Crossing the road to riches

Chapter 54
The family members all sat in the lobby with solemn faces. First, Mrs. Zhao couldn't hold back: "No! I'll talk to Jinmei carefully. Since Haoer said that this person is not good, I absolutely disagree."

He looked at Fufu again and pulled Fufu over: "Fufu, you also go into my sister's room with me and persuade her."

Before being taken away, Fufu didn't know what to do, so he looked at his wife.

Wen Hao let Fufu go with him. It would be best if the second brother could change his mind. If she insisted on going her own way, she would choose to respect it.

Mrs. Zhao gave Fufu a look when he entered the room, and Fufu followed his father-in-law's gaze and sat on the other side of Jinmei. Jinmei's eye sockets were red and swollen, obviously she couldn't accept this fact.

He opened his mouth first: "Father Sanniang is not like that, Sanniang treats me very well, she is definitely not the kind of person you said."

Mrs. Zhao patted the back of Jinmei's hand with hatred: "Why are you so disobedient, my sister said that he is not good, and it looks like he is addicted to gambling. If you marry him in the future, you will be wronged." What to do, look at how much those gambling women sell their husbands."

Fufu on the side also gently persuaded, but not as directly as Zhao, because he could understand why the second brother was so sad: "Second brother, in fact, you don't have to rush to get married, everyone is worried about your future. Not good, how about we wait a little longer and take a closer look."

But Jinmei refused, and ran out with a shake of her hand: "I don't believe that Sanniang is such a person, I'll go and ask, if it's what you said, I won't marry, but if It's not that I have to get married, but if you insist on stopping me, father, just pretend you didn't have a son like me, anyway, I'm still a burden in this family."

Jinmei wiped her tears and ran out, and ran into Sanniang's shop, but the shop was not open, and Jinmei couldn't find this person after asking around.

I felt a little uneasy in my heart, maybe I really lied to myself, and then ran to the bridge where the two often met, and happened to meet Sanniang before halfway through the road.

Hong Sanniang didn't expect Jinmei to come looking for her so soon, but judging by the weeping look, he probably didn't handle the family well, and it seems that she needs to add fuel to the fire.

Came out from the dark and stopped Jinmei, with a distressed look on her face: "What's wrong with Jinmei, looking for me so sadly, is it because your family disagrees with us?"

Seeing Sanniang's tears falling down uncontrollably, Jinmei bit her mouth and said, "Sanniang, I have something to ask you, don't lie to me."

Sanniang supported Jinmei's shoulder: "If you ask, I will tell the truth."

Jinmei stared at Sanniang's eyes: "Did Sanniang deceive me?"

Sanniang frowned, pointing her three fingers at her temples to swear: "If I deceive you, it will be struck by lightning."

She is the man she knows believes in this most.

Jinmei shed more tears: "But I went to the shop to look for you, why did I say that no one knows your name."

Sanniang's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that Wen Hao found out after investigating behind her back, but she immediately responded: "You tell others that Sanniang knows very few people. This is my nickname, and I am very close. That’s what I call it. My name is a bit ugly. Since you asked me today, I’ll tell you. My name is Hong Shi. I’ve always felt that this name sounds stupid and unattractive. I’m afraid you might dislike it. I didn’t tell you, and I definitely didn’t mean to deceive.”

Jinmei looked at Sanniang's sincere look, and the questions in her heart were really hard to say. Sanniang didn't seem to be able to lie to herself.

Seeing that Jinmei was still skeptical about her, Hong Sanniang gave it all up, and pretended to be angry: "Jinmei, you have heard what other people said is bad for me, so you doubt me. Is my sincerity to you don't you know at all?" Can't you see, I'm so disappointed in you, if I die today, will you believe me?"

After finishing speaking, he wanted to jump into the river, but Jinmei quickly grabbed him: "Sanniang, I didn't mean that, it's just that my father is worried about me."

Sanniang was extremely disappointed: "Why don't you believe me? Does your family really treat you well? Have they ever thought about the pressure you will face at such an old age? Maybe it's just I thought I couldn’t get a good dowry, so I kept you at home as a tool to make money, otherwise why didn’t I marry you off.”

Jinmei wanted to say something because she was ugly, but he really couldn't say it.

Sometimes he really thought about his parents that way, all the money he earned for this family was taken away by his father, and all of it was used to educate his younger sister, and what was left at home forever was his own, He has always felt very unfair.

