Chapter 57 Attack(1/2)
"Don't ask grandma, it's because I didn't pay attention for a while and said nothing. ∮, Dad said, don't tell grandma. I'm just afraid that grandma will get excited and hurt her body." Ji Xiaotang saw the old lady Ji asking, but refused to say it.
This clearly made Old Mrs. Ji even more anxious and wanted to know the truth.
"Good boy, tell me quickly. How can you hide such a big thing from me?" Old Mrs. Ji hurriedly asked Ji Xiaotang to come closer to her. "I'm old and my ears are not good. Xiaotang, tell me again."
Seeing that Old Mrs. Ji was like this, Ji Xiaotang did not persist anymore.
"I told my grandmother that I can, but my grandmother must first make sure that she cannot be excited. If my grandmother hurts her body, my father will not spare me." Ji Xiaotang said to Old Mrs. Ji first.
Old Mrs. Ji took a deep breath and stroked her breasts.
"Grandmother is not excited, grandmother is fine. Good boy, tell grandmother quickly."
Ji Xiaotang then repeated the words just now.
Other people's corpses were buried in the Ji family's blessed land. What a big deal. Uncle Gu and Jiang next to him also changed their faces.
Ji Xiaotang's eyes swept across the faces of several people in the Gu family.
In addition to uncle Gu and Jiang, Gu Xia'er was also very surprised.
Gu Xueer had no reaction.
Ji Xiaotang did not doubt Gu Xueer. Gu Xueer was just young and didn't know the seriousness of the matter, and she really didn't care about these things.
As for Gu Leier...
Gu Lei'er was not as surprised as Mr. Gu and Jiang.
Is this because Jiang Er has just been with him? Jiang Er has already revealed some news to him?
The Gu family has been in Bowang for the past two months, and they should have not known about the Ji family's blessing.
After Mrs. Ji slowly digested the news, Ji Xiaotang told Mrs. Ji about the incident. But Jiang Qingshan was not mentioned.
"There is such a thing, and there is such a thing." Old Mrs. Ji said repeatedly.
At this time, Master Ji Er and Master Ji San walked in from outside.
"Xiaotang said, but it's true?" Old Mrs. Ji asked Master Ji Er.
"It's all true." Master Ji Er said, "I didn't plan to let the old lady worry about it."
"How can you hide such a big thing from me? This is a big thing. If such a thing happens, the old man will not be at peace in the dark." Old Mrs. Ji said.
"Old lady, don't be angry, the matter has been resolved." Master Ji Er said hurriedly.
"Who has such a courage to do such a thing?" asked Old Mrs. Ji. ()
"Yes, who has taken the courage of Xiongxin and Leopard? Is this what I have done? Has anyone caught it?" Uncle Gu also asked.
"If you want to know who did it, you have to help my uncle." Ji Xiaotang said.
Old Mrs. Ji looked at Old Mrs. Gu.
Uncle Gu was speechless for a moment.
"Bring Jiang Er up." Master Ji San ordered.
Jiang Er came in tremblingly at this time. As soon as he entered the door, he knelt on the ground with a thud. Just now, Master Ji San arranged someone to look at the door. He could hear a rough idea about what he said inside the room.
Jiang Erben wanted to use the light of his sister and brother-in-law to get back the errands of the Ji family. After all, Mrs. Ji only has uncle Gu, who is very frustrated and Mr. Ji is also very filial.
He didn't expect that the Ji family would have to settle the old accounts with him if they didn't get the job back.
At that time, Master Ji Er beat the big manager to the ritual village, but he changed his people and removed him from another manager's job, but he did not go into it in depth.
Hasn't the matter of burying the corpse in Fudi been solved? Why did it be mentioned again at this time? It seems that I still want to do it with him.
Jiang Er knelt there, constantly wiping the sweat on his forehead with his sleeves. He was already heavy and prone to sweating. At this time, he was nervous and sweating even more.
"The uncle asked him for my grandmother. I think he could tell the truth when he looked at his relatives with the uncle." Ji Xiaotang said.
The meaning of this statement is obviously to treat Jiang Er as a complicitor who buried the corpse.
"...I'm wronged," Jiang Er hurriedly shouted "...I don't know anything, I just drank some wine and slept that night. I really don't know anything. Give me the courage to do such a thing."
"I've said that it was one day. You are not a complicitor. How did you know?" Ji Xiaotang asked with a sneer.
Jiang Er was immediately stopped.
After a while of silence, Jiang Er realized again and was busy calling for justice. His eyes floated towards the direction of Gu Lao Lao and Jiang.
"I really don't know, I, I guessed that I got drunk that night, I don't know, I don't know..."
"For the sake of my uncle, the Ji family gave him this important job. See how he repays the Ji family." Master Ji Er said.
"Sister, brother-in-law..." Jiang Eryan looked bad. He was a guilty person, so he was afraid that he could not find out who buried the body, so he wanted to push the matter to him.
If this case is decided, the yamen will be the least punishable by a military force.
