The best farmhouse

Chapter 219 Accident
So in the past two years, he has been deliberately ignoring the children.

He hasn't fulfilled his responsibilities as a father for a day.

Thinking of leaving such a small life like this, Ke Tianlin felt guilty and regretful.

Thinking about him now, it is impossible to have children in the future, and thinking about Ji Yanran's death, Ke Tianlin felt a little regretful for the first time.

But in just a split second, Ke Tianlin's heart hardened again.

To get to where he is today, he has sacrificed too much.

He must stand at the highest point and let the Ke family become the richest businessman in the ancient state of Zhou.

Zhao Canniang and Mrs. Qin Shiji looked at Xian'er, and everyone was very happy.

Qin looked at Zhao Canniang and said, "The child seems to be very attached to you."

Zhao Canniang nodded and smiled: "He believes me! The poor child doesn't know how much he has suffered. From now on, the child's surname will be Ji, and everyone in the Ke family will not suspect that he is an adopted child. Come on. Xianer Ke Tianlin has never met, even face to face, godmother, let the child stay with me these few days! I think he still seems to have some distrust of people outside."

When Mrs. Ji stepped forward to hug the child just now, she already felt that the child was abnormal, so Mrs. Ji nodded without hesitation.

"I can do whatever Canniang says, as long as I can see the child from time to time, I know I can't rush this matter, take your time, he will always accept us."

Zhao Canniang looked at Xian'er with a smile and said with emotion: "Xian'er looks a lot like Sister Ji, especially her pair of eyes. Ganniang remembers that if anyone asks, she will say that she was adopted from Zhuangzi, and don't tell Xian'er about him. Don’t tell me about his life experience, at least for now, let’s talk about it when he grows up in the future!”

Because when it comes to Ji Yanran, Ke Tianlin must be mentioned. Now Ke Tianlin has become a little scary, and Zhao Canniang doesn't want anything to affect the child.

"I see. Your godfather doesn't know that the child is back. If he knows, he doesn't know how happy he will be."

Zhao Qingfeng and Ji Zhifu came back in the evening, when they saw the child, they were overjoyed, the family was eating at the table, Xian'er looked happy.

He had never experienced such warmth, and it turned out that there were no people who loved him.

Zhao Canniang told him that it was because he was cheated away when he was a child, so he was never found, and now that he is found, he will be treated well in the future.

Time passed day by day, and it was the end of the year in a blink of an eye.

The news from the bodyguard bureau was that it was safe, Zhao Canniang and Chen Zhongqiu felt relieved.

In the past few days, Zhao Canniang has been counting the time with her fingers every day. Seeing that she is about to give birth in more than ten days, she feels very nervous.

There were patches of snowflakes falling in the sky outside, Xian'er was sitting inside the room and was scribbling on the paper with a brush.

I don't know if it was inherited from Ji Yanran's hobby, Xian'er likes to paint very much, from the first time she saw brush and ink, she likes to tinker with it every day, Zhao Canniang is also happy to see Xian'er like this.

When I see Xianer, I always feel that Xianer has a maturity that is not found in children of the same age.

Zhao Canniang walked into the room from the corridor.

There are still a few snowflakes floating on the shoulders.

"Godmother, come and take a look at Xian'er's paintings." Xian'er shouted to Zhao Canniang with a smile.

Xian'er has become a lot more cheerful recently, the children are innocent, and Zhao Canniang deliberately guides them to happy things, Xian'er now doesn't think about the unhappy things in the past, and she mentions Zhuangzi less and less in front of Zhao Canniang.

Zhao Canniang walked in front of Xian'er, looked at the large clumps of ink on the rice paper, and the lines outlined by a few strokes, but really couldn't understand what was drawn.

Looking down at Xianer's big shining eyes, Zhao Canniang couldn't help but stroked Xianer's head and asked dotingly, "What did Xianer draw?"

Xian'er said proudly: "Mother, I drew flowers and clouds. Look here are flowers and here are clouds."

Xianer pointed to a few simple lines and explained.

