Chapter 69: Door-to-door Crusade
Wu Qingyuan has been hiding in the shadows for a long time, after suspecting that Jiang Zhu has a problem, he began to pay attention to the other party, today Jiang Zhu hurriedly ran out, he naturally wanted to follow out and take a look, capture the thief first in order to capture the king, and finding the main enemy is his style of doing things all along.
But he really didn’t expect such a coincidence, and as soon as he followed up today, he listened to everything that happened, and without him interrogating, Jiang Zhu himself explained the matter to Lin Shugen, who caught him.
“Boss Wu…”
Jiang Zhu didn’t expect to see Wu Qingyuan here, his face turned even whiter for a while, and he couldn’t help but take a step back and hide behind Lin Shugen, being caught by Wu Qingyuan is much more serious than being caught by Lin Shugen, Lin Shugen is a flickering obstacle, but Boss Wu is a hard stubble, can the other party let him go?
“Take me to see your son, if what you say is true, you will cooperate with me to help you, if it is false, we will see you in the government.”
Wu Qingyuan didn’t say much and directly expressed his intentions.
He is not a person with excessive sympathy, and he does not calculate with Jiang Zhu because he is just an insignificant pawn in this battle, and it is useless to lock him up, and the main purpose of this matter is the Qian family.
At this point, Jiang Zhu also has no room for resistance and no choice, and finally, he can only bite the bullet and listen to Wu Qingyuan’s orders, take him to see his son prove the truth of his words, compared to Zhao Haisheng and others, he still believes Wu Qingyuan more- Boss Wu has always spoken truthfully, and he did not immediately arrest himself to go to the official mansion, which means that the other party did not intend to take his anger on him.
This time Jiang Zhu really didn’t lie, he made up so many lies before just to get to the Wu family, and now that things have been exposed, he doesn’t have to lie anymore.
Under his leadership, Wu Qingyuan and Lin Laogen followed out of Shiqiao Town, walked all the way out, and finally saw an old woman with gray hair and a cute little boy about seven or eight years old in a small wooden house in the back mountain in a remote village.
The has not seen his father for a long time, and the little boy sitting at the door reading saw Jiang Zhu coming, and immediately dropped his things with joy on his face and pounced on him and called “Dad”, and the old woman who heard the movement in the room also put down the needle and thread and walked out, smiled at him and shouted, “Xiao-Zhu is back”.
“Xiao Shitou, are you happy to see Daddy, have you read seriously? Did you listen to Grandma?”
Because he was afraid that his son would be exposed, in addition to sending silver and things, Jiang Zhu did not dare to come back, for fear of being seen and reported if he came more, he had not seen his son for several months, and for a while, he couldn’t care about Wu Qingyuan and others, holding his son and looking at him, he had nothing, he only had his son.
After seeing that he had hugged enough, he thanked the old woman next to him, this old woman was a lonely old woman, and he especially found this someone to help him raise his son.
When the short joy was over, he remembered Wu Qingyuan and Lin Shugen, and took his son to greet the two: “He is my son Xiao Shitou- Xiao Shitou, hurry up and greet them.”

“What an obedient child…..”
Lin Laogen likes children the most, looking at the child who is greeting him obediently in front of him, he likes it very much and quickly brought out the candy that he uses to coax Lin Tianbao and handed it over, this child is much more well-behaved than his family Tianbao. That Tianbao is too skinny.
But the child did not answer him, he still looked at Jiang Zhu to look for his father’s opinion, very sensible, until Jiang Zhu nodded, only then did he dare to take the sugar, and then thanked him before licking and eating.
“Boss Wu, whatever you want me to do, I only have one condition, you help me carry the Xiao Shitou to the account of a clean family registry.”
After a short meeting, Jiang Zhu was not verbose, and he also put forward his own conditions before doing things.
“Okay, then you will pack up your things now and take your son to the county magistrate to apply for a household registration.”
Wu Qingyuan looked around the shabby but extremely warm log cabin and nodded.
“Now, we will go to the prefecture?” Jiang Zhu didn’t understand a little, and he was a little naturally afraid of the county magistrate.
“It would be best to do so now.”
“Well, thank you, Boss Wu…..”
Jiang Zhu listened to the silence and thought for a few seconds to understand, and quickly nodded happily.
……………
The transaction has always been delivery and then payment, or the matter is done and then one would give silver, but Wu Qingyuan promised to open a household registration for Jiang Zhu’s son first, which risked Jiang Zhu’s remorse afterward, but if this matter is not done in advance, then Jiang Zhu will have a bigger mess when he does things for him.
Xiao Shitou is Jiang Zhu’s weakness and when the time comes to take Jiang Zhu to find the Qian family, the other party is bound to threaten Jiang Zhu that they will tell the child’s affairs, once it is revealed, Xiao Shitou that has been hidden for so many years will be taken away by the government, Jiang Zhu would only panic, and nothing could be done.
The matter of registering a household for Xiao-Shitou is difficult for Jiang Zhu, but for Wu Qingyuan, it is just a term of money.
According to the regulations of Xia Guo, a child from a birth like Xiao Shitou is generally doomed to a pariah status and a miserable life, and the only chance to change is to find a big man who pays a large sum of money to the child to remove the pariah status.
But this is almost impossible, those rich masters are not stupid, even if they really want to remove the children’s status, but it costs a lot of silver, people’s money is not blown by the wind, who is willing to sacrifice so much for a small one?
