Zhong Jiu's back.

Because Zhong Jiu had privately told her several times that there were many people in the Zhong family with mixed hearts, strange behaviors, and a lot of romantic stories, so she was warned not to have too much contact with the three or six members of the Zhong family.

Zhong Feihong was eighteen years old, just when the young girl's heart was sprouting, and coupled with the experience of studying abroad, she liked freedom of sex, and she had long ago decided to find a lover by herself.Although her grandfather forbade her to have close friendships with the descendants of the Zhong family, she fell in love with the elegant and handsome third young master Zhong Li early on, and couldn't extricate herself.

Although after Zhong Li was stabbed by Que'er, everyone in the clan knew about his relationship with Ban'er and being framed by Zhong Ren.But in Zhong Feihong's heart, she only felt that this man who had such a sad experience made her feel more distressed and moved inexplicably.

Therefore, these days, whenever she has free time, she would sneak to Zhong Li's side. After a long time, Zhong Li saw that this girl was young and lovely, and she had a foreign air and generous taste, which was similar to that of the attackers in the house around her. All scheming women are different, so they gradually let go of their hearts, and the two of them talked more and more speculatively.

Seeing that in a few days, it would be time for Zhong Feihong to return to France to continue his studies.She couldn't bear Zhong Li in her heart, so she came more often these few days.

When Zhong Li heard that she was going to leave for France, Fang Fang was in a more cheerful mood, and unknowingly became a little depressed, and had suffered from insomnia for several nights.

Now, seeing his mother and Zhong Jiu here, he made up his mind and took the initiative to go to Zhong Renling to offer incense.

He Yiru couldn't resist his temperament in the end, so he, together with Zhong Jiu's grandfather and grandson, supported the little girl Rui'er on the shoulders, and accompanied Zhong Li to Bochun Garden.

Hearing that the eldest wife, the third young master and others were coming, Qin Huai and Zhong Xinjusheng hurriedly took their servants together and waited in the mourning hall.

As for any novel news about any room in the Zhong family, it spread quickly.

Hearing that the third young master decided to burn incense in front of Zhong Ren's spirit regardless of the eldest wife's objection, the second and third wards here felt that this was a bit unusual.After a few private phone calls, they seemed to be in agreement, but they all married in Bochun Garden in the name of burning evening incense.In the past few days, the Zhong family members have never been so neat.

He Yiru sees that although a mourning hall has been set up in Bo Chunyuan, people come and go, and there are many miscellaneous things.However, Zhong Xin, Qin Huai, Jusheng and the others were able to arrange it properly and thoughtfully, and there was no such thing as the Zhong family's normal behavior of chaotic servants, maids and mothers-in-law bickering with each other, so they couldn't help but secretly nodded to Zhong Jiu.

Taking risks by himself, and boldly pushing Lao Qi to the top position, Da Fang did not show a complete defeat, but had some potential to make a comeback.This move is considered correct.Although how to deal with this chess piece in the future is a difficult problem, but under the imminent need, he has to look at the present for a while.

Zhong Li was dressed in a black gown with a calm face. He walked slowly to Zhong Ren's spirit, but he only looked at Zhong Ren's spiritual seat quietly, and did not rush to light the incense in his hand and pay respects.

Everyone was secretly surprised that the mourning hall, which was a little noisy at first, gradually became almost silent.

Qin Huai stood aside, but his eyes were attracted by Zhong Feihong's eyes.I saw the girl's beautiful eyes flickering, but she almost put all her energy on Zhong Li.

As soon as Qin Huai's heart moved, he knew that this girl must have fallen in love with Zhong Li.

Qin Huai knew that in his clock clan, there was a rule that young men and women could fall in love and marry each other if they had only the same family name and no close blood relationship, even if they were cousins.

However, Zhong Li and Zhong Feihong were only relatives with the same surname, so they were not that close.The two are about the same age, male and female, if they really love each other, it will be considered a good marriage.It's just that I'm about to leave, even if it's a good marriage, I can't see it in the end.

He was thinking wildly, but saw Zhong Li holding a stick of paper incense in both hands, clasped his hands together, and suddenly opened his mouth.

"Brother, Zhong Li is here to burn a stick of incense for you."

His voice was faint, but there was a strange thing in it, which seemed both sad and mocking.

"Brother, in fact, at this moment, you probably didn't expect that I would come to burn incense and see you off. To be honest, I didn't want to come here at first, because as long as I think of your spiritual position that I want to see, I can think of your spiritual position." This way, I will feel disgusting in my heart!"

In an instant, expressions of surprise or horror appeared on the faces of everyone in the mourning hall.

Ever since Qin Huai made it clear to Zhong Xin outside the window that day that he had to leave, the two of them hadn't had much contact in the past few days, even if they met occasionally, Zhong Xin remained the same as before, without saying a word .

At this moment, hearing Zhong Li's sudden words, Qin Huai subconsciously looked at Lao Qi who was on the side.Unexpectedly, at this time, Zhong Xin happened to be looking at this side too, the two of them looked at each other and turned their heads quickly.

Zhong Li opened his mouth quietly again.

"It's just that, this time, even if I feel disgusted by you again, I still want to come. Because I'm here to thank you."

