Chapter 404 Wu Kuo Comes to Vote (1)
In the evening, Yuxi talked with Qiushi until midnight.
Seeing Qiu's tired expression, Yu Xi said: "Mother, it's time to rest at night, I'll tell you about other things tomorrow."
Qiu Shi patted Yu Xi's hand and said, "Alright, you should go back soon!" In fact, Qiu Shi wanted to say a lot in his heart, but he weighed it in his heart and finally didn't say it.
When Yuxi left the yard, it was almost midnight. There is no moon at night, only a few stars are dotted in the sky!
As soon as I entered the yard, I saw that the light in the bedroom was still on. Walking into the room, looking at Yun Qing who was still reading the brochure, Yu Xi said unhappily: "It's so late, why haven't you slept yet? There are still a lot of things to be busy tomorrow!"
Yun Qing put down the notebook and asked, "What did you say to Mother?"
Yuxi's eyes narrowed into a line, and said: "What else can I say, I will naturally say hello." Yunqing's behavior today moved Yuxi very much, and she was also very happy.
Yun Qing took Yu Xi's hand and said: "It's okay for me, my mother-in-law will know it at a glance." With outsiders around, if Yun Qing made any intimate moves, Yu Xi would be unhappy. But if there are only two people, Yuxi will not reject it. Therefore, when the husband and wife are in the backyard, the mother-in-law and the maid will generally not come out to act as light bulbs.
Yuxi smiled and said, "I'm really confident."
The next day, Yu Xi originally wanted to accompany Qiu Shi well. But the next day, a very special person asked to see Yuxi.
Seeing the name Wu Kuo of the greeting post, Yuxi was a little surprised. After thinking about it, Yuxi said: "Let him come back in two days!"
Qiu Shi smiled and said: "You are busy with your work." Seeing Yu Xi not moving, Qiu Shi lightly pushed [UU Reading 00ks] and said: "Perhaps the person who saw you has something important to do? What if there is a delay?" , what should I do if something goes wrong?"
Yuxi pondered for a moment and said, "Mother, I'll go out and have a look, and I'll be back soon." The mother and daughter haven't seen each other for so many years, so they should have a good talk.
Lu Xiu waited for Yuxi to leave, then lowered her voice and said: "Mother, Fourth Sister is helping my uncle with government affairs, and it will be fine for a while, but we can't go on like this forever!"
Qiu Shi took off the Buddhist beads wrapped around her wrist and held it in her hand, and said softly: "You can just talk about it in front of me, don't talk about it in front of Yuxi."
Lu Xiu said: "Mom, I don't have any other intentions. It's just that the brother-in-law is high and powerful now, and the fourth sister should give birth to a son earlier to be safe." The relationship between husband and wife is good, but not having a son is also a big hidden danger.
Qiu Shi twirled the Buddha beads and said: "I think Yuxi has a sense of proportion in this matter, and Liu'er is only ten months old now, so she is not in a hurry." After a pause, Qiu Shi said: "In a few days, you Let's take Brother Shun to Yucheng! With you and the child by my side, I think Ye'er will be more stable."
Lu Xiu nodded and said, "Okay."
When they arrived at the front yard, Yuxi saw Wu Kuo. I saw Wu Kuo wearing a satin blue robe, which had a few stains on it, but looked very embarrassed.
Looking at Wu Kuo, Yu Xi was very surprised: "What's wrong with you? Something happened to the Wu family?" If he was still the heir of the Wu family, it would be impossible for him to be in such a mess.
Although Northwest and Jiangnan are far apart, it has to be said that Yuxi's news is still too late. Otherwise, he would have already known about the Wu family.
Seeing the grief on Wu Kuo's face. Yu Xifo made a move, and said: "Sit down and talk!" It is probably another drama where brothers fight for property, and in this battle, Wu Kuo is the loser.
Xu Wu stood beside Yuxi like a patron saint. After what happened last time, Yuxi is still very defensive in this regard. This is the helplessness of not knowing martial arts. Thinking of Yunqing, he doesn't need to be so cautious. Because he has enough ability to protect himself.
Wu Kuo did not sit down,
Still standing in the middle of the room: "This time I came to the northwest, I hope my wife can take in Wu." This is to go to Yuxi.
Jiangnan doesn't even have a place to stay for Wu Kuo, which shows how serious this matter is.
Yu Xi said: "Wu Kuo, I don't know the ins and outs, so I can't promise you." Although she guessed it in her heart, she didn't show it on her face.
Wu Kuo said: "My father died unexpectedly. Wu Qian framed me in order to seize the position of the patriarch." He always knew that Wu Qian was not willing for him to inherit the family business. Over the years, he kept making small moves, but he never thought of Wu Qian In order to seize the position of the head of the family, Qian even slandered him for killing his father.
Wu Meng will be murdered, it can be said that he was unprepared that Wu Qian would kill him. But Wu Meng, an heir who is slandered and has no room to fight back, is definitely a failure, so Yu Xi does not sympathize with Wu Kuo.
Seeing Yu Xi's expression, Wu Kuo couldn't understand, and smiled wryly: "My mother is also on Wu Qian's side." Wu Kuo's mother-in-law Yu's accusation made Wu Kuo's murder of his father a reality. up.
Yuxi felt a little sympathetic to Wu Kuo now. If parents can't keep a bowl of water level, it will not only affect the temperament of their children, but also make brothers and sisters turn against each other.