Now that he has a good place to go, and his family obstructs him in every possible way, he is also very sad and angry. Seeing that Sanniang almost jumped into the river because of him just now, he trusts Sanniang even more in his heart.

He didn't want to live in a family that looked down on him all his life, and asked Sanniang with firm eyes: "Will you really treat me well all your life?"

Sanniang nodded without hesitation: "Yes."

"Okay! Sanniang, I don't want any kind of matchmaker or six hires. You will come to this bridge to pick me up in three days, and I will go home with you. From then on, you will be my wife and head."

Tears glistened in Hong Sanniang's eyes: "Sanniang is lucky to have such a husband in this life."

After Jinmei returned home, she locked herself in the house.The next day he came out of the house again, as if it was the same as before, and he didn't mention Sanniang's matter anymore. The family thought he had figured it out, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

In the afternoon, when Xiao Feng and Xiao Feng were playing backgammon and chatting, suddenly a young servant came to report in a hurry: "Ma'am, someone is calling for you outside the door and said it is urgent."

Wen Hao didn't say anything, Xiao Feng was unhappy, she admitted that she was very embarrassed at Go, but why did she lose [-] games in a row in such an easy backgammon, but she was not defeated, she had the momentum of becoming more and more courageous when she was so frustrated. An interruption spoils the fun.

Wen Hao smiled and waved to the person who was seriously copying the copybook. Fufu was concentrating on practicing. Lin Wanfeng pushed Fufu calmly, then put down the brush in his hand and walked over.

"What did the wife call me?"

Wen Hao kissed Fufu's forehead without hesitation, and Xiao Feng and her servant Xiao Wu blocked their eyes with scissors hands and issued a warm reminder: "Hey! Why is this a public place?"

Wen Hao ignored it and just pinched the little husband's increasingly round face: "The wife has some things to do, you can play with sister Xiao and see if she can regain some confidence in her husband, after practicing for so long You can also relax when the word is over."

Fufu is shy, there are so many people in this study, how can the wife-master do this kind of thing to himself, and let others see the joke, but the complaints belong to the complaining, but he happily agreed: "The wife-master, go get busy, I'll do it!" Accompany Sister Xiao."

Even though Wan Feng was reading a book, from the corner of his eye, he could see all the sweet interaction between the two of them, which is really enviable. If only she was the wife that father had fancyed for him back then.

As soon as this idea came out, Lin Wanfeng was startled, and stood up suddenly, how could he have such an idea.

This somewhat weird behavior caught the eyes of Fu Fu and Xiao Feng.

"Wan Feng, what's wrong with you?"

Only then did he realize that he was very strange, and felt guilty when he saw Fufu worried about him: "It's nothing, I'm tired of sitting and go for a walk."

Xiao Feng is also very curious about this man, most of the time his face is expressionless, even facing such a super invincible, beautiful and rich young woman who has no intention of flirting with her, she finds it even more strange.

Although there are not many people in Sister Wen's mansion, everyone is very enthusiastic about her. Only this one ignores her when passing by.

But she took it as another man's unique way of attracting her, but she just didn't take the bait.

There is no way to try to trick her, she has seen many of these tricks from her mother's servants.

With a big wave of his hand: "Come on brother-in-law, let's leave him alone and play with me."

When Wen Hao came to the door, she was familiar with the boy, wasn't he from Wen Rong?

The boy handed the letter to Wen Hao, who was so anxious that he couldn't speak easily: "Mrs. Wen, it's not good, my master has been arrested by the government and put in jail. You should find a way to save her. She asked me to give it to you." letter".

Wen Hao asked about the situation, but the young man couldn't say anything, so he asked people to go back to the tooth shop.

But the young servant knelt down directly: "Madam, the tooth shop has been sealed, and I have no place to go, please take me in for a while."

It's okay to take him in, but it's not free. Wen Hao unceremoniously threw him into the teahouse to entertain guests, but this young man finally had a place to stay, so he didn't complain.

After the boy left, Wen Hao went back to the room and opened the letter. This Wen Rong wrote letters all bluffing: "Well, my dear~ I was tricked by that damned opponent, and I was suppressed." I was beaten up in the prison in the county seat. You don’t know what it’s like in the prison. I don’t even have a full meal every day, there are rats infested, I don’t even have to take a bath, I can rub mud on my body , you hurry to get me, otherwise I will leave you early again, woo woo woo~ You can’t leave me alone, the cell is dark, small and scary, and there are bad guys bullying me~ woo woo woo~" .

