Thinking of this, Rong Yuxue looked at Meng Tianchu with an indifferent face, picked a well-blooming rose, and turned it in his hand.

"Yes, it's a good person, and the bride price is quite a lot."

Meng Tianchu saw that Murong Yuxue seemed to be indifferent, could this be the woman who snuggled in his arms and pityfully with him in the past, and called herself "Tianchu" softly?

Meng Tianchu gritted his teeth and spit out from his mouth word by word: "You said that old man is very good?" It's all old people who are about to die, and you actually say that you are a good person, since it is good, then why did you throw away other people's bride price? Are you trying to me off? ”

Murong Yuxue smiled faintly and said, "Why should I be angry with you, Meng Ye? I didn't figure it out at the time, but after a night, I figured it out, and people didn't let me fill the house, and it used to be Mrs., eight sedan chairs, and Ming Media was marrying, what's wrong? ”

This sentence completely tore Meng Tianchu's heart apart, the woman he loved in front of him said that his heart was up, and he couldn't give her anything, what title, what main house, so what did he say about love or not?

Meng Tianchu felt a heart-rending pain, he quickly covered his chest, frowned, bit his lower lip with his teeth, and sat down on a stone bench.

When Murong Yuxue saw Meng Tianchu's appearance, she almost couldn't help but rush forward and hold him in her arms, but she still didn't, she turned around, not wanting to see Meng Tianchu's appearance, and after a while, she said, "Master Meng." Take care, Xue Xue doesn't have the woman who lives to be you in this life, I hope you can in the next life. ”

Where the words fell, a drop of clear tears fell on the bluestone slab, splashing countless broken dots, just like Murong Zhenxue's own center of the earth, which was shattered, making her unable to breathe. can only go away suddenly. Only one of his beloved men was left behind, sad.

…—

Three days later.

Meng Tianchu took Zhu Hao to the yamen early in the morning. Seeing that Wang Yi had just entered the door, he said, "I just came to call you, let's go to Yulan Village today." “

Wang Yi said: "Miss Murong is also here today, do you want to call her?" ”

Meng Tianchu paused, and said expressionlessly: "She shouldn't have done it in the yamen for a long time, don't you say that I forgot about it, when will I tell Dong Weng." You have to find a scribe quickly, otherwise you will be out of touch and it will be difficult to do it in the future. ”

"And now? You don't think it's a call or not. ”

Meng Tianchu waved his sleeves and said: "Let's call, if she doesn't leave for a day, she still has to be a scribe for a day, and the yamen still gives this money." With that, he turned around and walked out the door.

Wang Yi saw Meng Tianchu's tone of voice and knew that he was still angry. So I didn't dare to say more. turned around and called Murong Yuxue.

The group drove three carriages to Yulan Village.

Meng Tianchu and his entourage decided to go to the snow garden first to ventilate Li Zheng, and when they came to the gate of the snow garden, they happened to see Lin Ruofan. I saw that she was talking to a few subordinates.

"Today, Miss Xue'er must do what she ordered before she comes back, the grandson of the king in the neighboring village will be a hundred days, after noon, the lord and the lady will go, the gift must be ready, the gift list I have asked the former housekeeper Liu to draw up, remember to take it to the lord for a while..."

After hearing this, the subordinates all went to get busy, and Lin Ruofan saw Meng Tianchu and them, so he greeted them with a smile, and after saying ten thousand blessings, he said: "Meng Ye didn't say hello when he came, Ruofan was really sluggish." ”

Meng Tianchu was about to speak, when a maid came next to him, bowed his head and said to Lin Ruofan: "Steward Lin, the eldest lady asked you to go." ”

Lin Ruofan said to the maid: "Tell the eldest lady, just say that Meng Ye and they are here, I will greet here first, if there is any emergency, I will go again." ”

The maid nodded, turned and left.

Meng Tianchu saw that Lin Ruofan's complexion was also much better, and the clothes on his body were also changed from coarse cloth to satin, although it was not as good as the ladies and grandmothers at home, but at least it was different from the ordinary maidens, so that no one could bully this girl.

