This time, Mrs. Luo was stunned for a long time. When Ren Yaoqi thought she had fainted, Mrs. Luo finally spoke. Her voice was filled with the dizziness and vicissitudes of the old man: "I was a second-class maid next to the young lady of the Zhai family back then."

"What is Han Dongshan's real name?"

Mrs. Luo looked at Ren Yaoqi and struggled for a long time: "Zhai, he is Zhai Yaozu, the young master of the Zhai family."

Ren Yaoqi thought of Xia Sheng saying that Han Dongshan was called Zu Geer before, and his name matched.

"He was still very young when he left Yanbei. Do you remember his appearance?"

"Zhai, Mr. Han only hid aside and looked at it that day, but the first person I recognized was Mr. Han. He looked very similar to Mr. Zhai, especially his eyes." Mr. Luo paused, "I was shocked when I met Mr. Han at the Ren family last time. In addition, Miss, you asked me to come over and ask about the Qu family. I really don't know anyone from the Qu family, but I think what you want to ask is actually the Zhai family. That day, Shui Ai was trying to leave the house to see him, and I thought of that Mr. Han.

The more I thought about it, the more I became more and more uneasy, so I found out the residence of the Han family. The Han family is also a wealthy family, so I naturally couldn't get in. I was just trying my luck, but I didn't expect to see Zhai, and Old Master Han came out of the mansion... I took care of the young master of the Zhai family for a while, so I recognized him. At that time, I was shocked and ran away. But I was always a little uneasy, so I wanted to go and check it out in the afternoon. But I didn't expect that I was discovered by Mr. Han and he chased him."

Ren Yaoqi was silent for a long time, and finally asked: "What are the grudges between the Zhai family and the Ren family back then?"

The Luo Pozi's face became paler and her skin was dull. At this moment, her face was completely blood-colored, and she looked like she was covered with a layer of death.

"Miss Fifth, I haven't had a few years of life when I am old, but I'm already enough to live until I'm at this age. But I'm really worried that I won't get into the water. This child was picked up by me. When I kicked my legs, I'll be helpless. Can you, can you be kind enough to take her in as a maid by me?"

It is obvious that Mrs. Luo has made such a request now that she wants to negotiate terms with Ren Yaoqi. If Ren Yaoqi is willing to take in Shui Ai, she will inform her of what she knows.

The superiors don’t like to be threatened, and Ren Yaoqi is no exception. Besides, Luo Pozi is a slave to the Ren family farm. However, facing Luo Pozi’s turbid and expectant gaze, Ren Yaoqi still said indifferently: “I can keep her. If it is suitable in the future, I will put her in my room.” If it is not suitable, she will not ask for it.

She could understand the mood of La Po Zi. There was no need to worry about a maid in the Ren family's mansion, but to serve her, she needed to get her recognition first. Not everyone can be a personal maid. Ren Yaohua's fate back then was a good example.

Seeing that Ren Yaoqi did not refuse, Luo Pozi hurriedly said, "Don't worry, Miss Fifth, Shui Ai is pure by nature and not stupid. If you ask someone to teach her, she will definitely learn anything."

Ren Yaoqi nodded: "I will ask someone to teach you."

Mrs. Luo breathed a sigh of relief and her face looked a little better.

"Are you seriously injured?" Ren Yaoqi remembered that Zhu Ruomei said before that her injury was not serious, but Mrs. Luo's face was really not very good, so it seemed that she was explaining her funeral.

Mrs. Luo shook his head: "I am not seriously injured, but I am old and I know my own body."

Ren Yaoqi thought that he would find another doctor to come and take a look later, but Mrs. Luo was already hoarse and said: "Miss, do you want to ask about the grudges between the Zhai family and the Ren family?"

Ren Yaoqi nodded.

Mrs. Luo sighed and turned her head, but her eyes passed over Ren Yaoqi's shoulder and projected behind her.

Ren Yaoqi turned around and saw Xiao Jingxi.

