No one saw what happened that night.
I don't know when he left the house, when he died, or what he experienced before he died, but his body floated up in the river, and fishing tools were thrown by the river, so It was concluded that he had accidentally drowned.
When Yu Tang heard this, he couldn't stand up for a long time.
Looking at her, A Shao felt very scared, and asked cautiously: "Then, miss, I, should I continue to ask?"
"No need!" Yu Tang's heart seemed to be on fire, and it seemed to be soaked in ice water.
The people living near the Wei family farm are all acquaintances of the Wei family. Ah Shao is a familiar face. If she is interested, she can quickly find out who she is. sad. This matter ends with her.
Let the people of the Wei family think that he died by drowning.
What is the truth, she will find out.
If he really died of a conspiracy, no matter what the reason was or who did it, she would seek justice for him and give him justice if she risked her life.
Yu Tang supported the table and got up slowly, and pushed open the window lattice.
The Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon.
The sweet-scented osmanthus is in full bloom.
The aroma is tangy.
This is a family reunion festival, and everyone should be happy.
Yu Tang was sitting under the sweet-scented osmanthus tree in the courtyard making head flowers.
This time she made camellias. All kinds, all kinds of materials, different colors. In two or three months, she will be able to fill several boxes. At that time, in addition to giving to mother, eldest aunt, and Ma Xiuniang's family, she plans to send some to the female family members of the Wei family.
Yu Tang lowered his head, and slowly sewed the cut velvet petals together one by one, and soon he could make a flower, and then put on green leaves, or made morning dew out of beads, or made out of crushed velvet petals. The cloth head is made of bees resting on it, looking alive.
The zhang velvet is also good, most of it is maroon red, with thin fluff, it feels like real camellia petals, delicate and tactile.
Some drops of water fell from nowhere, and wet the lu silk that she cut into green leaves in her hands.
Yu Tang frowned.
When I looked up, I found that the sky was clear and cloudless.
Where did the water drop come from.
She was surprised, feeling uncomfortable on her face, and touched her face with one hand, water in one hand.
Yu Tang was a little dazed, but Shuangtao's exclamation sounded in his ears: "Miss, what happened? Why are you crying so hard? Me, I'm going to call my wife..."
She grabbed Shuangtao and said, "Am I crying?"
Shuangtao looked at her with some fear, pointed to her face, and whispered: "Your face is full of tears."
"Don't let the wife know." Yu Tang said, "Go fetch water and let me freshen up."
Shuangtao was also afraid of scaring Mrs. Chen, so she went to fetch water.
Yu Tang went back to the house and looked in the mirror.
It was exactly as Shuang Tao said, her eyes were red and her face was full of tears.
Yu Tang sat awkwardly in front of the mirror for a while, her mind was going back and forth, she didn't even know what she was thinking. When Shuang Tao fetched water and came in to freshen up and change clothes, Ah Shao suddenly came to report, saying that Wei Xiaochuan wanted to see her: "Just wait at the back door."
"I'll go and see." She got up and went to the backyard.
Wei Xiaochuan carried a school basket and leaned against the wall of their backyard boredly kicking the pebbles at his feet.
Seeing Yu Tang, he immediately stood up straight and said, "Miss Yu, I have something to talk to you alone."
Yu Tang nodded, let him in, and sent Shuang Tao and A Shao away.
Wei Xiaochuan asked her: "Why did Ah Shao ask about my second brother? Is there something your family is hiding from our family? Also, what did you mean when you asked me at the county school last time?"
Yu Tang didn't expect Wei Xiaochuan to be so early-witted and astute. She was thinking of an excuse to fool Wei Xiaochuan, but Wei Xiaochuan said: "If you tell me the truth, maybe I can help you. If you lie to me, I will tell the two of you about it." The elders of the family."
"Ah!" Yu Tang opened his eyes wide.
Wei Xiaochuan showed a smug expression on his face, and said: "Don't think that I don't understand anything at a young age. You came to the county school quietly to meet me, and the elders in the family must not know. A Shao is also probably acting on your orders. I I advise you to be honest, and don't provoke me to use thunder."
No matter how sad Yu Tang was, these words from Wei Xiaochuan drove away.
She couldn't laugh or cry, and said: "You are so young, you actually threatened me. Are you not afraid that I will go to your house to complain?"
"It should be that you are more afraid of me suing?" Wei Xiaochuan snorted, "Don't think I don't know, if you want my parents to know, you would have sent someone to ask directly, which shows that what you have done is shameful." He said again: "I'm not threatening you, it's because what you did was too dishonest. After I went back, I thought about it carefully. The things you asked about my second brother were all about how my second brother died. When he said this, his little face gradually became serious, and there was deep sadness in his eyes.
