Chapter 69: The ancestral hall is shocked

Zhang Jintu stood still in front of You Wu, his happy face slightly puzzled, "Miss You? ”

The gentle voice sounded in his ears, You Wu felt a little familiar, looked up, and looked carefully for a moment before he recognized that it was Zhang Jintu. She stood up, the face in front of her was clearer, and when she saw Zhang Jintu looking at her with sparkling eyes, she hurriedly raised her hand to greet him, "Zhang Gongzi, you are also here, what a coincidence." After speaking, she suddenly remembered that the brocade was his, and looked up, and sure enough, he was looking at herself with a narrow face. You Wu blushed and pulled out an embarrassed smile.

"Well, what a coincidence." It wasn't loud, but the smile was obvious.

Hearing this, You Wu felt even more embarrassed and stopped talking. The two stood still like this for a moment, and Zhang Jintu suddenly said, "Isn't Miss You at home today?" ”

"These days, I have been living in the suburbs to recuperate, and I have not been at home."

"Then you know ......" Before Zhang Jintu's words were finished, a commotion came in, beating gongs and drums, whipping and cannons, so lively.

Qingzhi came to the door, saw the lively scene outside, and happily turned back to You Wu and called, "Miss, there is a team to welcome relatives outside, it's really lively." ”

You Wu immediately trotted over, and Zhang Jintu behind her wanted to call her out, but he didn't speak.

A long procession of relatives passed through the street, and from time to time a child or two would rush out of the crowd to stop the procession and wait until they were full of candy before leaving happily.

You Wu looked forward along the line, wanting to see the groom's appearance, but what she didn't expect was that the leader at the front of the team was actually a black horse, and there was a faint red on the horse's back, which seemed to be the big red flower that the groom should wear in front of him.

Feeling very strange in her heart, she sighed. When someone heard about it, he kindly thought to her and replied, "This horse is a substitute horse, and it is said that the groom is so sick that he can't even get out of bed." ”

Hearing this, You Wu's lively thoughts suddenly disappeared, and there was a trace of sadness in his heart, and he also had some sympathy for the bride in the sedan chair.

"Well, do you know who the bridegroom is?" The man seemed to be addicted to gossip, so he came to You Wu's side and talked to her.

"I don't know!" She didn't want to know either, it had nothing to do with her anyway.

The man didn't hear her carelessness, he just thought that she really didn't know, and immediately told aloud: "The groom is You Haili, the second master of the You family, and the rich businessman You family in Yancheng, you know!" ”

"You family!" You Wu's eyes widened, full of disbelief, today is the day of her father and Lin Yuehua's marriage, why didn't anyone inform her? If she hadn't happened to accompany Fenzi to go out to buy goods, she was afraid that she would still be kept in the dark at the moment. Wait, You Wu was suddenly stunned, the man just now seemed to say that the groom was so sick that he couldn't even get out of bed! But isn't the bridegroom his father? Could it be that my father is seriously ill?

You Wu was shocked, grabbed the sleeve of the gossipy person, and asked nervously, "The groom is seriously ill, when will it happen?" ”

"Just ten days ago, there was news that You Haili seemed to have suffered a very serious external injury, and when he returned to You's house that day, he was bleeding all over the ground!" The man was still talking intermittently, but You Wu couldn't listen to a word.

The crowd in the inner area suddenly became noisy, and people crowded to the periphery, You Wu looked a little dazed, and didn't notice the crowd in front of him who kept retreating.

Seeing that she was about to be squeezed by the crowd, a person flashed behind her, pulling her to the rear.

"Be careful, don't get hurt." Zhang Jintu instructed softly, looking at this, I'm afraid she doesn't know that You Haili will marry a new wife!

You Wu came back to her senses at this time, she turned her head to look at the lively greeting procession on the street, her eyes were obscure, so that Zhang Jintu couldn't guess what she was thinking.

"Thank you!" Suddenly, she turned back to thank him, and before he could react, she was like a dexterous cat that had already disappeared into the crowd.

"Miss, where are we going?" was dragged by You Wu for a while, and Qingzhi was already so tired that he couldn't breathe. Finally stopping and taking a breath, she hurriedly asked.

"Go home."

"Don't you want to go shopping?"

"Go back to You's house!"

You Wu asked Fenzi to go shopping on the street by herself, and then gather at the carriage parking place in the middle of the night, and after explaining, she took Qingzhi and hurried to You's house.

When she arrived, the greeting team also happened to arrive at the main gate, and seeing this, she had to rush to the back door.

It turned out that there was a small servant at the back door of the You family to guard there, but maybe it was because the house was busy today and there were not enough people, and when You Wu came to the back door, he saw that the door was closed.

There was no way, the matter was urgent, she couldn't wait for a moment, found a low wall, and planned to climb over the wall.

I don't know if she has exercised too much in recent days, or if the weight loss has worked, but after a few strokes, she easily crossed the low wall and entered the You family's inner house.

There was silence inside the low wall, no one was passing by, and a low noise came from a distance, which accentuated the silence of the place.

You Wu looked around and found that this was the northwest corner of the You family's house, and not far away was the You family's ancestral hall. She rarely comes here on weekdays, and only during the New Year's holidays will she come here with her family to worship her ancestors.

She walked alone in the direction of the West Courtyard, not letting Qingzhi in, only letting her wait in place. Along the way, the ancestral hall is the only way to go. Although she is not afraid of ghosts and gods, being alone in a silent and specific ancestral hall still makes her a little creepy.

You Wu quickened her pace and wanted to pass through the ancestral hall quickly, but when she passed the last ancestral hall room, there was a slight sound of conversation inside. She paused, listened carefully, and it was indeed someone speaking inside. At this time, the You family should be busy in the outer house, who will come here!

She walked softly to the window and leaned closer to listen, but she still couldn't hear it really. Suddenly, a cat meow came from behind her, and she stiffened, ready to hide, but before she could turn around, the door of the ancestral hall had already opened.

You Wu stiffened and tried to look at the door, a vague figure appeared in front of her, and when the person walked in, she shook suddenly, turned around as if she was running away, but was instantly caught by the person.

"Miss You, how are you doing lately?" The evil voice sounded in her ears, You Wu trembled for a while, she didn't know why Lin Yueming appeared in the You family ancestral hall, but she knew that this was never a good thing.

"Let go of me, how did you come here? Don't you know that the ancestral hall of the You family is at this time? You Wu kept struggling, but unfortunately the hand behind her trapped her like pincers, making her unable to move.

"Of course I know that this is the You family ancestral hall, and as for why I'm here, I don't think you want to know." After speaking, Lin Yueming carried You Wu into the ancestral hall.

Soon, silence returned to the outside.
