After much deliberation, the guard chief Ying decided not to let her husband worry about this matter, so he sent someone to keep an eye on Shen Lengkun. As soon as he came out of Shen Lengshi's room, he called him to him and asked him about the reason.
Shen Liankun was very surprised that she still didn't know anything: "Didn't the third brother tell my sister-in-law?"
"Your third brother is so busy right now that he can finish everything in just a few words. Even if he mentioned it, it was just one sentence. You also know that I was worried about Xie'er and your second brother's health when I first came here, so I guess I didn't pay attention. "Wei Zhang Ying said, "Sixth brother should tell me."
Shen Liankun sighed: "When we broke out, the second sister-in-law wanted the second brother to take Rou'er away. But the second brother wanted to take Yi'er because he had no time to take care of Rou'er, so the second sister-in-law killed Yi'er... !”
Wei Changying's expression changed: "What about the second sister-in-law?" When Shen Shuyan was sent to Xiliang earlier, she felt that the second wife's concubine was driving away the legitimate daughter, which seemed to have caused trouble, but she didn't expect that she should be here, and The result was so tragic... Shen Lianzhen was the one who beat his wife after hearing what his concubine said. There is still no evidence. This time Duanmu Yanyu actually killed Shen Lianshi's favorite concubine. Shen Lianshi took action...
"The second brother didn't expect the second sister-in-law to be so patient, and Yi'er was still begging him for help before he died. When his blood boiled up, he drew his sword and killed the second sister-in-law." Shen Liankun said in a low voice, "Then the second brother will go Take Rou'er away, but when Rou'er heard that she was leaving the imperial capital immediately, the second sister-in-law didn't follow her and insisted on going to say goodbye. The second brother... was in a state of confusion himself, so he took Rou'er with him anyway. She went to the house where her second sister-in-law and Yi'er died. Rou'er was young and always had a gentle temperament. How had she ever seen such a scene? In addition, the second brother didn't hide what happened to her, so she was suddenly frightened and went crazy. … The second brother had no choice but to take none of them.”
Wei Changying couldn't say anything for a long time, his face turned livid and livid again, and said: "According to this, in the future, we can't talk about the second sister-in-law and Yi'er with the second brother?"
"It should be like this." Shen Liankun said listlessly, "I was negligent this time. Yan'er asked my second sister-in-law and the others before she came in. However, I only gave her a few perfunctory words, but forgot to warn her."
"I know." Wei Changying concentrated for a moment and sighed, "In the future, as I said today, the second brother was stimulated because of the second sister-in-law and they were not able to break out, so I just heard this now No one should mention the second sister-in-law and the others."
Shen Liankun reminded: "But before the second brother scolded Yan'er, he said that it was the second sister-in-law who harmed Yi'er, and Yan'er dared to mention such words. You can already guess what Yan'er looked like."
"Let's just say that the second brother is heartbroken, and his words are confusing. In short, I can't admit it!" Wei Changying frowned, "Yan'er will be raised in my yard first. After all, at her age, she still needs someone to take care of and teach her. Anyway, she needs someone to take care of her. Let's talk about it after the filial piety period... Sixth brother, please be more considerate and try to persuade the second brother when you have time. After all, they are the biological father and daughter. What's more, the second brother now has only one child, Yan'er, and he is angry because of the second sister-in-law. Yan'er, isn't it your own flesh and blood that hurts?"
"Why don't I know this truth?" Shen Liankun said sadly, "But you also know, third sister-in-law, that the second brother had three daughters and one son before, and Yi'er was the only son he had longed for, and he valued it very much. . But the second sister-in-law was so cruel... I'm not saying that the second brother should be angry with Yan'er, but I can't persuade him at this time. "
Wei Changying sighed: "Then we can only separate them first. I will tell the public later that Yan'er has a hard journey and hurts her family, so she needs to rest. Just let her stay in my yard! When will we be together? Brother has figured it out, please tell me, and I will ask her to come over to visit."
Shen Liankun nodded and said, "I listen to my sister-in-law."
The uncle and sister-in-law agreed on the matter, and Shen Liankun took his leave.
In the evening, Shi Lier sent a rough servant to report that Shen Shuyan had woken up.
When Wei Changying found out, he called his eldest son Shen Shuguang, who was practicing calligraphy: "Guang'er is going to visit your fourth sister with your mother?"
Shen Shuguang was only halfway through practicing his calligraphy. Hearing the words, he put down his purple hair obediently and said, "My child, I obey."
Looking at his eldest son who was much more obedient and obedient than before, Wei Changying felt very uncomfortable. In the past, Shen Shuguang was the most naughty. Even Shen Shuxie, who was quieter than him, was led by this brother to become more and more arrogant when he grew up.
But now Shen Shuxie is still squeamish, but Shen Shuguang has grown up overnight.
His obedience to his parents and his seriousness in homework are heartbreaking.
Wei Changying couldn't help but take him with him from time to time.
When the mother and son arrived at the house where Shen Shuyan was placed, they saw Shi Li'er standing by. Under the half-rolled curtain, Shen Shuyan was leaning on the hidden bag with her long hair disheveled. Sitting on the edge of the couch was Ji Yiren, swaying her legs, pouting her mouth slightly, tilting her head and talking to Shen Shuyan in a low voice. Seeing Wei Changying and Shen Shuguang arriving, she jumped down and greeted Shen Shuyan and Shi Lier together: "I've met my adoptive mother!"
"No need to be too polite." Wei Changying said and introduced to Shen Shuguang, "You have met your sister Yan. This is your sister Ji, the adopted daughter that your mother adopted when she was in Xiliang. You But I have never seen it.”
