In the end, it was a chronic poison and drug that hurt her body. The old lady cried for a while and then fell asleep. Her already old face became even more haggard, and her gray hair had turned into silver threads in just three months, quite a bit. Dying Elephant. Zhao Luli sat quietly beside the bed to guard him, his heart was like a knife, and he felt unbearable remorse.
After waiting for half an hour, he remembered Ye Zhen who was still busy in the warehouse, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.
At this time, the sky was completely dark, and the lanterns on the eaves were already lit. The companion who was recalled by Ye Zhen also handed a kerosene lamp to illuminate the place brightly, lest Ye Zhen, who was seriously checking the account, saw something wrong and ate a lot. deficit. Zhao Wangshu held a stack of account books in his hand and circled around her, his eyes full of admiration. Zhao Chunxi leaned against the door frame with a sneering expression.
"Don't be too busy, Guan Suyi will never be greedy for anything from you. How can she like these vulgar things? Save others by herself, if you were her, this warehouse would have been emptied long ago? No wonder you So nervous."
"Sister, how can you say that about your mother? The property has been passed through the hands of others. Shouldn't you check it out? These are all things of your mother, and it is only natural for her to take it back." Zhao Wangshu immediately replied.
"You idiot! If you thought she was your own mother, she would really treat you well... " Zhao Chunxi was shaking with anger. In the past three months, every time she was forced by Ye Zhen, she had to hand over her stewardship rights, and she became more and more aware of her true face. For her own selfish interests, she can betray everything and ignore everything, she has no heart at all!
"Sister, you must have been deceived by the Guan family. Look at how she treated me, she actually made me the dignified young master of the Zhao family to go to a private school to study, and let me hang out with a bunch of poor boys. In the future, I can What's the big deal? Dad clearly hired a great scholar Mr. Lu for me, but he was almost angry with her. She deliberately raised me to abandon me so that she could be a stepping stone for her own son. She left, and we are a family of five. Only then can I have a happy birthday. You call me stupid, but you are really stupid, and you can't even tell the difference between good people, bad people, outsiders, and family members."
Three months of brainwashing was enough to make Zhao Wangshu guard his stepmother to the bottom of his bones, and he turned to obey his mother.
Zhao Chunxi was already speechless, and was about to slap his sleeves and leave, but saw his father standing in a dark corner, his eyes seemed to have countless hazes, but they were surprisingly bright. He walked in slowly and asked in a warm voice, "Have you checked it out? Did you lose something?"
Ye Zhen said reluctantly, "I haven't lost it for the time being." If there was even one thing missing, she would immediately hit the Guan family and tear off Guan Suyi's face. For some reason, she just hates her, hates her to the core!
"It's getting late. Check back tomorrow. You follow me to the main hall, I have something to say." He left first, giving no room for others to refuse. Ye Zhen winked at the companion room, and then followed. There were not many things, so she destroyed a few pieces, and finally went to Guan Suyi to ask for it and see how she explained it.
A lot of candles were lit in the main hall, and the two men were kneeling and sitting on the ground. When they heard the footsteps, they couldn't help but look back in horror, and they happened to meet Ye Zhen. She breathed abruptly, but in an instant she was sweating like a waterfall, soaking through her back. She had never seen the Miao person, but the staff were too familiar with him. If he hadn't run fast back then, he would have turned into a dead bone now. Zhao Luli tied him, did he know something
Ye Zhen held the door frame and did not dare to enter for a long time. Seeing that her face was wrong, Zhao Wangshu quickly stepped forward to help her, and half dragged her in.
Zhao Luli lifted the half-empty wine jar and took a big mouthful. Huo Shengzhe is right, he really needs this thing now. His limbs are cold, his blood is cold, but his heart is not cold, because his heart has long been trampled into powder by Ye Zhen.
"I thought about it for a long time, should I let you know what kind of person your mother is. I want to send her away in secret, let her die outside without a sound, and I'm afraid you will follow me to ask her whereabouts, I will look for her all my life, miss her, and I will never let go. I have had enough of this kind of suffering, and I cannot let you repeat the same mistakes." The strong smell of alcohol spread across the room as his lips opened and closed.
"Daddy, what are you talking about?" Zhao Wangshu was puzzled.
Zhao Chunxi buried his head deeply.
"What I'm talking about, your sister must know very well." Zhao Luli locked the door, closed the window tightly, and said word by word, "This matter has to start from the beginning, you all listen quietly and don't interrupt. I don't want to let it go. You bear those unbearable pasts, but you are even more reluctant to be used by your own mother, and eventually die inexplicably. If you think that she is weak and pitiful and needs protection, then you are very wrong. Yin damage, Wei Guo is afraid that no one will be able to outperform..."
As the candle swayed, the light and shadow changed, and all kinds of things were brought to him one by one back then, including how the old lady was poisoned and comatose. Zhao Chunxi's face was already numb, but Zhao Wangshu was like a thunderclap, shaking his soul.
"Impossible! Dad, you must have been deceived by the Guan family!" He turned to La Ye Zhen and urged, "Mother, I believe in you. I clearly saw my aunt that day, she is alive and well, mother How could it be her!"
