Chapter 1304 The Great Kindness
According to a servant's confession, he didn't recognize any sacrificial altar, but he... he recognized the big red box that contained the altar. It was late at night, and it was raining, so he came out in a daze. From a distance, I saw the side door of the mansion open, and a group of people were moving things into the mansion, including this big red box.
At that time, he felt strange. He hadn't heard of the arrival of new medicinal materials, and medicinal materials have extremely high requirements for storage conditions. This kind of weather is obviously not suitable.
What's even weirder is that these people didn't light up the lamps, and each of them was dressed in coir raincoats with the brim of their hats pressed down so low that they couldn't see their faces clearly. observe.
Under the cover of the night and the sound of rain, these people didn't notice him, but as a flash of lightning pierced the night, this man briefly saw their faces clearly.
The two leading people are actually Master Wu and Guanshi Zheng!
In addition to them, there is also Zhang Sheng's face. He still remembers this person's face until now. He heard a few conversations, which were not very clear because of the sound of wind and rain. This person told Master Wu that the goods were all unloaded. Listen The accent seems... like it came from Shanghai.
Hearing that Jiangcheng asked Laifu to fetch a pen and paper, he quickly drew a portrait according to what the person said, and did not stop until the person nodded and said it was very similar.
Holding the painting, Jiangcheng asked the third young master's people to identify it. Unfortunately, everyone said they didn't know each other, and the scope expanded to the entire Wu Mansion. The whole Wu Mansion also said that they had never seen this person before.
Jiang Cheng had no choice but to put away the paintings. He already had a plan in mind. Since this person was likely to be from Shanghai, he would go back to Shanghai to seek help from the shopkeeper of Baomozhai. With the other party's connections, the chances of finding someone would be much higher.
After tossing around for so long, it was almost dawn. The second young master proposed to arrange for the masters to go back to the wing room to rest, but Yuan Shanyuan refused. He said that everyone still has important things to do, and it is inconvenient to stay in the Wu residence. It's better to leave earlier.
"Why, the curse has not been completely lifted?"
Hearing such words, Lai Fu panicked even more than the second young master. This trip almost ruined the entire Wu family. If he did it again, he would not even dare to think about the consequences.
Luo Tianhe put on a cautious attitude, and said in a low voice, "The curse of resentful infants is more complicated than all of us thought, so we are not completely sure if it will repeat itself, but please rest assured, Second Young Master, we have already taken care of everything. Only the curse is showing signs of awakening, please send someone to Shanghai to inform us immediately, the arrangement we left is enough to protect your safety in a short time."
The second young master couldn't help sighing, and with Laifu's support, he showed a helpless wry smile, "Ahem, then... then I will thank you masters, we will never forget your great kindness to the Wu family."
Seeing that they had decided to go to Jiangcheng, the second young master no longer wanted to keep him, and asked Laifu to choose some of the best carriages in the mansion to send the masters back to Shanghai. Eating and drinking, everything is complete, very respectful.
The first thing Fatty did when he left Wu Mansion was to find the little boy. The moment he saw Fatty come out safely, the boy who was squatting at the entrance of the alley almost cried. After some comfort, Fatty took the boy into the carriage.
Because the number of carriages is sufficient, everyone rides separately. The three fat boys in Jiangcheng sit in the same carriage. The fat man breaks apart the sugar cakes that the second young master prepared for them, and gives half to the doctor and half to the boy. "Thanks to you this time." , Don’t be afraid, we will take you back to Shanghai, where we have a friend who is very upright, let me try to see if I can ask him to find you a job.”
The person the fat man was talking about was naturally the shopkeeper of Baomozhai, and the other party was able to come here for Mr. Kegong's affairs, so he was definitely a friend who could be trusted.
The little boy squatted all night, sleepy and hungry. After eating, he fell asleep in a daze. The fat man turned his head to Jiang Cheng and asked in a low voice, "Is the Wu family's curse really not lifted?"
"I don't know, I don't think Luo Tianhe and Yuan Shanyuan know either." Jiang Cheng's gaze stayed outside the window, and there seemed to be something attracting him in the night.
"Then...why do they say that?"
Hearing that Jiang Cheng slowly retracted his gaze, he looked at Fatty with a trace of complexity, "Because we have to protect ourselves, and we must guard against others. Second Young Master...is our last hurdle."
"This time is different from the past. The Eldest Young Master and the Third Young Master are all dead. The Second Young Master has become the real talker of the Wu Mansion, with great power in his hands. If he wants to attack us, there are many people in the Wu Mansion. It will be very difficult for us." We can withstand it, which is why we had to leave overnight."
"Because once we leave late, we won't be able to leave until the second young master completes the arrangements."
"We saved his life, and he wants to attack us?"
It is said that the kindness of a drop of water should be repaid by a spring, but the fat man couldn't understand it at all. They saved the second young master's life, so it's fine if they don't repay, but the other party actually wants to kill them.
Jiang Cheng shook his head, "Brother, not everyone has your heart, not to mention the Second Young Master, even the Eldest Young Master, the Third Young Master, and Master Wu will make the same choices under the same circumstances, and stand aside when things go wrong. Everything comes first.”
"We know too many things about Wu's residence, Mr. Wu's black history, and the third young master's secret collusion with the bandits. These are all serious crimes that lose their heads. Once it is leaked, the Wu family will be finished."
"Furthermore, to be able to accumulate such a family fortune in this world, the second young master of the Wu family will not be too clean. This person looks like a breeze, but in terms of means, he is no worse than his two brothers. At least the means of buying people's hearts are even better. I am superior, to tell you the truth, I have detected the murderous intent in the second young master, let us leave alive today, I don't think he can sleep well."
"But Luo Tianhe and Yuan Shanyuan's action is equivalent to clarifying the words. The curse of your family is still there, and it will break out sooner or later, and only we can solve it. If you kill us, wash your neck and wait for death."
"Second Young Master played against the mouse, so he had to let us go, but this person is not stupid. When he realizes that the curse is over, he may come to trouble us again."
"If he dares to come, I will kill him!"
The fat man's face turned hard, and later, as if he suddenly remembered something, he changed his voice and asked: "The horse bandits in the mansion, and those who belong to the third young master..."
Jiang Cheng raised his hand and made a gesture of wiping his neck, "Of course it's all slaughtered. The third young master has already thought out the excuse for him. The horse bandit sneaked up late at night, and the second young master led the crowd to resist desperately. In the end, the horse bandit was wiped out. Unfortunately, The third young master and his followers all died in the scuffle."
"The second young master lost his loved one, and was devastated, but especially thinking of the hardships of Mr. Wu's entrepreneurial efforts, he deeply felt that the family business in Wu's family could not be left alone for a day. The second young master endured the grief and sat in the head of the family with tears in his eyes."
Jiang Cheng sighed, and thought a little bit: "If the young master hadn't died early, I'm afraid he would have been forced to die in the scuffle as well."
