When Zhou Shigong entered, Haitang saw his brother Hai Jiao coming in behind him.

However, Hai Jiao used special skills, his movements were light, smooth and unobtrusive, and he moved lightly to his sister's side without attracting the attention of anyone in the room.

Except for my sister Haitang.

Zhou Shigong and Zhou Jinpu's father and son had a fierce quarrel, and Zhou Ma stood nearby and had no time to pay attention to them.Zhou Yijun was aware of Haijiao's arrival, but was quickly attracted by the quarrel between her grandfather and uncle, and only nodded hurriedly to say hello to her cousin.

Taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention to their brother and sister, Haitang took Hai Jiao and quietly took a few steps back. While staring at the young man who came with Zhou Jinpu and his wife, she lowered her voice very low and said to Hai Jiao: "Brother, look over there. Does the man standing five steps behind Zhou Jinpu look like the young killer you failed to catch a few days ago?"

Hai Jiao was startled, then turned around and looked over with surprise on his face.When he entered the house just now, he only knew that there were many young men and women with unfamiliar faces in the room. Why didn't he notice this young man who was dressed incompatible with everyone in the third room of the Zhou family?

No, this is not a boy!
Hai Jiao carefully observed the skin and frame of the opponent's hand, and felt that it was quite familiar: "The hands are very similar, and the body shape is also similar. If he also has injuries on his elbows, then they are inseparable! "

What made him even more sure that he had not admitted his mistake was the most important point - the young man was clearly standing in the room, only five steps away from Zhou Jinpu, one of the central figures in the quarrel, but he was so inconspicuous.When Hai Jiao entered the door, he observed the situation in the house and didn't even glance at him. It was obvious that the other party had a unique skill that did not attract attention.

Coincidentally, Hai Jiao was a secret agent in his previous life, and he also learned this unique skill!The young man's attention was also not attracted to him when he entered the door.The two of them can be regarded as equals.

But now Haijiao has noticed the opponent and discovered the flaws in the opponent, so he has the upper hand temporarily.

It was too late to report to the old military advisor or the prefect's Yamen. In order to prevent the young killer from escaping from his hands again, Hai Jiao decided to strike first.

He didn't say anything more to his sister, and moved out first, planning to block the only entrance and exit door in the house while the young man wasn't paying attention, so as to prevent the young man from noticing something was wrong and escaping through the door. .

Haitang and her brother had always had a good understanding of each other. Seeing his movements, she could guess what he wanted to do.It was right for the brother to block the killer's escape route first, but he should also be careful of that person jumping over the wall, taking the people in the house as hostages, and threatening the brother to give way.

She looked at Zhou Yijun beside her, who was still concentrating on watching the quarrel between father and son in the third room of the Zhou family.She turned her head and glanced at Xiudun behind Zhou Yijun, and then glanced at the tea set on the small table in the corner.

Very good. When she came, the tea had just been served with colored silk, the pot was wrapped with a cotton cover, and the water was still hot.The tea cup is relatively bulky, but the material is strong enough.With the teacups, lids, coasters, and teapots that she and Zhou Yijun had together, there were quite a lot of tools that could be used to make concealed weapons.If it doesn't work out, there is a foot stove at the feet of my aunt Zhou Ma. The charcoal fire inside is burning brightly. Just be careful not to burn innocent passers-by...

Just as Haitang was observing the available weapons around him, Zhou Shigong had revealed Madam Ma's true purpose of encouraging Zhou Jinpu to build a private glass workshop. The latter was stunned and couldn't believe this was the truth: "Impossible! Grandma's My biological son is still in the Zhou family. I was raised by my grandmother. She has always loved me. Why did she collude with outsiders to betray the Zhou family?! Even if it is for my aunt, she has not been home for almost 20 years. How can she be better than her? Second uncle and I are more important?!"

