Chapter Eighty-Nine: Imposter Liu Jing
"Xiaohong, am I mistaken, the young master and the lady seem to be doing something unethical?" Xiaoqing's eyes widened and she whispered to the sisters on the side.
"Shh......h Big fool, you just know what you see, why say it. Remember, we were just in charge of the door, we didn't hear anything, we didn't see anything. Otherwise, if this matter spreads, our lives will not be guaranteed. Xiaohong was indeed smarter, and in an instant, she grasped the key and made a gesture of staring ahead without squinting.
"Oh, got it." Although there was still a continuous sound of grace in her ears, Xiaoqing didn't dare to look back, but stood there motionless with a red face.
About a quarter of an hour later, Zhang Yang hurriedly opened the door and walked out briskly from inside. I saw that one of his hands was all soaked, and he was still dripping with an unknown liquid. He lowered his head and kept wiping it with a white brocade handkerchief as he walked.
"Young Master......" After hearing the door open, the two little maids took two steps back with crimson faces, and then timidly saluted Zhang Yang.
"Oh, by the way, Madame was so sleepy just now that she probably fell asleep in her chair. I'm going to catch a cold later, so get some bedding and cover her. Zhang Yang seemed to be expressionless, but in fact said in a messy mood.
After the two maids watched Zhang Yang leave, they cautiously opened the door and walked slowly into the hall.
When the two of them saw the wooden chair lying on their backs and forks in the middle, they couldn't help but be dumbfounded.
I saw that Li Xiutao at this moment not only had messy sideburns and hair, but her clothes were not in any shape, especially there was an obvious dampness on her lower body, as if she had accidentally spilled urine in her crotch.
When the two maids were busy taking care of the Li family, Zhang Yang had quietly come to the previous unmanned rockery, and when he came out, he had changed back to his original appearance.
"Isn't it too much this time, I just wanted to touch it, and I just teased her for a moment or two. didn't expect that the last shot was out of control, and he actually ...... her" Thinking of the Fengyue scene at that time, Zhang Yang couldn't help but want to move.
Originally, Zhang Yang just wanted to scare Li Xiutao, but while playing, he unconsciously became angry.
Sometimes, the human heart is really dark. Zhang Yang thought that he was a kind-hearted good otaku, but he didn't expect that under the temptation of women, he couldn't help but do something like a beast.
Especially under the mask of others, he is very fearless, which further fuels the growth of demons in his heart.
If he hadn't stopped himself at the last moment, he would have lost his armor at this moment, and not just the right hand that had worked hard for him.
Of course, this is not entirely his fault, if it weren't for the fact that Li actually said in front of him that he wanted his surname, I'm afraid Zhang Yang wouldn't have done it so outrageously.
"Liu Zhengfeng, don't blame me underground, only blame your wife for being too femme fatale, if she hadn't killed me, I wouldn't have done this......" Zhang Yang thought weakly.
After all, it's only been eight days since someone died, and it's a bit too much to do this kind of thing to someone else's wife......
"But this Li family is so sensitive, and he is good-looking, he will definitely not widow Liu Zhengfeng in the future, and he may not know how many green hats he will wear. If I do this, it should be regarded as helping Liu Zhengfeng punish this Li family, right? After finding such an unformed reason, Zhang Yang felt a little more at ease.
"Originally, I just wanted to spoof the Li family, but I didn't expect to find out the secret of private property, and this trip was not without gain. As long as you prepare early, the Li family's hundreds of thousands of taels of silver will not be able to escape. Thinking of this, Zhang Yang left the rockery contentedly.
In the evening, Zhang Yang came to the mourning hall arranged in a large martial arts arena in the outer courtyard as scheduled.
Earlier, Zhang Yang asked a Taoist who presided over the sacrifice, and only then did he know that such a festival would take 49 days, commonly known as 'burning seven'.
The so-called 'burning seven' means that every seven days is counted from the date of the deceased's death, which is called the 'first seven', 'twenty-seven', 'three-seven', 'four-seven', 'five-seven', 'six-seven', and 'last seven', for a total of 49 days.
Generally, the first, third, and fifth single seven sacrifices are more solemn, relatives and friends need to be there, and filial sons have to cry spirits; Second, fourth, sixth, and other double seven, relatives and friends can not come, filial piety only burns paper and does not cry, also known as 'empty seven'.
