Chapter 50: Secret Visit (3)
The pearl in the attic stayed for about a cup of tea, and only then did they come down with some reluctance under the reminder of Mama Xu. There are several young ladies holding hands www.biquge.info whispering from hand to ear, showing a shy smile from time to time, and that look can't help but make people think about it.
When everyone stood still and was about to leave, a maid came in front of her, and said to Mingzhu: "Miss, the master told you to go to the Magenta Xuan." ”
Mingzhu listened, and subconsciously looked at Mama Xu, Mama Xu nodded lightly with a smile, a blush flashed on Mingzhu's face, and said to the maid: "Then you will lead the way." The maid answered and led Mingzhu in the direction of the side door.
Wang Jin saw that they went to the same road they had taken before, and he knew in his heart that this pearl saw that his father was fake, but his husband was real. A few quick-thinking young ladies also guessed Mingzhu's true intentions, although they knew the true purpose of today's trip, they couldn't help frowning slightly. Today's people are the most outstanding talents from a few large families, and I have heard of their reputation in daily life, which girl is not pregnant with spring, and there is no careful thinking. Now that I see that there is only one Mingzhu, I am naturally dissatisfied. Wang Jin didn't bother to care about their thoughts, she followed Pandi to Aunt Meng in front, and on the way, Pandi excitedly told her about the sons she saw today. Although she didn't know any of them, Mingzhu treated her very close to her today, and introduced what Mama Xu told her to Pandi.
"Sister Jin'er, do you know, that Li Gongzi is the Li family, the eldest son of the third master of the Li family who opened the silk and satin village and the money village, I heard that he was engaged to a baby in the early years, but later the girl got sick and did not survive, and Li Gongzi has not talked about marriage all these years. I heard Sister Mingzhu say that this Li Gongzi is young and weak, and he has been helping to take care of business at home, and he is very capable. I think Sister Mingzhu is eighty percent in love with him! Pan Di's eyes were bright, and sure enough, girls were the same when they talked about gossip.
Wang Jin also said with a look of great interest: "I know, Mu'er's classmate Li Mingfang is from the Li family, and I also heard that this Li Gongzi is indeed a talent, but I think it is more compatible with our sister Pandi, why don't we talk to Aunt Meng about this?" ”
Pandi immediately blushed when she heard this, and waved her hand again and again and begged: "Sister Jin'er, don't, otherwise with my mother's temperament, maybe she will really do something, and I won't have the face to see people by then!" ”
Wang Jin suddenly came to tease her, but she didn't admit it, and the two kept making small moves along the way, until they reached the door of Mrs. Zhu's room, Wang Jin relented and agreed.
After a long goodbye, they left Mrs. Zhu, and Wang Jin said goodbye to Pandi and them at the gate of the cyclamen, and drove towards the west of the city in the carriage that Aunt Meng rented for her.
Walking to West Street, Wang Jin looked at the time and estimated that it was too late to go home tonight, so he got out of the carriage and let the coachman leave on his own. On the south side of West Street, she remembered that there was a very famous sugar water shop, which had been sold for more than ten years, so she followed the location in her memory to find it, and sure enough, the shop was still there. She ordered a bowl of lotus seed sugar porridge, drank it, and paid attention to the situation in the alley diagonally opposite. But this wait, I waited for nearly an hour, fortunately this shop closed late, otherwise Wang Jian really didn't know where to sit.
At this time, it was the moon in the middle of the sky, and the street was already silent, only the lanterns of a few small shops were still swaying. With the sound of tuk tuk horses' hooves, a carriage stopped in front of the alley, and Wang Jin saw a tall figure get out of the cart with a slight wobble and walk into the alley. She hurriedly got up and followed, and the slender figure in the movement was extremely fast, and in a few strokes she ran into the alley and followed the man.
Without hiding his tracks, Wang Hibiscus's footsteps gradually attracted the attention of the man in front. The man pressed his temples lightly, and slowly turned his head to see who was following him, but this look immediately drove him away from seven points of drunkenness. He had also imagined many times how he would deal with himself if he saw this family again, but when he really saw it, he could only purse his lips and couldn't say a word of the words he had thought about and even deliberately recited.
"What's the matter, Uncle Ye, you don't know me anymore?" Wang Jin's eyebrows browled at him and smiled, but the coldness in his eyes was indeed like an extremely sharp blade, which made Ye Qingmu's heart tremble.
"Hibiscus, Hibiscus, why are you here?" His eyes were a little evasive, and his voice unconsciously carried a little weakness.
"Today is the Dragon Boat Festival, I came to see Uncle Ye, I haven't seen you for a long time, and Uncle Ye didn't go to my new home to take a look when he came back!" The familiarity and closeness in Wang Jin's tone made Ye Qingmu stunned for a moment, and a little loving smile subconsciously appeared on his face, but this kindness stimulated Wang Jin on the other side, wanting to tear off this mask that deceived everyone.
"Uncle Ye, I came here today to ask you a few questions. Rest assured, I won't bother you for a long time, and no one will know that I've been here. Wang Jin stared at him and said coldly.
