Chapter 258: The Five Great Families (Thanks to Jinzhong 0171 for unblocking)

After Qin Jiuye helped Zhao Xu up, he said in tears: "Good boy, get up quickly!"

Zhao Xu had many questions in his mind, but he didn't know how to ask Master Jiu.

Master Qin Jiu wiped his tears and said, "You child looks so much like your mother!"

When Zhao Xu's mother was mentioned, Zhao Xu was immediately sad!

My mother's appearance and smile seem to be still lingering in her ears.

After sorting out his thoughts, Zhao Xu asked Master Qin Jiu: "Master Jiu, since you know my mother's affairs, why haven't you seen you walk around in the past years?"

Master Qin Jiu sighed and said, "Hey! This matter is a long story. We have to start with the five major families!"

"Five great families?" Zhao Xu also heard this for the first time.

I heard Master Qin Jiu tell the story: "Do you know that at the end of the Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, there was a wealthy man with the surname Chen who was as rich as a country?"

"I know, he is Chen Wan..." Zhao Xu frowned when he heard this. He didn't know how this matter was related to the rich man surnamed Chen who was rich enough to rival the country.

Master Qin Jiu made a "shh!" gesture and said, "Shhh! Just know, don't say it out."

Qin Jiuye said: "The rich man with the surname Chen offended the emperor at that time. Later, he was sent to the army to be exiled. Most of his property was confiscated in the treasury. Little did he know that Shen Fuhao had long predicted that he would have such an end. Most of the assets were distributed to his five capable subordinates. Let these five people help them to help them in disasters! They would distribute wealth to poor people to comfort them and use them for their thoughts."

Master Qin Jiu took a sip of tea and continued, "These five major families are Zhang, Qin, Zhao, Ma, and Xiao!"

"These five major families abide by Shen Fuhao's instructions. Whenever they encounter disaster years, they will provide disaster relief to poor people. Donating money and materials are trivial matters, and they will do good deeds silently!"

"Although the five major aristocratic families share most of Shen Fuhao's property, the financial resources of these five major aristocratic families are not comparable to those on the current wealth rankings."

Hearing this, Zhao Xu asked Qin Jiuye, "Grandpa Jiu, then the Qin family and the Zhao family are my father's and maternal families, right?"

"Not bad!" Qin Jiuye nodded and smiled at Zhao Xu, "Xiaoxu, you'd better stop calling me Grandpa Jiu, just call me Master Jiu!"

"Why?" Zhao Xu asked in confusion.

Master Qin Jiu said: "Don't expose our relationship to outsiders as soon as possible. Because there are traitors in our five major families!"

"Traitor?" Zhao Xu was shocked.

Mr. Qin Jiu said: "Before, our four families have always suspected that it was your Zhao family. But your mother fell in love with your father. This is why our Qin family doesn't interact with your mother."

"Jiuwai..." Zhao Xu remembered Qin Jiu's explanation and immediately changed his words and said, "Jiu, then is our Zhao family really a traitor?"

Master Jiu narrowed his eyes and said, "I have been investigating this matter for so many years. I believe that the other families are also investigating this matter openly and secretly. However, all signs indicate that your Zhao family does not look like a traitor. Strangely, your father Zhao Xiaotian didn't come out to explain. It seems that there is an unknown reason hidden in it! I am old and can't check it anymore! I don't want to put this regret in the coffin. I secretly told this matter today. I hope you can check it for me and our five major families!"

As long as there is something about his father Zhao Xiaotian and his mother Qin Wan, Zhao Xu is interested! He has been practicing martial arts hard and trying to make progress, so as to find out the truth. But unexpectedly, he has involved things from five major families.

"Master Jiu, don't worry! I will definitely check it for you." Zhao Xu assured Master Jiu.

Master Jiu said: "Xiaoxu, the golden jade ring in your wife's hand was given to her by your father, right?"

Zhao Xu nodded because he had seen his mother wearing the same ring.

Jiu Ye reminded Zhao Xu: "That gold-inlaid jade ring is the token of our five major families. If you own one, you can open wealth that ordinary people can't even dream of a lifetime. If you collect five, you can open Shen Fuhao.

The more huge wealth left behind. So, please let Qingqing take it away and don’t lose it. Zhao Xiaotian’s ability to give the ring to your wife means that he has recognized this daughter-in-law in his heart!”

"Hmph! I won't change my hatred towards him because of this!"

"Xiaoxu, your mother is seriously ill and your father has a new love. I always think something is strange about this. Don't draw a conclusion blindly, you must find out the truth. If Zhao Xiaotian is really a traitor or is indifferent to the truth, he will be indifferent.

I, Qin Jiu, will not let him go." Qin Jiu's eyes shot out a murderous aura.

Zhao Xu only glanced at him and could clearly feel the temperature around him dropping a little.

What a terrible murderous intent!

No wonder Mr. Qin Jiu has been able to travel around the world for so many years and become famous all over the world!

At this time, Li Qingqing held her daughter Xiao Yezi in her hand and walked back with her sister Li Miaomiao.

Master Qin Jiu gave Zhao Xu a wink and said, "One other day, I will tell you these things again!"

Zhao Xu nodded, then picked up the teacup and took a sip.

Xiao Yezi broke away from Li Qingqing's hand, ran to Qin Jiuye, patted his belly and said, "Grandpa Jiu, I'm hungry, when will the meal start?"

Master Qin Jiu picked up Xiao Yezi and smiled docilely: "Yezi, you kiss Grandpa Jiu and you will start your meal immediately!"

"Pop!"

Xiao Yezi cooperated very well and kissed Master Qin Jiu's face, and said with a smile: "Grandpa Jiu, can you have dinner now?"

"Dinner! Wu Zheng, please go down and start your meal immediately."

Master Qin Jiu walked towards the hall with Xiaoyezi in his arms.

After everyone sat down, Mr. Qin Jiu sat on his left and Li Qingqing on his right. Xiao Yezi sat next to Li Qingqing, and Li Miaomiao was next to Zhao Xu.

A whole roasted lamb was quickly torn apart and brought up. There were also grilled fish, stewed fish, small chicken, and various local specialty foods produced by the villa.

Xiao Yezi was already drooling. Master Qin Jiu put on his gloves and grabbed a piece of mutton for Xiao Yezi. Xiao Yezi said to Master Qin Jiu, "Thank you Grandpa Jiu!". After that, he was already anxious to eat it.

stand up.

Master Jiu greeted everyone and smiled and said, "Don't be polite when you come here! I feel very kind when I see Zhao Xu. When I see you, it's more like seeing relatives. So, you must come often in the future.

Let me accompany me, the lonely old man. I will let the people in the villa! Make delicious food for you every day! Everyone, eat it!"

I have to say that the roasted lamb in Jiuye’s “Yangniange” villa is a perfect match! Zhao Xu, Li Qingqing, Li Miaomiao and others praised him.
Chapter completed!
