Say no.

Li Li looked strange, and said, "Miss Zhu in the front yard hanged herself from the tree in front of the house last night!"

Asked Wu Meng, "Zhu girl? Zhu Mei? Zhu Mei in the front yard?"

Li Li nodded, rubbed his chin regretfully and said, "It's a pity! That girl looks good, but she's only seventeen, why can't she think about it!" After speaking, his expression changed, and he said disdainfully, "I heard that girl is here The man who hooked up with the man in the mansion must be an abandoned woman, so she hung her neck on a tree if she couldn't figure it out!" Seeing that Xiang Wu disagreed, he immediately added, "Old Wu, don't you believe it? Make a bet! One tael of silver! I bet that little □□It’s definitely not a girl! Maybe there’s a bastard in my belly!”

After all, it is a human life, Xiang Wu is afraid of the sky, the earth, the gods and the ghosts, how dare he make this bet with Li Li!He just found an excuse and slipped away like fleeing from Wu, as if he had done something shady.

There was a murder case in front of Wenren's mansion, and the deceased was a servant of Wenren's mansion, so it was inevitable that officials would come to the door.

It's unlucky to have dead bodies and people from the yamen come to visit early in the morning!As soon as the officer left, Xi Jue, who met the guests in the front hall, threw away several teacups in a row!It just happened to fulfill what he said yesterday, annoying!

On the contrary, the second lady who lived in the west courtyard laughed a few times when she heard people, and said a few words to the servants who were waiting on her side.

"Look at that little slut who dared to refute me yesterday, but she's hanging out today! A slave's life is a slave's life. I want to climb the dragon and become the phoenix, and the servant is better than the master? I want to see if she has this life to enjoy!" He glanced at the so-called sister-in-law in the distance.

Later, the government investigated Zhu Mei's hanging case for three days, and it was confirmed that she had hanged herself to death. Wenren's government paid some money to Zhu Mei's family, and then let it go.

Originally, Xiang Wu almost forgot about it once the incident was over, but he had some impressions when Li Li mentioned it one day.Li Li has a friend who works in the yamen, and it is said that he got the gossip from there.

When Zhu Mei died, her body was not perfect, and she was still three months pregnant, her abdomen was a little bulging.The servants in Wenren's mansion were buzzing, and they were all guessing who it was.Later, a servant in the west courtyard said, "That little slut has sneaked into the west courtyard, and has bumped into the young master several times!" With just one sentence, it was determined that the seed in Zhu Mei's belly was the young master's Wen Renwei. seasonal.This is not necessarily false.This Young Master Wen Ren usually only lives in the mansion for two or three days a year; the last time he came back happened to be the funeral of Master Wen Ren, which unfortunately was three months ago.Let's not say whether this is true or not, anyway, when the word spread to the other side of the young master's concubine, the woman was so angry that she almost tore the servant's mouth with her claws!

The sister-in-law rushed to watch the excitement when she heard about Renxiang Nong, and yelled loudly as soon as she entered the door, "Where is the bitch cursing? Yo! It's not my elder brother's side room, Mrs. Liang!"

Everyone in Wenren's mansion knew that the second young lady, Wenrenxiang Nong, was at odds with Liang Shi. When the two met, they fanned cold wind and poured cold water on them.But the second wife, Murong, of course loves her own daughter, plus she has resentment towards the daughter-in-law here who didn't have any more eggs except a daughter, so Liang always gets angry.

This time, Mrs. Liang was deflated. She was so angry that she couldn't vomit in her chest. She was so angry that Mrs. Liang fainted on the spot!

After watching the good show, Wen Renxiang still didn't forget to clean up the aftermath, "Oh! Go find a doctor! If that woman gets angry with me and puts a plant in her stomach, I will commit a crime!"

Li Li said it vividly, and sometimes he suppressed his voice to pretend to hear Xiang Nong's harsh tone. After listening to Xiang Wu, it was like watching a big drama.

Li Li wanted to continue talking, but when he saw someone approaching, he immediately tightened his mouth and slipped away.

The person who came was the doorman in the front yard, and said that someone outside said that Xiang Wu's own sister was looking for him.

Counting the time from Xiang Wu, it has only been four days since he was deducted [-]% of the monthly money, which is just enough to go back and forth to his hometown.

Xiang Wu's hometown is far away from here, and he would only hitch a ride here unless it was urgent or someone was passing by.Especially the eldest sister, Xiang Hao, who is already the mother of several children, plus she has to worry about family affairs, so she usually can't leave.

As soon as I left the gate of Wenren Mansion, my eldest sister stood under the big tree in front of the stone lion in front of the gate.Xiang Wu hesitated whether to tell her that someone died there.

"Wu Zi!" Sister Xiang waved at him.

Xiang Wu walked over, "Sister, why are you here?"

Glancing at Eldest Sister, she was filled with resentment and anger, "It's not about your brother-in-law! You said he had done a good job in Wenren's house, so why did he get sent back?" Without making a sound, he said again, "Why don't you smash a bad glass! Wu Zi, that's your brother-in-law, why don't you help to say something nice! It's easy to do anything if people keep it! These days, there are wars outside, you What do you call your brother-in-law, how do you call our family to live?"

"Sister, that's a glazed cup brought back from Persia, and it costs 300 taels of silver for each." Not counting the silver for darts and other messy expenses.