Ye Qingmu listened to her tone, and knew that she had resentment in her heart, but she was already hated for eternity when she made a mistake, so how could she justify it and ask for her understanding and forgiveness. For Wang Jin, he has love, pity, guilt, and anxiety in his heart, but what she wants to ask must be related to that person. Now that he still needs to walk on thin ice and wait carefully for the opportunity, how can he let Wang Jin know the truth, startle the snake, and his life is in danger?
He thought about it in his heart, and was about to speak, but he heard Wang Jian on the other side say again: "Uncle is going to make up lies to coax me again?" There was a little crying in her voice unconsciously, and Ye Qingmu couldn't bear to hear it.
"Since my family moved to the countryside, I have been determined to live a good life with my mother and younger siblings, so that my father can feel at ease underground." Wang Jian sniffed and continued, "But I always see my father in my sleep, and he looks at me like that, as if he has something to say but can't say it. During the day, I was often distracted and unable to concentrate on my work. She looked up at Ye Qingmu pleadingly and said, "Uncle Ye, I just want to know the truth about my father's death, even if you can't tell me if you have a hard time, then you can answer me a few questions and solve the mystery in my heart." At least I can make a deal with my father and live a little more peacefully. She blinked, and a teardrop the size of a bean rolled down.
Seeing her begging like this, Ye Qingmu couldn't harden his heart anymore, so he had to nod his head and agree, thinking in his heart that as long as he didn't tell her the key part.
When Wang Jin saw him agree, he was overjoyed, wiped his tears and said, "I know many things Uncle Ye is also embarrassed, and I don't ask much, Uncle Ye just needs to tell me yes or no." Seeing Ye Qingmu nodding, she lowered her voice and asked, "Meng An always liked to hang around the Cao Gang before, did he and Lord Zhu Helm meet before my father died?"
Ye Qingmu hesitated for a moment and replied, "Yes." ”
"Meng An is not a family, did someone else lend him the money to buy shares in the sea that time?" Wang Jin didn't say that it was Zhu Ming, she was afraid that Ye Qingmu would find out her intentions, so it would be bad to avoid answering or lying to coax her.
Ye Qingmu glanced at Wang Jian carefully, and saw that her eyes were clear, as if she could make people explore to the end, so he put aside the doubts in his heart and replied, "Yes." ”
"This Meng An has to join my father's shares, write him a contract to guarantee the principal, and ask my father to go to sea in person, does he expect that my father will have an accident?"
Ye Qingmu's body was shocked, and he immediately replied, "Impossible." ”
Wang Jian asked sharply: "Why is it impossible?" He hurt my family and lost money and shop, is it just luck? If it weren't for him, my dad wouldn't have gone to sea! ”
"Jin'er, Uncle knows what you want to ask, but it's not the time to tell you." Ye Qingmu looked very worried, and he explained: "Meng An did have the intention of taking advantage, but he really didn't know that something would happen to your father before. He just took a small profit from others and became a lobbyist. You must not be impulsive, do anything stupid, everything has your Uncle Ye! ”
Wang Jin's eyes widened suddenly, and he grabbed Ye Qingmu's sleeves tightly with both hands and said, "Uncle Ye, you know everything, right?" Then tell me, did my father die in an accident? And Uncle Wu, he is so experienced, how could he, how could he..."Tears fell from Wang Jin's cheeks, hitting Ye Qingmu's heart, just like when he faced the fire at sea that day, he shed tears full of remorse, pain and despair. Ye Qingmu's nose was sour, and he hugged Wang Jin, who was crying silently, into his arms, stroked her hair, and comforted: "Jin'er doesn't cry, uncle will tell you everything, but this is not the place." On the evening of the thirtieth day of the end of this month, I booked a table for your grandmother Ye at the Fuchun Tea House to celebrate her birthday, and you will wait for me there, and I will tell you everything in detail. ”
Hearing this, Wang Jian stopped crying, and confirmed to Ye Qingmu in disbelief: "Really? Uncle told me everything? ”
Ye Qingmu nodded heavily and said, "Really! I should have told you these things a long time ago, but I..."
"It's okay Uncle Ye, I trust you. Then I'll go to Fuchun to find you then! Wang Jian was already smiling, and her expression was very happy.
Ye Qingmu also breathed a sigh of relief, as if a big stone pressed on his heart had finally fallen to the ground. When he saw that it was really late, he was a little worried: "If you don't come home so late, my sister-in-law should be worried." Forget it, you will stay at my house tonight, and I will find someone to send you back tomorrow and talk to my sister-in-law. ”
Wang Jin hurriedly waved his hand and said: "I still don't live in your house, if people see it, it may be unfavorable to you, I still have a friend in the city, I can go there and make do with it, otherwise I can find an inn to live in." Then I'll go, you can go home quickly! ”
She originally wanted to come over and play Ye Qingmu's words, but she found that Ye Qingmu's performance was not as she imagined, and she was likely to misunderstand him. Since Ye Qingmu may have pretended to defect to Zhu Ming, he can't get too close to him, so as not to attract attention. After she and Ye Qingmu agreed to meet next time, they hurriedly said goodbye and went to Jiuqu Hu to go together.
It seems that I have to live in Jiang Qingliu's treehouse tonight!
