Jiang Yun's mood improved.

after eating.

Ling'er suddenly remembered something she had forgotten to tell Jiang Yun last night.

"Dexian, Deyue, you two pack your things, your mother and father have something to say to each other."

She asked Jiang Dexian and Jiang Deyue to clear the dishes.

"OK."

Jiang Dexian and Jiang Deyue immediately nodded in agreement.

When they were children, the two of them often helped with chores around the house.

This is a trivial matter.

"Mother, will we have rice like this for lunch?"

Jiang De'an was still not satisfied and ate greedily, clinging to the bowl with the leftovers, unwilling to let go.

"Yes," Ling'er said with a smile. "Give the bowl to your older brother and go play somewhere else."

"Big brother, here you go!" Jiang De'an put down the bowl. "I'm going to go play with my cousin Minglong."

The taste of Lingmi rice was not just something that made Jiang De'an crave.

The same applies to Jiang Defan and Jiang Deping.

Upon hearing that they would be eating spirit rice at noon, they happily went off to play.

It's time to play around, but later we'll have to study and learn to read.

After the three children went to play, Jiang Dexian and Jiang Deyue cleaned up the dishes.

Ling'er then looked at Jiang Yun and said slowly, "Husband, there's something I forgot to tell you last night."

"What is it?" Jiang Yun asked.

"I heard that the landlord's eldest son, Fang Yilong, has died." Ling'er emphasized the word "died".

"When did this happen?"

Jiang Yun wasn't particularly surprised.

After all, Fang Yilong is over seventy years old.

To have lived this long is already considered a long life.

Even if one were to retire in a place like Qingshan Lake.

Even a mortal cannot escape death.

"I don't know either. I heard from my mother that Fang Yilong's body has been transported home from Qingshan Lake."

Ling'er explained, "Fang Yilong's sons have rushed back from all over to keep vigil for him. I estimate that the funeral will be held in a few days."

"The area around Qingshan Lake is full of sacred mountains, occupied by cultivation sects," Jiang Yun said disdainfully. "He wants to be buried in Qingshan Lake, but it won't be that easy."

There are many cultivation sects in Qingshan Lake.

The surrounding mountains are all under the jurisdiction of various sects.

How could we let an ordinary person be buried in the mountains?

Fang Yilong died at Qingshan Lake and could only return to his roots, being buried in Qingshan Village.

He doesn't deserve to be buried in a sacred place like Qingshan Lake.

"Some time ago, you broke through to the sixth level of Qi Refining in the mountains. I heard all this from my mother."

Ling'er suddenly asked with a worried expression, "But I wonder if Fang Yilong's younger brother, Fang Yixun, has returned after his death?"

"That needs to be confirmed." Jiang Yun pondered for a moment. "I'll go to the market later to buy some things and check if the landlord's family is holding a funeral."

"Hmm." Ling'er nodded and reminded him, "If Fang Yixun returns, husband, you must be careful and make thorough preparations."

"Haha, great!"

Jiang Yun laughed. Ling'er now seemed even more cautious and wary than he was.

He said, "If Fang Yixun has already established his foundation, I'm afraid he won't be able to come back. If he hasn't established his foundation and has returned home, my husband wouldn't have chosen to make a move at this time. You can rest assured."

……

Upon learning of Fang Yilong's death, the family is currently in mourning.

Jiang Yun led Jiang Dexian and Jiang Deyue to the market.

He planned to buy some good vegetables to eat with the rice.

You can go to the market.

They found the market deserted, all the doors were closed, and white silk ribbons were hanging on the doors.

"Father, what's going on?" Jiang Dexian asked. "Who died, causing the entire market to be in mourning?"

"I'm afraid it's the landlord's family," Jiang Deyue said. "Isn't this market the landlord's domain?"

"Let's go, let's go take a look at the landlord's house."

Jiang Yun shook her head.

I thought to myself, "The landlord's family is quite domineering."

During the mourning period, markets are not allowed to open.

The landlord's house was not far from the market.

Jiang Yun and his two companions soon arrived at a place not far from the Fang family mansion and stopped to watch.

A large crowd was waiting in front of the Fang residence, ready to enter and pay their respects.

These people were dressed in finery and carrying gifts.

They are probably all from wealthy families, or officials holding important positions in the imperial court.

Two squads of soldiers stood beneath the walls of the Fang family compound.

Judging from their clothing, these people were not ordinary soldiers working in Yongning County.

They are probably from the imperial army.

Fang Yilong's third son is Fang Likun, and his fourth son is Fang Lipeng.

They are said to have served in the imperial army.

These two troop units must have been brought back by Fang Likun and Fang Lipeng.

He was able to lead a team of about ten soldiers out of the military camp.

This is enough to show that Fang Likun and Fang Lipeng also held considerable official positions in the military.

At this moment, a carriage arrived and stopped in front of the Fang residence.

The carriage stopped, and two people stepped out.

As soon as the two men stepped off the carriage, those waiting to offer their condolences bowed in respect.

"Greetings to Magistrate Cao and County Commandant Lin."

Magistrate Cao and County Lieutenant Lin nodded and walked straight up the steps of the Fangfu Mansion.

Condolences are given according to social status.

The two of them did not need to wait outside.

"Magistrate Cao has come to offer his condolences!"

A servant shouted loudly in front of the Fang residence.

A short while later, Fang Lihong came out of the Fang residence to greet them and invited Magistrate Cao and County Lieutenant Lin into his home.

As for the other people who came to pay their respects, they waited patiently in front of the door.

"Hmph, how impressive!"

Not far away, Jiang Dexian let out a soft hum.

He naturally disliked the landlord's family.

After all, half of the hardships I endured as a child were due to the landlords' oppression of the tenants.

The other half was that his father and mother deliberately made him suffer!

The matter of the immortal was kept from him for fifteen years!

"But who in his family died?" Jiang Dexian asked, puzzled. "The magistrate came to offer condolences so early; he must have rushed here from the city before dawn. He's really being very attentive."

"Is there even a question? It must be Fang Yilong." Jiang Deyue said with absolute certainty, "Fang Yilong had four sons. His second son, Fang Liping, is a high-ranking official in Huaizhou. How could the county magistrate not come to offer condolences upon hearing of Fang Yilong's passing?"

"Deyue is right, the dead man is indeed Fang Yilong." Jiang Yun looked at Jiang Dexian, "Dexian, learn from your sister, think things through more."

"Yes, Father."

Jiang Dexian readily agreed.

"Let's go home, there's nothing to see."

After observing for a while.

Jiang Yun then went home.

After all, this way, they still couldn't find out any news about Fang Yixun.

Even if you go to the Fang residence under the pretext of offering condolences, they won't pay you any attention.

So many wealthy and influential families came to pay their respects and waited outside the mansion, not to mention Jiang Yun.

Jiang Yun, unaware of Fang Yixun's specific whereabouts, decided to wait until Fang Yilong was buried before taking action against the Fang family.

This is not a good time.

arrive home.

Ling'er stepped forward and asked, "Husband, how is it?"

"The Fang family is currently holding a mourning ceremony, and many high-ranking officials and dignitaries have come to pay their respects. The county magistrate has also come."

Jiang Yun entered the room and said.

He thought to himself that the landlord's family's status in the secular world was indeed extraordinary.

Compared to them, the Jiang family is like heaven and earth.

However, Jiang Yun didn't care at all.

No matter how high one's status is in the mundane world.

So what?

The Jiang family can now easily ride roughshod over the landlords.
