When the Liao family came out, Ren Yaoting was still standing quietly under the corridor in a daze.

Turning his head and seeing Liao's smug face, Ren Yaoting's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly stepped forward to support Liao: "Grandmother, how is it?" He agreed to what you said to your grandfather? ”

Seeing that it was his only granddaughter, the smile on his face grew bigger and bigger, and he patted Ren Yaoting holding his hand and said, "Naturally, I agreed." ”

Ren Yaoting was ecstatic, and became a little incoherent: "The relationship between the third sister and Han Gongzi...... Can't make it? ”

Hearing this, Liao looked at Ren Yaoting a little strangely: "How did you know that I was here to talk about this matter?" ”

Ren Yaoting hesitated: "Seeing that you were in a bad mood in the morning, I asked the people in your yard. ”

Liao didn't think it was a pestle, but was happy because his granddaughter cared about him.

"The third sister, she ......," Ren Yaoting wanted to know the exact news.

Liao said indifferently: "The marriage between the two families is not child's play, how can it be said that it will not be successful?" Listening to what they mean, it shouldn't be long before the Han family will send a matchmaker to the door. ”

Ren Yaoting heard the words as if he was struck by lightning: "What did you say?" Han Gongzi still wants to marry the third sister? ”

Liao glanced at Ren Yaoting a little strangely: "What are you doing so loudly?" ”

Ren Yaoting's face was pale, and he followed Liao Shi in despair.

A few days later, as soon as Ren Yaoqi came out of the study of the West Cross Courtyard, the maid Sang Yu reported to her: "Miss, someone from your grandfather's house has come, and Mrs. is recruiting someone to talk in the main room." ”

When Ren Yaoqi heard this, he turned around and walked towards the main room, and asked, "When will you come?" Why don't you tell me? ”

"It's been less than a quarter of an hour since I came in. You were in the study at the time, and the master did not allow the slaves and maids to enter and leave the study casually, and the slaves and maids did not dare to go in. Mulberry replied while keeping up with Ren Yaoqi's footsteps.

Ren Yaoqi didn't say anything, and went straight to the main room.

Li's two big maids, Xi'er and Que'er, were guarding the door, and there were no other mothers-in-law and maids around.

Xi'er and Que'er saw Ren Yaoqi coming over and glanced at each other. Xi'er was about to go in and report it, but Ren Yaoqi had already waved her hand and lifted the curtain to go in.

Xi'er and Que'er glanced at each other again, but they still stood honestly with their hands tied and did not move.

When Ren Yaoqi entered, there was no one in the bright room, and a subtle voice came from the east room on the right hand. She walked under the curtain and heard a female voice inside, "...... Xia Sheng also inquired that the old lady of the Han family was also capable. Because Han Jianping only gave birth to one daughter of her, and his wife died early, she was in charge of all matters in the family. However, after marrying Han Dongshan, she rarely went out and walked around, and only taught her husband and children in the inner house every day......"

Ren Yaoqi stood there and listened for a moment. I didn't go in, but I turned around and came out again.

Motioning for Xi'er to follow her aside, Ren Yaochi asked, "Is it Miss Yihong?" She didn't come alone, did she? ”

Xi'er was a little surprised that Ren Yaoqi came out so soon. And it didn't seem like she had gone in, but she still replied softly very quickly: "It's the girl who is here, and the one who came with her is the martial artist named Xia Sheng." However, his man couldn't enter the inner courtyard, so Mama Zhou arranged for someone to lead him to drink tea in the outer courtyard. ”

Ren Yaochi nodded: "It's talking inside, so I won't go in." With that, he turned and left.

When he walked to the gate of Ziwei Courtyard, Ren Yaoqi beckoned a mother-in-law: "You go to the outer courtyard and bring the person named Xia Sheng from my grandfather's mansion to Yiran Pavilion outside the second gate." ”

Yiran Pavilion is not in the inner courtyard. But it's very close to the second gate. On weekdays, most of the people in the outer courtyard are there, because the view around the pavilion is excellent, and there are people walking around. So I'm not afraid of any selfishness. The masters are going out, and if the sedan chair or carriage hasn't come yet, they will wait in the pavilion for a while, so it won't make people feel that anything is inappropriate for Ren Yaoqi to go there.

Ren Yaoqi went back to the room and changed his clothes to go out. Then he took two maids and two mothers-in-law to the second gate.

Xia Sheng had already been led and waited in Yiran Pavilion.

Seeing that it was Ren Yaoqi who came out, Xia Sheng was still a little surprised, and he thought that Mama Zhou had called him.

"Miss Table." Xia Sheng bowed his head and saluted.

Ren Yaochi nodded: "Is it Jizhou that you went to this time?" ”

Xia Sheng arched his hand and replied: "Miss Hui, it's small." ”

"I have a few questions I want to ask you, and I'm afraid what Yi Hong relayed is not as clear as you." Ren Yaoqi looked at Xia Sheng and said with a smile.

"Miss Cousin, excuse me."

"Ren Jianping, the former patriarch of the Han family, only gave birth to a daughter, Han Dongshan can't take over the position of patriarch, so who is the current patriarch?"