Zhao Canniang watched for a long time, and finally saw some clouds and flowers.

Children need encouragement, Zhao Canniang touched Xian'er's head and said: "Xian'er is good, your painting is getting better and better, and next year, Ganniang will send you to a private school to study."

Xian Er nodded: "I want to study in a private school."

Mrs. Chen walked into the room with her maid at this time.

Looking at Zhao Canniang and Xian'er, she walked over.

"Xian'er is painting again!" Mrs. Chen asked with a smile.

Xian'er climbed down from the stool and ran to Madam Chen: "Grandma Chen, you are here, Xian'er hasn't seen you for two days, I miss you so much."

Mrs. Chen looked at Xian'er dotingly, hugged Xian'er, and said with a smile: "Xian'er's mouth is so sweet, but grandma likes it very much. Xian'er is about to celebrate the Chinese New Year. Just tell grandma what you want. Satisfy you."
Xian'er blinked, thought for a while, and finally said: "I want candy, and I can give the candy to my sister when the godmother gives birth to her."

This is the first time that Xian'er said that the child in Zhao Canniang's stomach is her younger sister.

Mrs. Chen knows that Tong Yan is sometimes very accurate, especially for children under three years old.

Sitting on a chair with Xian'er in her arms, Mrs. Chen asked with a smile: "How does Xian'er know that the baby in the belly of the godmother is a younger sister?"

Xian'er thought for a while, with a thoughtful face, and finally said: "Xian'er just knows, Xian'er just knows that there is a younger sister in the belly of the godmother."

The smile on Mrs. Chen's face was even bigger.

"Xian'er is good, Xian'er is going to play with the wooden horse, grandma has something to tell your godmother."

Xian'er got off Mrs. Chen and ran to the wooden horse.

Zhao Canniang had been standing aside looking at the two of them just now, but at this moment she heard Mrs. Chen said that she had something to look for her, so she sat on the chair next to Mrs. Chen.

"What's the matter, mother?"

Mrs. Chen looked at Zhao Canniang's belly, smiled and said: "If what Xian'er said is true and she is a girl, I am also happy, a child's words are very accurate."

After Mrs. Chen finished speaking, Zhao Canniang's hand touched her stomach involuntarily.

"It's the same whether it's a son or a girl."

Mrs. Chen continued: "Isn't it the Chinese New Year? There are still some things that have not been dealt with by Zhuangzi. I am busy with Zhuangzi's affairs every day, and I don't have time to deal with family affairs. I just have time today, so I came to have a look. , how do you want to spend this Chinese New Year?"

Zhao Canniang thought for a while, and finally said: "I don't know yet! I don't think there will be much to do this year, just keep it as usual."

Mrs. Chen came to listen to Zhao Canniang's opinion.

Hearing what Zhao Canniang said, she stopped talking about it.

"By the way, your grandma sent someone over yesterday, telling you to come over tomorrow."

Zhao Canniang couldn't help frowning: "What did they ask me to do?"

After Zhao Canniang threatened Lai Shi, Liu Shi and Qin Xue like that last time, the three of them calmed down and did not make any troubles again.

just now...

Zhao Canniang felt that the matter was not simple.

When Mrs. Chen was chatting with Qin Shi, she knew what happened to Zhao Canniang and Lai Shi, and she was also a little angry, especially when she heard that Liu Shi treated Zhao Canniang like that, she felt even more upset for Zhao Canniang.

They were all people who came from that step. Mrs. Chen knew how painful that feeling was, and felt that the cruel words Zhao Canniang said were justifiable.

Mrs. Chen shook her head when she heard Zhao Canniang's question: "I don't know what it is, I'll ask someone to inquire later, if you don't want to push it."

Zhao Canniang thought for a while, now she has a baby in her stomach, and she is about to give birth soon, it is really inconvenient to walk around.

"Mom, you sent someone to refuse me, just say that I have a big belly and it's inconvenient to walk around, plus it's snowing..."

Mrs. Chen nodded: "Well, don't think about this matter. I will send someone to reject it for you later. By the way, I met a distant relative the other day. Her son died last year and his wife is now looking for a suitable one. Man, that family's family conditions are quite good, so I was wondering if I should tell your cousin?"

