1044: [Zuri] He came late at night(1/2)
Outside the villa, the car stopped.
Wei Xun jumped out of the car, walked steadily and quickly into the courtyard gate, and headed to the attic.
Seeing that there were no young men in the room, Wei Xun walked to the window and touched the thick curtain cloth with his hands.
Then, he pulled out an invisible rope and pulled it slightly.
Lu Yanbei in the secret room heard the ringing of the bell on the wall, raised his eyes and then closed the documents on the table and put them in the drawer.
I got up, opened the mechanism, and pushed the wall away.
When Wei Xun saw him come out, he immediately stepped forward: "Young Marshal, I found the latest news about Lu Chenjiu."
Wei Xun followed him to the desk, and saw that his face was solemn and silent, he paused and then said:
"He defected to a Frenchman named Smith."
Lu Yanbei looked at him, his eyebrows and eyes frowned slightly, "Smith?"
"Yes, this person has close contact with the military leaders, and many warlords buy arms through him. Therefore, those high-ranking officials gave him face, fearing that they would not be able to get Western arms if they offend him."
Wei Xun's four sea sect has the power all over the place, and as long as he is a well-known figure, he will know about it.
"Lu Chenjiu has been working in the wharf for many years. No matter what his power is, he can still get in touch with some connections. He is also good at dancing and worldly. In order to achieve his goals, Westerners like to recruit such people to do things."
"But, Smith is insidious and cunning. In addition to doing arms deals, he has done many things that are despicable on weekdays. Lu Chenjiu defected to him, but he is afraid that he will forget his ancestors in the future and do all his efforts to exploit his compatriots."
Lu Yanbei hated the traitors who betrayed his compatriots the most in his life. Before Wei Xun could say this, his face turned gloomy.
"Does he have anything to do with Su Ze's death?"
"It's still being investigated, but I think that since he surrendered to Smith, the suspicion would be even greater. Smith's men have raised a group of people who specialize in killing and robbing people. Lu Chenjiu was disgraced because of Dr. Su and died on the first day of the Lunar New Year. It is said that even the doctor could not be invited before his death. He rushed back from the concession and did not even see the old mother for the last time."
Lu Yanbei found it very strange.
"Even if the people under Smith do things cleanly, after all, they are in broad daylight, can't even be found in a single witness?"
Wei Xun also felt confused.
"There is no clue yet. According to the young man who helped Dr. Su back, he found Dr. Su at the entrance of an old courtyard.
At that time, Doctor Su came out of the inside himself, but was exhausted and fainted at the door. When he found out, he immediately sent Doctor Su back to the mansion of Su."
Lu Yanbeidao: "According to this calculation, Su Ze must have seen someone in front of him, who was deliberately led to the old courtyard. After the murderer attacked inside, he escaped quietly."
"Yes, that's what it is. I've already seen that courtyard myself, except for some blood, there are no clues. This also further shows that the other party is indeed a professional killer."
Lu Yanbei pondered for a moment and suddenly said, "Send more people to guard Su Mansion."
"I have arranged the secret guard of Sihaimen."
"Um."
If the other party comes for revenge, it is afraid that killing Su Ze alone will not be enough.
Lu Yanbei was worried about the safety of Zuli.
***
After Su Ze was buried, Su Li returned home and saw many servants standing in the courtyard, making noise.
Zhang's mother looked at her and stepped forward and said, "Miss, they are all going to quit their jobs."
After all, the head of the family is gone, and the family is left with the elderly, weak, women and children, and there is no shelter.
In addition, Su Ze died in a miserable state and died miserably. Everyone knew that this was revenge.
They were also worried that they would be in danger of continuing to stay in the Su family.
Su Li understood and nodded lightly: "Those who want to leave, pay the wages and let them go. If you are willing to stay, your wages will be half."
After saying that, regardless of the reactions of these people, he walked towards the backyard.
Qin Fengyun was still ill in bed.
Su Li pushed the door open and saw that she was about to get up, so she hurried forward to support her.
