Chapter 401: Dumb Girl's Request
He Linwan got a positive answer from Xue Xingyi, and was both happy and sad in his heart, happy that the third brother had a high chance of still alive, and sad that he had become the bandit he used to despise the most.
After leaving Xue Xingyi, He Lin went to deal with Aunt Ying's funeral.
Aunt Ying has no children, no daughters, no relatives and no reason, she died unexpectedly, although before Mrs. Fang said that Aunt Ying entrusted her funeral to her, but Mrs. Fang is now taken away by Li Yu's people and is not yet free, He Linwan, as a student of Aunt Ying, it is reasonable to send her on the last journey.
After dealing with the funeral, two days later, Li Yu's people came over with a letter saying that the dumb girl asked to see He Yin.
Li Yu almost wiped out the Pingjia Village this time, he interrogated several masters in the village one by one, and even did not let go of such a small role as a dumb girl, but no one knew the whereabouts of the edict.
During the interrogation of the dumb girl, she never responded, but when she was finally taken away, she made a request to see the old master.
Although it was the dumb sister who blocked Wei's and saved Wei when Wei wanted to commit suicide, He Linwan still had no way to forgive her for her sinister act of taking the pregnant Wei away, not to mention that Aunt Ying was also very likely to be killed by her, because Aunt Ying's mother Gu was most likely to be on her body who got along with Aunt Ying day and night.
So when she heard her request, He Linwan didn't agree, but just remembered that she had saved Wei's after all, and He Linwan asked Li Yu to let her live after the interrogation, and from then on, they would not owe each other.
But when she saw Xiaohuzi, He Linwan suddenly remembered what he said to herself that day, and she realized that she couldn't make decisions for Xiaohuzi, who had gradually developed his own code of conduct, and it was not for his good.
So after thinking about it, He Linwan still informed him of the dumb girl's request, and as for whether to see or not to see it, it was Xiaohuzi's own business.
Unexpectedly and not unexpectedly, Xiaohuzi decided to meet the dumb girl, and there were some things he wanted to ask in person. He Linwan didn't say anything after learning of his decision, and sent someone to deliver a letter to Li Yu.
On this day, Xiaohuzi went to see the dumb girl and came back a little depressed, He Linwan found out but didn't ask, and after dinner in the evening, Xiaohuzi came to the door again.
"Not happy?" He Linwan touched his drooping head.
Xiaohuzi shook his head, then sat aside in a daze, He Linwan didn't care about him, and sat aside to read a book. After a while, Xiaohuzi walked up to her and sat down and took the book in her hand.
He Linwan sighed and asked, "Want to talk to me?"
Xiaohuzi pursed her lips and gestured: She said that she had a younger brother, about the same age as me, and they were separated when they were very young, and her brother's life was in the hands of those bad people, so she had to help them.
He Linwan nodded and asked him, "So what? Because she has a hard time doing bad things, do you have to forgive her?"
Xiaohuzi lowered his head and thought about it, and shook his head: No.
"Oh?" He Linwan looked at him with some surprise.
Xiaohuzi frowned and gestured: Because if my brother is arrested, and the bad guy threatens me to harm others, I won't go, I will only try to save him. So it's still her own fault.
He Linwan smiled when he heard this, touched his head and said, "Well, Xiaohuzi is right!"
Xiaohuzi was not happy to be praised, and he made a sullen gesture: she said that she only learned that her brother had been dead for several years after she was caught.
Saying that, Xiaohuzi took out a dark green purse embroidered with a tiger's head and put it in front of He Linwan: This is what she prepared for her brother, and it is the silver she has saved over the years, but her brother is dead, and she has no one close to her, so she wants me to keep it for her. I didn't want it, but she stuffed it into my hood while I wasn't looking, and when I came back, I found out, you can help me ask someone to return it to her.
He Linwan took the purse, opened it and took a casual look, there were a few folded silver tickets and a few golden beans in it, He Linwan didn't count them, and said to Xiaohuzi: "Okay, I'll let people return it to her." ”
Xiaohuzi seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and got up to leave.
"Ah Yin. He Linwan called him and said, "Don't be sad, you will make a lot of friends in the future." ”
Xiaohuzi nodded.
What He Linwan didn't expect was that she didn't return the dumb girl's purse in the end.
The mute girl committed suicide the night she saw Xiaohuzi, and the next morning she was found hanging herself on the fence of the prison with her belt.
He Linwan never figured out the mute girl, I don't know what kind of mood she had to kill Aunt Ying and kidnap Wei, and I don't know if she used such a cruel method to commit suicide because of guilt or because she felt lonely and helpless.
He Linwan didn't talk to Xiaohuzi about the dumb girl's suicide, she sent someone to collect the dumb girl's body, which can be regarded as a master-servant relationship.
On this day, He Linwan was holding the child in front of Wei's bed to make fun, and He Guanglie came back from outside.
"Why are you so happy?" He Guanglie asked with a smile.
He Linwan said with a smile: "You're talking about naming your younger brother, have you forgotten about it?"
He Guanglie slapped his forehead when he heard this, "Tsk! There have been so many things in the past few days, I really forgot about it." I want to think about it!"
Saying that, He Guanglie really looked at the child in He Linwan's hand and thought about it for a long time.
"Hey, there is! How about calling He Leopard? There is a tiger and a leopard in the family, and when you hear it, you will be majestic!" He Guanglie said.
Wei glanced at He Guanglie and said angrily: "I'm afraid the elders in the family won't let you write this name into the family tree." ”
"Lao Tzu's son, don't let Lao Tzu name it casually!" He Guanglie muttered on the side.
"Mother, it's better for you to come!" He Linwan said with a smile.
He Guanglie hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, yes, it's still Zhenniang, you come!"
Wei also knew that He Guanglie could not be counted on in this matter, so he thought for a while and said: "Xianggong wants a majestic name, how about calling He Jin? ”
He Guanglie immediately cheered: "Okay, good, good, this name is good!" Although he couldn't tell what was good.
He Linwan also said: "It's good, although it is a bladeless spear, it is imposing, it is a weapon but it is not murderous, and it has the virtue of benevolence and righteousness!
It happened that Xiaohuzi came in at this time, and Wei asked him for his opinion on his brother's name, and when Xiaohuzi heard this, he immediately gestured: I think the name He Bao is good!
I have to say that heredity is really a very mysterious thing, and the aesthetics of this father and son are so similar.
He Guanglie didn't appreciate it, and said in disgust: "Go and go, you know a fart! Your mother is much more literary than your father, you have to listen to your mother in this matter!"
Although Xiaohuzi was a little reluctant, he didn't dare to refute after all.
Wei looked at their father and son and smiled: "Since that's the case, then the nickname is Leopard." ”
