Chapter 477 Witnesses
Li Xin hid an uneasiness in her heart. "Ya-Wen * Yan + Love $ First @ Hair"
She couldn't tell where the uneasiness came from, but she felt a sense of uneasiness in her heart as soon as she got into the carriage and the sound of the horses' hooves clattering and the jolting of the carriage came to her ears.
Guan Wen and Wei Xingzhi were sitting outside, and there were only three people in the carriage, including her, Ah Mei and Aunt Wei, and Ah Mei was talking to Aunt Wei in a low voice, distracting Aunt Wei from the bumps in the carriage.
Li Xin couldn't help but lift the curtain and look behind.
Wine Alley is getting farther and farther away, and the smell of wine is getting weaker and weaker.
But the appearance of the second sister Qiao she had just seen flashed in front of her eyes.
The last time I saw her, I didn't think she was so thin, although she wasn't very beautiful, but she was healthy in the end, her eyebrows were raised, and she had an indescribable style.
And the second sister Qiao who I just saw ......
The cloak was disheveled, the clothes on his body were very messy, and the eyes that were shining with style were also open blankly, and there was a sense of despair like resignation.
And the man who came after him pulled her and yelled at her to get a drink......
Li Xin lowered the curtain and sighed silently.
The world is impermanent.
These four words sound simple, but after careful tasting, they really feel very embarrassing.
When we get down the slope, it's time for dinner.
Guan Wu and Xing'er warmly greeted Aunt Wei and Wei Xingzhi into the hall to sit, Feng Defa was also there, knowing that this was the family of the person who was engaged to Ah Mei, looking at Wei Xingzhi's character, he also felt that it was a rare thing, thinking that this was his future brother-in-law. He also talked generously with Wei Xingzhi, warming up the relationship in advance.
Xu has never gotten along with so many people since he was a child, and Wei Xingzhi has a hard time dealing with them.
In the evening, Wei Xingzhi slept in the room that was originally prepared for Wei Xingzhi in Ah Xiu, while Aunt Wei slept in the same room with Ah Mei.
Aunt Wei said bluntly that the air in this rural place is good. She couldn't smell the wine anymore, and she felt much more breathing.
It was already dawn the next day, and Wei Xingzhi vaguely heard the chattering voices of Yang'er and Xiaokang.
They recited the Three Character Sutra. was reading the sentence "Xi Meng's mother chooses a neighbor, and the son does not learn to break the machine", Wei Xingzhi went out and saw two little people sitting on a small bench, with their hands behind their backs, and their little heads shaking in a careless manner, which was very cute.
The childish voice is very crisp.
Take a closer look. The one standing next to him leaning against the door was clearly the sister-in-law of the Guan family, and the one next to him who was also listening carefully was his fiancΓ©e, Guan Amei. "Ya-Wen * Yan + Love $ First @ Hair"
Wei Xingzhi couldn't help but be stunned.
Apricot held her waist and held a dustpan in one hand. Seeing Wei Xingzhi standing stupidly, he couldn't help but smile and said, "Brother Wei, are you awake?" β
"Ah...... Guan's second sister-in-law. Wei Xingzhi hurriedly stretched out his hand.
"You're welcome, Brother Wei." Xing'er smiled at him and said, "Aunt Wei said that you are very tired during this time, so I asked you to rest more this morning, so everyone didn't see you when they got up." β
Wei Xingzhi was busy, and he was not in the way.
"You wash up first, there's a washroom in the back room." Xing'er said: "Auntie is taking a walk in the bamboo forest at this time, and by the way, help us go to the chicken shed to feed the chickens." β
Wei Xingzhi nodded hurriedly, and Xing'er went to work by herself.
Life in the Guan family is very regular, even if Wei Xingzhi doesn't really want to come. But after I came, I have to say that I am very happy in life. He only needs to review books every day, and the sister-in-law of the Guan family will cook a lot of delicious dishes for him to eat, and even provide him with other so-called "brain-toning" drinks, supplements, and even nuts such as walnuts.
He said that he was embarrassed to eat and live for nothing, and the sister-in-law of the Guan family smiled and said that he would spare half an hour every day to teach the two little babies to write - Wei Xingzhi's calligraphy is the best. After all, Yang'er and Xiaokang are entry-level, and there is naturally no obstacle for Wei Xingzhi to give them the horizontal and vertical skimming of standardized writing.
Everyone gets along very well, especially Feng Defa, who seems to have a common language with Wei Xingzhi and often talks to Wei Xingzhi. He said how he and Ah Xiu met, how they set up family affairs, how they were familiar with each other, and how much he missed her when Ah Xiu was not here.
Wei Xingzhi mostly listened to him - it was his turn to say, but he couldn't say one, two, three.
He has little intersection with Ah Mei. The only time the two looked at each other was the last time the Guan family came to visit the Wei family. At that time, he felt that Ah Mei would be a virtuous and good wife in the future.
Four or five days passed in a flash.
After staying at Guan's house for four days, Wei Xingzhi was going back to the town, packing up his things and going to the state capital to participate in the autumn festival.
Aunt Wei was very reluctant to him, and before Wei Xingzhi left, she instructed him over and over again, telling him to take care of himself, be careful on the road, and it is best to walk with those who can find him.
Wei Xingzhi has been nodding and agreeing, just to forgive Aunt Wei's heart.
Aunt Wei only got this only standing son at the age of forty, so she was naturally very worried about his first long trip, and she didn't know how many times she repeated the same meaning of the advice. If it weren't too late, Aunt Wei would probably have pulled Wei Xingzhi to continue to instruct.
