Chapter 33 The Process of Counterattack (Part )
Fat people generally fall into two extremes: either they are as gentle as an old cow, or they are as impatient and violent as fat meat.

Master Cheng belonged to the latter. When he got angry, the sweat on his cheeks seeped into the grooves created by his excess skin. He looked at the broken porcelain and sharp edges all over the floor, and for a moment, he couldn't help wanting to scratch He's face with the broken porcelain pieces!

A fair and beautiful woman is like the medicine that seals the throat, the monster in a ruined temple, and the ghost of the Zhongyuan Festival. She hides an evil heart under her beautiful appearance!

Shan Yue was sensitive to Master Cheng's emotions, and cried at the right time: "Master, I didn't lie a word! If you don't believe me, you can go ask Master Liu."

Oh, Lord Liu——

He has registered with the old prefect. This face and this person cannot be ruined.

The rising rage of Master Cheng was suppressed by an invisible giant hand. It did not melt away, but instead lurked secretly in a dark corner, waiting for the right moment for the flint and stone to meet and the rock to form magma.

"What else did they do?" Master Cheng asked with forbearance.

Shan Yue lowered his head and dared not speak.

"Just say it!" Master Cheng shouted angrily, "I am still the master of this family!"

Shan Yue stammered, "Except for the moment when Master Liu showed up, the rest of the time, Madam and Master Liu were either blocked by the screen or in the room, and no one could see them - what they said, what they did, what they received and received. How would I know?"

Shan Yue's helpless tears rolled down her cheeks.

What is being received or given privately?

Sachet? Jade pendant? Silk handkerchief? Or silver? ?

What else did the Liu family think of him except as a rag-collecting bastard?!

Did the Liu family secretly give money to the Duan family? This gave that woman the confidence, so a few days ago, the Duan family dared to walk away in front of him with ease! !
Unfortunately, Duan's boxes were as tight as a turtle's mouth, and they were hidden tightly, so there was no chance of prying them open!

Master Cheng's face turned the color of liver due to depression.

"Get out." Master Cheng squeezed out a hoarse voice from his throat.

Shan Yue hurriedly left the main hall.

Huangqi had left his post long ago, but was still waiting in the corridor, holding onto Gao Zhu. Seeing Shanyue coming out in one piece, Huangqi couldn't help showing regret on his face. He felt that his time was wasted, and he might as well use the time he was waiting to work hard for his future.

Shanyue saw Huangqi, but couldn't hide his emotion: "I thought you had been waiting for me!" As he said this, he held Huangqi's clothes as if he had found his backbone: "When the master gets angry, I get scared. The few hasty conversations made me feel like I have endured several lifetimes."

Shanyue led Huangqi out and wiped his eyes: "Although the wife has a good temper, the master is a firecracker. At least thanks to the wife's pampering, your life is not too difficult, right?"

Pamper her?

Huangqi almost wanted to laugh out loud.

Yes, I do spoil her. I am spoiling her to death!

Huangqi completely lost interest in playing around with Shanyue, and wanted to throw Shanyue away completely. Just as he moved his arm, he heard a weak voice: "But, I heard from them that the madam wants you to replace the original uncle's daughter and marry to the northwest? - Are you willing?"

Huangqi's anger rushed to her brain. The sadness and grievances of the past few days made her pull her hand away suddenly: "You little bitch! You look honest, but your heart is dirtier than dirt! How dare you use this matter to annoy me - I tell you, don't mock me! At worst, we can fight to the death, and I will rot in the Cheng family, and you can forget about dreaming of being a wife in peace!"

Huangqi was furious, his chest heaving, as if he wanted to spit out all the bad air.

She thought Shanyue would give in and cry, but she saw Shanyue, who had lost his balance, slowly stand up, and calmly lower his head to adjust the corner of his clothes. A sneer escaped from the corner of Shanyue's lips.

"What's the point of you fighting to the death with me? I didn't ask you to marry an octogenarian."

Under the dark corridor, Shan Yue slowly straightened his back, his eyes seemed to be flashing with fire: "You idiot, you are in a desperate situation, trapped beasts still fight, but you still only know how to be cruel and hateful - take your brain out of your heels and use it!"

