Wang Yu looked around and said in a low voice, "Yu's house... don't go there recently."
Hua Zhi was stunned, a little surprised that she would say that.
Wang Yu pulled her hair anxiously and whispered, "Weiwei is an impatient person. She hasn't come out since she got married at the beginning of the month. This has never happened before. I went to her house a few days ago, but it was her new husband who came out to see me. He said that Weiwei was not feeling well and couldn't see guests. Weiwei and I grew up together. It's impossible for her to be inconvenient to see me even if it's inconvenient for her to see anyone else."
Wang Yu lowered his voice and slowed down, then continued, "I can't tell others about this groundless thing, but after you left, Weiwei kept talking about you, saying that Jinyang is close to the capital, and she wanted to go there to look for you if she had the chance. People are so strange to each other. If I didn't know that you had only known each other for a few days, I would have thought you had known each other for many years."
Hua Zhidang didn't hear the mocking words behind her, and just asked, "What kind of person is Miss Yu's husband? What about Master Yu?"
"Master Yu has not been in good health since last year, otherwise he wouldn't have been in such a hurry to get Weiwei married. Apart from showing up at Weiwei's wedding, he hasn't been seeing guests since then. As for Weiwei's husband," Wang Yu thought for a moment, "he is quite elegant. Although he is a son-in-law, his bearing is not bad. If he was too bad, Weiwei's cousin wouldn't have been the matchmaker."
Hua Zhi immediately started to have conspiracy theories. If Zeng Xianglin was related to the Chaoli clan, how could she guarantee that he had no ill intentions in matters concerning the Yu family
"Miss Wang actually wants me to go to the Yu family."
Wang Yu raised his eyebrows, "Why does Miss Hua say that?"
"We just played a few rounds of cards together. Miss Wang is too superficial to be so polite considering our relationship." Hua Zhi waved her sleeves. "A big family can occasionally raise a little white rabbit, but Miss Wang is obviously not one of them."
"I underestimated Miss Hua." When talking to a smart person, Wang Yu no longer concealed his purpose. "I am worried about Weiwei, but I can't visit her too often. I want to ask you to go there to find out if she is okay."
That's right. He said that he wouldn't let her go, but he kept the matter vague and mentioned that Yu Weiwei cared about her. It was obvious that he was using this relationship to arouse her concern for Yu Weiwei and let her go to the Yu family. Hua Zhi didn't hate such calculations. After all, the starting point was not bad.
"Miss Wang also said that people are strange to each other. I came here last time thanks to Miss Yu's care. This time I came here with the intention of paying a visit." Hua Zhi bowed slightly, "I will come here the day after tomorrow."
Wang Yu returned the greeting and watched the man get on the carriage. She began to understand why Weiwei regarded this man of unknown origin as a friend. Some people did not need to say anything or make any promises, but they had a convincing demeanor. She had never even thought that this person might sell her out.
Hua Ling is right. A big family cannot raise a little white rabbit. Not her, not Hua Ling, and not Weiwei.
"Huahua, are you going to the Yu family?" Shaoyao asked, listening to the noise on the street outside.
"I don't want to take advantage of Yu Weiwei." Hua Zhi leaned against the carriage, thinking about the girl who covered her eyes when she cried last time she left. "I didn't want to disturb her after I knew she got married, but Wang Yu said so, so I should go. Besides, I remember she said that her husband was chosen for her by Zeng Xianglin."
Shaoyao immediately understood that there was something wrong with Zeng Xianglin, and this person also became suspicious.
After hearing about it, Gu Yanxi immediately asked someone to check the man's identity. The result was not surprising. He had a clean background. Although his family was poor, he had been studying since childhood and was a scholar with honors. If his parents were not seriously ill and his family had not been unable to continue, he would not have become a son-in-law. If what was found was true, such a son-in-law was considered presentable.
But the problem is that I don’t know how much truth there is in this.
Gu Yanxi didn't want Ah Zhi to take risks. "It's only a matter of time to solve this matter after catching Zeng Xianglin. It's not necessary to go to the Yu family."
"I have sent a visiting card and the other party has replied." Hua Zhi explained, "The women in Jinyang are a little different from those in the capital. They are probably more outgoing, so they are wilder, especially Yu Weiwei. If she finds out that there is something wrong with her husband, she will definitely not sit still and wait for death. If we have the same goal, cooperation will benefit both of us."
Gu Yanxi knew this, but, "Your safety is more important."
"If I had been in Jinyang for a long time, I wouldn't have done this, but I just arrived yesterday. All they could find out is that the mushroom business in Jinyang is mine. But they would feel more relieved if they suspected that I was from the Hua family because of my last name. After all, I am well-known in the capital for my business, and Jinyang is the closest to the capital, so it's not surprising that I've done business here."
"What if they see your Midas touch and want you to make money for them?"
Hua Zhi smiled, "My last name is Hua. No one would think that the Hua family would produce someone who would betray the country. After all, my grandfather was only exiled, he is not dead yet. Moreover, it has only been a short time since the fall of the Hua family, and their spirit is not broken. If the Chaoli clan really has a wise man, they will not be unaware of this."
Gu Yanxi held her hand, speechless for a moment.
"Don't feel guilty about something you can't do anything about. If I blamed you, how could we have come this far? No, we wouldn't have started at all." Hua Zhi lowered her head and kissed the back of the man's hand, then continued the previous topic. "Yu Weiwei is not a disgusting person. If she wants to save herself, I want to help her. This world is too unfriendly to women. She obviously can't live without him, but she still wants to humiliate herself. I am also a woman. It is beneficial to me and I can also help her. Why not?"
Gu Yanxi had no right to argue, so she could only give in and said, "Let Shaoyao go with you."
"If I dare not take her with me, there will be chaos."
Shaoyao, whose cheeks were bulging from eating, pretended not to understand and ate very attentively, as if she had never thought of that.
The next morning, Hua Zhi found a few things as souvenirs from the things she brought with her. They were not necessarily expensive, but since they were brought from the capital, they were a token of her thoughtfulness.
On the way there, Hua Zhi said, "Wang Yu said Yu Weiwei is not feeling well. When you see her later, you can check her condition. Don't feel her pulse. Just look at her. You are now my cousin, Lingniang."
"Ling Niang." Shaoyao said, and suddenly laughed, "Huahua, do you know what my original name is?"
Hua Zhi shook her head. To her, peony was just peony, and it had nothing to do with the name, so she never asked about it.
"Gu Qiaoling, my name is Gu Qiaoling."
This is really, Hua Zhi laughed, "What a coincidence."
Shaoyao leaned on Huahua's shoulder and smiled. Yes, it was such a coincidence, so coincidental that she felt that this name was born to belong to her.
