Chapter 230: Exposing Her Past
At this moment, when Huo Xuan and Xu Huan saw that there was a conflict at the door, they followed up and listened to the commotion. When everyone heard the old man say this, they widened their eyes in shock. They couldn’t believe that Grandma Zhang was a child of the Zhang family in Beijing.
After his shock, Huo Xuan stared coldly at the group of Zhang family members who had come with ill intentions. Although he had considered the possibility of Grandma Zhang hiding some unknown secret when he found out that her grandmother was poisoned, he never expected her to be from the Zhang family.
No wonder so many people had come to assassinate Grandma Zhang this time. If that was the case, everything made sense.
Back then, they had caused Grandma Zhang to leave home and live in a mountain village. Now that Grandma Zhang was seriously ill, they still did not let her off.
As if he had recalled something, Huo Xuan’s pupils suddenly constricted. When he was investigating the various large families in Beijing, he had once seen detailed information about the Zhang family. If he remembered correctly, the information showed that the Zhang family had indeed lost a young daughter many years ago. Could Zhang Fen be the daughter of the Zhang family who was missing?
Heh, when Grandma Zhang was still alive, they didn’t come to look for her. Now that she had passed away, they had come to pay her condolences so obediently. If they said that there was nothing else going on, he definitely wouldn’t believe it.
Before Huo Xuan could figure out these things, Mo Zhu had already rejected the group of people in front of her coldly. “My grandmother doesn’t want to see a single person from the Zhang family.”
After a pause, Mo Zhu raised her hand and gently pressed her knuckles. She glanced at the crowd coldly and added, “All of you better disappear from here immediately while I’m still talking to you nicely. Otherwise, with my current mood, if you force me to take action, I can’t guarantee that I can leave all of you with an intact corpse.”
Seeing this, the man pulled back his arm that was grabbed by Mo Zhu just now. When he heard the girl’s unkind words, he said with a trembling voice filled with lingering fear, “Look at how stubborn you are. Since you insist on making us leave, it’s not like we must go in to pay our respects. However, when we came to Cloud City this time, your great-grandfather asked me to pass a message to you. He said that you have the blood of the Zhang family in you. You should be a member of the Zhang family if you’re alive, and the Zhang family’s ghost if you’re dead. He’s waiting for you to return to the Zhang family.”
After saying this, he immediately gave the juniors of the Zhang family a look and they followed him out of the funeral parlor.
According to tradition, as Zhang Fen’s granddaughter and Zhang Fen’s only relative, Mo Zhu should guard her body for three days.
In the past three days, Mo Zhu had been kneeling quietly in the auditorium of the funeral parlor. Apart from standing up and bowing to the person who was paying his respects, Mo Zhu had never left the auditorium.
On the third night, Mo Zhu carried Zhang Fen’s urn and prepared to bury her in the grave.
Just as Mo Zhu stood up, Jiang Yu took two steps forward and stood behind the girl. She wiped her tears and said with a sob, “Sister Xiao Zhu, Grandma Zhang watched me grow up too. Let me send grandma off with you.”
Although Jiang Yu had heard the news of Zhang Fen’s death from Zhong Zhe that night, Mo Zhu had been sending people to the Zhong family to keep a close eye on her and prevent her from leaving the house.
Seeing that Grandma Zhang was about to be buried, she specially asked Zhong Zhe to help her contact Mo Zhu and plead for her. That was how she got the chance to visit Grandma Zhang.
When Mo Zhu heard Jiang Yu’s words, she looked up at her indifferently and said, “Sure.”
She carried the urn to the cemetery. After Mo Zhu placed the box down, a dedicated staff member came to complete the subsequent work.
The grave where Zhang Fen was to be buried was personally chosen by Huo Tao and Chen Man in the past two days. Be it in terms of Fengshui or overall construction, it was the best in Cloud City. Zhang Fen had stayed in Qingyuan Village for so many years. Compared to the Zhang residence in Beijing, this place was more like her hometown, so Mo Zhu decided to bury her grandmother here.
The entire cemetery’s security was tightened by Huo Xuan’s arrangements. As Grandma Zhang’s identity was special, and she had so many unknown secrets on her, he was afraid that after Grandma Zhang died, the group of people would still come here and disturb her peace..