From the smile on her face, she could know that after the last incident, Ye Chu should have been much better to Lin Ruofan.

"What? When did Ruofan also become the Ye family's housekeeper? ”

Ruofan looked at Meng Tianchu, the corners of his eyes and eyebrows were full of happiness, and he only smiled implicitly at the corner of his mouth, and said: "It is the trust of the lord and the wife, so Ruofan is the housekeeper, there are people in the original clan who criticize me, saying that I have been married and have children, and there has never been a woman in charge, which violates the ancestral system, but the master said that I am a lot of good, and it just so happens that the housekeeper in the past is also old, and he wants to sue the old man and return to his hometown, and he also strongly recommends me, so Ruofan just..."

Meng Tianchu saw that Lin Ruofan swept away his previous depressed and unhappy mood, and he was also happy for her, he had been sad for Murong Yuxue for the past three days, and today he finally saw a person and thing that made him happy, this is good, he can't keep being depressed like this.

Meng Tianchu said: "That's good, as long as you're happy." ”

Lin Ruofan smiled and welcomed Meng Tianchu and his party into the hall, and then instructed his subordinates to call Ye Chu, and then personally served tea to everyone, looking very capable, which Meng Tianchu did not find out before, he always thought that Lin Ruofan was just a submissive and weak little woman, but now it seems that it may not be said that one day, this docile beauty on weekdays is still a promising woman.

After a while, Ye Chu walked into the hall with the second lady with a smile, Meng Tianchu quickly got up, and after saluting each other, Meng Tianchu said: "This case is now going to continue to be investigated, and I can't help but disturb Lord Li Zheng and tell you." ”

Ye Chu said with a smile: "The case naturally has to be investigated, and Meng Ye is naturally welcome to come to the house from time to time, and the contact relationship is also very good." ”

Meng Tianchu said: "I came today, I also want to ask, Yulan seems to be very popular in the village on weekdays, so is there any place that is not compatible with Yulan, you are Lizheng, so you naturally know some of the situation in the village, so Meng Mou came to ask you first." ”

Ye Chu laughed dryly twice and stroked his beard with his hand. patted his bright forehead, thought for a moment, and then said, "I really don't know who has a grudge against Yulan or doesn't get along." ”

Since the second lady was almost given a break by Ye Chu last time because of Lin Ruofan, she has been in awe of Meng Tianchu. See from

Saying this, he leaned over to the old man and whispered something.

Ye Chu said in surprise: "Is there such a thing? How did I not know? ”

Meng Tianchu said: "What? ”

Ye Chu hurriedly walked up to Meng Tianchu, smiled awkwardly, showed a mouthful of yellow teeth, and said stupidly: "It's all a rumor between ladies. I don't know if it's true or not. This..."

Meng Tianchu said: "Let's hear it." ”

Ye Chu saw that Meng Tianchu insisted. It's hard to say anything, so he hurriedly motioned to the second lady to tell Meng Tianchu.

The second lady cleared her throat, leaving only Lin Ruofan, and the others all went out, feeling very mysterious.

"It is said that it is the nurse of my family Rui'er, and her man has been secretly peeping at Yulan, and once, he also said to my nurse in person. I'm going to give her a divorce and marry Yulan and go home. ”

Meng Tianchu said: "So what? Magnolia is beautiful, so there will naturally be no fewer men who want to marry her, which is not surprising! ”

The second lady had the excited expression of a rural woman talking about right and wrong, and hurriedly said: "Meng Ye, you don't know, Nawang is a notoriously naughty scoundrel in our village, and he often likes to tease the little daughter-in-law and girl's family in the village. ”

Ye Chu saw that Meng Tianchu was not interested in this. Then he said to the second lady: "Where are you talking so much nonsense. Don't go too far, you think you're fighting the long-tongued women in the village. ”

The second lady was a little embarrassed, and covered her mouth with a towel and said twice. continued: "Nawangcai has always liked to go to Yulan's door to flirt with Yulan, and there are few people in this village who don't know it. Once, he secretly climbed over the wall into Yulan's house, and was driven out by Yulan with a broom, and later, in order to prevent other good and lustful men in the village from being like him, Yulan found someone to raise the fence and specially raised a dog. ”

