Chapter 51: Headless
Yu Hezhang sighed: "Hey...... Once, in the monthly examination of our college, a student in the town won the first place, surpassing him, and he thought that I had accepted bribes to make the child in the town get the first place! Besides, there is also good and evil among this rich man. The kid in the town is gifted and intelligent, and his family attaches great importance to his studies, and he has hired a private tutor from the capital for a lot of money, so it is natural that the child can take the first place in the exam, and he is more likely to be the first to be the top student this year! Yu Hezhang shook his head again and again.
"So you think it's hard for your daughter to be happy when she marries him?"
Yu Hezhang pursed his lips and was silent for a while, his face revealing sadness: "Yes...... If this person looks at the world with malice, then the world, no matter how good, is still evil. When you get along with him, you still need to be cautious and take care of his sensitive and fragile heart, because he will use malice to speculate on what you think, and with such a person, you are very tired, so I feel that Huanting will suffer and be tired in the future, and sure enough!" Yu Hezhang stretched out his right palm, sighed, and slapped his thigh hard, "I should have locked up Huanting and broken that Bai Zhankui's leg in the first place! I accompanied the Bai family's silver and let my daughter hate me for the rest of my life, and it was better than collecting her body now......" Yu Hezhang choked up again with regret.
It is not easy for parents to have children, and what they want to protect is the happiness and happiness of their children. But in the end, there is still a link that goes wrong, and mistakes are made again and again, resulting in big mistakes, which are irreparable after all.
Fu Mingrui sat next to Yu Hezhang and fell silent, it is difficult for a Qing official to judge family affairs, if Yu Huanting is alive, he, as an official, will not be able to judge her family affairs.
He sighed, and when he raised his eyes, he saw Duanmu Qingchen sneaking outside the window, he rolled his eyes, and sighed even more. How could there be such a sneaky prince in the Qianchao, and the future of the Qianchao is worrying.
Yu Hezhang calmed down for a while, wiped his tears, and looked at Fu Mingrui: "By the way, my lord, who harmed my girl, have you found out?"
"Got it. Fu Mingrui paused, and said heavily in Yu Hezhang's eager gaze, "It's Chen Jinhua." ”
When he landed, Yu Hezhang was like five thunderbolts, unbelievable.
She was superstitious about witches, and pricked the girl with a needle and begged for a child. When he first heard it, Fu Mingrui couldn't believe that there was such a stupid thing in the enlightened and advanced Qianchao, and it was still at the foot of the capital, which made him really hard to believe. But as the investigation deepened, what surprised him even more was that this phenomenon was especially common in the countryside.
There is no definite number of children to be born, so how can it be possible to give birth to a child if you give birth to a girl? If you give birth to a few more children, there will be both men and women. Coincidentally, Yu Huanting really gave birth to a son, which made the villagers believe in the witch.
"It's so foolish...... It's too ignorant......" Yu Hezhang was so angry that his lips trembled slightly, "That's why I want to open a academy!" The strong anger made Yu Hezhang's emotions become extremely excited, "Master Fu, do you know? My ancestors also came from the countryside, because of the ignorance there, my ancestors realized that they must study, and our family gradually became a scholarly family, and then taught people to educate people." That Chen Jinhua! She's Ya'er's own grandmother! How could she do such a thing?! Could it be ...... My daughter's head was also hidden by her?!" Yu Hezhang's eyes instantly turned frightened, and his face turned pale.
When Fu Mingrui heard Yu Hezhang's last words, her eyes immediately flashed with sharp light, and she asked in a deep voice: "Dean Yu, your daughter's head...... What's going on?"
Yu Hezhang's tears fell in an instant: "Don't tell you, adult, when I went to collect Huanting's body with Huanting's mother, we found Huanting's head...... No ......."
"What?!" This sentence made Fu Mingrui a little shocked. Because Yu Huanting committed suicide and drowned, how could she suddenly lose her head? Is there any hidden secret?
Yu Hezhang cried and shook his head: "That Bai family, it's really a sin! When we went to ask for Huanting's body, they didn't give it......" Yu Hezhang couldn't cry anymore, and he was even more painful when he mentioned that his daughter didn't even have a body, "Saying that Huanting married their Bai family, then death is also their ghost! We also know this reason, when our daughter marries, she is someone else's person, and this corpse is also their family's corpse, but I and Huanting's mother are really worried that they won't bury Huanting properly...... Also, in Wan Ting's last letter, there was an explanation......"
Yu Hezhang took out the last letter from the pile of letters with a trembling hand, took out the letter paper and put it in front of Fu Mingrui.
Fu Mingrui looked at the letter, and on the letter was Juanxiu's handwriting: If something happens to her daughter...... Ask your father to take care of your children......
Looking at the letter of payment, it was still in January this year, two months before she committed suicide, and it seems that she had no plans to take her children to Huangquan at that time.
"So we went to ask for Ya'er, and the Bai family didn't give it, we begged bitterly, and in the end, they said it directly, it turned out that they were asking for money!" Yu Hezhang slapped his thigh sadly, bitter and resentful.
Fu Mingrui remembered that the oral records of the villagers of Baijia Village also mentioned that the house in Baijia Town belonged to Yu Hezhang's family. At that time, Fu Mingrui also immediately wondered about this, why Ya'er gave it to the Yu family, but the Bai family lived in the Yu family's old house, if the Bai family still took Ya'er, then it was more reasonable for them to live in the town to give Ya'er a better environment.
Now, everything is clear.
"They opened their mouths, it is the old house in my town, give it, we will give it directly, as long as we can go back to Huanting and Ya'er, we will give it all. Yu Hezhang sighed bitterly and wiped his tears, "There is a folk legend since ancient times that the whole corpse must be collected, if there is no head, you can't find Huangquan Road, and you can't reincarnate ......" Yu Hezhang cried again, "I didn't expect their Bai family to be so vicious, my daughter died, and she was not allowed to be reincarnated and wandered in the world." That's right! They must have done evil!" Yu Hezhang wiped his tears with a determined expression, "Because, if there is no head, there is no one who harmed her, and there is no revenge! Now I understand! Wan Ting......" Yu Hezhang wept bitterly.
Fu Mingrui was surprised, but also angry, how many people will be harmed by these folk superstitions?
After Yu Hezhang's mood calmed down, Fu Mingrui asked the royal power to send Yu Hezhang out of the eight doors. He stood alone in the hall to calm down, and now, he needed to be calm, and he couldn't be swayed by this angry emotion to be just as a half-door owner!
