【Chapter 004】Killing at the Door

Nangong Suhao frowned: "Auntie Lu, which Ye family are you talking about?"

Aunt Lu said, "It's the Ye family, the richest family in Guyuan County."

"If you ask me, Xiaoyu is the lucky kid. He belongs to the famous Ye family, which is something others can't even ask for."

"It is said that fools have good fortune. Xiao Yu has become the son-in-law of the Ye family. He will be able to eat delicious food and drink spicy drinks every day. His life will definitely not be better than that of his own home."

Think about it, since Nangong Yang disappeared, the little fool has become as thin as a bamboo pole from a fat man weighing about 300 pounds. It can be seen that Nangong Shanren does not know how to raise children, and most importantly, he cannot keep his money.

Aunt Lu sincerely thought that since a wealthy family like the Ye family had accepted the little fool as their son-in-law, they would definitely not lack food for him. Not to mention delicacies from land and sea, at least there is meat for every meal.

Aunt Lu was so excited that she didn't notice Nangong Suhao's expression at all, and she was still talking non-stop.

"Now that Xiaoyu has a place to go, you can think about your own affairs next, Nangong Shanren. Without Xiaoyu as a burden, I believe there are many girls willing to marry you."

"If you have a girl you like, I can help you find a matchmaker. If you don't have a girl you like, I can introduce you to one."

As she was talking, Aunt Lu suddenly felt the temperature around her drop by several degrees. When she looked up, she saw Nangong Suhao with a gloomy face. That handsome face was no longer as gentle as usual, but rather a little scary.

Aunt Lu was frightened.

"Well... I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

After saying this, Aunt Lu fled into the Zhu Mansion.

Nangong Suhao's face was gloomy. The Ye family had asked a matchmaker to discuss this matter three days ago. He rejected the matchmaker without hesitation at that time, but he didn't expect that they would start with Xiao Yu.

He also asked Xiao Yu to give him a knockout drug.

Ye Mansion! Ye family!

Good, very good! ! !

Nangong Suhao clenched his fists until they crackled, then turned back home and fetched a stick as thick as his arm. Then he walked out of Nangong Mansion with anger in his heart.

Just at this moment, a little beggar about eight or nine years old came running from a distance. As he ran, he shouted, "Nangong Shanren, Nangong Shanren, something happened to your brother."

Nangong Suhao frowned and looked at the little beggar.

When the little beggar came closer, he heard the little beggar say, "Mr. Nangong, I heard from the people in the Ye Mansion that your brother was killed by the eldest young master of the Ye family."

Nangong Suhao felt a bang in his head, and there was only one voice in his head: Xiaoyu is dead, Xiaoyu is dead...

Seeing Nangong Suhao standing still, the little beggar felt that his reaction did not match the reaction expected by the person who asked him to do the thing, so he quickly repeated it again.

"Mr. Nangong, the maids in the Ye Mansion said that your brother was killed by the eldest young master of the Ye family."

Coming back to his senses, Nangong Suhao turned around and went back home, throwing the stick on the ground. After searching the house for a while, he finally took a big knife and left the house.

This time, he was not filled with anger, but murderous intent.

Staring at Nangong Suhao's murderous back, the little beggar felt that his mission was accomplished. When Nangong Suhao walked out of the alley, he could just hear the discussions in the streets.

Tossing the silver in his hand, the little beggar prepared to buy two hot buns to reward himself.

On the street.

Many people who knew Nangong Suhao wanted to greet him and ask him about his brother. As a result, I saw that he had a cold face and a knife in his hand.

It was obvious that he was going to kill someone.

Oh, no need to ask.

The rumors must be true. Mr. Nangong’s idiot brother was really killed by the eldest young master of the Ye family.

It seems that Mr. Nangong is going to the Ye Mansion to seek revenge.

Many people followed Nangong Suhao, intending to watch the fun.

Everyone in Guyuan County knew that the Ye family was wealthy, but no one knew how wealthy they were.

There are two stone lions on each side of the stone steps in front of the gate of the Ye Mansion. There is a red lantern hanging on each side of the plaque of the mansion, with a "囍" character written on it.

The door was closed.

When Nangong Suhao arrived at the gate of Ye Mansion, he saw two big red lanterns at the gate and felt that they were very dazzling. He took a few steps forward, swung his sword, and chopped down the two red lanterns to the ground with two whooshes.

The crowd watching the excitement took two steps back. They just want to watch the fun and don't want to be hurt by mistake.

The servant inside heard the noise and opened the door. He was frightened to see Nangong Suhao holding a big knife, looking like he was going to kill someone, and quickly closed the door again.

There was only a loud bang.

"Butler Du, something bad has happened..."

Butler Du was asking the servants to take down the red silk in the mansion when he heard someone say that he was in trouble. He really felt that he was going to be in trouble.

The servant ran to Butler Du, panting and saying, "Butler Du, silly... My son-in-law's eldest brother came to kill us with a knife."

Butler Du was confused. What the hell was this?

Seeing that Steward Du didn't respond, the servant waved his hand in front of him and said, "Standard Du?"

Butler Du came to his senses and asked: "Are you sure you are coming to kill me, not to visit me?"

The servant asked, "What kind of guest would come to visit with a big knife and chop the two lanterns at the gate to the ground?"

