Chapter 317

Zhao Jie's face was full of grief, and he said: "Old Madam, this is absolutely true. I have already notified several relatives of my family to transport the body of the master back to the Zhao Mansion for resettlement!"

When the old lady heard this, she cried even more miserably, and shouted: "Chengze, Chengze, you just left, what should my mother do..."

Tao Huimin took the old lady's hand and wept softly: "Mother... you have to take care of yourself, if Master Quanxia knows, I don't want to see you like this, woo woo woo..."

People often say that there are three sufferings in life, the loss of a father in youth, the loss of a spouse in middle age, and the loss of children in old age.The old lady lost her father since she was a child, and she finally grew up and got married. Seeing that the business has improved, the head of the family left her again, and now she is sending a white-haired man to a black-haired man. How can I not feel sad when I think about it!Suddenly, he remembered Zhao Chengze's beloved concubines in the other courtyard, and felt even more sad, pouring all his hatred on those concubines, and said bitterly: "Zhao Jie, come in, old man I have a few words to tell you!"

Seeing the murderous look in the old lady's eyes, Zhao Jie couldn't help shaking, thinking that the old lady had discovered his affair with Tao Huimin, so tremblingly, he followed into the inner room.The old lady closed her eyes, two lines of tears flowed down, Zhao Jie stepped forward and said cautiously: "What is the old lady's order?"

The old lady opened her eyes, fixedly looked at Zhao Jie, and said, "How does the old man treat you?" Zhao Jie stammered with cold sweat on his forehead, "The old lady treats me very well..."

The old lady nodded and said: "Okay, the so-called family ugliness should not be publicized, this matter" paused for a moment, Zhao Jie had already weakened his legs, knelt on the ground, crying, and was about to defend himself, when the old lady said : "Those vixens in the other courtyard haunted Chengze all day long, making our mother and child strangers. Chengze was in his prime, why did he die suddenly? You go and tie up those little sluts, and when Chengze Bury, and be buried together!"

Zhao Jie rolled his eyes, knelt down and moved in front of the old lady, saying: "Auntie is right, it is those little sluts! Don't worry, auntie, I will definitely avenge the master!" The old lady nodded weakly and waved her hands Signal Zhao Jie to go.

Zhao Jie hurriedly bowed and left.As soon as he went out, Tao Huimin said something in Tao Huimin's ear. Tao Huimin looked around and saw that no one was paying attention. He followed Zhao Jie out and walked to a remote place. Zhao Jie changed his sad expression, hugged Tao Huimin, and said with a smile: "Baby, Our good days are coming..."

Tao Huimin pushed Zhao Jie away, looked around, and said: "It's broad daylight, be careful not to be seen by others!" After speaking, he deliberately put some distance away from Zhao Jie, and then said: "What did mother tell you to do just now, you scared me so much?" Jump, I thought..."

Zhao Jie interjected: "You thought our good deed was discovered, right? Hey, I also thought that the old woman had discovered some clues, and I was in a cold sweat! Guess what the old woman asked me for?" Tao Hui Min said: "How can I guess correctly?" Zhao Jie leaned into Tao Huimin's ear, and said softly: "The old woman let those concubines from the other courtyard be buried with her!"

Tao Huimin turned pale all of a sudden, and stammered: "This, this is against the law!" Zhao Jie said with a complacent expression, "Yeah, that's why I said our good days are coming, wait until When the government finds out about this, they will definitely execute the old woman, and then all the wealth of the Zhao family will be mine, hahaha..."

When Tao Huimin heard this, he sneered and said, "Even if the master and the old lady are dead, the wealth will not be yours!" Zhao Jie suddenly remembered that the Zhao family had a legal heir, and this person happened to be Tao Huimin's son Zhao Tingshen No matter how good Tao Huimin is with her, she will not harm her son.No, I have to find a way to stabilize Tao Huimin, so I hurriedly pulled Tao Huimin affectionately, and said: "You see, I am confused, of course this property belongs to the court gentry, how can I fight with the court gentry? Just remember me, Zhao Jie!"