Just because the 'first seven' has passed, Liu Zhengfeng's Qu Yang's coffin has been buried, and the festival at this time is called 'Erqi' in the ancient language.
Originally, relatives and friends could not come to festivals like Erqi, but because Liu Zhengfeng's reputation in Hengshan City has always been very high, many relatives, friends and disciples still burn paper here.
Zhang Yang found Liu Jing and Qu Feiyan, who were wearing linen and wearing filial piety and kneeling side by side, at the front of the mourning hall.
Because Erqi is not as disciplined as the first seven, it is close to dusk at this moment, and many people have burned the paper and left on their own. Therefore, he directly told Liu Jing the excuse of checking the details of the account book, so as to break it out.
"Yesterday, I heard from Danian that Brother Zhang wants to check the previous account books, so I have asked people to start counting last year's accounts, and now it must have been done. I wanted to send someone to send it to you, but I didn't expect you to come in person, so you can come with me to get it. After Liu Jing didn't talk nonsense, she stood up and walked out.
Ga! Already done? Zhang Yang really didn't expect this excuse to be useless. As a last resort, I had to follow Liu Jing slowly to a study in an inner courtyard.
At this moment, there were several lanterns lit in the study, a square table was piled up with account books more than three feet high, and a white-haired old man and two young Hengshan disciples were busy inside.
As soon as the two entered the door, the three who were busy hurriedly saluted Zhang Yang, and then continued to clean up the accounts with calculations.
"These are the cleared accounts, and the rest will probably be sorted out tonight, Brother Zhang, you can take a look at it first......" Liu Jing said after talking to the old man for a few words, then pointed to the pile of account books that were half a person high.
Zhang Yang looked at the mountain-like account book, and subconsciously swallowed his saliva, he didn't have time to read these things here. After looking at these account books, he suddenly remembered the matter of private property that Li said today, and after thinking about it, he said with an idea:
"Miss Liu, in fact, Zhang's purpose in this trip is not to verify the account books. I only received a report from my disciple that Mrs. Li may have embezzled some of her property during the management of the accounts. Of course, I'm afraid this matter is just groundless, so I found the girl and wanted to ask you to review several stewards under Mrs. Li to see if this matter is true? ”
In the more than ten days that he lived in Liu's mansion, Zhang Yang had already heard some rumors about Liu Jing's discord with the second mother, and judging from her bad attitude towards Liu Qin and the irreconcilable relationship between the stepmother and the former children for thousands of years, Liu Jing must have a great contradiction with the Li family. Therefore, it is a good choice to think of letting her deal with the Li family.
"Something is wrong with Erniang's accounts? Brother Zhang, you actually asked me to review it, you must know that he is my second mother, have you ever believed in the little girl? Liu Jing didn't seem surprised by the problems with Li's accounts, but she was quite surprised by Zhang Yang's trust.
"Of course, Miss Liu has an excellent reputation in Hengshan City, how can Zhang not trust you." After Zhang Yang said nonsense, he continued: "Then again, if your second mother really has an accounting problem, after all, your father was also the head of the Hengshan faction. For his sake, as long as your second mother hands over this part of the property, she will not be punished. In addition, I want the girl to continue to serve as the housekeeper, I wonder what you think? ”
"Since Brother Zhang has said so, Jing'er is better to be respectful than to obey her fate." The position of head of internal affairs is very powerful, and for Liu Jing, a female president, of course she will not refuse.
"As for the issue of checking the accounts, sooner rather than later, I would like to start a surprise review overnight from tonight. The little woman dared to borrow the token of Brother Zhang's head of the house, so as to facilitate the dispatch of the disciples in the mansion to summon those relevant stewards. Liu Jing's eyes returned to their former wisdom, if she wasn't her daughter, I am afraid that the position of head of Hengshan would not fall on Zhang Yang's head.
Zhang Yang was so happy that when he handed over the token to her, and quietly withdrew from the account room, he found a hidden rockery and drilled into it.
After a while, a person who looked exactly like Liu Jing walked out of the rockery, and after the impostor slowly walked out of the courtyard, Shi Shiran walked towards the Qu Feiyan place in the mourning hall...... (To be continued.) )
