Jin Tingjiao

Chapter 50 Unexpected Encounter
At that time, only Aunt Pei and Zhenzhu Yuanbei were by the original owner's side, and the rest fled and walked away. It can be seen that these people have been following her all the time.

Since they never left, the original owner must also have great trust in him, so could it be that they did something to steal the money away?
Shen Xi didn't have any evidence to prove yes or no.

But she can think.

If it was Aunt Pei, then when all the family property would be cheated by her, and she was facing such a scheming prostitute, why would she still bring Shen Liang by her side?
With such a large amount of property, wouldn't it be good for her to sell it for cash and go wherever she wants to live?There is no need to keep your identity in front of her.

So Aunt Pei is impossible, and she believes that she does not have this ability either.

Pearl Yuanbei is even more impossible. Since Aunt Pei is not suspicious, and she is not stupid than them, knowing that they have different intentions, it is not difficult to suppress them.

Moreover, although these were private properties of the second family, they disappeared in just a few years, and it was impossible for Shen Ruopu not to ask.If caught, can they survive?

In this way, the whereabouts of the family property became a mystery. So many things, couldn't be blown away by the wind out of thin air, right?
Of course, it is not ruled out that some objects are still in the Minxiangyuan.

After all, it was the Second Household's territory, and when she went to Xing'ergou to observe filial piety, she might not have brought all her belongings with her.

So she had to find out.

Because there are few people living in the Xikua courtyard, it was originally deserted. Now the whole courtyard is bathed in the spring rain, and the surroundings seem to be more and more quiet.

She looked around, and then walked around to the west of the courtyard in the rain, leaned close to the carved window on the wall and looked in, even if the rain powder poured into her neck, she had no time to take care of it.

The yard is still quite attractive, and if you think about it, someone will clean it up regularly.

Just taking advantage of the spring light, a hibiscus grew violently inside the carved window, half of the line of sight was blocked.

She leaned on the window and saw that the carved door leading to the inner courtyard was open, and a few green wormwood grew under the porch.

There is also a two-foot-wide gap in the opened door, so that people can see that the doors and windows inside are all open. In this season, in order to prevent mildew, most of the doors and windows are opened everywhere for ventilation.

But in this way, it also shows that the possibility of valuable objects remaining in the yard is extremely slim.

As for locking it into the big treasury—unless Shen Ruopu intentionally possessed it, he wouldn't do it if the second room's facade couldn't even support it, and the original owner didn't offer to let him take care of it.

In fact, thinking about it again, even if they still have money left, they will not come back to the house to get it after more than a year of embarrassment.

When she came back to take the second room's private property when she was so cash-strapped, how could Shen Ruopu stop her from taking it?

Even the Hu family's dowry that is now locked in the big treasury, she can take it if she wants.It's just that the original owner has ruined such a good property. If he wants to get it back at will, Shen Ruopu will definitely not let go.

The rain wet her forehead hair, sticking it itchyly on her forehead.

She glanced at it, but found that the rain was no longer on the back of her hand, and when she looked up again, she saw an umbrella blocking her head at some point!

She held her breath for a moment and turned around quickly.

The man in front of him was quiet and composed, dressed in white, like a jade sculpture in the spring rain.

Half of his arms were wet, and he didn't know how long he had been standing here.

"Why don't you even open an umbrella?" Lin Pei seemed to have just recovered, raised his lips and smiled, and raised his hand to help her brush her hair, "I turned around and caught a cold again. I caught a cold, but I was yelling that I wouldn't take medicine gone."

He is clearly still a boy of seventeen or eighteen years old, but now he looks like he is very good at taking care of others.

Shen Xi didn't forget the pair of little clay figurines, and he didn't want to get too involved with him, so he avoided his hand and lowered his head slightly.

After they left last time, she naturally found out about his origin from the mouths of the maids.

The eldest son of the upstart Lin family in the capital, a young talent with both civil and military skills.She and Shen Xin were childhood sweethearts, but because of their incompatibility, they didn't become a couple.

It's just that he doesn't understand why, as the guest of the long room, he always meets her, who is irrelevant, unexpectedly.

"Still with that bad temper." He shook his head helplessly.

This expression looks frivolous, but in fact there is no meaning of frivolity, on the contrary, it seems to be pampering.

After he finished speaking, he handed over the umbrella: "If you don't want me to hit it, you can hold it yourself. Just don't get wet."

Shen Xi looked at the umbrella stretched over his head again, his brows became more and more wrinkled.

Last time she was still in the mood to deal with him, but when she met him in this place today, she didn't have that mood anymore.

I don't know how he got here, and based on his relationship with the long house, how high is the probability that he will reveal this to them later?

Although strictly speaking this is not a big deal, isn't it too weird for her to spy on the old house here alone in the rain?
She subconsciously looked over his shoulder to the back.

He actually found out, and with a bit of annoyance, he said with a smile: "Don't look, there is no one."

Shen Xi glanced at him, then cleared his throat facing the weeds in the corner.

Then with his head down, he walked around him and went straight up the steps.

Lin Pei suddenly turned around and looked at her back and said, "I brought you tea. Put it in your yard."

She doesn't care for his tea, so what is she sending it for?Letting Shen Xin know would only cause her trouble.

She continued on her way.

He had no choice but to follow up, and said side by side with her: "The sky will be fine in two days, let's go for a walk!"

Outing?Right now, she is busy with a lot of things, so how can she be in the mood for an outing?
She still ignored it and stepped out of the Moon Cave Gate.

He stopped behind and said, "Ching Ming Festival is coming soon. I heard that the peach and apricot blossoms in Xing'er Valley are blooming well. Maybe you are interested in going to see them!"

Shen Xi stopped abruptly.

Myolie ditch?
Yes!

Now is the Ching Ming season.

Both of her parents died, so she should go to visit the grave during the Ching Ming Festival.

Needless to say, she was in Xing'ergou in previous years, even if she returns home this year, it is appropriate not to visit the grave?

Even if others don't say anything, and Shen Ruopu doesn't say anything, she will feel sorry for herself.

Shen Chongxin and his wife died to save the Helian people, and as a Helian people, through their daughter's body, shed the blood of the Helian people, so that the people they care about can live a healthy and stable life, can feel proud, and Isn't it extremely appropriate to perform the remaining filial piety instead of the original owner?

What's more, she clearly remembered that Aunt Pei had said that Xing'ergou was not far from Qingshi Town——

Qingshi Town...

The guard Shen Chongxin rescued was once hiding in their house in Qingshi Town.

I don't know if he is still here?
The key point is that house - that's what she is wondering now, who is living in that house now?How did Erfang lose such a large fortune from the original owner?

She still has to check it out on the spot. Since the distance is so short, it would be nice if she could stop by and have a look.