Tao Huimin rolled her eyes, and said coldly: "You'd better give up the idea of ​​embezzling the court gentry's property, or I will never let you go!" After speaking, she withdrew her hand and turned to leave.Zhao Jie yelled at Tao Huimin's back, and said: "Old ladies, I really thought I'd be with you, I yell, I can't bite the old one..." After speaking, he looked at no one, and left in a hurry.

There were a few strange noises in the dark, Lu Ziyi pulled Yingying out, and said, "You see, the Zhao Mansion will soon collapse!" Yingying bit her lip, and said, "What about Zhao Tingshen, we are now Do you want to help him?" Lu Ziyi sighed and said, "It's not that I don't want to help him, but don't forget what we are here for!"

Yingying couldn't bear it, and said, "What about the court gentleman?"

Lu Ziyi said: "I really can't do anything about it, let's figure it out!"

Yingying looked at the hurrying servants of the Zhao family, and suddenly she really wanted to see Zhao Tingshen again, "I want to see him again, and then I will go to the south with you to find Cuiping, okay?"

Lu Ziyi stared fixedly at Yingying, and said, "I know you can't bear Zhao Tingshen to have such a result, but we can't do anything now!"

Yingying didn't dare to look into Lu Ziyi's eyes, she lowered her head and said, "I see, I'm going to see him for the last time, sister Ziyi, I beg you!"

Lu Ziyi nodded and said, "Well, be careful, come back as soon as you meet!"

Yingying nodded in response, and Lu Ziyi left.

Entering the hall, I saw that Zhao Chengze's body had been placed. Zhao Tingshen was dressed in sackcloth and knelt in front of the coffin. His face was full of grief. Yingying pondered for a while. Although Zhao Tingshen was polite, after all, she really liked it. After him, this catastrophe can obviously be avoided, why should we suffer so much? Seeing Zhao Tingshen's expression was numb, he couldn't bear it, so he called softly: "Tingshen..."

Zhao Tingshen turned around and saw that it was Yingying. Although he was sad, he still came over.Yingying pulled her out of the mourning hall, and hurriedly said: "Tingshen, let's get out of here, okay?"

Zhao Tingshen looked sad and said: "My father just passed away, how can you say such a thing, can't you think of me?" Yingying said: "I let you leave is really thinking of you, aren't you Don't you like the life in Zhao's residence, I promise you, I will accompany you to the south, okay?"

Zhao Tingshen shook his head, his eyes were icy, and said: "I didn't expect you to be such a person!" After speaking, she turned around and was about to leave, Yingying grabbed her and said: "I did this for your own good, Why don't you listen to me?" "For my own good? Okay, then can you tell me why I have to leave, and now!" Zhao Tingshen pressed every step of the way, Yingying couldn't help but backed up, and her body stuck to the On the wall, there is nowhere to retreat. "Why, you said it?" Zhao Tingshen said coldly.

Yingying remembered what Lu Ziyi had said, she shook her head and said, "Don't force me, I'm just doing this..." "Then don't say anything, I don't want to embarrass you, you go!" Enough is enough, I really don't have the energy to care about her thoughts anymore. "The Zhao Mansion is about to end, what are you doing here!" Yingying yelled at Zhao Tingshen's back.

Zhao Tingshen was startled, turned his head slowly, and paused every word: "What did you say, say it again!"

Yingying said: "I said the Zhao Mansion is about to end!"

Zhao Tingshen's eyes were bloodshot, he stepped forward and grabbed Yingying's neck, and said, "What nonsense are you talking about?"

Yingying's tears flowed from being pinched, but she smiled and said: "I, I, what I said is true, I am here to save you..." "Save me? Just kidding, I am the young master of the Zhao family, I need you Help, I don't know who you heard from, but let me tell you, the Zhao family will be fine, as long as I, Zhao Tingshen, live, the Zhao family will not disperse, never!" Zhao Tingshen gritted his teeth, seeing Ying Ying's face turned pale, she left her aside and went back to the mourning hall.

