It was late at night, and the rainstorm had stopped at this time. Only some scattered ticking sounds could be heard. It should be that the water from the eaves was falling and falling into the puddles.

At this moment, many people had already fallen asleep, and only two servants were left in the hall watching the night by the bonfire.

In order to cheer up in the evening, the two servants began to chat.

"I want to tell you that scholar doesn't look like a human being. When we were together, this person took a few tricks to prevent us from getting on again."

"No, Wang Feng was touched by the scholar with one punch and fainted. He knew how this scholar had such great strength when he looked so thin."

As the two of them said, they looked in the direction of Li Si secretly. Seeing that Li Si was still sleeping, they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and at the same time, they lowered their voices and spoke.

"I'm really scared to speak of it. I laughed at him when we lived next to him." A middle-aged servant sighed.

Another younger servant, who was much more relaxed, said in a teasing tone: "Fortunately, this man doesn't care about villains, otherwise our convoy will be in great trouble. My poor old mother will have a son who will die for her."

However, although this person had a teasing tone, he still felt like he had survived the disaster.

The middle-aged servant sneered and said, "Who doesn't know that your mother has given birth to four or five children? She has you or not. If she really cares about you, she will not sell you to the Zhou Mansion."

When the middle-aged man said this, the young servant was a little unhappy and snorted, "Just like my family, if my mother doesn't sell me to the Zhou family, my family will not be able to hold on."

Speaking of this, he couldn't help but sigh. His family was indeed almost unable to support it, so his mother gritted her teeth and sold him to the Zhou Mansion, and then used the money sold to him to support his four younger brothers and sisters.

In fact, he had no hatred for his parents. After all, if he had not sold him, their family would not know how many people would be able to survive.

But it was because his mother gritted her teeth and sold him that they all survived. He admired his mother very much. Every time he gave him a monthly payment, he would bring some to his family to subsidize the cost of his family.

When the middle-aged servant saw him say this, he didn't know how to respond. He knew the situation in this family and changed the subject.

"Do you know why our master is going to Zetian Mansion so hurry this time? I'm still confused."

Hearing him ask, the young servant smiled, then looked around, lowered his voice and said mysteriously, "You don't know this, right? This time, the master is going to return to his ancestral land to worship his ancestors."

"Ancestral Land?" The middle-aged servant showed a look of surprise on his face, and then said, "Didn't our master always start in Mengting County? Why is the ancestral land in Zetian Prefecture?"

Seeing his surprised look, the young servant immediately smiled, obviously very satisfied with the middle-aged servant's performance.

He showed a proud look on his face, and said mysteriously: "It's not surprising that you don't know. Many people in this mansion don't know."

"That is, I have been in the mansion for a long time, otherwise I wouldn't know. This was something I heard by accident when the master and the others talked. If we say that our master's ancestors are of great origin."

"Oh? Then tell me." The middle-aged servant showed an expectant look, obviously very curious about this matter.

"Actually, our grandfather's generation made a fortune in Zetian Mansion. Our grandfather is an amazing person. He became the magistrate of Beiqing Mansion in the 31st year of Yonglong and became the prefect of Beiqing Mansion in the second year of Tongsheng."

When he heard the words of the young servant, the middle-aged servant cried out: "How is this possible?"

The middle-aged servant's call frightened the young servant and whispered: "What's the name? Can you afford to wake up the master?"

As he said that, the young servant looked to the outside, and saw that the outside was sleeping soundly, he breathed a sigh of relief.

The middle-aged servant also showed an embarrassing look on his face, and he scratched his head and said, "Aren't I scared by this? Also, your words are too false. Even if our official in Mengting County is not very powerful, why is his grandfather the prefect?"

Seeing that the middle-aged servant suspected his words, the young servant looked angry on his face, but after thinking about it, he said: "This matter is more secret, and I can't talk nonsense everywhere."

When the middle-aged servant heard this, his face became even more curious. His eyes rolled and he said in a playful tone: "You can't just make up this, you're using this to deceive me."

This young servant was a little annoyed before. When he heard the middle-aged servant's joking tone, he became even more angry. He said angrily: "You have been in Zhou Mansion for several years. Don't you know that I am a human being? Isn't I an exaggerated person?"

Hearing the young servant's words, the middle-aged servant was delighted, knowing that this man had already taken the bait, and sighed in his heart that this man was indeed young.

But the middle-aged servant's face remained unchanged and said in a giggle: "You know that I have only been in Zhou Mansion for a few years. How can I know that you are not an exaggerated person in such a short time? After all, what you said just now is too fantasy."

Hearing the middle-aged servant's words, the young servant's face became a little ugly, and then hesitated a little. Finally, he snorted as if he had made some decision, "Don't look down on others, I really have to tell you today."

"But you better not spread these things randomly or say I said it, otherwise you won't know when you die."

When the middle-aged servant heard this, he was a little confused, but he was still a little curious and thought that the kitten would scratch his heart. If he didn't figure it out, he would probably feel uncomfortable.

"Actually, the generation of the master's grandfather was indeed a big deal. But he did something that caused a sensation at that time and also made him in a desperate situation."

Seeing that the middle-aged servant was still trying to listen, the young servant started to speak helplessly.

"If you want to say that the old man at that time was already perfect, his governance ability was also very strong. Under his rule, Beiqing Mansion was living better and better, but this old man had one problem, that is, greed!"
