    Rong Dingkun¡¯s relaxed face twitched and said: ¡°It¡¯s not impossible for her to want this. As long as she can keep it secret, give her a dowry and get rid of her.¡±

    Rong Jiashang couldn't laugh or cry, "Dad, don't hide it from me anymore. Tell me what happened back then. Otherwise, I'll ask Uncle Zhao. Although he will blame everything on you, at least I can just leave it alone."  Piece together the truth of that year.¡±

    "He?" Rong Dingkun snorted coldly, "Zhao Hua'an is restless, don't believe what he says."

    "I know that he has been corrupt and has great ambitions. He wants to replace you." Rong Jiashang said, "But dad, he has all the details about you. It would be easy for him to target you and the Rong family. But because I don't know  Love, I don¡¯t even know how to defend against it. Know yourself and your enemy, and you will never be in danger. Dad, don¡¯t put me at a disadvantage just for the sake of face.¡±

    Rong Dingkun closed his eyes and remained silent amidst the noisy storytelling. Every line on his face drooped, and his whole face looked old and tired.  Although he is just over fifty, he looks like an old man in his sixties.

    Finally, he spoke slowly: "My mother died when I was a young boy. I was living at the dock, but I was almost sold to Nanyang to work as a laborer. Zhao Huaan was on the same boat as me at the time. We helped each other escape and formed a friendship.  Brother."

    Rong Jiashang listened silently, took out his cigarette, lit it, and took a deep breath.

    "The two of us started hanging out at various docks, buying and selling foreign goods, and doing some chores for others to make some living money." Rong Dingkun leaned on the bedside pillow, his eyes straightened, and he was lost in memories.  "Then we met Ah He, the real Rong Dingkun. It was a coincidence that we were neither relatives nor friends, but we looked very much alike. Everyone said that we were destined. He was an honest man with a warm heart.  He is loyal and kind-hearted. I lost money in business and he paid me back. We became sworn brothers because of this."

    "Then what?" Rong Jiashang asked.

    Rong Dingkun smiled and said, "Being nice to you for a while may not necessarily mean that I will be nice to you forever. Later, I had problems with my business turnover. If I didn't pay back the money, Ma Laojiu would have his hand chopped off. And Ahe happened to be good at that time.  I won a lottery worth 1,000 yuan. I asked him to borrow money. He had lent me money once before, but he refused to borrow it again this time!"

    Speaking of this, Rong Dingkun looked angry.  More than twenty years later, he still resented the incident.

    "He obviously has money, why didn't he lend me a loan, but just watched my hand be chopped off?" Rong Dingkun gnashed his teeth as he tugged on the quilt, "He also lectured me in turn, saying that I was too aggressive and unruly.  Ha! We are all people who are trying to make a living at the dock. Who is really clean? I just made a miscalculation and took some goods from Ma Laojiu, but I sold them all"

    Rong Jia frowned.  Rong Dingkun must have secretly taken the goods from his previous family and sold them privately, but he messed up.  The family found out that he couldn't afford to pay for the money, so Ah He was impatient to clean up the mess for him and refused to borrow any more money.  Therefore, Rong Dingkun, who was forced into a desperate situation, could only

    "I was forced!" Rong Dingkun roared unwillingly, "I originally just wanted to steal his lottery ticket and collect the money so that I could return it to Ma Laojiu. Unexpectedly, Ah He woke up and wanted to steal the lottery ticket.  He also scolded me very unpleasantly. I just wanted him to shut up, I just wanted him to shut up"

    Rong Dingkun opened his eyes blankly, looking at the emptiness ahead.  Rong Jiashang remained motionless, the cigarette burned down to the butt, and long ash fell on the armrest of the sofa.

    Rong Jiashang changed his sitting position and asked, "What next?"

