A flower of the Republic of China

Chapter 11

1,

The news that Pei Yun was brought back has been deliberately blocked, except for a few cronies of the head of Liu's family, Zhong Han, and Wen Qingyun, no one else knew about it.Now that Wen Yuzhu's matter came to an end, Gang Leader Liu freed up his hands to deal with Du Wenjing. Du Wenjing knew better than anyone that his daughter's death could not be done in vain.The next day, the head of the Liu Gang issued a hunt and kill order, and the disciples of the Qing Gang rushed out to arrest Du Wenjing.It was also Du Wenjing's luck that he was not at home or in the shop when the incident happened, so he escaped unharmed.

He couldn't go back home, and the members of the Qinggang guarded where he might appear, waiting for him to slip into the trap he had dug.In desperation, Du Wenjing took out his youthful wandering ability, disguised himself as an old country man who cut firewood, and mixed with the common people to the farming and animal husbandry company on the edge of the city.This is Shen Yunpei's territory, no matter how presumptuous the Green Gang is, they dare not mess around.

In the small account room of Kenmu Company, the candlelight is like beans, swinging from side to side.Du Wenjing lost his arrogance, his facial features were twisted together, and he was wretched and pitiful. One couldn't help but wonder if the person who forced the eldest grandma of the Shen family to kneel on the street before was the same person in front of him.

"Brother Jing'an, you must help me this time. You can't just watch me being beaten to death, can you?"

Yang Jing was confused, "How did you say that, Brother Wen Jing, who are you offending?"

Du Wenjing said with a bitter face: "Who is offended? This girl Peiyun said everything! Not only did Chief Liu believe her words, but he also recognized her as his goddaughter. She is so good, she made it to the sky in one step, and I let her be killed! Brother, help me once, just once, give me a way to go, I know that Maoyong has a boat every night, let me get on the boat, I will remember your great kindness!"

Yang Jing'an frowned, paced back and forth, and paused for a while before saying, "I'm afraid this is inappropriate. You also know that Mao Yong is now our young master and grandma. If I let them know, I can't explain it. What's more, you Just now with our young mistress... No, no, absolutely not."

Du Wenjing knew that Yang Jing'an was blackmailing Qiao, so he held his breath, calmed down, his face recovered a little color, and said with a sneer, "It's more inappropriate than they know you use Maoyong to transport opium? Yang Jing'an, don't you Forget, you still have a handle in my hands, at worst, we will all die together!"

Speaking of this, Yang Jing'an has no last sympathy for Du Wenjing. Since he likes to hold his ground so much, let him take this secret to meet the King of Hades together!But there were good words in his mouth, "Brother Wen Jing, look, I was just joking. We have been friends for many years anyway, and I will help you. When do you plan to leave?"

Du Wenjing was not in the mood to chat with him, and replied very quickly, "The sooner the better. Tonight is best."

"Okay, there is a boat going to the west tonight, I'll go back and arrange it for you, and I'll send a car to pick you up in the evening."

After sending Yang Jingan away, Du Wenjing heaved a sigh of relief.Thinking that he had worked hard and calculated all his life, and finally lost in the hands of a woman, he felt unwilling.When he came back, he thought he might be back soon, because Chief Liu was too old and would not live long, so he would definitely find Wen Qingyun to settle all accounts!It's a pity that after this night, he didn't have another chance.Yang Jing'an would not leave such a disaster behind, so he notified the Green Gang of the news.

That night, in a small boat docked at the Qiangwei River Wharf, Du Wenjing looked at the dotted night lights of Haizhou City, at the quiet flowing river below him, and at the night sky so dark that there was no starlight and moonlight, expressing his life. The last time he sighed, "If I knew today, why bother." What he said may have been when he entered the Green Gang, or when he killed the rich hall master, or more recently, when he carried the coffin to the door of Shen's house to make trouble When it was time, or when the second aunt was being forced to death, which one he was referring to, only he himself knew.

Later, according to the boatman, when those men in black ran to the boat, Du Wenjing still had a chance to jump into the river to escape, but he did not sit like this. When the men in black slashed down with the long knife, a strange smile appeared on his face. As if glad it was all over.

Almost at the same moment, Yang Jing'an pushed away the girl who was snuggling up to him, and told Jiu Lianhuan that it was enough to serve Zhang Mozhi well, and he wanted to drink a glass of wine alone.Jiu Lianhuan took the man away, and looked back to see Yang Jing'an spilling wine on the ground.This is his farewell to the old man.

