Chapter 194: The Cause of the Shipwreck
"Sister-in-law, don't worry, our grievances today can't be in vain, I'll tell my father when I go back!" Wang Lin was happy to see that Lan Yi was always silent, thinking that she was uncomfortable for today's affairs, "We can't afford to leave such relatives." ”
On the one hand, Lan Yi is not Wang Linshan's real wife, and Wen Xuan is not Wang Linshan's bloodline; On the other hand, the people in Huajia Village have not been close to Lan Yi's mother and son for the past two years, so they can't talk about any feelings, and they obviously want to stir up trouble this day.
"Second brother, thanks to you today." Lan Yi said gratefully, "If it's just me with Wenxuan, I really don't know what kind of trouble I'm going to make." I always feel that today's events are strange, although my aunt is a little tricky, but the last time we met, she was polite to me, why is it so targeted at me this time? The Hua family's aunt and cousin, brother and sister, and even uncle all looked at it by default, what are they trying to do? ”
There must be a reason for everything, Lan Yi thought seriously.
Wang Linxi waved his whip, "Maybe it's because my sister-in-law is going to remarry, which makes her angry." ”
The aunt of the Hua family was widowed at the age of 30 and did not remarry, and she took her three children to live in her husband's house, and now the sister-in-law is remarried with her children, which is very undesirable in her opinion, and it also makes him envious and jealous. It's not that Aunt Hua doesn't want to remarry, it's just that she has a temper, her appearance is difficult to see, and the requirements for partiality are still very high, so ordinary Zhuang families naturally won't marry such a widow; And those old widowers or those whose family conditions are not good and have a little problem, she can't look down on them, so she misses them again and again. Wang Linxi didn't want her sister-in-law to know about these things.
Lan Yi has heard a little about the Hua family's aunt, but, "There may be reasons for this, but she should have other plans for making such unreasonable troubles today." She insisted on framing me for killing my grandmother, she should want me to admit this crime and do something, what kind of big things have happened to the Hua family recently? ”
Wang Linxi can understand the meaning of his sister-in-law's question, and his sister-in-law has taught him before that people must do things for a purpose, and they must understand clearly in order to infer their behavior; The sister-in-law also said that the purpose of people's actions can be roughly divided into two categories: fame and profit, and the Hua family is more likely to do this for profit.
"I haven't heard of it, and I haven't had time to inquire about it today." Although he felt that the atmosphere was not right when he entered the Hua family, Wang Linxi also thought that this was the sudden death of the old lady of the Hua family, which made everyone fall into grief and not have come to their senses, and did not think much about it, "Sister-in-law, I am tired today, you will take the child home to rest first, I will discuss with my father, and then go to Uncle Yang's house to ask." ”
Li Zheng Zhao Weiyang is the son-in-law of the Hua family, and he has always been well-informed, so now he can only go to him to inquire, "Sister-in-law will wait at home tomorrow morning, and I will come to pick up my sister-in-law when I arrive." ”
"It's hard second brother. I don't plan to take Wenxuan over tomorrow, so don't run with you, you can't get away with the business matters, I'll just ride a donkey over by myself. Don't worry, they can't treat me like that! Lan Yi said confidently, "Don't say too much for Uncle Yang, it doesn't matter if you can't hear the news, there is no impermeable wall, their purpose will be clear within three days, I will not change everything, and I will go to guard my grandmother's spirit in accordance with the rules, and there will be nothing to do after the burial in three days." ”
"No matter how busy Shang Ji's affairs are, he can't keep up with his sister-in-law's affairs." Wang Linxi sent Lan Yi to the door, "Sister-in-law, I won't go in." ”
Lan Yi hugged Wen Xuan and got out of the ox cart, "I'm wearing hot filial piety now, so I won't go out, and the second brother will work harder." ”
"Sister-in-law is outside." Wang Lin smiled honestly, he really couldn't see the sharp appearance when he was at the Hua family this afternoon, "We are a family." ”
"Second uncle, it's a family, and the baby likes it." Winshare expressed his views in a timely manner.
Wang Linxi smiled even more happily, "Second Uncle knows." ”
Zhou Weiji leaned on the inside of the door of his house, heard Lan Yi coming back, and opened the door.
"Coming back from Huajia Village?"
Lan Yi nodded, Wen Xuan stretched out his arm to ask Zhou Weiji to hug him, Zhou Weiji naturally took him from Lan Yi's arms, hugged and patted him with one hand, "Is it cold?" ”
Wen Xuan shook his head, pursed his lips and said aggrievedly, "Second uncle, they bullied my mother and beat her!" ”
Zhou Weiji's eyes widened, and he looked Lan Yi up and down, "Where is the injury?" ”
With so many things happening today, Lan Yi didn't feel anything and coped with it very well, but now that she was looked at by Zhou Weiji like this, she also had a sour nose and wanted to cry aggrievedly, "Not injured, second brother, Wen Xuan means that Aunt Hua had some disputes with me, she was not right, and wanted to beat her." ”
"Well, the baby hit her!" Wen Xuan nodded, in his and Yu'er's cognition, Zhou Weiji was their father, and when their mother was bullied, they naturally wanted to ask for help from Zhou Weiji. Wen Xuan's little face was pressed against Zhou Weiji's neck, but he was pierced by his beard stubble, frowned and stretched out his small fist to rub his face, and touched Zhou Weiji's thick and hard beard, "Second uncle has a beard, Zaza." ”
Zhou Weiji rubbed his little face for him, although Lan Yi's tone was flat, he still heard something abnormal, and wanted to hold the little girl in his arms to comfort and comfort. He knows how strong Lan Yi is, and if she can make her feel wronged, it must be the Hua family who has gone too far!
"What did they do?" Zhou Weiji frowned and asked Lan Yi.
Wang Linxi felt that it was quite useless for him to stand here, patted his head and said, "Brother Tuesday, sister-in-law, I'll go back first." ”
Zhou Weiji looked at no one on the left and right, and said in a low voice: "Lin Xi, there is something that you don't know yet. The Hua family's merchant ship had an accident on the mountain waterway from Huang County to Dengzhou the day before yesterday. ”
Wang Linxi and Lan Yi were stunned for a moment, and they both looked at Zhou Weiji.
"They had four merchant ships, and they were in a fog when they reached a dangerous place. It was supposed to dock and wait for the fog to clear before sailing, but the flower show week was in a hurry and urged the merchant ships to move forward. In the thick fog, they encountered the bandits, who broke the keels of the three merchant ships, injured several men, and stole a lot of goods. ”
Zhou Weiji only heard about this matter from the yamen today, and the yamen sent people to check, the water bandits with the goods have disappeared into the deep mountains and dark waters, and the traces are difficult to find, and the three merchant ships that were chiseled off the keel can no longer be used, and the Hua family has suffered great losses this time.
Lan Yi and Wang Linxi glanced at each other and were very surprised, "Second brother, I also met the third uncle Hua Zhanzhou and the eldest cousin Hua Changye in the Hua family today, they are both guarding in the mourning hall. ”
"They should have just rushed back this morning." Zhou Weiji said, "Fortunately, neither of them was injured, but two of the guys on the merchant ship were seriously injured, but fortunately, the bandits were not extremely vicious and did not hurt anyone's lives." ”R1152