Ye Chu finally couldn't bear it anymore, and said angrily: "What kind of nonsense are you talking about, let you tell Meng Ye if there are any people in this village who have a grudge against Yulan, what are you talking nonsense!" ”

Meng Tianchu said with a smile: "It's not in the way, probably the second lady wants to tell us that because Nawang can't get Yulan's favor, so she has the heart to hurt her." ”

And Madame quickly nodded, and said with a smile: "That's what I mean, Meng Ye is really amazing." I'm not talking about right and wrong in front of people, but I have a basis for what I say. A few days ago, the nurse told me that the dog in Yulan's house was poisoned by her man. ”

Finally got to the point.

Meng Tianchu hurriedly asked, "The fierce nurse of your family is that Wangcai's woman?" ”

Seeing that she had finally said what Meng Tianchu wanted to hear, the second lady nodded excitedly and said, "Exactly." ”

No wonder, it's really not a family that doesn't enter the door, it seems that this family is not a good thing, the woman is ugly, and the man with the same dog name that Chidi often says in his mouth will be so bad.

Judging from Meng Tianchu's autopsy of the dog, the dog should have died before Yulan, probably Nawang was a thief, so he poisoned the dog first, and then did it to Yulan.

Meng Tianchu said: "This nurse tells the second lady everything, but I don't think Rui'er's age seems to need a nurse, right?" ”

The second lady said: "Actually, it's been almost a year, the nurse is just familiar with me, so she often comes to me to chat, anyway, her man doesn't do anything, and the land is barren, she can at least have a meal when she comes to me, I see that she is really good to my family Ruier, so I don't mind." ”

"Is her man in the village now?"

The second lady nodded and said, "It should be there, I came over for dinner with the nurse yesterday." I also asked me how your case was investigated, and when I heard that the pillar was not the murderer, it seemed that he immediately became nervous, and even the bowl was broken on the ground. ”

Lin Ruofan also took over the conversation and said: "That's it, I was there yesterday, Nawang was a splash at first glance, and as soon as he entered the door, his eyes turned around and he died." ”

The second lady pointed at Lin Ruofan and said with a smile: "When Wang saw Ruofan yesterday, his eyes never left, and he told me when to marry Ruofan to him." ”

Meng Tianchu and Lin Ruofan both spat on the ground and said, "He wants to!" ”

Everyone looked at the two of them in surprise, Lin Ruofan immediately lowered his head in embarrassment, his face turned red when he brushed the ground, Meng Tianchu also laughed dryly, quickly turned around and secretly stuck out his tongue, and inadvertently collided with Murong Yuxue's eyes, and there was no complaint or anger in that look, but indifference, a strange look.

Ye Chu coughed twice, saw Meng Tianchu turn around, and hurriedly played a round, but the topic was still on Na Wangcai.

Ye Chu said: "If you say that, Wangcai is still suspicious, since there is a suspicion, it is better to investigate it clearly." ”

Meng Tianchu turned around, stopped thinking about Murong Yuxue for the time being, and said: "It's okay, thank you Second Lady for telling us this today, no matter what, it can be regarded as having a clue, then let's go to the village to have a look." ”

The second lady hurriedly lowered her eyebrows and said softly: "Fortunately, what I said is useful, otherwise the master would blame me for talking too much." ”

Ye Chu laughed a few times to hide his embarrassment.

Walking to the door, Meng Tianchu said to Ye Chu: "I heard Ruofan just now say that Lord Li Zheng is going to the neighboring village as a guest today, let's go to the village and ask casually, and we will know where Nawang lives, you don't have to go together, or you won't be able to catch up." ”

Ye Chu was really sorry when he heard that he was following his heart, as the saying goes: "People are shameless, ghosts are afraid." Although he is the head of a village, where will these pranksters tell you what reason, they will be respectful and polite to you in front of people, and they may not know how to do some small actions to harm you, so it's just right not to go.