    Rong Dingkun laughed and said: "Then what else can we do? Our Qin family is an ancestral mason. Repairing the roof and plastering the walls are just housekeeping skills. At that time, the building was full of people, the dock was busy, and people were busy at any time day or night.  Someone was moving around. I didn¡¯t want to risk transporting Ahe¡¯s body out, so I simply sealed him in the wall, and then pretended to be him and told the neighbors in the middle of the night that he was going back to his hometown to visit relatives. The neighbors just thought he was gone. Zhao Huaan and I then moved  We stayed at Ahe's house. No one noticed this."

    "Does Zhao Huaan know that you killed Ahe?"

    "He happened to come into the house and saw it. He helped me seal Ah He into the wall. You know, a dead person is much heavier than when he was alive. How come I can't drag the body up alone.  "When Rong Dingkun recalled that time, he still couldn't help showing a look of fear, and the loose flesh on his cheeks trembled slightly.

    "Then, I pretended to be Rong Dingkun and received the lottery ticket. It was then that I learned that Ahe had written a letter to his family, telling them about his winning, and asked his wife and children to come to Shanghai to find him. I and  Zhao Hua'an discussed that no matter how similar Ah He and I are, we are not the same person after all, and we cannot let Ah He's wife and parents recognize me."

    Rong Jiashang couldn't help but hold his breath. Hearing Rong Dingkun's face show a stern expression, he sneered: "SoMy sister is still young and has a long time to come"

    "Why is the future so long?" the second aunt smiled bitterly, "Master is already like this, how can he give me another son? Without a son, how can I talk about the future?"

    The aunt said: "It's not like you haven't done anything yet. If you raise your two daughters well and marry a good son-in-law, how can they not be filial to you in the future?"

    The second aunt sneered, "Who knows what benefits the master would marry his child to some unreliable family!"

    The aunt lowered her voice and said: "Sister, you also know that the master is dying. Now the eldest young master is in charge of the family. Naturally, the eldest young master has the final say in the girls' marriage. You and the eldest young master have never had any bad relations in the past, so hurry up now  It's a good time to please. Although the eldest young master has a cold temper, he still cares about his younger brothers and sisters and will not treat your two daughters badly."

    After hearing this, the second aunt felt that it made sense. She felt like she saw light in the darkness, found her direction in life again, and finally regained her soul.

    ??A night of hustle and bustle, the stars flow, and the splendid prosperity is fleeting.

    The lights dimmed and the lanterns were taken off their branches.  There were even discarded lanterns that fell into the muddy water. The cleaners picked them up with bamboo pliers and threw them into the trash can.

    And Feng Shizhen also ended her long vacation and was picked up by Meng Xu'an in an inconspicuous car at the Meng Mansion.

    "How did you explain your father-in-law's residence when you moved out?" Meng Xu'an asked.

    "I said Li'er needed a personal assistant." Feng Shizhen sat down at the dining table, took off his gloves, and poured himself a glass of soy milk. "My eldest brother also spoke for me, and my parents agreed that I would not return during this period.  Home."

    Meng Xu'an pushed a piece of hot pan-fried pancake in front of her, "Your elder brother is quite open-minded. Is he interested in politics?"

    "Why do you ask that?" Feng Shizhen was puzzled.

    Meng Xuan said: "My people said that he had close contacts with some political activists after returning to China. Did he tell you what political parties he joined?"

    "We have not discussed this matter." Feng Shizhen felt a little ashamed. He had been busy with revenge recently and lacked care for his brother. "Is there something wrong?"

    "Not yet." Meng Xu'an said, "If you are worried, I will have someone keep an eye on him and tell you if anything happens."

    "Thank you, Master Qi." Feng Shizhen said.

    "Mr. Yang has arrived." The footman came to report.

    Yang Xiucheng strode in with his briefcase and said: "The armies of Marshal Zhang and Marshal Cao exchanged fire at Dongpoping at seven o'clock this morning and started fighting."

    "After all, the New Year is over." Feng Shizhen sneered, "The New Year has just begun and it's so prosperous. This year will definitely be very lively." #####(Remember this site's website address: www.hlnovel.com
