Liangyue Farm Gate

Chapter 450 Inquiry
Guan Wen and Guan Wu rushed to He's house without stopping.

Li Xin was afraid of being alone at the old juncture, and would feel uncomfortable just thinking about it, so he asked Amei to accompany him, and then let Yang'er and Xiaokang be on the side to make fun of it, diverting his attention from the old juncture.

She went to the attic on the second floor, wrote a letter, took the envelope, sealed it, and put it on top. When Guan Wen came back, she asked him to find someone to send it to Heji Noodle Restaurant opened by Ahe and Luo Qiang in Pingsha County. go.

Xing'er held her waist and walked around under the eaves. When she saw Li Xin coming down, she rushed up to meet her and asked, "Go to the town and tell the girls when..."

Li Xin paused, and said: "Wait for Ah Wen and the others to come back first, and see what Uncle He has to say."

"That's it...why wait?"

Li Xin nodded and said, "I can only wait. I don't know what Uncle He's opinion is."

Xing'er was a little worried: "Sister-in-law, do you think Uncle He will disagree?" Xing'er frowned slightly: "Original father-in-law and Uncle He are of the same age, and they have known each other since they were young, so the relationship may not be very close. Okay, but at any rate, we have known each other for decades. No matter how ridiculous the father-in-law wants to remove him from the family tree, He Boxing might not agree. Putting himself in the same place, if he is also kicked out of the house by his own son at the same age, Thinking about the situation... Maybe Uncle He will think on the side of father-in-law."

Li Xin's face was slightly gloomy, and he didn't answer.

"How about I talk to Yinhuan?" Myolie looked at Li Xin and said, "Uncle He has always liked Yinhuan, his daughter-in-law..."

Li Xin shook his head: "This is a big matter that concerns the heads of the village. Ah Wen went to He Bo to talk about this matter, which has already made it difficult for He Bo. Why ask Yinhuan to let her intervene? This is a bit more troublesome. , it's better not to drag Yinhuan into this muddy water."

Xing'er sighed, how could she not know that this matter is not easy to deal with?But all the elder brothers and sisters-in-law came forward to do things, if she and Guan Wu did nothing, they would always feel ashamed in their hearts.

Li Xin looked at Xing'er and said, "You're pregnant, so don't worry too much, just relax. Ah Wen and his brothers know what to do about other things, and if it doesn't work, I, Axiu and Amei will support you." , you can take care of your baby with peace of mind."

Xing'er rubbed her stomach with a worried expression: "Sister-in-law, do you think this time, can you just draw a line with father-in-law?"

"I don't know about that." Li Xin lowered his head: "Do as much as you can, it's good to make a fuss."

If everyone in the village knows that Guan Wen wants to break off the father-son relationship with Guan Ming, and what Guan Ming has done, even if they can't completely cut off contact with Guan Ming as she wished, at least let everyone know that Guan Ming face.Even if Guan Ming comes back one day, if he starts to act like a moth again, he will be cast aside by the whole village. At that time, Guan Wen will ignore him, and there will be fewer voices criticizing Guan Wen.

Anyway, she made up her mind and never had anything to do with Guan Ming, her father-in-law.

With the help of Feng Defa, Li Xin cleaned the big vat, mixed it with salt water, and together with Xing'er, wrapped the wilted cowpeas together, put them in, and tossed them together with the previous pickled ginger, pickled sea pepper, and soaked garlic. go in.Then I peeled the heads of cabbage left over from yesterday, cut them into long lumps, washed them and put them away.Then there are carrots, all of which are in the tank.After covering the jar with the pottery head, Feng Defa helped Li Xin put the jar in a corner of the kitchen.

Li Xin has always kept the kitchen clean, ventilated and bright. The kitchen in the new house is not as dark and greasy as those in other homes.Because she often cleans and has good lighting, it is as bright as the main room.

After finishing the work, Li Xin made a special trip to the stone field. She didn't dare to approach the beehive, so she went around the beehive and went into the cave.

Now Feng Defa is no longer resting on the rocky ground, there is a wooden shed at the foot of the mountain wall, it is shaded there, but you can set up two tables underneath for drinking tea or something.

Li Xin smiled, and went straight to the cave to pick some mushrooms on the rotten wood, put them in a basket, and wanted to eat some mushroom soup tonight to clear the intestines.

After returning home, Amei took over the work in her hands and went to work. Yang'er and Xiaokang were with her at the old juncture, and there was a smile on her face.

Xing'er was making small clothes, but her face was still full of sorrow, she looked towards the Pokou and Xiaojingkou from time to time, presumably waiting for Guan Wu and the others to come back.

However, they didn't wait for Guan Wu and the others. Unexpectedly, Bai Hui came to the door.

Bai Hui came alone, and her purpose was very simple. When she found Li Xin, she asked directly about what happened just this morning.

Li Xin was a little surprised, "How could it spread so quickly?"

"Those old tricksters who gambled with your father-in-law yelled it out. Hongyan heard it and asked me to ask you. It happened that someone from Uncle He came to him and asked him to discuss something." Bai Bai Hui frowned: "Those old slickers said that your family's wealth is very solid, and they took out more than 100 taels of silver easily, saying that your family is not worse than Sun's family." After waving his hands, Bai Hui said : "That's all for nothing, let me ask you, where are your father-in-law and the others?"

