Chapter 286 Cleaning up Work

Mrs. Sun Yaxing, who had been serving as the backdrop, lowered her eyes, stood upright and said nothing.

The second brother Zhuangtou was not as healthy as his eldest brother, and died a quarter of an hour later. The remaining people in Zhuangtou's family were even more panicked, fearing that they would be next, trembling and squeezing each other, as if whoever was pushed out would be killed. Like death.

Lianyi then waved her little hand to Sun Yapo, and Yapo immediately walked up to Lianyi, blessed her body, and said with a smile:

"Grandma Sun has met the young lady!"

"Well, my father just passed away after thanking Yapo for going there. I didn't want to see any blood, but these naughty slaves thought that I was an orphan and easy to bully, so they had no choice but to make an exception and make Sun Yapo laugh!"

"Miss, please relax and deal with the culprit. Naturally, these slaves will not dare to have second thoughts."

Sun Yapo said respectfully.

The little girl in front of her is only twelve years old, but she has outstanding appearance, mature mind and decisiveness in dealing with things. If it were an ordinary twelve-year-old girl, her face would have turned pale with fear at this time, and the other party could still talk to her without changing her expression. She would definitely be a ruthless person when she grew up.

"According to Sun Yapo's auspicious words, I will sell the remaining people to you. You can take care of it, but you can't sell them all to the same place."

Ripple took out a stack of renunciation deeds from the box on the table, belonging to fourteen people in total, and handed them directly to Sun Yapo.

"yes."

Yapo took the deed of sale, and with the cooperation of the guards, after checking it, she took out a one hundred tael silver note from her sleeve and handed it over with both hands.

Luo Ying accepted it on behalf of her own lady, and asked the guards to find ropes, and tied up the rest of the Zhuangtou family, like strings of candied haws on a stick.

The remaining members of the Zhuangtou family breathed a sigh of relief. It was better to be sold than to be killed by the master's family, as long as they could survive.

Lianyi was also tired from sitting, so she left the rest of the finishing work to Wu Zhong, and she went to take a nap.

Wu Zhong beat the villagers again, and then everyone dispersed. The entire village was extremely quiet that day. There were no children running around and no men going to the ground. Everyone was nestled in their adobe houses, surrounded by a family. The master repeatedly asked not to offend the young lady, the consequences would not be something they could bear.

The Wu Liang family of Zhuangtou was the best example. Although the other party brought it upon themselves and they usually hated this family, they were still a little frightened to see the adult men in the other party's family being beaten to death and all the remaining people being sold.

After Lianyi woke up and ate a nest of red date and lotus seed soup, Wu Zhong came in and reported:

"Miss, I gave the two government servants two taels of silver each to pay for the carriage, and they happened to leave with Sun Yapo and others.

I saw that the two older girls from Zhuangtou's family had hatred in their eyes and seemed to be very dissatisfied with the young lady, so I asked Ya Po to be sold to a prostitute alone. "

After hearing this, Lianyi raised her eyebrows and did not refute the other person. She just motioned for him to continue speaking.

"The Zhuangtou family has confiscated a lot of things. Luo Huai has already registered them all. What do you think Miss should do with them?"

"Divide all the things, one for each person according to the head count, and the underage children will be counted as half. Since they have been beaten with a stick, they should be given a date. These things are exploited by the village head."

"It's because the young lady is thoughtful and shows kindness and power at the same time that those people will be obedient."

After Wu Zhong complimented him, he lowered his voice and said:

"Miss, one month after the master passes away, I will burn some paper money for him and take care of that matter."

"I know, don't leave any traces."

"Don't worry, Miss, I will take care of this."

That night, twenty households in Zhuangzi were all alarmed by the knocking on the door, but they all got an unexpected reward. Butler Wu brought Luo Huai, Wu An and two guards to deliver the things.

"Miss is kind. I know that you have been oppressed by Wu Liang over the years and have suffered a lot. These things are given to you by Miss. I hope you can stay in Zhuangzi with peace of mind and take good care of it. Good times are yet to come."

The villagers immediately thanked him for entering the yard and promised to work hard.

The boy who first jumped out to identify Wu Liang was brought to see Lianyi by Wu Zhong.

"May I have your name?"

"Chu Liangchen."

"It's a good name. Who named it?"

"Father! He went to private school for a few years, but his health was not good and he died early. Only my mother was left to take care of our siblings. As a result, my sister..."

After all, Chu Liangchen was young and his eyes were red, but he was too stubborn to shed tears.

"Let your mother be responsible for the three meals a day for the guards in the outer courtyard. You should first learn some boxing skills and read some words from the guards. On weekdays, like Wu An, you will run errands for the housekeeper. It is always beneficial to learn more."

Ripple said with a slight smile.

"Thank you, miss! Liang Chen will definitely learn his skills and repay miss in the future!"

As he spoke, he knelt down.

Lianyi was not used to being kneeled down, so she signaled to Wu An, who pulled Chu Liangchen up.

In the following days, Lianyi basically stayed in the yard, and began to recuperate the original body, exercise, and lay a solid foundation for improving his strength.

Seven days later, at noon, when it was the hottest time, a fire broke out in the Yizhuang outside the city, burning some unclaimed corpses that had not been placed in coffins. Fortunately, the loss was not big, and the fire was caused by dry weather. The guards of the Yizhuang The old man was scolded and the matter was settled.

"Miss, those corpses have been changed beyond recognition, and because of the fire, the old man in Yizhuang simply buried them without leaving any traces."

"Just pretend this never happened and don't mention it in the future."

"yes!"

Li family in Beijing

It has been more than a month since Li Jizu left the capital. During this period, no news has come back. The wife of the head of the Li family's house is a little worried. Recently, she has been having nightmares, in which her son is covered in blood and fire. She asked for help, but her heart felt like a stone was weighing on her. She could only go to the head of the Li family to cry.

"Master, I have been feeling unhappy these past two days. My step-grandfather has been away for so long, why has there been no news back?"

Li Renyu also frowned, stroked the beard on his chin, and said in a deep voice:

"Don't worry, madam. I have arranged for escorts to go to Jiangnan to inquire about the Wu family."

"If Wu Youcai really dies, that twelve-year-old girl will definitely not be able to keep the family property and will have to rely on us. Why not let the stepfather take her as his concubine? After getting the family wealth, it will not delay the stepfather's marriage. It can help his first wife get started.”

Li Qinshi had already made a wishful thinking.

"This matter is not urgent. Let's see what the girl's temperament is first. Don't get into the Li family's door and cause trouble based on money."

Li Renyu (yu) is even more hypocritical, wanting both dignity and face.

"Okay, listen to me! Now that she has to keep her filial piety, it would be unlucky to bring her into the house. Besides, there are people from the second house keeping an eye on her, so we have to be on guard."

See you tomorrow~