"I also think that my second brother is not such a reckless person, I thought I was thinking too much... You must know something." He looked at Yu Tang for help, "You, just tell me! Even if I owe you a big favor, I will definitely repay you in the future."
Yu Tang was stunned.
Wei Xiaochuan believed that she knew something inside, and looked at her stubbornly, as if he would never give up if she didn't tell her.
Yu Tang let out a long breath.
If this is a crime, then it was caused by her in the first place, and she caused it. Could she be able to hide it by covering it up? Just pretend nothing happened
Time does not wait for her, not to mention she urgently needs someone to help.
"Okay!" Yu Tang made a decision almost immediately, she said solemnly, "I can tell you, but you have to swear that you will never tell anyone about this matter."
As for the consequences of this incident, she will bear it.
Wei Xiaochuan hesitated for a while before swearing.
Yu Tang told Wei Xiaochuan her worries, but she didn't mention the painting. She was afraid that Wei Xiaochuan or the Wei family would also be involved, and only said that she suspected that someone was jealous.
"I guessed right, I guessed right." Wei Xiaochuan murmured, "I just said, my second brother is such an honest person, and he's going to propose marriage the next day, how could he just say goodbye without even saying hello?" I ran out. The big river and creek near my farm was like my second brother’s backyard. How could my second brother catch a fish and it would be gone. It was the time when the frogs were fat and the fish were beautiful. As long as the children in the farm were free, they would We went to catch frogs and fish together in twos and threes, why no one saw my second brother..."
For a half-grown child, the distraught look is particularly distressing.
Yu Tang wanted to comfort him, but he suddenly raised his head, stared at Yu Tang, and said, "Miss Yu, is it the Li family?"
This child has become a genius!
Yu Tang's mouth didn't close for a long time.
Wei Xiaochuan said bitterly: "I just guessed it was them. Except for their family, no one insists on marrying you."
Yu Tang blushed and apologized in a low voice: "I'm sorry. I don't have proof yet, I don't know if they did it..."
"What do you have to apologize for?" Wei Xiaochuan said dissatisfiedly, "If there is a fault, it is their fault. Could it be that because you are good-looking, they are all eager to fill, and they all want to push this responsibility on you? You You don't have to apologize to me, and you don't have to apologize to anyone."
"Wei Xiaochuan!" Yu Tang murmured, his vision suddenly became blurred.
In the previous life, whether Li Jun died or Li Duan coveted her, Lin always said that it was her fault, and flies would not bite seamless eggs. It took her a long time to understand that sometimes, the truth is on the side of the few.
She is not wrong, it is those people with dirty minds who are wrong.
Since she was reborn, this was the first person who told her so firmly that she was not wrong.
Yu Tang burst into tears.
Wei Xiaochuan was full of disgust, and said: "You women just like to cry! Cry about big things, cry about small things, cry when you are happy, cry when you are sad, and cry when there is nothing. Can you stop crying, you are so annoying do you know?"
His mouth was full of complaints, but his ears were red.
Yu Tang laughed through tears, tried to touch his head, and said: "It's my fault, I will never cry like this again."
Wei Xiaochuan turned his head to avoid her hand, and said, "Then I'm leaving. I'll tell you when I have any news."
Yu Tang was afraid that he would mess up, so he quickly stopped him, and said: "Let's investigate this matter first. As long as we find out, no matter who did it, I have an idea to deal with them. Don't make up your own mind. It's broken." My big deal."
"Got it, got it." Wei Xiaochuan said indifferently, "Even if I want to do something, I can't do it for a while, I have to find a helper!"
It turned out that she was Wei Xiaochuan's chosen helper!
Yu Tang finally understood why Wei Xiaochuan came to her and said such words.
However, she also needs help. If Wei Xiaochuan helps, it will definitely be easier to use than Ah Shao.
Yu Tang asked Shuangtao to stuff Wei Xiaochuan with a box of snacks, and said, "You are growing tall, so take it to the school to eat. If you can't finish it, give it to your classmates."
The life of the Wei family is not bad, but they are country gentry after all, with many sons and heavy burdens, and the children are not in the habit of eating snacks, let alone sharing them with their classmates. Wei Xiaochuan is a bit withdrawn in the school, not because he doesn't know how to make friends, but mainly because it costs money to make friends. He loves his parents and is unwilling to spend this money.