Zhou Shigong sneered: "You don't believe it? I couldn't believe it when I first heard about it! Your nanny is the person who works for your grandmother. He went to inspect your mother's dowry villa, and he had no intention at all. Looking for a place to build a workshop, they just want to build an empty house as a cover, recruit a few idlers to fill the scene, and fool the craftsmen poached from the border army! They just want to get the formula, and have no intention of building a serious workshop. Glass. This was all confessed by your nanny himself. Why do you think I kicked him out?! He is your nanny. Under the guise of working for you, in fact, he has been working for your grandmother and aunt secretly. This kind of The evil slave who betrayed his master, am I still keeping him for the Chinese New Year?!" "What the nanny said?" Zhou Jinpu was obviously shocked, "No way! That's not what he told me!" He turned to look at his wife, " Did you hear it too? The wet nurse clearly said that all this is because the stepmother is slandering the loyal servants around me!"

His wife wanted to nod in agreement, but looking at her father-in-law Zhou Shigong's face, she didn't dare to really nod.However, she was calmer than her husband, and she had come to her senses at this time.As expected, the great-grandmother did not really love her husband, but only used him to achieve her own goals.The couple had been deceived all along, and the father-in-law had also been deceived quite a bit. But now that he had woken up, he became angry with shame.

On the other hand, her stepmother-in-law, Zhou Ma, seemed to be more stupid and easy to talk to than she thought.As long as she changes her attitude, talks sweeter and coaxes more, this step-mother-in-law will probably be much easier to deal with than the mother-in-law...

Zhou Jinpu did not receive support from his wife and was hit even harder.He has always believed in his wife, so it seems that he was really deceived?
Zhou Jinpu felt that the sky was falling. How could his grandmother, who had always loved and supported him, be a bad person? !There must be some misunderstanding here!
He howled loudly: "Impossible! I'm going to find my grandmother to find out!" After that, he turned around and rushed out.Fortunately, Haijiao avoided it in time and didn't collide with him.

Zhou Jinpu's wife was worried that something might happen to her husband, so she hurriedly asked her father-in-law and aunt-in-law: "Father-in-law, my family, my daughter-in-law, please go and persuade your husband..."

Zhou Shigong sneered and waved his hand impatiently, and Zhou Jinpu's wife and children quickly chased after him.

The well-dressed young man did not follow him and left. He was looking directly at Haijiao.Only then did Hai Jiao make way for Zhou Jinpu, and the boy discovered Hai Jiao's figure.He was secretly shocked and did not dare to be careless, suspecting that he had been recognized.That day, the two of them chased each other for several miles in the wilderness and fought several times. Although he had his face covered, the distance was so close that he could not guarantee that the other party would not recognize him.

He stood opposite Haijiao, and no one spoke first.

The first person to speak was Zhou Shigong. He frowned and glanced at the young man: "Zhang Pinggui? Why are you here?" His face was not very good, "The Jinpu family is fooling around, why are you following here to get involved?!" As an outsider, he came here to get involved. Doing household chores with others, what kind of tutoring is this? !

He was even more dissatisfied with Zhou Shicheng, the younger brother born to Mrs. Ma. He thought it was outrageous that he sent his subordinates to Chang'an without properly training them.

Zhang Pinggui looked embarrassed: "My lord, please forgive me. I was talking to Lianghou when brother Jinpu suddenly called the Lianghou brothers and sisters to go out, and also called me. I didn't know what happened. , I thought Brother Shi needed help with something..." When he arrived at the main courtyard, he found that he was involved in the internal fighting in the third room of the Zhou family, and it was too late to escape.

Zhou Shigong's expression softened slightly: "It turns out that Jin Pu is causing trouble. Ignore him, and there is no need to interact with his father and son in the future." But he knew in his heart that since Zhang Pinggui was the son of Zhou Shicheng's old tribe, he was closer to Mrs. Ma's side. It's normal, but he can't let his eldest son's family get close to the people on his stepmother's side anymore!
Zhou Shigong asked: "Do you have any clues about your errand? I was about to write a letter to Shicheng. How about recommending you back to the Minzhou Guard?"

Before Zhang Pinggui could answer, Hai Jiao and Hai Tang looked at each other.

How could we let this killer go to Minzhou?Then the arrival of Prince Yingchuan, wouldn't it be like a sheep entering a tiger's mouth? !
