The master didn’t know why A-Lan was so hesitant. Logically speaking, Yueyao had been back for some time, and A-Lan should have handed her over to the clan for disposal. But the strange thing was that A-Lan didn’t do that, and now she planned to hand her over to the clan.
Alan's father.
You must know that A-Lan's mother was almost killed by this woman. Why is A-Lan so hesitant? You must know that A-Lan said before that if he catches this woman, he will not let her go.
Seeing doubts on Master's face, A-Lan said: "She is different from before, and I plan to give her a chance. However, she once made her mother sick in bed and her father was bewitched and lost his nature. So,
I plan to hand her over to my father. I am very glad that I did not hand her over to the clan. You have also seen how the clan handles things. I think if I had sent her to the clan, she might have died a long time ago. I know
You wonder why I changed my mind. After I came back from Fengtian Sect, I found that I have changed a lot. Death is not scary to her. It would be easy if I killed her. However, if I leave her alive
Wouldn't it be a good thing to let her change her ways? If she were handed over to the clan, how could the clan members spare her if they were so old-fashioned? In order to cover up this scandal, they would naturally deal with her as soon as possible.
"
The master nodded, very satisfied with A-Lan's answer. Unexpectedly, after this experience, A-Lan became a lot more sensible. When he came back this time, he not only saw A-Lan who was on his own, but also a person who knew how to consider others.
A Lan.
"When you grow up, I will finally have an explanation when I see your grandfather in the future." The master said with emotion.
"Master, why are you talking about these things all of a sudden?" A Lan asked.
"I just feel that you have become sensible and can take charge of your own business. Now as long as you handle the clan affairs well, there will be no more troubles." The master said.
"The people in the clan have always only looked at the immediate interests, otherwise they would not have changed their minds after seeing the gold mine. You must know that they are the ones who enforce the clan rules, how could they suddenly become indifferent to right from wrong? Shopkeeper Jing's
This incident made me extremely disappointed with the clan, how could the Leng family become like this?" A Lan said.
"Don't be too impatient, the matter will be solved," the master said.
Originally, the master had already planned that if A-Lan couldn't handle it alone, he would go back and invite Murong Xi over. Now that he saw that A-Lan could handle it, he didn't need to invite Xi'er over. He had met the clan leader many times.
How could such a big change happen suddenly?
Three days later, there was news in the clan that Elder Lu and the clan leader from last time came to Leng Mansion again.
"Alan, if you come back with us, you have to let us have an explanation, right?" the clan leader said.
"What are you going to ask me to explain?" Alan asked.
"Alan, I think you understand better than anyone else why you want to kill them. After we went back this time, we explained the situation to the clan. After all, we need you to have an explanation with the clan," the clan leader said.
"What the patriarch means is that I don't have to be punished or bear any responsibility, and can continue to take care of the Leng family's business?" A Lan asked with a smile.
"The clan is re-electing its leader. You have killed three people, and the clan will not let you continue to manage the business. However, you have been running the business for the Leng family for many years, so you only need to return to the clan to be punished.
I will spare your life." The clan leader said.
"I really didn't expect that one day these words would be said to me by the patriarch. Patriarch, you really disappoint me. I will not leave with you. You can do whatever you want to do with it." After A Lan finished speaking, he planned to leave.
lobby.
At this time, all three elders suddenly arrived at Leng's house. When Ah Lan saw the three elders arriving, he knew that they had discovered that the person was missing.
Today is the day of burial. It should be that he discovered that the person in the coffin was missing early this morning. How could he let three people be buried, knowing that they were not dead yet.
"What are the three elders doing?" Alan asked.
"Tell me, where did you hide them?" the great elder roared.
"Who? Who are they?" Alan asked.
"Today is the day of burial. I discovered that Xian'er was missing early in the morning. You said how could the child be missing if it weren't for you?" the elder said.
"The Great Elder is really strange. Do you all blame me for Xian'er's disappearance?" A Lan asked.
The third elder was relatively calm. Seeing that the clan leader and elder Lu were there, he asked: "Clan leader, has there been any results in the clan today?"
"Well, now the clan is re-electing its leader, and we are here to bring Alan back to the clan," the clan leader said.
The third elder said: "I'm sorry for bothering you, clan leader. The elders from the clan have done justice to us. Now I just hope that the children can be buried in peace. Please don't embarrass us."
"Alan, why are you so cruel that you even want to stop the burial?" Elder Lu asked.
"Alan, before the matter becomes less serious, tell us where you hid them?" the clan leader asked.
"Patriarch, I was going to tell you just now that three elders came to your door three days ago and said that I killed Xian'er and my cousin. You entered the Leng Mansion and indiscriminately concluded that it was me who did it. Just three days ago,
Elders, you said that the disappearance of my cousin and Xian'er was related to me, but you just assumed that it was me who did it without even asking. You were not like this before," said A-Lan.
"The three elders all said that you were the one who kidnapped my cousin and Xian'er, so why should I have any doubts?" the patriarch said.
"Will you come with us or not?" the patriarch said.
Ah Lan shrugged, obviously not planning to go back with the clan leader. Seeing Ah Lan's arrogance, the elder said, "You killed Xian'er, I won't let you go. If you make a mistake, you have to bear everything. This
Don’t you understand the truth?”