Even if the Ji family was concerned and did not send him to the yamen, the Ji family would not let him go if he dealt with his servants' family rules.
"Old lady, their actions not only disturbed my father and the ancestors of the Ji family in peace, but also wanted to ruin the Feng Shui of our Ji family. ¢£,” Master Ji Er said to Mr. Ji again.
Old Mrs. Ji protects her short-skinned brother and favors her younger brother, but between her brother's brother-in-law, Old Mrs. Ji and the Feng Shui of the Ji family, Old Mrs. Ji has nothing to hesitate.
Old Mrs. Ji glanced at Jiang Er and then looked at Jiang's body.
Old Mrs. Ji looked at Jiang's gaze very badly.
When Jiang Er called her sister and brother-in-law again, uncle Gu suddenly stood up.
Uncle Gu walked to Jiang Er, paused for a moment, then raised his foot, kicked Jiang Er hard to the ground.
"You are a trash of things. It's useless to support you for years. You don't know how to repay you well, but you will also harm my sister and my nephew. There is no need to worry about sending you to the yamen. I will kill you and everyone will be clean."
As Mr. Gu said, he kicked Jiang Er again, which made Jiang Er roll underground and howl.
Old Mrs. Ji was a little embarrassed about this.
"You ask him, who did that, and what benefits did it give him?" Old Mrs. Ji said to Uncle Gu.
Uncle Gu asked Jiang Er.
While protecting his face, Jiang Er replied, still saying that he was drunk and knew nothing.
"If you haven't said it, it seems that you don't know it hurts." Uncle Gu kicked Jiang Er again.
"I really don't know." Jiang Er still said, "It was Manager Zhou from the mansion who sent the wine and food, and everyone got drunk. I don't know anything, so I should ask Manager Zhou."
Jiang Er didn't know what kind of mentality it was, so he told Manager Zhou out of his mind.
Ji Xiaotang had long told Master Ji Er about the suspiciousness of Manager Zhou, but Master Ji Er never touched Manager Zhou.
However, since Jiang Er said that, there is no need to keep him anymore.
"Call Manager Zhou." Master Ji Er ordered.
Manager Zhou was called soon, and Master Ji Er asked in person. Manager Zhou also said he was unaware of it. He just passed by Qingxi Mountain and happened to have some wine and food in his hand, so he took it to the sacrificial village to invite everyone to eat and use it.
Manager Zhou vaguely revealed the meaning that he did so in order to curry favor with Jiang Er.
Whether it is Ji Xiaotang or Master Ji Er, they are not surprised by this.
If they could focus on Jiang Qingshan so easily, they would not have used this method.
Master Ji Er ordered to beat Guanshi Zhou twenty boards and asked someone to check Guanshi Zhou's residence, but found a lot of unknown things.
Manager Zhou has been doing the procurement of lamp oil candles and other items for a long time, and has plundered a lot of them.
With these mistakes, Manager Zhou could not keep him any longer. At the order of Master Ji Er, he only gave Manager Zhou the clothes he had with him and drove him out.
It is already a matter of opening the door to the official position.
However, the servant who was kicked out after making such a mistake will not be able to live a better life from now on.
As for Jiang Er, seeing that Manager Zhou was driven out after being kicked out, he never dared to think about any chores to manage the business again.
Uncle Gu kicked Jiang Er two more times.
After all, it was for the sake of uncle Gu. Jiang Er was spared and was driven out. Not to mention being in charge of business, it would be impossible to be the most ordinary friend in the Ji family in the future.
After this event, when the banquet comes, the atmosphere cannot be too warm no matter what.
The welcoming banquet of Mr. Gu ended in a hurry.
Old Mrs. Ji left Gu Xiaer and Gu Xueer behind, and asked Gu uncle and Jiang to take Gu Lei'er home to rest early.
"I'll come to pay my respects to my elder sister tomorrow morning and go to the village." Uncle Gu said to Mrs. Ji before leaving.
"Don't be anxious. You can take a break and just attack loyal and capable people." Old Mrs. Ji said.
"Sister feels sorry for me. I can't think about it for my elder sister and nephews. After this time, it's not too late for me to rest." Uncle Gu said.
Originally, when Mr. Ji was alive, he arranged for Mr. Gu to take charge of a small silk shop in the city, so that the Gu family could not worry about food or clothing. After Mr. Ji passed away, Mrs. Gu secretly told Mr. Ji that Mr. Ji would ask Mr. Gu to take care of the largest farm in the Ji family, which was the village with fertile fields at the foot of Qingxi Mountain outside Qingyuan County.
Uncle Gu took charge of the village, and even his brother-in-law Jiang Er went to the adjacent ritual village to do business.
My uncle has managed the farm. Although the weather has been good for many years, the harvest paid on the farm is getting smaller every year.
Old Mrs. Ji was coaxed by Mr. Gu’s words, saying that Mr. Gu had worked hard.
As for Mr. Ji Er, for the sake of Mrs. Ji, he turned a blind eye to this matter.