Yingying panted for a long time, finally got up, and cursed: "Whatever you want, it's best to die!" Then she also left the Zhao residence.

Although Zhao Tingshen didn't believe Yingying's words, he grew up in the Zhao family since he was a child, and he knew that there were not a few people who cared about the Zhao family's wealth. Although he had never liked money, it was the property left by the Zhao family after all. The only heir of the Zhao family has the responsibility and obligation to keep the property!

This day was the day of Zhao Chengze's funeral, the old lady had already passed out from crying, Tao Huimin wept and helped the coffin, the entire Zhao family was completely white, very miserable.Zhao Chengze's body was buried in less than three days, which was beyond everyone's expectations. You must know that the funeral usually takes the first seven days, but the Zhao family invited the most famous Mr. Yin and Yang in Cuiyunling , maybe there is something important.

The Zhao Mansion was a wealthy party in Cuiyunling, and Zhao Chengze's sudden death would inevitably cause criticism. No, the entrance of the Zhao Mansion was already crowded with spectators early in the morning.I heard one of them say: "Hey, have you heard that the master of the Zhao Mansion was carried out before the heat was released!" The person next to him smiled and said: "They are all dead, even if you let him go It won’t be too hot in 1000 years, it’s better to be buried earlier! But usually the funeral is only after the first seven days, why did the Zhao family have the funeral in less than three days?”

Then a person behind said with a sneer: "Then Zhao Chengze relied on some money in his family, but he did a lot of bad things. The sudden sudden death is God's eyes!" When everyone turned around, they saw an old man with a face full of nonsense, Leaning on a bamboo pole, his cloudy eyes seemed a little moist.

The two people who were talking just now hurriedly stopped, and said in a low voice: "Old man, today is the day for the funeral of the master of the Zhao family. Everyone in the Zhao family is here, so be careful!" The old man thumped the bamboo pole and said: " My family is already ruined, so there is nothing to be afraid of, you are not afraid of me! I still want to laugh..." After speaking, he raised the bamboo pole and burst into laughter.

As soon as Zhao Chengze's coffin was carried out of the Zhao Mansion, there was silence all around, and the laughter became even harsher. Zhao Jie, who was behind Tao Huimin, frowned, and ordered the servant to drive the old man away.A few servants walked over, grabbed the old man by his collar, and dragged him aside.The old man laughed and cursed: "God damn Zhao Chengze, I can't deal with you, God will punish you, hahaha, good and evil will be rewarded in the end, hahahaha..."

Seeing that Zhao Tingshen was stiff, Tao Huimin said in a low voice, "Don't be affected, hurry up!" As soon as Zhao Tingshen moved, he heard the sound of horseshoes in front of him. Said that you buried with living people, we want to check your funeral objects!"

Tao Huimin hurried forward, quietly took out a stack of banknotes from his sleeve, and said, "Master, who are you listening to the rumors, our Zhao family has always been honest people..." Hearing the sighs from the surroundings, Tao Huimin's face froze, and she continued: "The funeral is a big event, after this hour it will be unlucky, let the officials drink some wine with these money, let's let it go!"

Unexpectedly, the leading official snorted coldly and said: "Ma'am, it's not that I don't give you face, this is an order from above, and what are you doing." He raised the bank note, frowned and said: "You This is bribery on the spot, this crime is not a small one, so many eyes are watching, do you think I can ask for it, do I dare to ask for it?"

Tao Huimin's face paled and turned blue, Zhao Tingshen stepped forward and pushed the officer, turned to Tao Huimin and said, "Mother, we didn't do such a shameful thing, you don't have to ask him, if he wants to see you, let him see it." !" Tao Huimin moved her lips, but said nothing.
