Chapter 16: Tough Bones
Just as Jin Huijuan was desperately tearing with "Ye Jinxian", the door was kicked open with a bang.
"Who?! Dare to spoil the good ...... of the master" The words behind Ye Jinxian suddenly choked in his throat.
He watched in amazement as two young men in brocade walked in, followed by a very beautiful girl.
He had never seen such a beautiful woman in his life, and the Jin family was already a beauty, but compared with this one, it was like comparing the small jasper with the flying immortals outside the sky, no matter the appearance or bearing was simply a world of difference. "Ye Jinxian" was crispy on the spot.
"Huijuan, are you okay?" Yan Tian took the opportunity to pull Jin Shi to his side, looked at her slightly messy bun, and asked softly with hidden anger.
"Hehe, she, she's naturally very good."
"Ye Jinxian" stared at Yan Tian with a pair of mouse eyes, and wanted to step forward while speaking. But I don't want to be pushed head-on as soon as I take a step, so I can't hang and fall. Immediately, an iron tower stood in front of him.
"Hey! You ......" Ye Jinxian wanted to scold when he opened his mouth, but he didn't want to raise his head and face a pair of murderous phoenix eyes, and the unspoken foul words suddenly choked in his throat.
The owner of these eyes is too terrifying. Although he is also dressed as a noble son with brocade clothes and jade belts, his eyes are fierce as if he wants to eat people, and his face is full of scum, not like a noble son, but like a mountain bandit.
Ye Jinxian's eyelids jumped, swallowed back the mouth that was almost dirty, and unconsciously retreated.
When Qin Zhuen looked at Yan Tian from "Ye Jinxian" with a squint, he had murderous intentions. He narrowed his eyes and stared down at the pair of dripping rat eyes, thinking to himself, if he used the stainless steel dagger in his boot to gouge out these small mung bean eyes, would it be useless? Probably not even half an inch of the tip of the knife can be stained.
Yan Yu was not happy in his heart, but he was rational in the end. He felt Qin Zhuen's murderous aura, and subconsciously grabbed his sleeve. This is in Luozhou, and he must not cause trouble for his third uncle.
"Tian, Tiantian!" Jin Shi was shocked, holding Yan Tian's hand with both hands and shaking, "I, I'm fine!" ”
Tian Tian? "Ye Jinxian's" ghostly eyes flashed, and his heart suddenly realized. It turned out to be her!
"I wonder why Miss Yan is here?" "Ye Jinxian" suddenly became polite, if you ignore the fat and short figure, his salute appearance is really a bit of the demeanor of a scholarly son.
Yan Tian smiled at the "Ye Jinxian" in front of him who "borrowed the corpse to return the soul". This behavior is very similar to the original one. It looks like a tough bone!
"I have a big business, and I want to invite Huijuan to stay with me for two days. Huijuan, let's go. Saying that, Yan Tian pulled Jin Huijuan to go out.
"Wait!" "Ye Jinxian" opened his mouth to block and raised his foot to chase, but was immediately blocked by Qin Zhuen.
Although "Ye Jinxian" was very afraid of this bearded fierce god, he still dared to shout at the door: "I, I don't allow it!" It's about to be the New Year, and it's busy! Which good woman will go out in the moon? ”
Yan Tian didn't hear it at all, and dragged the Jin family out of the room, anyway, there were Qin Zhuen and Yan Yu in the way. It was so wise to bring them out today.
"Hey! You're ...... Mother-in-law! Ye Jinxian pointed at the back of the Jin family and shouted with his feet across the two door gods. There were probably one or two words in the middle that he forcibly swallowed back, "You, if you dare to go out of this door, I, I will divorce you!" ”
The Jin family, who was originally dragged by Yan Tian, couldn't help but pause, but shook Yan Tian instead. Yan Tian frowned and turned his head to look at the Jin family.
"Tian Tian, I, I'm really busy here, or you ......"
"The daughter-in-law will follow Miss Yan and go by herself! I'm all in the house! Jin was hesitating to leave, but before she finished speaking, her mother-in-law walked over from the other side of the courtyard and took the conversation.
The old couple of the Ye family didn't expect Yan Tian to be in such a hurry, and as soon as they asked the Jin family to go to Yan's house to live for two days, she disappeared like a gust of wind. When the second elder hurried to the back house, he saw the Jin family hesitating and refusing this scene.
What line is this? It was about her son's future, and Mrs. Ye hurriedly opened her mouth to relieve the siege.
"Father, mother." "Ye Jinxian" saw that the old couple was coming, and hurriedly saluted, a little more gentle and elegant than just now, "Now that the New Year is over, everything needs to be handled by the Jin family, how can you let her go out for a stroll when she is the most busy?" ”
"I have everything!" Mrs. Ye squeezed her eyes at her son, "It's the same for me to take care of it." ”
"How's that going to work? If you have a daughter-in-law, how can you let your mother work? "Ye Jinxian" was full of righteousness and awe-inspiring, and the righteousness was strict.
