Chapter 229: I Can't Sleep Looking at Beautiful Boys

"Just, just drowned? By her dad?! "The teeth are fighting, Xu Wenlan feels that this is really a terrifying thing than the most terrifying ghost story.

What kind of father would drown his daughter with his own hands?

However, it is not impossible, it is not that Hai Rui starved her daughter, who was only a few years old, to death, because she ate a piece of bread from the guard.

Death by starvation is a small matter, but a loss of temperance is a big matter - the world is really terrible......

For the first time, I really felt that this was an ancient world, full of old-fashioned rules that she couldn't understand and didn't want to follow.

Lying on the kang at night, Xu Wenlan said that he couldn't sleep anything.

didn't dare to turn over, for fear of waking up her family, Xu Wenlan didn't move, either closing her eyes, or opening her eyes to look at the black shed.

At dawn, you can see the grass shed overhead, there is no hanging ceiling, and when you look up, you can directly see the unkempt straw above.

What decoration and what is beautiful, only large families have so much exquisiteness, and more poor people just ask for a tile to cover their heads, and there are four walls to shelter from the rain and wind.

Life is quite happy, but if you want to say comfortable, you really can't say it, at this time, I really miss her small apartment, although it is small, but the life is definitely much more comfortable than now.

How nice it would be if she could close her eyes and open them again, and go back to her world.

Suppressing the sigh that almost overflowed, Xu Wenlan couldn't bear it anymore and quietly got up.

Cautiously going out, Xu Wenlan sat in the courtyard, looking up at the starry sky.

It's really bright!

Stretching out her hand, she held her hand in the void, as if holding the star in her hand, like a telescope, looking at it like this, it seemed that the star was getting brighter and brighter.

"Have I seen you in modern times? Or maybe the lights are too bright to see you......"

In the sky of the city, there are always few stars, maybe it's not that there are fewer stars, but the lights are too bright.

Sighing in a low voice, Xu Wenlan heard the sound behind him, but he didn't look back, just rested his chin between his arched knees.

Someone sat down next to her, didn't speak, just sat quietly beside her.

Xu Wenlan didn't turn her head, as if she already knew who was sitting beside her, and after a while, she asked in a low voice: "You say, will those bitter masters not want to avenge their daughter's grievances, but just to get the five taels of silver?" ”

"Perhaps!" Bai Shengwen replied in a low voice, as if he didn't know what to say next.

Turning her head, Xu Wenlan's eyes seemed to be foggy: "I don't know why, I always feel very sad......"

Looking at Xu Wenlan fixedly, Bai Shengwen pursed his lips: "Shouldn't I make such a small move?" ”

He discussed with Cheng Yu, and Cheng Yu praised him for his wonderful idea, people's hearts are like this, for money, everything can be done, not to mention that it can be regarded as avenging the dead daughter, and he is not afraid that those bitter masters will not come out.

At that time, he also thought it was a good idea, an upright conspiracy. But now looking at Xu Wenlan's eyes, he suddenly felt that he had done something wrong?

Is it that if he does something wrong, Wen Lan will be sad?

Facing Bai Shengwen's gaze, Xu Wenlan thought for a while before shaking his head: "At least, let Zhang Dazi be punished - those bitter masters, when they found that they didn't have any money, they didn't make a counter-confession, didn't they?" Perhaps, they also subconsciously want revenge......"

It may also be that he is afraid of being punished for making false confessions, but Xu Wenlan would rather believe the former.

"I heard Sister Hui'er say that there was a girl who was drowned by her father—how terrible ......"

In the blink of an eye, Xu Wenlan's tears fell like pearls: "I'm so scared......"

For some reason, Bai Shengwen stretched out his hand stupidly, and it wasn't until a tear fell on his palm that he suddenly withdrew his hand as if he had been burned.

"Wen, Wenlan......" Looking at Xu Wenlan, Bai Shengwen pursed his lips, slowly stretched out his hand, gently held Xu Wenlan's face, and wiped away the tears on her face with his thumb.

"Don't cry, I'm here, I'll always be there—don't be afraid, I won't let anyone hurt you...... Really, I promise! ”

As if he was afraid that Xu Wenlan would not believe it, Bai Shengwen also added a guarantee very seriously.

Xu Wenlan looked at the face close at hand in a daze, and the young man's delicate face was full of serious expressions.

The heart that was originally full of panic suddenly settled down, she smiled and nodded, looking at the young man who was laughing instantly, and suddenly had a very subtle feeling in her heart.

Turning his head in a panic, Xu Wenlan stretched out his hand and pointed to the night sky: "Ah, look, that star is so bright......"

Looking at her hand, Bai Shengwen also nodded with a smile, not noticing that when he looked up at the sky, Xu Wenlan had already turned his face to look at him.

I know that the boy is handsome, but I don't know why he looks super handsome now.

With such a gentle smile, it seems to feel like a Korean drama actor - ah, really, this is not a Korean drama.

Xu Wenlan shook her head, feeling that she was a little stupid. But for some reason, his eyes couldn't take his eyes off the young man's quiet face.

That's it, it's okay to sit side by side......

The night sky on a summer night and the stars are really beautiful......

In less than half a month, Zhang Dazi was really exiled. Xu Wenlan didn't go to see it, but he heard that the people in his family surrounded the yamen, pulling He Zhutou and crying and making trouble, and kept saying that he had been deceived and asked He Zhutou to return something......

Before he finished speaking, he was beaten and driven away by He Zhutou.

Other people may still think that this family deserves it, but Xu Wenlan feels really pitiful. Let He Zhutou return the silver naturally, but how can He Zhutou pay it back?

Now it's really a loss of people and money, his son has been exiled, the powder mill is gone, and he has been beaten for nothing like this, but who can blame him? If they hadn't wanted their son to escape punishment, they wouldn't have ended up like this, and they didn't deserve sympathy.

The Zhang family made a lot of noise in the Yamen, and for several days, the market was talking about his family's affairs.

When Xu Wenlan sold tea eggs, he heard about it, but no matter how big the matter was, there was a time when it was over, and Heishui was not short of after-dinner conversations.

No, she had just set up her stall when she heard a commotion in front of her.

There may be something new happening, but Xu Wenlan doesn't care

Smiled and wrapped the tea eggs in oiled paper and handed them to the eldest lady who came to buy eggs to coax her little grandson, Xu Wenlan was still praising the child for being well-behaved, and heard someone on the other end shouting: "That's a miserable one, blood flowed all over the ground, or how to say that the strength of the iron is great!" After stabbing it, the intestines came out - this Ma Lisan! ”

Suddenly jumped up, Xu Wenlan didn't even care about collecting the money, as if she didn't hear the eldest lady shouting, "Collect the money!" Money, money, don't want it? "I just rushed out.