Zhong Li suddenly smiled slightly, turned his head slightly, and his eyes fell on Zhong Feihong's face.The other party saw his eyes, and showed a shy smile in a surprised expression.

"Zhong Ren, I'm sorry, from now on, I don't want to call you elder brother anymore, because you were not worthy to be my elder brother. I want to tell you that after lighting this stick of incense for you today, I will I only hope that you can go to the place you should go as soon as possible, the farther away from me the better. Of course, I also understand that no matter where you go, this home, this huge garden, there will always be your shadow, always It can make me feel that you are not dead yet, and one day, you will secretly give your own brother a medicine that can make you degraded."

Zhong Xiu and Zhong Yi in the crowd seemed a little dazed when they heard Zhong Li's words, but in the blink of an eye, Zhong Xiu saw Ju Sheng who was standing in front of the coffin as a filial son to return the salute, and she seemed to have thought of something , bit his lip lightly.

"So Zhong Ren, I finally figured it out today. No matter what, as long as I'm in Zhong's house, in this big mansion, I can't escape you. As long as this Pochun Garden is still here, your shadow can't leave here either. So I figured it out, the Zhong family will not change, and neither will the people in this house. If you want to escape from you completely, and escape from this place where I can't breathe, there is only one way, not only You die, but I want to go too!"

He Yi subconsciously closed his eyes, the corners of his mouth trembled, and his body swayed.On the other hand, Zhong Jiu subconsciously wanted to help her, but he didn't come forward.

Zhong Li suddenly walked to Zhong Feihong's side.

Everyone in the mourning hall seemed to have reacted to something suddenly. For a while, someone muttered in a low voice, but the expressions on the faces of He Yiru and Zhong Jiu changed instantly. He Yiru leaned on the little girl's shoulder, almost shivering.

Qin Huai looked at Zhong Li and Zhong Feihong in front of him, and for some reason, when the two of them stood together, he was surprised to find that they seemed to have a pair of very similar eyes and nose bridges.

Qin Huai suddenly felt that he understood what Zhong Li said just now.

A person who was born and raised in this place must have suffered so much in this wealthy family, just like himself, he was forced to be like himself by its filthy atmosphere that is glamorous on the outside but extremely rotten inside. want to escape.

Zhong Li suddenly grabbed Zhong Feihong's hand.

"Sister Feihong, I have something I want to ask you. Would you like to have one more person to accompany you on the ship to France?"

Under everyone's surprised eyes, Qin Huai saw Zhong Feihong's face turn crimson, quickly glanced at her grandfather Zhong Jiu, but finally nodded firmly to Zhong Li.

"Third brother, I am willing!"

"Bastard, your grandfather and I are not dead yet, who dares you to say yes!"

Suddenly there was a thunderous roar from the crowd, and everyone's eyes fell on Zhong Jiu in an instant, but they saw the anger on his face, as if his eyes were about to burst into flames.

Zhong Feihong was inexplicably excited because the man he was thinking of suddenly confessed to him, but he didn't expect that in the blink of an eye, his grandfather would be furious at him like an angry lion.

After all, she lived in the West since she was a child, and she has a lot more independence and strength in her bones. When she pursues love, she is definitely much braver than the girls in the same big house around her.Therefore, even though she saw that the grandfather who cared for her since childhood was extremely angry, she held Zhong Li's hand tightly, and said firmly to Zhong Jiu:

"Grandpa, Feihong didn't know where grandpa got so angry, let alone why you called your granddaughter an asshole. The third brother and I just like and admire each other. These days, we have been in a clean relationship. Be a clean person and never do anything stupid."

She paused, then raised her eyes to look into Zhong Li's eyes.

"Although the third brother and I are of the same family, we only share the same surname Zhong and have no blood relationship. It is not unknown that the third brother is a grandfather. He is knowledgeable, courteous, and kind-hearted. He is Feihong's favorite in this life. So now my third elder brother wants to go to study in France with me, I am very happy. Grandpa, after all, why are you so angry? That kind of mind can send me to study abroad, why can't my third brother and I love each other and join hands for a lifetime!"

Seeing his granddaughter and Zhong Li clasping their hands, Zhong Jiu actually mentioned the words of wanting to join hands with her for the rest of his life. For a while, he had nothing to answer, but felt an undercurrent of depression and shame running around in his chest. Looking at the almost terrified eyes of He Yiru beside him, suddenly the blood surged up, and with a wow, he spit out a mouthful of blood.

All of a sudden, the entire mourning hall kept screaming, and everyone was stunned by this unimaginable and strange scene, not knowing why.

And He Yiru next to Zhong Jiu, who was already weak, was probably the closest to Zhong Jiu at this time, but was splashed all over his body by the blood he spurted, and immediately passed out on Rui'er.

Among the crowd, Zhong Xin was the quickest to react. While rushing forward to support the crumbling Zhong Jiu, he hurriedly called the servant to call for a doctor, and then called Ju Sheng, who was beside him, to hurry to the back Get some hot water here.

When everyone was in a hurry, Zhong Xiu in the crowd stood quietly, unmoved.

While she was suspicious of Zhong Jiu's current performance in her heart, she followed Ju Sheng's figure at the same time.Seeing that although he is thin and short, he is agile and winks, obviously he is an excellent helper for Zhong Xin.

This kid is really cute and smart.
