Chapter 94: Denial Chapter 95: Simple and Rude
He Huan looked at Xie San in amazement, and seeing that he didn't seem to be joking, she looked at the sky wordlessly.
Xie San caught a smile from the corner of He Huan's mouth, although it was only a flash, but he felt that her smile implied disdain. He was enraged by her attitude.
"What, unwillingly? Because of Shen Jinglun? Xie San's tone did not change, but his eyes were slightly dark.
"You, angry?" He Huan asked.
Xie San hid the displeasure in his heart, looked away, and replied, "I'm not angry. ”
He Huan didn't refute, but just stated indifferently: "Even if the He family has not declined, I can't deserve the word 'marry' for Xie Sanye." Now the word 'responsible' and the word 'acceptance' are already a great favor that you can give me. In your opinion, I should be grateful to you. ”
"Isn't it?" Xie San snorted, and it was difficult to hide the embarrassment of being guessed on his face.
"Yes." He Huan nodded, "From your point of view, this is naturally the case." But from my point of view, there is no husband in the concubine room, only the lord and wife; The concubine has no power to raise children, she is not a wife, she is not a mother, she is just a subordinate. ”
"What are you trying to express? Shouldn't men take concubines, or shouldn't there be a system of three wives and four concubines in the world? ”
He Huan shook his head slowly and sighed in a low voice: "Everyone's demands are different. Some people want a stable life, three meals a day; When someone has a strong relationship with someone else's family, they can't help themselves; There are also people who are forced to have no choice but to exchange their lives for the peace and joy of their families. People always have one kind of choice or another, and what I just said is just my own will. Wife. Mother. Grandmother. Great-grandmother, this is the life of most women, and I am just an ordinary woman. ”
Xie San listened to her words, and for a while he couldn't tell what he was feeling in his heart. As she said, his willingness to take her as a concubine is already a great favor, and he will even be reprimanded by his family for it, and she actually said. That's not what she's looking for. She doesn't know how to do it, let alone a serious concubine, even if it is a girl in the room, there are a lot of women who flock to it.
Thinking of this, Xie San blurted out: "According to what you say, you shouldn't have chosen Shen Jinglun at all." He wanted to add one more sentence, unless you have special means, Shen Jinglun will give you the title of a concubine at most. Looking at her pale little face, he finally swallowed the words.
He Huan didn't respond to Xie San's words immediately, but the smile on her face became misty and distant. Shen Jinglun has never been her active choice. When she was still Lin Xiyan. For the sake of the Lin family, she had to choose him. Now she has transformed into He Huan. For the sake of their son, she had to choose him again. Is this fate?
He Huan smiled bitterly, but in a blink of an eye, she thought of their meeting in "Cuizhuxuan" and his various performances in the study. He loves Lin Xiyan deeply, even if there is no Nianxi, she should return to him. Besides, he is a unique and perfect man, he let her see a different world, and know the world outside Jizhou, how could she not love him?
Xie San lowered his head and stared at He Huan's side face. Of all the women he had seen, she was by no means stunning, but from his point of view at the moment, her eyelashes were thick and curly, her nose was delicate and straight, and her lips were not red enough, but they were well shaped. He stepped forward to see her clearly, only to find that her pupils had lost focus, and she was stunned. Who did she think of? Shen Jinglun?
Xie San coughed heavily.
He Huan suddenly came back to his senses, and replied lightly: "He is different." ”
Overnight, Xie San's heart was like a lump of cotton flowers, and he sneered: "If what I said just now came from Shen Jinglun's mouth, you must have nodded and agreed without thinking, right?" ”
"No, it won't." He Huan shook his head, "I can't promise what will happen in the future, but at the moment, I won't agree." ”
couldn't tell the reason, Xie San intuitively believed that she was telling the truth. She lied to him more than once, and even framed him, but he inexplicably believed it, and with her pride, she disdained to lie at this moment. Is she proud? She can't even be counted as a "down-and-out daughter", where does she get her pride!