"Mom, what are you going to do?"
"I suddenly thought of it? The herbs that your father has posted have not been collected yet-"
Qin Fengyun murmured.
When Zu Li heard this, tears came up.
"Mom??I have collected the medicinal materials. Don't worry, lie down well."
"I've collected it? That's good, your dad cares about the medicinal materials?"
Qin Fengyun murmured, leaned back to the bed and coughed twice.
Seeing that Su Li's temples became pale overnight, her heart hurt even more.
"Mom, my dad is gone, and now you are the only one in my daughter. You must cheer up and take care of yourself."
Holding his mother's hand, Zu Li said sadly, worried that his mother would not be able to withstand the blow and would not be able to afford to be ill.
Qin Fengyun leaned against the bedside and shed tears. After a while, she said, "Will your father be there be lonely?"
After hearing this, Zu Li became more and more determined.
After sitting quietly with my mother for a while, Zuli went to visit the old man again.
When Mr. Su heard the bad news, he fainted when he returned to the Su family and remained bedridden afterwards.
Su Li looked into the old man's pulse, but he saw that the pulse was not good and he was in an extremely heavy mood.
The old man woke up quietly and asked weakly: "Li'er's funeral is finished?"
"Um."
Su Li whispered and comforted: "Grandpa, my dad has been buried. Please choose a good land for Feng Shui Master. Don't worry, everything is done."
The old man nodded with difficulty and said, "I am afraid that my old bone will not last a few days. When I leave, don't bury me - burn it with fire and send my ashes back to the mountain."
When Zu Li heard the old man say this, he felt even more uncomfortable.
"Grandpa, will you live a hundred years old?"
The old man's mouth squirmed, and he didn't know what he said, and slowly fell asleep again.
There were beatings and scolding outside, and Su Li frowned, helped the old man cover the quilt, got up and went out.
"I told you to clean up my room! What does it look like? Don't think that the master is gone, so no one cares about you! Get it clean up again for me!"
Liu Yunhui scolded and kicked the servant hard.
Su Li walked forward and before he could speak, Liu Yunhui hugged his arms with both hands and said sarcastically: "Oh, the broom star is here."
Zu Li ignored it and just said coldly: "A lot of servants in the family have left, and the rest are all about the relationship between the past. If you continue to be so arrogant and domineering, and all servants have left in the future, you have to wash your own laundry, cook, clean the room, think about it clearly!"
"Hmph!" Liu Yunhui said unwillingly, "Why can't you find a servant with the money?"
Zuli's tone was colder, "It can be found, but only if you have money."
Su Ze is gone, and only Su Li is left in this family with the ability to make money.
From now on, she will naturally be the leader.
Liu Yunhui obviously didn't expect this trick, and she thought that Qin Fengyun fell ill and her status could finally be improved.
Now that I heard what Zu Li said, I suddenly froze.
Zuli turned around and walked away.
Liu Yunhui, who realized it later, shouted behind her: "Su Li! I am an elder! Su Wei is your sister! You can't be so conscience-free!"
Su Wei came over when she heard the sound and saw her mother's appearance, she asked in confusion: "Mom? What's wrong?"
Liu Yunhui looked at her hatefully, and cursed with anger:
"It's all your fault for not achieving anything! Now that your father is dead, we will only be able to eat according to the expressions of people!"
Su Wei was scolded for no reason and looked angry.
"What's my business?"
***
It was late at night, and Zuli leaned against the bedside, feeling sleepy.
From yesterday's accident to now, she has hardly closed her eyes much. After crying, she interfered abnormally. In addition, she had not had a long rest and her eyes were stinging.
I don’t know if it was her illusion, but after my dad left, the house seemed extremely quiet.
It is so quiet that it makes people feel nervous.
Before going to bed, she hid a sharp knife under the pillow.
My dad left, and the mansion suddenly lost its pillars.
Today, even the servants left, leaving only three or four maids from poor families, who were barely stayed because they were thinking about increasing their wages.
From now on, she can only rely on herself.
