Chapter 284 Contracts Don't Count

Zhufeng's expression sank, he frowned and raised his voice a little, "What do you mean? There are black and white letters and seals, what's wrong?"

The housekeeper looked embarrassed, "Boss, I really can't make the decision. How about I tell the second master about this and see how he decides, and please wait a little longer for the boss."

Zhufeng was already displeased, but he could only hold back first and agreed.

So, it was time for another two cups of tea, and the so-called second master in the housekeeper's mouth came late.

Zhuifeng was already impatient to wait, so his expression was not good, he directly pressed the contract on the table, and said with a calm face: "Here is the contract in black and white, the huge Zhang family, do you still want to deny it?
It should be noted that at this time, my batch of medicinal materials may have already boarded your Zhang family's merchant ship. Do you still want to seize it by force? "

The second master of the Zhang family glanced at the contract, hehe smiled and said, "By the boss, this is a serious word, my Zhang family is well-known, so naturally it is impossible to do such a thing.

However, this contract was signed between you and elder brother, now that elder brother is seriously ill and unconscious, how dare I give you food so easily.

What's more, whether the elder brother can survive this time is another matter. If the gods are really not good at it and let my elder brother die, then this contract will also have to be voided.

Of course, we still have to do the medicinal material business, but the price will have to be renegotiated between you and me. "

Chasing the wind, I remembered the words I heard in the teahouse.After thinking for a while, he said, "I am proficient in medical skills, why don't you let Boss Zhang and I have a look." While talking, he took out the recommendation letter written by Pan Chenggui, the governor of Chengyang County.

Before leaving, the junior sister of the sect master handed him the recommendation letter, and he was still puzzled, it seems that the junior sister of the sect master should have expected the current situation.

The second son of the Zhang family frowned slightly, but he took the recommendation letter and read it carefully, and the more he read it, the more complicated the expression on his face became.

In the end, he chuckled, and handed the recommendation letter to Zhufeng, but he said: "Boss Zhu, this is Mu Country, you just want to fabricate your identity as a genius doctor with a piece of paper, and treat me like a three-year-old child." Is it easy to cheat?

I just said that my eldest brother is seriously ill, and you quickly said that you are a miracle doctor, which is too coincidental.

Boss Zhu, if you don't want to be sent to the government by me, then please leave. "

After finishing speaking, he walked away proudly.

Looking at the back of Zhang's second child, Zhuifeng suppressed the fire in his heart instead.

He put away the contract and the letter of recommendation, and left the main room right after him. However, taking advantage of the unpreparedness, he sneaked into a corner, and finally heard the sound to identify his location, and sneaked into Boss Zhang's yard.

It's a pity that there are many servants and guards around the courtyard. Although it's okay to break in, it's obviously unnecessary to make a big noise.

Then he turned to the side by the wind, and jumped up directly, as light as a swallow, and flew up to the roof without disturbing anyone.

Uncovering the tiles and looking into the room, Zhufeng frowned unconsciously.Even in front of the bed, there were many people guarding him, all of them carrying stick weapons.

Seeing no opportunity to take advantage of it for the time being, Zhufeng flew down the roof again.Then hid in the corner, still listening to the various voices in the courtyard, trying to find some opportunities that could be used.

Soon, he heard a woman's cry, followed by a man's voice.

"Sister-in-law, you can't blame us for this. Who told you that you didn't give birth to a son for eldest brother, so that elder brother has no children at his knees, and no one to inherit the family business. We are brothers, how can we watch the painstaking efforts of elder brother be destroyed in one go?" .”

The woman cried, "Isn't it okay for me to adopt a son?"

The man was obviously displeased, "Sister-in-law, elder brother hasn't left yet, you want to destroy our Zhang family? Just adopt an outsider casually, let the Zhang family's family business fall into the hands of outsiders, that's how you give our Zhang family As a daughter-in-law?"

