The little cannon fodder kept releasing melons, and people lined up to eat melons

When Song Qianning was lying on a rocking chair in her room with her eyes closed, Mu Ju ran in noisily, shouting, "Something big has happened, something big has happened..."

She ran too fast and sprained her ankle, almost falling. It was only with the support of Mulan that she was able to stand steadily.

"Shh! You're disturbing the young lady by making a startled noise. Can't you see that she's taking a nap?" Mu Mei put her index finger on her lips, signaling Mu Ju to be quiet.

Mu Ju subconsciously covered her mouth. Seeing that the young lady showed no sign of opening her eyes, she whispered, "Oh! Oh!! I was so shocked just now that I forgot that the young lady was taking a nap."

"What made you so flustered?" Muzhu was also curious why Muju reacted so strongly.

Mu Ju glanced at the young lady to make sure she didn't disturb him, and lowered her voice and whispered: "You don't know, the second young master just caught the third young master, guess what? It turned out that the third young master went to the gambling house, and the old lady was so angry that she used family rules to punish the third young master!"

"Use family rules??? Like beating with a stick?? Or whipping with a whip?" Song Qianning was in a daze, and when she heard the word "family rules", she immediately sat up excitedly.

Family law! She had only seen it on TV, she had never seen it in person! How could she miss such excitement? She had to go and see it.

As soon as she said it, Song Qianning immediately stood up and called Mu Ju to accompany her as they rushed towards the ancestral hall.

As soon as I arrived at the courtyard outside the ancestral hall, I saw Song Chengyi being held down by four servants. The men standing on both sides were swinging their sticks to execute him alternately. Song Chengyi's screams mixed with the sound of the sticks. It sounded like he was beaten hard! The blood on his buttocks seeped through the clothes, and it was a bloody mess. It was painful just to look at it.

Song Qianning was a little scared by this scene. After all, it was her first time to see such a scene. She swallowed her saliva and dared not say a word. She just thought to herself, this is a big loss? ? This shouldn’t be the case?

[Shouldn’t this third brother be desperate to double his money after losing so much money, and be tricked step by step, and finally lose 800,000 taels at sunset? ? But it’s only noon now, right? ? ]

Song Chengyi was beaten to death with a stick. When he heard what his third sister said, he finally understood why his second brother could find him so accurately. It turned out that it was all thanks to his third sister.

Jiang rushed out of the ancestral hall, followed by Song Chengzhou, who was supporting the old lady. Seeing her son's miserable state, she finally couldn't help but shout to stop him: "Stop!" After that, she looked at the old lady and begged: "Mother, I have already hit you twenty times. If you hit me again, Brother Yi will not be able to bear it."

"Grandma, please calm down. I think my third brother will not do it again after this lesson." Song Chengzhou also pleaded.

The old lady was already a little soft-hearted, and after Jiang's pleading, she finally gave in and said, "Brother Yi, do you know you are wrong?"

Song Chengyi felt that although he was wrong to go to the gambling house, he had won more than 200,000 taels of silver when he was caught by his third brother! Sweat beads on his forehead slid down his cheeks and he gritted his teeth and said: "Grandma, mother, although I hid the matter of the 50,000 taels from you, this time I won back more than 200,000 taels. Even if your grandson is really wrong, grandma should not punish you so severely."

"You rebellious son, you have done something wrong and still don't repent. It seems that I haven't woken you up yet. I will beat you to death today, so that you won't ruin our entire mansion in the future." The old lady's face turned red with anger, and she pointed at Song Chengyi with trembling hands.

Jiang quickly supported the old lady and patted her chest to comfort her: "Mother, don't be angry. What will happen if you hurt yourself? Brother Yi is ignorant. Don't argue with him."

"Third brother, what nonsense are you talking about? You are addicted to gambling and deceive your elders. Instead of reflecting on your mistakes, you are making grandma and mother angry again." Song Chengzhou scolded his younger brother with a disappointed look on his face.

【I figured it out. It turned out that when the third brother won more than 300,000 taels and was feeling elated, the people behind the gambling house were about to close the net and let the third brother start to lose money, but the second brother rushed to catch him back, so he actually won more than 200,000! ! Hahaha, the people in the gambling house lost a lot this time. Isn't this called stealing a chicken but losing the rice? But this third brother is really the stupidest idiot in the world. He was complacent and thought he really won money? In fact, people deliberately let him win a sweet victory, and then let him lose until he loses his mind. No matter whether he bets big or small, he will lose. The person who shakes the dice is the gambling house owner's treasure, known as the king of tricks, and it is easy for him to control the points of the dice. 】

Song Chengyi forgot the pain in his buttocks and stared at Song Qianning with wide eyes.

The old lady and Jiang had never expected that the person behind the casino was so bold that he even dared to plot against the Marquis' Mansion.