No one has his handle anymore, and he no longer needs to be controlled by others. In the future, Haizhou City will definitely become his world.Yang Jing'an poured himself a cup slowly, tasting the sweet taste, and smiled happily.

Jiu Lianhuan returned to her room, and suddenly sighed. Just this afternoon, Ruyan was kicked out by Chen Zongyong's wife. This girl was quite clever, knowing that she couldn't show her face, so she found her quietly, knelt on the ground and kowtowed. He slammed his head three times, and for the first time willingly called his mother.Mom, you have to save me!Jiu Lianhuan softened her heart, took a sum of money, and told her to run for her life before the city gate was closed.

When Du Wenjing's body floated up the Qiangwei River, everyone in Haizhou City came to see it.Wen Qingyun saw it from the window of the accountant's room on the second floor of Maoyong.She had an indescribable feeling in her heart, thinking that he would be killed by the Green Gang, and there were also her reasons. If she hadn't sent Peiyun to Liu's house, Du Wenjing's conspiracy hadn't been exposed, and he should still be in Fuxing now Sitting, still smoking his pipe and drinking his old lady.She knew the result earlier, so she still sent Peiyun, perhaps because she wanted him to die.When he died, there were only advantages and no disadvantages for her. At least in the future, no one would remember the shame of her kneeling in the street, only the ugly appearance of his floating corpse in the water.She would also like to thank Yang Jing'an, in fact, even if Yang Jing'an didn't report the news, she would.Wen Qingyun suddenly smiled. From now on, the only thing she had to guard against was Yang Jing'an. Qiao Funian's death, those clouds and earth that disappeared without a trace, and the arrested Wenyu Bamboo were all related to him.She wrote it down for him, and then counted slowly.

Wen Yuntang's March [-]th day is coming soon, Wen Qingyun settled Qingzhu well, and there is one thing left on her mind, she promised Zhong Han, although she didn't know what Zhong Han would ask, but she was ready Yes, no matter what it is, as long as he asks, she will agree.It's a pity that Zhong Han didn't come, so he sent Mancang to Maoyong to deliver a letter to her. The letter said that he remembered the agreement between them, but he hadn't figured out what he wanted her to do, so remember, you owe me once, and I will pay you back in the future. I will ask you to pay it back.

Wen Qingyun breathed a sigh of relief, what she was worried about did not happen, and it was a good thing that she was let go.She put away the letter, called Mancang to him, and asked him to tell Zhong Han, "Go back and tell the boss, I'll be there anytime."

After saying this, she had nothing to worry about, and turned her head and rushed into the deep and unfamiliar courtyard of the Shen family.

Hearing that the well-meaning young mistress is coming back, Dongmei's heart is completely chilled. After she had a fling with Shen Xiaoru last time, Shen Xiaoru hid her like a ghost. Half of her heart has been chilled, and now even the other half is cold. No more hope.But she just couldn't be reconciled, so why did she end up in such an unclear end after putting all her effort into it?Even if you go all out and make a fuss, it's better than being dumb and guilty and unable to tell!After thinking it over, she dragged Yang Jing'an from the corridor to the garden. It was dinner time, everyone was in a hurry, and no one was wandering in the garden.Yang Jing'an is old and cunning, of course he knows what Dongmei is doing, he looks at her with a half-smile, and snorts from time to time.

Dongmei didn't care about being reserved at the moment, since he brought her to this road, he couldn't just stand aside and watch the fun, "Uncle, what should I do?"

"You can realize your dreams by yourself, don't ask me all the time."

"At the beginning, you said you would help me, but now I have given away my body, but he just ignores me. If you don't care about me, I will have no choice but to die!"

Yang Jing'an snorted coldly, "Look at your worthless appearance, you want to die so much, go die in front of the young master, and see if he doesn't care about you."

Dongmei was stunned, "You mean..."

"Come on, make it big. Anyway, the Shen family is already in chaos, so you're not bad!"

"What if Madam gets angry and kicks me out?"

"She doesn't want you, and she doesn't want the flesh and blood of the Shen family?"

"But I didn't..."

"Who knows if you don't tell me? What's more, if you don't have it now, it may not be there in the future. It's not a lie."

So far, Dongmei couldn't allow Dongmei to think too much. Since she made this bet, she had no choice but to keep betting until the day she won.

3,

Wen Qingyun felt that everyone's attitude towards her was different this time.I used to respect and respect her identity, but now I feel a little more fear.Even Qin Ma, who always regarded herself as a half master, lowered her head far away when she saw her, and when she raised it again, there was a flattering smile on her face.

