Chapter 118: Giving You an Explanation
Dongfang Yi looked at the thick stack of papers, and before he could react, he turned his head and saw that Uncle Xing had already gone back to take care of Nalan Zhen.
He had no choice but to put it away first, and then make plans.
Outside the Lian'er Mansion, I talked good things to those who came to ask for compensation for a long time, my mouth was dry, and my throat was smoking. to persuade those people away.
Dongfang Yi turned out the previous account book, carefully checked the numbers on it, and added up all the funds that could be active, which was not enough to compensate for the loss of the family.
"Uncle." Lian'er walked in, swallowing her saliva.
"How's it going, are those people gone?" Dongfang Yi looked at the ledgers.
"After leaving, after saying good things for a long time, they were willing to leave, saying that they would come back early tomorrow morning." Lian'er stared at the teapot on the table, licking her lower lip incessantly.
"It's hard work, drink a glass of water. I'll take care of them tomorrow, and you can rest early. Dongfang Yi glanced up at Lian'er's movements.
"Thank you, Uncle." Lian'er held the teacup and drank several cups in a row before she felt a little more comfortable in her throat, "Uncle, why don't you tell the kitchen to prepare some supper for you?" ”
"No need, you go and rest, I'll be fine soon, by the way, don't forget the clothes for Jin'er." Dongfang Yi did not forget Nalan Jin in prison.
"Got it."
Lian'er came out and gently closed the door, and the candle in the house was not extinguished until the early hours of the morning.
Dongfang Yi didn't sleep all night, and the amount of compensation was so large that it could not be made up for by the remaining activity funds in the ledger.
Although Uncle Xing handed over the property of Nalan Mansion to Dongfang Yi, he hesitated and still felt that he couldn't use it.
With nothing to do, he had no choice but to hit his idea on his mansion.
It was the mansion left by Dongfang Yizu, which had been abandoned for a long time because no one lived in it.
There were a few businessmen who had taken a fancy to the land and wanted to buy it at a high price.
But Dongfang Yi remembered that it was an ancestral house that had been passed down from generation to generation, so he did not agree and has been abandoned until now.
Although there are housekeepers and maids in the house, it has become deserted because no one lives in it.
"It's all because you're useless, seeing that things are about to be done, just because of your indecision, a good opportunity is wasted." Pei Shi opened his eyes and began to chatter.
Pei Shi nagged for half a night with this excuse, and didn't shut up until he was sleepy. As soon as I opened my eyes, it started again.
"You said last night that your mouth is not tired, and my ears are calloused. Didn't I think of what you said? So what's the solution, what do we do? Nalan Wenyuan was angry, and his voice increased.
Pei Shi stared at Nalan Wenyuan, but he didn't expect him to be angry with her.
"What's the use of you getting angry with me, I robbed you of your property? Did I ground you? Pei snorted disdainfully and turned his head to the side.
The maid brought the meal over as instructed, and Pei gave her beloved bracelet to the maid
Mustache, I hope she can help.
"I'm sorry, ma'am, I can't ask for this." The maid took off the bracelet on her arm and returned it to Pei's family, and hurriedly ran out.
"Alas, alas, it's really stupid, I don't want any reward." Pei shrugged his shoulders.
"If you think about that little thought, you should think about other things, and you won't be able to achieve enough things all day long, and you will have more than enough failures." Nalan Wenyuan felt upset when he saw Pei Shi, and threw down a sentence and hid in the courtyard.
Pei sat down and thought about it calmly, he definitely couldn't sit still like this. When Dongfang Yi finished the matter, at that time, he would really compensate his wife and soldiers, and everything would be over.
So she tried all kinds of ways to communicate with Master Qian.
Nalan Wenyuan is rare to be at leisure, and he actually coaxed Nalan Bo with his nurse in the yard, and he smiled so brightly on his face.
"Bo'er, come, call Dad, give you candy to eat." Nalan Wenyuan teased Nalan Bo.
Nalambo's immature hand beat Naranwen's face, and he was still playing with his deliberate purpose.
"Master, this kid is still young and can't speak." The nurse was laughing aloud.
"Really? Come to Bo'er, call Daddy. ”
Nalan Wenyuan looked at Nalan Bo with expectant eyes, teasing Nalan Bo, and was very happy.
Dongfang Yi took the clothes prepared by Lian'er and planned to see Nalan Jin early in the morning. As soon as I arrived at the gate of the house, I saw that the water at the door was surrounded and impassable.
"Someone's coming." The heat who took the lead in stirring up trouble reminded him in a low voice.
Dongfang Yi looked at these people, all of them had fierce faces, and their eyes were full of hostility, as if they could fight at any time.
"Who are they?" Dongfang Yi interrogated the family at the door.
"They are all family members of poisoned people, they came before dawn, and they have been here all along. I was worried that something would happen, so I told the people in the house to be on guard. The family looked at the people and said.