Xiao Jingxi glanced at Ren Yaoqi, smiled faintly, and then stood up calmly, without any embarrassment on his face.

However, seeing that he was about to go out, Ren Yaoqi called him out and said, "Young Master Xiao, please stay." She turned her head and said to Mrs. Luo, "You can tell me, it's okay."

Mrs. Luo looked at Xiao Jingxi in surprise. Although he couldn't guess his identity, he knew that he was not from the Ren family by the name. Mrs. Luo couldn't help but hesitate and looked at Ren Yaoqi and stopped talking.

Mrs. Luo actually had good intentions. She believed that the Ren family members would never want to be known by outsiders.

Ren Yaoqi understood what Luo Pozi meant, but she still shook her head: "I know what I know, you can tell me."

Xiao Jingxi looked at Ren Yaoqi, raised his eyebrows, and finally sat down again.

Seeing Ren Yaoqi say this, Luo Pozi couldn't say anything, so he slowly said: "No one remembers the Zhai family now, but decades ago, the Zhai family was one of the top major families in Baihe Town. Although the Zhai family is low-key, the Zhai family is also ranked among the top in Yanzhou."

Mrs. Luo's voice was dull and vicissitudes, like sand wrapped in her throat.

"Mr. Zhai is knowledgeable and kind, but unfortunately he lost his wife when he was middle-aged. Mr. Zhai only had a legitimate son, and he had just gotten married. The young grandmother looked very outstanding, was well-educated and kind, but she was not very good at her body. The doctor said that if she wanted a child, she needed to take good care of her children for a year or two. After thinking about it, Mr. Zhai continued to retaliate. Because she was afraid that her son and daughter-in-law would be wronged, she married the daughter of an ordinary family in the town. This new wife lost her father since childhood. There was only a mother who was ill in the family and a younger brother who had not yet gotten married. She was a good person.

He was a man who was alone in supporting his family and had to support his younger brother's schooling. Mr. Zhai also heard her reputation and married her in the house despite the opposition of the clan. He also asked someone to take his wife's mother and brother to the mansion so that she had no worries. However, this new wife was also unlucky. She died of illness just two years after entering the house. Her mother followed him after hearing the bad news. Mr. Zhai and Mr. Zhai were both kind-hearted. Seeing that his wife died of illness, only one uncle was left, so she still asked the uncle to stay in the mansion. She also arranged to marry him and give him a shop to take charge of the family business."

Mrs. Luo paused, as if he was thinking about it, as if he was stunned: "The young grandma finally got pregnant the second year of her marriage and gave birth to the young master Zhai Yaozu, but the Liao people came over a few years later. Because of the suspicion of the previous emperor, the Yanbei Palace was in name only, and the army sent by the southern court could not resist the Liao people's cavalry. The result can be imagined. At that time, many families in Yanbei were preparing to move south, and the Zhai family also had this plan, but because the young grandma had it.

The Zhai family delayed the pregnancy and wanted to wait until the child was stable before leaving. Fortunately, the Zhai family moved out of the ancestral house to take refuge and found a safer place to stay for the time being. At that time, my uncle's family also moved in. At this time, a good coal mine was found on the west mountain. There were several barren hills in the west mountain in our young grandmother's dowry. We didn't take it seriously, but we didn't expect that the water rose because of the discovery of the coal mine."

Only then did Ren Yaoqi realize that this Luo Pozi should have recognized some words. Although she was in a bad mood, her words were clear, which was very inconsistent with her rough image.

"The Zhai family originally decided to wait until the young grandmother is better and go south to Jiangnan. The young grandmother wanted to sell the coal mountain in her hand because there were many people who wanted to buy it at that time, and the price was very suitable. Our young grandmother didn't know how to manage it, and the Zhai family was not greedy for the things in their daughter-in-law's hands. In the end, this matter was handed over to the uncle to do."

