Chapter 558: Sorry, I can't do it. Although among the eight major families in the Han and Tang Dynasties, the Li family and the Su family have the deepest backgrounds. The two families are equally matched and have been secretly competing with each other over the years.
However, the scale of the Li family's ancestral tomb is not as large as that of the Su family, because the Li family's inheritance time is shorter than that of the Su family. However, the Li family has stepped on all the historical processes of the past hundred years, so other families feel that the Li family is lucky. Better.
As everyone knows, luck is a type of strength. There is no doubt about the ability of the last three generations of the Li family. In a relatively chaotic era, if you make a single wrong step, everything will be lost.
As for the Su family being able to reach this point, it is because the family is so luxuriant and huge. Even if it takes wrong detours, it can correct its mistakes in time and get back on track.
Therefore, the position of head of the Su family was changed by different factions, so that the Su family did not fall. The best chance for the Li family to overwhelm the Su family was the turmoil twenty years ago. If the Li family had united with other families to quickly deal a fatal blow to the Su family, then the Su family would not be the Su family today. Maybe there are He might be kicked out of the eight major families.
But who allowed Grandpa Su Qin to turn the tide and resolve the internal fight in the shortest possible time, thus allowing the Su family to escape the disaster.
At this moment, in the Li family's ancestral tomb, Aunt Chu had found Li Mingjing's tomb in an inconspicuous corner. After all, he was the illegitimate son of the Li family.
The Li family ancestral tomb cemetery is empty and quiet, with the occasional chirping of birds making people feel a bit eerie. Aunt Chu laid out various tributes in a leisurely manner and wiped the tombstones with the towels prepared in advance. Although the staff of the Li family's ancestral tomb wiped all the tombstones every week, Aunt Chu was used to it after coming here so many times.
In the process of wiping the tombstone, she recalled all the past with Li Mingjing. If it weren't for Li Mingjing, she would definitely not have achieved what she has today. She might have been married a long time ago and lived the most ordinary life. How could she see the scenery from high places?
After wiping the tombstone, Aunt Chu slowly squatted down and began to burn paper. She said slightly sadly: "I came to see you again. Maybe others have forgotten you, but I will never forget. You will always live in my heart." , it’s like you never left.”
"How have you been over there this year? Have you been staring at me, have you been worried about me, do you think that if you were here, I wouldn't have suffered those grievances? You are always the one to worry about. , always put others in the most important position, if not, you would not take such a path." Aunt Chu shook her head and smiled bitterly.
"I said I would come see you every year. Fortunately, the Li family did not reject me. I went through the most difficult year last year. Fortunately, everything is over. I finally did what you didn't do, but now I still can't do it. It's not enough at all, because I want to avenge you." Aunt Chu said it very straightforwardly.
Fortunately, there were no other members of the Li family around. Otherwise, if they heard this, they wouldn't be able to get rid of Aunt Chu immediately? When the yellow paper was about to be burned, Aunt Chu stood up slowly and said, "Just wait and wait. I have no other goal in this life. Revenge for you is the only goal. I know you don't want to, and I don't want to." But you gave me this life. No matter how hard they forced me to die, one day I will give them back." After saying this, Aunt Chu stood up resolutely, turned around and left.
When Aunt Chu walked to the door of the Li family's ancestral grave, the second master of the Li family, who had been sitting in the car, slowly got out of the car and walked towards Aunt Chu with a smile.
Brother Wei is the core direct descendant of the head of the Li family, but after all, he is just an outsider to the Li family. The second master of the Li family, who is extremely powerful in the Li family, is a powerful figure second only to the head of the Li family. Everyone has to flatter him. No matter what he wants to do, not only Wei Ge but also others don't dare to stop him.
Who in the upper capital doesn't know the second master of the Li family? When she saw the second master of the Li family, Aunt Chu's face instantly darkened to the extreme. She stared at the second master of the Li family and forcibly suppressed the hatred in her heart.
