Listening to the discussions around him, Chu Nanzhi stared at Governor Zheng Haichuan and couldn't help but sneered: "Since Lord Governor is here to seek justice for the Qi family, I don't know how much Lord Governor knows about our family's affairs.
?”
Lin Tingzhen now admired his niece-in-law so much that she didn't blame him for going to Qi's house for a banquet today. He was both grateful and scared at the same time.
At this time, when he saw her mentioning the affairs of the Qi and Chu families, he also helped to pick up the topic and asked directly without any hesitation: "Since Lord Superintendent is so concerned about the affairs of the Qi family, have you ever heard about the poor Wen Yu in the mourning hall?"
Brother, was the queen and queen of the Qi family forcibly taken away from the house and married into his wife?"
Zheng Haichuan looked at Lin Tingzhen, deliberately avoiding what the two mentioned, and then asked: "Who are you?"
Lin Tingzhen sat upright, her eyes twinkling and she said with an arrogant look on her face: "I am not talented. When I am Princess Chao Shu, I have to call you my uncle."
Upon hearing this, Qin Sihai secretly whispered in Zheng Haichuan's ear: "Master Du You, Princess Shu came to the village yesterday and confirmed that the elder brother of the Lin family was the royal brother."
"so what?"
Zheng Haichuan sneered confidently: "Princess Shu is just paying tribute to her fellow clan members, but you are really using chicken feathers as arrows."
Besides, although Princess Jin Shu is domineering, he is not afraid of her: "I act impartially, and even if Princess Shu comes in person, she will not unreasonably interfere with my execution of supervisory duties."
Taking advantage of the conversation between several people, Chu Nanzhi asked Chu Wenbi to bring him the documents to repay the Qi family's land.
Chu Wenbi was unhappy and handed the yellowed receipt to Zheng Haichuan respectfully: "I would also like to ask the Governor to take a look at it. The Qi family deceived my deceased brother into the Qi family. In order to stop everyone from talking about it, they used thirty
I gave him acres of land as a gift, and nine years ago I returned all the Qi family’s property, and these are all written documents.”
As he spoke, he glanced at Qi Yujie with a resentful look, and said angrily: "At first, I wanted to welcome my deceased brother back, but the mistress of the Qi family threatened the lives of my Chu family and forced my deceased brother to stay and refused to allow him to leave.
For the safety of my family, I have to continue to suffer in that sea of misery, and every time I think about this, the common people feel even more sad."
As soon as he said this, everyone looked at Qi Yujie in shock.
Qi Yujie looked at the fierce glances from all directions, and was so frightened that she quibbled wildly:
"Chu Erlang, don't talk nonsense. My parents did use some tricks to let Wen Yu come in. I admit this, so I followed his wishes and gave your family thirty acres of land as compensation. But beat him.
After entering the house, he and I have always been very affectionate, otherwise how could we have Chen'er? Don't just talk ungrateful nonsense."
"Am I ungrateful?"
Chu Wenbi was so angry that he was dizzy. This woman was really good at telling lies.
Before she could talk to her in detail, Qi Yujie argued fiercely: "Although Chen'er is a bit naughty, he is also Wen Yu's son and has always been filial to him. If your family hadn't repeatedly instigated trouble, how could he have done this?
They despise us, mother and son, and only care about the life and death of your family."
"What a loving wife, what a filial, kind and righteous son."
Chu Nanzhi thought about the vicious faces of mother and son on the night Chu Wenyu died, and she was so angry that she almost spat out a mouthful of old blood.
Her dark eyes gradually turned sullen, she glared at the mother and son, and said sternly:
"Since you so want to fulfill your filial piety for my uncle, I will give you mother and son this opportunity. As my niece, I will not embarrass you mother and son. First aunt, in front of everyone today, if my cousin can honor my uncle in front of his soul,
He calls me "Father, auntie, please repeat what you said before in front of his soul word for word, and I will allow you to carry my uncle's coffin back."
Hearing this, Chu Wenbi couldn't help but frown. He pulled Chu Nanzhi and wanted to persuade him, but Chu Nanzhi stopped him with one word: "Father, please leave it alone."