The third brother stared at the third sister so intently, there was no guarantee that he would not be exposed. Song Chengzhou frowned and sighed and asked: "Third brother, have you ever thought about why you always lose after entering the gambling house? Do you think you are really lucky to win more than 200,000 taels this time? If I hadn't gone out to look for you and found you in the casino, do you think you would still win in the end? And if I hadn't gathered 20 people to look for you today in order to find you quickly, do you think we could get out of the casino safely with just you and me?"

In order to avoid arousing the suspicion of his third sister, Song Chengzhou did not say that the twenty people he brought were guards with extraordinary skills, not servants.

【Ouch!! The idiot Third Brother didn't know that the gambling house's tricks were all designed for him. Except for him, the gambler, almost all the people in the gambling house were from the gambling house. If there were only Second Brother and Third Brother, the people in the gambling house would definitely choose to kill them for the more than 200,000 taels of silver. Third Brother didn't know that the person who led him into the gambling house was in cahoots with the people in the gambling house. What they were eyeing from the beginning to the end was the deeds of all the land and shops of my grandmother. If Second Brother hadn't accidentally caught Third Brother gambling this time, I guess everything would have gone according to their plan.】

The old lady didn't expect that he came after such a long detour just for her property! This man is quite ambitious!

Jiang never expected that this was such a huge conspiracy. If it weren't for Ning'er, they might just think that Yi Ge'er was wasting his time on pleasure and at most would just use family rules against him.

Song Chengyi's world collapsed. Was it really like what his third sister and second brother said? But how could he be the one who took him to the casino? How could he plot against his grandmother?

Song Chengzhou saw his younger brother's face full of despair and shock, which was even more desolate than when he was just beaten with a stick. He had a bad feeling in his heart. Could it be that the person who led his third brother into a trap was one of his own? ?

"Brother Yi, let me ask you, who brought you into gambling? I know your personality. You would not go into such a place without any reason, let alone become addicted to it." The old lady wanted to know who dared to set a trap to harm Brother Yi and the Marquis' Mansion.

Song Chengyi was not a fool. He probably realized it. He didn't want his grandmother to be sad, so he looked around and said, "Grandma, I...I...I can't say it."

【Why didn't the third brother tell the truth? ? In fact, he was also quite miserable. He was lured step by step by the Su family cousins ​​Su Zimu and Su Zilin to the gambling house they conspired with. In fact, the people from my grandmother's family had long coveted my grandmother's property. They were unwilling to accept that my grandmother's aunt, that is, my great-grandmother, actually gave all the land, shops, gold, silver and jewelry to my grandmother as a dowry. Tsk tsk. . My grandmother's father Su Jingyou took a fancy to the family property left by my great-grandmother as an only daughter, and designed to make my great-grandmother lose her reputation and had to enter the Su family as a concubine. This made the Su family live a rich and noble life. Later, my great-grandmother saw through her husband Su Jingyou's calculations and gave all the money to my grandmother as a dowry for nothing. It was impossible for the Su family to want it. 】

"Who is it? Tell me, tell me." The old lady couldn't believe what she heard, but she still stubbornly wanted to hear it from Yi Ge'er's mouth.

Song Chengyi didn't expect that he would be used by his cousin as a tool to plot against his grandmother. He also knew that it was useless to say anything, so he had to say those two words: "It's my cousin... I'm sorry, grandma..."

"Mother, your condition is not good. Do you want me to help you go back and rest?" Jiang was very scared when she saw the old lady's shaky appearance.

The old lady was determined to figure it all out. She gritted her teeth and said, "I must figure it out today. You must tell me everything about how the two of them induced you."

Song Chengyi didn't dare to hide anything, so he had to tell Su Zimu and Su Zilin everything about taking him to the casino, and that it was also their idea to lie about the robbers stealing 50,000 taels of silver.

【Grandmother seems very sad!! Grandmother felt guilty for taking all of my great-grandmother’s property, so she has been doing her best to support her family for decades, and has given countless money. But what grandma doesn’t know is that my great-grandmother is probably about to be angry. My great-grandmother’s family was destroyed by my grandmother’s father Su Jingyou under the pretext of bandits. After my great-grandmother gave all her property to my grandmother, Su Jingyou gave her a chronic poison out of hatred, and my great-grandmother died after a year of suffering from illness. Before her death, my great-grandmother was afraid that Su Jingyou would meet with my grandmother because she was present, so she told her to put the Marquis’ Mansion first in everything. But my grandmother didn’t understand the meaning of it, and helped her wholeheartedly in her career and money. Alas!! But the Su family is still not satisfied, and what they want is the property in my grandmother’s hands.】

The old lady's head and ears were buzzing. She staggered and finally fainted. Jiang was worried about her mother-in-law's health. When she saw her mother-in-law fall, she quickly caught her body.
