What Xia Ziyan didn't expect was that Mrs. Yuan, her aunt did not interfere, not only that, but she also shook out one thing, a secret that was enough to sentence Xia Yusheng to death.

It's not because Xia Yuansheng was collecting debts before, and it's not because Xia Yuansheng's lion opened his mouth, and there are secrets she has never heard of.

In the hall of the county government, Mrs. Yuan testified that Xia Ziyan's father, Xia Yusheng, was the murderer behind the death of the old man of the Yuan family.

Xia Ziyan was also dumbfounded at that time, and Yuan Ziyi was even more speechless.

The old man of the Yuan family has been dead for almost 12 years, and he was killed by a group of masked gangsters when he was out doing business.

And that group of gangsters was instructed by Xia Yusheng.

Mrs. Yuan hid this matter for twelve years, and originally thought that there would never be a day when it would be revealed.

At that time, the relationship between the two of them was not bad, and Xia Lisheng often visited the Yuan family, but Mrs. Yuan knew that Xia Lisheng was called a visit, in fact, she wanted to inquire about the business situation of the Yuan family, so as to bring benefits to the Xia family.

Even, Xia Yusheng forced Mrs. Yuan, who had just married into the Yuan Mansion, to go to the study of the Yuan family to peek at his business letters.

Once Mrs. Yuan was unwilling, Xia Yusheng immediately took Mrs. Xia's order to pressure her, and Mrs. Yuan had to agree.

Later, even if Xia Yuansheng interfered and stole from it, the Yuan family's business was still thriving.

Although Xia Lisheng's business by taking information is getting bigger and bigger, his heart is too big and he wants too much, and finally one day, he has a business failure and is facing thousands of debts.

He ran to Yuan's house to find someone to help, and Master Yuan kindly paid off his debts, but who knows, he was still not satisfied, and even asked Mrs. Yuan to steal some of the Yuan family's land deeds and sell them for him to make a comeback.

At that time, Mrs. Xia, that is, their mother, had passed away, and she no longer had to listen to Xia Yusheng's words to refuse.

Who knows, Xia Yusheng was angry and found someone who was going to kidnap Master Yuan to threaten them to give them silver.

He didn't want to hurt Master Yuan's name, but who knows, the robbers he was looking for were useless, and when he fought with Master Yuan, he accidentally injured someone and stabbed Master Yuan in the heart.

Master Yuan died like this, and the robbers behind them were pinched by Xia Yuansheng because their parents, so even if they were caught, they did not sell Xia Yuansheng.

Mrs. Yuan also thought that those robbers were murdering for money, and when she was heartbroken, she heard Xia Yusheng instruct her henchmen to find someone to control the parents of those robbers.

Only then did she know what was going on, and in a fit of anger, she was going to confess Xia Yusheng.

Xia Yusheng threatened Mrs. Yuan, as long as she said it, he would also shake out the fact that the two of them had stolen the Yuan family's business before, and when the time came, the two of them would have to finish playing, and the elders of the Yuan family would not keep her.

Mrs. Yuan was afraid of the young Yuan Ziyi and the Yuan family's hundred-year-old industry, so she had to let go of her husband's killer Xia Yusheng.

After so many years, Mrs. Yuan finally had the opportunity to speak out about this matter.

Xia Ziyan thought of the situation at that time, and only felt heavy.

She didn't like her father, and she didn't like what he did, but she never thought that her father was a person who could kill people for money.

Her father was sentenced to death, pending execution early next month.

After saying this, Xia Ziyan didn't have a smile on her face, and sat directly on the stool next to her.

Looking at her like this, Qiao You moved her mouth, but she didn't know what to say.

It's true that Xia Yusheng suffered by himself, but that person is Xia Ziyan's father after all.

Suddenly, Qiao You remembered one thing, if Xia Yusheng was sentenced, then the Xia family in Jiangnan, who would inherit the family business from now on.

Thinking of this, she pulled Xia Ziyan to the gazebo in the backyard.

It's noon, the guests are eating in the front hall, and the guys are busy, and no one will notice them coming.

"Now is not the time to be sad." Qiao You brought some cool fruit water out of the house and sent it to Xia Ziyan.

Xia Ziyan was stunned for a moment, looked up at Qiao You, blinked her eyes, and didn't understand what she meant.

"Think about it, your father has been sentenced, and you don't want the foundation of your Xia family?"

The Xia family is the richest man in Jiangnan!

Who knows, as soon as Qiao You mentioned this, Xia Ziyan's face immediately turned scornful, and she said quietly: "It's all ill-gotten gains earned by my father, what's the use of coming?" ”

Qiao You was helpless, so he had to motivate her in another way: "You don't want to think about who will fall into the hands of this business if you don't want it." "Xia Yusheng has two daughters in this life, Xia Ziyan and Xia Zishu.

Xia Ziyan didn't want it, it was equivalent to sending it to Xia Zishu's hands for nothing.

When the time comes, the Xia family will be up and down, where can there still be the status of Xia Ziyan's mother and daughter.

Sure enough, hearing Qiao You say this, Xia Ziyan immediately came to her senses, and her malaise disappeared in an instant.