Xuelian quietly told her that everyone was spreading the friendship between her and the bandit leader Zhong Han, saying that Zhong Han was willing to rob the execution ground for her. Wen Qingyun stared, "What nonsense are you talking about? Who went to rob the execution ground?"

Xue Lian shivered in fright, "I also heard what they said."

Wen Qingyun gritted her teeth and smiled, "Okay, then go out and tell them, if you dare to let me hear about the tribulation field, I will definitely not be able to get around him."

On the contrary, Mrs. Shen, who was always sneering, didn't make things too difficult this time. Seeing Wen Qingyun come to say hello, she kept twisting the beads in her hand, looking at the ground, but said, "It's been hard work, go back and rest early." It was also Shen Yunpei's order. In the first two days, Shen Yunpei sent another letter asking Mrs. Shen not to ask questions, let alone embarrass her.The matter has already happened, and since the government will not pursue it, he still hopes that his family and everything will prosper.

Shen Xiaofang was the first to go to the west courtyard to see his sister-in-law, and what happened before was full of enviable legends in his opinion.The young man who was wronged and wronged, the hero of the rivers and lakes who acted chivalrously and righteously, and a strange woman who strategized, made people's blood boil.He wished he could be one of the characters, even if it was an insignificant little guy, as long as he could see it with his own eyes.

Wen Qingyun couldn't laugh or cry at these words, "Third brother, what are you thinking in your head? You are talking nonsense. If Dad finds out, I won't punish you."

Shen Xiaofang leaned carelessly against the cabinet, raised his brows and said: "He won't. He is only concerned about his own career now, and he doesn't bother to care about me. By the way, I heard from them that Dad ordered me to come back later. If you want to pay more attention, if you want to use silver, as long as the amount is not too big, you can go to the cashier to get it, and you don’t need to ask anyone. I think Dad is embarrassed, he was so heartless before. This is fine, even if he finds out that he lost it in the future Brush wash, don’t feel bad about blaming me.”

When Wen Qingyun heard this, she felt a chill in her heart. Shen Yunpei made such an arrangement for the sake of the Shen family's business.He knew who Shen Xiaoru was, and he didn't want Yang Jingan to monopolize the power, so he could only use her.Originally, she also planned to start a career in the Shen family, but when Shen Yunpei said this first, she felt uncomfortable, as if she was being used by someone.Seeing her silence, Shen Xiaofang thought she was tired, and ran out after saying hello.Sitting alone in the room, Wen Qingyun still felt a lump.I had no choice but to turn around to comfort myself. Face is important, comfort is important, or power is important?Thinking about the hardships these days, when she was begging for help and bumped into walls, when she endured Chen Zongyong's dirty face, when she knelt on the street, if she was the head of the Shen family, would they treat her like this?Do they dare?So without Shen Yunpei saying much, she will also work hard to help the Shen family and find herself a position that no one else can shake.She has to prepare for the future, find a way to take Wenyuzhu down the mountain, find a good family for Wenqingzhu, and let them live a good life. All these can only be realized with power and power.

Wen Qingyun was still immersed in her own thoughts, Xuelian ran in like she was on fire, and shouted out of breath, "Miss, go and have a look quickly, something serious happened!"

Wen Qingyun raised her heart to her throat, followed Xue Lian and staggered all the way to the main room, saw Shen Xiaoru and Dongmei kneeling at the door, and Madam Shen scolded in a changed tone: "You shameless things! , The reputation of the Shen family has been ruined by you. What crime did I do to make me suffer like this? I don't care, I can't control it anymore, come and tie them to the ancestral hall for me , let the elders of the clan down..."

Yang Jing'an was also inside, and his voice was as steady as ever, persuading: "Ma'am, don't be angry, you will lose your body when you are angry. In fact, it's not a big deal, which big family can avoid it? Besides, Dongmei is already pregnant, really. Hand it over to the ancestral hall, one corpse and two lives, madam, how can you bear it?"

