Chapter 29 - The Truth Seven Years Ago
In the disbelieving eyes of everyone, Wei Ruqian was as strong as a queen, and instantly subverted the image of the cowardly head of the family in everyone's minds.
Wei Zhijian looked at Wei Ruqian with some puzzlement, he never understood, how could the little girl who would immediately surrender and admit defeat as soon as he proposed to pick a pick, how could she become so strong, what did she rely on?
"If I leave, family master, the Wei family is a big business, can you manage it?" Wei Zhijian stared at Wei Ruqian's eyes, trying to read her thoughts, but he failed, and Wei Ruqian's eyes no longer dodged, but became more determined than ever.
"This, you don't have to worry about the second uncle, I naturally have a way." Wei Ruqian looked at Wei Zhijian without fear, and said sharply, "Since the second uncle is also tired, then ask the second uncle to go to the countryside to recuperate." β
Wei Zhijian was a little unsure of Wei Ruqian's thoughts, what hole cards did she have, and she dared to compete with him here.
In fact, Wei Ruqian doesn't have the so-called hole cards, she is just completely disappointed in the current Wei family, her worst plan is that if it really doesn't work, then sell all the properties of the Wei family, and then follow Zhao Fan to leave the sad place of Luoyang, of course, before this, she has one more thing that she must do.
"Wei Ruqian, I think you have stiff wings, and you dare to talk to the second master like this, have you forgotten who it was at the beginning, who turned out to be this heavy burden in the most difficult time of the Wei family, and you have forgotten all this? Has your conscience been eaten by dogs? The hand behind Wei Zhijian moved slightly, and Wei Daqian behind him immediately jumped up and said.
The Wei family on the side also began to talk at this moment, after all, Wei Zhijian's situation is different from the other two guys, he is really capable, and he has controlled the Wei family for so many years, the Wei family has a trace of worship and respect for him from the bottom of their bones, the point is that he can bring income to everyone, so that everyone can get more family allowances, if you want to get rid of Wei Zhijian, I am afraid most people will oppose it.
"Alas, the head of the family is still young after all."
"Yes, if it weren't for the second master, the Wei family would have been shattered a long time ago."
"So, you still have to know how to be grateful, and it's not okay to cross the river and tear down the bridge."
β¦β¦
Looking at the grass-like crowd on the wall, Wei Ruqian's heart had no ripples, she was used to it, if Wei Zhijian was the murderer who plotted to rob the Wei family, then these people were the accomplices who handed the knife.
"That is, Qian girl, you must have a conscience to be a man, no matter what happens now, we have a merit to the Wei family after all." Wei Hongniang saw that the form had changed, and immediately jumped up and said, "And I am your elder after all, do you have to speak to your elders like this?" β
"That's right, we have paid so much for the Wei family, what's wrong with taking a little bit ourselves, could it be that the Wei family is your own Wei family, and the rest of us are not from the Wei family?" Wei Yongyuan was poked by Wei Hongniang's finger beside him, and immediately reflected it, and said with a stalk on his neck.
Wei Ruqian looked at the two of them like this, and couldn't help but feel sad and ridiculous in her heart, perhaps, this is the so-called bandit logic, right?
"If you make a mistake, you have to admit punishment, and if you are beaten, you have to stand up, second uncle, this is what you taught me, isn't it? Since you feel that you have an opinion, it doesn't matter, here's your share. Wei Ruqian didn't let Steward Liu pick up the box this time, but took out a few letters from her arms and threw them on the table.
Wei Zhijian looked at the envelope on the table, his face couldn't help but change drastically, and his body staggered back two steps.
"Seven years ago, you bought the Poison Dragon to set fire to my Wei house, burning my parents and my young brother, and afterwards joined forces with the government to kill the poison dragon, thinking that this matter was done seamlessly." Wei Ruqian looked at Wei Zhijian coldly, a hatred that had been suppressed for many years suddenly erupted, and said hatefully, "It's just that you didn't expect that before he died, the poisonous dragon sent someone to desperately deliver these letters to Uncle Liu's hands." β
"Do you know how I've come over the years? Stay in front of you, the enemy who killed my father, every day, but I can only wait quietly, endure it, for fear that you will find out something, and then kill me, I am not afraid of death, what I am afraid of is that if I die, no one will help our family avenge, and if I die, there will be no one to expose the true face of you, a beast with a human face and a beast's heart. β
"Until now, you still want to force me to marry your son, dreaming! Even if I marry a beggar, I will never marry the son of a beast to serve a little beast! The more Wei Ruqian spoke, the more excited she became, and at the end of her speech, she was already screaming hysterically.
Wei Hongniang and Wei Yongyuan looked at the expressionless Wei Zhijian in disbelief, and hurriedly opened the envelope on the table and looked at it.
"That's right, this is the second brother's note......" Wei Hongniang took the letter paper in her hand and muttered, "Second brother, the eldest brother is really your ......"
Wei Yongyuan, who was on the side, seemed to remember something, and sat on the chair with a pale face.
"What, third child, remember?" Wei Zhijian glanced at Wei Yongyuan playfully and said, "Have you forgotten that several brothers who patrolled the night that day were all poured down by you." β
"And the matchmaker, that night, you personally brought the incense to the eldest brother's room, do you remember?" Wei Zhijian smiled a little sarcastically, and said cruelly, "If you want to talk about this, I didn't do it alone, I should say that the big guys did it together, right?" β
Wei Hongniang's face turned pale for a while, she looked at Wei Zhijian twice, and finally didn't say anything more, and she didn't have the courage to face Wei Ruqian's gaze again, she just lowered her head and was silent quietly.
No one in the hall spoke, they might be angry about the death of the previous head of the family, but at this time, they were thinking more about whether their own interests could be protected, even if a few people felt that it was inappropriate, they were still under the herd mentality, and they dared not speak out.
"Yes, I did set that fire, and your parents were indeed killed by me, but so what? What can you do with me? Wei Zhijian looked at the people who didn't dare to speak, and laughed arrogantly, "What do you use to deal with me, just rely on this group of wall grass?" I have to say, you are so naΓ―ve. β
As soon as the words were spoken, a group of strong men with long knives rushed in from outside the ancestral hall, and the crowd that had just been in turmoil was shone by the bright big knife, and suddenly became silent.
"Since you have said it so clearly today, then I won't hide it, the head of the family, if you are willing to marry He Yong, the head of the family will still be you, we old bones, we will definitely support you well, if you are unwilling, hum, you think about the consequences yourself." Wei Zhijian glanced at Wei Ruqian gloomily and said coldly.
"You're dreaming." Wei Ruqian smiled sarcastically as if she hadn't heard Wei Zhijian's threat.