"Last time later, my uncle came back and said that he had already found a buyer for the young grandma, and the price was very fair. The Zhai family and the young grandma trusted their uncle, so they handed over the matter to the uncle. However, the mountain was sold, but the money was not brought back. Because the Zhai family had already decided on a day to go south with the rest of the family, so they could not wait here. My uncle said that he would stay for the young grandma to wait for the money and then go to Jiangnan to find them after the money was obtained. Naturally, the Zhai family refused to let the uncle take this risk."

Ren Yaoqi had not spoken and listened carefully to Mrs. Luo recalling the past. Xiao Jingxi had not moved there, and even the sound of breathing was inaudible.

"At this time, King Yanbei brought his men and horses back. King Yanbei's army was protected by gods, so the Liao people were naturally defeated and could only retreat step by step. Seeing that they were about to be driven back to the outside of the pass, the Yanbei people couldn't help but be excited. However, the Liao people were unwilling to go back to the outside of the pass, but the Yanbei's army was chasing him tightly, so they planned to rob Yanbei and then leave, and rob Yanbei's property and women."

As if thinking of that bloody life, Mrs. Luo's voice was a little trembling.

"The King of Yanbei is about to be fought back, and the Zhai family doesn't want to leave. After all, the Zhai family's foundation is still in Yanbei, and going to Jiangnan again, no one is happy. But one day, the Liao people found the place where the Zhai family hides. As soon as the Liao people came in, they flipped through things and snatched away the fines and money of the Zhai family. Mr. Zhai is an open-minded person and told his family not to resist, and the money will be gone. But... but those beasts were unwilling to accept their robbery, and they fell in love with our young grandmother."

As Mrs. Luo spoke, tears fell down her face and her words were inconsistent.

"But the young grandma was pregnant at that time! Mr. Zhai and Mr. Zhai naturally couldn't watch the young grandma being snatched away by those beasts, and began to fight to the death. In the end, they were all killed. The young grandma was in public... in public... wu..."

Ren Yaoqi has never experienced that period, and it is unimaginable. But now when he hears Luo Pozi say this, he always feels so nervous that he feels so uncomfortable.

Mrs. Luo cried for a long time before he could barely stop: "At that time, my sister Chuner and I followed the young lady's maid, Li Niang, and took the young master out, and escaped by luck. When we came back, we saw the corpse on the ground. The young lady was even humiliated to death, with one corpse and two lives. We were scared and almost fainted. The eldest young lady was chopped and pretended to be dead and escaped. We dragged the Liu Mama out, but fortunately the injury on her body was not fatal. We originally wanted to

I found a place to hide first, but Li Niang was the dowry maid of the young grandma. She grew up with the young grandma since childhood and said she wanted to go back to collect the corpse for the old and young grandma. Although we were afraid, we thought that the master was treating us well on weekdays, so we went back again. Unexpectedly, this time we saw the uncle and his wife. We originally thought they were here to collect the corpse for the master and the others, but we wanted to go forward, but we didn't expect that we heard some thrilling words."

Luo Pozi was already numb: "The couple came to see if the people in the mansion died. They also started arguing because they had not found the young master's body. The Liao people were all attracted by them. They told the Liao people that the Zhai family was hiding place, and they also told the Zhai family that the Zhai family was very rich and that there was a woman with outstanding appearance in the Zhai family, who killed people by borrowing a knife. It turned out that this uncle had long known that the King of Yanbei was about to be called back. They didn't want to follow the Zhai family to Jiangnan, and they fell in love with the mine in the young grandma."

It was summer and the ventilation in this room was not good enough, but Ren Yaoqi felt a bone-broken coldness. This coldness seemed to climb up from the bottom of his heart, just like it was scratched by apricot protruding from the poisonous snake, making people shivered.

"We covered the young master's mouth and hid in the dark. I looked at the young master and found that he was leaning well in Li Niang's arms, but those eyes were staring at the couple who were arguing. I thought he was silly at the time... I forgot that the young master was already not young at that time, and the master always praised him for being smart and alert, and he could learn anything quickly."