Then he dragged the mother and son straight to the mourning hall. While looking at the coffin, he knelt down and whispered: "Uncle, my niece has brought your good wife and filial son to pay homage to you."
As she spoke, she discovered that the spiritual tablet had been moved a long time ago and had moved forward a lot from yesterday's position, only a few inches away from the candlelight next to it.
She was startled, and secretly cast her gaze at Tanshan Taoist Priest beside the coffin. He was casually putting incense in the bucket of grains.
The moment the two people's eyes met, Tanshan Taoist priest gave her a faint smile, then calmly turned away and continued to concentrate on the work in his hands.
Chu Nanzhi was both grateful and puzzled. He was really an expert, and he had already guessed his intentions.
I thought that dragging the mother and son in would be a waste of time to wait for the wax to be melted by the heat, but this saved me a lot of trouble.
She stood up with relief and looked at Qi mother and son solemnly:
"Please, cousin, aunt, the head of the Chu family and the elders are all here. They still remember what happened back then. If you can't give them a satisfactory explanation today, even if my uncle is still burdened with the son-in-law of the Qi family,
As a matter of fact, even if your niece is willing to let you take your uncle's body back, I'm afraid they won't be willing to do it."
As soon as she finished speaking, the crutch in Chu Laoqian's hand hit the ground heavily, making a deep sound.
When Qi Yujie heard about the reputation, she turned to the elders of the Chu family who were sitting next to the coffin. She saw angry faces on their faces, which made her tremble and feel at a loss.
Then she looked at the cold spiritual tablets and black coffin in front of her, thinking about Chu Wenyu's tragic situation before his death, she became even more uneasy, and her little heart kept beating.
Facing the spiritual status of his lifelong enemy, Qi Mochen couldn't help but tremble.
But in the past two days, many of the guests had dispersed because of Princess Jinshu's visit to express condolences. In order to save face, he gritted his teeth and slowly knelt down on the futon, looking around at the Liu and Chu families who were wearing hemp and mourning.
, secretly calmed down his mind and was about to shout towards the mourning hall: "Father"
But before he could say anything, he opened his eyes wide and stared blankly at Han Sensen's spiritual place. He was so frightened that his face turned pale and he could not speak.
Everyone looked at it together and saw blood spilling everywhere on the spiritual tablet, gradually blurring the fonts on the spiritual tablet. Everyone was stunned and couldn't help but cry out in pain:
"Wen Yu, you died unjustly."
"Uncle is afraid that he was forced to death by this mother and son."
The elders of the clan also opened their old eyes wide, looking at this incredible scene, and commented with regret: "Wen Yu must have suffered a great injustice in the Qi family, and now he has appeared and wants to take the lives of the mother and son.
"
Although Lin Jinxiao knew that this was Chu Nanzhi's manipulation, he was afraid that the little ones would see this scene, so he still tightly protected the quadruplets from them.
But Dabaolin Ruiwen couldn't help but glance up curiously. Just one glance made his heart tremble with fright, but then he thought of what his mother-in-law did upstairs yesterday, and he probably understood what was going on. Smart
I glanced at my younger brothers and sisters, and then followed everyone in unison and pretended to cry.
Lin Jinxiao saw that the little ones were not really crying, and couldn't help but curled his lips secretly: What a bunch of smart little guys.
Qi Yujie listened to the cries of the children and stared blankly at the bloody spiritual tablets. She was so frightened that her legs softened and she fell to her knees, crying: "Wen Yu, don't scare me and Chen'er, he
No matter how disrespectful he is, this is your biological son. Do you really have the heart to watch him suffer?"
Qi Yujie spoke intermittently, staring at the gradually blurring spiritual tablets, feeling cold sweat break out on her forehead.
Liu Yun and the Chu sisters had already burst into tears and cried one after another:
"Brother, it was our family that caused you to suffer. You suffered humiliation and were driven to a dead end by this mother and son."
"Uncle, you can't do anything to this mother and son while you are alive. Since you are so uneasy when you die, just take them and their son on the road together."
Although Qi Mochen was usually bold and daring, he could see that he was extremely frightened when he saw this kind of thing. He was trembling in his heart and his whole scalp was numb.