Wen Hao has reminded her about this a long time ago. If there is no strong backer behind this kind of thing, no matter how good the luck is, it will be easy for the wind to blow. It is really unexpected and reasonable. the result of.

It's just that I didn't expect that it would be me who wiped my ass in the end, and I was just a businessman taking something for money.

Wen Hao glanced at the study room, wondering if it could be done, but whether others would like it is another matter, but Wen Rong can't be left alone and let her be locked up in prison for three to five years.

Xiao Feng didn't expect that he was so witty, since he couldn't even beat the man in front of him, seeing that Fu was about to join the five sons again, Xiao Feng immediately shouted to stop: "Don't, don't, I don't count if I made a mistake last time."

Actually playing tricks in front of Fufu, Fufu's head was full of black dots but he could only smile and take back the chess pieces. Xiao Feng moved to another place, but Fufu connected in another place.

Xiao Feng looked at Fufu and swallowed his saliva: "I have a heartless person, please do not know if I can agree."

This is the wife-owner's distinguished guest, as long as it is a reasonable request, Fufu will naturally respond to it: "Sister Xiao, but it's okay to say."

Xiao Wu had to admit that his young lady was really thick-skinned: "I don't know if my brother-in-law can let me lay another child."

After finishing speaking, the room fell into silence, Da Shan only looked at the Lord and won and laughed happily, Bao Zi looked at Miss Xiao in disbelief, and Fu Fu was also stunned.

Maybe Xiao Feng felt a little embarrassed when he didn't get an answer for a while: "Hahahahahaha, I'm joking, I'm joking, don't take it seriously, don't take it seriously".

Wen Hao took the letter directly and came into the study room. Xiao Feng is a straightforward person, since the two of them treat each other sincerely, there is no need to go round and round.

She came in just at the right time, breaking the embarrassment in the room.

"Sister Xiao, there is something my sister wants you to help me see if there is any way."

Xiao Feng casually shook the chessboard with his sleeve as if seeing a savior, and walked to Wen Hao's side as if nothing had happened: "Sister, just tell me if you have anything to do."

Fufu didn't care about it when he saw it, he just covered his mouth and smiled, and silently put away the chessboard. I'm afraid it's better not to play chess today.

Wen Hao first showed the letter to Xiao Feng, Xiao Feng frowned and his face was a little displeased, Wen Hao thought it was unwilling, and planned to make Wen Rong suffer for a few years.

It's just that I didn't expect the sour taste in the words I said: "What kind of sister is this, but she is the biological one or sworn sister? How is it worth your effort to find someone?"

Why did she get goosebumps when she heard this: "She was my playmate since I was a child, and she lent me a lot of money when I was poor. If it is inconvenient for Sister Xiao, forget it."

Wen Rong sneezed in the prison. I don't know who missed her. She never lent money to Wen Hao. She snatched it all. She was forced to borrow money.

Xiao Feng stared: "It's convenient, what's the inconvenience, let's go tomorrow, it's just a matter of my words, and it's not a serious matter, the government dare not let him go, if the people above check the government If you do something wrong, the leader will be dismissed, but I want to see what kind of sister it is, and let me know her."

It looks like the family member is going out to meet the mistress.

Wen Hao personally made a cup of tea for Xiao Feng. It was said so easily. It seems that her background is bigger than what I imagined. Even the county lord doesn't pay attention to her at all. I'm afraid it's someone from the imperial city. figure.

"Then thank you sister Xiao, my sister will pour tea for you in person."

Xiao Feng also regained a little face in this respect, he has to say that his old lady's name outside is quite useful, and when the time comes, just put his old lady's name there and the matter will be resolved.

Wen Hao originally thought that Wen Rong was living a dark and miserable life in the cell, but he didn't expect that she was not only living well, but also living happily.

An independent single room, with good food and wine, accompanied by a handsome man, someone fanned the room while sleeping, and incense was lit in the four corners.

When Wen Hao and Xiao Feng arrived at the door of the cell, Xiao Feng suspected that Wen Hao was making fun of himself: "This is the first time I've seen someone who can do so comfortably in prison."

Wen Hao nodded, her worries were really unnecessary.

Seeing someone coming, Wen Rong pretended to be the host and greeted warmly: "Oh, my dear baby is here, come and have a seat, I'll break off the biggest duck leg for you."

But when they met Xiao Feng's gaze, the situation changed suddenly, and the questioning words of the two blurted out at the same time: "You two have a difficult relationship, right?"
