Xu Ling’er once again felt strange, uncle was arrested, aunt heard that cried and fainted several times, not even to the hearth side, how to come to mother here?
After sending Mrs. Wen Zhong out, Xu Ling’er sat on the stool where Mrs. Wen was sitting just now, “Mother, what did aunt come to do?”
The moment Xu Ling’er came in, she made a decision – to confess for Wen Zhong! Even if Wen Zhong will not treat Xu Ling’er like his own daughter in the future, but with the silver and the store, Ling’er will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of her life.
“She heard that Mother was not feeling well and came over to take a look.”
This Xu Ling’er does not believe, uncle was arrested, aunt now to do is to find a way to rescue people, and how will have the heart to care about her mother?
“Ling’er ah ……”
The first thing you need to do is to get your hands on the right one.
After today, she will never see her daughter again, “You have to be good in the future, listen more to your father, do not make him angry. Also, after you marry someone, don’t be as capricious as you are at home, you have to know how to restrain yourself, give in to everything, don’t be too aggressive.”
Hearing her words, Xu Ling’er heart is very uneasy, uncle fell, she no longer has a strong reliance, her and Zheng Qian’s marriage naturally can no longer be, maybe three to five years will not even have a person to say marriage, mother could not not know this.
“Mother, what’s wrong with you?”
Wen shook her head, “Mother is fine, you must remember Mother’s words today, no matter what happens in the future, be good.”
Xu Ling’er still want to ask again, Wen has collected tears lying down, “Mother is still uncomfortable, you go for mother’s wake.”
Said, closed his eyes.
Xu Ling’er suppressed the doubts in her heart, helped her tucked in the corner, got up and left the house.
Seeing the maid, remembering that the maid was guarding the courtyard door when she came back just now, the more suspicion in her heart, after leaving the courtyard, did not go to the spiritual hall, but found a hidden place to hide.
Inside the house, hearing Xu Ling’er’s footsteps disappear, Wen opened her eyes and sat up, “Someone!”
The maid went in.
“Go and bring the master ……”
The words commanded to half, remembering what Mrs. Wen said, the words behind swallowed back, Li An is only an aunt, even if the elder brother is not in, should not he go to see the graveyard, clearly an excuse to branch out Li An.
This is good, to save Li An obstruction, but these silver tickets and house deeds ……
“Go have someone prepare the carriage, I want to go home.”
The maid went out.
Wen got off the bed, put on her mourning clothes, took out the silver tickets and house deeds from the box and put them all on her body, and went out of the door with a determined look, towards the outside of the house.
Xu Ling’er came out of hiding, pursed her lips and looked at her back, hurrying towards the backyard.
Mrs. Wen Zhong’s side also got the news, hearing that she was going home, the minister of household pondered for a moment, did not send anyone to stop, said, “This is supposed to be done, in order to prevent any other problems, Li’er, you follow her over and transfer the store to her.”
……
Xu Ling’er went to the backyard and got on the carriage, instructing the carriage driver to go out through the side door.
Outside, there is no longer a trace of the carriage Wen took, Xu Ling’er heart anxiety is getting heavier and heavier, she is anxious to pick the car curtain to look around to determine where Wen actually went.
She saw Mrs. Wen come out of the house and get into the carriage, and without thinking, Xu Ling’er urged the carriage driver to follow her, and she followed her to the door of their house.
But Mrs. Wen Zhong did not get off the carriage.
Xu Ling’er wondered.
Inside the house, Wen had already put all the silver tickets in the place where she usually kept them, as Ling’er and Li An knew. After putting it away, she tucked the store deed back into her body and came out of the house, ready to go back to the house to find Mrs. Wen to transfer the store to her.
In fact, it was best to transfer it to Ling’er. But if that happens, Ling’er will know about it and will definitely obstruct her. So it can only be transferred to her.
After seeing another carriage parked in front of the door, he froze for a moment and then crossed over to his own carriage and got into this one of Mrs. Wen Zhong, with a calm expression, he ordered, “Let’s go.”
“Little aunt ……”
Mrs. Wen wanted to say something, Wen waved her hand, “I am willing, sister-in-law also need not be upset, I hope that after my death you and big brother can really treat Ling’er as their own.”
“Definitely, we will treat Ling’er better than our son.”
Wen closed her eyes, decided to go to the scapegoat, she was not afraid instead. Sooner or later, people will die, and her death will be enough for the rest of Ling’er’s life, to be safe and sound, to be clothed and fed!
When the two carriages went far away, Xu Ling’er let the driver follow them, saw them go to the court and saw them come out, then Wen’s carriage went on alone and arrived at the gate of the capital.
Wen got off the carriage, sorted out his mourning clothes, looked calm and the doorway of the magistrate said a few words what.
Something flashed in Xu Ling’er’s mind, and she thought nothing of jumping off the carriage to chase after her, but it was a step too late, and Wen had already been escorted in.
“Mother!”
Wen did not hear and did not turn around.
Xu Ling’er was so anxious that tears came out, begging the magistrate to let her in, but the magistrate ignored her with a cold face.
Xu Ling’er turned around and stumbled back to the carriage, climbing up on hands and knees, “Quick, go to the Xu residence.”
The carriage driver did not know what happened, seeing her so panicked, raised the whip, fiercely smacked on the horse.
But in a quarter of an hour, she arrived at the entrance of the Xu Mansion, Xu Ling’er got down and barged in regardless of everything.
The gatekeeper had not been paying attention, she broke in, came back to his senses and hurried to chase, but Xu Ling’er is after all a girl, even if he caught up with him, he did not dare to drag, only to stop in front of, “Miss Ling’er, but please go out!”
“I want to see my great grandfather!”
Song Wan Yue came out from the courtyard, just in time to see this scene, narrowed her eyes, unhurriedly walked forward, “Miss Xu Ling’er, trespassing in someone’s residence will be beaten to death with a stick.”
Dang!
Xu Ling’er knelt down towards her, “I have something important to find great grandfather, please let me see him!”
Xu Ling’er had at least lived in the Xu Mansion for many years, the manners of a lady of the house were still there, but at this moment, she knelt down regardless, it seemed that something really big had happened.
“Great-grandfather is not well, you can’t see him for now, however, you can tell me if there is anything.”
“My mother she may have gone to take the blame for Wen Zhong.”
Song Wan Yue drew a breath backwards, “What’s going on? You tell me slowly.”
……
The capital’s main prison, dim and damp, Wen Zhonggang had just been tortured and was thrown on the floor like a rag.
He held himself up and opened his eyes to look at the roof. He would never admit his guilt, someone would definitely come to save him!
Clap!
The door of the cell was opened again, and the head of the cell walked in with a much better attitude than just now, “Lord Wen, someone has come to take the blame for you.”
