The eldest wife was indeed released after only seven or eight days of house arrest.
Without her to take charge, all the affairs of the household were in chaos, and most of the servants in the household did not listen to her orders.
During this period, Meng Tianrui stayed at home every day, but felt unsatisfactory everywhere.
Whether it was food or tea, they were never to his taste, and no one could prepare the clothes he needed to wear every time he went out.
Faced with such a situation, he had no choice but to ask her to come out and help solve these problems.
After all, only she understands her preferences and needs and can arrange everything in an orderly and appropriate manner.
His explanation to the Qing Gang also caused him a lot of losses. One of his docks allowed the Qing Gang's goods to enter and exit, which not only caused him to lose these, but most importantly, he lost face.
After the first wife came out, she was naturally not as majestic as before. Meng Tianrui took all the private money in her hands, including eight small yellow croakers and one big yellow croaker.
She was very unwilling and blamed all of this on Jiang Rongxi. The source of all this came from her.
Fortunately, now that her son's marriage to her is off, all the suffering is not in vain.
.
After Meng Tianrui finished this matter, he set his sights on Rong Xi again.
He still wanted the property in her hands, which could support him to raise a lot of soldiers, and he would not give it up.
So this time he had a long and frank talk with Meng Zimo.
"Zimo, I'm telling you all this because I hope you can understand my painstaking efforts. You know how much money it costs to support these soldiers every day. Every bullet they fire costs money. We have some businesses at home, but you should know that we are already running out of money."
Meng Tianrui took a sip of tea and continued.
"I know you have a woman you like, and I don't disagree with you being together, but the property in Jiang Rongxi's hands is enough for our Governor's Mansion to continue to survive. You should know the importance of this now that you are older."
"But this is unfair to Jiang Rongxi."
"Fair, what is fair? I raised her until she was an adult, and she never lacked food or clothing. In this war-torn era, how could she expect to live like this? Besides, if a woman like her were to take this money out and get targeted by someone, do you know what would happen?"
Meng Zimo seemed to be persuaded and walked out of Meng Tianrui's study in silence.
Rong Xi watched all this in the space interface and actually found it funny.
She thought that what she said to Meng Zimo that day would change his mind, but she didn't expect that she was just talking to a deaf person.
.
Just after breakfast that morning, Qingyu told Rong Xi that Zhou Hu had died.
"Who killed him?"
"It's the young marshal."
Qingyu didn't explain much. Rong Xi herself also thought that Wei Siye killed Zhou Hu mostly for her. After all, he had no hatred or connection with Zhou Hu.
"Where is the young marshal? Why haven't I seen him for a while?"
"I don't know about the young marshal's affairs, but he is still in Jianghai City. Qingshan sent someone to deliver the news this morning."
"Um."
.
Wei Siye, who was away from the mansion, had his eyes tightly closed and his lips were dark blue. Several military doctors standing beside him all shook their heads.
Qingshan was anxious. "What's wrong with you quack doctors? Do you know the identity of this person?"
"We really have no other options. This gentleman was shot in the abdomen and has injured his liver. I'm afraid he'll have to go to a Japanese hospital where doctors would dare to perform this surgery."
Qingshan kicked the doctor who was talking away and said, "You are looking for death."
"This... spare my life."
All the doctors that could be found in the city were called in, and the room was filled with Chinese and Western medicine doctors, but no one could help.
.
Rong Xi was still eating pastries when he suddenly received a system notification: "Rong Xi, the mission target's life is in danger."
"What! How could his life be in danger?"
The system opened Wei Siye's interface at this moment. When Rong Xi saw his current appearance, he was so scared that he almost dropped the cake on the ground.
She went out in a hurry, not even having time to put on foundation on her face, and went out to the alley with Qingyu.
Meng Zimo had been looking for an opportunity to contact her during this period, and when he saw her go out, he followed her.
System [Rong Xi, Meng Zimo followed behind.]
"Get rid of him."
Rong Xi and Qing Yu were riding in a rickshaw, so the speed was naturally not that fast. When they arrived at the mansion, the security outside was very tight.
When Qingshan heard the guard say that Qingyu was bringing people with him, he walked out with a smile on his face.
"Why is Miss Jiang here? The young marshal is not here today."
"Then I'll go in and wait for him to come back. He didn't say I can't come."
"I'm sorry, Miss Jiang, you should go back and wait. When the young marshal comes back, I'll tell him that Miss Jiang came to see him."
Qingshan still had a smile on his face, but his eyes turned colder when he saw Qingyu, as if asking why he brought her here.
Rong Xi knew from the first time he came here that the place was heavily guarded. If he wanted to break in, he would probably be shot to pieces as soon as he entered the gate.
But if I just give the health-enhancing pills to him directly, what if he doesn't dare to let Wei Siye take them? Then it would be a waste of money.
But from the interface, it seems that Wei Siye’s condition is not very good, and I’m afraid that if I delay any further, he will really die.
"Qingshan, I know what happened to your young commander, and I have a way to save him."
Qingshan no longer had the smile on his face, and his hand was on the gun handle behind him.
"Miss Jiang, you're joking. My young marshal is fine."
"I have medicine. If you had been any later, I'm afraid even if we sent him to a big hospital, we wouldn't be able to save him."
Qingshan was in a dilemma. He didn't know how this woman got the news that the young marshal was in trouble. If this news got out, something bad might happen.
But if we let this woman in, and if she deliberately wants to harm the young marshal, given the young marshal's current situation, the situation may not be optimistic.
Seeing that his brother was still struggling, Qingyu took Rong Xi inside.
Qingshan couldn't stop her in time, so he could only follow her with the gun loaded in his hand. If this woman dared to play tricks, he would definitely kill her.
Rong Xi came to Wei Siye's bedside and looked at the man who always acted like a rogue in front of him, now dying. He couldn't describe the feeling in his heart.
She took out a fitness pill and was about to feed it to Wei Siye, but was stopped by Qingshan.
"Miss Jiang, what kind of medicine is this?"
"I won't harm him, don't worry, I'll ask him to find someone for me."
Qingshan knew all of this, and finally decided to take a gamble. At worst, he would kill the woman to avenge the young marshal.
The person who took the fitness pill finally regained some vitality. Rong Xi examined him using the medical system and found that the position of the bullet was indeed somewhat dangerous.
After communicating with several Western doctors, the bullet was removed from Wei Siye's abdomen, who had finally recovered a little.
Wei Siye was in a coma for two days and one night, and only woke up once. It was only after Rong Xi fed him another recovery pill that he recovered.
