Liu Yijin's identity is different now, so he naturally moved out of the house where the long-term worker lived and had his own small courtyard.
With the mayor Zhou Bao operating in the middle, Zhou Bapi's funeral was carried out nervously and orderly.
The monks from Piaomiao Temple were invited, and the Taoist priests from Luocao Temple were also invited.
Hearing the chanting of monks and the chanting of Taoist priests from the front yard, Liu Yijin leisurely held a cup of tea and listened to Erzhuzi's report on today's events.
"Brother Yijin, I selected ten young people to kneel in the shed, and each of them promised twenty copper coins. There are also a few women crying in the shed, and each of them also received twenty copper coins. Plus miscellaneous things, a total of I need five taels of silver."
Liu Yijin took out five taels of silver from his body and handed it to Erzhuzi: "Tell them later that money is not a problem. I only need a little to organize Zhou Bapi's funeral."
Erzhuzi frowned: "Brother Yijin, you have been bullying us a lot this week. Why are we working so hard?"
Liu Yijin smiled mysteriously and said: "What do you know? This is a major matter for the Zhou Mansion. Only if this matter is handled well can I stand out in front of the ladies and gradually hold the power of the Zhou Mansion in my hands. "
Er Zhuzi's eyes lit up: "Brother Yi Jin, do you want to be the housekeeper of the Zhou Mansion?"
"Steward?" Liu Yijin sneered: "Er Zhuzi, can a small butler be enough? In the future, we will be the ones who want to do big things, understand? Not only Qinghe Town, but also the entire county, it will be resounded Our name!"
Erzhuzi was so excited by Liu Yijin's words.
"By the way, Brother Yijin, I heard a few servants talking there today, saying that Zhou Biao gave each servant three copper coins and asked us to report the matter between you and the eldest lady at a critical moment."
"Oh?" Liu Yijin's heart moved, and he couldn't help showing a gloomy look: "It seems that the Zhou family and his son are sincerely trying to get in trouble with me."
Liu Yijin originally wanted to move the matter of the Zhou family and his son back. After all, the most important thing at the moment was to arrange Zhou Bapi's funeral for the ladies. Only in this way could he gain the trust of the ladies. Establish a foothold in Zhou Fuzhong.
Once you have a firm foothold, you will have more say.
Last time, out of desperation, he wisely took advantage of Zhou Bao and won Zhou Bao's trust, but it was all bought with money.
Money can make all the difference, but only if you have money first.
Whether it is before time travel or in today's society, Liu Yijin believes in only one condition: although money is not everything, but having no money is absolutely impossible.
So in this life, he not only wants to be rich, but also has power!
Since the Zhou family and his son want to play, let's have a good time with them!
Liu Yijin casually took out twenty taels from his arms: "Here are twenty taels. You can share them with the servants in the house. Remember, everyone must get it."
Erzhuzi was a little confused about the situation: "Brother Yijin, what do you mean?"
Liu Yijin smiled and said: "When I get rich, I will naturally not forget my brothers, and you can also tell them that as long as there is food for me in the future, they will get it."
Erzhuzi's face was filled with ecstasy: "Brother Yijin, you, are you so rich now?"
Liu Yijin rolled his eyes: "The Zhou family and his son are obviously trying to disgust me. If I don't fight back, our brothers will never have a good life in the house from now on."
"Er Zhuzi, you have to handle this matter carefully, don't let the Zhou family and his son find out the clues."
Er Zhuzhu patted his chest: "Don't worry, Yijin brother, leave this matter to me."
Erzhuxi ran over happily.
Liu Yijin lay on the rocking chair and continued to rest with his eyes closed.
Zhou Bapi's funeral was carried out in an orderly manner, and Liu Yijin also breathed a sigh of relief.
As for what to do next, Liu Yijin still needs to think about it slowly. After all, it is not an easy task to compete for the Zhou family's property from the four wives.
As for the Zhou family and his son, if they were dishonest, he wouldn't mind taking care of them.
Liu Yijin turned around and walked around. When he saw a group of servants saluting him, he couldn't help but smile lightly when he knew that the second pillar of money had been delivered. The next thing to do was to wait for the Zhou family and his son to take action. .
"The eldest madam can be dealt with for the time being, but the second madam is a bit confused." When Liu Yijin frowned and thought about countermeasures, an angry shout came from outside the door: "Liu Yijin, come out!"
Liu Yijin walked out of the room in confusion, and when he saw it was Zhou Biao, he couldn't help but frown: "Zhou Biao, my master's bones are not cold yet, what are you yelling about here?"
Zhou Biao grabbed Liu Yijin by the collar and said angrily: "You are nothing more than a long-term worker. My wife took pity on you and made you my godson. That was your luck, but my father worked diligently for dozens of years in the Zhou Mansion." Nian, in the end I will be angry with you, let’s see if I don’t beat you today!”
Zhou Biao punched Liu Yijin in the face, knocking Liu Yijin to the ground immediately.
"Liu Yijin, I will let you know today who has the final say in the Zhou family!"
Liu Yijin was also angry, stood up directly, and struggled with Zhou Biao.
Liu Yijin had the advantage of height and pressed Zhou Biao to the ground in a few moments. However, he also received several punches on his body and he grimaced in pain.
