Chapter 23: The Poison Scheme
Ningzhou City is a city developed by the Ningzhou River wharf, the Ningzhou River and the Shunjiang River meet, since ancient times the business has flourished, is the place where merchants gather.
After March, the willow branches on both sides of the street have been verdant and dripping, the swallows flying south have returned, and the chirping in the sky above Ningzhou City has been non-stop, and the streets are full of people, very lively, but the Ye family in the south of the city is just the opposite, a strange depression shrouded, abnormal boredom, and even the people began to panic.
The Ye family, which has always been busy, seems to be idle in an instant, the situation of the distinguished guests coming to the door again and again in the past is gone, the shopkeeper on the street sometimes comes in a hurry, and goes in a hurry, none of them have a good face, even the Niu family next door who has always been good with the Ye family is like avoiding the people of the Ye family like a plague god, the Ye family's subordinates pass by, and a big wolf dog is released from afar, and the attitude is very distinct.
"The news ten days ago must be true, you see that the ships on our Yejia wharf have not shipped anymore, and the ships that went out have not come back, I heard that they were detained by strongmen when they passed through Yongzhou."
"What can I do about this, I am selling a lifelong contract, the Ye family has fallen, and my fate will not be good."
"Don't be afraid, the sky is falling, there is a high top, we are all subordinates everywhere, what is there to worry about..."
……
A few people who had nothing to do squatted in the corner of the courtyard and chatted without a word, one by one drooping their heads, their faces full of sadness, and it had been ten days since Wang Yi came over.
The Buddhist hall in the backyard of the Ye family was also extremely dull, and Meng Lou'er pulled his face and looked at Ye Junsheng in front of him: "Junsheng, don't you understand my intentions?" What else do you want from me, yes, I killed your father, but that's because he took me first, and he deserved it.
Back then, he was a turtle who poured night incense, if it weren't for me, you two fathers and sons would still be pouring night incense, it's me, it's me... Menglou'er, who is famous in Ningzhou, doesn't dislike your father, is committed to marrying him, and earns such a big family business for your Ye family, but what about him, how did he treat me? ”
She said very plainly, not as excited as she imagined, just staring at Ye Junsheng without blinking, this is a secret that they all know, but they haven't said it before.
Ye Junsheng glared at her, and the beard on his face was not shaved, very decadent: "Hmph... Our Ye family's family business? Don't deceive yourself, the Ye family is just a disguise, to put it bluntly, it's not your Lu Menglou's family business...
Don't call you a victim, what do my three wives say, what do you say if you want to kill Qiao Yue? You poisonous woman, come, kill me, kill me too, the money you come from, you can spend it on whoever you want, my Ye Junsheng is not rare..."
"Junsheng..."Lu Menglou stretched out his hand to pull him, Ye Junsheng said this to her, she didn't feel a little angry, but pleaded: "How do I know about you, you also know why I want to kill them, I don't want them to give birth to you children, if you really want someone to give birth to you, this person can only be me, it's me... Don't you know what I've been thinking about you for so many years..."
"Disgusting... Dirty..."Ye Junsheng spat fiercely: "Do you understand the Code of Ethics?" Is there a dirtier slut in this world than you? ”
"Yes, I'm disgusting, I'm dirty, I'm selfish, I'm cheap, but I just love you, I won't allow anyone to take you away from me, I'm not allowed to take anyone away from me!
Do you know? Their deaths are all because of you, and as long as you don't get along with me for a day, I will keep killing, killing and marrying you, until you feel hopeless and are willing to accept me..."
"You crazy person, evil ghost..."Ye Junsheng opened her outstretched hand and went crazy: "Haha... The Ye family is almost gone, you won't be free for long, and the wicked will have their own evil to repay.
Ha ha... Aren't you a big benefactor? Why don't you see your benefactors coming to help you at this time? You take a mirror to look at your current appearance, so old and decrepit, I, Ye Junsheng, can't stand your love, come on, let the storm come more violently..."
