Chapter 152: Zhou's house caught fire

Chapter 152

Because of Luo Mianyuan's sudden death, both Luo Junle and Zhou Yurong decided not to hold the wedding. They only hurriedly obtained the marriage certificate and then began to arrange for Luo Mianyuan's funeral.

According to Luo Mianyuan's wish during his lifetime, his funeral was not arranged in a big way.

Feng Nian simply performed a ritual ceremony for Luo Mianyuan, which was considered to be the fate of their acquaintance.

Wei Zhen knew that Feng Nian promised Luo Mianyuan to let Luo Junle and Zhou Yurong's family go to Zuncheng, so he directly took over the matter and asked Yan Sheng to find a house for their family in Zuncheng first, and wait for them to arrive After honoring the city, there will be a place to stay.

——

On the outskirts of Zhou Town.

"Zhou Qi, have you done what I ordered you?" A noble lady stood in front of Zhou Qi.

Zhou Qi could recognize that the cheongsam worn by the lady was embroidered by Zhou himself, because there was a mark of "Yunshang" on the sleeves and cuffs.

"Ma'am, I'm ready. It will be done tonight." Zhou Qi's hands had already been clenched into fists in his sleeves. He had waited eighteen years for tonight, and that was enough.

"Okay, after this is done, the entire Zhou family will be yours." The lady waved her hand, signaling Zhou Qi to leave on his own, and let him arrange things for tonight first.

Zhou Qi got up and headed towards Zhou's residence. Tonight, he was going to end all of this. Get back everything that happened eighteen years ago.

After seeing Zhou Qiyuan leaving, Zuo Youxi who was beside the lady asked, "Mother, sister is also in Zhou Town, what happened tonight, will it affect her?"

"No, keep an eye on it, remember not to hurt your sister." The lady pressed her sore forehead.

She hadn't planned to move the Zhou family so quickly, but the Zhou family members were too ignorant, and she obviously gave them a chance, but they didn't cherish it. In that case, don't blame her.

Today, she specially came to Yunshang in person, and her cheongsams were all made by Zhou Zi. She appreciates Zhou Zi's craftsmanship. It's just that she gave Zhou Zi another business today, but Zhou Zi declined without hesitation.

She gave Zhou Zi the blueprint of the black wedding dress, and asked Zhou Zi to embroider a set of black wedding dress according to the blueprint.

Zhou Zi didn't even take a second look at the drawing of the black wedding dress, and directly refused, "Madam should know that I am no longer from the Zhou family. Since Madam is from the Feng family, you should know that the Zhou family needs to sew black wedding dresses." What a price to pay!"

The lady never thought that Zhou Zi would refuse directly. She sneered, turned and left Yunshang, leaving only one sentence: "I hope Master Zhou will not regret it when the time comes."

People always have weaknesses. Although Zhou Zi didn't have a family, he also has weaknesses.

——

At night, Feng Nian sat quietly by the window, looking at the deserted street.

Originally, he wanted to find someone to imitate a black wedding dress to make Zhou Sheng mess up, but now it seems that this method is too slow. But how can the Zhou family hand over the general's urn?

"Although the Zhou Family Embroidery Workshop still has a reputation, it has actually been going downhill. This time, Zhou Yanqiong privately brought the general's urn to the auction. The Zhou family also paid a huge amount of compensation. Now it is already stretched. Now, as long as they are forced, Zhou Provincial Council will not be able to bear it, and then use it as a bargaining chip to ask them to hand over the general's urn."

Wei Zhen knew what Feng Nian was worrying about, so he asked Yan Sheng to investigate clearly, cursing that at the auction, it was actually Zhou Sheng who took away the General's urn.

"But—" Feng Nian was interrupted by Wei Zhen before he had time to say no.

"Don't forget, you are my fiancée, this is just a trivial matter, don't feel troublesome." Wei Zhen knew that Feng Nian was worried that it would bring trouble to the Wei Group.

Hearing Wei Zhen mentioning that she was his fiancee, Feng Nian blushed, as if since she became Wei Zhen's fiancee, someone had been by her side all the time, she was no longer alone. It also seemed that someone was telling her, don't be afraid, just make trouble, and she suddenly thought of a sentence, "You mess around, I will deal with the aftermath", which seemed to be especially appropriate for the occasion. Strong throbbing filled the whole body.

Suddenly, a person broke in, breaking the warm atmosphere.

"Mr. Wei, go," Yan Sheng was out of breath, and didn't say a word quickly.

Wei Zhen glanced at Yan Sheng with disgust, he recruited assistants when others recruited them, why did his assistant look so ungrateful. Should he consider changing his assistant? The first condition is to know how to observe words and expressions.

After panting for a while, Yan Sheng continued, "Zhou's residence suddenly caught fire, and the fire was very intense."

Feng Nian stood up suddenly, Luo Mianyuan had just passed away not long ago, and she had just learned that the General's urn was related to the python suit, and the Zhou family was related to the black wedding dress, so why did something happen to Zhou's house!

"I'm going to take a look." She always felt that there were invisible hands that cut off the clues she had just found.

"Together." Wei Zhen picked up Feng Nian's coat and handed it to her.

Outside the Zhou residence.

The flames shot into the sky, thick black smoke mixed with the night, and the sky in Zhouzhen became even darker. The thick heat wave made people unable to open their eyes.

People in Zhou Town came out to help put out the fire, and the people in Zhou's house were all smoked, and people were carried out from Zhou's house from time to time. It is said that the fire started very quickly, as if it started from Zhou Yanqiong's room first.

Wei Zhen held Feng Nian in his arms, worried that she would be bumped into by others.

The hospital also sent a car over, but because the alleyway was too narrow, they had to stop at the intersection, and the injured were kept on stretchers and carried out. The sounds of giving way and firefighting came one after another.

In the chaotic crowd, Feng Nian and Wei Zhen saw Zhou Zi's figure, he kept shuttling among the people who were carried out from Zhou's house~lightnovelpub.net~ identifying each face one by one, with An anxious expression. However, every face was not the person he was looking for, and the loss on his face was obvious.

Amid the strong smell of burning, Zhou Zhen ushered in a new day.

Last night, although the residents of Zhou town tried their best to help put out the fire in Zhou's house, the area of ​​Zhou's house was too large and most of them were made of wooden structures, so a large area was still burned down. On the contrary, the nearby Zhoujia Embroidery Workshop was burned to a lesser extent. Obviously, the fire started from inside Zhou's residence.

Zhou Sheng and his wife were unconscious when they were rescued, and died on the way to the hospital. Zhou Qi burned his arm and stayed in the hospital. And Zhou Yanqiong was found pressed in her own room after dawn, her whole body was burnt. The reason why the charred body was believed to be Zhou Yanqiong was because Zhou Qi went to identify it. Judging from the body shape, the person should be Zhou Yanqiong without a doubt.

The Zhou family, which once represented Zhou Town, disappeared in a fire like this. Zhou Qi naturally became the head of the Zhou family, but he no longer lived in Zhou's house, he moved back to the house he used to live in. Dealing with the affairs of the Zhou family every day, the elders of the Zhou family also agreed that Zhou Qi should continue to be in charge of the Zhou family. After all, Zhou Sheng's family is dead, and Zhou Qi is the most legitimate person.
