Chapter 242: Strike first

After Shi Laosan entered the town, he went to the gambling house to find Shi Laosi.

Seeing that Shi Laosi was completely addicted to gambling, Shi Laosan felt that he might be in trouble in the future.

But he also tried a lot of persuasion, but this bastard’s younger brother didn’t listen.

He took the person out and walked to a deserted alley.

Shi Laosan handed the medicine in his arms to Shi Laosi: “Drink it.”

At this time, Shi Laosi was in the mood for gambling, so he asked impatiently: “What is it?”

Shi Laosan was too lazy to be verbose and pointed out the interests directly: “Do you still want the Wu Family’s property?”

Only then did Shi Laosi remember what his mother had said before she went into the city.

He asked worriedly: “Isn’t this poison?”

Shi Laosan slapped him in the face and said: “It’s not real poison. Drink it, and I’ll give you the antidote after the Wu Family is brought down.”

“Then take your wife and quickly divide the Wu Family’s property back to the village.”

Shi Laosi was still hesitating: “What should I do if there is a problem with drinking?”

At this moment, Shi Laosan lost his patience: “If you don’t drink, forget it. From now on, the Wu Family won’t have your share. When you run out of money from gambling, you can go begging on the street.”

When Shi Laosi heard this, he gritted his teeth and said: “Okay, I’ll drink.”

Shi Laosi, who has been used to enjoying things recently, doesn’t want to live a life without money again.

So he took the medicine and drank it.

When Shi Laosan saw that he had finished drinking the medicine, he felt relieved.

So he whispered: “You should go back to the Wu Family now. Tomorrow, Mother will take us to see you and make a fuss.”

Shi Laosi, who originally wanted to go back to the gambling house, could only nod: “I understand.”

Shi Laosan was worried and personally sent him to the street where the Wu Family Mansion was, and watched him enter before returning to the village.

The next day.

Shi Qingluo thought for a while and took Xiao Baili to the Shi Family’s house.

She planned to follow behind them to watch the show. And let her sister-in-law see better.

And because she cooperated with Mo Qingling, she was afraid that the Shi Family would go back to their words, so she had to monitor them.

When Old Lady Shi and others heard that Shi Qingluo was going, they naturally welcomed her.

If she went with them, they would feel more at ease.

The Shi Family now had a carriage, so the group took two carriages into the city.

Old Lady Shi and others often went to the Wu Family Mansion to catch the autumn breeze. So now, the housekeeper and servants were used to it.

At first, they would not let anyone in, but Old Lady Shi and her daughters-in-law would sit at the gate and cry, making the Wu Family embarrassed.

The headmaster of the Wu Family ordered that when the Shi Family comes, just let them in.

Just don’t let them appear in front of him and be an eyesore.

So the group of people entered the Wu Family Mansion smoothly and went to the courtyard where Shi Laosi lived.

Shi Laosi was lying weakly on the bed, looking like he was about to die at any time.

Old Lady Shi felt very distressed after entering the door.

She also gave Shi Qingluo a questioning look: Is everything alright?

Shi Qingluo gave her a comforting look.

She looked at Shi Laosi in surprise: “Foruth Uncle, what’s wrong with you?”

Shi Laosi wanted to roll his eyes. This girl asked knowingly.

After taking the medicine, he suffered a lot from last night to today, including vomiting and diarrhea, stomachache, and dizziness.

“I, I might, might have been poisoned.” He gasped and said intermittently.

Old Lady Shi immediately rushed over and cried: “Oh my God, how could the Wu Family do such a thing?”

Then she kept cursing.

The maids waiting around felt their ears dirty when they heard it.

Shi Qingluo saw that Old Lady Shi was deeply immersed in her drama and could not be stopped at the moment. She could only say to the others: “Go and ask the doctor to come and take a look.”

Shi Laosan gave Shi Laoer a wink.

The other party immediately ran to ask for the doctor.

When the doctor came over, he checked his pulse and determined that Shi Laosi was poisoned, and he couldn’t cure it.

