Chapter 240 The Little Scholar Killed by His Classmates (24)
The two young men held the teacups and drank them in one gulp as if they were drinking wine.
After the two of them agreed, they got up and went back to their respective places. Shuangshuang had to go back to the school to pack her luggage.
Then I went to the master's residence to say goodbye to him and his wife before returning to Yangjiazhuang.
Yuming held Shuangshuang's hands with reluctance.
"Brother Yu Shuang, will you come over and play with me again?"
"Of course I will.
Don't worry, my brother will go back to check on the family situation and may come over in a couple of days."
When I returned to the village and just walked to the entrance, I was surrounded by a group of aunts and ladies.
It turned out that the yamen runner who was supposed to announce the good news had come earlier to report the good news.
"Our young man Yu Shuang has made great progress. From now on, we have to call you Master Tongsheng, right?"
Shuangshuang immediately looked embarrassed as if they were being teased.
"Auntie, aren't you deliberately trying to embarrass me?
You can just call me nephew as before.
Call me that forever, even when you’re seventy or eighty years old! "
"See, I told you that our Yu Shuang boy isn't that kind of person, but you still refuse to believe me."
"Alright, alright, that's all you can do. Stop stopping him and let him go back quickly. Ruyong's family must be waiting anxiously."
"Thank you, auntie. I'll take my leave now." Shuangshuang quickly left.
When I passed by the house next door, I heard the sound of boards clapping coming from inside.
However, the gate to the courtyard was closed, so he couldn't see the scene inside.
"Little Orange, tell me what happened?"
Xiaojuzi did not explain, but instead kindly shared his perspective.
He saw that the person being beaten with a stick was Mrs. Yu, the one who had spoken outrageously the day the Yang family entered the village.
Although Yang Ruqing said at the time that he would let the clan leader deal with it as he pleased.
But the dead are the most important, and everyone agreed to complete Yu Yunning's funeral first, so they just locked her up in the woodshed in the backyard.
Later, some old events and the matter of Yu Shu were involved. This time, Yang Ruqing did not give anyone any face.
Shuangshuang muttered, "Has Yang Ruqing finally made up his mind?"
"Oh, if he doesn't make up his mind, he'll die!
Moreover, when Yang Yushu was thrown into the water, evidence was found that it was the old hag who gave the order.
Then, Yang Ruqing sent Yang Fu back to Suzhou to investigate. Yang Fu came back and confirmed that many things were done by that old woman. How could he not be angry?
They both nodded. Mrs. Yu was in charge of all matters in the backyard of the Yang Mansion.
Backed by the Qingyang Earl's Mansion and Yu Yunning, he embezzled the Yang family's money and harmed the Yang family's descendants. If he could tolerate this, then Yang Ruqing's official position would be in vain.
At this time, Mrs. Yu was tied up and lying on a stool like a wild boar, being beaten with a stick.
Some loyal servants in the Yang Mansion all exclaimed that the fight was well done!
And Mrs. Yu was mysteriously confident that her family would come to rescue her!
Therefore, even though she has been locked up all this time, her aura as a responsible mother has not diminished.
He cursed at Yang Zhong, "Yang Zhong, you dog slave, how dare you let someone kidnap me! Have you forgotten where I was born?"
"Oh, old hag! I don't need to know where you were born!
I just know where you will be buried after today."
"You, you, you are talking nonsense!"
Hearing Yang Zhong speak so seriously, Mrs. Yu was really panicked.
Thinking of what the person she sent out that day said.
"It's done!"
She was very proud at that time!
So what if he is the top scholar?
So what if he is the emperor’s confidant?
The backyard has always been the world of women, especially since the old lady from the Yang family passed away.
Most of those who were loyal to Yang Ruqing in this mansion were sold out by Yu Yunning at her instigation, or were sent to the manor with excuses.
The few people who are loyal to him are useless. How can they possibly shake the loyal men planted by the mistress of the house?
Nowadays, although Yu Yunning is gone, all those connections are in her hands. It is not an exaggeration to say that she is the invisible old lord of the Yang Mansion.
Therefore, she just had to wait for Yu Yunning's funeral to be completed, and then return to the Yang Mansion in Suzhou to plan the next step and let Yang Ruqing die.
But unexpectedly, Yang Ruqing has not interacted with people in the clan for so many years.
He even had the crazy idea of adopting a son to inherit his property.
How can this be?
If he really succeeded in adopting this adopted son, then these old guys in the clan would definitely go to the Yang Mansion to show off their power and make decisions.
Only by completely severing the connection between Yang Ruqing and these old stubborn people in the Yang family can we succeed.
Only then would he listen to their advice and marry a concubine's daughter from the Earl of Qingyang's Mansion as his second wife. In this way, all the affairs of the Yang Mansion would still be in their hands!
Originally, things had been going according to her plan. As long as the adopted son died, the old stubborn people in the clan would definitely blame Yang Ruqing and would never have anything to do with him again.
But I didn’t expect that the little bastard would be so lucky that day.
When his subordinates came back, they clearly said that he was dead, but he was actually revived.
Moreover, they were all tied up and thrown into a yard and locked up by the peasants brought back by Yang Ruqing.
Although they were very confident that what happened that day was done seamlessly and perfectly.
It can be seen that Yang Ruqing's carefree attitude also shows that he is uneasy.
Now, they have become the fish on the chopping board.
Yu Yunning, their backer, has fallen, and those of them who came from the Yu Mansion can only hope that the Qingyang Earl's Mansion will be willing to support them.
But so much time has passed, and not a single person from the Bo family came to offer condolences?
No matter how prominent she was, she was nothing more than a slave with a death bond in front of her master.
If Yang Ruqing really disregarded the relationship between her and Yun Ning and insisted on disposing of the elderly people they were caring for, I'm afraid...
The more Yu Pozi thought about it, the more panicked she became, and gradually a look of panic appeared on her face.
She no longer spoke as loudly as before, but instead cried and shouted at Yang Ruqing.
"Master, Master, our lady's body is still warm!
You are going to punish her confidants, aren't you afraid that people will call you an ungrateful villain?"
“Oh, ungrateful?
Then I would like to ask, whose kindness have I forgotten and whose kindness have I betrayed?"
"Of course it's our wife's kindness. She and you have been in perfect harmony and love with each other for many years.
But I didn't expect that she had just died, and you turned your back on her and wanted to punish the people around her. Isn't this ungrateful? "
"A loving couple? What a loving couple!
The couple is so loving that they want me to have no children and grandchildren, and want my Yang family's huge fortune to be left with nowhere to go, so that it can only benefit her family and you dogs, right?"
"No, no, no, no, sir, how can you think of our lady like this? She has always put you first in her heart."
"Yes, maybe I do have some weight in your wife's heart.
But the remaining eighty to ninety percent are all pretending to be you dogs and slaves, and those ungrateful bastards from his mother's family."