Butler Du took a deep breath. There were so many troubles, one after another, never ending. After looking around, he casually pointed at a servant.

"Go and invite the uncle to the main hall."

"yes."

Steward Du said to the servant, "Go to the gate of the mansion."

Not long after, the door of Ye Mansion opened again.

Butler Du immediately saw a tall figure standing at the door with a big knife in his right hand - Nangong Suhao. Behind him was a group of onlookers.

"I'm looking for the master of the Ye Mansion."

Nangong Suhao knew that every wrong has its perpetrator, and the two people in front of him were just servants of the Ye Mansion. The person who allowed his brother to marry into the family was the culprit who killed his brother.

"Come in first."

Butler Du made way and gestured for invitation.

"Mr. Nangong, please don't go in. What if the Ye family kills people to silence them?"

The person who said this was a man with a pointed face and monkey cheeks. He was not concerned about Nangong Suhao's life or death. He was worried that if Nangong Suhao died, he would lose an income.

Steward Du was speechless and said, "Why would the Ye family kill someone to silence him?"

Someone kindly explained: "You, the Ye family, killed Nangong Shanren's brother. You are afraid that he will report it to the police, so you naturally want to kill him to silence him."

Steward Du narrowed his eyes, walked out of the gate of the Ye Mansion, and looked at the people at the bottom of the stairs: "Who told you that Young Master Nangong's brother is dead?"

Everyone looked at me and I looked at you.

During the riot, the news suddenly spread among the crowd, and they really didn't know who said it.

Someone responded: “That’s what everyone says.”

Butler Du gritted his teeth, what a great chain of schemes.

He had just interrogated the maid who served food to Nangong Chenyu last night. I learned from the two maids that Madam Ye gave them a packet of medicine yesterday and asked them to put the medicine in Nangong Chenyu's food.

The two maids did as they were told.

Later, when dealing with the uneaten food of Nangong Chenyu, the two maids saw with their own eyes a mouse stealing the food, and not long after, the mouse died.

Butler Du didn’t know why Nangong Chenyu was fine after eating the medicated food, but it was a good thing that Nangong Chenyu didn’t die.

Now there are such rumors outside again, which are obviously arranged by the second room long ago.

The second wife's heart is worthy of death.

Butler Du could imagine that if Nangong Chenyu really died, Old Madam Ye would hold on to the excuse that Nangong Chenyu was killed by the eldest young master. For the sake of the eldest master, he would definitely take the initiative to admit that he was the one who killed the person.

Look at the aggressive Young Master Nangong.

The ending might be that he was hacked to death by Young Master Nangong, then Young Master Nangong was imprisoned, and the Ye Mansion fell into the hands of the second branch.

Thinking of this, Butler Du broke out in a cold sweat on his back.

The second wife is very scheming, and Old Madam Ye is very calculating.

Cursing the Second House in his heart, Housekeeper Du smiled on the surface: "Everyone, don't believe the rumors. Young Master Nangong's brother, my son-in-law, is not dead. He is well in the Ye Mansion."

Everyone looked at each other.

The little fool is not dead!

Who caused such a misunderstanding and made fun of so many people?

At this time, Nangong Suhao looked at the crowd, but the little beggar who informed him of the incident was not among them. He turned to look at Butler Du and confirmed with him.

"Is my brother really okay?"

"Sir, you are fine." Steward Du once again made a gesture of invitation: "Please come in. I have sent someone to invite Sir to the main hall to wait for you."

Turning around, Butler Du said to the crowd that had come to watch the fun, "My son-in-law is fine. I would like to thank you all for caring about my son-in-law. Please go back!"

Everyone: “…” They just came to watch the fun.

Seeing that there was nothing exciting to watch, everyone left.

Nangong Suhao walked in with a knife in hand.

But after entering the door, he realized that it was impolite to hold a knife in his hand. So he casually put the knife into the gatekeeper's hand.

The servant who thought Nangong Suhao was going to use a knife: "..."

“Please clean up the entrance to the mansion.” After saying this, Butler Du led Nangong Suhao towards the main hall of the Ye Mansion.

When he arrived at the main hall, Butler Du did not see Nangong Chenyu, but only saw the servant who had delivered the message earlier.

"Where's the uncle?"

"My uncle was sleeping. I called him, but he didn't wake up."

Butler Du waved his hand and signaled the servant to go down. He looked at Nangong Suhao and said in embarrassment: "Young Master Nangong, look, this..."

Nangong Suhao was worried when he didn't see anyone: "Can I go to where my brother lives to see?"

"Okay, come with me."

The two of them walked one after the other towards the courtyard where Nangong Chenyu lived.

After seeing that Nangong Chenyu was indeed sleeping and safe and sound, Nangong Suhao finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Butler Du, I want to meet the person in charge of the Ye Mansion."

"You want to talk about my son-in-law marrying into the family, right?"

Nangong Chenyu nodded.

Steward Du sighed, "Ever since the head of the family fell into a coma, the eldest young master has been in charge of the Ye Mansion. But yesterday, the eldest young master vomited blood and fell into a coma as soon as he came back, and he hasn't woken up yet."

Butler Du wanted Nangong Suhao to take Nangong Chenyu back, but he was only the butler of the Ye Mansion. He can make decisions on small matters, but he cannot make decisions on big matters like this.