Old Lady Shi immediately burst into tears and ran to the main courtyard of the Wu Family to cause trouble.

At that time, Shi Laosan also took the opportunity to run away and went to the county government office to report the crime.

At the Wu Family Study Room.

The headmaster of the Wu Family asked Young Master Wu: “When will you be able to close the net of your trap?”

Young Master Wu smiled and replied: “The net will be closed in 2 days. Shi Laosi has recently owed hundreds of taels to the gambling house. When he owes a thousand taels, it will be his death.”

He curled his lips and said: “If he doesn’t pay the money then, I will let everyone know about his involvement in the gambling house.”

“Then go to the village to find Old Lady Shi and others to ask for the account.”

“Once the Shi Family couldn’t do anything, they will go to Shi Qingluo and Xiao Hanzheng to ask for help.”

He squinted his eyes viciously and said: “If the two couples don’t help pay the debt, the person collecting the debt can use his fists to speak.”

“When the time comes, our people will accidentally break Xiao Hanzheng’s hand. He won’t be able to take the imperial examination by then. He can only blame his bad luck, and blame Shi Lao Si for being a troublemaker.”

They have always been very afraid of Xiao Hanzheng.

Especially when they heard that Enke will be held at the beginning of next year. Xiao Hanzheng has a famous teacher to guide him, and he will also take the exam.

They were a little anxious. After combining the ideas of people from the capital with their ideas, they began to make plans.

As long as Xiao Hanzheng’s path to the imperial examination can be cut off, he will be useless.

Not only do they no longer have to worry about Xiao Hanzheng’s revenge when he becomes an official, but they can also make the mysterious figure in the capital happy.

The headmaster of the Wu Family nodded with satisfaction: “If we finish cleaning up early, we won’t have to worry about going to Fucheng.”

However, they obviously would not have thought that Shi Qingluo and her husband had already struck first.

Suddenly there was a noise in the yard next to them. The headmaster of the Wu Family asked someone to come in and ask questions.

Then he suddenly got a headache when he heard that Old Lady Shi brought people from the Shi Family to make trouble, saying that the Wu Family was responsible for the poisoning of Shi Laosi.

With a gloomy face, he said: “These people in the Shi Family should all die.”

When things are done, he’ll make sure these people have accidents one by one. He was fed up with them.

Because of his plot, Young Master Wu thought that these people were almost dead, so he was not so angry.

“Father, let’s go out and take a look, so as not to make trouble outside and be embarrassed later.”

They have transferred their industries to Fucheng and were also preparing to move directly.

In addition to being stared at by Mo Qingling, he was afraid of being attacked by the other party.

Another reason was that the Shi Family ruined the reputation of the Wu family in the country.

The headmaster of the Wu Family nodded helplessly: “Okay, let’s go out and take a look.”

This was the last time.

The two of them walked out of the study and went to the side yard.

When they entered the main hall, they saw Old Lady Shi and her daughter-in-law pushing his old mother and his wife to the floor and beating them. The headmaster’s face suddenly changed.

“You shrews, get out of here.” This was the first time Old Madam Wu had been beaten by someone after so many years of pampering. She was going crazy.

But the person who answered her words was Old Lady Shi’s big mouth: “You damn old woman, your family dares to harm my son, I won’t let you go.”

Ah!” Old Madam Wu screamed repeatedly.

Madam Wu was also beaten by Mrs. Niu and others.

They had long been wanting to hit this woman who always looked down on them. Unfortunately, they never had the chance.

Shi Qingluo took Shi Laoda and other men to stop the young men and maids who were going to help.

She had no sympathy for the two people who were being held down and beaten.

Her husband found out that these two women from the Wu Family were the ones who wanted her sister-in-law to be burry alive.

If the Taoist Priests hadn’t said that maids could not be married and buried, that they should marry the daughter of innocent families. They wanted to give the young master several maids as concubines to be buried with him.

So she provoked Old Lady Shi and others to beat these two beasts.