He didn't want Yu Tang's snacks, he rolled his eyes and went back, Yu Tang said: "It's your reward for helping me find out the news."
Feeling her kindness, Wei Xiaochuan hesitated for a moment, then accepted the dim sum, thinking that when he becomes a high-ranking official in the future, he would buy her a car of ten cars and eight cars, and return her favor.
Yu Tang looked at Wei Xiaochuan's lone back and shook his head with a smile, feeling that this child was so early-witted that it made people's hearts ache.
Within two days, Yu Yuan came back.
Yu Wen, Yu Tang and he avoided Chen Shi and talked in the study.
"Master Qian is very grateful that we went out to tell him." Yu Yuan lowered his voice and said, "He said that when he first saw the picture, he also suspected it was a nautical chart, but he didn't want to get involved in it, so there was nothing. Said. He also felt that this matter was a bit big. He was going to hide with his senior brother for a few years. If the business there could be done, he would not come back, so we don’t have to worry about him. Going to Fujian, he has a friend there, when he was young, he liked to study maps, maybe he knew him. He also told me the address of that person, let us try it.”
Yu Wen and Yu Tang couldn't help but feel happy when they heard the words and breathed a sigh of relief.
"That's good!" Yu Wen said even more, "It can be seen that what the old ancestor said makes sense, and good deeds are rewarded. We are just going to remind Master Qian, but Master Qian has helped us so much Just in time, I don’t need to find out who’s people are doing business in Fujian, I just go straight to the person introduced by Master Qian.”
Yu Tang nodded repeatedly.
Mrs. Chen knocked on the door outside and complained: "Why did you close the door again? I have something to say, you open the door quickly."
The three of Yu Wen looked at each other, and Yu Tang hurriedly went to open the door.
Frowning, Mrs. Chen walked in, and said: "It's a refreshing autumn, what are you talking about in the yard, what are you doing hiding in the study?"
Yu Wen hurriedly changed the subject, and said, "Is there anything urgent you need from us?"
Chen said: "There is a matchmaker at home..."
The villain in Yu Tang's heart immediately erected a shield.
The matter of the Li family has not been resolved yet, so at this time, she is harming whomever she is discussing with!
"Mom, you should put aside my marriage for now!" She said eagerly, "The Mid-Autumn Festival will be celebrated soon, and after the Mid-Autumn Festival is the Double Ninth Festival, let's wait until October!"
Mrs. Chen laughed when she heard "Pu Chi", and said, "If I insist on deciding on your marriage right now?"
Yu Tang opened his mouth wide, but saw narrowness in his mother's eyes.
"Mom!" she said in a daze.
Mrs. Chen nodded her forehead with a smile, and said with a smile, "What do you think you are? You came to our house to propose marriage to you?"
Yu Tang asked blankly, "Isn't it?"
Mrs. Chen laughed loudly and said, "Don't we still have your elder brother in our family?"
Everyone was shocked.
Yu Yuan's face was flushed.
Yu Wen hurriedly asked: "What's going on here? Tell A Yuan about your relationship, why didn't you ask your sister-in-law to find you here?"
yes!
Yu Tang listened with pricked ears.
Mrs. Chen said: "It's the Wei family. Mrs. Wei entrusted them. It's a pity to talk about the fact that Ah Tang and their family's second child. She wants to continue to be in-laws with our family. I'm afraid that my sister-in-law will have any ideas, so I let the matchmaker come to find out first. My tone, I came to you to discuss this matter."
Yu Yuan's face was flushed red, he wanted to leave but he wanted to listen, he stood there in a dilemma.
Yu Wen said: "Aren't there only five sons in their family? Where did the daughter come from? Could it be the head of another house in the Wei family?"
Chen covered her mouth and smiled, and said: "Mrs. Wei wants to be a matchmaker for her niece who grew up in Wei's house and our family's A Yuan."
"That little girl!" Yu Wen obviously had an impression, and said, "Yes, yes, I think it's okay. Then you go and talk to your sister-in-law. The Wei family is a kind person, and it's a pity that I didn't get married with their family. .”
Mrs. Chen glanced at Yu Yuan with a smile, and said, "Then I'll go there. The matchmaker is still waiting for an answer!" Saying so, the person didn't move, Yu Yuan was so ashamed that he wished he could shrink into a ball. it is good.
Yu Wen and his wife chuckled, and asked Yu Yuan: "What do you say? Although marriage matters are up to your parents, we also hope that you will have a good life. You also want to think about it."
Yu Yuan blushed so much that he could bleed, and nodded indiscriminately.
