The four brothers and sisters of the Xie family returned to the Li family smoothly. Xie Jinzhi took the lead in reporting the news to Mrs. Xie and Wen—of course, it was collated and abridged.

Mrs. Xie heard that the mother and daughter of the Wang family were burned to charred corpses, and Wang Angui's house was also burned to the ground, and even the sixth room of the Wang family living next door was damaged, and there were several members of the Wang family who were affected, not to mention how happy it was: "Okay!" God really has eyes! Reap what you sow! The old woman of the Wang family also died, and this is all her retribution for not teaching her son well! In the future, there will not even be anyone to burn incense for her! ”

However, when I heard that the Cheng Wang family had instructed the servants of the Wang family who had been dismissed in advance to handle the aftermath, Mrs. Xie snorted coldly again: "Why didn't the Marquis of Ning Guofu take good care of his daughter-in-law?" even let her out! The Wang family was all killed by God, and the Marquis of Ning Guo's Mansion still wants his daughter-in-law to spend money on them, I really don't know whether to live or die! I'm just waiting to see when their family is also struck by thunder, that's the news of the world! ”

Because the content of Xie Jinzhi's report made Mrs. Xie feel good, she asked Xie Yingrong about relevant details. Xie Yingrong spent all his thoughts on talking to Jiang Yuliang, and all he had in his stomach was the few sentences that Xie Huizhi mentioned, and it didn't take long for him to be taken out. Mrs. Xie only felt bored, and waved her away. Xie Yingrong wanted to coax her a few words and lead her to think in the direction she wanted, but she didn't have a chance to speak.

When she returned to her biological mother, Xie Huizhi had already sued Aunt Dajin first. Aunt Dajin was shocked when she heard that Xie Yingrong wanted to seduce the Jiang family brothers at a young age, and even the son of the Cheng family's big house was not spared. Not to mention that the Jiang family has turned against the Xie family, it is impossible to get married, Jiang Yuliang was Xie Yingzhen's fiancée not long ago! Although Aunt Dajin is not from a very glorious background, she is also an innocent Xie family, and she also knows etiquette, righteousness and shame, but she feels embarrassed on her face.

As for the Cheng family's big house, it is a family with a bright surface, and the identity is there, but the future is unknown. is entangled with the son of that kind of family, because he is afraid that the powerful people who are hostile to the Xie family are not enough?

Aunt Dajin taught her daughter a hard lesson, and since then she has disciplined Xie Yingrong more tightly, and all the money she gave has been recovered, and her daughter is not allowed to have a penny in her hand, let alone go out, so as not to cause trouble!

Xie Yingrong secretly hated Xie Huizhi, and once again suspected that his idea of being determined to cultivate this brother was wrong. What's the use of being shrewd and capable? It's not the same heart with her at all! If this continues, even if he really makes a fortune, he still won't give her the money. Xie Huizhi is a white-eyed wolf who can't be raised, so she simply let him fend for himself! Even if the Cao family is crippled in the future, he will bring it upon himself!

She didn't know that behind her back, Xie Huizhi got along very well with the brothers and sisters in the second room. Brother and sister, you and I told Wen's news one by one, and Wen was worried: "What is this called?" The Wang family is hateful, but it is too miserable to fall into such a result. His neighbors are even more wronged, and unprovoked disasters have fallen from the sky, who is this provoking whom? If it was really the Cao family's doing, it would be too much! ”

Wen is worried about her husband, if the Cao family is ruthless to this point, will they easily let Xie Pu go? Seeing that Xie Pu's lawsuit has an eyebrow, there is hope that it will be released, and she doesn't want anything to happen.