The woman was also angry, crying and yelling: "Don't think that I don't know what your plans are, you just wait for him to die early, so that you can snatch this huge family property and let us orphans and widows live on the streets. "

At this time, another male voice sounded, rather forcefully, "Sister-in-law, you have no conscience in what you said, blood is thicker than water, we only hope that elder brother will get better soon.

As for you, you didn't give birth to a son to the Zhang family, so why do you stay in our Zhang family?You are kind to you when Zhang's family is not divorced, but you are good, and you still want to hang on. "

The woman was completely enraged, she gritted her teeth and said, "You bunch of rotten bugs and bedbugs who 'eat every household' are just watching to take everything here out of my hands.

You dirty things, your eldest brother is still alive and not dead, you dare to come to your door to make trouble, you are so deceitful, aren't you afraid of being poked in the back by the world? "

"Hmph, sister-in-law, even if you don't leave now, it will only last for two more days. Once the elder brother loses his temper, I don't think you have any excuse to stay here."

After that, a series of footsteps sounded, and Zhufeng guessed that the sons of the Zhang family had left.Immediately afterwards, there was the helpless cry of the woman.

Then, another old woman's voice sounded, "Madam, I searched all over, but I couldn't find the promised person."

The woman stopped crying, and then she gritted her teeth with hatred, "They must have caught me. The master has revealed before that he wants to accept Ying as his son-in-law. This time, they have completely cut off my third mother's way of life." .”

The old woman also looked anxious, "Then what should we do now? The outside is guarded everywhere, and we can't get out. We can't just find a servant in this house to marry the eldest lady."

Speaking of this, the woman's cry became a little more miserable, and she clutched her handkerchief and sobbed, "Why do I have such a hard life, I gave birth to three children, but I didn't have a son, and my master suffered from a strange disease.

God, aren't you letting us orphans and widows have no way out? "Then there was a burst of crying.

After listening to the wind, I understood.The voice came from the inner courtyard, it was not easy for him to go in and meet people directly, and it would be even more difficult to tell if someone bumped into him.

So, Zhu Feng simply didn't hide, and walked out from the corner in an upright manner, and then looked left and right seemingly anxiously.

Soon, a young servant saw him and saw that he looked strange, so he stepped forward and asked, "Who are you? What are you doing here?"

Zhufeng immediately breathed a sigh of relief, "I'm a doctor. I just came out and lost my way accidentally. Please show me the way."

The boy was startled, "Are you a doctor? Who invited you here?"

Zhufeng's face was red and heartbeat: "I was invited by your wife."

His voice was not low, but it startled the boy, he quickly said "shh" to him, then looked left and right to make sure no one noticed, and then whispered to him: "Then I will take you Go see Madam." If Madam came here, you will know as soon as you meet.

He bowed his hands to the wind to say thanks, and then was sneaked around by the servants and led him to a remote place.

On the way, the servant explained: "Now the yard is full of two-bedroom and three-bedroom people. They want to take advantage of the master's frustration and take over our family's property, so it's very inconvenient to move around. I'm wronged sir."

"It doesn't matter." Zhui Feng pushed aside a squeak in front of him with his hands, followed the young man through the bushes through the outer courtyard, and came to the main room in the inner courtyard.

 The so-called eating Juehu means that after the death of the head of the Hujue family, clan relatives come to divide up the family property and bully the orphans (daughters) and widowed mothers.For one thing, in a patriarchal society, daughters are considered "people with a foreign surname".If a family has no son, no one will inherit the property, and it should be owned jointly by the clan.Therefore, it is considered as a matter of course that clan relatives come to carve up the land, and it is "the fertile water does not flow to outsiders' fields."Second, women are weak. Even if the law recognizes that daughters have the right to inherit, it is difficult for women to stop violent snatching by relatives.To eat a Juehu is to bully the Juehu family because there is no man in the family, so recruiting a son-in-law (holding a son) or adopting a son is the choice of a Juehu. Adoption is a second-class choice. After all, the adopted son is the son of another brother, and naturally part of the property belongs to other brothers. , the good thing is that orphans and widowed mothers will also be taken care of by adoptive sons, but in fact adoptiveness is also a disguised manifestation of being destitute.