People from the Shen family stood all over the yard, looking at each other in blank dismay, they were surprised that the elder brother had one woman and it wasn't annoying enough, so he wanted to find a second one, it was a bit greedy.Qin's mother curled her lips. She had long seen that Dongmei was a cautious person, and wanted to climb a branch to become a phoenix, but she didn't even want the shame of a woman. She was really ashamed of being a girl.Xiao Jinzi smiled like a toothache, he was standing closest to Shen Xiaoru, staring at him, he was not worth it for the master, rabbits don’t even eat grass by the side of the nest, relying on the signboard of the young master of the Shen family, where would he go if he wanted a woman? There are a lot of them, why bother to get involved with the girls at home, isn't this asking for trouble?These people laughed and cursed, always watching the fun.Only Wen Qingyun grasped the most important words, Dongmei was pregnant!That is to say, when her family was ruined, they had already started to hide their secrets!She felt dizzy for a while, Xuelian whispered in her ear, miss, you can't fall down, everyone is watching you!

Wen Qingyun opened her eyes wide, and all the eyes of the yard shot over, everyone was waiting for her words, whether to hand over the two shameless men and women to the ancestral hall to soak in the pig cage, or let them go, it all depends on her words.

Mrs. Shen pushed open the door, with trembling hands, and pushed aside all the people who came to serve and serve, "Go, get me the family law, go, find me the elders of the clan. I can't do it, the Shen family has collapsed, we Let's die together!"

Yang Jing'an winked behind Mrs. Shen, telling everyone not to move, then took the lead and knelt down, and then the courtyard was filled with darkness, except for Wen Qingyun and Xuelian, everyone else shouted together as if they had made an appointment, madam calm down, madam forgive Young Master.

So Mrs. Shen looked at Wen Qingyun, her lips didn't move when everyone begged for mercy just now.

Wen Qingyun looked over coldly and said nothing.

Mrs. Shen gritted her teeth and shouted again, "Take the family law!" She couldn't let others subdue her, and she was forced to go to Liangshan.

Everyone knew that this was going to be serious. Several family members got up and walked into the warehouse, looking back at the young lady as they walked. As long as she spoke, things would turn around.

Wen Qingyun seemed to have been put on a body charm, and her whole body did not even move her eyelashes.

Mrs. Shen nodded, "Okay, okay, okay, tie the two of them up!"

Dongmei raised her head sharply, without Yang Jingan's signal, she knew who to look for at this moment, she knelt and walked up to Wen Qingyun, knocking her head on the ground with a bang, "Eldest young mistress, please forgive me this time, I will give it to you in the next life." You are like a cow or a horse!"

Shen Xiaoru over there also started to cry, "Mother, don't hand me over, I was wrong, I will never dare again."

Mrs. Shen looked at Wen Qingyun, there was an invisible rope between the two of them, and they were secretly competing with each other while pulling the rope.

In the end, Wen Qingyun gave up. She thought everything was funny, so she couldn't help smiling and said: "Forget it, since they are in love, it's not a problem. Mother, I ask you to look at it for my sake." Come on, let them go!"

Mrs. Shen breathed a sigh of relief. She had been waiting for this sentence, so that everyone could step down, "Since the young lady said so, what else can I say? The family is unlucky, so take care of yourself." At this moment she realized that she was very I'm afraid, what if Wen Qingyun keeps silent?Really dealt with Xiaoru?She dared not even think about it.

Yang Jing'an hurriedly pushed everyone away, Shen Xiaoru and Dongmei didn't dare to leave, Wen Qingyun couldn't leave, Madam Shen had to leave first.Later, when she returned to the West Courtyard, Xue Lian hid herself and asked, Miss, why are you so generous?Nobody appreciates you, they take you for a fool.Wen Qingyun didn't say a word, but at that moment she thought of someone, the promise she had made.She wants to be that person, maybe she is the one who will be tied into the ancestral hall, what right does she have to manage others?

4,

Dongmei was carried from the corner gate of the garden into the west courtyard in a small sedan chair for two people, which was regarded as a marriage. Compared with the ostentation of Wen Qingyun passing through the door before, it was shabby and uncomfortable.Even those old ladies and maids who always liked to make irresponsible remarks felt a lot of grievances for those in the sedan chair.My aunt is also a grandmother, so instead of suffering from such grievances, it is better to have a servant who can live with her back straight.Dongmei sat in the sedan chair, her lips were pursed into a line, because her lips were too tight, revealing her pale undertones of red rouge.She was a little nervous, more worried.The hand unconsciously covered his stomach, as if something would go wrong if he let go.

Qin's mother became a bride, and she led the sedan chair to the moon gate in the west courtyard, shouting loudly, "The bridegroom kicked the sedan chair door!"

