Chapter 657 - Explanation of whereabouts is still doubtful
But the direction in which she went out was the opposite to Fu Xiaojiu, so Cheng Fangxin didn't see them.
Fu Xiaojiu muttered strangely: "It's not early, what is she going to do?" ”
Xue Chengwen said empathetically: "Master, do you want to go over and have a look?" ”
Fu Xiaojiu said: "Forget it, let's not go to gossip today, our family is still waiting for us to go back to dinner." ”
Xue Chengwen said again: "Why don't you go back first, and follow up and take a look." ”
Fu Xiaojiu said resolutely: "No, it's getting late, what if something happens to you yourself?" How do I explain to your parents? ”
Xue Chengwen said a little worriedly: "It's so late, can she go out alone with a girl's family?" ”
Fu Xiaojiu had already taken a step in the direction of home, "She is more familiar with the capital than you, don't worry, she won't have an accident." ”
"Okay." Xue Chengwen had no choice but to hold back his curiosity.
When the two of them arrived at home, Liu and Mo had already prepared a large table of meals, Wan Feizhi and Bai Yusheng also came, and the family and Xue Chengwen's father and mother sat around the table and talked, and the atmosphere was lively and harmonious.
Wan Lin came back very early today, and they were only waiting for Fu Xiaojiu and Xue Chengwen.
Fu Xiaojiu wanted to tell Bai Yusheng about Cheng Fangxin's lack of knowing where to go, but she was afraid that if she told Bai Yusheng, Bai Yusheng would go to Cheng Fangxin regardless of it, and Wan Feizhi would be so uncomfortable.
So Fu Xiaojiu still decided to wait until after dinner to tell Bai Yusheng about it.
Everyone knows that Wan Lin, Fu Xiaojiu and Bai Yusheng were rewarded, the three of them were poured a lot of wine, and Fu Xiaojiu later forgot about Cheng Fangxin going out alone.
Bai Yusheng and Old Man Wan were weak from drinking, and the two of them were still sent back by Wan Da in a carriage with Wan Po and Wan Old Man.
Fu Xiaojiu returned to the house and woke up for a while, only then did he suddenly remember Cheng Fangxin's matter.
She told Wan Lin about this, and Wan Lin became nervous when she heard it.
"Lady, you shouldn't hide this from your brother-in-law, what if something happens to Cheng Fangxin? I'm afraid my brother-in-law is going to blame you. ”
Fu Xiaojiu pursed his lips, "What does he blame me for?" Since we didn't tell him about this, we should not know, how can he blame me? ”
Wan Lin said helplessly: "Also, if we don't talk about this, he won't know." But what did Cheng Fangxin do? Didn't my brother-in-law send a maid to take care of her? Why didn't the maid follow her? ”
Fu Xiaojiu was a little sober at this time, thought for a while and said, "I think she may have gone to see someone, so it's inconvenient for people to follow." After all, the maid is a maid, if Cheng Fangxin doesn't let them follow, they won't dare to follow. ”
Wan Lin twisted his eyebrows and said, "It's so late, who can she go to see alone?" Wait tomorrow to see if she is safe and sound at the inn, if she is okay, you should take the initiative to tell your brother-in-law about her going out alone. ”
Fu Xiaojiu also wanted to know where Cheng Fangxin had gone and who he had met, so he responded: "Okay, I'll tell him tomorrow and let him figure out where Cheng Fangxin went." ”
Fu Xiaojiu was worried about this, so she went to the inn where Cheng Fangxin was in the morning, and confirmed with the guy and the shopkeeper that Cheng Fangxin came back safe and sound last night, and then she went to Hangji Hall.
"What? She went out alone last night? After Bai Yusheng heard Cheng Fangxin's whereabouts, he was also taken aback.
Fu Xiaojiu said with guilt: "I'm sorry, brother-in-law, I just told you today, it's all because I drank too much yesterday." ”
Bai Yusheng shook his head, "The third sister-in-law doesn't have to blame herself, you will only tell me when you see her go out, if you don't see her, we won't know even if she doesn't return overnight." When I'm free, I'll ask her where she went last night. ”
Fu Xiaojiu specially instructed: "Then don't say that I saw her go out, you just say that someone else told you." ”
Bai Yusheng nodded understandingly, "Don't worry, third sister-in-law, I know what to say." ”
Hanging Ji Tang is open today and the last day, so there are many people who come to see the doctor, and Bai Yusheng has no time to go to Cheng Fangxin in the morning.
Wan Feizhi could see that Bai Yusheng was a little uneasy, when Fu Xiaojiu came to Bai Yusheng in the morning, Wan Feizhi was already seeing people, and he didn't have time to talk to Bai Yusheng until noon.
"Xianggong, do you have something on your mind?" Wan Feizhi asked thoughtfully.
Bai Yusheng didn't hide it from her and told her about Cheng Fangxin.
Wan Feizhi was also puzzled when he heard this, and hurriedly said, "Then you should go to your cousin and ask for clarification." She didn't have her father and mother by her side, and if something happened to her, she would be in trouble. ”
"Thank you lady for being so considerate, then I'll go and ask her."
Bai Yusheng said and went out anxiously.
Seeing Bai Yusheng's anxious back leaving, Wan Feizhi was a little inexplicably lost.
When Bai Yusheng arrived at the inn, Cheng Fangxin was leaning against the window in a daze, and the two maids were standing at the door in a proper manner.