Brother Wei followed closely behind. Aunt Chu came back to her senses and looked at Brother Wei subconsciously, as if asking Brother Wei with her eyes, did you tell him that I came?
Brother Wei shook his head slightly, as if to indicate that this matter had nothing to do with me. After Mr. Li walked up to Aunt Chu, he greeted him politely: "Xiaoying, your temperament is still as beautiful as before. It would have been much more interesting if you married into the Li family back then." Aunt Chu He didn't answer the call and asked instead: "I didn't expect to see the second master here. Could it be that the second master is waiting for me on purpose?"
"You guessed it right, because I have something to talk to you about." Mr. Li said bluntly. Who knows that Aunt Chu responded without hesitation: "Second Master, I don't think we have anything to talk about." Second Master Li's face changed slightly, and he stared at Aunt Chu fiercely and said: "Chu Ying, don't worry about it." I'm sorry, I'm looking for you just to give you face, don't think that you have some achievements now, so you dare to show off your power in front of me."
"You are the second master of the Li family, I am just an ant, I don't dare." Aunt Chu said angrily.
Mr. Li said loudly: "You know best. If you don't know, I will let you know."
"Since the second master is looking for me, I want to hear what the second master wants to see me for?" Aunt Chu asked, holding back her anger.
Mr. Li lit up a cigarette and said calmly: "I know what happened to you in Qinzhou, and I also know how you got back up again, but don't forget who gave you your primitive accumulation. Without the help of the Li family after Li Mingjing's death, you would not have been able to gain a foothold in Qinzhou, so you are labeled as the Li family."
"The label of the Li family?" Aunt Chu laughed and said, "I am not a member of the Li family, so why should I be labeled as the Li family."
"What? Climbing up the high branches of the Su family, you have forgotten your previous identity? Don't think that because you have the support of the eldest young master of the Su family, you can not take the Li family seriously." Second Master Li said with narrowed eyes.
Aunt Chu asked directly: "Second Master, just say what you want to say directly, no need to beat around the bush."
"Give up the Su family and return to the Li family. The Li family will support you again and let you go further." Mr. Li said bluntly.
When Aunt Chu heard this, she laughed unabashedly. Mr. Li was obviously displeased and said, "What, you refuse?"
"Second Master, you also know that now in Qinzhou, I have stood at the highest position. How far can I go? When I was in crisis, I came to the Li family, but the Li family didn't even want to see me. Now I have reached this point. The highest position in Qinzhou, you come to me again, the Li family really knows how to pick peaches." Aunt Chu's words were obviously a slap in the face.
Instead of being angry, Mr. Li smiled and said, "Do you really think that if you climb up to the Su family, our Li family will be unable to do anything to you?"
"Is the Li family better than the Su family?" Aunt Chu asked back, this sentence was somewhat sarcastic. Second Master Li said word by word: "Chu Ying, as long as you promise what I said, I can support you to enter the core of the Li family. Can the Su family give it to you?"
"Whether the Su family pays it or not is the Su family's business. I haven't thought about it, but I, Chu Ying, am not an ungrateful person, so I can't do what you said." Aunt Chu clearly refused.
She now understood that the Li family was tempting her to betray Su Qin. It seems that they already know their relationship with Su Qin.
Mr. Li stared at Chu Ying and said, "I'll give you one last chance. You can give me the answer after you think about it carefully." Who knew that Aunt Chu didn't hesitate at all and said straightforwardly: "I'm sorry, I can't do it. arrive."
"Chu Ying." Mr. Li said angrily in embarrassment. Aunt Chu said disapprovingly: "If the second master has nothing else to do, then I will leave first." After saying this, Aunt Chu left without hesitation, and the angry second master Li's eyes were filled with murderous intent.
Brother Wei stood aside and did not dare to speak. In the end, he could only watch Aunt Chu leave. But what he knows is that Chu Ying has offended the Li family to death this time. Offending Mr. Li is equivalent to offending the Li family.
But does Chu Ying have a choice? No. Any smart person would make a choice like Chu Ying, otherwise he would end up offending both sides.