"Jun Sheng... Do you think I'm ugly and don't accept me? Lu Menglou pulled his sideburns, blinked his eyes, he was forty years old, he looked like a little girl was coquettish, and suddenly giggled: "I am the first beauty in Ningzhou City, who said I was ugly?" Look at that Qiao Yue, there is still an abscess on her forehead, the silk scarf on her head will smell if she doesn't wash it for a day, she wants money but no money, she is as thin as a bamboo pole, she has no posture, why does she compare with me, I am from Qinglou, she is from a singing background, and she is not the same dirty? ”
Ye Junsheng ignored her, feeling that Lu Menglou was even more crazy than him, and he didn't know what he had done in his previous life, and he would definitely meet Lu Menglou in this life.
It's okay if the Ye family falls at this time, at least I don't have to be tortured by her anymore, if Lord Situ wants it, then just send him, and in the future, you can live a good life with Qiao Yue, find a quiet place, and live this life plainly.
The matter in the capital spread very quickly, and within a few days, the merchants in Ningzhou City knew about it, and Lu Menglou still had a glimmer of hope, hoping that His Royal Highness the Prince would intercede when he arrived in Ningzhou, as long as the prince could come forward to speak, even if Situ Xin was a household secretary, it would be impossible not to give the prince this face.
But it's up to anyone, Lord Zhizhou said that the money for the repair must be donated through guò, and the Ye family can't pay for it themselves, probably knowing that the money is all targeted by Lord Situ, and Zhizhou doesn't dare to let the Ye family spend money indiscriminately.
The posts sent out were returned in full, and the truth was seen in adversity, at this time, no one was willing to help the Ye family, and no one was even willing to donate money to repair Zhiyun Temple.
Ye Junsheng seemed very open-minded, he said everything that should be said and what should not be said, and then just waited for the storm to come, he prepared to leave, and no longer paid attention to Lu Menglou, a madman.
"You stop." Lu Menglou stopped him: "Jun Sheng, I still have a way, our Ye family can't be defeated." ”
She still has a way, what a magical thing, Ye Junsheng sneered: "What can you do?" Let's hear it. ”
Lu Menglou took out a large stack of silver tickets from his arms, and smiled proudly: "All the money has been exchanged by me for redemption tickets, and the cash in the shop has been withdrawn, and there are still some things to sell at home, but no one in Quanningzhou City dares to buy them." ”
"So what?" Ye Junsheng didn't understand what she meant.
"Haha..."Lu Menglou said: "Let's escape with these silver tickets!" It's enough for us to spend for a few lifetimes, I have redone all the accounts, and they have all been replaced with Qiao Yue's slut's name, and when the time comes, she is the culprit, Lord Meng in the capital, I have already strung together a confession, and when I get to another place, just the two of us, let's change our names and surnames, and live a good life..."
"You're so poisonous!" Ye Junsheng was furious: "You are trying to kill Qiao Yue, she is a new daughter-in-law who has just entered the door, you have changed all the evidence of the crime to her name, will anyone believe it?" ”
"You don't care if anyone believes it, those people just took a fancy to our family's money, and the purpose was to fill their own pockets, and when the time came, the Ye family couldn't come up with the money, so they naturally wanted to find someone to be angry, and she was guilty, who would care about the two of us..."
"No... She is a weak woman, she can't afford such a big crime, the amount of tax evasion in our family over the years is not enough to fill the house, and there are more than a dozen lives in your hands, you have to take all the money, this is to put her to death! ”
Ye Junsheng was crazy, how could he let Lu Menglou's poisonous plan succeed, he rushed over and was about to snatch the silver ticket in Lu Menglou's hand.
With a muffled sound, Mrs. Meng, who had been hiding behind her, came out, and knocked the crazy Ye Junsheng to the ground with a stick, and she said gloomily: "Old lady, when are we leaving." ”
Lu Menglou stuffed a thick stack of silver tickets into his arms: "Without further ado, I can't leave if it's late, tonight, let's leave tonight, are you ready?" ”
The mother-in-law grabbed Ye Junsheng and dragged him into the Buddhist hall: "It's all ready, Madame's trick is really wonderful, you and the master will definitely have lovers and eventually become married." ”
"Haha..."Lu Menglou smiled fiercely: "He is mine, it will always be mine, no one can rob me..."