"Young Master!"
Bai Yusheng pushed the door in, startling the two maids, and Cheng Fangxin immediately came back to her senses and looked at Bai Yusheng with joy in her eyes.
"Cousin, you're here!" Cheng Fangxin immediately stood up, but the moment she stood up, her body shook like a willow.
"Be careful!" Bai Yusheng hurriedly stepped up to support her.
Cheng Fangxin fell into Bai Yusheng's arms, but she didn't stay long, and soon stood up by herself.
"Don't blame me, cousin, I didn't mean to stand firm just now."
Cheng Fangxin said apologetically.
Bai Yusheng didn't expect her to apologize, and said softly: "It's okay, I don't mean to blame you." Didn't you eat much in the morning? ”
Without waiting for Cheng Fangxin to answer, Bai Yusheng asked the two maids what Cheng Fangxin had eaten last night and this morning.
The two maids said that she had only drunk one bowl of porridge last night and this morning, and they advised her to eat more, but she could not eat anything.
Bai Yusheng nodded, "You go and prepare some food for Miss Biao." ”
The two maids retreated in a witty way, and Cheng Fangxin saw that Bai Yusheng deliberately took the maids away, so she asked, "Cousin, do you want to say anything to me?" ”
Bai Yusheng first said euphemistically: "Cousin, I am now the only relative by your side, if you encounter any difficulties, you must not hold it in your heart, no matter what it is, you have to tell me, you know?" ”
Cheng Fangxin said gratefully: "My biggest problem cousin has solved it for me, where else will I have any difficulties?" ”
Bai Yusheng saw that she didn't seem to understand what she meant, so she said again: "I think I'd better say it directly." Where did you go last night? Why didn't you let the maid follow? ”
"Huh?" Cheng Fangxin was obviously stunned for a moment.
Bai Yusheng said again: "My patient saw that you went out alone last night, and he only told me this morning. Where the hell did you go last night? I hope you don't hide it from me. ”
Cheng Fangxin lowered her eyes suddenly, clutching her handkerchief tightly, as if she was very nervous.
Bai Yusheng saw her nervousness, so he comforted her: "Cousin, you and I are relatives, do you still have something that you can't tell me?" ”
Cheng Fangxin hesitated for another moment, and finally raised her head.
"Cousin, I did go out alone for a while last night, but I didn't go to see anyone, I just went back to look around our house and burned some paper money for my father."
When Cheng Fangxin said this, she couldn't stop shedding two lines of pitiful tears.
"Original...... That's what you're doing. Bai Yusheng suddenly felt a little guilty, he thought that Cheng Fangxin had secretly met someone and done something wrong in order to stay in the capital.
Cheng Fangxin then apologized to Bai Yusheng, "I'm sorry cousin, I'm worried about you for causing trouble." I promise I won't trouble you again......"
Bai Yusheng hurriedly said: "No, no, you don't have to apologize to me, it's not a trouble, I'm just worried about your safety." Okay, now that you're fine, I'll go back first. But if you want to go home or pay tribute to your uncle, you can tell me, and I will take you back. By the way, I'll take you to the temple to set up a tablet for your uncle. ”
"Thank you, cousin." Cheng Fangxin first said tenderly, and then said: "But don't bother my cousin to take me to the temple, I already went to the temple yesterday to set up a tablet for my father." ”
Bai Yusheng nodded and said, "It's still thoughtful." ”
When Bai Yusheng left, he asked the two maids if they knew where Cheng Fangxin went last night?
The two maids said they didn't know, saying that Cheng Fangxin just wouldn't let them follow, but she did come back not long after.
Bai Yusheng didn't ask any more questions, and went directly to Cheng's mansion.
The Cheng Mansion is still sealed, and there are officers and soldiers guarding it around.
Bai Yusheng did not immediately ask the officers and soldiers if they had seen Cheng Fangxin last night, but first carefully checked the surrounding ground, and sure enough, traces of burning paper money were found in a secluded corner.
Bai Yusheng believed Cheng Fangxin's words.
As soon as Bai Yusheng returned to the medical hall, Wan Feizhi curiously asked her about Cheng Fangxin's whereabouts.
After Bai Yusheng finished speaking, Wan Feizhi always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't say anything wrong for a while.
She was afraid that her doubts would make Bai Yusheng think that she was cautious, so she suppressed her doubts in her heart.
Tonight, they were going to invite the Wan family to the Bai family for dinner, and Wan Feizhi wanted to talk to Fu Xiaojiu about it.
Fu Xiaojiu was also busy late today, and when he arrived at the Bai family, he was pulled aside by Wan Feizhi.
Because of the crowd, Bai Yusheng took Wan Da and them to visit the Bai family, and it was normal for Wan Feizhi to be accompanied by Fu Xiaojiu.
After Wan Feizhi finished talking to Fu Xiaojiu about the doubts in her heart, Fu Xiaojiu also felt that something was wrong.
Fu Xiaojiu said cautiously: "But if you want to know where Cheng Fangxin went, and whether she saw anyone, you have to see it with your own eyes." I've got to find someone to keep an eye on her. Otherwise, if she continues like this, she will be more and more pitiful, in case her brother-in-law loves her. ”
Wan Feizhi frowned in embarrassment, "But who is going to keep an eye on her?" ”
Fu Xiaojiu smiled mysteriously, "I already have a suitable candidate." ”