Ye Zhen shook her head and wept while hugging her son, as if she could not bear such slander. But she was very clear in her heart, and there were witnesses and physical evidence, and Zhao Luli was afraid that she would no longer be able to tolerate her. Her painstakingly fabricated lies can only deceive Zhao Wangshu.
"What do you want to do with me?" Her voice was rough like a gravel. "If you don't send me away, you want me to die of a sudden illness? Are you not afraid that your son will hate you?"
"Died from a sudden illness? How could it be?" Zhao Luli suddenly laughed, "You may not know, Su Yi has already got what you want most. I want you to see the situation that day with your own eyes, and also want to know what you will be able to do. What kind of expression do you show? What kind of disease did your mother have before, what kind of disease you have, just lie down on the bed, the Zhao family does not lack your food."
He took a sip of wine and turned to look at Zhao Wangshu, with a cold tone, "I know you have a temperament like mine, you are blind in your eyes and heart, and you typically don't cry without seeing the coffin. Since you think Ye Zhen is all for your own good, she I won't dismiss Mr. Lu, who came back, and I won't sell the bookboys she brought back. Just follow the route she arranged for you, and you'll see whether it's a dragon or a worm. If you don't repent for a day, I will not care about you for a day, lest you say that I slander Ye Zhen and hurt you even more."
He was half-drunk looking at his daughter and smiled, "Back then, you were most like Ye Zhen, helping her deceive me and let me end up where I am today. Now you are becoming more and more puffed-up, strong and resolute, discerning right from wrong. Good, very good. My Zhao family was finally not destroyed by Ye Zhen! Let's go, let's go, let me stay in peace for a while."
As soon as he finished speaking, two lame servants pushed open the door and walked in, dragging the terrified Ye Zhen down. Zhao Wangshu was stunned for a while, but after all, he chased out, calling out to his mother in a hurry.
Zhao Chunxi is now remorseful and choked, "Dad, when you were drunk and made a big mistake, are you going to repeat the same mistake now? Don't let Guan Suyi look down on you!"
This sentence knocked Zhao Luli up like a heavy hammer, and like a person who fell off a cliff grabbing a vine, instantly stopping the momentum of the fall, preventing him from being shattered. He threw away the wine jar and murmured, "Yes, you are right. I can't make Suyi look down on it. I have to wash and sleep well, and go to Liuzhou tomorrow to discuss a deal. I will take the Zhao family again. Hold up, these old, weak and remnant soldiers in the house, and those orphans of soldiers and soldiers in Zhuangzi are all waiting for me to support them."
"Hey, my daughter will help you go back. You have a good night's sleep, and everything will be fine when you wake up tomorrow." Zhao Chunxi's heart finally fell, and her tears burst. It turns out that what kind of person you fall in love with will get what kind of return, love is wrong, only despair, love is right, even if you experience loss, you still have endless courage.

Close the house.
Guan Suyi Mei Mei had a meal, walked around the yard with Mu Mu and grandfather to digest food, and then went to Daddy's study to practice calligraphy.
"What are you going to do in the future?" Father Guan spread out a piece of Xue Xuan and asked casually.
"I haven't figured it out yet, but I definitely won't get married."
"Then go back to Jiaozhou to accompany your grandfather and grandmother. If it wasn't for your relationship with the late queen mother and the emperor's eyes, there would have been rumors all over the capital. If we take it seriously, people will criticize you. I look down on the Zhao family, and I dislike Zhao Luli's white body, so I rush to reconcile. You go to Jiaozhou to live for a while, and then come back after the word has passed. "
Guan Suyi's heart was filled with resentment, "Don't say that I didn't reconcile because of this, or that I disliked the low ranking of the Zhao family. It's easy to talk about others, but it's difficult to look at yourself. Just call any noble lady in Beijing with you. I'll change it and see if they can bear it! If they like to talk about it, they say, I'll live my life as usual, what's the fear?"
Guan's father frowned, "Are you going to Jiaozhou? Mr. Lu sent an article a few days ago to attack you, saying that you treat your stepson harshly, disrespect your teacher, how to send him away, and how to throw Zhao Wangshu into a private school. You have been widely publicized. Because your reputation is linked with the Queen Mother, others dare not criticize it, but you should know what you think in your heart. Your brother is implicated by you, there are no disciples in the private school, and now you can only Drink the northwest wind. How many people have you offended and how many criticisms have you caused with your upright temper? If it wasn't for your luck and the emperor's protection, how could you stand here and practice calligraphy? Sent to the temple!"
Guan Suyi's grievance disappeared, and she quickly grabbed Guan's father and explained, "Dad, can't I go to Jiaozhou? Then Mr. Lu is addicted to alcohol and drunk all day, how can he give pointers to his disciples? My daughter is right, but it hurts my senior brother. It's true, I will go to him tomorrow to make amends!"
"Forget it, you are the same as your grandfather, you can say whatever you think in your heart. I don't expect you to change it. I will be lucky if you don't cause me some trouble. If the emperor can protect you once, how can he protect you for the rest of your life?" Guan Fu His eyes flickered slightly, and he pondered, "I have written a letter to your grandfather, and I will arrange your departure in the near future."
Guan Suyi responded indifferently, practiced her calligraphy for a while absent-mindedly, and then went back to sleep. As soon as she opened the door, she was pulled by a large hand and gently dragged over.
