How can the third elder's face be so good-looking? When he knew that the elder was really here with A-Lan, he wanted to leave the Leng Mansion even more. In addition, A-Lan would not let him leave, which made him even more uneasy. He could feel that A-Lan
Lan seems to know everything. If this is the case, what he just told the second elder will be meaningless. I believe that A Lan has already arranged to endure the protection of the lady. On the contrary, the second elder's people will also be discovered. When the time comes,
By that time, it was too late to say anything.
The third elder was discouraged again, staggered back to the chair, and said, "Allan, just tell me what you want to know."
A Lan smiled slightly and said: "I want to know about Jin Yuzhai. The third elder should not push everything to the first elder. I believe you should know this matter."
"I don't know about Jin Yu Zhai's affairs. I only care about Jin Pu's affairs. Jin Yu Zhai's affairs are handled by the Great Elder. What is the reason why you have been asking about Jin Yu Zhai's affairs?" asked the third elder.
Seeing that the third elder was stubborn and refused to tell the truth, A-Lan said: "Since the third elder doesn't want to tell, then just sit here and drink tea. Even if you don't tell me later, I will find someone to tell you the truth."
.”
The third elder's face was ugly because he knew that A Lan was threatening him.
"I have already said that my eldest brother is handling Jin Yuzhai's affairs. I don't know anything. I can tell you about the gold mine and the gold shop. You don't have to put me under house arrest in Leng Mansion. I am the same after all.
Your elders, are you afraid that the Leng family will be affected if you tell me?" said the third elder.
"Third Elder, I didn't expect you to be so stubborn at this time, so let's talk about the gold mine first. How did you discover the gold mine, and how did you manage to keep it from being discovered for so many years?" A Lan
asked.
Seeing that A Lan was willing to give in, the third elder breathed a sigh of relief and said: "The discovery of the gold mine was really an accident. We were just going to the northern suburbs for fun. When we reached the middle of the mountain, we found a cave. We didn't expect to find a gold mine. Originally, the three of us planned to
I told this secret to the clan, but when I thought that you were the head of the Leng family, I felt a little reluctant. Later, in order to prevent this secret from being discovered, we built a Guanyin Temple here. Because the gold mine cannot be told.
, so we mine in secret. We have decided to go there every three months if there are no accidents. If there are special circumstances, we will go there once a month. We haven’t discovered it for so many years because we used the money we earned.
The silver has brought down the gold shop. None of the clerks in the gold shop have been replaced. They don't even know that the boss has been replaced. Therefore, no one knows this secret for more than ten years. Now that you have discovered it, we will tell you
Out of gold mines and shops.”
Ah Lan thought for a moment and said, "I have no intention of asking you to hand over the gold mine. I don't even intend to ask you to take out the money you have earned over the years."
The third elder was a little surprised. He thought that after A-Lan knew about this, he would want them to hand over the gold mine, but he did not expect that A-Lan was not interested in the gold mine. Why did A-Lan do this?
"I've said everything I need to say, should you let me go back?" the third elder said anxiously.
"What I want to know is why you killed people and spread rumors about my father back then. This time after I came back, you tried to discredit me just like you did against my father back then. Am I right, Third Elder?" A-Lan said.
The third elder did not expect that even the rumor would be investigated by A-Lan. It seemed that A-Lan was not just doing nothing in the house during this period.
However, why did A-Lan talk about the murder? Did he already know about the shopkeeper Jin Yuzhai? However, unless the shopkeeper told him about this matter, how would A-Lan know about it?
The third elder didn't know how much Allan knew, and of course he didn't want to tell Allan everything, so he said: "That's right, after you came back, I thought you would continue to fight with the second lady, but who knew that after the second lady came back, every day
Seeing you for the first time is like a mouse meeting a cat. Therefore, we are worried that you will find out about the gold mine, so we spread rumors. A Lan, one wrong step and one wrong step, I know that we are not worthy of being the elders of the Leng family at all.
.”
The third elder said it very sincerely, and it was clear that he did not deceive Allan. And Allan had already investigated clearly. What the third elder said was not wrong, but the third elder deliberately concealed the matter about Jin Yuzhai. Because the third elder was worried that
I made many mistakes and was worried about telling the story about shopkeeper Jing.
"I believe what the third elder said is true, but there seems to be one thing you haven't said." A Lan looked at the third elder and said.
When the third elder saw Ah Lan being so aggressive, his eyes flickered and he said to Ah Lan, "What are you referring to?"
"Jin Yuzhai, you know what I'm asking about. Please don't hide it. I want to hear the truth from you." A Lan said.
The third elder gritted his teeth and said, "I have already said that I don't know anything about Jin Yuzhai."
"So the third elder didn't know what happened to Jin Yuzhai, which means it was all the elder's idea?" A Lan said.
"Yes, it was all eldest brother's idea. What happened in Jin Yu Zhai? Did eldest brother collude with Jin Yu Zhai's shopkeeper?" the third elder asked with doubts.
"When the great elder comes, I will just ask him." A Lan said.
