Chapter 272 Jiang Si
An adult from the Fucheng Inspection Department came to the quarry. Huo Xing asked Pei Zhan to follow him and take a look.

The man was nearly forty years old. He was not very good-looking, had a fat head and a big belly, and was extremely wretched. In the past, Pei Zhan would have been too lazy to pay attention to such a person, and might have ridiculed him a few times. But now, there is nothing he cannot do. of.

Huo Xing didn't expect that he would really come. He said, "This person's surname is Jiang, the same Jiang family you asked me about before."

Pei Zhan is no stranger to it. The Jiang family is second only to the Prince of Yanbei in the city.

Yunyi was the illegitimate son of the second master of the Jiang family. Originally, Pei Zhan didn't know about it, but at that time Tao Zhen destroyed Yunyi's shop. Pei Zhan was worried about Yunyi's secret revenge, so he went to Huo Xing to inquire. one time,

There are only a few big families in Fucheng, and by chance, Huo Xing has met Yun Yi.

The second master of the Jiang family was a romantic man for a long time, but unfortunately he died before he was thirty. Mrs. Jiang loved this son the most and could not just watch her son die. She originally planned to adopt a child from the clan to the second master Jiang. But I don't know how I found out that Mr. Jiang actually had a child, but the child was secretly given birth to by a prostitute, so he was never recognized.

Now that Mr. Jiang is gone, the child that everyone despises has become his only bloodline.

Mrs. Jiang sent someone to bring the child back. At first she thought it was a girl, but later she found out that it was a man disguised as a woman.

Mrs. Jiang was so happy that she thought it was God who took pity on the Jiang family and left such a root for the second child.

She doted on the child very much. This incident was considered an anecdote in Fucheng. When the child recognized his ancestor and returned to his clan, the Huo family was also invited. Huo Xing met Jiang Yi and happened to witness him bringing a member of the same clan to the family. The child kicked into the river, and even the kite the child placed on the bank was torn into pieces and thrown into the river. Therefore, Huo Xing was very impressed by him.

At that time, Pei Zhan came to inquire with him. As soon as he heard the description, he knew that he was the illegitimate son of the Jiang family.

Huo Xing also warned Pei Zhan not to act recklessly.

As for what Pei Zhan did later, Huo Xing didn't know.

Huo Xing said: "This is the fourth master of the Jiang family. He has no ability. He has been working as a sinecure in the Audit Department. I don't know why he was sent here this time."

Pei Zhan is also a supervisor, so dealing with this person is essential.

Huo Xing had other meanings: "The relationship between the Jiang family and the Huo family has always been delicate. Please help me keep an eye on this place and don't let the Jiang family cause any trouble."

Pei Zhan nodded to express his understanding.

In fact, Jiang Si just came here for a few days and never came again. Huo Xing prepared and arranged fine wines and charming beauties for him in the city. He was drunk and dreaming all day long. At least from the outside, he was really It's a useless piece of trash.

...

Tao Zhen has copied the Da Shun Law. He thought he could read it slowly in the future and returned the book to Mr. Lin first.

After going to the city to do some errands, Tao Zhen walked back. As soon as he left the city, he met two annoying people.

Wu Lai was standing leaning against the carriage, as if waiting for someone. Suddenly he glanced and saw Tao Zhen. His eyes lit up and he pretended to say hello.

Tao Zhen didn't want to pay attention to him and avoided him to leave.

Wu Lai smiled and said: "You also want to go back to the village, why don't you let me see you off? It's just on your way."

Tao Zhen glanced at Wu Lai and wondered why he wanted to go to the exile village at this time. Didn't he know that carriages from outside were not allowed in these days?
Well, before Wu came, there didn't really seem to be any carriages coming into the exile village.

"No, I like walking." Tao Zhen said and walked forward. Wu Lai was about to say something but someone grabbed him. Hu Xin glared at him angrily: "What are you doing?"

Wu Lai smiled: "It's nothing, it's just a ride on the road. The carriage is spacious, so it's okay to have one more person in it."

Hu Xin said mockingly: "I don't like your carriage."

She glanced at Tao Zhen and continued: "Tao Zhen loves riding Master Huo's carriage the most, right, Sister Tao Zhen?"

Tao Zhen didn't want to pay attention to these two people at all, but Hu Xin was like a fly. Although it didn't bite or hurt anyone, it would fly out from time to time and make people sick.

She smiled and said, "Yes, I just like riding in Mr. Huo's carriage."

Hu Xin sneered: "Don't be proud, Master Huo is just playing with you. Who are you? Do you think people can really like you? Master Huo has a fiancée." Tao Zhen was stunned, but she didn't expect it. Huo Xing is actually engaged. It seems that we should avoid suspicion in the future and keep a distance from him.

Hu Xin thought she was sad, and she became more and more proud. Just as she was about to say something, Tao Zhen interrupted her: "Hey, I was just wishful thinking, so I would like to congratulate you first. It seems that you and Mr. Wu are close to good things. "

She turned around and left.

Hu Xin's face turned pale with anger.

Staring at Tao Zhen's back.

Tao Zhen is used to killing people and punishing people. Hu Xin is very angry, so she naturally despises Wu Lai, but Wu Lai also despises her. Let alone marry her, Wu Lai probably just wants to play with her. .

Tao Zhen hit her sore spot again.

She turned to look at Wu Lai and asked angrily: "Do you want to marry me?"

Wu Lai smiled and said, "Don't be ridiculous."

How could he possibly marry a woman from an exiled village? It was just for fun.

Hu Xin had been hanging on to him for a while, spending a lot of money on him and not allowing him to touch it. This made Wu Lai a little annoyed. Originally, he had some patience to stay with her for a few more days, but Tao Zhen just aroused him. The evil fire came, and Wu Lai's remaining patience was burned away by the fire.

"A new makeup shop has opened in the city. How about I take you to have a look?"

Hu Xin frowned: "Aren't you going back?"

She said this, but her heart was already shaken.

Rouge and gouache, it's been a long time since she used it.

Wu Lai said: "It doesn't matter. It's still early. It's quick to go back by carriage. You can go shopping without delay."

Hu Xin hesitated for a moment, but finally couldn't resist the temptation and nodded in agreement.

In the carriage, Hu Xin wanted to look outside, but Wu Lai kept pulling her to talk.

The carriage finally stopped, and Hu Xin opened the curtain and found himself in a secluded alley.

"What did you bring me here for?" Hu Xin said angrily.

Wu Lai smiled and said: "It has been so long and I have bought clothes and jewelry. Shouldn't you give me something in return?"

Hu Xin was startled: "What kind of reward?"

After asking, she understood.

She looked at Wu Lai with disgust: "Who do you think you are? You were not even worthy of carrying shoes for our family. How dare you miss me?"

The smile on Wu Lai's face dropped, and Hu Xin felt terrified when he saw him.

"Don't mess around." Hu Xin wanted to get out of the car, but Wu Lai grabbed him and threw him in the car.

Wu Lai sneered: "Do you think you are still some rich lady? You are now a low-level prisoner in the exile village, worse than a prostitute in the Bada Hutong."

Hu Xin's face was pale. She was a little scared, but she still said firmly: "Let me go, or I'll call someone."

Wu Lai said with a smile: "You took the initiative to get on my carriage. If you shout out now, you can let everyone see what kind of scumbag you are. There are a lot of rumors about you in the exile village..."

Hu Xin's face was pale, her lips were trembling, and she stared at Wu Lai in horror, but she couldn't say a word.