Shen Xiaoru is again dressed in bright red, and his face is not happy. He has been like this since he decided to ask Na Dongmei to come in. These days, he only smiles when he meets Wen Qingyun face to face. He smiles when he is embarrassed and apologetic In the movie, Wen Qingyun didn't look at it, and didn't talk to him unless it was absolutely necessary. She didn't appreciate it, and he gradually became cold-hearted and complained, and remembered the rumors about her and Zhong Han's right and wrong, It's a bit of a letter.

Mrs. Shen was sitting in the main room of the west courtyard, she glanced at him, and seeing that he didn't move, she made a wink to ask Xiaofang to come over and pull him.Shen Xiaoru stood up half-pushed, and heard Mrs. Shen say, "Don't be wronged, you don't want my aunt, I still want my grandson." After speaking, he cast a hard look at Wen Qingyun who was sitting on the side.At the beginning, she forgave them, so who should she show her dead face first?
Wen Qingyun's face was expressionless like a wooden carving made of mud, she came here today as a decoration and received a big gift.She couldn't show too obvious dissatisfaction. In the final analysis, it was her stomach that didn't live up to expectations. In Mrs. Shen's words, the eldest grandson of the house was not on the way, so how much trouble would it cause for the Shen family?So she had to suffer this embarrassment if she wanted to, and if she didn't want to, she couldn't avoid it.

Dongmei walked in with small steps, offered tea, and from then on she was considered as a member of Shen's family.When the ceremony was over, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.The wing room in the west courtyard was originally vacant, and a set of furniture was bought for Dongmei to live in. It was next to the main room where Wen Qingyun lived.Dongmei understood the rules, she took two steps back when she saw her, and said hello, and she didn't go until Wen Qingyun left.Because she was pregnant, Mrs. Shen graciously dispensed with the morning and night meditation, so that she could raise her baby with peace of mind.If so, within a month, Dongmei felt stuffy in the house, went for a walk in the garden, and accidentally slipped on the bluestone path, and the child fell.It was also a coincidence that when Dongmei gave birth, Mrs. Shen went to Zizhu Nunnery, Wen Qingyun went to Maoyong, and Shen Xiaoru still went to the teahouse to listen to books. This time, she was listening to the Sui and Tang Dynasties. At the critical moment, the family members came to report out of breath.When Shen Xiaoru heard this, his heart felt oppressed like a handful of straws.He was reluctant to accept Dongmei at first, and now he didn't even have the only reason, so he really knew why he had to feel the emotion at the beginning.I still have to go home, so standing outside the door and saying a few words of consolation is my duty as a husband.When Mrs. Shen came back, she shed a few tears and said, take good care of her, and went back to her yard to continue eating fast and praying to Buddha.On the contrary, Wen Qingyun sat in front of the bed for a while, and told Xue Lian to take good care of her and not to fall ill.

Xu Shi has never been raised like this before. She eats and drinks every day and doesn't have to do anything. After the confinement period, Dongmei gained a lot of weight. She used to be too thin, but now she has a plump posture. , the brows and eyes were also stretched, and the mole hidden under the corner of the right eye was exposed for a moment, with an indescribable charm.When Shen Xiaoru saw her, his heart suddenly moved, and he saw her lowered eyebrows, looking like a small bird, her body was itchy.After dinner in the evening, he entered the wing room.Naturally, Dongmei served her with a hundred times of care, and both of them felt like a concubine.After being comfortable, Shen Xiaoru lay on his back on the bed, stroking the hair of the person in his arms with one hand, and resting on the pillow with the other, Dongmei asked when he was drowsy, "I am better, or is she better?"Shen Xiaoru said, it's different.Dongmei is not forgiving, how is it different?Say, don't say don't let you sleep.As he spoke, he drew circles on Shen Xiaoru's chest with his fingers.After teasing Shen Xiaoru, his whole body started to itch again.Turning over and pressing against Dongmei's body, she said bitterly, that's the difference!Dongmei giggled, showing her kindness again.

Shen Xiaoru was right, all women are women, some are charming and swaying, while others are calm and calm.Wen Qingyun belongs to the latter, which makes people awe-inspiring and respectful.Being with her, Shen Xiaoru always felt that there was a big rock on his head, and he had to live his life with his eyes on his nose, his nose, his nose, his heart, and he couldn't relax at all.Even the intercourse between husband and wife, I don't feel any enjoyment, every time I just do things hastily and fulfill my responsibilities.Shen Xiaoru doesn't say these most real thoughts, Wen Qingyun naturally doesn't know, but Dongmei understands, she is more and more deliberately different from Wen Qingyun, she wears blue, she wears purple, it's better to be different everywhere.Shen Xiaoru liked it even more, and gave her a purple gold inlaid jade Ruyi that he got on his previous birthday.Dongmei put it away face to face, and sent it to Yang Jing'an's room.

