Chapter 88 Son, I am your mother (4)
When the old lady woke up and saw her yard burned to ashes, she felt a black screen in front of her eyes and almost fainted.
"My yard, my yard!"
The old lady was heartbroken. Thinking of the treasures that were burned to ashes, she felt as if someone had cut off a piece of her flesh.
She sat on the ground and cried so hard that she fainted.
In the following days, a fire would break out somewhere in the mansion every two days. The fire was neither too big nor too small, and could be put out just right.
But when the yard catches fire, all the gold, silver and jewelry inside will disappear.
The old lady did suspect Sui Shu, but Sui Shu was bedridden and didn't look like someone who could set fire to the Marquis's mansion without anyone noticing.
At the same time, gossip about the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery's Mansion began to spread among the people.
The rumor reached the old lady's ears, and she was so angry that she almost couldn't help but go looking for trouble with Sui Shu.
Fortunately, Liu Zhangyu stopped him, otherwise he would have suffered again.
After tossing and turning for several days and nights, the old lady fainted.
After the court doctor finished taking the patient's pulse, his heart skipped a beat.
The old lady had a stroke, became paralyzed, and could no longer speak.
When Sui Shu learned the news, she was sleeping in the yard basking in the sun.
All the masters who could hold on to the Marquis of Zhongyong's Mansion were dead or sick, and Liu Zhangyu and Liu Zhanglang were outsiders, so the power to manage the mansion fell into the hands of Sui Shu.
Sui Shu was unable to shoulder the responsibility of managing the Marquis' Mansion, so he simply found a substitute.
[Tiezhu, I'll leave the Marquis' Mansion to you?]
Xiao Tiezhu was confused: [Host, I don't quite understand what you mean.]
Sui Shu chuckled and stuffed the iron pillars into the substitute's body.
The substitute's body is exactly the same as the original owner's, even down to a cinnabar mole on the collarbone.
Tiezhu opened his eyes, moved his hands and feet, and was extremely excited: "Hahahaha... I'm a human again, oh ho ho..."
Sui Shu pressed Tiezhu down on the stool and said, "Now the Marquis' Mansion is in my hands. I'm going to get the male lead, but I still need you to hold the mansion accountable."
Tiezhu was extremely excited to participate in the mission again. After listening to Sui Shu's words, he patted his chest confidently and said, "Don't worry, host. Just go ahead. I, Tiezhu, will complete the mission."
Sui Shu's mouth twitched, but he still said, "If you need anything, be sure to call me. Don't let the Heavenly Dao find out like last time and give you another beating."
Tiezhu: “…”
What I'm saying is, could the host please stop bringing up irrelevant issues?

On that day, Sui Shu melted the gold and silver jewelry he had taken from the old lady and Liu Zhangyu into gold bars and small change, put them together with their private money in his arms, and left the capital overnight.
Now the plot has developed to the point where He Xiao has recovered his memory but dared not tell Bai Weiyun and has been lying to her.
He never thought about how his wife, who was far away in the capital, was sad and suffered a lot of grievances at home.
Sui Shu teleported to the county town where He Xiao was located, bought a house, a dozen maids, and more than twenty servants.
Immediately afterwards, Sui Shu began to look for a handsome man, about 25 years old, who had been injured and had lost his memory.
Sui Shu offered a reward of one hundred taels, and soon someone from the same village as Bai Weiyun found Sui Shu and provided information about He Xiao and Bai Weiyun.
How could He Xiao be so shameless? A man in his thirties, pretending to be twenty-five.
Sui Shu did not take care of the original owner's body. Her face looked old and people would believe she was in her forties.
The next day, Sui Shu came to Baijia Village in a carriage with ten strong and muscular servants, dressed in pearls and brocade clothes.
The group asked along the way and finally found Bai Weiyun's home.
Sui Shu was helped out of the car and saw He Xiao inside the door, holding a child of four or five years old and playing under a tree.
The idea that men farm and women weave is a joke. He Xiao has never gone out to work. All his money was stolen by the old rat at home.
Sui Shu took out a handkerchief soaked in chili water, rushed in with a cry, and slammed into He Xiao's arms, hugging his head: "Son, my son!"
He Xiao was confused, but then he reacted and pushed Sui Shu away: "Who are you? You must have recognized the wrong person..."
When He Xiao saw Sui Shu's haggard face, his expression froze for a moment.
Sui Shu wiped his tears, rushed forward, and slapped He Xiao hard: "You damn unfilial son, why don't you go home?"
He Xiao held He Bai in his arms and stepped back repeatedly. He subconsciously wanted to call the original owner's name, but changed his mind and said, "Xiang... I think this lady has recognized the wrong person. I have a brain injury and don't remember you."
He stared at Sui Shu warily, with mixed feelings.
What was Li Xiangyun doing here? Did her mother accidentally let her know?
But there was no place for her in his heart anymore, only Wei'er remained, and he was destined to let her down.
Forget it, let her continue to be the lady of her uncle's house. He will continue to pretend to have amnesia and can only let Wei'er down.
At this moment, a voice as clear as a spring came from outside the door: "Husband, what happened?"
Sui Shu turned around and saw a beautiful young woman with a delicate face and a peach-pink dress walking towards him. This was Bai Weiyun.
He Xiao panicked when he saw Bai Weiyun suddenly come back. He was hesitating about how to trick her. He Bai in his arms immediately broke free and threw himself into Bai Weiyun's arms: "Mom, that old woman said that Dad is her son."
Bai Weiyun's expression changed and she looked at Sui Shu.
The woman in front of him was dressed in brocade clothes and had a precious pearl hairpin on her head. She was covered in jewels and was obviously the wife of a wealthy family.
Could it be that her bet was right, and she really picked up a husband of extraordinary status!
Bai Weiyun had no doubt about Sui Shu's age. After all, people in ancient times got married and had children early.
Sui Shu looked at Bai Weiyun with the eyes of a commodity, frowning: "Who are you to Xiao'er?"
Bai Weiyun was stunned for a moment. He Xiao quickly stood in front of Bai Weiyun and shouted at Sui Shu, "I already said I don't know you. This is my wife and child. Get out!"
Sui Shu raised his hand and slapped He Xiao twice, so fast that He Xiao didn't even react. "You unfilial son, how dare you disrespect your mother! How can you be worthy of your father, how can you be worthy of your ancestors? Why did I give birth to a thing like you?"
He Xiao felt very aggrieved. He really wanted to kick the woman out on the spot, but he didn't dare to reveal the fact that he had recovered his memory.
Seeing her husband being beaten, Bai Weiyun immediately jumped out: "Madam, my husband has lost his memory, so he doesn't remember you. What evidence do you have to prove that my husband is your son?"