Mrs. Ye immediately burst into tears, and while wiping the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, she gave her son a louder and more frequent look:
"It's okay, it's okay. Miss Yan has a serious business with your daughter-in-law, not hanging out. Your father and I have agreed. It's good for you, too. ”
Although the son's thoughtfulness and warmth brought tears to his mother's eyes, his future is the most important thing in the end. Mrs. Ye was very afraid that this matter would be stirred up, so she couldn't help but miss a sentence to her son in the end.
"All kinds of benefits"? "Ye Jinxian" couldn't help but move in his heart, so he stopped entanglement, although he made a reluctant appearance, he still followed Mrs. Ye's words and let Jin go.
Yan Tian watched coldly from the sidelines, and couldn't help sneering in his heart, but he still said hello and said goodbye perfunctorily. Then he took Jin's hand and took the red fruit, and flew out of the Ye family's back house.
Of course, afterwards, when "Ye Jinxian" learned from his mother that this "ten thousand benefits" were just that the Yan Governor's Mansion recommended him to study in Guozijian, his face was full of horizontal flesh and jumped uncontrollably for a long time, and it took a lot of effort to squeeze out a smile, gritting his back molars and thanking the second elder of the Ye family.
……
Besides, Jin Huijuan was taken to Yan's house by Yan Tian to live for two days, and the two sisters talked about chess, tea, and embroidery. It's just that Jin Huijuan often frowns in a daze when no one is around, and her face is full of sadness. Let this ease and ease be mixed with a bit of haze.
Li Bantou was sent by Yan Wenkuan to visit the surrounding counties, but he did not find any clues related to the current "Ye Jinxian".
The father and daughter of the Yan family are starting to get a little angry. Since the second elder of the Ye family believes that this "Ye Jinxian" is the son of their "resurrection of the soul", then the government cannot forcibly interfere without finding any evidence to the contrary.
And at this time, that is, the third day that the Jin family lived in the Yan family, the Ye family finally couldn't help but send someone to pick up the Jin family back.
After breakfast, there was a hot brazier in the house, and the aroma of daffodils floated in the hot air. Yan Tianzheng and Jin Huijuan embroidered and laughed comfortably. Xiaozhu led a mother-in-law from Yefu in.
"You go back and tell your old lady that I have to embroider my wedding dress for a while." Yan Tian's face sank when he looked at the visitor, and he directly refused, "I want to be in a hurry, and I don't like the embroidery girl in the shop outside, so I can only bother Huijuan to work here for a few more days." When I go back, tell your wife that what I said last time counts. Go back. ”
The mother-in-law was stunned, but she didn't dare to disobey the prefect, so she had to kowtow and retreat.
"Tian Tian......" Jin Huijuan looked at the mother-in-law who had withdrawn and was very uneasy, and looked at Yan Tian's face and said, "Why don't I go back." The husband has just returned, and he sees that the New Year is approaching. I'll always live with you, and I'll never be like you. ”
The embroidery needle in Yan Tian's hand paused, raised his eyes and looked at her seriously, and asked, "Huijuan, do you really believe that person is your husband Ye Jinxian?" ”
"Self, nature." Jin Huijuan lowered her head, "Although the appearance is different, the behavior is the same as before." And his in-laws have already decided that he is his husband. Naturally, they will not admit their mistake. ”
Yan Tian lowered his eyes, sighed and said, "Women in this world are different from men. A woman has been severely criticized in her life, and if she makes a wrong step and damages her chastity and reputation, she may not be allowed to live in the world, and she will never recover. I've never been angry about this since I was a child, but I can't do anything about it. ”
"What cannot be tolerated in the world and cannot be recovered, how can chastity and reputation be damaged?" Jin Huijuan suddenly sneered, and the expression on her face became sharp, "A woman is not much stronger than an ant in this world. At home from the father, in marriage from the husband, and after the death of the husband from the son. To put it bluntly, it's just a lifetime of living on the food of men, such as fathers, husbands, and sons.
"If the unfortunate father does not act and the husband dies without children, then this woman is undoubtedly a dead end! Forever? Hmph, what's so scary about that? It's terrible to die without a place to bury! He died so easily, and after his death, he didn't even know whose ancestral grave he would be in, and whether he could be buried in a serious grave......"
Jin Huijuan stopped suddenly, she seemed to realize that the emotions she had just revealed were too radical, and she was not the usual weak and gentle self, so she quickly lowered her eyes to cover her emotions, and tightened the padded jacket on her body tightly.
She came out in a hurry, she didn't have time to bring any clothes, and no one from the Ye family came to deliver them, so she changed and dressed Yan Tian's clothes in the past two days.
I see. Yan Tian looked at Jin Huijuan silently for a long time. When she had just sent the Ye family's mother-in-law back, she seemed to feel that Jin Huijuan was secretly relieved. It wasn't her delusion.
