In early autumn, the weather is already a little cool, but at noon, the sun is still a little hot, and that bit of coolness has long been melted, and everyone has to find a cooler place to cool off the heat.

In the Marquis of Changxing's Mansion, the old Marquis Changxing and his wife were too lazy to go out, drinking tea in the house to relieve the heat, while waiting for a few guests who said that it was important or not, and that it was not suitable to say that it was not important.

And at the back door of the Marquis Mansion of Changxing, an old slave is leading four people in, and the dress of the four countrymen is incompatible with this noble Marquis Mansion, and the curious and excited eyes looking around are also like hillbillies entering the city.

Finally bypassing the crooked corridor, walking through large and small courtyards, and finally being brought to the residence of the Marquis of Changxing, the four of them were already dizzy, as if they were drunk and fluttering.

"Dayan, pinch me quickly, I'm not dreaming!"

The middle-aged man among the four couldn't believe his eyes, this Hou Mansion is really magnificent, he can blow with people for a lifetime after he goes back.

The middle-aged woman next to her glanced at her unproductive husband, "I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse, don't come in standing at that time, go out sideways!" ”

[Alas, it's not enough to go out sideways, this trip is to recognize relatives, my father is the long-lost son of the old marquis of Changxing. Alas, it's just ......]

Except for the fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl, the other three people all straightened their ears to listen to the next content, but the voice suddenly stopped, and the old slave who had just gone in to report came back and beckoned them in.

The three of them ate a big melon, and they were shocked as if they had been struck by lightning, who? Whose son is the old marquis? Ah no, who is the old marquis's own son?!

The old slave looked at them and was excited just now, but now they looked like they had been hit by some big blow, and they were puzzled, but they didn't say anything, urging the few people who were standing still to go in quickly.

I don't know if I was confused by the rumors who listened to my heart, what happened to my father and brother, she smashed her mother's arm, "Mother, what's wrong?" ”

Xu Yan hurriedly came back to her senses and smiled, "It's okay, it's okay, let's go." ”

A month ago, they began to be able to hear their daughter's voice, and they don't know why, but they can't seem to tell their daughter about what they can hear, because once they talk about this topic, it will be automatically silenced, and bad things will happen, so now they are not surprised to hear their daughter's voice, and they don't want to tell their daughter.

The group walked into the living room, the living room was not big, and there were two old people sitting at the head, said to be old men, only fifty or sixty years old, one with a gray beard, but in good spirits, and the other with silver hair, but also very healthy.

Both of them are dressed in brocade clothes, hosta and gold ornaments, looking so rich, the four of them, except for the girl, were stunned, and they forgot the shock just now for a while.

Until the girl's heart sounded again: [Is this my grandparents who have never met and died once they met? Oh no, although grandpa is going to die tonight, grandma lived to be ninety-nine. 】

Surprise!

Changxinghou and Mrs. Changxinghou looked at the four people standing at the head of the lower in shock, and confirmed that none of them opened their mouths, so where did this voice come from?

And turning his head left and right, the maids and servants around him were still respectful, and no one heard the voice just now.

Hearing the voice of Chuanwen, not only Changxinghou and Mrs. Changxinghou, but also Chuanwen's father and brother were also surprised, what's the matter, just recognize the relatives and have to cry first?

The rumor, who didn't know that his heart had been leaked, peeked at the Marquis of Changxing and the Marquise who were on the throne, and the voice of doubt sounded again: [What's the matter, why don't you speak? 】

The voice came again, and this time Changxinghou and Mrs. Changxinghou both locked on the source of the voice: the girl who was still wearing coarse linen clothes but still had clear eyebrows among the four people standing.

After all, Changxinghou had seen the world, so he chose to stand still first, he adjusted the expression on his face, and said with a smile: "Sit down." ”

The four of them were relieved, and after sitting down, the three of them were on pins and needles again, and when they didn't come in just now, they said that he was the son of Changxinghou, and then it was just, and now they heard that their cheap dad was going to die, and their fate was definitely not good.

They were all looking forward to Chuanwen filling in the content that was just behind, but Chuanwen was interested in the pastries and tea on the table, his eyes wandered back and forth on those delicate pastries, and he said in his heart: [It's so tangled, these pastries look much better than the Tang Ji shop in the town, but the host hasn't spoken yet, will it be said that there are no rules in the countryside when he picks it up and eats it. 】

Chang Xinghou set his eyes on those pastries, are they delicious? It's all ordinary pastries, he can't get used to eating them, they're too sweet and greasy. However, when I saw the clothes of the four people, I remembered that they lived in the countryside, and they needed to plan for three meals, so they must have never eaten these pastries, and their eyes were much kinder, and they asked, "Have you had lunch?" If you're hungry, eat some pastries and some tea, and I'll ask someone to prepare some more for you. ”

"Thank you, Mrs. Houye!"

Chuanwen smiled sweetly and picked up a piece of pastry in the shape of flower petals, his eyes lit up, and his heart was full of admiration.

[In ancient times, rich people were particular about making things, not only to taste but also to look good, blessed and blessed......]

Changxinghou stroked his beard and smiled more kindly, as if he had forgotten what he had just heard that he would die tonight, several grandchildren in his family were well-behaved every time they came to see him, not interesting, this girl in front of her was quite interesting, she was serious on the surface, and there were so many words in her heart.

From this, he couldn't help but think of the grandchildren who were raised by his side, could they also be well-behaved on the surface and rich in words in their hearts? I wonder what they think when they come to see me.

