Chapter 119 Playing tricks
"Master!"
Aunt Sun should be in the house recuperating after giving birth and cannot be exposed to the wind. Yet, she is wearing a headband on her head and is standing in the yard with everyone else.
As soon as he saw Uncle Yin, he rushed over.
That look made Aunt Qin, who was standing on the other side, roll her eyes several times.
But perhaps the current situation was indeed not right, and Aunt Qin didn't say anything. She turned her head away with a pout, leaving Aunt Sun crying in the arms of the master.
Perhaps Master Yin really liked Aunt Sun. Seeing her tears, he showed a look of heartache. "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. I'm here, aren't I?"
"You're still in confinement after childbirth, how come you ran out?"
Aunt Sun cried so hard that she couldn't speak for a moment. She shook her head repeatedly and spoke through sobs for a long time. "Master, please go and see our son. He...he died unjustly!"
There was no need for anyone to say anything. Uncle Yin took a few steps forward, and the others naturally made way. A large piece of freshly formed meat was lying there, prickly and emitting a foul odor.
Uncle Yin's expression changed. "Didn't I already have someone take care of it? Who on earth is playing tricks here?"
Upon hearing this, the servant in charge of handling the piece of meat fell to his knees and said, "Master, please understand!"
"This... Although I was responsible for handling this, several people were watching at the time. I watched it burn to charcoal with my own eyes before I left. I absolutely dared not make any mistakes!"
As soon as the servant finished speaking, several people stood up to testify.
They don't even dare to lie.
Uncle Yin's expression darkened, but he couldn't let the rumors of ghosts and gods spread. He suppressed his uneasiness and ordered, "I guess someone doesn't like our family, so they came up with this insidious method to scare people and throw them off balance."
"Such a crude trick, I, Yin, will never believe it in the slightest!"
"Housekeeper, take the things out and burn them. Tell the guards to be alert and make sure nothing goes wrong again!"
The Yin family's housekeeper had been with the old master since he was young. He was already quite old, and Grandpa Yin called him several times before he responded weakly twice.
Obviously, he was a little scared.
Regardless of whether others believed what the master said or not, the matter had to be handled this way. Seeing that the matter was about to end like this, Aunt Sun grabbed the master's sleeve and cried even harder than before, "Master, our child is gone just like that, don't you want to investigate at all?"
"That's a boy!"
While speaking, Aunt Sun gave Old Chang a fierce look.
But this time, Master Yin didn't feel the same pity for her as before. He flicked his sleeves and almost threw Aunt Sun to the ground. "Then tell me, what else do you want? What else do you want?!"
"Do you want my son to give his life to you?"
Aunt Sun was so frightened that she dared not speak a word and could only watch as Master Yin angrily left with a wave of his sleeves.
Shi Yu gave him a look and the two of them quickly followed.
He stopped the person halfway.
"Dad, the housekeeper won't tell Grandpa about this, right?" Old Chang walked side by side with Uncle Yin with a worried look on his face. "Our first branch is small, and I'm an outsider, so I can't make Grandpa happy as well as the ones in the second and third branches."
"If this matter is brought to Grandfather's attention again, will he be so angry that he will give all the family property to the second wife?"
Uncle Yin may not care about other things, but this matter is his weak spot, and he cannot touch it at all.
If it weren't for this family business, he wouldn't value his son, Master Xiaoliu, so much.
"What nonsense!" Uncle Yin stared at Lao Chang with a look of disappointment. "You, you, since you know that our eldest branch has few children, still caused this kind of trouble for me, can you please give me some peace of mind?"
"Master, actually, this might not be a bad thing."
It was not until now that Uncle Yin noticed Shi Yu following behind Old Chang.
The moment he looked at her, his eyes lit up and he felt strange.
He had clearly seen this girl last night, but why didn't he notice then that she actually had such a pretty face? If he had known, he wouldn't have sent her to his son's room...
A fleeting thought flashed through his mind, and Uncle Yin coughed lightly and asked, "What do you mean by that?"
"My son's death, how can it be a good thing?"
Shi Yu stepped forward and bowed, "Don't be anxious, sir. Why don't you listen to me finish what I have to say?"
"Dad, Huazhi's ancestors knew some powerful techniques of incantation. If we could push the matter of the baby in Auntie's belly onto the second wife's family, what do you think Grandfather would think?"
Uncle Yin's first reaction was to shake his head. "That won't do. What your grandfather hates most is..."
Before he could finish his words, Uncle Yin stopped talking on his own.
The old man was forced to retire because he was framed by the magic of incantation. He used all his strength to keep only a small part of his fortune, so naturally he hated these things.
But it's just because of disgust.
If the old man thinks that all this is the work of the second wife, then the second wife will probably have no share in this family business!
Besides...
Uncle Yin looked Shi Yu up and down and said, "You look so young, but do you really have this ability?"
"You don't have to believe me, just give me a chance and wait and see the result." Shi Yu raised his chin slightly, looking as if he was making a promise.
Of course she knew that if something really happened, Uncle Yin would definitely blame everything on her.
But she is not a squid, and such a shabby place will not kill her.
What she lacks now is an opportunity to contact the old man in a fair and legitimate way.
"Success or failure depends on today."
In Lao Chang's yard, Shi Yu was lying on the branch of a big tree, holding a jar of wine in his hand.
Purely handmade locust flower wine can no longer be found. If Shi Yu hadn't come to this place, it would have been difficult for him to drink it.
Lao Chang was standing under the tree. "Master, is this really feasible?"
"Have you found a way to seal it?"
Shi Yu laughed, "What do you think?"
Old Chang didn't ask any further. As soon as he saw Shi Yu like this, he already knew what was going on. That night was particularly lively, and the crying of children echoed throughout the Yin family.
Regardless of whether the housekeeper complained or not, the matter could no longer be concealed from the old master.
Before daybreak, Shi Yu and Lao Chang were pushed in front of the old man. Grandpa Yin lived up to everyone's expectations and put the blame on Shi Yu as soon as he saw him.
"Dad! It's her! It's her! This woman is proficient in the art of incantation. She must be playing tricks on our family!"
The old man had a gloomy face, but when he saw Shi Yu, his face froze, "You...you are...how is it possible!"