The room fell into silence, and Mrs. Luo was trapped in the memories and could not come back to his senses for a while. Ren Yaoqi lowered his eyes and stared at his hand. She didn't know what she was thinking. She had not spoken since Mrs. Luo began to talk about the past.

At this time, a gentle voice broke the silence: "Since you are the maid of the Zhai family and have had such a connection with Zhai Yaozu, why are you afraid of the Han family?"

Xiao Jingxi's voice is very nice and tepid. He always speaks with a special rhythm, which can be bewitching people's hearts at critical moments and wake people up from their emotions.

Ren Yaoqi raised his eyes and looked at the Luo Pozi who had come back to his senses from his memories.

"I was not good-looking when I was young and stupid. Young grandma didn't dislike me, and asked me to follow Li Niang and the others to read. When we were old, Young grandma arranged for Li Niang to serve the uncle and promised to be carried as a concubine as long as she gave birth to a child. Chun'er was accused of giving birth to a son of the owner of the spice shop. Young grandma also found someone for me, the only son of the kitchen manager. She also said that when Chun'er and I got married, she would carry me a first-class maid to let us get married. She is a good person." Mr. Luo said softly, "It's a pity that the Liao people came, disrupted all their paces, and wasted her painstaking efforts to plan for us."

Mrs. Luo sighed, very lightly, but it made people feel a little sad: "We were scared when we heard such words, and we didn't dare to confront our uncle. We dared to come out after our uncle and his wife left. We didn't say anything and hid with the young master. Regarding where to go, there was a difference in our opinions. Li Niang said she wanted to take the young master to Jiangnan to return to the young master's home. Chun'er and I grew up in the Zhai family, and we hoped to wait for the Zhai family members to come back to uphold justice for the young master, although we had heard that other tribesmen of the Zhai family encountered them when they moved south.

The Liao people were all dead. But when they saw that King Yanbei was about to be called back, Chun'er and I didn't want to stay away from our hometown easily. After all, no one knew what the situation of the young grandma's family was. Moreover, on the way, we were just a few of us retarded girls and the young master were afraid that it would be unsafe. The young master was still there, and if the Zhai family members came back, he would have to stay in the Zhai family. However, Chun'er and I were very persistent. Chun'er and I thought about it for a long time, and finally, it was worth it to take some risks for the young grandma to go to the young grandma's family to bring reinforcements. But something happened at this moment."

Luo Pozi said this and his voice became more and more trembling: "That day, Chun'er and I went out to make food. When we came back, we found that my uncle and his wife had come with people. We were about to go back and notify Li Niang and the young master, but we didn't expect that they had already escaped. Chun'er and I also hid, and our uncle and his wife had to return without success. We knew that they must be here to find the young master, so we went out to find Li Niang and the others. Because we lived together for a long time, we all knew each other a little. The next day, Chun'er and I were finally

After finding Li Niang, Ma Ma Liu didn't know where she went, but the young master got sick and had a high fever. When Li Niang saw us, she didn't say anything. She calmly told me to go outside to get some water and let Chun'er leave a fire. The place where the water was drawn was a little far away. When I walked back after I fetched the water, I found Li Niang standing not far behind me waiting for me. I was a little surprised and was about to come forward to ask her why she left the young master and ignored it, but she saw something dripping from her sleeve, which was blood. I didn't know at the time

He was a little scared and stopped. Unexpectedly, Li Niang suddenly rushed towards me. She was holding a dagger in her hand, and the dagger was still dripping with blood. I tried my best to dodge, but Li Niang seemed crazy. She called us ungrateful and said she wanted to kill us. I was confused at first, but later I realized that Li Niang suspected that we had leaked the whereabouts of the young master, so she wanted to kill us. Because I had done some rough work when I was young, Li Niang had been with the young grandma since I was young, and she was not as strong as me.