Xie San walked out of the shade of the tree irritably, took two steps and turned back to ask her, "What's different about him?" Do you really know him? ”
He Huan looked up at Xie San in the sun. His wheat-colored skin glowed faintly in the sun, and his eyes were not as deep and bottomless as Shen Jinglun's, but they were also dark and bright. The scar on his cheek had not yet completely faded, leaving a shallow mark that only added a bit of flaw to his beautiful features. It was only at this moment that she realized that his facial features were very beautiful, and if it weren't for the fact that his skin was not white enough, I am afraid that most women in the world would not be as beautiful as him.
"Look at what, look!" Xie San glared at He Huan with a vicious voice, he was too familiar with this kind of look.
He Huan hurriedly looked away, suddenly remembered another matter, and asked: "Third master, at the Yongji pawnshop before, Lin Zhutou let me read the account book......
"I said it earlier, it has nothing to do with me." Xie San interrupted He Huan.
He Huan could only look at him suspiciously. Thinking about it, since Shen Jinglun is so sure that the yamen will not trouble the He family, Xie San has denied it again, so it must be Shen Jinglun who intercedes for the He family, what else does she have to wonder?
Thinking of this, He Huan took the initiative to stand up and said with a smile: "Third Master Xie, I'm not so uncomfortable anymore." Thank you, thank you, and let me sit down and rest. ”
Xie San's heart suddenly felt the embarrassment of being seen through. He decided that in the future, when he married a wife, he must not marry a smart woman, and a wise woman is too unlovable. He didn't want to talk nonsense with her anymore, no matter what she liked Shen Jinglun, he turned around and walked towards the door.
He Huan followed Xie San and walked a few steps. Seeing that he was about to step out of the door, she stopped again.
"Why don't you leave?" Xie San's eyes.
"Third Master Xie, I shouldn't have been too talkative, but ......" her face showed a bit of hesitation.
"What are you talking about?" Xie San felt that she should be a cheerful and neat person.
"Maybe I shouldn't be too troublesome, but you and Uncle Shen, is there any misunderstanding between you?" She could feel that they had no kindness towards each other. Especially last time, when Shen Jinglun questioned her, "Do you know who he is", he rarely had such strong emotions; And what about Xie San? He had just asked her. Does she really know Shen Jinglun.
Xie San waved his hand and ordered the head catcher guarding the door to walk away. He Huan didn't answer and asked: "You and him." Ever talked about me? ”
"Not really." He Huan shook his head, "Third master, I'll say a little more, there are some things, maybe I can make it clear in person, and there will be nothing to do." ”
"Don't speculate!" Xie San snorted, "What misunderstanding can I have with him!" ”
He Huan saw that Xie San looked reluctant to talk more, thinking that it was a matter between others after all. Then he said no more and went straight into the carriage.
Xie San watched the carriage disappear into the bustling crowd. His conversation with He Huan was just a tea time, but it made him more curious about her. She didn't want to know his identity, and she didn't want to be a concubine. She was afraid of the corpse, she would vomit, and she endured the discomfort, bent on finding out the truth. She is both ordinary and not ordinary, what kind of woman is she?
In the carriage, He Huan was not as entangled as Xie San. Although she talked about Shen Jinglun to Xie San. But it is not for her to meddle in the affairs of men. She believes that the misunderstanding between Xie San and Shen Jinglun can be resolved. It's just a matter of time, what she should be worried about is the ignorant women and children of the He family who haven't realized the seriousness of the matter.
He Huan stepped out of the carriage at the gate of the He family, signaled Uncle Zhang to act according to the plan of the previous day, and turned around and walked towards the gate. Before she could cross the threshold, she heard a commotion inside the second door.
Chapter 95 is simple and crude
When He Huan stepped into the second door, he saw Cao's waist crossed with one hand, and pointed at Zou's nose with the other hand and scolded: "What kind of person is me, what kind of person am I, you can explain it to me clearly." I'm an aunt, how about it, the third room has already been separated, what qualifications do you have to teach me! You just have a few stinky money, and you want to point fingers in front of the old lady and tell you that there is no door! Her loud voice suppressed Zou's voice, and her fingers almost pointed at Zou's nose, so anxious that Zou's face was red.
