Chapter 125 Collapse
Mrs. Wu was very excited at the thought of meeting her son soon.
She has thought a lot in the past two days. Jingshu is still young and she is just ignorant. After they recognize Zhiyan, let Zhiyan persuade her a few words, and she will definitely change her mind.
It’s not the agreed time yet.
She and Qin Kaiji arrived at Tianranju early.
The wounds on Wu's face have healed, but Qin Kaiji is in a miserable state. He has a bald head and wears a veil for fear of embarrassment. Large areas of burns on his body have not healed yet, which makes him unable to even sit.
He has had a hard time these past few days.
He stood by the window with a gloomy face and said nothing.
Today, he naturally came for Zhiyan, and the most important thing was that he wanted to ask Zhixu in person.
Mrs. Wu is just a woman, what does she know?
In the blink of an eye, it was the agreed time.
Chen Zhiyan arrived as promised.
Seeing him coming, Wu's heart finally settled down, knowing that Zhixu had not lied to her.
"Zhi Yan, I heard that you were bitten by a poisonous snake. Has the poison been removed now?" Mrs. Wu looked at him carefully with a concerned look on her face.
Shen Zhiyan said nothing. If it weren't for his elder brother's face, he wouldn't have come at all.
Qin Kaiji couldn't help but glared at him, "Is this how you treat your elders?"
"What elders? Where do these elders come from?" Shen Zhiyan said with disdain.
At this moment, Xie Changning was at Ji Yaxuan opposite, looking at them from afar. Seeing the father and son arguing, she couldn't help but smile.
There are some things she must see with her own eyes.
That would be more satisfying, wouldn't it?
"Why hasn't Zhixu come yet? Maybe something happened on the way!" Seeing that Shen Zhixu was still not coming, Wu was worried.
Qin Kaiji also looked outside frequently.
However, he did not see that Shen Zhixu was in the alley not far away. He had a sneer on his face and stared at Tianranju meaningfully.
They came as expected.
Today is the day they die.
Qin Kaiji and Wu naturally deserved to die.
But who made my second brother know about it?
So, he deserves to die too.
After waiting for a while, Wu couldn't sit still any longer. "Master, Zhixu hasn't come yet. I don't know why I'm so anxious. Why don't we send someone to check it out?"
Shen Zhiyan looked unhappy. What's wrong with my brother?
It was clearly he who invited them here, but he himself was late.
"Why are you in such a hurry? Wait a little longer, maybe he is already on his way." Qin Kaiji was also a little unhappy. He didn't even have the most basic concept of time. Even so, he still wanted to accomplish something great?
I don’t know how Xie Changning raised his children?
The way they were raised, none of them were decent.
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sudden sound of gongs and drums outside.
A few people looked up and saw that not far from Tianranju, there was a circus troupe, beating drums and gongs, which was very lively.
They were breathing fire and performing stone-breaking moves with their chests, and soon attracted a large crowd of people.
The onlookers cheered.
That was not all. After the performance of breaking the stone with the chest, the circus members actually took out a money tree, saying that silver would fall out if it was shaken.
At first, no one believed it.
Until two people who didn't believe in evil came forward and shook it themselves, and more than ten taels of silver fell down.
"Wow! I never thought this money tree is real!!!" There was an uproar at the scene, and the atmosphere instantly reached a climax.
This attracted people from the nearby restaurants and teahouses to come out in droves and run out to watch the fun.
Tianranju was so close that even the shopkeeper and the waiter stood at the door, standing on tiptoe, their necks stretched out, trying hard to look towards the acrobatic troupe.
To be honest, this money tree thing is too new.
Who has seen this?
The most important thing is that whoever shakes down the silver owns it.
To be honest, they all wanted to run over and shake it. What's the difference between this and silver falling from the sky?
"Oh! Madam, I can't believe that there is such a miracle in this world. How did they do it? Even this old servant wants to shake it!" Mother Du also felt it was very new. She had lived to such an old age, but this was the first time she had seen it.
Xie Changning glanced at it indifferently. Yes, it was really strange. What was even stranger was that all the money that fell was hers. Xie Nan must have worked so hard, secretly giving away money all the time.
But all the guests of Tianranju flocked in.
She instantly felt that the money was well spent.
Tianranju's kitchen is located in the backyard. Now, Qin Kaiji and his friends are probably the only ones left in Tianranju.
Even Shen Zhixu couldn't help but glance towards the acrobatic troupe, but he didn't take it to heart.
Even Mrs. Wu was very curious. She stretched her neck to look outside several times. Even her hands were itching to shake the money tree, but when she thought that Zhixu would be here soon, she quickly suppressed the idea.
Qin Kaiji just glanced at him lightly.
Chen Zhiyan didn't want to wait any longer. He was afraid that others would see him, Qin Kaiji and Wu together.
"I originally came here today just to see my elder brother. Since my elder brother hasn't come yet, I'll take my leave first." He stood up and was about to leave.
Wu quickly stopped him, "Zhi Yan, don't leave so quickly. Wait a little longer. I promise your elder brother will be here soon. Don't you want to hear what your elder brother has to say?"
Shen Zhiyan was not moved at all. He walked straight past Wu and left.
Seeing this, Qin Kaiji said, "What if I tell you that I have a way to help you inherit the title of Marquis in the shortest possible time?"
Hearing this, Shen Zhiyan paused, and subconsciously turned his head to look at Qin Kaiji, "What's the solution?"
Qin Kaiji hasn't spoken yet.
He just felt that his whole body seemed to shake a little, and he thought it was his illusion, so he didn't take it to heart and was still waiting for Qin Kaiji to speak.
Unexpectedly, Qin Kaiji also felt it. At this moment, the teacup on the table shook a little, and his face suddenly changed, "Not good..."
The next moment.
There was a loud bang and the entire Tianranju collapsed instantly.
