Chapter 14: Enmity in the past life
The true look on Zhang Bai's face has not faded away yet. Hearing this, his face couldn't help but look a little ugly.
"What request?"
His tone was low, implying a warning to the other party not to overestimate his capabilities.
The young man knelt down and looked at Liu Yueniang in a pool of blood with a sad expression.
"I want to collect and bury my mother."
Zhang Bai felt disgusted and wanted to warn others.
The young man's voice was firm: "I only have this request."
"If you don't agree, just kill me."
"I won't go back with you."
Zhang Bai suddenly turned pale, gritted his teeth, and compromised: "No later than this time."
He glared at the young man: "Second Young Master, please take care of yourself!"
After that, he took the people and turned around to leave.
The boy breathed a sigh of relief.
After leaving Qingtong Lane, the entourage following Zhang Bai couldn't help but ask: "Sir, are we leaving just like that? Master's side..."
The head of the Zhang family had given numerous instructions to bring people back to the Zhang family for resettlement before the dynasty dispersed.
"Of course we can't leave."
Zhang Bai glared at the person: "You will take the people with you later to guard all the places entering and exiting Qingtong Lane."
He looked back at the direction he came from: "A smart person will never do stupid things if he thinks about it."
Will there be people who give up wealth and glory and cling to poverty just for the sake of character?
Zhang Bai sneered coldly in his heart, not thinking that this was possible.
-
Zhang Mansion.
The lights in the main courtyard of the Zhang family's main house are still on.
On the big Kang by the window, the hairpin ring has been removed, and she only has a bun on her head. Mrs. Cui, the eldest wife of the Zhang family, wearing a loose sapphire blue jacket, is holding her head with her hands, feeling sleepy. Take a nap.
"...No!"
Mrs. Cui woke up suddenly, her whole body soaked with sweat.
"Madam? Are you okay?"
Madam Zhou, the steward who was fanning the person next to her, quickly took a warm handkerchief and put it on the person's face. After the person woke up and calmed down, she handed over the warm tea. .
Ms. Cui took two sips of hot tea, and the scalding hot water passed through her throat, slightly calming her panic.
"Have the people who went to do errands come back?"
Zhou shook her head and whispered back: "Not yet."
Ms. Cui stroked her heart, feeling panicked again.
"Mommy, I always feel like something is going to happen and I feel so flustered."
She was extremely uneasy.
She had that dream again just now.
In the dream, for some unknown reason, the father-in-law brought back the concubine from Qingtong Lane and said that this was her biological son. Chi'er was betrayed by that bitch Liu Yueniang. He was not her biological son but Liu Yueniang's.
But she was pregnant in ten months and had personally raised Chi'er for more than ten years. How could she not recognize her biological son?
Mingming Chi'er looks so much like his uncle.
But everyone said that the concubine Liu Yueniang raised beside her was her biological son.
It was said that when Liu Yueniang gave birth, she bribed Wen Po, who delivered her baby, and exchanged her child for her child with the child she had just given birth to.
It's such a ridiculous thing, but no one doubts it.
In the dream, she actually accepted it and believed it.
At first, the son who was later found was quite respectful and filial to her.
Although mother and son are not very close, they can still maintain a loving mother and filial piety.
Until, this "true son" who was found won the first prize, and with the help of the Zhang family and the Cui family, he rose all the way to the top, became the emperor's favorite, and finally showed his true colors and swung his sword at his family!
After that, a bowl of poison killed her, and she welcomed Liu Yueniang, a cheap servant, into the house and became an old lady!
She hates it so much!
Fortunately, it was all a dream.
How could the father-in-law and the husband be so stupid that they pretended to be a concubine and let a concubine who was not even a concubine come into the house and take Chi'er's place.
Unexpectedly, Chi'er committed a crime against the eldest princess at the Spring Banquet and was sentenced to prison.
Lang Jun got the news and hurried home, but instead of comforting her, he would definitely find a way to rescue their son.