Jiang Zhu himself can’t get silver, so he can only hide the child all the time, and after he redeems himself and recovers the status of an ordinary person, he plans to take the child to hide in a distant place and start over.
Money is not everything, but most of the time the saying that, “money can make the devil run”, still works.
That night, Wu Qingyuan took Jiang Zhu and the child to the county overnight, said good things to the people in the Yamen, handed over the silver, and the problem of Jiang Zhu’s long-standing child’s account was easily solved.
Jiang Zhu cried with joy, holding his son, and he couldn’t help but cry for a while for the many years of grievances in his heart, before wiping away his tears and adjusting his mood to immediately help Wu Qingyuan do things, this time no matter what Boss Wu wants him to do, that is, he is willing to die.
Of course, Wu Qingyuan would not want him to die, he was not so ruthless, all he wanted was for Jiang Zhu to cooperate with him to go to the Qian Mansion to make trouble.
He now understands that this Qian family is tied to him, and there is also Zhao Haisheng, who has a feud with him, helping the Qian family do things, he and the Qian family will definitely not be able to reconcile in the future, the Qian family actually came up with poisoning his Amo’s small restaurant- such a heartless thing as killing people, then they have risen from business rivals to mortal enemies, and the Qian family will not be willing to leave him alive.
Of course, Wu Qingyuan also wants to kill the Qian family now, but this is not a troubled world without laws, the fist alone can’t solve the matter- the Qian family can be cleaned up, but the hungry camel is still bigger than the horse, and he can’t take down the other party for a while.
But this offense can’t be swallowed like this, other plans can be made in the future, and now he has to find a venue to come back!
Everything was handled, and during the gathering day of Shiqiao Town on the third day, when the entire Shiqiao Town was the most crowded, Wu Qingyuan ran to the gate of Qian Family with Jiang Zhu and eighteen slaves beating gongs and drums.
Yes, banging the gong and beating the drum, for fear that it will not attract attention, Wu Qingyuan specially prepared a gong and drum for the slaves to beat, accompanied by a side that said, ‘The Qian Mansion poisoned people’s lives, return justice to Wu Ji!’ The big banner walked all the way from home to the Qian’s door like a parade.
In this era, there is little entertainment, and the curiosity of the masses is very heavy, a look at this situation knows that there must be a good show to watch, all the people who have nothing to do with Wu Qingyuan’s crusade team followed, plus today is the market day, the flow of people in the town is several times more than usual, a group of people watching the excitement made the entire gate of the Qian Family surrounded by people.
Jiang Zhu also saw the opportunity to act, and when he arrived at the gate of Qian Mansion when he saw Old Master Qian come out, he knelt on the ground without saying a word and began to howl, seemingly begging for mercy, but in fact, he shook out all the things that the Qian family bought and said that they wanted to harm people.
It doesn’t matter how you say this, as soon as the surrounding masses heard it, they immediately covered their mouths and exploded.
“What? Poisoned? Oh heavens, yesterday my little grandson just wanted to go to Wu Ji to eat that bowl cake, if this really happens, my grandson will… Ouch, damn the black heart of a rich family!”
“That’s right, fortunately, Boss Wu found out, I heard that Wu Ji recently came out with a new dish called cold noodles, the two of us next door only went to eat yesterday, and we came back and said that it was delicious, I’m still drooling, I still want to take my wife to taste it”
“Yes, if Wu Ji really has an accident with their food, it will definitely suffer together with the department store of a shop, but I have been wanting the perfume for a long time, and the points I saved for a long time are waiting to be exchanged, if Wu Ji seals the shop, I have saved it in vain, this Qian family are really damnable!”
The surrounding people are very angry, now the things in Wu Ji Department Store can be described as the trend in the hearts of the townspeople in Shiqiao Town, they can buy an overseas product that everyone has never seen in the shop, and it is as foreign as the mainlanders in the north and west.
There is also Wu Ji’s restaurant, there are not many varieties, but each of them can make people drool, in short, Wu Ji is now in everyone’s hearts, which is also good, who wants Wu Ji to close the door, everyone is the first to disagree!
The surrounding crowd was very indignant, Jiang Zhu saw this and performed even harder, waiting to shake off the bad things of the Qian family, not waiting for Old Master Qian to quibble, and turned around and continued to cry to the crowd.
“Woo, the Qian family has no conscience, not a person, they threatened me with my son, they obviously said to them find Boss Wu’s source of goods to grab business, but now they want me to poison Boss Wu’s shop, if I don’t do it, they will harm my son, and now they still turn their faces and don’t admit to their crime, woo, it’s just bullying common people and too black-hearted, even seven-year-old children they won’t let go of, bullying us father and son who have no one to rely on, they have to force people into prison, woo…”
“Ah, this?!”
Jiang Zhu cried sadly, and the surrounding masses became even more angry, the Qian family’s intention of killing was too bad!
“Smash them!”
They don’t know which angry young man shouted, and suddenly a rotten green vegetable was thrown outside the money clerk who stood at the door without reacting.
This throw, like a floodgate opening, rotten eggs, rocks, rotten vegetable leaves, and a bucket of smelly incense that no one knows who spilled were all thrown.
Things are developing too fast like a tornado, Qian Yuan is stupid, Mrs. Qian is confused, and the people under are at a loss.
Wang Dafu, who was standing next to Qian Yuan, had a face covered by clouds on a sunny day, his face was completely white, and he looked back at Zhao Haisheng behind him, his white face turned black, and he clenched his fists and teeth tightly.