Sister Xiang immediately fell silent, and after a long time said reluctantly, "You have been here for 15 years, so you can't beg for mercy?"

"Sister, I can't protect myself. Because of this, I deducted [-]% of the monthly payment!" It was because his brother-in-law was entrusted by him.

"Why don't you deduct some monthly money! Your brother-in-law doesn't even have an errand right now! The harvest in the field is not good this year, and the rice tank at home is almost empty! You eat well and live well in the city, and you don't think about the people in your hometown! You have to starve us to death to be willing!"

She shouted, pretending to be about to cry, "You have been in the city for so long, you know some people, think of a way to discuss with them!"

Xiang Wuke was troubled.So what if it's been a long time, he's still not a small accountant, and his face isn't big enough for someone else's ass!

"Yes, otherwise, I will look for this month to see if there is any vacancy. If I find it, I will send a message to my family."

Sister Xiang had no choice but to give in.

Xiang Wu sent her away, and when he parted, he put all the money on his body into her hands.He didn't dare to wipe his sweat after watching the bullock cart go slowly.

I don't know how long the spectators behind him watched, and finally saw Xiang Wu turned around and found himself before smiling slightly and walking out from the side.It turned out to be Wenren's elder brother, the second young master Wenren Xihuan.

"Second Young Master." Xiang Wu called respectfully.

Wenren Xi Huan nodded and asked, "Was that your eldest sister just now?"

"Yes." I don't know how long the other party has been watching, it's really making a fool of myself, alas!

"The third brother is also true. There is no need to drive people away with just one cup. But the ones driven away by the North Court will not be taken again. Why don't you go to the South Court to ask. I heard that the South Court is short of manpower. It’s easier to do things with an acquaintance.”

"Thank you, Second Young Master!"

Wenren Xi Huan smiled and went back home.

Xiang Wu watched him enter the door, bowed his head in confusion and distress.

Why let this kid catch him on the spot!After so much difficulty, I just had the opportunity to get my brother-in-law out of Wenren's Mansion, and now he can't even refuse!

When Xiang Wu returned to the east courtyard at night, he saw the master of the courtyard lying dead among the flowers again.The smell of flowers and wine was very pungent, Xiang Wu dragged out the protruding feet from the flowers, Wen Renpu didn't wake up, turned over and continued to sleep.Still thinking about what to do, old man Hu arrived in time to take over.

Returning to the room as usual, I wanted to wash my body because I was stained with alcohol when I was helping someone, but someone jumped up behind me!

Xiang Wu was taken aback!After breaking away, the people behind him hurriedly blew out the candlesticks, and hurriedly closed the doors and windows.Looking back, there was someone sitting on his bed vaguely.

He frowned and walked over, and the other party said in a low voice, "Your family is troublesome."

"Can it be more troublesome than you? It's just a sin!" Although Xiang Wu was angry, he didn't dare to speak out, feeling that the other party stretched out his hand to hold him, and he didn't like it, so he shook off him and walked to the other end of the bed to sit down.

"Isn't it good to go to the South Courtyard?"

In the darkness, two figures twisted together on the bed.

"What's so good about the South Campus!" Panting, Xiang Wu stretched out his hand and slapped hard on the head in front of his chest!Tell you to tickle me!

The other party stopped in pain and complained in a low voice, "Hey, just touch it a few times, what a rarity."

I don't care if you touch it again!Xiang Wu pushed away the evil barrier, ignored the seemingly non-existent murmurs on the bed, got out of bed, took a change of clothes and went out to wash his body. When he came back, he had already left.

He lay back on the bed, closed his eyes for a while, and then slapped his head!

Why did he fool him!Didn't he intend to ask about Zhu Mei's death?It's rare that people come to their own room and get fooled!It's getting longer and longer!

Two days later, brother-in-law Zhang Zhi returned to Wenren's Mansion, but this time he did not go to the north courtyard but the south courtyard.On the day he came back, he invited Xiang Wu out for a drink. This time he was lucky to get to his toes, and of course his brother-in-law also contributed a lot.When he opened his mouth and shut it up, he praised Xiang Wu, almost saying that there is nothing in the sky and nothing on the earth.

One person is really happy and the other is sad.

Xiang Wu drank a lot of wine and talked about his sufferings.

That evil barrier didn't know what he was thinking, so he just let Zhang Zhi go to the South Courtyard.The evil is that it doesn't eat people, but that's the South Courtyard!He may eat people or not, but if his eldest sister becomes a widow because of this, she will definitely eat him!

After drinking the wine in the middle of the night, the two returned to Wenren's mansion.It was just that one went back to the east courtyard and the other went to the south courtyard, and the two dispersed in the front hall.

Xiang Wu drank a lot of stuffy wine, and walked towards the east courtyard before the smell of alcohol dissipated.On the way, I don't know who came to meet him in a hurry, and bumped into Xiang Wu, knocking him out of the alcohol.It's just that before he recovered, he bumped into another person!

Take a look at Wu Ding, drink!It was Xi Jue who heard it!

Wen Renxi felt that he was in the way, pushed him away, and chased after the person just now.

Xiang Wu only felt that Ren Xijue was stepping on the wind, and he disappeared in an instant.At that time, his mind was not clear enough, so he continued walking without thinking too much.

In the courtyard of the east courtyard, he ran into Wen Renpu from afar.It's rare that he wasn't drunk this time, but
