Chapter 168 Cannon Fodder
Zhulan thought that Shi Qing was using Wang Ru, but Wang Ru was too stupid. Shi Qing didn't dare to keep her around for fear that Teammate Pig would betray him. As for Wang Ru, Wang Ru had her own plans and she was still thinking about the male lead!
Zhou Wangshi stayed until dinner time and had to go home before leaving.
Zhu Lanxian also became curious and wanted to know what Wang Ru would do next.
When Zhulan was about to go to bed at night, she knew what Wang Ru had done. Just as she was about to fall asleep, she heard shrill screams that were particularly clear in the quiet night. The cries for help were louder than the last, and Zhulan was startled in her dazed state. She opened her eyes suddenly and sweat broke out on her back in shock. The sweat wet her hair and her heart was pounding.
Zhou Shuren was also startled. He calmed down after a short sleep. His hand touched Zhulan's sweat. Zhou Shuren looked gloomy and angry at Wang Ru. He coaxed Zhulan gently, "It's okay, it's okay, don't be afraid, touch the fur, it won't scare you, touch the ears for a while, come back to your senses, come back to your senses."
Zhulan was just recovering from her shock, but when she heard this she burst out laughing, "You can also call back ghosts?"
These were the words her grandmother often said when she was a child and she was scared.
Zhou Shuren saw that Zhulan was much better, so he called her twice more before replying, "The orphanage can take care of itself. If you get scared, you can call out by yourself. Don't underestimate her. It's actually quite useful."
Zhulan's sweat subsided and she felt much better. She squinted her eyes and reached out to touch Zhou Shuren's head. "Touching his fur won't scare him. Touching his ears will scare him for a while. Shuren is back, back, don't be afraid."
Zhou Shuren lowered his head. In the dark room, he seemed to see Zhulan's bright eyes. This was the first time someone called his soul. He lowered his head in the direction of her breathing and kissed her lips that were suppressing her laughter.
Unfortunately, the good atmosphere did not continue. People outside were shouting that someone had been murdered, dogs were barking, and neighbors were getting up. It was a mess. Even Boss Zhou got up and stood by the window, shouting, "Dad, do you want to check it out?"
Zhou Shuren's face was so dark that it looked like ink. His tone was particularly aggressive, "What the hell are you looking at? Go back to sleep."
Zhou Lao Er, "......"
Thanks again for not being the boss!
Boss Zhou, "......."
Brother, don't think that there isn't much moonlight and I can't see your face clearly. It's too obvious and you will lose your brother!
Zhou Shuren's voice was quite loud, and the oil lamps in Chang Lian, Chang Zhi and others' rooms went out instantly!
Boss Zhou covered his chest with his hands. Is it okay for him to not be the boss?
Zhulan waited until the footsteps of her two sons faded away before she laughed out loud. It was the first time she heard Zhou Shuren scold someone. Well, it was particularly powerful!
Anyway, neither of them thought about going over to check out what was going on. They knew clearly that Wang Ru was making trouble just for the sake of inheritance!
Zhulan thought about it carefully and guessed the general idea, "Wang Ru has become smarter. She will inherit the family tomorrow."
Zhou Shuren snorted coldly. He was still weak now, and Wang Ru was the life-saving talisman that Shi Qing was eyeing. He didn't have the strength yet, otherwise he would have thought of a way to get rid of Wang Ru long ago. It was disgusting just to see him!
Zhou Shuren waited until Zhulan stopped sweating, then hugged her and said, "Go to sleep!"
Zhulan was frightened and startled, but when the noise outside died down, she soon felt sleepy and fell asleep in a short while.
Zhou Shuren didn't sleep, but he was thinking about the possibility of moving early. No matter how the plan changed, he couldn't leave Zhoujia Village for the time being, because the county magistrate had become the new county magistrate. He had taken office immediately after the appointment. The county magistrate had been busy some time ago, and now that the dust had settled, it was time for him to go to the village in person to congratulate him. His roots were in Zhoujia Village, the county magistrate was very important, and the county magistrate was already good, and he was very happy to make friends with him.
Besides, the county magistrate is a mentor and can be of great help to him. He does not have a famous teacher like Wu Ming, so he can only look for one on his own.
Zhou Shuren sighed, he couldn't leave. However, no matter how much Wang Ru acted, he couldn't get rid of her, so he gave her a big gift, which made Wang Ru stay with him obediently!
After breakfast in the morning, Li could not suppress her curiosity. If her father-in-law had not been angry yesterday, she would have gone out to see the excitement. Seeing that her mother did not stop her, Li felt relieved. Her mother was also curious, and it was as if she had obtained a magic sword. She was not afraid of her father-in-law's anger at all and went out to find out the news.
Zhou Shuren took his eldest son to the county to deliver a visiting invitation and buy gifts. The Zhou family was still poor and had very few things to give away, so they could only buy something decent.
Half an hour later, Li came back in a hurry and shouted as soon as she entered the yard, "Mom, mom, Wang Ru has been adopted and is moving things to Qian's house now!"
Zhulan put her grandson down and asked, "What happened last night?"
Li was shocked after finding out. In ancient times, people were afraid of ghosts and gods. She looked around and whispered, "Last night, Wang Ru was possessed by the married daughter of the Qian family. Because Wang Lao Si did not agree to the inheritance, Wang Ru took a kitchen knife in the middle of the night and tried to chop Wang Lao Si's baby son. Sun Shi ran out of the yard with the child in her arms, and Wang Ru followed her and made a big fuss."
Zhulan, "........"
Wang Ru has really grown in ability and learned how to scheme.
Zhao was smart but also afraid of ghosts and gods, "No wonder the succession was successful."
Zhulan looked at her two daughters-in-law and thought they were still very ignorant. If it was Zhou Wangshi, she would never say that. She thought they should be taught a lesson, so that they would not be tricked by others and cheat the Zhou family. "Wang Ru was just pretending."
Li exclaimed, "Pretending?"
Zhu Lan frowned, "What are you doing again?"
Li quickly shut up and asked in a low voice, "Mother, is Wang Ru really pretending?"
That's too scary, it's not possession, it's real chopping people!
Zhulan ignored the simple-minded Li and looked at the troublemaker. Instead, she asked Zhao, "You tell me."
Zhao recalled, "Wang Ru and the Qian family colluded in order to have Wang Ru adopted. Last time, Wang Ru said she wanted to establish a female household, but then she stopped talking for a while. She must have realized that it is not easy to establish a female household, so she thought of the idea of ​​inheritance. The Qian family's daughter married into the Wang family, and Wang Ru could establish a female household."
Zhulan looked at Li who had just reacted with approval in her eyes. These two were fighting at home, and Li was killed as soon as he appeared on the scene. She would let Zhao take care of him more in the future!
Li slapped her chest and said, "Why is Wang Ru so scheming? People who are scheming have bad hearts!"
Zhulan, "......."
When Li saw that her mother's face was not right, she wanted to cry. Her mother saw through Wang Ru and did not say that her mother was more scheming. She had a particularly strong desire to survive. "Mom, that's not what I meant. What I meant was that scheming can be good or bad. Mom is a good one."
Zhulan looked at Li coldly. Li had been too idle recently. She remembered this and withdrew her gaze and asked, "Wang Laosi wouldn't agree so easily. What conditions did he say?"