Instead, she was told to be mentally prepared to keep her mouth shut in the future and to treat that bitch who was born outside the family as her own!
Cui only felt angry at that time.
After calming down, I was surprised to break out in a cold sweat. What happened in the dream came true!
In her haste, she only had time to arrange for the nursing home of Jiasheng to accompany her, and rushed to Qingtong Lane to persuade Liu Yueniang to die.
No one saw it, but above Cui's head, there was a wisp of gradually fading black air.
-
"Lord God, are you still there?"
The young man's eyes were eager, looking around in the small yard.
Uneasiness gradually grew in his heart.
He suspected that the sound he just heard was just his illusion.
"Lord God?"
Song Lan jumped down from the tree and walked forward quietly, with a frivolous tone, as if he had heard some funny joke.
"Are you calling me?"
When the young man heard the familiar voice, he suddenly felt happy and was about to raise his head in excitement.
Song Lan raised his foot and stepped on the person's hand that was supporting the ground, crushing it as hard as he did to her in the previous life.
"Ah, God, Lord God..."
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
With their fingers connected to their hearts, the young man bent down in pain.
"I am not a god."
"I'm not here to redeem you."
The young man didn't believe it and raised his head angrily: "You just said clearly that you would let me see my mother again...ah!"
Before he could clearly see the face of the speaker, his head was pressed to the ground, and the embroidered shoes outlined with silver thread crushed the right side of his face until it was like a layer of oily skin, making him miserable.
"Yes! I can let you see the ghost of your mother."
Song Lan chuckled: "It's just, what do you want to exchange for it?"
"Tsk! Let me guess - it's so good. Who would have thought that on such a peaceful and ordinary night, mother and son were holding candles and talking at night, talking about what interesting things happened today, earned a few copper coins, and what they were thinking about. At that time, I could save enough money to buy decent new clothes, but suddenly the yin and yang were separated. ”
"It's so miserable!"
"I think your mother probably had many last words that she didn't have time to tell you, right?"
Song Lan's frivolous tone made the young man feel even more resentful.
He struggled, trying to get out from under the man's feet.
But he was stepped on harder and harder.
"It seems that you don't really want to see your mother."
"That's right. You will be the legitimate young master of the Zhang family soon. Why would you care about a young lady who is rushing to be someone else's wife?"
"I just wish you could be destroyed as soon as possible so that no one knows your past."
Hearing someone insult his mother, the young man struggled even more.
But he still couldn't escape Song Lan's feet.
"As long as you can let me see my mother again, I can do anything you want."
The young man was quickly defeated, gritted his teeth and compromised, stopped struggling, and managed to squeeze out his voice.
"Oh?"
"I want you to die, is that okay?"
The young man uttered one word decisively: "Okay!"
Song Lan smiled and pondered: "You may not know that the reason why the Zhang family seeks you back and is willing to give you the identity of their direct descendant is because the second young master of the Zhang family is now in prison. He wants to protect the Zhang family's name for a hundred years. Such a drama of a real and fake young master.”
"Of course, there is a more important reason, that is, I heard that you have the talent to be the number one scholar, but you were set up by the second young master of the Zhang family many times. Unfortunately, you missed the exam and failed to stand out."
"The two generations of the Zhang family are declining, and they urgently need a legitimate son who can support the family, shine on the family lintel, and continue the glory of the Zhang family."
"However, the younger generations of the Zhang family have not inherited the wisdom of their predecessors in their careers."
"In this way, you, a foreigner who was said by the former examiner to be the number one scholar, have become the target of their high hopes."
"As long as you become the top scorer in high school in the future, the Zhang family will definitely use the strength of the whole family to help you achieve success."
"I gave up such a promising future just to see your mother again."
"Are you willing to do it?"
Song Lan removed the foot that was on the person's cheek, squatted down, and gently pulled the person's hair with a faint voice.
"When a person dies, there is nothing left."
The young man's scalp hurt from being pulled. He gritted his teeth hard and pronounced each word clearly: "Let me——"