The family members all held sticks in their hands and pointed at those people, worried that there would be an early warning of an emergency.
"Tell them all to put away." Dongfang Yi waved his hand.
"Uncle, this ......" the family didn't understand.
"They are only for money, and they won't mess around, and even if they do, if you send them, it will be even more unclear. Put it away. ”
Dongfang Yi looked at the people sitting in front of him, although they were old and weak, women and children, they were all neat, and they completely obeyed the command of the person who took the lead, it seemed that they were instructed by others and had a clear purpose.
After listening to Dongfang Yi's words, Jia Ding had to ask the others to put away the sticks, but just in case, Jia Ding let everyone else hide behind the door, in case something happened, it would be good to take care of it.
"Nalan Mansion has poisoned people."
When the leader saw Dongfang Yi come out, he pretended to be pitiful and shouted, and the others shouted along, their voices were mixed and uneven.
"Kill to pay for your life, and pay off your debts."
The leader shouted with indignation.
When Dongfang Yi looked at that person, he subconsciously turned his gaze to the side,
Don't dare to look directly at Dongfang Yi.
Dongfang Yi could tell at a glance from that person's eyes that there was definitely something wrong with him.
Dongfang Yi walked over and circled around that person, and there was no sadness on his body at all, but a faint smell of medicine.
"Excuse me, is there a personal poisoning in your home?" Dongfang Yi asked tentatively.
“…… I? The man glanced around, "I'...... Mother, it's me Mu Ping, I was poisoned after eating the salt products you sell, and now I'm still lying at home, you are careless of people's lives, bad traders. ”
The scolding people didn't dare to look directly at Dongfang Yi, so they incited others to shout together.
"Careless of human life, unscrupulous profiteers!"
"Careless of human life, unscrupulous profiteers!"
……
People follow suit, like a group of people who want to do righteousness. The slogan is unified, and the action is unanimous.
Dongfang Yi looked at the person in front of him, avoiding the important and trivial, and he couldn't speak clearly, but he kept inciting the people behind him.
"This big brother, what are the symptoms of your mother's poisoning?" Dongfang Yi walked in front of the man.
She ...... I kept shouting that I had a headache and couldn't get up while lying down. The man tilted his head slightly and made up a symptom.
"And what about your family's poisoning?" Dongfang Yi gently hooked the corners of his mouth, turned around and asked the people around him.
"Forehead......" The people first froze for a moment, and looked up at the person who took the lead.
"It's okay, I'm just asking. Don't be burdened, answer truthfully. Dongfang Yi blocked the leader's sight, and his voice was particularly soft.
"My child, unconscious, with purple lips."
"My mother, vomiting doesn't stop, fever at night."
"My dad too, with dry lips and talking nonsense."
"My family is also ......"
Dongfang Yi listened to the narration of these people, and then looked back at the leader's reaction, dodged, and immediately understood.
"It seems that you poisoned ...... It's not the same. Dongfang Yi deliberately looked back at the person who had no fear.
"The depth of the poisoning, of course, the symptoms are different. Don't divert the topic, hurry up and give everyone an explanation. The man muttered a few words and brought everyone's emotions over.
All of a sudden, those people began to shout again, screaming, and even crying, but they were just instigated by people and wanted money to compensate.
"Everyone, I, Dongfang Yi, promise you, three days! I'll give you an explanation for three days. Dongfang Yi stood on the steps and assured everyone.
"Three days? Enough for you to escape, and then we will find someone to compensate. You are clearly perfunctory, don't believe him. "The one who took the lead competed with the theory.
"I, Dongfang Yi, swear here, my husband is a word, and it is difficult to chase the horse. After three days, my wife is still in prison. Even if I want to escape, can I run away with him? ”
Dongfang Yi stretched out three fingers and swore to the sky, the affirmation in his eyes, and
The words are so loud and clear.
Most of those people are from poor families, and they come to make trouble just to get a little money, and there is no need to force people to a dead end.
"Or ...... Wait a few days? ”
"It's okay, anyway, if you can run, the monk can't run the temple."
"That's right, they are also hereditary titles, people from the court, if they run away, someone will naturally come forward."
"Okay, in that case, let's wait."
"Hmm. Wait three days. ”
"Thank you, thank you, please go back first."
Dongfang Yi sincerely bent down to thank them, and the person who took the lead watched everyone leave one after another. He hurriedly grabbed them, and continued to provoke them with words.
The men shook their heads, shook him off, and left.
"You ......," said the man who took the lead angrily, and he just jumped up and hit someone.
"Everyone is gone, your play has no audience to watch, so don't leave quickly." Dongfang Yi walked up to the man.
"You...... Don't try to run, I'll keep an eye on you at all times. ”
The man pointed at Dongfang Yi and threw down a warning, and left with the others. It's just that when he left, he ran and turned directly into the alley.
Seeing that the street at the door was suddenly dredged, and the onlookers also left one after another, Dongfang Yi suddenly felt relieved.