The playful Changxinghou didn't notice his wife's iron-black face, and looked at Chuanwen's gaze kindly.

"You're Chuanrui?"

Mrs. Changxinghou's voice sounded, looking at the middle-aged man among the four, who was pretending to drink tea at this time, but was actually listening to his daughter's voice with his ears pricked up.

Unexpectedly being named, Chuanrui hurriedly got up, and before he could answer, Mrs. Hou asked again: "What about the jade pendant on your body, show it to me." ”

Mrs. Changxing's tone was indifferent, she didn't seem to like her family very much, Chuanrui wondered in his heart whether he was not from this Mrs. Hou, and touched his head embarrassedly.

"What, lost?"

Seeing him like this, Mrs. Changxinghou frowned.

Changxinghou couldn't help but sit upright, the jade pendant was a very important token, although he had sent someone to find out, the person in front of him was his son who had been lost for more than thirty years, but without the jade pendant, it was a pimple.

"I didn't lose it, I didn't lose it..." Chuanrui was a little embarrassed, and he was embarrassed to take it out in public.

Xu Yan was about to get up to explain the situation, when she heard her daughter's insolent laughter.

[Puff hahahahaha, that jade pendant is a baby at the bottom of the box in my house, and I took it out once a month ago, and I never saw my father take it out again. Although my father didn't say it, but it was written in the book, my mother was afraid that my father would lose it, so she hid it in the crotch of his pants, poofhahahaha, he just ran into a robber, as long as the man didn't pull my father to bed, he couldn't find the jade pendant, hahahaha]

Chuanrui: ...... Girl, it's not good for you to laugh at your father so unscrupulously.

Xu Yan's expression also stiffened when she heard the robber pull her husband to bed, she should... No way... Otherwise, next time, let's find a more hidden place to hide...

Brother Chuanwu: ......

Last month, he took the jade pendant to be, I... My hands are not clean anymore...

"Brother, you eat, it's delicious."

Chuanwen saw that his brother withdrew his hand stretched out to the pastry, and silently put his hand under the table, so he was curious and persuaded.

But when he saw his brother's face turned like a pig's liver, he asked suspiciously: "What's wrong brother, are you not feeling well?" ”

Chuanwu shook his head at her, woo woo woo it's okay sister, my brother has nothing to do with these pastries today, you can eat more for your brother.

Chuanwen patted his brother's shoulder to comfort him, and nodded at him, brother, sister will eat it for you.

At the same time, Chuanwen sighed inwardly: [Alas, my brother really can't catch up with the heat when he eats, but he is not feeling well today, and he is not fine when he comes]

Seeing the action of wiping his hands under Chuanwu's table, Changxinghou and Mrs. Changxinghou were embarrassed by the vulgar language of Chuanwen: Is there a possibility, it is not unwell.

At this time, the rumor of happily eating pastries sounded again, [Alas, we can eat something good today in this Hou Mansion. As soon as grandpa dies tonight, tomorrow we will be charged with the crime of killing grandpa, and our mother is centrifuged, and we are calculated by the adopted son's family. 】

This is the second time that Changxinghou has heard the rumor that he will die tonight, but he is very healthy, and even the old rheumatism has not been committed for a long time, how can a good person die?

Changxinghou wanted to ask, but no sound came out, but he opened his mouth.

Changxinghou's expression gradually shocked, and he looked at his own wife, and saw the same shock in the other party's eyes, because at the same time as Changxinghou opened his mouth, Changxinghou's wife also opened her mouth to ask, but there was no sound either.

Chuanwen didn't notice anything unusual, he concentrated on eating the pastries, eating what was on his plate, and his eyes were already on the plate in front of him.

[The plate in front of my dad looks even more delicious, and I don't know if my dad will give me some, uh... I still don't want it, my dad has to dig out the crotch of his pants to take the jade pendant...]

Chuanwen thought that there was a chill in his back, but her father was about to roll his eyes angrily.

"It's just lost!"

Chuanrui's categorical voice echoed in the quiet living room, and Chuanwen, who was eating fragrantly, was startled by the coldness, and almost got rid of the peach crisp he had just taken.

She looked at her father suspiciously, and she didn't know why her father was so excited, and her chest was breathing heavily.

[Lost?] Shouldn't the plot be that my father was embarrassed to say that he was hiding in the crotch, and then Changxinghou asked him to take his father to another room and take it out, and then my father was disgusted, and the maids and servants in the house all used this to point at my father's nose and laugh at it? 】

[Hey, what's wrong with my dad? Why do you seem more excited than you were just now? 】

Chuanwen took a bite of the peach crisp, [Well, it's delicious. 】

Xu Yan with a complicated expression: ...... Girl, don't say a word, your father is about to be angry with you.

Chuanrui was no longer angry, so angry that it turned into a weird hehe sneer, he had a good life in Qingshui Village, why did he have to come to the muddy waters of their Hou Mansion, what do you love! He went back and sold the jade pendant! What biological parents, they haven't done anything for him for 30 years, and after 30 years, they will come to torture him and his children, dream!

"Go home, go home!"

Chuanrui pulled his daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law and was about to leave, and Chuanwen was excited in his heart: [What's the matter, what's this, the plot has collapsed? 】

But they were stopped by Changxinghou and Mrs. Changxinghou, the son wanted to admit it, and they wanted to know more about the old marquis's death tonight.