Xie Mulin, Xie Jinzhi, and Xie Huizhi glanced at each other, and comforted her: "Mother, don't think too much, this matter may not be the Cao family's hand." There is all kinds of evidence that it was Wang Angui's wife who set the fire. If the Cao family wanted to kill the three of them, the mother and daughter, they would not be able to burn such a big fire. ”

Wen sighed: "Even if the Wang family set the fire themselves, it was because they were forced to a dead end by the Cao family, otherwise why would this be the case?" ”

Xie Mulin said: "Not necessarily, I don't think the Wang family may be willing to die, but if the fire burns to the ground, if the Cao family believes that they are all dead, they will not pursue anything more, and the court will not send the dead to exile." The dead were burned to charred corpses, but who knows if those charred corpses are the mother and daughter of the Wang family? ”

Wen Shi was stunned for a moment, and his eyes widened: "What did you say?!" ”

Xie Mulin told her: "A servant in the concierge of the opposite family said that before the fire broke out in Wang's house last night, he saw a small carriage quietly leaving the alley on the side of Wang's house. After the fire was extinguished, the people in the sixth room of the Wang family found that a few girls had run away, and the mother-in-law guarding the side door was burned to death. Mother, look, what a coincidence, who knows who is sitting in that carriage? Also, Wang Angui's wife dismissed the family members yesterday. Is this gone, really just a subordinate? Who knows that the descendants of his family have really left? ”

Wen was dumbfounded.

Xie Jinzhi smiled and said, "Mother, these things have nothing to do with us, you just listen to it, and you don't have to mention it to others." Regardless of whether the mother and daughter of the Wang family are really dead or not, the government will only treat them as dead people. Wang Angui's family is dead, and no one will defend his family anymore. Dad's case is also easier to investigate. ”

Wen's expression softened: "You are right. Whether it is the Wang family or the Cao family, they are all self-inflicted. Whatever retribution will be obtained, it is all providence. We just need to watch, the most important thing is to save the old man at the moment, and we don't have to do anything superfluous. ”

The Xie family's life has calmed down again. Except for Xie Huizhi, who went out every day to inquire about the news, everyone else lived in seclusion. The ladies made some needlework or small jewelry, and asked Li to sell them to earn some money, while Xie Jinzhi continued to write textbooks silently and sell them to bookstores to earn money for medicine.

The next day, Shemulin sold another pastry recipe to the pastry shop in front of her door—this was the third time she had sold the recipe, and like the previous two times, she got another ten taels of silver. There is not much money, but it is always much easier to do things when you have money in your pocket.

The pastry shop was quite happy. What Xie Mulin sells to them are classic pastries with simple and cheap ingredients, but the taste is tested for more than a century. It is said that the reputation has spread to the south of the Beimen Bridge, even if it is separated by dozens of zhang, it is still a cloud every day, and the boss and his wife are happy all day long.

Xie Mulin would occasionally spend his own money to buy a few packs of pastries and give them to Yan Jitang. Li Liu'an's wife, Yan, likes to eat desserts, and Dr. Yan is old and loves to eat soft snacks. Xie Mulin had to go to Yan Jitang every day or two to buy some medicinal materials and make food supplements for Xie Jinzhi and the others. With these pastries, it left a good impression on the Yan family. She has been there a lot, and Yan Jitang's guys are happy to give her a discount. When Dr. Yan is in a good mood, he will also instruct her on a few dietary remedies to help her brothers and sisters better condition.

On this day, Xie Mulin was about to go to Yan Jitang again, and before he went out of the room, he met his brother Xie Jinzhi and said to her, "Is the second sister going to grab medicine?" I'm going to the arcade too, so let's go with you. ”

Xie Mulin replied, and asked again: "Didn't the second brother go to the bookstore just yesterday?" Why are you going again today? Have you copied a new book again? The second brother's illness has only been cured for a few days, so it's better not to be too tired, the family's money is enough, you don't have to work so hard. ”

Xie Jinzhi smiled: "I know, today is not to go to the bookstore, but to make an appointment to meet Jiang Shaoliang." ”

Xie Mulin was stunned: "Oh, did you make an appointment with him in Wangjia Hutong that day?" ”

Xie Jinzhi nodded, didn't say much, and walked out of the courtyard with Xie Mulin, but suddenly heard Xie Yingrong running from behind, and asked with bright eyes: "Second brother and second sister are going out?" I also have to buy needlework, so I'll go with you! ”
