"So, your mother was indeed forced to leave by them?"
"Yes. Please let grandma make the decision for the boy." Yang Zhen responded in a low voice, looking sad and angry.
"Did you hear everything? Chief Yu, how should we handle this matter?"
Yu Zhuke cleared his throat and made a concluding speech: "The Zhu family forced the Jin family away and caused her death. This is undoubtedly true. Although the direct cause of death was the monster, the Zhu family is also responsible. According to me According to the laws of Yunxiao Sect, the Zhu family must make compensation for this..."
After speaking, he looked at Zhu Shiya: "Does Taoist Master Qiansong have any objection to this?"
After all, he was going to be killed by this knife. Zhu Shiya was mentally prepared and replied: "No."
"Then let's discuss the specific amount." Yu Zhuke waved his sleeves, pretending that the matter had nothing to do with him.
As Yang Zhen's caregiver, Mammy bargained with Zhu Shiya, and finally the Zhu family paid three hundred spiritual stones as compensation.
This amount of spiritual stone is roughly equivalent to Jin Qingchen's income from working in the Zhu family for ten years. Of course, this is also because the mammy and the people from the county are present, otherwise the amount cannot be negotiated.
After Nanny Zhang received the spirit stone, Zhao Liyu took out an official deed. Both parties signed and pledged, and Yang Zhen (representative of Grandma Zhang) promised not to accuse the Zhu family because of the Jin family being forced to run away.
Just when Zhu Shiya thought the matter was settled, he heard Yu Zhuke Lang said:
"This is one. Second, as the son of the deceased, Yang Xiaoyou has the right to enter the deceased's original residence and collect the belongings."
Zhu Shiya was stunned. Is there a second item? However, this was also a reasonable request. I couldn't stop it, so I had to agree, but I felt extremely upset. The good mood early in the morning will be gone.
After saying "wait a moment", he flicked his robe sleeves and flew towards the house without looking back.
After a while, he brought out someone, but it was a steward of the mansion. This man was in charge of the chores and knew where the Jin family lived.
The Jin family is the steward of the spiritual field of Yunwu Valley of the Zhu family. Yunwu Valley is located in the easternmost part of Maiqiu Mountain, about a hundred miles away from Tianzhu Peak. It is surrounded by clouds and mist all year round, hence its name.
Cloud Valley is surrounded by mountains and the trees are evergreen. There are five or six spiritual veins in it, but they are all first-order spiritual veins. Relying on these spiritual veins, the Zhu family has opened up hundreds of acres of spiritual fields, as well as some spiritual plant gardens, spiritual beast gardens, spiritual ponds, etc. Like Tianzhu Peak, this place is also an important foundation of the Zhu family in the Maiqiu Mountains.
However, although there are many spiritual veins, most of them have been used to open up spiritual fields and spiritual gardens, leaving not enough space for monks to practice. Therefore, except for a few supervisors, the others here are casual cultivators similar to the Jin family. The Zhu family employed to do this. This is the helplessness of casual cultivators. Even if they join some cultivating families, it is often difficult to obtain sufficient cultivation resources.
The Zhu family built a large manor here, and the Jin family usually lived in the park. The group of people sat on Junguan's flying boat and arrived here in about one stick of incense.
When everyone entered the manor, the steward walked in front, while Yang Zhen pretended to be scared and asked her grandma to lead him to follow at the back. This was just in case the steward suddenly asked him something, and it would be difficult if he couldn't answer it.
This manor looks very simple, with a relatively compact layout. It is obvious that the Zhu family does not want to spend too much effort on it. Everyone soon came to a small courtyard. The steward opened the door and entered first.
The courtyard was quiet, but whether it was the furnishings in the main room or the beds in the side rooms, there were traces of someone once living there. Yang Zhen even saw a hanging inscription in the east wing. The inscription read, "Yang Mengji drunkenly wrote a letter to Fairy Qingchen on a certain day in a certain year." The text was a poem praising the beauty of the fairy and expressing his admiration.
Jin hung the words in the bedroom, obviously missing her late husband, and Yang Zhen was filled with emotions.
But when she entered the kitchen and saw the overturned rice vat, Yang Zhen narrowed her eyes slightly.
It seems that this place has been searched after Jin left. This is really... great!
"Little Shitou, what have you lost? Tell me about it." Grandma's voice sounded at the right time.
"Mommy, I lost a lot and can't find it anymore." Yang Zhen said with an "angry" look on her face.
"What's there? Don't be afraid. There are nannies here and the Taoist priest of the county temple. They will definitely make the decision for you."
Over there, Zhu Shiya's face turned green when he heard the conversation between the two. This was wrong!
But the steward was ignorant and argued hurriedly: "Kids, don't talk nonsense, we didn't take anything from this!"
"So, have you come in yet?" Mammy asked with a smile, her eyes shining as if she saw a lot of spiritual stones.
"Well...since Jin is gone, we sent someone to clean up..." the steward muttered, knowing that he had said the wrong thing.
idiot! Zhu Shiya cursed in his heart. If they had refused to admit their guilt just now, the Zhao family might not be able to get angry easily, but now they have given away the leverage.
"What can a little Jin family do in the early stage of Qi training? Our Zhu family is not so short-sighted!" Zhu Shiya said disdainfully: "This house belongs to the Zhu family. If she leaves, can't we deal with it?"
Auntie ignored him, but looked at Junior Brother Yu: "Master Yu, what do you say?"
Junior Brother Yu didn't blink: "Of course the owner must report the property damage."
Grandma: "Little Shitou, what's missing? Don't worry and say it boldly. Grandma will definitely seek justice for you!"
Yang Zhen looked like she was recalling: "There was a storage bag with hundreds of spiritual stones and some spiritual herbs and pills in it. It was placed in this rice vat. My mother had no time to take it out..."
"Fart!" Zhu Shiya was furious: "A monk of the Jin family relies on my Zhu family for a living. If she had so many spiritual stones, she would have done it by herself! Besides, if she really wants to leave, she doesn't even have time to get the storage bag? Also, have you ever seen a rice vat hidden in a storage bag?"
The more Zhu Shiya talked, the angrier he became. This was simply Chi Guoguo's blackmail!
Yang Zhen stared at the ceiling and remained silent. His performance is over, and it's up to Nanny, Yu Zhuke and the others.
There was a smile on Mammy's face. It seemed that the angrier Zhu was, the happier she was.
Yu Zhuke came out and said again with "serious words": "Old Zhu, don't be angry! We didn't say that your Zhu family must have taken other people's things. But let's discuss the matter. Since the owner has made accusations, I think it's better to I'd better call everyone in the house together and ask, what do you think?"
"If we really didn't take anything, we will definitely return your innocence to the Zhu family!" Yu Zhuke's chest clapped loudly.
I'll fuck you! Countless grass and mud horses ran through Zhu Shiya's heart. Not to mention whether gathering the people in the house would lead to some troubles, even this reputation would not sound good if it spread out!
"But we can't just let this kid talk nonsense, right?" he said sadly.
"Of course not!" Yu Zhuke said righteously: "If you feel that the amount is wrong, I will report it to the temple and then send a few experienced monks over to investigate."
Still need to investigate! Will Zhu Mansion not become a sieve by then? This is absolutely unacceptable. Zhu Shiya felt miserable, but he couldn't help but swallow the bitter pill!
"How many were lost? Tell me the number!" he said through gritted teeth.
PS: There will be another chapter in the afternoon. The last part of this chapter was quite enjoyable to write, haha! I hope everyone enjoys watching it.
