He Linwan nodded to Cao's family, "I understand what the second aunt means, as long as it is within my ability, I will help the fourth sister." ”

Cao Shi smiled, "Thank you so much for the second aunt." ”

He Linwan said goodbye to the Cao family and left.

Pan came forward to support Cao, although Cao is far from the age to need support, but Pan has always served his mother-in-law carefully, and Cao has always been very useful.

Pan said: "Why does my mother treat the eldest girl so differently? The daughter-in-law looks at her no different from an ordinary girl." ”

Cao Shi shook his head, "If she is really ordinary, how can the third aunt value her so much? What's more, I have no choice, Zhen'er has no sisters, and among the girls in the He family, only the eldest girl can rely on. ”

Pan Shi looked at Cao Shi and asked cautiously with a hint of curiosity, "Who is the person that Mother and the eldest girl are talking about?"

He made a cold face to the Pan family, who had always been kind and pleasant, and reprimanded him softly: "Don't ask what you shouldn't ask." ”

Pan pursed his lips and lowered his head to admit his mistake, "Yes, mother, daughter-in-law knows that she is wrong." ”

Cao Shi realized that he was too harsh, and slowed down his tone again: "That person is a distant relative of my mother's family, and he doesn't have much contact with our house on weekdays, so you don't need to know this." ”

Pan Shi showed a smile, "Yes." Mother, let's go back and prepare things for Zhen'er, or we'll be too late. ”

"You're right, let's go. ”

Cao immediately forgot about the unpleasantness just now, and pulled Pan away with a brisk walk.

Hu Yao was very neat, and He Linwan came back more than an hour after returning from Qiushi Courtyard.

"Girl, my subordinates have found out. ”

He Linwan nodded and motioned for her to say.

Hu Yaoyu reported: "Yesterday, Wei Yuhua's husband Wu Liyan came out of the Spring Breeze Ruyi Building. There were a total of six people, including Wu Liyan's colleagues, and scholars who failed to make the list, they entered the building at the time of the unitary and stayed for a total of two hours. The subordinates also found out that Wu Liyan had a good friend named Yan Jiuniang in the Spring Breeze Ruyi Pavilion, and the two got along well before Wu Liyan was admitted to the Jinshi, and Wu Liyan would stay at Yan Jiuniang from time to time, but after getting married, he didn't stay overnight, saying that the person in the family watched closely. Although Yan Jiuniang is laughing, she is still a little sincere about this Wu Liyan, and she has not accepted his prostitution for several times, which has caused her mother to complain. ”

He Linwan smiled, "This martial artist is quite capable. ”

Hu Yao also smiled, "I do have some ability, there are many girls in the building who like him." I don't know if this martial artist writes well or not, but I heard that he is proficient in music and opera, and he is good at all kinds of musical instruments, and sometimes he can sing a few paragraphs while he is drinking too much, and he has heard that he can sing better than the Danjiao in the theater. ”

He Linwan pondered for a moment and asked, "I heard that he is a relative of which Guogong Mansion?"

Hu Yao said: "It's the Anguo Mansion." ”

He Linwan raised his eyebrows, "Anguo Mansion Dealer?"

"Yes, girl. He said to the outside world that he was a distant relative of the Zhuang family, his ancestral home was Yunzhou, and his family was a local squire, and he had a lot of wealth. Because the elders of the family died one after another, they brought their ancestral property to Beijing to seek the blessing of the banker. The dealer also took good care of him, and after he came to Beijing, he hired a husband for him to teach him to read the imperial examination. ”

He Linwan heard the meaning of the fox and asked, "Is this the identity that is said to the outside world, and what is the actual identity?"

Hu Yao said: "It is the nephew of the concubine of the prince of Anguo." It is said that this favorite concubine was a girl from the squire's family, and because she fell in love with the prince of Anguo at first sight, she entered the house as a concubine. Later, her parents, brothers and sisters-in-law passed away one after another, and her nephew came to Beijing to defect. People who settle down know these things and don't shy away from them. ”

He Linwan thought about it for a while and said with a smile: "It's a little interesting." Let's talk about Wu Liyan, what else did you find?"

Hu Yao knew what He Linwan wanted, so he took out a piece of paper from his sleeve and presented it, "This was found from Yan Jiuniang." ”

He Linwan took the piece of paper that seemed to be written casually and looked at it, and saw that it was a record of bets, which marked who made how many bets, as well as the handprints of Wu Liyan and others.

He Linwan took the piece of paper and carefully identified it, and finally saw something interesting, and couldn't help laughing.

In addition to the money bets, some surnames are also marked, such as Xue, Zhuang, Mu, and He...... Wait a minute. He Linwan had just finished participating in the draft, how could he not recognize the surnames of the girls who participated in the draft written by these people, so they understood what they were betting on.

Hu Yao said: "They are privately betting on the show girls, betting on who can be the princess." ”

In fact, during each draft, there are many people who bet on this in private, and generally speaking, the government will not pursue these things.

He Linwan's focus was a little crooked, "This Wujin Shi is betting on not the Zhuang girl from their Anguo Mansion?"

Hu Yao said: "Wu Liyan once said to Yan Jiuniang in private that the girl in the Anguo Mansion was too ordinary, and this time she just entered the palace to go through the motions. ”

He Linwan handed the paper back to Hu Yao, "Do you know what to do?"

The fox smiled and saluted, "Yes, the girl will wait and see." ”

On the other hand, the Wei family deliberately spent a lot of money to find a name to write a pleading, and took the money to take some official relations, bent on making the He family look good.

The Wei family was fully prepared, and asked the servants in the family to bring the paper to the yamen first, not wanting the servants to just walk to the door of the yamen, but the official servants had already gone to the door of the Wei family. After Wu Liyan was injured, he was carried back to Weifu, and in order to recuperate from his injuries and to file a complaint, he never left Yue's house.

Wei Shengwen got the news and wondered, "Shouldn't you go and get the defendant He Yin first?

The messenger first saluted, and then said: "Lord Wei, someone has accused your son-in-law Wu Liyan of being drunk and innocent, gambling with the show girls in the Qinglou prostitute hall, and commenting on the princess and the nobles in the palace, and his words are very frivolous. Wu Liyan said that where is Lord Wu now, please come with us to the Yamen. ”

Because Wei Shengwen is an official of the imperial court, and Wu Liyan is famous, the attitude of the errand officer is quite respectful.

Yao and Wei Yuhua, who heard the news, looked stunned.

Wei Yuhua said sharply: "Aren't you supposed to be the He family arresting that little dumb who beats people? What are you doing to arrest my father-in-law? My father-in-law was wronged!"

Yao Shi also said anxiously: "Yes, is there a mistake?"

Wei Shengwen was an official in the end, so he calmed down a little and asked the official: "I don't know who falsely accused my son-in-law?"

The messenger said: "The person who complained is the old bustard of the Spring Breeze Ruyi Building, and ...... Master Wu's good friend Yan Jiuniang in the building. ”