He Baihai stood not far from the two of them and looked around. He originally disdained to have a verbal dispute with the woman, but when he saw that the Cao family was pressing forward step by step, and the Zou family had no power to resist, he turned his head, slapped Cao's fingers away with one palm, and said to her in a vicious voice: "Speak and speak, what do you mean!" ”
Before He Baihai's voice fell, Cao Shi burst into tears and shouted loudly: "The little uncle beat someone, you husband and wife joined forces to bully me, a helpless widow, I fought with you!" With that, she reached out and pinched He Bohai's neck.
He Baihai instinctively wanted to swing her away. Before he could exert his strength, Cao Shi "poofed", sat on the ground, and screamed: "Killed, set fire, do you want to kill people and kill your mouth?" ”
Don't say that it is He Baihai and his wife, even He Huan at the second gate was stunned. Before, she just told the Cao family that if she couldn't come back in time, she must "stay" He Baihai and his wife, how could she use all the means of crying, making trouble and hanging herself?
He Huan stopped and looked into the courtyard, only Bai Shao was at a loss to circle around the Cao family. She looked into the main room, the door closed. She looked towards the west chamber again, and the door was hidden, but the door of the west courtyard was closed tightly.
He Huan observed the situation in the courtyard for only half a moment, and when she looked at the Cao family again, she saw that she was already half-kneeling on the ground, grabbing He Baihai's trouser legs, and shouting at him to beat people, and wanted to arrest him to go to the yamen and let the county order make the decision for her.
Although Zou doesn't have any big ideas, he is not like Tao, soft and pretentious. Seeing that Cao had exhausted the rogue methods of shrews, she was no longer polite to her, and when she broke her fingers with both hands, she pulled her away from her husband's trouser leg and grabbed Cao's hair again.
Cao naturally wouldn't let her do whatever she wanted, so he grabbed Zou's neck and grinned and wanted to bite her shoulder.
Not to be outdone, Zou hugged Cao and wanted to suppress her with his body. It's a pity that she is Cao's opponent, she turned over with a harrier and pressed Zou under her. Zou refused to admit defeat and wanted to counter the other party, the two rolled together in an instant, and they didn't forget to scold in their mouths, which made He Baihai stunned.
He Huan was stunned, hurriedly stepped forward, bent down to pull the Cao family, and asked He Baihai to pull the Zou family.
When Cao saw He Huan, it was like seeing a long-lost relative, and he cried with a handful of snot and tears: "Miss, although you are not my biological child, I have raised you for ten years, and I have worked hard to maintain this family, and there is no merit and hard work." But your third uncle's family is fine, just entered the door, one moment said that I was not filial, abused your aunt and grandmother, and then said that this family was all defeated by us. She wiped her tears, turned her head and pointed at He Baihai's nose and scolded, "You should talk about it." How did we ruin this home? When the family is separated. You've taken the only two shops that make money. You obviously want to starve us old and weak women and children......"
"You're spewing blood!" He Bohai's face turned the color of pork liver.
"Why am I spewing blood?" Cao pushed He Huan away and said angrily: "How did those two shops get into your hands, do you think we don't know?" She pointed to the sky and said sonorously: "People are doing it, the sky is watching, this is the truth I have only figured out in the past few days, and I will give it to you today!" ”
He Huan grabbed the Cao family and persuaded him: "Aunt Cao." I invited my third uncle and aunt to come over and discuss with them on business. She paused, looked up at He Baihai and said: "Third uncle, I went to look for He Daxu in the morning, guess what, he was killed last night, cut his throat with a knife, and then was stabbed more than ten times. ”
"How is that possible!" He Bohai's face turned from the color of pig liver to as white as paper.
"Look at the reaction of the third uncle. Do you know not only Feng Jiyang, but also He Daxu? ”
"You. How dare you take my word! He Baihai glared at He Huan.
