"Steward Zhang, thank you for taking care of my mother these days. My mother will go back to the countryside tomorrow. Please accept this small gift." Widow Xie handed a box of thanks to steward Zhang, who took it. He looked at the wooden box, which must have been made of Phoebe. The carving technique is superb, and the pattern of double dragons playing with pearls is lifelike on the wooden box.
This box is heavy. There must be a lot of good things in it. This box Xie widow is naturally can't afford, think is also Wang Xiushu to give her. Steward Zhang's hands were stiff and his face was gloomy. He originally called widow Xie and Xie Zurong to the capital, in order to give Pingnan Marquis's house and Wang Xiushu a challenge. The old lady in Pingnan Marquis's mansion is a conservative woman. How can she know that Wang Xiushu is a second wife without getting angry.
Did the old lady already know about it? Wang Xiushu asked widow Xie and Xie Zurong to come to Liufu. The purpose was clear at a glance. She made it clear that she wanted to tell them that she didn't care about it. Treat him in his own way.
"Steward Zhang, there's something I want to talk to you about alone." Widow Xie rubs her hands and looks at the red sleeve beside her. The red sleeve understands her. After a salute with steward Zhang, she goes out of the front hall. Steward Zhang knows what widow Xie wants to say, but he's a little unhappy at this time. It doesn't achieve the expected goal at all. Instead, he wants to give the woman such a large sum of money. How can steward Zhang swallow this tone.
"I will give you the gold I promised you, but I will only give you ten taels of gold." Zhang Guandao.
The smile on widow Xie's face gradually dissipated when she heard Zhang's words“ Isn't that what we've been talking about for a long time? What are you doing now? It doesn't mean what you say? " Asked widow Xie.
"What if it doesn't count? Are you going to sue me, just a country woman?" Manager Zhang snorted coldly, but now he didn't want to pay any attention to him. At the beginning, the promise to her was just a verbal agreement, not in black and white. This gold was not intended to be given to Zhang Guanshi at the beginning.
"If you don't! I told Xiushu that you let me come to the capital. Don't you think I'm a bully from the countryside? I'm not so easy to be bullied by you Widow Xie gave a cold hum and just sat on the ground. Xie Zurong see his mother suddenly sit on the ground to play helpless, but the heart is a shame.
Wang Xiushu has given him two hundred taels of gold. Whether Liu Fu gives it or not makes no difference to Xie Zurong. However, the people of Liufu are very powerful. Her mother is just a widow in the countryside. How can she compete with the rich families in the capital. Xie Zurong pulls widow Xie from the ground. She is trying to struggle. Xie Zurong says in her ear, "mother, this is not a calf village."
Widow Xie was stunned. She just responded. I'm used to playing in the countryside. I can't help showing my ability. She looked at the gloomy steward Zhang, and coughed awkwardly twice: "if it's twelve, it's twelve gold."
"One or two gold." Zhang Guandao.
"You Widow Xie is gnashing her teeth. It's too much deceiving. But how can she, how arrogant she is, dare not be arrogant in front of this person. She knew that as long as manager Zhang waved, countless people would stop her. Widow Xie was biting her teeth, just about to say something, but there was a burst of tearing pain in her chest. She coughed violently and blood flowed from her mouth.
Zhang Guanshi looked at the widow Xie in front of her. She didn't know what was going on. Widow Xie tumbled on the ground with a ferocious expression. Xie Zurong was frightened. He picked up widow Xie, but she was bleeding from her seven orifices, and her face was covered with bloodstains“ Mother! Are you okay? Mother Xie Zurong's face turned white and his voice trembled.
Steward Zhang called for a doctor. At this time, Xie Zurong cried out and fell to the ground. There was blood coming out of the nostrils. Outside the room, red sleeve heard the movement and approached the room. She looked at the two people who fell on the ground, and then looked at the steward Zhang. Red sleeve exclaimed, but she fainted.
When the groom comes back to report this, Wang Xiushu immediately goes out of Liuli mansion and goes to Liufu with Ruan Susheng. This has alarmed Master Liu. When Wang Xiushu arrived, Xie's two had no breath. Wang Xiushu looks at the two cold bodies on the ground, and the white cloth covering them has already bloomed. It can be imagined that the two people's death is so miserable.
"What about the tea?" Wang Xiushu asked. One side of Zhang manager saw Wang Xiushu, went to master Liu: "master, this is Princess Liuli." Master Liu looks up and looks at Wang Xiushu. Although he and Wang Xiushu have had some affinity, he doesn't remember her appearance. In other words, Master Liu didn't take Wang Xiushu seriously before. Now he looks at Wang Xiushu, but he is surprised. Although Wang Xiushu's appearance is beautiful, compared with the women in the capital, her appearance can only be regarded as fair, not beautiful.
She didn't look as resourceful as the rumor, but her eyes were as strange as a deep pool“ Red tea girl fainted and is resting in the mansion. " Master Liu said.
"What's going on? Why did Xie and his wife come to Liufu and become like this? " Wang Xiushu did not understand, she looked to master Liu, "Master Liu, people died in your house, you must give an account."
"I don't know what happened. These two people died in my house for no reason." Master Liu snorted coldly. It seems that he is also unlucky. His mansion has caused bad luck to two countrymen.
"No wonder?" Wang Xiushu narrowed her eyes. No one would believe this reason. Wang Xiushu laughs, but she sits on the chair. Just at this time, there was a commotion outside the house. Master Liu took a look at it. Wang Xiushu stepped forward and saw that there was a large group of Yamen servants in the courtyard.
Master Liu hurriedly walked out of the hall. The captor came forward and bowed to master Liu: "Master Liu, someone reported that someone had died in your house. I hope master Liu will cooperate with the investigation."
Report to the government?
Master Liu turns his eyes to Wang Xiushu. Wang Xiushu's face does not change to meet his eyes. Ruan Susheng looks at the farce of Liu's house with a smile. It can be said that he lifted a stone and smashed his own foot. What he said is not the master Liu in front of him.
Master Liu was about to say something, but the constable saw the two corpses covered by white cloth on the ground. The constable went around Master Liu and raised the white cloth. A man and a woman were covered under the white cloth. Although the woman's face was covered by blood, the uneven lines on her face could be seen clearly. The man looked young and pretty, but his body was thin and weak, as if he was stunted.