"Uncle, that's the same thing again, I'm not an ungrateful person." Really, if she was herself, she wouldn't have the guts to pretend to be pregnant, to have a miscarriage, and to ask a doctor to act in a show. Without Yang Jing'an, she wouldn't be able to do the same.

Yang Jing'an nodded, "It's good to have a conscience, I will love you for nothing."

5,

Dongmei was really up to date, and when the new year was over, Mrs. Shen was overjoyed and she didn't know what to do, so she brought a group of people to the West Courtyard to have a look.Standing at the door of the wing room, Yang Jing'an suggested that a full moon banquet should be made for the eldest grandson of the eldest room.Among the crowd were Wen Qingyun Snow Lotus, the three brothers Xiaoru, and Mama Qin and Mama Liang's servants. As soon as Yang Jing'an finished speaking, people got busy, looking for things to prepare their household items, and tossing Shen's house upside down. .Xiaoru said it would be better to invite a play and sing for three days.Madam Shen nodded, it was time to have a good time, the Shen family hadn't held a wedding for a long time.After speaking, he glanced at the closed door, thinking of Dongmei's shabby appearance when he entered the door, his eyes were a little apologetic.Dongmei could hear clearly from inside. She was half leaning on the bed, with her fat son sleeping in her elbow, and she felt that mother respects her son.

Wen Qingyun walked outside quietly, Xuelian followed closely behind, and whispered, "Look at her air, what's so special?"

Wen Qingyun glared at Xue Lian, but it was useless, Xue Lian continued to fight against injustice, "The little wife was born, no matter how good she is, she is a concubine, and if she cannot inherit the family business, the madam has to make a big show, lest others will not know, is it very glorious?"

Wen Qingyun stopped in her tracks and said in a heavy tone, "Enough is enough, stop talking."

"Miss, I'm sorry for you. After you give birth to a young master, it's not too late to celebrate!"

Wen Qingyun said sharply, "If you dare to say another word, I will hand you over to the housekeeper. You are becoming more and more unruly now."

Xuelian was dumbfounded, it was the first time she had learned Wen Qingyun's tone.

In fact, Wen Qingyun also had a kind of awkwardness in her heart, but she refused to admit that it was because of jealousy. She was the main wife and the matchmaker was marrying, so there was no need to be jealous of a girl.

After almost three days of excitement, Shen Yunpei sent a letter from the capital. He had already chosen a name for the child.However, the letter also said that children should not be coddled, and they can avoid it if it is a full moon and a hundred days.Mrs. Shen could read between the lines that Shen Yunpei didn't want to show off, so she had to obey.Qin's mother led the girl and servant to collect what should be collected, and the excitement died down before it even started.It doesn't matter to others, and it can be regarded as a good thing, after all, it saves a lot of trouble.Dongmei's heart was pierced by a thorn, and she ignored the rule of not shedding tears during confinement, and cried hard while hugging Shen Hao.

"It's my mother's fault. My mother is useless. You will be wronged right after you were born."

When Yue Gui, who was sent to serve her, saw what she had heard from Xuelian, she added more details.

Yuegui's lips are thin, and she speaks one word after another without ambiguity, "Auntie, it's not that I'm meddling, I really can't stand it. They are too bullying. Maybe it's their fault if they don't give the young master a full moon." The idea. I'm jealous that you gave birth to a young master, so I can't get along with you."

Dongmei stopped crying, and raised her head abruptly, her eyes filled with resentment, "What do they have, they are coming after me, they have trouble with a newborn child, are they still human?"

When Shen Xiaoru came back at night, she saw Dongmei's eyes were red and the child was crying hoarsely, but she didn't care.Yuegui was persuading, "Auntie, don't do this, is it possible that you are going to starve the young master to death? He is your own flesh and blood."

Dongmei smiled miserably, "It's good to die, our mother and I will die together, so as to save others from being trampled on alive."

Shen Xiaoru frowned, "What kind of trouble is this? It's dead or alive."

Dongmei heard his voice, she got off the bed suddenly, and knelt down in front of Shen Xiaoru, "Master, our mother and I can't survive..."

Wen Qingyun was holding the book, looking at it one after another, the door was kicked open with a bang, and Shen Xiaoru stood at the door with an angry face.

"What's the matter? Who are you losing your temper with?" She put down her book and stood gracefully, her eyes were at the same level as those eyes, neither deceiving nor showing weakness.