He Huan looked back at him fearlessly, with a shallow smile on the corner of his mouth, as if he had already seen him through.
In the short stalemate, He Baihai intuitively felt that his heart sank heavily. He Huan's confidence made him feel bottomless, and the Cao family dared to openly shout with them, which made him feel that He Huan and the others had mastered the inside story. What worries him even more is He Daxu, how could he die, could it be that He Huan lied to him?
He Huan saw through his thoughts at a glance, and said with a smile: "Not only He Daxu, but also Luo Lijun of the Luo family is also dead, as well as the Qian family, the Lu family, three years ago, everyone who invested in the Lin family's fleet, someone died, all of them sealed their throats with a knife, and the death was terrifying." If the third uncle doesn't believe me, he can send someone to ask. Although the news on the street has not yet spread at this time, all the arrests of the Yamen are known, and He Daxu's body has also been transported back to the Yamen by the Servants. ”
While He Huan was talking, Zou couldn't help but look at He Baihai, and his face couldn't hide his worry. He Huan saw that there was no surprise on the faces of their husband and wife, and his heart was even clearer. She raised her voice and told Bai Shao to take He Baihai and his wife to the living room to sit for a while, and said to Aunt Cao that she helped her go back to the house to wash.
He Huan and Aunt Cao walked a few steps, and when they turned around, they saw He Baihai standing at the second gate and ordering his subordinates. She smiled lightly and asked Aunt Cao in a low voice, "Aunt Cao, is it the third uncle who embarrassed you?" She looked at her stained clothes.
"I can't say it's difficult." Cao Shi patted the dust on his body, brushed his hair again, and then said, "As soon as they entered the door, they shouted to see your aunt and grandmother. Your aunt and grandmother can't wait to see their expressions right away. I can't figure out what's going on, anyway, if they want to meet and whisper, I just can't let them see each other. She pursed her lips and chuckled, "In this world, the most direct method is also the most effective method." ”
He Huan looked towards Wei's door. "Aunt Cao, is it difficult to ......" She walked a few steps quickly, and when she reached the door of the main house, she saw that there was a lock on the door.
Cao Shi unhurriedly took out the key from his underwear, opened the door, and made a "please" gesture to He Huan. When He Huan stepped into the room, he saw that Wei was solidly tied to a chair, like a big meat dumpling, with a white cloth stuffed in her mouth, and she was glaring at them with angry and resentful eyes.
He Huan didn't want to laugh, but when he saw that Wei couldn't move, he could only shout "woo", and couldn't help but laugh. treats an ignorant shrew like Wei, and she also appreciates the simple and rude way of dealing with it.
Seeing that He Huan didn't mean to blame, Cao Shi smiled and said, "Miss, don't blame me for acting recklessly. ”
He Huan was quite surprised by Cao's transformation. Thinking that she had tied Cao to the table leg, she looked at her and said, "How can I blame Aunt Cao, it should be me to apologize to you, I was ......in a hurry at that time."
"What is the past, what is it for!" Cao waved his hand, indicating that he never cared.
"Woohoo." Seeing that he had been ignored, Wei whimpered and writhed. She relied on the fact that she was He Huan's own grandmother, guessing that she would not dare to do anything to herself, but she was actually tied up by the shrew of the Cao family, and she also stuffed a white cloth in her mouth, as if she was a prisoner. Later, she will be free, see how she cleans her up, let her know who is the real head of the family.
He Huan glanced at Wei's expression and couldn't help but shake his head secretly. Until this moment, Wei is still obsessed! She just didn't see her struggle, and continued to say to Cao's: "Auntie, I really embarrassed you just now. I understand. What are you doing. It's all for this family. In order to tide everyone over the difficulties, there is no selfishness at all. With that, she glanced meaningfully at Wei.