Jin Huijuan didn't doubt or resist in her heart, but she didn't have the capital confidence to doubt and resist. Compared with being ruined by the fake Ye Jinxian, she is more afraid that she will become a widow. Although the Ye family is withered, the people are still there. A childless widow will never be able to escape the fate of being helpless and lonely in the future.
But what if you recognize that fake Ye Jinxian? Maybe no one will find out for the rest of their lives. Maybe she will be her grandmother Ye Shao for the rest of her life......
So do she and her father still have to track down the origin of this "Ye Jinxian"? Yan Tian looked at his friend and suddenly became confused.
The appearance of "Ye Jinxian" seems to have turned everyone from sadness to joy and ecstasy. The second elder of the Ye family, Jin Huijuan, a member of the Jin family......
So is there any need to continue investigating?
……
"Do you think it's necessary?" After lunch that day, Yan Tian came to his father's study to express his doubts. It just so happened that Yan Yu and Qin Zhuen were also there, Yan Wenkuan looked at the three of them, his face was solemn, and he asked with a hairbrush.
"I don't think it's necessary." Yan Yu looked at the other two left and right, and said with a relaxed expression, "Originally, Ye Jinxian's 'borrowing corpses to return souls' may not be fake. It is not without such a thing in all dynasties. Moreover, the father and son, mother and son husband and wife were reunited again, and they were all happy. Why bother to find someone unhappy? ”
Yan Wenkuan did not say anything after hearing this, but looked at Qin Zhuen again. Yan Tian frowned, and also went to see Qin Zhuen:
"What does Brother Qin think?"
"Uh......" Qin Zhuen didn't know what had happened in the past two days, every time he was looked at by Yan Tian's clear pool-like eyes, he immediately blushed uncontrollably and his heart beat. He lowered his head and touched his nose, but the corner of his eye involuntarily glanced at Yan Tian, "That, that...... I just want to ask, if you leave it alone now, in a few years, one day the details of this fake Ye Jinxian will be turned out, what will happen to the Jin family? ”
"Jin?" Yan Tian seemed to be shocked, pondered for a moment, and was quite gloomy when he spoke again, "Jin's father is a local teacher, and he prides himself on being a scholarly family, and he attaches great importance to family style, and he is a bit rigid and conservative, even stubborn. If it is revealed in the future, Huijuan will ......"
Yan Tian thought of the four words "father inaction" that Jin Huijuan said, and couldn't help frowning even tighter: "Her father shouldn't support her, maybe he will be ashamed of him." ”
That is to say, if it is revealed afterwards, Jin Huijuan is very likely to be humiliated in vain, and her mother-in-law's family will definitely not be able to stay. Then, you should look it up! And it's imminent! Qin Zhuen looked at Yan Tian and Yan Wenkuan and said categorically. While it has not yet been a big mistake, while it is not irreparable. If it is false, there will always be a day when the truth will be revealed, but it is only a matter of time before it is revealed.
"If this matter is revealed later, the disaster will be even greater. It's better to investigate to the end now and get to the bottom of this matter once and for all. Fortunately, there is no catastrophe yet, and everything is still in time. ”
As soon as Qin Zhuen said this, he immediately saw Yan Tian's eyes in front of him light up, like a cold star breaking through the sky, and the brilliance shimmered. His smiling eyes looked at him like this, and he was convinced, as if he agreed with his words.
Qin Zhuen's face suddenly became hot, as if a flame burned from his cheeks all the way to Duogen. He couldn't help but cough with his fist to his lips.
"Arne is right." Yan Wenkuan's face was solemn, and he nodded with his beard brushed, "This kind of scam will be revealed sooner or later, and it will not be said that the Jin family will be the biggest victim at that time." Moreover, we must not allow this trick to deceive the world and disturb the law.
"Tian Tian, I know that you have always been friends with the Jin family, so I hesitated. But this matter is like a poisonous sore, if it is only for the sake of temporary surface well-being and forbearance, one day the poisonous sores will break, and maybe it will kill people! ”
Yan Tian looked at his father, and was finally completely awakened and relieved of his doubts about this day. She nodded.
"However, Ye Jinxian is not necessarily fake." Yan Yu muttered in a low voice beside him, "Maybe it's really 'borrowing corpses to return souls'......"
"No way!" Yan Tian and Qin Zhuen said in unison, and then both of them were startled, and turned to look at each other.
Yan Tian raised the corners of his mouth, and immediately two flowers bloomed, as bright as the morning glow. Qin Zhuen suddenly coughed again, his face flushed.
Yan Yu looked at them and narrowed his eyes, but in his ears, he heard his third uncle continue in a very depressed voice: "But Li Bantou has been investigating for three days, and he hasn't found out the origin of this 'Ye Jinxian'!" If this continues, I am afraid that the Ye family will come to ask for someone again, and we will have no reason to blindly refuse. ”
"Third Uncle Yan, ahem...... That, I probably have a way to expose this fake Ye Jinxian. ”
Before the words fell, the three members of the Yan family looked at Qin Zhuen at the same time. Suddenly facing Yan Tian's eyes again, Qin Zhuen immediately coughed again.
