Chapter 23
But looking at the situation in the yard, Hu Nanxi immediately stopped talking when there was a smell of gunpowder.

While Hua Rujin was annoyed, she tried hard to think about what Hua Chengan said, and then recalled how she saw Ye Chengwei in the county government office today, and gradually realized that something was wrong.

Obviously, what he was discussing with himself was not the same thing, otherwise how could he have deliberately emphasized the sentence "that's all" after the question, and he didn't even know his intention to go to the county government at all.

awkward!

Madam Magistrate?

She suddenly realized that the marriage that Meng Yutang urged Hu Nanxi to withdraw from the Ye family was making a wedding dress for Hua Shiyu?
If Ye Chengwei was as unbearable as Mrs. Meng said, how could she be the top student in high school? As a scholar, she knows the daily life of a top student best.

This woman is really scheming and ruthless.

No wonder she desperately wanted to keep the original owner in Dou's house, but it turned out that she simply didn't want to block her daughter's way, she was really selfish to the point of insanity.

Glancing fiercely at Meng Yutang, Hua Rujin asked solemnly: "Second Aunt really just went to Meng's house to ask for money last night?"

"Cough, of course, otherwise, where else would I go?"

Meng Yutang pretended to be calm, coughed lightly, covered his mouth and cleared his throat.

"But I heard that my cousin is going to be the magistrate's wife?"

Hua Rujin looked at her meaningfully again.

"It's just children's nonsense, you go to worry about what to do."

Meng Yutang answered with a serious face.

"Too."

Seeing that she refused to admit it after being beaten to death, Hua Rujin deliberately provoked: "Second uncle was only a scholar back then, and second aunt spent hundreds of taels of silver to get grandmother to agree to this marriage. I'm afraid that if the Meng family spends all their wealth, they may not be able to see it."

"Hey, You"

Meng Yutang had a heart attack.

Thinking of the closed door to eat at Ye's house today and the tortuous experience of marrying into Hua's family back then, I was directly poked at the pain point.

At the beginning, because he was infatuated with Hua Junxu's beauty and knew that Hu Nanxi was greedy for money, he insisted on paying nearly 200 taels of silver to Hua's family to get Hu Nanxi's consent.

For this reason, old Meng was ridiculed for a long time.

Hu Nanxi heard that this dead girl was trying to provoke the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, so she hurried out to make a rescue: "What are you talking about, so what if your cousin wants to be the magistrate's wife, if she really has this ability, it is her luck."

But as soon as he finished speaking, he gradually realized that his daughter-in-law really had other plans to get rid of Ye's marriage.

Although I don't like Rujin, a dead girl, but if she is really married into Ye's family, it will be a great joy for Guangzong Yaozu, and I might earn a lot of money.

Hey, it's a pity after all.

Now I can only point to Erfang, the granddaughter, to give it a go.

Furthermore, now that the family has been separated, she has to be even more devoted to the second wife.

Not wanting to argue with Hua Rujin anymore, Hu Nanxi quickly turned his attention to Shu Jinxuan and the two little bean dings.

Glancing at the candied haws on the grass target held by his grandson, he accuses angrily: "It's hot weather, Jinxuan, why do you buy so many candied haws, but two three-year-old children can't eat enough. huh, it's a waste of money."

"I"

Shu Jinxuan looked at the candied haws scattered all over the ground in front of Hua Junxu with a distressed face, as if eating Huanglian in his mouth.

And Hua Rujin felt helpless towards the old woman's eccentricity.

Fortunately, I can leave this horrible yard tomorrow, otherwise I would have to die of aggrievedness.

Seeing that Shu Jinxuan, an elegant young man, was stunned by her reprimand, Hua Rujin sneered and shook her head: "Grandmother is really good at talking, she took the money from selling her children and let her grandson ruin her, my cousin loves my younger brother and sister Hua What I want is the clean money I earn, and I can always sleep peacefully even if I really waste the night."

"you you."

Hu Nanxi suddenly felt chest tightness and shortness of breath. He was panting heavily and was supported by Meng Yutang tightly. He couldn't find a rebuttal for a while, and began to cry and sing again: "It's really a good son and granddaughter I raised. Why did I remarry three times in my life?"

Hua Youen and Hua Muyang were annoyed by hearing it for a while, and immediately stopped crying, holding a bunch of candied haws in their hands, hurriedly covered their ears and sneaked into the house.

Meng Yutang and Hua Junxu also turned their faces away helplessly.

Hua Rujin, however, walked towards Meng Yutang with heavy steps, staring at her with dark eyes, making one's hair stand on end.

When passing by Meng Yutang's side, Hua Rujin's footsteps suddenly stopped, and a sinister smile appeared on the corner of her mouth:

No, it's just playing dirty, who wouldn't.

For a while, the idea of ​​following the path of the wicked and leaving the wicked with nowhere to go was born.

After his eyes paused on her for a few seconds, he strode back to the main room.

Seeing the two little Douding sitting on the bench dangling their calves as if nothing had happened, each holding a bunch of candied haws tightly in their hands, the surface has been instigated by their small mouths to be bald and they are not willing to eat, Hua Rujin is angry and distressed He stepped forward to stare at the two of them quietly, and immediately guessed that the little guy Hua Youen must have deliberately gone out to show off to Hua Chengan.

Speaking of which, he was a poor child. He hadn't received any love from Hu Nanxi in the past few years. Even Cai Baiwei was indifferent to this little girl, not as caring as he was to the original owner and Hua Muyang.

"In the future, tell sister what you want to eat, and sister will buy it for you, but we don't do that annoying thing."

Hua Rujin looked at her with burning eyes, and said in a gentle voice.

Hua Youen bit her little lip, and nodded slowly.

Hua Muyang handed the candied haws to Hua Rujin, and happily called out, "Sister, you eat."

"Sister has already tasted it."

Hua Rujin smiled and touched Hua Muyang's little head: "Eat quickly."

At this time, Cai Baiwei brought up the prepared meals, and beckoned Hua Junnian and Shu Jinxuan to sit down. Hearing the sound of crying and singing outside, she felt a little overwhelmed and wanted to go out.

But this time, he was stopped by Hua Junnian.

"Never mind, let's eat."

I thought that what the second sister-in-law did today was a good deed, but I never thought that she has been deliberately plotting against this family.

If it is true that he is blind, it is a pity for his daughter's marriage with the Ye family.

And the fact that his mother favored the second room in front of him today made him feel even more chilled.

I don't know what it must have been like for the child Rujin to be alone with them before.

Thinking of this, he became even more depressed.

The atmosphere in the room also became a little dignified, and everyone ate their meals in silence.

As night fell, the courtyard gradually became quieter.

The candlelight in the backyard of Hua’s house was trembling, and the busy figures printed in the willow window in the east whirled for a while, and then gradually stopped, and then the lights were extinguished one by one, and the whole yard was completely obliterated by the night.

In the dark night where you can't see your fingers, the Dou family in the south of the city seems to be shrouded in a thick layer of haze, making Nuo Da's mansion look extremely eerie.

The night guard was walking in the alley at the corner of the house with a lantern in his hand, his vest felt cold every time he took a step. No matter how he walked on the familiar path, he felt that he couldn't finish it, as if it had no end.

While his thoughts were wandering, suddenly a white shadow flashed past the eaves.

The lantern in the boy's hand dangled until he saw a familiar face, and his whole body began to tremble with the rhythm of the lantern swing.

"Three three. Three."

"laugh"

The lantern fell to the ground, and the flame gradually went out.

The white shadow flitted across the eaves, and disappeared in an instant, only a pair of bloodless Nuo Da pupils were staring at the sky.