Cao didn't know that He Huan's words were actually said to Wei, but he felt that he was praising her. She was embarrassed and replied: "Actually, it's nothing, to put it bluntly, everything I do is for Jing'er, so don't think of me so well." ”
He Huan asked with a smile: "Did my aunt let my eldest aunt stay with Brother Jing in the West Cross Courtyard?" ”
Cao nodded. whispered: "I'm a rough person, I don't care about anything, but I don't want Jing'er to feel embarrassed, so it's better not to let him know about some things." ”
He Huan stared at Cao in Wei's "whimpering". She suddenly found that since Cao's "illness" was cured, she seemed to be reborn. Could it be that something happened that she didn't know about?
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Cao lowered his eyes to hide his emotions.
"It's my aunt who impresses me." She shook Cao's hand gently, and said solemnly: "Last time I ordered Bai Shao to tie up my aunt, it was my ...... wrong."
"Whatever is right or wrong, everything has been said, and the past has been erased!"
"Woooooo Wei shook his chair vigorously. The eyes seem to say, don't be coy in front of me!
He Huan still ignored her. Just let Cao go back to the house and wash. When Cao walked out of the room and closed the door, He Huan set his eyes on Wei. She didn't take out the white silk in Wei's mouth, just looked at her and said disappointedly: "Auntie, to this day, you still haven't understood that we are a family, and we have to tide over the difficulties together." Do you think that if you confess to your third uncle, everything can be covered up invisibly? Tell you, impossible! ”
He Huan found a chair and sat down, sighed before saying: "You have been tied to the chair, even Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang are no longer standing on your side, just now you were bent on punishing Aunt Cao, what words do you let me use to describe you?" ”
Wei Shi glared at He Huan with angry eyes, "woo woo" and shouted, and he didn't know whether Lu Dao was arguing or denying. He Huan sat for a while, until Wei stopped struggling, and then she got up and took out the white cloth in her mouth.
Wei shouted hysterically: "I am your grandmother, I gave birth to your father!" ”
He Huan answered lightly: "I went to He Daxu's house in the morning, and he died." She repeated what she had said to He Baihai earlier, took a few steps back and sat back in her chair.
Wei Shi looked at her in a daze, forgot to struggle, and asked for a long time: "Who is Luo Lijun, and what are the Qian family and the Lu family you said?" ”
He Huan said unhurriedly: "I told the third uncle the same thing just now, but he didn't ask anything. Auntie, you say, does he recognize them? ”
"Your third uncle knows He Daxu, what's strange."
"What about Luo Lijun? What about the people of the Qian family? What about the people of the Lu family? Seeing that Cao's was silent, she said again: "Auntie, didn't you figure it out yesterday, it was He Daxu who told the third uncle that my grandfather left a house for you, why did you forget it today?" ”
Wei stiffened his neck and said, "I didn't say anything, I didn't do anything, it was Cao's who went crazy and couldn't help but tie me up." She twisted her body and said angrily, "You still don't let me go!" ”
"Auntie, to tell you the truth, I thought you were involved in the thief, but at this moment, it seems that you don't have that ability!"
"You!" Wei Shi was angry and sneered: "Do I still want to thank you?" ”
He Huan was as kind as a stream, nodded and said: "If you really thank me, I will accept it, anyway, I have done more than a little bit for this family, and I deserve your 'thank you'." ”
Wei turned his head away.
He Huan didn't think about it, and continued: "Auntie, the third uncle and the third aunt are in the living room at this time. For the sake of the lives of the whole family, I have to find out whether they have anything to do with the thieves and how deep their friendship with Feng Jiyang is. If you are thinking about the future of your own grandchildren, calm down and listen to me, and then we will figure out the ins and outs of the matter together. If you are bent on punishing Aunt Cao and playing the prestige of the head of the family, please continue to stay here. ”
"What anti-thieves, anti-thieves are all dead, don't be alarmist here."
"Forget it." He Huan shook his head, stepped forward and pinched Wei's chin, stuffed Bai Ayafu into her mouth again, and said with annoyance: "I shouldn't have had hope for you, I was wrong." (To be continued......)
