Zhou Yiming said to his mother lightly: "I'm not sure yet whether I'm pretending or not, but it doesn't matter. I have plenty of ways to prove whether my conjecture is true or false."
Hearing what Zhou Yiming said, all the servants present were very happy, because everyone knew in their hearts that their young master was not inferior at all against the thieves from the North, and his killing methods were even more brilliant. It can be seen that the skills he used to deal with them were Fu's tricks must also be very cruel.
After a while, regardless of whether Laifu's coma was real or not, the old boy suffered.
Everyone was in a desperate mood, hoping that Zhou Yiming would take action quickly so that he could vent his anger on vulnerable groups like them.
Zhou Ming had a wicked smile on his face, raised his left leg, and prepared to give Laifu a heavy blow.
At this time, Zhou Ruhai on the side saw this situation, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He knew in his heart that if Yi Ming kicked him down and Laifu woke up, he would be embarrassed. In order to avoid this situation, he stopped him Zhou Yiming advised: "Son, don't mess around yet!
Although this old guy has committed a heinous crime, you can see that he has been beaten to the point where he is no longer human. If you still hit him hard while he is unconscious, he might be dead.
I think this matter shouldn't be rushed. You'd better listen to dad and go into the house to eat first. "
Everyone present was worried that Zhou Yiming would give up the idea of taking care of Laifu under Zhou Ruhai's dissuasion.
However, their worries did not last long. Zhou Ming used practical actions to prove that they were worried too much.
As soon as Zhou Ruhai's words fell, Zhou Ming's raised leg not only did not put it down, but stepped on Laifu's ankle accurately and hard. Although he only used three successes, after one kick, Laifu's ankle was The wrist was still broken, and the entire ankle collapsed and became flat.
Looking at this cruel scene, the onlookers trembled in their hearts, because although they were not the ones injured, they could imagine how severe the pain was.
Zhou Ruhai's heart was in his throat, fearing that the next second, Laifu would suddenly sit up and start howling like a ghost.
Mrs. Zhou and Lin Ajiao also opened their eyes wide, watching Laifu's reaction.
But what disappointed everyone was that after suffering such serious injuries, Laifu was still lying on the ground, motionless, as if he was a dead person.
This made everyone onlookers begin to wonder whether Zhou Ming's judgment was correct.
Zhou Ruhai hesitated for a moment, and after confirming that there was no movement from Laifu, he suddenly felt calm. He stroked his beard, looked at Zhou Ming and said earnestly: "Son, the salt I have eaten is more than the rice you have eaten. More, even if you are young and promising now, you still have to take dad's words to heart.
I said Laifu really fainted, but you didn't believe me. What's the result now?
If you keep doing this and don't listen to the old man's advice, you will suffer losses later. "
Zhou Ruhai originally thought that by scolding Yi Ming a few times, the matter would be over. After all, facts have proven that Laifu will not wake up easily. Even if Yi Ming refuses to give up, he can't think of any other way for a while. .
He turned around and called to the servants at home: "Everyone, please stop looking at the excitement and go do what you have to do. The young master is very hungry. Prepare a banquet immediately."
Zhou Yiming looked at Laifu lying on the ground and thought to himself that I looked down on this old boy. He didn't expect that in order to save the dog's life, he had such a strong tolerance for pain.
Okay, since you want to fight with me to the end, don't blame my men for being ruthless.
He suddenly spoke, interrupting Zhou Ruhai's words: "Dad, please don't be anxious. If you give me a stick of incense, I will make sure this old guy kneels on the ground and begs you for mercy."
Zhou Ruhai had already determined in his heart that this old guy like Laifu would definitely not wake up easily, so when he saw what Yi Ming said, even though he knew he was joking, he still reluctantly agreed.
"Since you don't give up, let's try again. But there is one thing I want to say beforehand. If your method doesn't work anymore, you can't continue to mess around." Zhou Ruhai showed off his elder style and pretended Said generously.
Zhou Yiming nodded, thinking, Dad, there will be times when you will regret it.
The reason why Zhou Ming was so convinced that Laifu's coma was fake was because when he was leading someone to carry him back, the person who was carrying him accidentally hit his head on the wall.
This collision was an unexpected event without any warning, so Laifu had no time to prepare mentally. After the collision, one of his shoes fell to the ground, exposing one foot, and the big toe of this foot , and within a very short period of time, he shivered.
No one noticed this detail, only Zhou Ming saw it, so no matter how Laifu pretended, he could never fool Zhou Ming's eyes.
All the servants in the yard were sweating for Zhou Ming, because under such circumstances, it takes a lot of courage to go against one's master's wishes. If it turns out later that the young master's guess was wrong, Then his prestige in the hearts of the Zhou family will drop instantly, and if he didn't seize the opportunity to deal with Laifu this time, it will be even harder to deal with him in the future.