Only a quarter of an hour passed, and the third elder was on pins and needles, as if three hours had passed. He didn't know what A Lan meant, and he didn't know if he could really see the elder today, but he couldn't do anything.
Tell Alan.
When the third elder was thinking about how to explain to A-Lan, Ayu walked in with the first elder.
When the third elder saw the eldest elder coming in, he stood up excitedly and asked, "Brother, where have you been these past few days and what happened?"
The first elder regretted that he did not listen to the third elder and go back earlier, which resulted in him being caught by A Lan.
The great elder said: "I have been detained in a separate courtyard by A Lan for the past two days."
"Great Elder, regarding the gold mine, the three elders have all admitted it. Now I just want to know about Jin Yuzhai, but the third elder told me that everything about Jin Yuzhai was all your idea." A Lan said.
The first elder glanced at the third elder and saw that the third elder shook his head at him. He knew that the third elder would not let him tell the truth, so he said: "Since the third elder has already said it, there is no need for me to hide the matter about Jin Yuzhai.
It was my idea, since Jinpu has already bought it, I decided to continue supplying Jinyuzhai."
"You know that's not what I'm asking about. I'm asking about shopkeeper Jin Yuzhai." A Lan said.
"What happened to shopkeeper Jin Yuzhai?" the great elder asked.
A-Lan asked A-Lan to find the shopkeeper. The third elder nodded to the elder and told him not to be nervous.
The first elder knew that the third elder must have a way to threaten the shopkeeper, so he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the third elder comforting him.
Shopkeeper Jin Yuzhai was brought in, and the third elder gave him a vicious look, meaning that if he spoke nonsense, his wife would be killed.
He believed that if the second brother did not see him return, he would definitely capture the wife of the shopkeeper Jin Yuzhai.
"Young Master, Third Elder, and First Elder." Shopkeeper Jin Yuzhai said respectfully.
"Shopkeeper, in front of the two elders, tell me what happened back then from beginning to end," A Lan said.
"Yes. Actually, I am not the shopkeeper of Jin Yuzhai. Brother Jing and I are from the same village. I came to the capital to join him. Brother Jing was very kind to me and left me to work in the shop. But later..." Shopkeeper Jing
He slowly recounted what happened that year.
When it was mentioned that the great elder threatened Shopkeeper Jing, the great elder's face was obviously very ugly. He knew that his story had been exposed.
However, before Shopkeeper Jing could finish his words, the third elder couldn't help but said: "Shopkeeper Jing, you should be careful with what you say and don't slander the great elder casually."
Shopkeeper Jing looked at A-Lan, and seeing A-Lan nodding to him, he continued: "What I said is true. I am really not Shopkeeper Jing. It was the elder who gave me the wine to drink to Brother Jing."
Zui, I thought they wanted to find the account book, but I didn’t expect that when I woke up, Brother Jing had already passed away. If you don’t believe it, I’ll prove it to you.”
Shopkeeper Jing poured the tea from the quilt on the table into the palm of his hand, dipped it in his hands, and gently tore off a layer of the mask. Shopkeeper Jing became another person.
"It was obviously you who sought wealth and killed people, how can you blame my elder brother? It was obviously you who poisoned the wine and killed shopkeeper Jing, and then replaced him," said the third elder.
"Third Elder, you must be conscientious. It was obviously you who threatened me with Ying'er and asked me to get Brother Jing drunk. I felt sorry for Brother Jing and couldn't bear to throw his bones into a mass grave, so I had to hide him in
The young master has found the skeleton, let’s see if you have anything else to say.” Shopkeeper Jing said.
The third elder did not expect that shopkeeper Jing would tell everything. He didn't know what to say for a moment, so he could only walk there in silence and drink tea. Because he knew that even if the second elder arrested the lady, it would not help.
.
"The old man once said that the Leng family's business is already very good, and there is no need to take it to the next level. Even if I find out that you are hiding the gold mine, I won't take it to heart. But you should never do it.
You have harmed people's lives, and now you are still insisting that you will not admit it." A Lan said.
"No, that's not the case, we didn't do that." The great elder said.
"Great Elder, I have investigated everything clearly, otherwise why would I invite Shopkeeper Jing to come here?" A Lan said.
The elder still wanted to explain, but he saw Uncle Ren walking in with the second elder.
The third elder was very surprised. Although he knew that even catching the wife would be useless, he did not expect that the second brother would be brought back.
When A-Lan saw Uncle Ren coming back with the second elder, he said, "Okay, the three elders are here, I don't know what else to say."
"Alan, we have said what we should say, and you have said what we should not say. We have nothing to say at this point, what exactly do you want to do?" said the third elder.
The third elder knew that A-Lan would not send them to the government, and the Leng family could not afford to lose this person. He really wanted to know what A-Lan wanted to do, which was just to drive the three of them out of the Leng family.
Ah Lan thought for a while and said: "The three elders are members of the clan, so of course you must be handed over to the clan for disposal. I am only responsible for investigating the whole matter, and the rest will be left to the clan leader."