"The current patriarch of the Han family is Han Jianxin, a distant cousin of Han Jianping. He is nearly twenty years younger than Han Jianping, about the same age as Han Dongshan, but his generation is older, so Han Dongshan elected him as the patriarch. Although Han Jianxin is the patriarch, he relies on Han Dongshan very much, and the big and small affairs of the clan will be discussed with Han Dongshan before making a decision. A few years ago, Han Dongshan proposed that the Han family should run a clan study, and Han Dongshan was responsible for the expenses of the clan study, so Han Dongshan's prestige in the clan was still above Han Jianxin, the patriarch. ”

"Oh? Didn't the people in that tribe say that he was not good? Ren Yaoqi raised his eyebrows slightly.

Xia Sheng thought about it, but said, "That's not it." Han Jianping actually has one or two cousins who are slightly closer, and their attitude towards Han Dongshan is not as distant as those who are more distant. There is a cousin named Han Jianmin who is Han Jianping, I heard that Han Jianping had planned to inherit the family business by his youngest son, but then I don't know why Han Jianping dispelled this idea, not only handed over all the property in the family to his son-in-law Han Dongshan to take care of, let Han Dongshan enter the ancestral hall of the Han family, but also deliberately planned for Han Dongshan's prestige in the clan. ”

Later, Han Jianping died, Han Jianmin originally planned to join forces with several clan brothers to expel Han Dongshan, but was preemptively punished by Han Dongshan, and after a few years Han Jianmin died, and no one in the Han family took the lead in stirring up trouble, after all, Han Dongshan still took good care of those clansmen of the Han family. The little one went to Jizhou this time, and the people in the Han clan almost said good things about Han Dongshan, and a few people who were close to the branch did not dare to blatantly say that Han Dongshan was not good, only Han Jianmin's youngest son Han Zuwang seemed to be very dissatisfied with Han Dongshan and said a lot of bad things. However, the words he said, the small ones have also been verified, and most of them are slanderous words. ”

Xia Sheng was a little unimpressed when he said this, and he looked down on Han Zuwang.

Ren Yaoqi couldn't help but be thoughtful. Han Zuwang's character is none of her business, she just wants to mess up the family affairs of the Han family and the Ren family.

"What is the situation in this Han Zuwang's family?"

Because Han Zuwang is one of the few people in the Han family who is willing to say that Han Dongshan is not good, Xia Sheng really checked this person's affairs seriously, and replied when he asked: "Han Zuwang's father, Han Jianmin, has three sons, and he originally wanted to pass on his youngest son to Han Jianping, so after Han Jianmin's death, Han Zuwang, who was originally the most favored youngest son, did not get much property. After the three brothers separated, he also took the family to the ancestral house assigned by the eldest and refused to leave, relying on the help of the two brothers from time to time. When he was drunk, he always said to people that everything in Han Dongshan now should have been his, and a person with a foreign surname was not eligible to get the Han family's property. His dissatisfaction with Han Dongshan should also be due to this reason. ”

"Oh? Han Dongshan is talking such nonsense from him? Ren Yaoqi asked with a smile.

Han Dongshan's ability is so great, he can settle all the people of the Han clan, why can't he settle a Han Zuwang?

Xia Sheng shook his head: "Han Zuwang wholeheartedly thinks that Han Dongshan's property is his, and he has obtained a face, which can be described as soft and hard, and his two brothers are also very troubled by him. This man is a thorn. He once said that his father died because of his opposition to Han Dongshan, and if he had an accident that day, it must be Han Dongshan's black hand. So no one dared to touch him. ”

Ren Yaoqi was a little interested in this person when he heard this, and he didn't look like a completely brainless person.

"In addition to mentioning in the last letter that you were asked to check the relatives of the Han family, I also asked you to check the details of Han Dongshan, did you find out anything?" Ren Yaoqi asked again.

Xia Sheng's answer before made her very satisfied, she had been in contact with Xia Sheng for a period of time in her previous life, and she still had some understanding of his way of doing things. Therefore, in her last letter, she named Xia Sheng to go to Jizhou.

The little one asked an old man who used to work in the Han family, Han Dongshan did flee from the south back then. In the 32nd year of Qinglong, there was a drought in the south, followed by a locust plague, and many people died of starvation, and many people fled to Yanbei, which was relatively less affected. It was at this time that Han Dongshan fled to Jizhou with a group of people. Once Han Jianping went out, he met a few victims who were about to starve to death and came out to rob money, and were rescued by Han Dongshan, and then Han Jianping took him back to Han's house. According to Han Dongshan, his family members are dead, and there are some distant relatives from his mother's side in Yanbei who came to take refuge, but after a long time, he experienced the invasion of the Liao people, and he could no longer find his distant relatives, so he stayed in the Han family. After that, he won Han Jianping's appreciation and recruited him. ”

"Can't you find anything else besides that?" Ren Yaochi frowned, "He didn't mention his former family himself?" ”

Everyone will have a birth background, she doesn't believe that Han Dongshan will jump out of the stone, and she doesn't believe that he has not left any flaws for so many years.