After all, my master has shown signs of protecting Laifu.
Lin Ajiao quietly walked up behind Yi Ming and asked in a low voice, "Ms. sir, are you sure?"
Zhou Yiming also responded in a low voice: "Believe me, I won't be wrong. But you have to help me act in a play."
As soon as she heard that she would be used, Lin Ajiao was very nervous for a moment, fearing that if she didn't perform well, her husband-in-law's plan would be ruined.
"What needs to be done? Just tell me and I will fully cooperate." Lin Ajiao answered simply in a voice that only Zhou Ming and herself could hear.
Zhou Yiming looked back at her and said, "Daughter-in-law, come here. I have something to ask of you."
Lin Ajiao's eyes widened, and she understood instantly that the scene had already begun. She was not mentally prepared, her palms began to sweat, and she was so nervous that she didn't know how to speak.
After a while, she gradually stabilized her mind by adjusting her breathing, and then she slowly spoke: "Mr. sir, what are your orders? Just speak up!"
Zhou Yiming smiled, and then started to circle around Laifu while saying: "Actually, it's not an important thing, but it's just that old guy Laifu, lying on the ground all the time, is not the solution.
You heard what dad said just now. He thought Laifu had really passed out, but I always felt that he was not that weak and must have been faking it.
We, father and son, each hold our own opinions, and no one agrees with the other. If we never get the truth about this matter, neither of us, father and son, will feel at ease.
So I plan to use one of the methods in our yamen to force a confession, and use it on Laifu. If he can bear it, it will prove that my father is right. In turn, it will also prove that my guess is right. . "
As soon as Zhou Yiming finished speaking, everyone present was very curious about how cruel the method of extorting confessions he was referring to was.
Zhou Ruhai felt that Yi Ming was fooling around, because Laifu's performance just now fully demonstrated that he was not pretending, and even if he was severely punished, it would not help at all.
Zhou Ming is just wasting his time by doing this.
He looked up at the sky and found that the moon had come out. He thought that today's meal might have to be eaten in the middle of the night.
Although he had a lot of doubts and dissatisfaction in his heart, Zhou Ruhai had no intention of stopping his son, because he knew his son's temper, and if he didn't let him have enough trouble, he would definitely not give up. After all, what Laifu did to him just now was too much. It's just too much.
When Mrs. Zhou heard that her son was going to use severe punishment on Laifu, she immediately panicked. After all, she was from a womanly family. Although she hated Laifu because she felt sorry for her son, but if she saw his skin and flesh bruised, and he was worse than dead, she would I still feel a little bit unbearable in my heart.
After all, Laifu has been working as an errand in the house for so many years, and he is very familiar with him every day. Even if he died unjustly, Mrs. Zhou did not have the courage to watch him die.
Mrs. Zhou has been hesitating whether she should go back to the study first to escape this cruel scene, but in the end she gave up the idea, because if she ran away from the battle, it might be a kind of betrayal in Zhou Ming's eyes. If it causes a misunderstanding between mother and son, the gain outweighs the loss.
"Ms. sir, what should we do?" Lin Ajiao asked very thoughtfully.
Zhou Yiming smiled slightly and was very satisfied with Lin Ajiao's reaction: "It's actually very simple, you can do it as soon as I teach you.
After a while, you take people to the kitchen and heat a pot of oil. After the oil is hot, put some seasonings in it. Remember to add salt and vinegar. Put these seasonings into the oil pan, stir evenly, and then put it in the oil pan. When it's hottest, take it out and give it to me.
I would use a small spoon to sprinkle hot oil on Laifu's wounds one by one, letting him taste the most painful feeling in the world.
If he is still unconscious under this situation, I will give up..."
"Ms. sir, I understand. I'll take someone to heat up the oil right now." Lin Ajiao agreed while reaching out to greet a few maids to follow her to the kitchen.
"Don't go, please spare my life!"
Before Lin Ajiao could move, a medical miracle appeared in front of her eyes.
I saw Laifu begging for mercy miserably, while turning over with difficulty, kneeling on the ground, and kowtowing fiercely.
In fact, Laifu was on the coachman's carriage just now. After fainting from fright, he quickly regained consciousness. However, he felt that he had no face to face his young master, and he was afraid that his young master would kill him, so he He kept pretending to be unconscious, trying to escape punishment in this way.
Originally, he knew in his heart that it would be difficult to get through this trick of pretending to be comatose, so he originally planned to stop pretending after entering the Zhou family and seeing his master. He thought that he still had some friendship with his master. If you sincerely repent, you may still have a chance of survival.
