In the past two days, Zhou Wang felt that something was wrong, it always seemed that something was missing, and after thinking for a while, he realized that he hadn't seen Zhou Wu for two or three days. Although Peach Blossom always said that the second brother had something to do during the meal, he just moved, so why was he not at home for two or three days? Zhou Wang's heart was suspicious.

"Mother Wu, have you seen the second young master in the past two days?" Zhou Wang asked the mother-in-law who was sitting on the side to accompany her to do needlework.

Wu's mother entered Zhuohua Villa with her son. Her son Liu Ji was clever and was ordered to buy materials, and she finally stayed by the side of Zhou Wang to serve because she could speak well.

"It's been a few days since I saw the second master." When Zhou Wang mentioned it, Wu's mother remembered that she hadn't seen Zhou Wu in the garden for two or three days.

"Something may be delayed in the city." Business is booming in the Zhuangyuan Building, and it was common to be tripped in the city before.

Zhou Wangshi didn't think so, she suddenly remembered another person.

"Hui Niang doesn't seem to have been to the kitchen in the past two days."

Zhou Hui likes to be busy in the kitchen, and also attaches great importance to the business of Zhuangyuan Building, no matter how busy she is, she will find a way to check in the kitchen, and this kind of situation of not seeing anyone for two or three days has never happened. Nothing is going to happen to these two people, is it? Zhou Wang's heart was a little uneasy.

Mother Wu didn't think so much, and said with a smile: "In the past two days, the moving girl has rarely come, and the kitchen has been watched by a lady for the past two days." ”

Zhou Wang couldn't sit still a little and decided to go directly to Zhou Hui's place to have a look.

"Mother, where are you going? In a hurry. Lin Taohua has been staring at the main house for the past two days, for fear that if one of them is not careful, the old couple will cross them and kill Zhou Hui directly. Zhou Hui already felt inferior and guilty in her heart, and if she was directly blocked by the old couple, she was afraid that she would be numb.

Zhou Wang stopped and looked at the second junior high school who was following Lin Taohua. If you are not mistaken, this girl was clearly hiding at the side door of the main house just now, which is why Lin Taohua appeared in the main courtyard so quickly.

"Peach Blossom, do you have something to hide from your mother?"

People who are usually always as kind as Maitreya Buddha suddenly put on a straight face, and the momentum is still quite scary.

Lin Taohua didn't dare to laugh at this time, and replied respectfully: "Daughter-in-law doesn't dare." ”

"Brother Wu, come to him, I have something to ask him." Zhou Wang said.

"Second brother, he ......" Lin Taohua tried to make up reasons to delay time, waiting for Zhou Ming and Zhou Wen to arrive.

"Mother, are you going out?" Zhou Wen smiled and strode closer from the outside.

Lin Taohua breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, she was really inexperienced in this kind of foolish calculation of elders, and as soon as the old lady got angry, it was estimated that she would not be able to bear it.

"Mother." Zhou Ming also greeted Zhou Wang's with a natural expression.

Lin Taohua complained silently, she still can't cultivate at home, and she can't compare to these two places without being surprised.

When Zhou Wang's heart sank when he saw this situation, his body was a little unstable.

"Old lady." Wu's mother hurriedly helped her.

"Mother." Lin Taohua and the three of them were also nervous.

"What about people?" Zhou Wang's mind stabilized, and his eyes were sharp and approached Zhou Wen.

Zhou Wen pursed his lips and whispered, "In the ancestral hall." ”

Zhou Wang turned around and walked towards the ancestral hall, Zhou Wen stopped Wu's mother and followed her, reaching out to help her. The son joined forces to deceive her, and Zhou Wang's family was extremely angry and shook off Zhou Wen's hand.

"Mother, you go slowly." Zhou Wen said helplessly, but Zhou Wang's family didn't want to deal with him at all.

Zhou Ming looked at the two women who were walking away, turned to Cheng Xuan and said, "Tell the porter to guard the door, and call all the male servants in the house to the outer courtyard to rest." Keep your mouth shut, and if there is any rumor, I will not spare you. ”

Cheng Xuan listened respectfully, and said yes again and again.

Lin Taohua asked the second junior high school to gather all the maids in the back room of the fifth entrance, and all those who did not follow the rules were sold.

After arranging the servants and maids, the husband and wife hurried to the ancestral hall.

At the door of the ancestral hall stood a trembling Cheng'an, and there was a sudden slap inside, followed by the sound of Zhou Wang's angry scolding.

"What do you hear?" Zhou Ming stopped at the door and asked Cheng An, his voice was gentle but full of majesty.

Cheng An was already frightened because he heard something he shouldn't have heard, and when he was asked by Zhou Ming at this time, he knelt down and kowtowed violently: "Boss, the little one didn't hear anything." ”

Zhou Ming looked at him silently. Cheng An felt a layer of sweat on his back, and his head lowered more and more.

