The memories about the predecessor are not all gathered in front of Zhang Yan. They will only appear for Zhang Yan to know when certain key information points are encountered.
Regarding the name Xiao Chongwen, Zhang Yan could not recall much before, except that he knew that his predecessor's death penalty was inseparable from this person.
"Xiao Chongwen? What are they here for?"
There were three other people with Xiao Chongwen, namely Ma Shan, Liu Chang, and Yang Lin. These four people were once "good friends" of Zhang Yan's predecessor, had frequent contacts, and played a large role in many major decisions of Zhang Yan's predecessor.
A key role in fueling the flames.
For example, after Zhang Yan's predecessor took over the Zhang family business, he chose to sell some fertile land in his family and replace it with two shops in Langyuan City. It was Xiao Chongwen and the four of them who were the matchmakers.
Moreover, in those memories about "how he was convicted", although Zhang Yan's predecessor did not know the specific details, and in the end he was beaten into submission and confessed, but the day before the incident, he remembered clearly that he was
He was invited to drink by Xiao Chongwen and others. When he woke up, he was in a shabby and unfamiliar room. Before he could figure out the situation, he was captured by the government servants who broke into the door. After that, he went through a set of procedures in the government office.
He became a death row prisoner for arson and murder.
The whole thing would make everyone feel that something was wrong, let alone Zhang Yan at this moment. This was also the reason why he asked Lin Zedong to help take care of his family when he was in Yubei Mountain, because Langyuan City was not suitable for the Zhang family.
Safety.
No matter what Zhang Yan was thinking, the Zhang family, who felt that they had a backbone in the family, didn't think much about it. They immediately told the story about Zhou Cang's previous visit and how he drove away the four Xiao Chongwen people who had been pestering the family. In addition to
In addition to asking Zhang Yan to remember Zhou Cang's good deeds and find opportunities to repay the gift, he also hoped that Zhang Yan could clearly see the dirty deeds of the four Xiao Chongwen people and did not want Zhang Yan to be with those people anymore.
"Yan'er, don't blame my mother for talking too much. Xiao Chongwen and the others are really not good people. When something happened to you before, my mother felt that they had something to do with it, but she couldn't explain it. After that, they said they were your "good friends" but never came to your door.
I have seen it, and later found out that you had traded your military exploits for fertile farmland, so you came to try to distract us. After being rejected by us, you have been pestering us and talking frivolously to your sister. If Mr. Zhou had not come forward in time, your elder brother would have fought against them.
.
So Yan'er! You have escaped from death this time. Please don't have anything to do with them anymore. Our whole family can't bear it anymore!"
Wang Lanping's tears started to fall again as she spoke, and she grabbed Zhang Yan's arm with both hands, fearing that her second son would become friends with those bad people, in which case the Zhang family would really be hopeless.
Zhang Yan patted his mother's hand to reassure her, and said warmly: "Mom, don't worry, my son is not stupid. I thought a lot about that incident later, and the strangeness was too obvious. Xiao Chongwen and the four of them will definitely give it a try."
I was tricked. It must have been for the two shops at home. How could such a beast be worthy of being my friend?
I had this consideration before when I asked President Lin to take care of my family."
Bang! Zhang Shun slammed the table hard. When his second brother said that there was something fishy about his previous conviction, he finally let out a sigh of relief. His younger brother was indeed not the villain who committed the murder, and the four Xiao Chongwen
As expected, this beast had something to do with it.
"Shit! I knew there was something wrong with them!"
Zhang Yan said with a smile: "Brother, don't be angry. You have already said that those people are bullies. There is no point in getting angry with them. And if they are persistent in their evil intentions, then we will pay for the things they took from our house with profit."
Just bring them all back."
"Yan'er, don't do anything stupid!" Although Wang Lanping was happy that her second son had finally seen Xiao Chongwen and his gang's true colors as thieves, there was something in those words that seemed to indicate that she was going to end things with Xiao Chongwen and the gang, so she unconsciously became worried.
.I am afraid of turmoil at home, so I just want to be stable, and I really don’t dare to mess with it.
Zhang Yan looked at the concerned eyes around him, and he suddenly enjoyed this emotional bond. Family love is indeed something that is difficult to let go of.
"Mom, don't worry. The most important thing for our family right now is that you two live well. I won't risk our family's stable life for a few bastards who can't make it. But the things that were taken away from our family must also be taken away.
I have my own plan to get it back, mother, so you don’t have to worry about it."
Zhang Yan spoke very steadily, and his self-confidence was so strong that it infected everyone in the Zhang family sitting around. It seems that Xiao Chongwen's idiots are as worthless to Zhang Yan in front of Zhang Yan today.
, what the Zhang family lost will also be regained.
The Zhang family will not know that the "Zhang Er" in front of them at this time is no longer the person they were once so familiar with. The soul has changed, and the only thing left is the physical body and the blood and family ties that are constantly involved with the physical body.
As an heir who came through time with the Immortal Artifact Wanxiang Pearl from the Longhu Mountain Town, Zhang Yan never thought that he would be caught in a mere Langyuan City. He would eventually get back the Zhang family’s belongings.
, and with the profits, not only Xiao Chongwen's idiots, but also the black hands hidden behind them, he also wants to kill them all.
...
That night, five people were sitting around in a wing room of the newly opened "Yue Ying Fang" less than half a year ago on Mangrove Street, where the flower houses are gathered in Langyuan City. Four of them, with fawning looks on their faces, were members of the Zhang family.
I will never forget Xiao Chongwen, Ma Shan, Liu Chang and Yang Lin.
Sitting in the middle is a young man, less than thirty years old, very thin, with a pale complexion, and a jade crown on his head. Although his brocade robe is luxurious, it looks hollow because he is too thin and does not look good.
This person is Wu Qingling, the only son of Wu Yuan, the city administrator of Langyuan City.
No matter whether they are doing business or serving as an official in Langyuan City, everyone knows the name of Wu Qingling. He is a notoriously domineering playboy and a trouble that most people in Langyuan City avoid.
Wu Qingling has a nickname called "Second Government Official" or "Second Master". It means that in Langyuan City, Wu Qingling's father Wu Yuan is the most effective in speaking, and Wu Qingling is the second most effective. Although the meaning is praise or criticism.
It’s unclear, but it can be seen Wu Qingling’s importance in Langyuan City.
"Have you been playing for money in a venue recently?" Wu Qingling saw that the drinks were over, she waved her hand and cleared out all the singing girls in the room, leaving one of her bodyguards standing by the side, looking for a conversation to start with.
Let’s get down to business today.
"Hehe, to be honest with you, Mr. Wu, money has been tight recently. We haven't been to the venue for a long time, and we're worried about causing trouble to you."
"Trouble? Didn't I tell you? If you don't have any money, come to me to get it. Why are you so out of town?" As he said this, he waved and asked the guard to hand over a palm-sized box.
"Here are some money tickets, you can use them. If you don't have enough, come to me and ask for more."