Shen Xiaoru was discouraged, and felt a little embarrassed, "You are the one who pushed Dad to stop having the full moon wine?"

Wen Qingyun smiled, "It's my father and mother's decision whether to hold a banquet or not, so how can it be counted on me?"

"But everyone in the yard said that it was you..."

"What did they say? Do you believe it? They also said that you fell in love with a storyteller outside. The last time she was called Jin Yan, and this time she was called Yin Ping. Is there such a thing?"

"Nonsense!" Shen Xiaoru blushed, as if someone had caught him.

"You also know it's nonsense, you can't believe it, right?" Wen Qingyun sat back and picked up the book in her hand, "Are you all right now, my young master?"

Shen Xiaoru came in vigorously, went out dejectedly, simply did not return to the room, went outside to listen to his book, the storyteller was indeed called Yinping, and he really liked it.But how could Wen Qingyun know these things?He cheered himself up in his heart, knowing what he was afraid of?He was just outside to listen and take a look. People like them would not want a storyteller to enter the door. He knew it well and would not break the rules.

When Dongmei was confinement, the first thing she did was take a spare time when no one was paying attention, and carried the baby to salute Yang Jing'an.She figured it out, she can't quarrel with Shen Xiaoru, and Shen Xiaoru won't care about her - the little he likes her can be given to others in a blink of an eye.If she wanted to survive in this family, and if she wanted her children to have a good life in the future, she had to rely on Yang Jing'an.Otherwise, that superficially amiable Wen Qingyun would eat them alive sooner or later.

Yang Jing'an just came back from Kenmu Company. This year, Tonghai and Haigan jointly purchased reeds, and the price was greatly reduced. He and Zhang Mozhi had a large income.Both of them were very happy, and Zhang Mozhi went to have a drink, not to mention that he knew that he was thinking about Zui Mengxuan's Rumei again.Knowing the situation, he sent Zhang Mozhi to the gate of Zuimengxuan, then turned around and came back alone.There are still a lot of things waiting for him at home.Originally, Mrs. Shen said that she would promote another housekeeper to save him a lot of trouble, but he refused.It is enough that Wen Qingyun is snatching away Maoyong, is it possible that he will hand over his family?What's more, he didn't want to keep half-hearted things by his side, and he had to devote all his energy to be on guard.

Dongmei entered the room to salute, Yang Jingan saw her and hurried over, "It's impossible, you are now your aunt and master, and it's up to me to greet you."

"Uncle!" Dongmei was anxious, her voice raised, "Without uncle, how could I be here today? If you say that, I will kneel down to you. I must have done something wrong and offended you. Isn't it okay for me to compensate you?"

Yang Jing'an was satisfied, "How can it be? You see that you are serious. Come on, let me see our young master, his facial features are exactly like his father's, what a pity..."

Seeing him like this, Dongmei felt confident, "Uncle, I brought him here today to salute your old man. Come on, dear son, we have met your grandpa. From now on, you have to listen to your grandpa's words." , when you grow up, you have to be filial to grandpa, you know?"

Yang Jing'an smiled, "Okay, Dongmei, I'll show you this kind of filial piety, and I'll take care of you and the child."

Dongmei breathed a sigh of relief, "Uncle, with your words, I feel relieved, our mother and I..." She couldn't continue, tears fell out.

"I understand, are you still upset about not being able to hold a banquet?" Yang Jing'an sighed, "Actually, I expected it a long time ago, how could she let you off so easily? You don't think she usually shows her beauty, but she hates it in her heart. You are a concubine, and you gave birth to a son, where do you put her face? It would be strange if you didn't find a chance to punish you severely."

Every word of these words was in Dongmei's heart, she asked nervously, "Uncle, what do you think I should do?"

"What to do, let's take it one step at a time. It doesn't matter now, but if she also gives birth to a son in the future, I'm afraid life will be even more difficult for you and the young master." Yang Jingan changed the subject, "She is also strange enough, so After a long time, my stomach didn’t move and I didn’t worry. I ran back to meet the bandit leader Zhong Han. I heard people said that I left the city early this morning and haven’t come back yet. What’s there to talk about? Fortunately, the young master didn’t know , I know what kind of anger I will become."

