Old Man Zhu finally understood: "He took someone else's identity?"
"Yes, so we absolutely cannot reveal Jiaojiao's identity." Zhu Chen said, "Remember, we have nothing to do with Jiaojiao."
Zhu Chen had the final say in the family, and the remaining five people listened and nodded.
"If anyone dares to talk nonsense outside, I will pull out your tongue!"
"Mom, we got it."
"We absolutely don't talk nonsense."
"But this is Jiaojiao's territory, it's okay to say it here."
"Look at what Jiaojiao is wearing today. I have never seen such beautiful clothes. And that carriage is so gorgeous. There are so many servants following her..." Zhu Laoer's wife was full of envy.
Her eyes fell on Yulan and Haitang, and she said arrogantly: "Hey, you two come over here and serve me!"
Yulan and Haitang looked unhappy, but they still came over.
Zhu Laoer's eyes also fell on them, and he glanced at them secretly. The one with fair skin and thin waist was much better than his wife.
…
Gu Mansion.
In Gu Ying's room.
Gu Ying rubbed her forehead, feeling a headache.
One thing is not yet finished, and another comes up. It really annoys her to death.
"Miss." A maid walked in from outside. It was Yulan.
"How are they?" Gu Ying asked.
A look of disgust appeared on Yulan's face.
Those people were so disgusting, they stunk so much and really thought they were the masters. They ordered Yulan and Haitang around for a long time and even complained about the simplicity of the inn.
And that Zhu Lao Er is trying to take advantage of me...
Yulan told the story of what her family had done.
Gu Ying's face was also full of disgust.
How could I have such parents and brothers?
It will only hold you back and bring shame to yourself, and it will not help you at all.
It's just a burden!
Her brother and sister-in-law are even more selfish than each other and always take advantage of others.
"Ms. Zhu Chen is a bit smart. She said that the young lady's identity should not be exposed." Yulan said.
Gu Ying nodded.
Fortunately, she knew what she was doing, otherwise today would be over.
"Miss, what should we do next?" asked Yulan.
Gu Ying showed a pensive expression.
If possible, she really wanted to poison them to death.
However, this was obviously man-made, and her brother would definitely investigate thoroughly after seeing it.
So, she had to do things so that no one would suspect her.
"Rent them a yard in the eastern suburbs and let them live there. Give them whatever they want." Gu Ying said.
…
Marquis' Mansion.
General Fourteen reported everything that happened today.
Tangli listened carefully.
Gu Ying remained calm in the face of danger and managed to handle such a huge crisis.
However, this is also expected.
Gu Ying is the heroine after all. If she is so easy to deal with, Tang Li doesn't have to be cautious at every step.
At least now the initiative is in Tangli's hands.
The Zhu family coming to her house gave Gu Ying a headache.
Tang Li had a good impression of the Zhu family. The only one with any brains was Gu Ying's mother. And it was because of her brains that she was able to protect Gu Ying.
However, the whole family is short-sighted. Gu Ying is arrogant and ruthless. She will definitely feel that they are a burden to her. It is impossible for her to just keep them there and provide them with good food and drink.
Gu Ying will definitely find a way to solve this hidden danger, she just needs to wait.
…
The Zhu family moved into the new yard.
This yard is much larger than their farmyard and is clean and tidy. However, after seeing the grandeur of the general's mansion, they felt that this yard was a little small.
Moreover, this place is too remote, with few houses around.
"It's okay for us. It's a bit unfair for our parents to live in this yard. It's shabby and remote. Tell Jiaojiao to build us a bigger yard in the downtown area." Zhu Laoer said with some dissatisfaction.
Zhu Chen was not very satisfied either. Her daughter was about to marry the third prince, and she would then be a member of the royal family. It would be really shabby for her to live in this courtyard.
However, her daughter is the daughter of the general after all, so she has to endure it for now. Once her daughter becomes the prince's consort, everything will be easy.
She was just a peasant woman with limited knowledge. In her opinion, the prince's wife was much more noble than the general's daughter. With a more powerful status, she no longer needed the status of a general's daughter and could recognize them as one family.
"Let's just live like this for now. When Jiaojiao becomes rich, she will definitely not forget us." Zhu Chen said.
After Zhu Chen said this, others could only put away their complaints.
The family of five lived there like this. They had everything they wanted, but they were not allowed to go out.
The second son of the Zhu family and his wife were a little impatient and were eager to go out. This was the capital city, which was many times more prosperous than Hedong County. They wanted to see the world.
But with Zhu Chen's pressure on them, they didn't dare to act too violently and could only stay at home obediently.
Two days passed like this.
That night, after the family had a full meal, they went into their rooms and prepared to go to bed when the yard door was suddenly pushed open and a scream was heard.
"What happened?" Boss Zhu was the first to run out.
Then he saw a group of people wearing black clothes, masked and holding big knives in the yard.
“You…you guys…”
Before Boss Zhu could finish his words, a big knife came towards him, knocking him to the ground and leaving him breathless.
The men in black acted quickly, and with a wave of their swords, they hacked to death Zhu Lao Da's wife and Old Man Zhu.
Zhu Laoer and his wife ran towards the door desperately.
Seeing that the man in black was about to chop him with his machete, Zhu Laoer glanced at the people around him and pushed his wife out.
"Ah!" A howl of pain.
Zhu Laoer didn't dare to look back and ran forward desperately. He didn't know how long he ran until he ran into a dead end.
Zhu Laoer's face was pale. He was shaking with fear as he watched the man with a big knife getting closer and closer. There was a pool of wet liquid under Zhu Laoer's feet.
"Why...why do you want to kill us?" Zhu Laoer said with trembling teeth.
The man in black looked at him and said, "Alright, then I'll let you die knowing full well, because you're blocking Miss Ying's way. Miss Ying is the daughter of the General's Mansion, and you'll expose Miss Ying's identity!"
As the man in black spoke, he raised his knife towards Zhu Laoer.
Before the knife fell, Zhu Laoer's eyes rolled back and he fell down.
The man in black put away his knife, picked up Zhu Laoer, jumped up, and disappeared into the alley.
Shortly after they disappeared, two more men in black caught up with them.
Under the cover of night, these two men in black looked the same as the man in black just now, but if you looked closely, you would find that their clothes and swords were different.
"Where are the people?"
"One more missing..."
"Keep looking."
…
Marquis' Mansion.
Under the moonlight, Tang Li and Wei Qing stood side by side and did not sleep.
After a while, a man in black appeared in front of the two of them and took off his veil. It turned out to be Fourteen.
Tang Li looked at him: "What's wrong?"
"According to your instructions, we will keep one person alive and tell him that Gu Ying was the one who killed him and then dumped him at the gate of the Dali Temple. He has been discovered by the Dali Temple staff."
Gu Ying is really cruel. She actually attacks her closest relatives.
Even though it was expected, Tangli still wanted to sigh.
Tang Li looked at Wei Qing and smiled: "Husband, there will be a good show to watch."
