Chapter 368: It Turns Out I'm Not a Good Person
Yuxi thought that the eighth elder brother's ability and courage had reached the point of daring to kill people, and after Yinzhen explained, he knew that it was a coincidence and his luck.
The official of the Ministry of Works, who had made a bridge and promised thousands of taels of silver to the starling, was looking for joy in the flower street the night before yesterday, but he fell down immediately due to the wind, and when he was sent back, he was unconscious, and he left the next day.
Naturally, the matter of the eighth elder brother accepting bribes is gone.
The timber merchant only took business from the official, how could he know who else was above, not surprisingly, Yinxi's silver could be swallowed without any worries.
Seeing that Yinzhen was depressed, Yuxi didn't dare to ask for a while, and stayed quietly on the side for a long time, Yinzhen first relieved himself and said gently, "I'm scared of you?"
"It's okay, in the court and in the capital, there are no strange things, and I don't know that person, so I don't care in my heart."
"Yes, it's not worth your sadness, after all, it's still a corrupt official, and it's not worth it."
There was a subordinate outside the door who probed his brain, he should have asked when dinner would be served, Yuxi walked to send them away, took a box of snacks from the cabinet and put it down, and said, "What my aunt sent is what you love to eat."
Yin Zhen said lazily, "I have no appetite."
Yuxi said, "It's okay, let's sit and talk, you feel free."
After that, she carefully made tea for her husband, and when the fragrance of tea spread in the room, Yinzhen unconsciously took a deep breath.
"To my aunt and Qinglian, I didn't tell the truth." Yuxi said suddenly.
"What?" Yin Zhen had calmed down a little and took the initiative to take tea to drink.
Yuxi looked at her husband and said frankly: "I am not happy because Sanfujin bullied Bafujin, Qinglian feels that I am kind-hearted, and my aunt feels that I am too soft-hearted, in fact, I have other thoughts."
Yinzhen drank tea, picked a piece of walnut crisp the size of a honey ball, and threw it into his mouth at will.
Yuxi said: "I think she is useless, why can't I have a back and forth with Sanfujin, I still look forward to watching from the wall, and even reaping the benefits of the fisherman."
Yinzhen's eyes trembled, and the hand that reached out to take the walnut crisp stopped and looked at Yuxi in a daze.
Yuxi lowered his eyes and said, "Isn't it very vicious, I was shocked when I came up with such a thought, it turned out that I was not a good person."
Yin Zhen said: "Don't be so harsh."
Yuxi continued: "I also said to Qinglian, E-Niang was worried that the Empress Dowager thought that she wanted the world to be good, how could I have such a thought, I would be so panicked when I thought about it, I was too good at making up for myself."
However, what Yin Zhen was shocked was not Yuxi's heartfelt words, but that he realized that his wife was carrying the bottom line for him, no matter whether Yuxi really thought so in his heart or not, he had to make room for his heart.
Yin Zhen said, "You know what I think."
Yuxi shook her head: "I don't dare to guess."
Yinzhen said: "If Yinxiang and Yinyu commit such a thing, whether that person is dead or alive, I will not spare them, not only will they spit out all the silver, but also take off several layers of skin, so that they will not dare to do this stupid thing that destroys their future."
"It's inevitable."
"But yes, I don't have such thoughts." Yin Zhen said with a solemn expression, "People's greed will only expand infinitely, and there will be no day when it will disappear, not to mention that he is so lucky this time, he can swallow bribes quietly, he has tasted the sweetness, and next time, he will be more bold and rampant, and it is difficult to turn back on this road."
"Yinzhen ......"
"If that person doesn't die, I have concerns, and I am afraid that if the matter is revealed, it will affect the reputation and future of me and my brothers in the court. But now that the man is dead, and the matter is gone, I don't want to care about it anymore, and even think that it is better to let Yinxi fall into it with luck." Yin Zhen was very entangled and painful, "Do you dare to think that I will become like this, no matter what, I and the eighth child are also brothers, aren't they?"
Yuxi said calmly, "The two of us are really a good match, and we are not good people."
Yin Zhen was stunned for a moment, looked at his wife, smiled helplessly, stretched out his hand, intertwined his fingers with Yuxi, and said, "Did you say those words on purpose, so that I can also open my heart, maybe I'm not a good person, but."
In my eyes, you are the best in the world."
Yuxi said without hesitation: "In this way, I am more at ease, and I can admit that I am not a good person, which is much more comfortable than pretending. Horizontally and vertically, I won't harm people, if it's just these things in front of me, the gods and Buddhas can't forgive, then wait for me to explain to them after a hundred years."
"Nonsense...... Yin Zhen said coldly, "What kind of wicked people are we, if there is an accident in the wood, crush the innocent craftsmen, if they can't withstand the disaster and kill the poor people, they are the real wicked people."
Yuxi patted the back of Yinzhen's hand: "In this case, don't worry anymore, if Eighth Elder Brother wants to go astray, it is definitely not your fault that you don't pull him." There are so many brothers, there is the emperor Ama, there are civil and military officials, and even he has a biological mother and an adoptive mother. Yinzhen, this responsibility can't be done by you and me, and it can't be done."
Yinzhen's heart finally settled down, and he replied: "Since I have made a decision, I will not regret it, it is rare that you can make me vomit at home." This kind of thing will only increase in the future, and I will start to hold it back now, and I will go crazy sooner or later."
Yuxi hurriedly said: "Don't say stupid things, it's just that we have experienced less, and after three years and five years, this won't matter."
Yinzhen felt comfortable, and knew that he was hungry and didn't want to eat snacks to fill his stomach, so he ordered Qinglian to pass on dinner, eat with Yuxi, and then go to the study to be busy.
At this hour, the eighth elder brother arrived home and went straight to the main courtyard to find his wife, and the eighth blessing was not waiting at the dining table like in the past, but was only busy in the back room today, and called him through the screen: "Yinxi, you come in and try it, the big wind hair that was just sent, I'm afraid it's too late, it's about to start spring."
Yin Yu turned the screen, and saw that the kang was covered with luxurious and bright satin, and Li Qiu walked towards him with a huge windbreaker, shook it off with difficulty, and said, "You put it on and try it."
"This fur is too flamboyant......
"But I saw that the eldest brother and the third elder brother have them."
Yin Yu said angrily, "Is that silver enough for you to spend?"
Beatitude tilted his head and said with a smile, "Beatitude saved me a lot of money by buying those gold ornaments, of course I have to add you some decent clothes."
Yinxi was happy in her heart, but it was inconvenient to say to her wife, so she only said, "You add more yourself, the Lantern Festival night banquet, let's both go decently."
Bafujin laboriously put on the windbreaker for her husband, padded her feet to tie the thick and soft fur on the neckline, looked at Yinxi's face from time to time, and said with a smile: "Is there anything happy, even if there is nothing unhappy when I come back on weekdays, I am tired, look tired, I came back so late today, and my complexion is still excellent."
Yin Yu said, "These days, eating the tonic you gave me, I feel all overwhelmed."
Bafujin's cheeks flushed, and he lowered his head shyly.
Yinxi opened her trench coat, hugged her into her arms, and breathed a long sigh of relief: "Liqiu, our days will definitely get better and better."