闻讯而来的大夫人见到自己心爱的男人被周彪揍得如此狼狈，心中大怒：“周彪，你简直反了天了！”
After everyone pulled Liu Yijin and Zhou Biao away, Zhou Biao was still cursing.
Song Lian stepped forward angrily and slapped Zhou Biao directly on the face: "You bastards, now that my master's body is still cold, you are disturbing him. If I don't punish you today, this family will rebel!"
"Someone, hang Zhou Biao up for me!"
"Wait a minute!" Zhou Shun came over in a panic and knelt directly in front of Song Lian: "Madam, Zhou Biao was impulsive and hopes that Madam will be so noble!"
Song Lian frowned: "Zhou Shun, you are also an old man of the Zhou family. Why don't you understand any rules?"
Zhou Shundao: "Madam, please calm down. I didn't know Zhou Biao would come to fight with Yijin."
Zhou Biao cursed at the side: "Liu Yijin is a villain, that kind of treacherous official, madam, he just wants to get the Zhou family's property, you can't be fooled by him!"
"Shut up!" Zhou Shun turned around and glared at his son: "Son, who asked you to come here privately to cause trouble for Yijin? Don't you know that Yijin is now the young master of the house and the godson of the eldest lady? ?"
Liu Yijin narrowed his eyes, this damn old fox!
Song Lian naturally heard the meaning of the words and couldn't help but said angrily: "Zhou Shun, what do you mean!"
Zhou Shun hurriedly said: "Madam, don't get me wrong. I'm just teaching Zhou Biao the rules. As a servant, he should do his job well. If he commits the following offense, it would be disrespectful!"
Liu Yijin glanced sideways at Zhou Shun: "Zhou Shun, if you say disrespectful, I think you are even more disrespectful than this good-for-nothing son like you."
Zhou Shun sneered: "Then let me ask you, Young Master Yinjin, how disrespectful I am."
Liu Yijin's eyes narrowed slightly: "As the steward of the Zhou Mansion, I secretly bribed individual tenants to delay the master's funeral. Isn't this disrespectful?"
"My son made a mistake. Not only did he not know how to apologize, but he also quarreled with his wife. Isn't this disrespectful?"
"That's nonsense!" Zhou Biao on the side said angrily: "My father is upright and smooth, and he has no second thoughts about the Zhou Mansion. It's not like you who seduced your wife to achieve ulterior motives."
Song Lian on the side was so angry that her face was livid: "What nonsense are you talking about!"
Liu Yijin's eyes were cold. It seemed that the Zhou family and his son came here on purpose to disgust him today.
"Zhou Biao, I, Liu Yijin, am devoted to the Lord, and I am even more loyal to the master and my wife. How can I say that I am charming!"
Zhou Biao knew he was in the wrong, but after he had said the words, he immediately twisted his neck: "You know what you do. A villain knows what you want to do all day long. You, tell me, are you charming?"
Zhou Biao's words were like a bomb, directly shocking everyone.
Song Lian's face was ashen, and all the maids were even more embarrassed and did not dare to show their anger.
Zhou Shun's face was pale, but the matter had reached this point, and there was no room for relaxation. Zhou Shun thought that if he could not stink Liu Yijin today, he would have no chance in the future.
Immediately, my heart trembled: "I can tell you, Liu Yijin. Charming the mistress is a treasonous thing. Don't think that others don't know about the dirty things you do."
Song Lian looked gloomy at the side: "Zhou Shun, shut up!"
Zhou Shun sneered: "Madam, whether it's me or him in the Zhou Mansion, it's up to you to choose!"
Song Lian took a deep breath: "If that's the case, then you and Zhou Biao should leave the Zhou family."
Zhou Shun was stunned and couldn't help laughing: "Madam, since you are so cruel, don't blame me, Zhou Shun, for being rude."
"Everyone!" Zhou Shun looked around and said proudly: "Do you all know what happened between Liu Yijin and the eldest lady?"
There was silence behind him.
Zhou Shun said coldly: "Madam, my master's body is still cold, and you do such a thing. As the housekeeper of the Zhou Mansion, I can no longer stand it."
"Today, I will expose your scandal in public!"
Song Lian looked at Liu Yijin with a pale face, and Liu Yijin sneered: "My master's bones are not yet cold, and you can't wait to slander the eldest lady. Who gave you the courage!"
Zhou Shun sneered: "If you don't want others to know anything, you can't do anything but yourself. I suspect that your master's death has something to do with you!"
"That's nonsense!" Song Lian's face turned livid with anger: "Zhou Shun, you white-eyed wolf, my Zhou family has never treated you badly, and you slandered me like this!"
Zhou Shun turned around and glared at the servants behind him.
"You guys are talking."
"Zhou Shun, you are slandering me!" Erzhuzi was the first to stand up: "The relationship between Liu Yijin and the eldest lady is innocent, we can prove it!"
"Yes, we can testify!"
Seeing all the servants talking in unison, Zhou Shun was dumbfounded, and Zhou Biao was also dumbfounded.
Song Lian was also stunned, and suddenly felt confident: "Zhou Shun, what do you have to say this time?"
Zhou Shun's face was extremely pale, and he glared at his son Zhou Biao fiercely. The latter was also confused.
Liu Yijin on the side sneered: "Zhou Shun maliciously slandered the eldest lady, caused damage to her reputation, and attempted to overthrow the Zhou family. He is worthy of death!"