"Go to the village school and ask the master to come back." After a long time, Zhou Ming said lightly.

Cheng An said yes, got up and bowed down.

After Cheng Ancheng retreated in fear, the husband and wife entered the ancestral hall.

Zhou Wu knelt in the ancestral hall for more than two days, and the water and rice did not enter, and the whole person was staggering and could faint at any time. Zhou Wang's family was angry, and the slap was heavy, and Zhou Wu was a little dizzy.

Zhou Ming and Lin Taohua stood quietly beside Zhou Wen, and the three of them stood respectfully and did not dare to make a mistake.

"How do you do big brother? Let this brute do such a degrading thing! Dare to hide it from me! Zhou Wang's face was pale and shaky, where was he willing to do it, and his anger burned directly to Zhou Wen.

Of course, Zhou Wen wanted to take this charge, and knelt down honestly, "It's the son who didn't bring his younger brother well, and the mother will punish him, don't be angry." ”

Zhou Ming knelt down before Zhou Wang's family looked over, bowed his head and said: "The incident happened suddenly, my son was panicked, and the family moved out, and my son didn't dare to report to his father." ”

They both knelt down, and Lin Taohua didn't dare to stand, so she knelt beside Zhou Ming obediently.

Zhou Wangshi looked at his son and daughter-in-law kneeling in a row, and then thought of Zhou Hui outside, only to feel that she was suffocated in her heart, and her eyes were black with anger.

"Call your father." She said angrily.

Zhou Ming hurriedly said: "Mother is angry and has already sent someone to call my father." ”

Zhou Yuan was called out of the village school by Cheng'an, and he didn't ask anything, so he could only rush home inexplicably. As soon as he entered the gate, he saw the male servants gathered in the outer courtyard, and Zhou Yuan was even more puzzled, what happened to him?

"You're staying here, too." After Zhou Yuan left Cheng'an behind, he hurried to the ancestral hall.

The ancestral hall was very quiet, the three sons and daughter-in-law were all kneeling on the ground, and the old wife was sitting on the side rubbing her forehead. Zhou Yuan closed the door casually, looked at all the people in the hall, and then set the target on Zhou Wu.

"Say." With just one word, the momentum of being the head of the family was brought out, and the usual indifferent and kind image was like two people.

"Father's ......"

"I'm asking him!"

Zhou Ming wanted to repeat the old trick to make a statement on his behalf, but was directly interrupted by Zhou Yuan. The stern tone frightened Lin Taohua and pulled Zhou Ming.

Zhou Wu clenched his fists, looked up at Zhou Yuan and said, "The son is not filial, and he has the teachings of his father. The son forced Hui Niang. ”

Zhou Yuan felt that he was hallucinating and strengthening a woman? His Zhou family actually had such unfilial descendants.

"Say it again."

Zhou Wu looked at the disbelief and deep disappointment in Zhou Yuan's eyes, and felt extremely uncomfortable in his heart, but he couldn't back down.

"My son forced Hui Niang."

After a few words, the ancestral hall was quiet and terrifying.

"Brute!"

A storm of rage ensued. Zhou Yuan kicked Zhou Wu over, picked up the family law on the confession and hit Zhou Wu with his head and face.

Zhou Wu had been hungry for a few days and was weak to death, and at this time, the sticks and sticks were even more starry in front of him. He gritted his teeth, and the reddish-brown sticks fell on him with the whirring sound of the wind, and the pain went straight to his head.

The man in the anger was terrifying, and even the power in the hands of a scholar like Zhou Yuan seemed to have increased exponentially, and Lin Taohua felt that her heart was about to jump out of her chest.

Zhou Wen and Zhou Ming didn't dare to speak, and Zhou Wang held his head and wept silently.

Lin Taohua saw that Zhou Wu's lips were very white, and said boldly: "Dad, don't fight, the second brother has been kneeling for three days, and he can't bear it without a drop of water." ”

Zhou Yuan beat as if he hadn't heard it.

"Mother, you persuade your father not to fight." Lin Taohua threw herself in front of Zhou Wang's body and begged.

Zhou Wang's family was not distressed, but this beast really deserved to be beaten, she gritted her teeth and turned her head.

After another while, Zhou Wu fainted, and Zhou Yuan's stick had no intention of stopping, as if he was really going to beat him to death.

"Mother, mother, the second brother is dizzy, mother."

In the ancestral hall, only Lin Taohua begged bitterly, tears flowing.

"Master, don't fight." Zhou Wang's family couldn't help it, and rushed over and hugged Zhou Wu, who had fainted.

Zhou Yuan said angrily: "You get out of the way." He did such a thing, and he deserved to be killed. ”

Zhou Wang's family was willing to give in, hugged Zhou Wu and said: "My son has been very miserable, do you still want to kill him?" You're going to beat me to death. ”

"You-!" Zhou Yuan was half dead, threw the stick, and said: "The family is unfortunate!" ”