Shanyue had only been in the Cheng family for half a month, and everyone felt that the simple and honest He had become a different person with a fierce look in his eyes and eyebrows.

"Think carefully about why Madam asked Zhou Li Niang to go home in the first place!"

Shan Yue looked towards the southeast where Chuihua Gate was located. "A little Huanglian could help Zhou Li Niang to secretly pass items around Chuihua Gate. You have been the number one person beside the Madam for five years. Chuihua Gate is as leaky as a sieve. Can't you just go in and out as you please?!"

Astragalus is like being hit hard on the back of the head with a club!

"According to the law, merchants cannot buy and sell maids, and the Cheng family is not qualified to support a family and have children! You are different from the girl in the embroidery building. Your family has relatives in the city, and you are connected with the outside world. Your parents will quickly find a man who is engaged to you, show you the proof of receiving the bride price, and insist that you are already engaged. Then the madam will have no choice but to give up! If you don't want to give up the business in the northwest, it's up to you to find a way! You can find a human trafficker to buy a girl, or find a prostitute to make up the number, you can get away with it!"

Shan Yue shouted angrily: "At worst, if you are willing to destroy yourself, you can climb into the master's bed or confess yourself with a wooden stick. Can the lady send a woman who has lost her virginity to the bed of a powerful person?"

Shan Yue sneered, "You clearly had Zhou Li Niang's good plan to escape, but you just didn't know how to use it. You allowed yourself to be trapped in the square backyard of the Cheng family, and you didn't even want to fight! Why did you bother to tell me such cruel words about destroying both you and your enemy! - You are just a bug who has accepted his fate, so don't pretend to be a chaste bear!"

Huangqi's head was buzzing, as if he had entered a spider's carefully woven web. His knees went weak, his feet became unstable, and he almost fell to the ground.

Yes, yes, yes!

She didn't even think of resisting! Besides resentment, it was hatred - her parents were different from the parents of the girls in the embroidery building! Although they were honest farmers, they were unwilling to let their daughter jump into the fire pit! Even if she was forced to jump, she should at least take advantage of the night, find a gap, and have a good discussion with her parents after leaving Cheng Mansion!

It’s all the wife’s fault!

She was completely fooled by the lady's words "You will definitely have a happy ending", and even with the enemy at the gates, she refused to wake up!
Huangqi turned around in a daze, his steps unsteady, and stumbled out.

Shanyue took a deep look at Huangqi's back, then turned around and looked for Huangzhi, saying, "If you want to be the head maid of the main hall, you need to pay an extra two taels of silver a month - and then you have to keep a close eye on the Chuihua Gate tonight!"

After saying this, Shanyue turned around and went back to the embroidery building.

At the time of Si, there was a commotion in the southeast corner. The sharp voices of maids and old women echoed over the Cheng residence one after another. Soon, a group of servants from the outer courtyard came to the embroidery building in a mighty manner, bowed their heads, said "excuse me", and went into each room to search around.

Miss Wang Er was so angry that she whispered in Shanyue's ear: "If that fat kid wanted to search Duan's house, he could have searched it! But he had to use everyone in the house as a raft!"

Shan Yue curled her lips and smiled: "The maidservant beside the Madam disguised herself and went out in the middle of the night. The guards at the Chuihua Gate were not in good condition, and the master was furious. This just gave him a reason to search the mansion. Isn't it too obvious to search only the Madam's room? Naturally, he had to drag everyone into the water, so that he could open the boxes in the Madam's room in a logical way."

While Miss Wang Er was talking to Shanyue, the servant who came to search opened the box in the east wing and took out a hidden painting and held it up to the light.

In the painting, there are two men, one on the left and one on the right.

　After it is put on the shelves, the minimum number of words is 3,000, and we strive to reach 4,000 words a day. This is a very stressful number of words for A Yuan, but because this book has changed the style and tone compared to previous publications, it is an adventure and a change.

　　A Yuan also hopes that book lovers who are used to reading light-hearted novels like Yizhizi can try reading this new book.

　　thank you all!
