After being reborn, she became the richest man without being a queen

Chapter 42 Family Seal
Ren Shaochun wanted to follow, but Ren Shaoyan got out of nowhere and dragged him away without saying a word.When he managed to get away from his second brother, Shen Qingling and Zhou Langhuan had already disappeared.

The cold moon climbed outside the government office.

Zhou Langhuan was on guard against Shen Qingling by his side, so he was silent all the way, not even looking away from Shen Qingling.On the other hand, Shen Qingling purposely stood next to Zhou Langhuan, sizing her up from time to time along the way, putting great pressure on her.

As for Shao Cong, he was not far behind.

After listening to such inquiries all day during the day, to be honest, Shao Cong was a little dizzy.Now that he can come out to breathe, he will inevitably relax his vigilance, and the hand holding the sword will be looser.

There is no one on the long street, only the yamen guards who are on duty at night are faintly in the distance, and the sound of footsteps is very solid.

After Shen Tuesday and his group reached the corner of the main street, Zhou Langhuan stopped suddenly, leaned slightly to salute Shen Qingling, and said, "Miss Shen, you don't need to send it off anymore. Turn right ahead and you will find my concubine's house. This place is considered safe. .”

"Oh? Really?" Shen Qingling turned her head to look a few times in surprise, and then said with a smile: "I see Miss Zhou is very kind, I wonder if Miss Zhou is willing to invite me to come and make a cup of tea?"

It was probably because Zhou Langhuan had never seen such a shameless little lady like Shen Qingling, she was still a little dazed at the moment, and when she came back to her senses, Shen Qingling who was talking to herself had already dragged her to the door of Zhou's residence.

The Zhou family was like an ordinary wealthy family, with four lion lanterns hanging at the door, and two servants standing underneath.The servant leaned against the door, trying to sleep, blinking his eyes constantly.

"Miss Shen's personality is really rare." Having been in business for many years, even if Zhou Langhuan was in a hurry, he would never say a bad word, "Since we have arrived at the door, please invite Miss Shen and my concubine Let's enter the house together and have a cup of tea."

The servant who was awakened hastily wiped the corner of his mouth, and hurriedly opened the door for Zhou Langhuan.

After passing through the gate, there is a screen wall of white cranes. The screen wall is hollowed out, and the two gates can be seen faintly.

This point was when the servants were sweeping. Shen Qingling followed behind Zhou Langhuan with lowered eyebrows and eyes, and walked all the way to the main hall. Salute and say hello.

What they called was not the lady, but the boss.

"My dear Huaner."

As soon as the group of three entered the main hall, they heard an eager call from outside the door.

Shen Qingling followed the prestige and saw a middle-aged man in a sauce-brown robe trotting into the main hall, his face was very excited.He walked up to Zhou Langhuan, raised his hand and patted Zhou Langhuan's shoulder, and said, "Uncle is worried to death. If you go to the government office this time, will the magistrate make things difficult for you? If so, uncle will At the risk of a great crime, I have to go to him once!"

In just a few sentences, a lot of information was revealed.

Sure enough, Zhou Langhuan's complexion also darkened. She shook her shoulders, frowned and took half a step back, scolding: "Why is uncle so reckless? There are still guests here. If uncle has nothing important to do, please go first." Waiting in the hall."

The man is not blind, how could he not know there are other people in the hall?But he just wanted to show his care for his niece in front of outsiders, and the outsiders had better be from the government.

only--

When the man faced Shen Qingling and Shao Cong seriously, he realized that there was a man and a woman standing beside Zhou Langhuan.

"These two are...?" The man asked with a sneer.

Zhou Langhuan waved his hand with a half-smile, and introduced to the man: "These two are government office staff who are favored by Ren Zhizhou, and this is my concubine's uncle, Zhou Chenguang."

Even Shao Cong could hear the perfunctory tone of voice.

"It turned out to be a staff member of the government office. It was Xiaomin who was rude just now." Zhou Chenguang bowed his sleeves and said flatteringly: "Several people hurry up and take your seats, Xiaomin invites servants to prepare tea."

Saying that, without waiting for Shen Qingling to speak, Zhou Chenguang hurriedly turned around and left the main hall.

Just looking at his back, he can't help but see some desperation and flee.

Shen Qingling covered her lips and smiled, jokingly said familiarly: "Miss Zhou's uncle is a wonderful person, but I heard that Miss Zhou has three uncles in total, why did this one come out to greet her?"

Not to mention the little ladies in the ordinary boudoir, even those rough women that Zhou Langhuan met when he was doing business, he never had such a natural acquaintance with Shen Qingling.More importantly, from Shen Qingling's expression and demeanor, Zhou Langhuan couldn't feel any street spirit, the noble and clean and the vulgar and warm were like one.

What a weird scene.

"Ms. Shen laughed. This is the sixth uncle who is a concubine. The other two uncles presumably took a break, so none of them appeared together." After thinking about it, Zhou Langhuan could only interrupt and say, "Bai Ri It can be seen that Zhao Tongpan is very respectful to Mrs. Shen, but Mrs. Shen is now a female official in the government office?"

Tea and snacks are sent into the main hall like flowing water.

The servants seemed to have been well-trained, and after serving tea, they bowed and retreated.

Shen Qingling held the teacup with two fingers and turned it around, asked Shao Cong to sit beside him, and replied: "Miss Zhou is flattering me, I'm just an attendant, not a female official."

"Oh?" Zhou Langhuan stopped holding the tea, his brows slightly raised.

Not a female officer, but able to listen in, could it be someone related to the case?Thinking of this, Zhou Langhuan looked at Shen Qingling again, and there was a subtle change.

She knew there was a woman in the wilderness.

But she also knew that it was impossible for a man like the wilderness to give birth to a woman like Mrs. Shen, so Mrs. Shen's real identity became a rock, hanging in her heart.

"Miss Zhou?" Seeing that Zhou Langhuan was in a daze, Shen Qingling called out to her, and said, "Miss Zhou is tired? If you are tired, I don't want to bother you."

She said it was not good to bother, but Shen Qingling didn't even move the chair.

"It's nothing." Zhou Langhuan naturally saw through Shen Qingling's intentions, so he could only answer with a wry smile: "My father's case has not been solved yet, how can a daughter sleep peacefully? Right now, I just hope that the adults in the government office can settle down as soon as possible." Investigate this case to the bottom, and kill that damned person."

The fragrance of tea overflowed through Zhou Langhuansu's slight shaking of his hand.

She looked down at the slightly rippling tea soup, and continued sadly: "Although Zhou Ji Liang's business is gradually getting on the right track under the control of my concubine, if my father can't rest in peace, how can a daughter bear the heart?" Directly took over the seal of the Patriarch? Without the seal of the Patriarch, as a concubine as a woman, how can I gain a firm foothold in this environment surrounded by tigers and wolves?"

Zhou Chenyu's body had been burned to ashes.

However, according to the old customs of the Li Dynasty, those who died wronged or murdered were usually only arranged to be buried after the incident came to light.In other words, as long as the real culprit cannot be found in Zhou Chenyu's murder case, Zhou Chenyu will have no peace for a day.

Not to mention, the Zhou family has property and a family seal to inherit, and these cannot be handed over until the owner is buried.
