I unlocked the heroine's chance in the book exile

However, when Zhou Jinran and the others saw Old Master Zhou, all these things were forgotten about.

The Old Master Zhou at this moment was completely different from the one they had seen before, as if he was a completely different person.

Except for the face covered with spots but still showing his former appearance, no one could connect this man with the old man who looked honest but often had a gleam of light in his eyes.

Not only was his face covered with spots, but half of it was tilted along his mouth and nose, and with the saliva flowing uncontrollably, if no one had told them that this was Old Master Zhou, they would not have recognized him at all.

After all, after Old Master Zhou became paralyzed, his weight dropped dramatically, and now he is just skin and bones.

Moreover, the bones on the chest and legs protruded and stuck up high, which looked somewhat funny and hilarious.

"If we give our ancestor a bronze mirror now, he will surely be so angry that he will die."

Zhou Jinran and others looked at Sima Chuming who was speaking. Everyone present had admiration in their eyes, except for Old Master Zhou who was struggling on the bed.

Perhaps the ancestor also knew his current condition, so he expressed an extremely fierce protest against Sima Chuming's proposal.

Seeing the body that was already overloaded moving again, with the saliva flowing uncontrollably, everyone turned away in disgust.

Perhaps it was because their actions were not concealed at all, resentment and shame appeared in Old Master Zhou's eyes, and he kept making "ho ho" sounds from his mouth, which gave people goose bumps.

"Grandfather, why are you so excited when you hear about the bronze mirror? Is it because Chuncui hasn't shown it to you for some time? If so, then you don't know what you look like now, right?"

When Sima Chuhe heard Sima Chuming continue to talk and provoke Old Master Zhou, he pulled his sleeve and told him to hold back.

But Sima Chuming ignored his sister's attempt to stop him. He directly took out the bronze mirror that he had prepared at some point from his sleeve and held it in front of Old Master Zhou.

It doesn’t matter even if Old Master Zhou’s eyes are squinting, Sima Chuming will adjust the angle for him to ensure that he can see clearly.

So, in the surprised eyes of Zhou Jinan and the others, it was not known whether Old Master Zhou was angry at these young people or frightened by his own appearance. Anyway, he died without even being able to catch his breath.

The expressions of the people who saw this scene were very calm, as if the person who had died in front of them was not their ancestor.

"The evil you committed when you were young will be repaid in old age. He forced our great-grandmother to death and forced grandpa and his family out of the Zhou family. They had to abandon their surnames and were suppressed by him and his sons when they lived in the capital. If grandpa and his family were not lucky, they would have been forced to death by them long ago."

Even though the person was dead, Sima Chuming still felt unsatisfied. Every time he heard their grandfather talk about the sufferings he had endured in the capital in his early years, he wanted to pull out the tendons and skin him alive.

If we were to say who felt Sima Chuming's feelings the most, it would probably be Zhou Jinan and his sister.

Wasn’t their father almost forced to death by their grandfather and others?

If their father hadn't been quite capable, they wouldn't have existed.

So Zhou Jinran and the others didn't say anything about Sima Chuming's final action.

Soon, Sima became busy. After the person died, everything disappeared.

But for the Sima family, there is no such thing as disappearing into thin air. Although they held a funeral for Old Master Zhou, the form was as simple as possible.

Now that it has come to this, they don't want to act anymore.

The Zhou and Sima families in Hujiao Village and Nanze City also sent people to notify them.

After all, no matter what, older people still have to go through the formalities.

If for no other reason, the Zhou family had already been exiled, and they didn’t know how many eyes were watching them.

It would be bad if those people who have nothing to do after eating started talking nonsense everywhere, accusing them of being unfilial and putting a big hat on them.

After all, apart from anything else, as a businessman, you still have to pay attention to your reputation.

As a result, Zhou Jinran and his friends did not return to Hujiao Village, nor did they meet up with Wang Yaoming and his friends, and thus missed the surprise prepared by their third uncle and aunt.

The funeral was very simple. There was no banquet for guests, nor was there a professional team hired to play drums and gongs to send off the deceased.

The Sima family just hung a piece of white silk, and the whole family wore hemp and mourning clothes and passed away.

As for outsiders asking about it, just say that it was Old Master Zhou's last wish. After all, what he had done before was not glorious, so it was normal for him to have such a request.

Those who vaguely knew the truth would not say anything more, and thus, Old Master Zhou, who had survived so many things that had happened before, ended his life just like that.

I don’t know whether he regretted forcing Mr. Sima to this point at the end of his life, or regretted ignoring his illegitimate child.

But Zhou Jinran thought, probably he wouldn't do that. Not only would he not do that, he was probably regretting in his heart that he didn't take ruthless action and kill Mr. Sima and others.

People like him will never find fault with themselves, the fault will only be others.

The Sima family's affairs were over. When Zhou Jinran and the others left, Chun Cui also left the Sima family. She did not go to the Sima family's manor, but went to Jishiditang owned by Zhou Jinran and the others.

"Since I was old enough to understand, I had endless work to do and couldn't fill my stomach every day. Later, they sold me to the Sima family. I didn't complain about them. On the contrary, I would thank them because at least in the Sima family I could eat enough, wear warm clothes, and no one would beat or scold me.

They came to me before and said that if I took out money to marry their son, I would have nothing to do with them in the future. I was very tempted by their proposal. After all, I would rather be a maid in the Sima family than being their daughter.

But now the Sima family is kind and gave me a contract to sell my body. If I go to Zhuangzi, they will definitely keep pestering me. But it will be different if I go to Jishiditang. They will always bully the weak and fear the strong, and will only attack those who are weaker than them. If I go to Jishiditang, they will not care where they go, and I will be truly free."

Chun Cui said these words to Zhou Jinran when they left Sima's house.

Many people heard this at that time, including Zhou Peng, who had always looked down on her, because Zhou Peng thought that Chun Cui looked down on others last time, which made him very annoyed.

However, judging from Chuncui's attitude, she doesn't seem to be such a person. But Zhou Jinran doesn't want to delve into the truth.

After all, once they entered Jishidiang, Zhou Mingyu and his men had their own way of managing people.

If Chun Cui was really that kind of person, she wouldn't be able to stay in that place for long. She is a smart person and knows how to act in the best way for herself.
