Rebirth of the scholarly lady

Chapter 200 Devouring the Past
Out of Zuixianglou.

Huo Huan boarded his newly bought carriage with a gloomy face. The frame was not made of high-quality agarwood, and because it was a new carriage, there was still a smell of new paint on the carriage, which made Huo Huan a little uncomfortable .

Huo Huan sat in the frame, and Cao Tianchao followed in as a matter of routine.

Huo Huan squinted at Fu Yu, who was still standing at the door of Zuixiang Building watching his frame, through the car window, and said with disdain: "Hmph, a profiteer is making money from ordinary people, and this major general is doing justice for the heavens by ripping him off. .”

Cao Tianchao whispered uncomfortably: "Master, if he sues to Jingzhao Mansion..."

Hearing this sentence, Huo Huan snorted coldly, and said: "Who do you think I, as the major general of the Huo family, and a lowly businessman who bullies and dominates the market, who will they stand on? Besides, Jing Zhaoyin, hehe , I know me, but I don’t know him, alas, but if there are a few thorns in the Jingzhao Mansion, his denunciation will be somewhat effective, but the effect is not great."

Cao Tianchao immediately silenced and bowed his head in silence.

A cynical smile appeared on Huo Huan's face, and he thought to himself: Hehehe, what a bunch of fools!
As the saying goes, the poor do not fight against the rich, the rich do not fight against the powerful, the poor do not fight against the rich, and the rich do not fight against the officials. What about the complaint?The possibility that a person with such an identity will report on him is very low!
Thinking of this, Huo Huan immediately swept away the depression that he had just received not much money, and said vigorously: "Okay, let's go to the next place to collect money."

The carriage ticked away.

Through another window, Cao Tianchao saw the Wanbaozhai where there were endless crowds, and couldn't help saying in a low voice: "Master, Wanbaozhai is very prosperous, and it should be making money every day."

Huo Huan narrowed his eyes slightly, followed Cao Tianchao's line of sight, and couldn't help sighing: "That's right, but unfortunately, the backer of the boss behind the scenes, Kanehu, is Eunuch An, and Eunuch An belongs to the queen. It's a pity that we can't get the oil and water, but we have to be careful in doing things, lest they know something they shouldn't know, and we will be in trouble."

Huo Huan started a day-long search operation.

But Nan Surou, who returned to the Hu Mansion, found Qi Jianke and asked for the dossier that recorded Huo Huan.

Looking at the thick book, the deeper Nan Surou read, the more gloomy her expression became.

She didn't close the file until the afternoon.

Yun Rong was sent out by Nan Surou to order to prepare hot water, only Dong Liu stayed by her side.

Dongliu has been following Nan Surou all this time, so of course she knows about Liantang. Regarding the plot against Song Fugui and the thief couple, Dongliu still admires Nan Surou very much in retrospect. Now she sees Nan Surou making love to Huo Huan In my heart, I couldn't help but take a few more glances.

After Nan Surou closed the dossier, she paced back and forth in the study, muttering to herself: "So Liantang's suicide plan has something to do with this Major General of the Huo Mansion. He used that method to blackmail others. , More than one merchant was victimized. Liantang borrowed a lot of debts in order to make confessions on a regular basis, so the whole family was pursued by the creditors. Now that he is dead, his family has stopped doing business, and the debts have been paid off. It's a blessing in disguise, anyway, their family is just one of the ones that Huo Huan blackmailed, without the head of the family, Huo Huan doesn't remember them either."

"But people who don't know him outside think he is a war hero. The negative news that he killed the old lady was originally pushed by Jingzhao's prefect on the grounds that the frame of Huo's house was stolen. This kind of thing Ordinary people don't know how to inquire, they say that the wind is the wind, but they don't know that person covers the sky with one hand." Dong Liu frowned.

Nan Surou remained silent, not responding to Dong Liu's words.

What happened to Huo Huan reminded Nan Surou of a woman brought back by Hu Yu who almost committed suicide by jumping into a well a few days ago...

Because Nan Surou once said that if Hu Yu meets someone who wants to commit suicide, you are welcome to introduce him, and Nan Surou will turn her into a powerful dying person.

This sentence was just a joke in Nan Surou's eyes, but Hu Yu took it as an imperial decree. He brought back a woman who seemed to be committing suicide, and told her that as long as she was willing to pay the corresponding price, His sister will definitely avenge her.

The woman came to see Nan Surou full of hope, and described the whole process of her misfortune.

At that time, only the woman Nan Surou was in the inner room.

After the woman introduced herself, she started straight to the point, "...half a year ago, my husband-in-law hanged himself, and the concubines and concubines in the family were heartless and ungrateful, and ran away without making a sound, leaving me and my daughter Shui Ning, I only found out later that my master was a liar because he used to be a doctor of Youfang before. Although he kept his name incognito, the old accounts were uncovered by the major general of the Huo family, who threatened him..."

From the beginning to the end, Nan Surou looked at her solemnly and did not interrupt her.

Ordinary people would not go to the doctor in such a hurry. At least, when they saw Nan Surou at such a young age, they should doubt her ability. Perhaps it was because this woman felt that she could no longer live. There is nothing to lose. There is no need to hide this kind of tragedy from anyone.

If Nan Surou was a member of the enemy's family, and she would kill her to silence her, she probably would not have wished for it. This is the feeling that life is worse than death, so she committed suicide.

Looking at Nan Surou's immature face, the woman seemed to recall her young daughter, and couldn't help feeling sad. Although she was sobbing all the time, she fully expressed her pain, "...So, Huo Manor's The major general said that the fact that my master is a liar will affect his image, which will affect his business, and it will also have a negative impact on Shuining's future search for a husband. I handed it over to the major general of the Huo family. Who knows, that major general didn't believe that our family has no money, and even begged my master to earn it with all his strength since he has no money... Who knows, my master hasn't said anything yet, so the Huo family's The major general saw our daughter."

"He met Shuining? How old is Shuining?" Hearing these words, Nan Surou couldn't help but think of Yun Ai's warning: Huo Huan has a habit that is different from ordinary people...

The woman didn't know what Nan Surou meant by her words, and said truthfully: "Indeed, when he saw Shui Ning, our daughter was always held in his hands, she was taught very well, and she was well cared for. There is a bit of beauty, the major general of the Huo Mansion saw it, he smiled and suggested to my master to sell Shuining in Yanhualiu Lane, saying that such a beauty will surely catch the hearts of those nobles who like children and earn a lot of money. After hearing the money, my master was very angry, but the major general of the Huo Mansion said, "Anyway, you used to be a liar, right? It must be easy to convince such a young child"..."

Hearing this, Nan Surou only felt that Huo Huan, the so-called "war hero", was really a guy who was not as good as a beast. He used other people's disgraceful past to blackmail him, and his character was really bad.
