In the room, Jiang deliberately lowered his voice, and Geng Xingshuang and Geng Xingchen couldn't hear it at all.

After about a quarter of an hour, Jinbao took a step back and said, "Girl, seventh girl, the third lady said...... On the day of Duanyang, the eldest master and the third master went together to break the second master's leg. ”

Jin Bao had a look of shock on his face, Zhan Pei had said before that the two men in black that Duanyang saw that night were somewhat like Geng Wen and Geng Yan.

At the beginning, Geng Xingshuang also paid special attention to Geng Wen and Geng Yan, but seeing that the two of them were very normal, even Geng Yan, who was not very able to hide his words on weekdays, did not show the slightest tone and abnormality, and as time went by, Geng Xingshuang gradually forgot about it.

Unexpectedly, Duanyang's matter was exposed when the Mid-Autumn Festival was about to begin.

"How did the third aunt know?" Geng Xingshuang immediately asked.

Jin Bao said: "Yesterday, the uncle called the eldest master and the third master again, as for what he said, I don't know, but the third master was very angry, and after coming back, he drank the wine by himself."

Geng Xingchen was shocked at the beginning, but now she has slowly calmed down, she nodded and said: "Indeed, my father was in a very bad mood last night, and he didn't say a word during the meal, and after eating, he let each of us go back to the house, did he drink again?"

Jinbao nodded, "The third lady said, the third master said after drinking, the uncle was partial, and now I know that he and the eldest master injured the second master, took their handle, and threatened them again and again, the third master also said that he and the eldest master will not give in, if the uncle is really ruthless, go to the official!" ”

Geng Xingshuang thought that during this time, her grandfather had indeed looked for her father a few times, and every time she came back, although her father could barely smile at her, there was indeed a gloomy look in his eyes.

"Sixth sister, this ...... I didn't expect that it was my father and uncle who injured the second uncle together, do you say that grandmother knows about this? ”

Geng Xingchen was a little worried, although because of the matter of grapes and pomegranates, she also lost her absolute trust in Geng Xun, but Geng Xun was at least sensible, if Mrs. Bo knew how Geng Cheng was injured, then ......

Geng Xingchen immediately shook his head, "Grandmother must not know, otherwise this Bofu would have turned the sky upside down." But Sixth Sister, do you think my grandfather will really sue the official? ”

"No!" Geng Xingshuang affirmed, "Unless Grandfather wants to finish the Anping Bo Mansion." ”

The brothers killed each other, and the father sued the eldest son and the younger son, even if this matter was placed in Ningdu City, where new and important events happened every day, it could be regarded as quite explosive news.

The former may have happened or is happening in many families, but all of them are carried out in secret, and no one will make trouble in the yamen.

Especially for people with titles like their family, they won't risk their titles.

How much Geng Xun cared about the plaque on the gate, Geng Xingshuang and Geng Xingchen were extremely clear.

"Besides, even if Mrs. Bo really knew about this one day and went to the yamen in a fit of anger, my grandfather would only find out that my father and third uncle broke one of the second uncle's legs, but the second uncle is not just as simple as breaking a leg now, the matter has passed for so long, whether there is substantial evidence in my grandfather's hands, these are uncertain factors, as long as my father and third uncle never admit it, they may not be guilty!"

Geng Xingshuang sighed, "Third Uncle did a good job before, why couldn't he help but say it last night?" ”

This should have been kept a secret, even if the grandfather already knew about it, but he obviously had no intention of telling Mrs. Bo.

But now that the third aunt knows, the third aunt told her mother again, and she and Geng Xingchen Jinbao know again, they naturally won't intentionally say it, but once they know, maybe one day they will reveal the news when they are unconscious.

The secret is that the fewer people who know, the better.

At dinner, Geng Xingshuang learned why the third uncle was drunk and lost his words, and told what he had hidden for several months.