Mrs. Chen also knew Qin Xue's virtues.

She dreamed of marrying a rich man, and Mrs. Chen felt a little displeased, but thinking that if Qin Xue didn't marry, she would always think of being Zhao Canniang and Zhao Qingfeng, and she was not at ease.

After hearing this, Zhao Canniang shook her head directly: "Mother, I think it's better to forget about it. If you don't say anything else, just my aunt, you think that if Qin Xue is married, then the family of distant relatives may have uneasy life from now on. Mother, you should help me find out What happened to the Qin family recently."

Half a month ago, Qin Zhong went to another place, and now Qin Daxiong is in charge of the Qin family, and there are two other shopkeepers in front to help, but there is nothing wrong with it.

After all, Qin Daxiong doesn't need to be the master of everything, big or small, Qin Daxiong just has a nice name.

Liu's prejudice against her is deeply ingrained, and Zhao Canniang knows that such prejudice cannot be eliminated after a while.

Anyway, she is living a comfortable life now, so she doesn't think too much about it.

"Mother, Fifth Sister's marriage is coming soon!"

Zhao Canniang thought of Chen Yunluo, that naive fifth younger sister.

Mrs. Chen smiled: "You still remember Yunluo, that girl's marriage is coming soon, the matchmaker has talked about several marriages recently, and I just want her to find someone who knows the cold and the hot, our Chen family has a lot of dowry, when the time comes she There is no shortage of money, but that girl is very wild, and I am worried that she will suffer."

Chen Yunluo was only 12 years old, and Zhao Canniang thought she was wild at that time, but since she got married and had a child, she became gentle without knowing it.

"Mother, don't worry too much, it will be fine when you are older."

While talking, Lan Die hurried in.

"Ma'am, something is wrong."

Lan Die's face was full of worry and fear.

Zhao Canniang immediately stood up and asked anxiously, "Tell me slowly what happened."

Lan Die then said cautiously: "It's my uncle, something happened to my uncle."

Hearing about my son-in-law, Zhao Canniang's heart rose.

"Tell me slowly what happened."

Mrs. Chen was afraid that Zhao Canniang might be anxious, so she also yelled at Lan Die: "Calm down, tell me what happened."

"Uncle was beaten just now."

"what!"

Zhao Canniang exclaimed in surprise: "Who hit my brother?"

Lan Die shook her head: "I don't know, I heard from the concierge that it was a message from the Zhao family's servant girl, saying that my uncle was beaten, and my wife didn't know what to do, so I had to call someone to tell you."

Qin is not a person who doesn't know how to measure, she knows that Zhao Canniang is pregnant and will give birth soon, if something serious happened, she definitely wouldn't rush to look for Zhao Canniang.

"Prepare the carriage, let's go and have a look." It was Madam Chen who spoke.

Xian'er heard Lan Die's words, and hurried over: "What happened to Uncle Ganniang?"

Zhao Canniang touched Xian'er's head, and said: "Xian'er, wait at home obediently, if godfather comes back, tell him that we went to uncle's house, this task is entrusted to you, you must do it well .”

Zhao Canniang didn't want to take Xian'er with her, so she came up with this method. Xian'er is very sensitive now, and Zhao Canniang didn't want her long-term efforts to come to naught.

Lan Die had already gone out to prepare the carriage, and Zhao Canniang and Mrs. Chen walked out the door.

Sitting in the carriage, the groom walked slowly.

There is snow on the ground, and it is difficult to walk fast.

Fortunately, I arrived at the Zhao Mansion in a short while.

As soon as I got off the carriage, I saw doctors carrying medicine boxes walking into the yard.

Zhao Canniang's heart rose.

He walked into the yard hand in hand with Mrs. Chen.

The maid immediately led Zhao Canniang and Mrs. Chen to the courtyard where Zhao Qingfeng lived.

Outside the door of Zhao Qingfeng's room, several doctors gathered together to discuss something, Zhao Canniang hurried into the room, but saw Chen holding the child and crying.

