Xi Lanting has also been meeting his manager these days. He finally has some free time and is reading a book.
Hearing this, he shook his head: "I won't go."
Yun Qiao stood in front of him, but stopped talking.
Xi Lanting looked at her and asked: "Do you suspect me of murder?"
Yun Qiao: "I..."
"You can be suspicious." Xi Lanting said, "Go out and go to bed early. Tomorrow you will go to Xu's house to watch the fun."
Yun Qiao: "..."
Xi Lanting's mouth was always so sharp and venomous. Yun Qiao deliberately explained that they were not watching the fun, but it was hard to quibble about their mentality.
She nodded yes.
The Xu family is indeed a mess.
Also going this time were the Cheng family masters. They had some friendship with the Xu family and were of high status. Even so, they didn't even get a cup of tea when they came.
There is actually no mourning hall in the Xu family.
The masters were nowhere to be seen, but the housekeeper was so busy that he took the time to come over and say hello.
"...The old man was sent to the hospital and now he wants to be examined." The housekeeper told them, "However, the second roommate did not agree and there was a stalemate."
The so-called examination is an autopsy.
How did the old man die? The Xu family has many children and grandchildren, so there must be great differences.
Eighty percent of the people advocated an autopsy on the old man, the reason being: "There must be a reason for abnormal death."
Make it clear why and whoever should bear the responsibility will bear the responsibility.
At this time, the second wife firmly objected, saying that the deceased was respected and could not let the old man go and have his body desecrated.
After leaving Xu's house, Yun Qiao and others returned the same day.
They waited for two hours, but still didn't see any of the Xu family's masters.
"...Looking at it like this, I don't know when the mourning hall will be set up." Yun Qiao said, her tone a little disappointed.
Mr. Xu was disrespectful and wanted to bully a little orphan girl, but Yun Qiao took pity on him.
It's a pity that he spent his whole life working hard and being competitive. After his death, he didn't even have a moment of peace. None of his children and grandchildren were courageous.
"The funeral is far away." Zhu Yucheng also said, "I'm afraid we don't have time to wait. My mother-in-law's anniversary is coming soon."
Yun Qiao and others are juniors, and the steward has the same weight as them and can worship Mrs. Xu on their behalf.
Xi Lanting greeted the Guangzhou Governor and rented a special train to leave tomorrow.
Several people went back to clean up.
The next day, everyone got up early and rushed to the train station.
After the special train set off, Yun Qiao and the other four were playing cards in the train's restaurant, and the topic of conversation turned to the Xu family.
However, both Cheng Li and Yun Qiao had reservations about Zhu Yucheng and did not analyze the Xu family in depth.
Yun Qiao's crisis at the dock in Hong Kong has been temporarily relieved. Without the covetousness of the Xu family, her dock and business are much safer, and Yun Qiao is in a good mood.
Thinking about it this way, it would be better for Mr. Xu, that greedy old thief, to die.
The train can reach Yunqiao's hometown county town.
When they arrived at the county town, several carriages were parked in front of the fence outside the train station, waiting to pick them up.
Zhu Yucheng was surprised: "Who is it?"
"People from my family."
"Aren't all the people in your hometown dismissed?" Zhu Yucheng asked.
Yun Qiao: "Why should we be dismissed? They are all old people, loyal and have their own abilities. It will not be easy for grandma to gather them."
When Yun Qiao wanted to leave with Du Xiaoqin, in order to make Du Xiaoqin trust her, she said "disband the servants" and acted out a scene in front of Du Xiaoqin.
The severance pay is just the monthly payment for that month.
Du Xiaoqin acted like a fool and actually believed it. When Yun Qiao arrived in Yancheng, she also claimed that she was living with Du Xiaoqin and would not go back. Zhu Yucheng naturally thought that her old house was empty.
did not expect……
She wanted to come back, so she sent a telegram in advance, and her hometown naturally arranged for a carriage to be waiting at the train station.
