Chapter 1284: We Will Investigate Thoroughly
I can't stay in Yangzhou City anymore. It would be a joke if I stayed here.
He sold everything he had and moved his family to Changshu, where he bought more than a thousand acres of fertile land, built a medium-sized house, and became a country landlord with a reluctant attitude.
Although they could still have enough food and clothing, it was still beyond the reach of others compared to the small families in the countryside. However, for Zhao Mu and the Zhao family, going from being the richest man in Yangzhou, a famous city in the south of the Yangtze River, where there was decadence and debauchery, to being a local rich man in the countryside, only they themselves knew how this psychological gap felt.
The Zhao family kept a low profile when they left Yangzhou City, but Zhao Shu still knew about it.
Zhao Shu deliberately waited for them twenty miles outside the city.
Being blocked, the Zhao family members all looked slightly unhappy.
Qin was particularly angry and sad. She had nothing now. All the huge fortune that belonged to her son was taken away by Zhao Shu!
Even she herself had fallen out of favor with the master, and she wore coarse cloth clothes. There was no longer any dazzling and exquisite jewelry in her hair, only two dull and simple silver hairpins.
Her makeup was no longer as delicate as before, her skin was dull and lifeless, and she looked gray.
It was as if he had aged ten years in an instant.
She was extremely sad and angry, but she didn't even dare to complain openly. The master scolded her and said that if she hadn't given birth to two sons, he would have kicked her out long ago!
This made her so sad!
She didn't expect that she would be reduced to obscurity after only a few years of glory.
As soon as she saw Zhao Shu, she couldn't help but scream: "What are you doing here!"
Zhao Mu's eyes couldn't help but shine: "You"
Zhao Shu smiled and said, "Master Zhao, please don't misunderstand me. I'm not so kind as to send you off. I have something to ask you, so I came here to take a look at the excitement."
As soon as these words came out, Zhao Mu's face froze.
Zhao Zhai, Zhao Ye, Qin and others were all angry.
Zhao Ye would have been fine, as he was a sinister and scheming man, but Zhao Zhai actually just gave Zhao Shu a quick glare without getting angry or cursing, which surprised Zhao Shu.
He sneered in his heart, it turned out that this guy didn't really have a bad temper, he was just a coward who was emboldened by money.
Now that the Zhao family has been defeated, he can no longer shake his head.
Zhao Shu was even more contemptuous. With the two brothers in the Zhao family, it would be impossible for them to make a comeback.
Zhao Shu walked slowly towards the simple carriage Qin was riding in, lifted the curtain, and asked coldly, "Did my mother really die in an accident?"
Qin's expression changed slightly. "What does it have to do with me? How should I know!"
Zhao Shu sneered: "Some things cannot be tolerated by thinking too much. The more you think about them, the more problems there are. It's best if this matter has nothing to do with you, otherwise, I will never let you go! I will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly, at all costs!"
Qin was so frightened that her heart trembled and her palms were cold, but she endured it. She subconsciously straightened her waist, snorted softly, and turned her head away.
Zhao Shu sneered, never looked at the Zhao family again, and turned away.
Zhao Mu glanced at the carriage that Qin was riding in, which was separated by a curtain, but didn't say anything.
Zhao Zhai, Zhao Ye and others naturally also heard what Zhao Shu said. Zhao Zhai angrily muttered a few words such as "This is too much!" He felt that Zhao Shu was simply going too far. How could his mother have the courage to do such a thing?
Zhao Ye was a little upset and worried.
