Chapter 1663 Kneeling in the Yard
When people leave, the tea gets cold, which is a true portrayal.
Not to mention death, even if you step down from your position, everything will be different.
It has been almost two months and there has been no news from Lei Zhen.
How could the prominent families not take action?
How could the Long family be willing to be trapped on Shenlong Peak?
Even if Long Shu doesn't want to move, don't the elders of the Long family, big and small, want to move?
Once the family elders were about to take action, Long Shu would not be able to stop them alone, and she had no reason not to take action.
As the legal wife, it is reasonable for her to take back her husband's things.
According to Jiang Nan, the family is now completely loyal to the Long family, the Public Opinion Bureau has been disbanded, and those who should leave have left. The power that originally belonged to Lei Zhen has been completely disintegrated.
"Where are they?" Lei Zhen asked.
"He ran away! A person's true character is revealed in times of adversity, and true love is revealed in times of adversity." Sister Nan shook her head and said, "I am the only one who stayed because I knew you wouldn't die, my husband. You would definitely come back. Although I couldn't leave you with any children, I will only love you in this life."
"Are you sure? Isn't it because you have to stay and sell the house?" Lei Zhen laughed.
"Of course I am sure. Although the house must be sold, it is definitely not because I want to run away!" Sister Nan argued with her beautiful eyes open.
"You want to take the money and run away, right?"
"Not entirely...but my love for you is real. This is absolutely true. I can swear to God!"
"Speak properly!"
"Well, they were all taken away by Little Red Fish. I stayed because the Jiang family also pledged allegiance..."
This is the truth, but Lei Zhen is not angry.
He had long understood the rules of the world, which is that everything is fine when people are around, but once they are gone, don't expect the living to always protect you.
The same is true for couples.
After a man dies young, few of his once beloved wives will remain widows. And this isn't ancient times, so he will definitely have to find another one eventually.
So many times you can’t take things too seriously, otherwise you will lose your perspective.
"Hubby, please stop making trouble, otherwise our family will break up..." Sister Nan suddenly begged with tears in her eyes.
This is very rare!
For Jiang Nan, the thing she loved most in her life was money. She was very casual and generous in what she said and did, and she had never cried in front of Lei Zhen.
But now she was crying and begging, which showed that she was also tired.
"Living in fear and anxiety every day is unbearable, even with the biggest heart." Sister Nan wiped her tears and said, "The Long family didn't kill people this time, but who can guarantee they won't next time? Honey, you have enough. Can we stop tossing and turning?"
What a wonderful family! Although the sisters often fight with each other, it is actually quite good.
This is what happens when there are too many women. It was bustling every day, but now that everyone has left, it's terribly quiet.
"If you want a child, I'll give birth to one for you. If one isn't enough, I'll give you two, okay? If not for our sake, then for the sake of the children, okay?"
"Sister Shu and her child disappeared. What if someone else disappears someday?"
"Hubby, I beg you—"
If someone else said this, Lei Zhen might not take it seriously, but since Sister Nan said it, it was enough to prove what the wives at home thought.
"I don't want to be like this, but sometimes I just can't stop."
"Well, give me a little more time. Once I've settled everything, I won't care about anything and won't ask anything, okay?"
Lei Zhen could only answer like this because he still had things to do.
We have to bring Shu Jin and the child back, and we also have to solve the problems of prophets, sages, and pioneers. The most important thing is to interpret this world, or explore other worlds.
Although he flatly rejected the old village chief, didn't he also want to understand the existence and origin of the world?
As a time traveler, this is probably the biggest temptation.
You have to figure out whether the world you are in is real. Is it possible that the place you are in is similar to The Matrix?
Everything is unknown, but we are not far from the truth.
"Then you have to keep your word." Jiang Nan wiped her tears and said, "Hubby, don't make us worry anymore. This kind of life is really hard to endure."
"Okay, okay, are you short of money recently?" Lei Zhen asked.
"Nonsense, how can I not be short of money? Everything belongs to the Long family. No one respects me anymore. Where can I get the money? Wuwuwu..."
When talking about this, Sister Nan burst into tears.
Things like worrying and being scared are small things; having no money to spend is the real big deal.
"Good girl, my precious sister Nan, your husband will give you some pocket money." Lei Zhen rubbed her head and comforted her, "Do you think ten billion is enough?"
"Can't you give me some living expenses? My life is so hard..."
"Ten billion dollars."
"Hubby, you can hang me up."
"Um?"
"Try it. Don't you men like to be a little kinky?"
"this……"
Money is the key. This is what Lei Zhen likes about Sister Nan. As long as he pays her, anything is fine. The most important thing is that she can help him make money.
He didn't even know how many yards and lands Sister Nan had bought, but she would buy as many as she had the money.
…
Had a good night's rest at home.
In fact, she didn’t get a good rest. It’s not that Sister Nan could fight Lei Zhen alone, but mainly because she spent most of the night teaching Xinyue hand in hand.
So Lei Zhen didn't get up until noon the next day.
As soon as he walked out of the small courtyard, Hei Huang came running to report.
"Master, those kneeling in the front yard are all human beings."
"Make them kneel."
"Yes, Master."
“…”
Lei Zhen died, Lei Zhen came back to life, Lei Zhen died again, Lei Zhen came back to life again...
Regardless of whether Lei Zhen would collapse when he saw his own portrait, the people below were about to collapse.
They kept dying, making them restless; they kept coming back to life, frightening them into panic; and they died again not long after, making them restless again...
Who can I go to for justice?
Now that the boss is dead, the people below him must of course consider their own interests, whether it is embezzling the boss's property or choosing to betray and join others, this is all normal operation.
Although he also wanted to be loyal to the prince, the problem was that the Long family was too powerful and no one could afford to offend them.
Even the Zhu family of the southwest, a typical princeling, compromised, let alone other families? Judging the situation, we must always protect ourselves.
The old man of the Jiang family, Lu Xiaoqi in the northeast, Xiang Zhenhai in the southeast, Zhu Yuanhan in the southwest, King Han in the northwest, plus more than twenty patriarchs of smaller families.
They knelt in an orderly manner, not daring to breathe.
Among them, the old man of the Jiang family, Xiang Zhenhai, Zhu Yuanhan, and King Han are all considered Lei Zhen's father-in-law. Of course, only Xiang Zhenhai has a formal status.
In fact, Lu Xiaoqi can be regarded as Lei Zhen’s father-in-law. He even offered up his daughter.
A group of old fathers-in-law kneel here waiting for their sons-in-law's decision, which is unique in history.
Since they were all like this, the other clan leaders were even more nervous and even trembling, not knowing how Lei Zhen would deal with them.