So after I was injured by her arm, I ran away. I only remembered that Chun'er did not come out. Looking back on the blood-dropping knife in Li Niang's hand, I felt more and more frightened. Chun'er is my sister, my dear sister, I can't leave her alone, so I decided to go back to find Chun'er secretly. Maybe she escaped by chance, but when I returned to my original place, I only saw Chun'er's body. She fell to the ground and was stabbed in her chest three times, and died with her eyes open. Li Niang and the young master disappeared."

"I'm very scared, afraid that Li Niang would come back to kill me suddenly. After burying Chun'er, she hid and did not dare to show up again. I kept thinking that Chun'er and I did not reveal the young master's hiding place. Li Niang couldn't, so it was only Mama Liu. Since the uncle appeared, Mama Liu has not shown up. I don't want to take the blame, so I want to confront Mama Liu. I remembered that Mama Liu had a daughter who married Lijiazhuang not far from Baihe Town. She once told me that she wanted to join my daughter and son-in-law, so I went to Lijiazhuang."

Madam Liu avoided her eyes, and her old voice seemed to suppress the fearful emotions: "Madam Liu did go back to her daughter and son-in-law, but I never thought I would see that kind of scene again. Madam Liu, including her daughter and son-in-law, all six were dead. There was also a three-year-old child and a baby who was still in cradle. The dagger that Li Niang used to kill me was inserted into the chest of the three-year-old child. I finally realized that Li Niang was actually crazy. Madam Liu and Chun'er were both dead, and no one could prove my innocence again, but even if someone could prove Li Niang would not listen. I was very scared and scared, and I always dreamed that Li Niang was standing by my bed with a dagger in my hand. But since then, I have never seen Li Niang or the young master again."

"I always wondered, how could Li Niang take good care of the young master like that? The child is always simple, he will learn whatever you teach him. With Li Niang's teachings, the young master will definitely have hatred in his heart, and he will want to take revenge. I am a fear of death and don't want to get into these grievances anymore. Not long after, the King of Yanbei really fought back, and many people who had escaped came back one after another. I was afraid that Li Niang would not leave, so I hid in the countryside for a few years to eat. Later I heard that a lot of people were born.

When the village was asked for someone to work, I found a farmer to stay. But I didn't expect that after a few years, the farmer was eventually bought by the uncle's house. However, I had signed a contract to sell my body and could not leave. At that time, the uncle had already become different from the past. He made a fortune with the mines in his hand and became a newcomer in Yanbei. Fortunately, there were many villages in their family and the masters generally did not show up. I stayed there for some time and stayed for so many years."

When Mrs. Luo said this, the outline of the matter had become roughly clear.

I guess the uncle's surname is Ren.

Ren Yaoqi pulled the corner of his mouth, his smile mocked and bitter. It turned out that the selfishness of the Ren family was not without reason, but it turned out that it was rotten from the root.

Ren Yaoqi no longer knew what kind of mood to face it. At this moment, she even felt that it was appropriate for Zhai Yaozu to come back to revenge the Ren family. The debts owed must be repaid, and the blood debts should be paid for.

Unfortunately, her great-grandfather and great-grandmother had long been dead, but her parents had never done anything bad. Even if they had to pay the debts and sons, they could not be counted on them.

The so-called truth that has troubled two lives is spread out in front of me so bloody, but it makes people feel powerless.

"Is the Ren family's current house the Zhai family's ancestral home back then?" Ren Yaoqi's voice was still faint.

Mrs. Luo glanced at Ren Yaoqi, then nodded.

"I turned my hand twice in the middle of the house, so no one mentioned the Zhai family."

Ren Yaoqi was almost applauding the courage and greed of her great-grandfather. He killed everyone and dared to live in other people's ancestral homes. No wonder the Ren family ended up like that.

In her opinion, the Ren family's house has good feng shui and is very good, but not everyone has the life to live in. The Zhai family and the Ren family in the previous life are the lessons of the past.