"Great Elder, this sentence is particularly funny coming from your mouth. The three elders killed people, why don't they just stand here and blame me? Do you bear everything?" A Lan said with a smile.
After hearing what A-Lan said, the great elder rushed over. Al-Lan dodged the attack of the great elder.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the clan leader grabbed the elder and said to the three elders: "Three elders, please don't be impulsive. I'll see a few of you go back first. When we get to know each other, we will give an explanation to the three elders."
of."
"Brother, don't be impulsive." The third elder also pulled the eldest elder and said in a low voice.
After the three elders left, the clan leader and Elder Lu also left the Leng family. After the two of them went out, they immediately returned to the clan after a few words.
The clan members acted very quickly. They immediately sent people to my brother's shop to inform the shopkeeper that from now on, A-Lan was no longer their boss, and A-Lan could not interfere with business matters.
After Uncle Ren heard the news in the shop, he immediately returned to the Leng family. Seeing that A Lan was not affected, he asked: "Master, do you know that the clan sent someone to deliver the news to the shop that you will no longer be here?"
He is the head of the Leng family, what happened?"
"It wasn't because of the matter between my cousin and Xian'er, otherwise why would I do this?" A Lan said.
"What should we do now? You have been taking care of the tea gardens and shops yourself these days. How could they do this?" Uncle Ren said excitedly.
"Uncle Ren, why are you so excited? It would be good to take a good rest during this period." A Lan said with a smile.
"In this case, I won't go to the shop tomorrow." Uncle Ren said.
"No, Uncle Ren has to go to the shop and watch. What if something happens that delays the business?" A-Lan said.
Uncle Ren could only say: "I will go back and watch now."
Who would have known that when Uncle Ren returned, all the shops in that row were in disarray. It turned out that after cleaning up the shopkeeper, he decided to close the shop temporarily after discussing with the shopkeepers.
Uncle Ren hurried over and asked, "What are you doing?"
"If the young master were not the head of the family, we would not stay in the Leng family. Although we have worked in the Leng family for many years, we can come back again because of the young master. Originally, we did something wrong and planned to come back to make amends. Who knew that the clan would actually
Do this to the young master." Shopkeeper Li said.
"Don't do this, the young master will be in trouble." Uncle Ren said.
"Ren Zi, you don't need to say much else. We will advance and retreat together with the young master no matter what we say this time," Shopkeeper Li said.
Shopkeeper Li had no choice but to wave his hands helplessly, pretending not to notice, and then he also dismissed the waiters in the shop, leaving him alone in the shop.
Shopkeeper Tang was very shocked after receiving the news. How could the clan treat the young master like this? You must know that the young master always thinks about the Leng family, but he did not expect that the elders of the clan would treat him like this.
However, he had just returned to Jinyuzhai. Wouldn't it be a waste of the young master's trust in him if he left like this?
Shopkeeper Tang didn't say anything and asked the waiter to guard the shop while he came to Uncle Ren's side alone.
After discussing with Uncle Ren, Uncle Ren said: "Jinyu Zhai is different from other shops. If you leave at this time, it is easy for people in the clan to take advantage of you. Therefore, you and I must stay in the shop. Here I
Get ready to pack up and leave, I want to go back and guard the antique shop."
"I understand, I will continue to stay in Jinyu Zhai." Shopkeeper Tang said.
The tea garden and tea house also received the news. After hearing this, the tea garden steward called all the clerks to discuss whether to stay or leave. The steward expressed his intention and planned to leave the tea garden, and all the clerks also packed up their things and left the tea garden.
.
The tea house was not much better. After hearing the news, the shopkeeper was very puzzled by the clan's decision. After letting the waiters go back to rest, he closed the tea house and returned home.
Because there were customers, the tea house put up a sign that it would not be open for the time being the next morning.
Ayu went out for a walk early the next morning and returned to Leng Mansion. She took a sip and said to Alan: "I believe the people in the clan will be so angry that they vomit blood when they see the situation in the shop."
"What happened? The shopkeeper rebelled?" A Lan asked.
"Rebellion? The shops are not open at all. There are only two shops open now, one is Jinyuzhai and the other is an antique shop. I heard that shopkeeper Tang went to see Uncle Ren yesterday, and shopkeeper Tang would stay in the shop because of Uncle Ren's words.
"Ayu said.
"All the shops are closed? What about the restaurants?" A Lan asked.
"It's closed." Ayu said.
"I'm planning to invite Master to the restaurant for dinner. How can the shop owner close the restaurant?" A-Lan said.
"What can we do? They are not convinced." Ayu said.
"I really didn't expect them to do this. It seems that the clan leader is coming again." A Lan said.
Because the restaurant was closed, A-Lan had no choice but to ask the small kitchen to cook more of Master's favorite dishes during lunch.
The clan leader quickly received the news and went to the shops in person. As expected, all the shops were closed. He got on the carriage and went to Leng Mansion, intending to question A Lan as to why he had closed all the shops.
After he entered the Leng Mansion, he did not stay in the front hall, but went to the side courtyard. This time no one stopped him, but he did not expect to see the master in the courtyard.
