Jinghong Tower

Chapter 240 He didn’t even dare to mention his niece’s name

Mr. He Er was stunned for a moment and stared at Mrs. Lin: "What do you mean, are these things?"

Mr. He Er looked around subconsciously. There were not many servants in the house now. Including the concierge and kitchen, there were only eight people left. At this time, they were the only two people in the house.

Mrs. Lin looked at him coldly and sneered in her heart. This is the man of the He family. He usually pretends to be a man of five or six. When something happens, he will either be a coward or turn away from the shopkeeper.

Listen, he, as an uncle, now doesn't even dare to mention his niece's name.

Although there was no one else in the room, Mr. He Er still lowered his voice: "Is it really her fault?"

Mrs. Lin sneered: "I just left you a fake seal. As a big family, you will fight to the death."

Mr. He Er couldn't believe it: "How is it possible?"

As soon as the words came out, he remembered that the unlucky things that happened to the He family really started when Yan took the seal and went to Jinghong Tower to withdraw money.

"But..." Mr. He Er swallowed hard and defended without giving up, "But it is absolutely true that the Yan family got money from Jinghong Tower."

Mrs. Lin rolled her eyes: "It's because they have noticed that you are short-sighted. With one thousand eight hundred taels of silver, you have turned the He Yan family upside down. Those who are in jail are not from Jinghong Tower."

Hearing the words "jail", Mr. He Er felt uncomfortable everywhere in his body. The feeling of being occupied by lice came back.

He stayed in jail for six days, six full days.

Mr. Lin was right, the He family's disaster started at that time.

Because of the 1,800 taels, the He and Yan families fought hard and accidentally injured many students. The He family brothers and the Yan family siblings were all imprisoned.

After paying more than two thousand taels of silver, they were released.

After that, Yan's whereabouts disappeared and his life and death were unknown.

Then, the old lady took the third child and his family, together with He Shuyuan, to Beijing to seek wealth.

Master He and Yan's life and death are uncertain, and they disappear without a trace like a drop of water under the sun.

And He Shuyuan was imprisoned for murdering the concubine, and now she doesn't know whether she is alive or dead.

There is also the old lady and the third master, who have not been heard from since they moved the capital south with the emperor.

Mrs. Lin glanced at Mr. He Er and saw that his eyes were dull and there were large beads of sweat on his forehead in the cold weather.

Mrs. Lin snorted coldly, "Why does this idiot want to curry favor with you?" Nor look in the mirror.

She was now hoping that He Ran would forget about them and the He family, but this idiot still rushed to get in front of them, even pigs were smarter than him.

Master He Er suddenly thought of something and slapped his thigh: "It's over, it's over!"

Mrs. Lin was annoyed: "Can't you say something auspicious?"

Mr. He Er stood up in a hurry and grabbed Lin's shoulder. He used a lot of force. Lin's shoulder hurt, and he slapped his hand: "You are crazy, you have such a strong force!"

This slap seemed to knock away the last energy of Mr. He Er. He fell down on the chair with a thud: "If she knows about Er Yatou and Lao Wu, will she take revenge on us?" Without waiting, Mrs. Lin replied, Mr. He Er suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed at Mrs. Lin, his eyes seemed to spit out fire: "It's all your fault. If you had been nicer to those two children, they wouldn't have run away. It's all your fault!"

The second girl and the fifth child mentioned by Mr. He Er are He Shuting and He Shuqiao.

The house was in a mess at that time, and it wasn't until He Shuyun found that all her silver jewelry was missing that they knew that He Shuting and He Shuqiao had left.

Seeing that Mr. He Er was putting all the blame on himself, Mrs. Lin mocked: "It's you who complains about He Ran every day and hurts the He family. You are worried that King Jin will put you in jail. That's right, when the second girl mentioned He Ran, I beat him She, but what about you, what did you say that night? You said that the three children of the eldest son are a disaster if they stay in the house, and they will hurt you sooner or later. You asked me to find someone to sell them far away, haha , you are so brave, you dare to pack up and sell He Ran’s younger brothers and sisters, hahaha!"

Mr. He Er was startled and rushed forward to cover Mrs. Lin's mouth.

It was really King Jin's territory at that time. Was it wrong for him to worry that He Ran would harm the He family?
Although He Ran had no contact with the He family, in any case, the three children of the eldest brother were her younger siblings. He was worried about being implicated and wanted to sell those three children. Is it wrong?
Mrs. Lin grabbed his hand hard. Master He Er felt pain and retracted his hand.

"I was just talking about it, and I didn't really sell them. Isn't He Shuming still fine?" Master He Er said.

Mrs. Lin snorted: "That's because he's not easy to sell, and the two good ones have already run away."

He Shuming is already grown up, and he has the air of a noble man. He looks like a good family man, and no one would be willing to buy one like him.

On the contrary, He Shuting and He Shuqiao are different. One is a little girl and the other is a child. No matter when the time comes, they will not worry about selling the young girl and the little boy of several years old.

Mr. He Er felt a little guilty after being told the truth by Mrs. Lin: "Okay, okay, never mention this matter again in the future, just pretend it never happened. By the way, Shuming, you should be nice to him and give him a house." Put a charcoal basin inside."

Although the winter in Zhending is not as good as outside the customs, it is still very cold.

Today's He family is no different than before, and they are more frugal in every aspect.

But no matter how frugal they were, the fire in the house of He Shuyun and her two brothers never stopped.

But He Shuming is different.

This winter, he lived in a house without charcoal fire, and his hands and feet suffered from frostbite.

Seeing the charcoal basin brought in, He Shuming said nothing and still stared out the window in a daze.

The person who came to deliver the charcoal basin was the maid next to Lin. The maid put down the charcoal basin and brought a bag of charcoal with her.

The maid couldn't help but said: "The second wife asked me to send it here. This is the best silver frost charcoal. The second wife herself is reluctant to use it."

He Shuming finally looked over: "Why?"

The maid was startled, but she quickly came to her senses: "Why, the second master and the second wife feel sorry for their nephew."

After the maid finished speaking, she hurried away, as if she was afraid that He Shuming would continue to ask questions.

He Shuming was no longer too lazy to find the answer. Whether they treated him well or not, it didn't matter. His life was ruined and would never get better.

In the government office, a soldier hurriedly came to see Jiang Tao: "The only people left in Zhending Mansion from the He family are the second brother, and by the way, there is also the eldest son of the eldest brother!

Originally, the eldest son had two children, but later the two ran away, stealing the family's money and running away. I don't know where they went. "