Shen Shuguang stepped forward and saluted Ji Yiren.
Ji Yiren looked at him for a few times, said hello to his brother, and said nothing else.
Wei Changying had no intention of keeping them close at this moment - because after Shen Shuyan pointed at the door and asked the servants to go out, she immediately burst into tears and asked Wei Changying: "Third Aunt, father, he said it was my mother who killed me." "Liao Shuyi, is that so?"
"Your father is sad and confused. Do you believe what he said?" Wei Changying naturally refused to admit it and said seriously, "Think about it, except for you in Xiliang, your father is the only one of your two brothers who has survived serious injuries. How uncomfortable must your father be? Besides, who in our family doesn't know that your mother loves Yi'er? How could she harm Yi'er? This is all because of your father's excessive grief and unusual behavior. You’re the only child, so you can’t help but be considerate of him!”
Shen Shuyan was sensitive, but she was young and had always trusted Wei Changying. Now seeing the third aunt's confident words, her previous doubts turned into half-beliefs, and she tentatively said: "Mom is really not harmful. Shu Yi?"
"How is that possible?" Wei Changying frowned and said, "Don't you still believe Third Aunt? Otherwise, why don't you ask your Sixth Uncle?" He glanced at Shen Shuguang, who was standing behind him with his hands hanging down, and said, "Or your second brother."
Shen Shuyan hesitated for a moment and said, "I asked Uncle Six about my mother and their whereabouts before, and Uncle Six seemed very perfunctory in his answer."
"That's because he was also heartbroken and couldn't allow anyone to ask." Wei Changying said immediately.
"Second brother, did you hear anything when you left the imperial capital?" Shen Shuyan finally became suspicious, regardless of whether she would offend her third aunt, so she asked Shen Shuguang.
Shen Shuguang shook his head and said, "No."
He really meant what he said - earlier in Jintong Courtyard, he refused to say goodbye to Wei Changying, so Wei Changying pressed his sleeping point, and it was Zhu Lei who carried him to his grandfather's uncle. It wasn't until the sound of fighting when he left the city that he woke up. How could he know whether there was a tragedy involving the murder of his son and his wife in the Taifu's mansion
But Shen Shuyan didn't know the inside story. After she asked, she carefully observed her cousin's expression. She saw that Shen Shuguang's expression was indifferent. It was not the same as before, when he was always smiling and cunning, but it also didn't look like he was lying. She looks like... She considers herself to be an older sister, and she is also a very smart older sister. There is no way she can be coaxed by her younger brother. Shen Shuyan was convinced, and couldn't help but burst into tears, saying, "My mother is gone, my sisters are gone too, and I don't even dare to get close to my father like this. What should I do in the future?"
Wei Changying heard her mention Duanmu Yanyu, Shen Shurou and Shen Shuyue, but did not mention Shen Shuyi. He knew in his heart that his niece still disliked her concubine, and secretly thought that this would make it even more difficult for them to bring their father and daughter here. Together, otherwise, if Shen Lianshi notices it, there will probably be another disturbance.
Before she came here, she had already thought about how to separate Shen Shuyan's heart. At this moment, she sighed: "This time our family has encountered such a crisis... we can only support each other to get through it. Your eldest sister broke through with me. , before arriving in Yuzhu Town, I never dared to tell her about these things. As a result, she fell ill when she heard about it, and now she lives next door to you. "
Shen Shujing is gentle, sensible, considerate and has high prestige among her peers. Although Shen Shuyan is indulgent and willful, she has always admired this eldest cousin. Hearing this, he was surprised and said: "Eldest sister?"
When she received news on the way to put on mourning for her grandparents and mother, the Xiliang Army had not yet received news that Wei Changying and Shen Shujing had survived, so naturally there were no people who told her that the Shen family was still alive. When I heard that Shen Shujing was still alive, I was extremely excited: "Sister, are you really still here?"
"Naturally, she was extremely sad and had been feeling groggy and ill for several days." Wei Changying sighed softly, "In the afternoon, Divine Doctor Ji went to see her and prescribed a prescription. But he also said that this is I need someone to comfort me before I can think about it, but there are so many things going on now, and my third aunt is too busy... "
"I can go accompany my eldest sister!" Shen Shuyan said subconsciously.
That's what Wei Changying thought, but he still had to question it, such as saying that Shen Shuyan had just experienced a long journey. However, when Shen Shuyan suffered a huge blow from her father, Shen Lianshi, and was filled with discomfort, when she heard that her most trusted elder sister of her generation was there, she naturally couldn't wait to go over to meet him, insisting on moving to Shen Shujing's house, even naked He jumped off the couch to show that he had no problem taking care of Shen Shujing.
Seeing her enthusiasm, Wei Changying turned to praise and encouraged someone to prepare hot water for her and Ji Yiren to bathe and change clothes. Shen Shuyan insisted on pulling Ji Yiren, and Ji Yiren had no other peers at this time. They agreed to go there - and then sent them to Shen Shujing.
... On the way mother and son went back, Shen Shuguang asked his mother in a low voice: "Did the second aunt really kill the third brother?"
"Just pretend it didn't happen." Wei Changying was stunned for a moment. After a moment, he stretched out his hand to caress the eldest son's head and sighed softly.
Shen Shuguang murmured: "It's strange that I didn't see my second uncle and my third brother when I woke up..."
"Stop talking." Wei Changying caught a glimpse of a temporary rough messenger passing by not far away, and gently squeezed his hand.
Shen Shuguang paused obediently, but the haze in his eyes became even heavier. (To be continued)