The mother of the child is worried.
Li Xin helped Aunt Wei to see the carriage carrying Guan Wen and Wei Xingzhi leave, and comforted Aunt Wei softly: "Auntie don't worry too much, let's wait for the good news of Brother Wei." β
Aunt Wei sighed: "It's the first time he's gone so far......"
"He's a man, and he's going to go out when he grows up." Li Xin helped Aunt Wei to walk back: "Besides, he is an exam-taking student, and he has always respected scholars today, and most of the favored people in the court are humerus ministers who are born in literati." Instead of worrying about him, the eldest mother should look forward to the day when he returns from the middle school. β
Aunt Wei smiled and said, "I also hope that he can be promoted and glorify his ancestors, but the more important thing is that he can be safe." β
Lao Guan sat on the recliner and saw Aunt Wei and them coming up, so he burst into a smile and asked, "Back, back?" β
"It's back, grandpa." Li Xin smiled and said, "I just sent Brother Wei away." β
Ah Mei rubbed her legs for Lao Guan, Wei Xingzhi didn't send her away, I was afraid that I would be reluctant to shed tears like Aunt Wei. That's a joke.
Ah Mei stood up, called out to the aunt in a low voice, and sat down again to bury her head and beat her legs for the old man.
Aunt Wei smiled and said, "Old man, you have a good rest." β
The old man nodded. He said happily: "Wait, come back...... Marriage ......"
Aunt Wei immediately nodded and said, "Yes, yes." When Xingzhi comes back, let him marry Ah Mei! β
Ah Mei suddenly burned her face red, and buried her head even lower. The old man immediately laughed, and he was very satisfied with it.
On the second day, Guan Wen came back, but his face was not very good, but he also said that Wei Xingzhi made a carriage and went to the state capital, but there was really a companion. said that he was a classmate. Although there is not much communication between each other, they are the same gentleman's disciples, so they naturally go together, so that they can take care of each other.
The stone in Aunt Wei's heart fell to the ground, and Guan Wen gave Aunt Wei the key to the lock of the Wei family. Ah Mei took her to the edge of the ridge and walked and talked.
Guan Wen took Li Xin into the house.
This kind of behavior of his is usually only when he has something private to tell Li Xin, and Li Xin has long noticed that his face is not normal, so he hurriedly retreated to the house and plugged in the door.
"What's wrong?" Li Xin frowned and asked, "As soon as you come back, I feel that your face is wrong." β
Guan Wen took a breath: "I was resting with Brother Wei at Wei's house last night, and I heard someone screaming in the middle of the night, but I slept hazy at that time, and I didn't pay attention to it, and then I didn't hear any movement, so I thought it was ......" Guan Wen paused: "You know it too." Some couples don't know how to control it......"
Li Xin immediately stretched out his hand and slapped him, his face was slightly red: "Who told you to say this, get down to business!" β
Guan Wen laughed and got serious again: "In the morning, I sent Brother Wei to take a car to Zhenkou, and I happened to meet his classmate, and the two went to the state capital together. Wei Shusheng also said that he found that he had brought more books. Those were useless, so he asked me to help him take them home, and handed me the key, and asked me to come back to Aunt Wei, for fear that Aunt Wei would ask for something but not be able to enter the house. β
"And then?"
"And then ......," Guan Wen's face became serious, "and then I went back to Wei's house, and then I realized that something happened next door to them last night." β
"What's the matter?" Li Xin suddenly became nervous - she felt a little uneasy at the beginning: "Isn't that Second Sister Qiao ......?"
Guan Wen lowered his voice: "The woman in that family is fine, but three people died in that family." β
"What!" Li Xin suddenly shook his head and said, "Isn't that the only one in that family......
Li Xin was suddenly paused: "No, when we left that day, the man in the family stopped Second Sister Qiao and asked her to drink for his brothers...... Isn't it his brother who died? β
"Pretty much ......"
Guan Wen's face was very solemn, "When I went, it happened that Lu Zhutou was taking people in and out there, and I also saw Lu Zhutou when I went to the county government with Uncle He and Sun Hongyan to issue documents last time, plus you caught the trafficker by mistake at that time, he still remembered me, and when he heard that I lived there yesterday, he asked me if I found anything abnormal, and I had to tell me about hearing a woman screaming in the middle of the night." β
"And then?" Li Xin said eagerly: "What do you mean by 'almost'?" Aren't all his brothers who died? β
"Xin'er." Guan Wen said in a low voice: "I didn't see what the situation was in the house next door, but I heard Lu Zhutou say that the situation is very serious." β
"Serious?"
Guan Wen whispered in Li Xin's ear: "Lu Zhutou's face is very solemn, he said, I am afraid that there is a group of ringing horses here. Most likely, someone from the north. β
Li Xin's eyes widened suddenly: "How is this possible...... I look at Second Sister Qiao and her man, and I don't think he ......"
"Among the dead people, there is no man from Second Sister Qiao." Guan Wendao: "Lu Zhutou said that Second Sister Qiao testified that it was her man who killed the murderer, and her man ran away last night, she only felt something was wrong this morning, she didn't know anything." β
Li Xin's eyes widened suddenly: "But didn't you say that you heard the sound of a woman screaming last night?" β
"Yes." Guan Wen's face became solemn: "Lu Zhutou said, my words may make Second Sister Qiao from a witness to an accomplice." βRQ