Qin's eyes were also red, and Mrs. Ji was still calm. At this time, Mrs. Ji was in charge of the overall situation.

"Chan Niang, you are here."

When Qin walked up to Zhao Canniang, tears were about to fall from her eyes.

"Mother, what happened, tell me slowly."

Zhao Canniang was also very worried, but the window was blocked by the screen, and she couldn't see what was behind the screen.

Qin sighed, and said sadly: "I don't know what happened, but when your brother was sent back covered in blood, your brother suffered a head injury and is still unconscious. I'm worried, So all the doctors in the city were invited.”

When Zhao Canniang heard this, she wanted to go in to have a look, but was stopped by Mrs. Chen: "Let me go in and have a look, you are about to give birth, so you can't see the blood."

After being reminded by Mrs. Chen, Mrs. Qin also thought of this, and hurriedly said: "Mrs. Chen is right, just wait outside, Channiang! I believe your brother will be fine."

Zhao Canniang felt as uncomfortable as a cat scratching.

"Mother, who sent my brother back?"

Calm down a little bit, what Zhao Canniang is thinking about now is to find out who attacked Zhao Qingfeng.

At this time, Mrs. Chen on the side said: "I know the person who brought Qingfeng back. He was the guy who brought the rice shop. I don't know the other one."

After hearing this, Zhao Canniang asked, "Then the two people who sent my brother back have left?"

Mrs. Chen nodded: "Let's go. They said they still have things to do. They were delivering goods and saw my brother lying in the snow covered in blood in the alley, so they sent them back. The two of them had to go back to work and left." gone."

Zhao Canniang didn't hesitate when she heard this, she said to Qin Shi: "Mother, don't worry, brother will be fine, I'll go and ask the two guys who brought my brother back to see if there are any clues. "

Mrs. Qin held Zhao Canniang back: "You better not go about Canniang, leave it to Zhongqiu, you are still pregnant with the child."

Zhao Canniang shook her head when she heard this: "No, mother, if I don't find the murderer, I won't feel at ease. Don't worry, I will protect myself, and I will bring two servants to follow."

After Zhao Canniang finished speaking, she walked out.

Calling two servants from the Chen family to follow, Zhao Canniang went to transport the rice shop.

Yunlai Rice Shop is not far away, crossing two main streets.

The carriage moved slowly, and the two servants followed behind.

In the car, Zhao Canniang kept thinking about who hurt Zhao Qingfeng. Zhao Qingfeng was usually kind and never made any enemies outside. Wouldn't it be thinking of attacking Zhao Qingfeng, or Ke Tianlin? "

Zhao Canniang suddenly thought of Ke Tianlin.

It's no wonder Zhao Canniang thought too much, but their biggest enemy now is Ke Tianlin.

The carriage stopped at this time.

Zhao Canniang got out of the carriage cautiously.

Walking into Yunlai Rice Shop, the shopkeeper came out immediately.

There are not many people who do business in Baiyun County who don't know Zhao Canniang.

"What is Mrs. Chen doing here?"

The shopkeeper usually has a good relationship with the Chen family, and they also take care of each other.

Zhao Canniang said with a smile: "The shopkeeper should know about my brother's affairs!"

The shopkeeper nodded: "The guy just came back and said that I was going to visit Mr. Zhao at the mansion after the meeting is closed. I don't know how Mr. Zhao is doing?"

Zhao Canniang shook her head helplessly: "I haven't woken up yet, I just wanted to ask some details, I wonder if the guy who sent my brother back just now is in the shop?"

Upon hearing this, the shopkeeper hurriedly said, "Young Madam, please come inside, I'll call someone over."

Zhao Canniang nodded gratefully and followed the shopkeeper into the inner hall.

Sitting on the chair, Zhao Canniang waited slowly.

The shopkeeper came in with two young men after a while.

The clothes of the two young men were still stained with blood.

Looking at the shocking red color, Zhao Canniang felt a little uncomfortable.