"You're right, the foundation of the Xia family can't fall into Xia Zishu's hands." Xia Zishu is almost the same as his father, he is black-hearted.

Besides, Xia Zishu is disgusted with their mother and daughter, in case this business falls into her hands, when the time comes, her mother will not be swept away?

She couldn't let that happen.

Thinking so, Xia Ziyan drank all the fruit water in front of her, then wiped her mouth and looked at Qiao You with a firm face.

"What should I do?"

Qiao You: "......"

She is still confused about feelings.

"Of course I'm back to Jiangnan, I guess that at this time, Xia Zishu is either on the way back, or has already gone back."

"yes, I have to go home first." Xia Ziyan got up, didn't take two steps but suddenly turned back, looked at Qiao You with a distressed expression, and said, "I don't think it's useful for me to go back, it's better for you to come with me, you are so smart, you can definitely help me." ”

Qiao You frowned, only thinking that she was joking, "How can I help you, this is your Xia family's business, besides, you have also seen it, I still have a restaurant to take care of." ”

Xia Ziyan went back, looked at Qiao You with blinking eyes, her face returned to her languishing, and said faintly: "You don't know, in the eyes of those clan elders, I am a second ancestor who is not doing his job, is short-tempered, and has a weak body. ”

Now that I think about what I did before, I really regret it when I take a bath.

She finally understood why Xia Zishu had been pretending to be a gentle and virtuous person.

Even if there is no situation today, if those clan elders choose one of the two of them to inherit the Xia family's family business, it will definitely be the "gentle and virtuous, sensible and generous" Xia Zishu.

Qiao You patted her on the shoulder and comforted, "I can't help you, but there is one person who can." ”

Qiao You immediately sat up, "Who." ”

"Feast."

There are so many capable people under him, it shouldn't be much to borrow one.

"Oh, it's your lover." Xia Ziyan looked like "I understand", as if the girl who had just wilted was not her.

Hearing Xia Ziyan's joking words, Qiao You did not deny it, and generously admitted it.

Qiao You took Xia Ziyan to Qiujie's casino.

Looking at all kinds of people in the casino, Xia Ziyan was a little surprised, "Qiao You, your lover won't gamble here, right?" ”

Qiao You immediately rewarded her with a violent shudder, did not answer her words, and left the person behind.

The little guy and the guard in the casino knew Qiao You, and when they saw her coming, they hurriedly invited people respectfully to the back yard to drink tea, and called Qiu Xie over.

Xia Ziyan recognized this old man, the same old man who locked Xia Zishu up last time.

I heard that it was called Qiu Jie, and she knew this name, because one-third of the casinos in the country were under the name of Qiu Jie, so he was also very famous in the Jiangnan area.

She didn't care about it last time, but now that she thinks about it, Qiao You's lover turned out to be the master behind this autumn solution.

How amazing his identity is!

Inexplicably, his appearance swallowed his saliva, and his gaze at Qiao You became a little different.

"Those two girls wait a while, and I'll send someone to invite the son over." Qiu Xie looked at Qiao You respectfully.

"Hmm."

Qiao You knew that Yan Pei's whereabouts were a little mysterious, so he didn't ask too much.

When Qiu Xie and the little girl left, Xia Ziyan jumped up from the chair violently, looked at Qiao You with a look of surprise, and said, "What is the identity of your lover, and you can still drive Qiu Jie?" ”

Qiao You wanted to say that he didn't know, but after thinking about Xia Ziyan's inquiring temperament, he said casually: "It's more dangerous, I can't say it." ”

"Dangerous?" Xia Ziyan was a little excited on her face, and she was not frightened by these two words.

"Yes, it's dangerous, so don't ask too much, otherwise, be careful that he doesn't help you." Qiao You threatened.

This is quite effective, being threatened by her like this, Xia Ziyan really didn't speak, and sat in the room honestly.

I don't know if Yan Pei has something to do outside or what, the two of them waited for a while and no one came, and the little guy at the door had already changed the tea in the house several times.

Xia Ziyan was bored, so she took Qiao You and the two of them around the casino.

The little guy was also afraid that something would happen to the two of them, so he kept following the two of them, and they went to which table they went to, and they introduced them to the gambling methods.

The two of them walked around the room, and the only thing they figured out was the size.

Seeing that the two of them were looking seriously, the little girl stepped forward and said, "Two girls, do you want to give it a try?" ”

Qiao You was about to refuse, but Xia Ziyan on the side was quick to speak, and she agreed at once.

Seeing Xia Ziyan take the silver ticket out, the amount was not small, and when she saw that she was going to bet, she immediately stopped: "Girl, the bet of one hundred taels is on the lower layer, and this layer is a small amount." ”

"And down there, down here?" Xia Ziyan pointed to the soles of their feet.

The little guy nodded.

The two of them walked to the underground floor, which was indeed different from the upper floor.

The people who came here looked dressed like ordinary people, and none of them were less than two hundred taels when they made a move.

"This is our underground casino, and the people who come here will be rich and rich." After all, a hundred taels of silver is already the income of ordinary people for several years.