Dongmei nodded, and when she returned to the west courtyard, she told Shen Xiaoru to see what kind of anger he could become. Who would want Xiaoru to be like a cotton bag, transforming his head-on punches into invisible, and did not respond at all.Dongmei was so angry that she cursed in her heart, you deserve to be a bastard for a worthless thing!Since then, Wen Qingyun and Zhong Han's "personal relationship" has been recorded in Dongmei. She observes Wen Qingyun's actions and behaviors all the time, looking for evidence in it.This is the amulet she prepared for herself and Shen Hao. With this, her fear will be less.

Wen Qingyun went to see Zhong Han. They haven't seen each other for a year. The last time they met was before Shen Xiaoru married Dongmei. Zhong Han went to Maoyong to look for her. She Wen Yuzhu had a good life, so she didn't have to worry about it. In order to avoid unnecessary troubles, there should be no correspondence. He would inform her if there was anything, and he left after speaking.After fighting there, he never appeared again. Sometimes she got some news from the assistants, saying that the power of Zhongjiazhai was getting stronger and stronger, Zhong Han's reputation was getting better and better, and the officers and soldiers who were besieged and suppressed were beaten to death.After hearing this, she felt at ease.She thought it was because Yu Zhu was in the cottage, and what she cared about was her brother's safety.

But this meeting is purely for Shi Maoyong, it's business.Mr. Liu of the Green Gang passed away last month, and Master Hou became the head of the gang to compete with Zhong Han for business.Of course Wen Qingyun refused, but she was worried that the Green Gang would use some tricks, so she came here to remind Zhong Han.

"Thank you." Zhong Han still had an expressionless expression, the light in the depths of his eyes became thicker and heavier, as if he could see through people's hearts, "I will be careful."

Wen Qingyun nodded, and asked again, "Why was the shipment to the south three days late last month?"

Zhong Han said, "It's not peaceful in the south recently, and some accidents happened on the road."

"I heard that too," Wen Qingyun was a little worried, "You have to be more careful." After finishing speaking, she regretted and looked away in a daze.

There is something Zhong Han doesn't understand, but no matter how well he understands it, he has to keep it in his heart. They are people from two worlds, and the two worlds are equally dangerous. They can't allow them to say a word or take an extra step. They waited for a while before asking, "how are you getting on?"

"What can I do, I have to live no matter what, right?" Wen Qingyun raised her eyes to look at him, with indescribable deep and shallow sadness in her heart.

"It's not easy," Zhong Han looked at her without avoiding it, "because you can't do whatever you want."

"But everyone says you're free."

"I wanted to be free and I became lawless."

"Is it different?"

"You can do whatever you want if you are free, but if you are lawless, you have to hide and suppress it. There are too many things you can't help yourself."

Wen Qingyun let out a breath, understood everything, she smiled helplessly, and she burst into tears.After a long time, she said lightly, "I have it." This was a secret that even Shen Xiaoru didn't know, she had just seen a doctor, and when she was sure, she didn't expect to be the first to tell him.Because he will understand, they are all the same involuntary.

He was stunned for a moment, then stretched out half a smile and said, "Congratulations."

What she thought was another thing, "What I promised you before, I'm afraid I can't keep it."

"It's just a joke, I didn't expect you to honor it." He looked into the distance, gently clenched his hand and then slowly released it.She saw a scar on her palm, which was left to save her from Xiu Gu.

Wen Qingyun laughed again, reluctantly, and then said dizzily, "There will always be someone who will keep his word. I can't, and there are others. You will find that person, and then you must remember to tell I."

Zhong Han turned his gaze back, landed on her face, and said one word, okay.

Wen Qingyun couldn't control her mouth, and started talking nonsense more and more, saying that Xiugu is very good, has a good temper, and treats him well, or find a lady from the city, anyway, he has all the skills, what kind of beauty is he looking for? Being Mrs. Yazhai is not a problem.She talked a lot, her mouth was dry, she grabbed the teacup, drank half a cup of herbal tea, and the cup covered her face, she felt crazy.

Wen Qingyun returned home in a daze, Shen Xiaoru sat alone under the window and set the chessboard, seeing her, couldn't help but snort coldly.

"Our eldest young mistress is back. You have been running around all day and night. It's hard enough."

Wen Qingyun looked at him as if she was looking at a stranger, but the child in her belly belonged to him, so she said, "I have it." This was the second time in a day that she said it, there was no joy, only disappointment.

Shen Xiaoru couldn't tell whether it was surprise or joy, so he hurriedly sent someone to tell Mrs. Shen.Mrs. Shen was reciting the Buddha's name in the Zhaitang, so she kowtowed to the Bodhisattva, "Thank you Buddha for blessing."