"Young Madam, I brought it to you. It was the two of them who saw Mr. Zhao and sent Mr. Zhao home."

Zhao Canniang thanked the shopkeeper very gratefully, then looked at the two guys, and said gratefully: "Thank you for today's matter."

The two guys shook their heads hurriedly.

One of them hurriedly said: "Just now the shopkeeper said that the young lady wanted to stop taking the medicine at that time!"

Zhao Canniang nodded: "I want to know what happened at that time. How did you find out about my brother?"

The guy thought for a while and said: "I was asked by the shopkeeper to deliver rice to others. Xiaoshan and I delivered rice back together. When we passed by Tongfu Lane, we saw two men beating Mr. Zhao with sticks. I didn't see who it was, so I thought it would be better to avoid it than one thing more, but I didn't expect to find out that it was Mr. Zhao, so we yelled a few words, and the two men threw down their sticks and fled out into the street. Only then did Mr. Zhao be sent to the Zhao residence."

Zhao Canniang listened carefully to what the buddy said, but she was thinking about this matter in her heart.

"Have you seen the looks of the two men clearly? Or do you remember any special features?"

Zhao Canniang asked suspiciously, wanting to gather a little more clues.

The guy who spoke just now shook his head, but it was the guy named Xiaoshan who said at this time: "I remember that one of the men said a few words when he beat Mr. Zhao, because they were separated by a little distance, and he couldn't hear it intermittently. Clear, but it seems to be saying that Mr. Zhao betrayed his trust and abandoned his master or something."

Xiaoshan said here, and then said: "By the way, I remember that one of the men had a black spot the size of two fingers on his face. At the position of the eyes, when the two of us rushed over, the man looked back. I see it."

After Xiaoshan finished speaking, Zhao Canniang frowned even more.

This matter is not simple, Zhao Canniang was wondering if she had ever seen such a man.

After asking all the questions that should be asked, Zhao Canniang repeatedly confirmed that the two of them did not miss anything, and then Zhao Canniang stood up.

"Thank you shopkeeper, thank you two little brothers."

After leaving the rice shop, Zhao Canniang returned to the Zhao residence.

Walking into the room, Chen Zhongqiu, shopkeeper Zhang and Ji Zhifu all got the news.

Seeing Zhao Canniang enter the room, Chen Zhongqiu breathed a sigh of relief, but then asked, "How's the matter? Did you find anything?"

Zhao Canniang nodded and said what she asked in the rice shop just now.

Chen Zhongqiu listened carefully, but shopkeeper Zhang at the side suddenly said: "There are black spots on the eyes, I seem to know this person."

As soon as these words came out, Zhao Canniang, Chen Zhongqiu and the people in the room all looked at shopkeeper Zhang.

Shopkeeper Zhang looked at Zhao Canniang at this moment and said, "Canniang, do you remember the chef in charge of the Tianxiang Restaurant?"

Reminded by shopkeeper Zhang, Zhao Canniang began to think carefully. After thinking for a while, she really remembered that when she was in Tianxiang Restaurant, there was a chef with a black spot on his eye.

But the age didn't seem to match what the two guys described.

Zhao Canniang looked at shopkeeper Zhang, and then said, "But shopkeeper Zhang, the guy at the rice shop said they were two young men, and the chef in charge must be in his forties now!"

Shopkeeper Zhang smiled: "I haven't finished my words yet. The chef in charge is surnamed Shi, known as Chef Shi. He used to be a very good guy. He worked under me for many years. Later, after your brother bought Tianxiang Restaurant, he also brought him He stayed, and later your brother taught them how to cook, but something happened and your brother fired him."

Zhao Canniang seemed to have thought of something, and asked suspiciously, "Is it because the chef leaked the recipe?"

After Zhao Canniang finished speaking, shopkeeper Zhang nodded: "That's the thing, your brother was very angry at the time, you think it was because you trusted him that you fired him when you bought Tianxiang Restaurant, but later you were dismissed by that Chef Shi bites back, you think your brother must be angry."

Zhao Canniang still didn't understand what shopkeeper Zhang was going to say.