Li Xin pursed her lips, and dragged Bai Hui to the bamboo forest, afraid of overhearing her talking in the yard.

"The people are gone. The old house is empty. Now Ah Wen and his second brother have gone to find Uncle He. I'm afraid your big brother Sun will also take care of him. Uncle He may ask him to tell him what to do." Just to discuss this matter." Li Xin said bluntly.

Bai Hui was very surprised: "What are they looking for with Uncle He? What are they discussing?"

Li Xin explained: "Grandpa agreed to expel Ah Wen's father from the Guan family, so Ah Wen went to find Uncle He and your elder brother Sun. Only the village chief opened the ancestral hall and notified the matter to everyone in the village. Every family, be a witness, announce that Ah Wen’s father will be issued a genealogy, and then go to the yamen to file a case and file a document, which is considered to have expelled Ah Wen’s father from the house.”

The more Bai Hui heard it, the more surprised she became: "This, this should not be criticized by others if it is spread, saying that you are in charge..."

Li Xin nodded, sighed and said: "But there is no way, think about it, more than 100 taels of silver, if you say it, you will give it away, and Ah Wen's father didn't even give an explanation. It's really impossible to treat our family as a bank." He doesn’t know how to hide there to spend the money at the moment, if he tastes the sweetness and knows that we have paid back the money, it’s one thing and two things, it’s hard to guarantee that he won’t come back and borrow the money again Then let us pay it back. We pay him back for his kindness, and there is absolutely no reason to throw such a large sum of money for the second time."

Bai Hui is not a dead-headed person, so she naturally knows that what Li Xin said is correct.No matter how much money you have, you can't help being a father like this, right?
Bai Hui asked, "Then where is your father-in-law right now?"

"No one knows." Li Xin spread his hands and said, "I went to the old house to look for it, but I didn't see anyone. The door was closed, and it looked like there was someone in the house. The door was from the courtyard. The bolt is inserted, and there is no lock outside, who would know that there is no one at home?"

Bai Hui opened her mouth: "Isn't your little sixth uncle going to take the Juren examination? At this time, what is your father-in-law trying to do by doing this?"

Li Xin moved her lips, but didn't know what to say.

This matter is too complicated, she is [-]% sure that Guan Zhicheng and Guan Ming took the money and ran away, but can this matter be said?Not to mention that two big families in Shen'an were also involved.

So Li Xin could only shake his head and sighed: "Who knows what he thinks, Ah Wen is also very angry. Such a hot day..."

Li Xin touched his forehead, but also had a headache.

Bai Hui hurriedly took her hand and said, "Okay, okay, things happen when you don't want them to happen, don't think too much about them. Since you are the head of the family, you have gone to Uncle He, I think Uncle He will think carefully about it." Consider it. I also know something about your family, but your father-in-law did too much in the past. It is true that he was not sympathetic in the first place. "

Bai Hui comforted Li Xin and said, "I don't know what Uncle He thinks, but if you really want to ask Hongyan's opinion, I can tell him for you."

Li Xin smiled and said, "Then thank you for blowing the pillow air for us."

"You're welcome." Bai Hui waved her hand, blinked and said with a smile, "Whether it's an assistant or a relative, I'm on your side."

As she spoke, Bai Hui looked at the sun and said, "Okay, let's stop here. I'll ask about the situation when Hongyan comes back. Don't worry too much, relax, things have to be done step by step. "

Li Xin nodded, and walked back side by side with Bai Hui, and said goodbye to Bai Hui only when they reached Pokou.

Xing'er came up to meet her and asked, "What did Miss Bai say?"

Li Xin sighed, and said: "She promised to help Sun Hongyan talk about it."

"It's good." Xing'er said, "It's good to have someone to help you talk."

Li Xin also nodded, but his face was still a little melancholy: "If this happens, I'm afraid the whole village will really know about it. Guan Wen's father will also lose face."

Xing'er was silent for a while before she said: "The people from the casino came in a big way, and they must have aroused everyone's suspicion early in the morning. In addition, they also found a few gamblers from father-in-law to witness, they also know that big brother and sister-in-law you The money was paid back on the spot. It is impossible not to make a big fuss about this matter."

Xing'er raised her head and said, "If the ancestral hall is opened again, everyone will know about it."

Li Xin made a bitter face: "I never wanted to show off."

"It's not very popular, maybe everyone will say something nasty." Xing'er sighed: "But the Qian family and the Luo family must be helping us here. After all, my mother's family and my uncle's family are here. Lotus Village still has some status."

"Yes, I have been a scholar."

Li Xin looked at Xing'er and smiled, then sighed again: "If we really open the ancestral hall, I'm also afraid that people who have always been at odds with us will raise an argument with us and firmly disagree..."

Xing'er was stunned: "Sister-in-law means...the Sun family?"

"There's also the Hou family." Li Xin was silent for a moment: "These two families can be regarded as big families in the village."

Xing'er stretched out her hand and patted Li Xin's shoulder: "One step counts as one step. Besides, the Sun and Hou families are not many people who can stand on the stage."

Li Xin nodded slightly.