Since Wu Kuo has decided to join Yuxi, he will naturally explain everything clearly: "Wu Qian poisoned my food to make everyone think that I committed suicide in fear of crime."
Yu Xi frowned and said, "So you escaped?"
Wu Kuo said: "Just when I was preparing to deal with Wu Qian, I found out that my father was killed by members of the Yu family." In a word, let Yuxi know that Wu Kuo escaped not because of Wu Qian, but because of the Yu family. .
Only then did Yu Xi nod, which was reasonable: "Why did the Yu family want to kill your father?" The Wu family is actually the Yu family's pocketbook, which many people know. The Yu family's plan to kill Wu Meng is probably because the members of the Yu family felt that Wu Meng was disobedient and wanted to change to someone who was obedient, and this person was definitely not Wu Kuo. From the time when Wu Kuo went to the Northwest to do business, it can be seen that Wu Kuo wanted to get rid of the control of the Yu family.
Wu Kuo didn't hide anymore at this time, and said: "My father was worried that the Yu family would kill the donkey in the future, so he took precautions." As a result, he was discovered by the Yu family, so his father was about to be eliminated.
Yu Xi said: "What precautions did your father take?" Seeing that Wu Kuo didn't say anything, Yu Xi smiled and said: "If it's not convenient to say, then forget it."
With bitterness on his face, Wu Kuo said, "It's not inconvenient to say, it's because my father didn't tell me." If he knew, he would have a bargaining chip in his hand.
Seeing that Yuxi was silent, Wu Kuo said, "I really don't know."
Seeing this, Yu Xi knew that Wu Kuo's backhands were not gold and silver treasures: "You want revenge?" The revenge of killing your father is not the same. Of course, it's a different matter if she doesn't have the slightest affection for her biological father like her.
Wu Kuo nodded and said, "Yes, I want revenge." It's a pity that the Yu family has power and influence, and relying on himself alone is like hitting a stone with an egg.
Yu Xi said lightly: "Yu Xiang has already passed, and the Yu family has no one at the helm, and it will soon fall." What Yu Xi said meant that Wu Kuo did not need to rush to revenge.
Wu Kuo shook his head and said, "Ma'am, although the eldest master of the Yu family lacks courage, his son Yu Chunhao is a smart man. With both father and son around, the Yu family cannot fail for the time being."
It was just a coincidence that there was a shortage of someone who could do business and make money, so Wu Kuo begged to come here. Yuxi didn't believe that she was such a lucky person, so she immediately asked, "If you want revenge, I can't help you." She has her own plan, and it is impossible for her to make a plan because of Wu Kuo.
Wu Kuo said bluntly: "I didn't want my wife to help me avenge me. I will take revenge for killing my father. I just hope that my wife can take me in and give me a place to stay."
Yuxi nodded and said: "I never take in useless people."
Wu Kuo said: "Madam, I think Madam must be short of money, and this is what I am good at." Making money is his skill.
Yu Xi said calmly, "Aren't you afraid of falling into your father's fate? Be my tool to make money?" Wu Meng, isn't that the Yu family's tool for making money in Jiangnan.
Wu Kuo said without hesitation: "I believe Madam is not someone who kills donkeys." These words came from his heart.
Yuxi smiled, and did not respond to this, but leaned on the chair, and said to Wu Kuo: "What is the real purpose of you seeking refuge with me? If you don't tell the truth, I won't keep you." Give her money, there is no such thing as a pie in this world.
Wu Kuo said: "I hope my wife will allow my sons to become officials in the future." What this means is that Wu Kuo wants to change his family.
Yu Xi asked calmly: "Are you planning to bring your wife and children to the Northwest?" If Wu Kuo was willing to bring his wife and children to the Northwest, Yu Xi would still believe him. If not, she would definitely not believe what Wu Kuo said.
Wu Kuo nodded and said, "When I'm settled here, I'll send someone to pick them up." This was a show of loyalty.
Yu Xi nodded in agreement.
After Wu Kuo left, Yu Xi frowned and said, "Immediately check whether what Wu Kuo said is true?" In fact, even if Wu Kuo brought his wife and children, Yu Xi did not dare to trust him 100%. Because she was afraid that what would fall was not a pie, but a discus.
Xu Wu nodded.
Regarding Wu Kuo's behavior, even his confidant Wu Shun didn't quite understand. Wu Shun said: "Master, what is there about this Han family that is worth our lives?"
Wu Kuo said: "I just want to gamble. If I win, I will earn a bright future for my descendants. If I lose, it will not be worse than now."
Wu Shun didn't understand: "A bright future?"
Wu Kuo nodded and said: "Mr. Han is a very ambitious person, and Yunqing is good at fighting and has strong generals like clouds. They won't be trapped in this tiny place in the northwest." He will conspire with Yuxi to take over the world.
Wu Shun opened his mouth, no wonder his uncle traveled all the way to the northwest, it turned out to be like this! With a change of mind, Wu Shun began to worry again: "Madam Ke Yun didn't give an accurate answer, did she?"
Wu Kuo was not worried, and said, "Madam Yun, I can't find a better candidate than me for the time being." His experience and connections are unmatched by others. Therefore, Wu Kuo is not at all worried that Yuxi will abandon him. On this point, Wu Kuo is very confident. (to be continued)