Ruan Shi asked Geng Wen what Geng Xun was looking for him yesterday, at first, Geng Wen didn't want to answer, just said nothing, but Ruan Shi sank his face and said that Jiang Shi had already told her.

Geng Wen thought of Geng Yan's temperament, believed it, and finally had to say helplessly: "I didn't promise my father, where did we get two thousand taels of silver."

"Two thousand taels of silver, he's crazy, what do you want two thousand taels of silver?"

Nguyen exclaimed.

Only then did Geng Wen know that the Ruan family had deceived him just now, and she didn't know from the Jiang family the purpose of Geng Xun's search for him yesterday.

But having said that, there is no need to continue to hide it.

He sighed and said, "It's for the four girls to make a dowry for her."

"Geng Xingbing? She said her in-laws? When was this? Why should we pay her dowry? As soon as he opened his mouth, it was two thousand taels ......."

Speaking of this, Ruan Shi suddenly paused, why did they come out, Jiang Shi had already said the reason in the afternoon.

Because Geng Wen and Geng Yan broke Geng Cheng's legs.

Geng Xun used this as an exchange, or a coercion.

Geng Wen mentioned Geng Xingbing, which reminded Geng Xingshuang of the previous two exhibitions.

Geng Xingbing did go out a few more times in the past two months, and after Zhan Pei got the news, he and Wu Juan followed Geng Xingbing's carriage together, but every time they followed a certain road, they would lose it.

I only know that the place where Geng Xingbing went should be in the area of Xinghua Lane in Jinyue Hutong.

"Every time the fourth girl goes out, the maid named Chu Yin follows, girl, the slave and maid see that although Chu Yin looks weak and has a thin body, she walks lightly but does not float, she should be a person who practices martial arts."

Geng Xingshuang later also knew Chu Yin's origin, she was hit by Geng Xingbing's carriage, and because she had nowhere to go, she was "kindly" taken in by Geng Xingbing.

But by coincidence, she was hit with Tao Yuyu's mother.

And Chu Yin turned out to be a person who practiced martial arts, Geng Xingshuang felt that Geng Xingbing should have caught up with someone at that time, but at that time she only thought that Geng Xingbing might have used silver money and other means to buy people in the rivers and lakes, so that she could attack the Tao family.

But now, Geng Xun actually asked her father and third uncle to spend so much money to buy a dowry for Geng Xingbing, and Geng Xingshuang knew that her previous guess was wrong.

Geng Xingbing did not catch up with someone in the rivers and lakes who could only do martial arts and had no other foundation, but ...... Powerful or court officials.

Otherwise, Geng Xun would not have paid so much attention.

Geng Xingshuang thought of Geng Xingbing's relationship with Yang Tiancheng, and quietly retired before getting married, which may also be related to the person Geng Xingbing is going to marry now.

"Dad, did my grandfather say who the fourth sister is going to marry?" Geng Xingshuang asked.

Geng Wen shook his head, "I asked, and the third brother also asked, but he didn't say it, we only knew when he said it, and only told us that the person's status was noble, and it wasn't something that people like us could climb, but that person and the four girls had unintentionally met once, and he himself fell in love with the four girls, so he begged the family, and this is the family affair." ”

Ruan Shi couldn't help but sneer when he heard this: "This is going to make us prepare a dowry, and we don't even say who the other party is, how can there be such a thing in the world, who is so mysterious and mysterious to get married, as if they can't see the light, isn't it a concubine?"

Ruan Shi rushed out, she was not such a mean person in her life, but today she was really angry with the stimulation of two thousand taels of silver, and she felt that her father-in-law was asking for silver from their family's money box.

Over the years, they have been frugal, and Geng Cheng and Geng Xingshuang's brothers and sisters have also paid silver to the family, plus that Zhuangzi, the family can barely scrape together two thousand taels of silver, but as soon as the two thousand taels of silver come out, they will be destitute.

When Ruan Shi thought of this, he said everything out, relieved his anger!
