Jade Without Fragrance

   Chapter 24 The Honest Man

   Anyone in the know?

  As a bystander, we tend to subconsciously believe in the weak.

   More than 20 years ago, the Lin family was the manor of the state, and Wen Rugui was only a poor scholar. The girl from the Guogong's mansion took a fancy to the young and handsome Xinke Jinshi, and forced him to stop his wife and marry another due to the power of the Guogong's mansion. Isn't this the story in the storybook.

  The people watching the lively have believed most of Wen Rugui's words, and when they heard that there were people in the know, they became more and more energetic.

   "Who is the insider?" the old lady asked sharply.

   She has been married to the old man for many years, and she never believed that the old man would do something to force people to stop his wife and remarry.

"It's good that Lord Taishui knows that for the spring season this year, the younger brother-in-law's clan brother came to Beijing with his son at the beginning of the spring, and now he is temporarily living in Wen's residence." Wen Rugui's expression became more and more calm, "I married my cousin, when the village Everyone in the middle knows that the truth can be revealed just by asking the clan brother."

  Wen Hao stood by the old lady's side and not many people paid attention. Hearing that, his heart was as cold as ice.

  Father is really not guilty at all.

  Wen's village is located in a remote location, and it takes at least two months to go back and forth. He just assumed that no one would bother to verify.

   Take a step back and say, even if someone does go there, who would tell the truth in the kind of closed village that has enjoyed the benefits of his father's prosperity for many years?

   But how bad does one's conscience have to be to drive his wife and daughter into a desperate situation without changing his face?

   In the previous life, the grandmother was mad, and the mother was crazy, and her life with her sister ended at that time. The more Wen Hao thought about it, the more hated it became, but there was no expression on his face.

  Compared to Wen Hao's calmness, Wen Chan was a little panicked.

   No wonder she.

  Although he knew about his father's foster room, he was a girl who grew up in the loving environment of his parents for 18 years. How many people could imagine that his father would tear down such a big lie in public.

  Wenchan felt panic and fear in her heart.

   She was both reluctant to believe what her father said was true, but also afraid that what her father said was true.

   If it is true as the father said, how should the mother handle herself?

   What about her and her sister?

  Wen Chan shook her cold hand and held her warm hand.

   No matter what the outcome is, she has to protect her sister!

   Feeling Wen Chan's fear, Wen Hao shook her hand and whispered in his ear, "Father lied."

  Wen Chan's pupils shrank suddenly, her expression stunned.

   She didn't know where her sister's determination came from, but she believed it without any hesitation.

   If you don't believe in a sister who has deep feelings, do you believe in a father who will send his mother and their sisters to hell?

   This is a choice that does not require thought.

   Holding her sister's hand, Wen Chan suddenly stopped panicking.

   She was afraid that her grandfather used shameful means to persecute her father, that her mother's identity as a wife was stolen from the beginning, and that the birth of her and her sister was unfair to another woman.

  If you haven't done these things, what's the fear?

   Even if the father deceived the world, in conscience, the strongest is definitely not the father.

   "Then ask your clan brother to clarify!" The old lady couldn't rub the sand in her eyes, so she said without hesitation.

  Wen Rugui secretly sighed in relief.

   What he was worried about was that the old lady didn't care and went straight to the palace to cry in front of the queen mother. Fortunately, he still knew about this Lord Taishui, but suddenly and angry, he followed in his footsteps.

  The old lady didn't even sit in the carriage, she raised her feet and walked in the direction of Wen's residence. She took a few steps and scolded, "Wan Qing, what are you doing stupidly without supporting your old lady!"

   Lin Shi, who had been sluggish all the time, walked towards the old lady subconsciously, walking too fast and almost fell.

  The old lady stretched out her hand in front of her daughter, and said in a loud voice, "Stay safe!"

  Lin's chaotic eyes regained some clarity, and he supported the old lady's arm.

   Seeing the old lady and the others walking towards Wen Mansion, the people watching the excitement followed without hesitation.

   What is more painful than watching it without fun? It is to watch the fun and only watch half of it.

   The streets that were blocked just now became empty in the blink of an eye, leaving only the officials who came to maintain order.

   "Boss, what shall we do?"

   The leading officer hesitated for a moment, and said, "Continue to patrol."

   Although the liveliness looks good, they are officials after all. What if there is a fight between the two sides?

   One side is the General’s House, the other is the Shilang’s House, and the two are still in-laws, so this kind of hot potato can’t be picked up.

  Wen Mansion is not far from here, a group of mighty people arrived soon.

   Steward Wen Ping ran out: "Master, this is—"

  Wen Rugui didn't pay much attention to Wen Ping, and asked in a deep voice, "Is the Eighth Master at home now?"

   Wen Ping glanced over the old lady and the others, and knew in his heart that it was time for a showdown, but he didn't dare to show it on his face: "The Eighth Master went out early in the morning, it seems that he hasn't come back yet."

   "It seems?" Wen Rugui was not satisfied with this answer, and even more dissatisfied with Wen Rusheng.

   In the morning, he specially sent someone to tell his cousin that he should not go out today, why did he go out?

   "The old slave asked the doorman." Wen Ping hurriedly asked the doorman and gave a positive answer, "Master, the eighth master didn't come back."

  Wen Rugui's face was a little ugly: "Send someone to call the Eighth Master back."

   I was a little anxious with the people watching the fun.

  The witnesses are not there. If they waited in Wen Mansion, wouldn't it be fun to watch?

   As expected, Wen Rugui said: "Master Taishui, why don't you go to the mansion and rest for a while."

  Wenchan suddenly stepped forward: "Grandmother, it is not known when the eighth uncle will come back. You should go to the manor and have a cup of tea."

   She watched with cold eyes, these people watching the lively show clearly biased towards her father, and the cousin and father were of the same clan, so he would most likely agree with his father's words.

   Once the cousin testified to his father in front of so many people, it would be difficult for the mother.

  The old lady saw the worry in her granddaughter's eyes and nodded slightly.

   Wen Chan breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly supported the old lady's arm.

   At this moment, a timid voice sounded in the crowd: "Ten, tenth brother—"

  Wen Rugui saw Wen Rusheng and was overjoyed: "Mynah, where have you been?"

   "I just went out for a walk. What happened at home, why are you outside?" Wen Rusheng's eyes flickered, and he couldn't help but look in the direction of Wen Hao.

   Out of the corner of the eye, he saw an expressionless pretty face.

   is cold and beautiful.

  Wen Rusheng's heart trembled and he almost covered his eyes.

   This monster is not afraid of light, nor of people, and will not give people a way to live!

  Wen Rugui didn't know the panic of his clan brother at the moment, seeing him like this only thought that he was not used to being in front of everyone.

  Stupid and unable to stand on the table, he is the kind of honest and responsible person in people's impression.

   "Master Taishui, my brother is an honest man, you can ask him directly."

   The old lady's eyes fell on Wen Rusheng's face: "Are you Wen Rugui's clan brother?"

"Yes."

   "Then tell me, when did Wen Rugui get married?"

  Wen Rusheng subconsciously looked at Wen Hao, the girl's slightly hooked lips made his scalp tingle, so naturally he looked left and right, and finally his eyes fell on Lin's face.

   "When the tenth brother gets married, no one knows better than the younger brother and sister." The honest man said in confusion.
