Marrying into a wealthy family is a little confusing

"Grandfather Zeng once beat someone to death with a stick at home..."

Mrs. Hua's words were like a nail stuck in her heart. Seeing the panic-stricken woman in front of her, Mrs. Li couldn't help frowning deeply.

The Zeng family was originally a local hooligan, and when they got bigger, they began to think about whitewashing. At the beginning, they just started some hawker businesses, doing some non-staple food and processing industries. towards scale.

About 50 years ago, the Zeng family remodeled and set up some small production and processing factories, mainly for some meat and egg foods, which were very impressive.

Later, the hotel business started in the surrounding cities of the county seat. The meat and eggs are all from their own farms, and the price is cheap and the taste is good.The food industry itself has relatively high profits, so the Zeng family has gradually moved towards prosperity.

But the nouveau riche will always be the nouveau riche. The rural atmosphere of one generation or two cannot be changed, and only the third generation of these juniors can detect the atmosphere of some pampered and rich families.

Fortunately, many Chinese people started their families as peasants. Counting three generations, who hasn’t planted fields in the fields, or gone to the mountains and countryside to pick firewood?

As long as the Zeng family still has money, there will be some flatterers.

Mrs. Hua didn't know much about the man who was beaten to death by Mr. Zeng at the time. She was just a nanny in her 20s, responsible for chores such as mopping the floor and washing dishes, but she vaguely remembered that the man was a A young man in his 20s with a gentle appearance.

After the man died, there was no relative to claim it. I heard that he was buried in a random place. It has been more than 20 years since his death, and it must be a beach of bones now.

"What's that man's name and identity, don't you know?"

"I don't know, I only know that he didn't even hum when he was beaten to death."

Sister-in-law Hua thought of the man in the white cloth, and said, "Not long afterward, Miss Zeng's family disappeared. It is said that she jumped into the sea."

Mrs. Li pursed her lips. She did hear that Mr. Zeng's youngest daughter had passed away, but she had never heard of jumping into the sea.

Mrs. Hua continued: "Later, we servants were sent a sum of money, and then we were sent away. Now almost no one in the Zeng family knows what happened back then."

Mrs. Li nodded. It seemed that this simple woman really didn't know anything, so she said to her: "Go and take care of Che Che, don't tell anyone about this, you understand?"

Mrs. Hua nodded hurriedly, she is not stupid, there is a husband and son at home, who would gossip and cause trouble for herself.

Mrs. Li watched Mrs. Hua go downstairs, and after a slight pause, she opened the door and entered her office.

Maybe it's just gossip from rich people, after all, who hasn't encountered some things yet.

Li Jingyin promised that Shu Wen would accompany him to the orphanage. This was the first time Li Jingyin was willing to go there since they had known each other for so long, not counting the previous time in the snow.

Hearing that some abandoned children came to the orphanage recently, Shu Wen thought about bringing some gifts to the children, and other children also needed to bring some.

Seeing Shu Wen who would go shopping every time he went back to the orphanage, Li Jingyin even had the illusion that he was going back to his mother's house.

Electric remote control cars, kitten fishing, yo-yos and dolls. Li Jingyin still remembers that when he bought them, the boss kept skimming them, and told them that these things were not easy to sell. If they are expensive, you can buy less. , There are some cheap goods over there that will have a higher profit.

For such a caring boss, Li Jingyin really has troubles and can't tell, so he can only bite the bullet and say that they can choose by themselves.

In addition to toys, there are some snacks, and those that cannot be filled will be sent by courier. The trunk is full of things, and Shu Wen is satisfied.

"Is that all right?"

Li Jingyin turned his head to look at the things piled up on the back seat, and said indifferently: "Our car can't fit anymore."

Shu Wen poked his head out of the garage, looked at the car, and said helplessly, "Then install that much first."

Li Jingyin laughed, and looked back at him: "Why don't you order a few SUVs in a few days, so that you can pack more things."

"No, no, no." Shu Wen knew that Li Jingyin was teasing him for buying too many things, so he could only blushed and said, "Just buy less next time."

It's not that Li Jingyin cares about money, Shu Wen can just buy whatever he wants, and the Li family won't be emptied by two toys.It's just that he was a little worried that Shu Wen would always "go back to her mother's house" with such a big bag, and if one day he brought less things, he might complain.

He has seen a lot about Dou Mien's promotion to Michou.

"Let's go." Li Jingyin stretched out his hand to hold Shu Wen, and told him: "You sit in the co-pilot, there are a lot of things today, if the car is not stable, it is easy to crash."

Shu Wen nodded, and said embarrassingly, "I drive very steadily."

Li Jingyin smiled: "Slow driving does not mean steady driving."

Pushing Shu Wen into the passenger seat, Li Jingyin fastened the seat belt for him, kissed him on the forehead by the way, and then turned to the other side and sat in.

Shu Wen rubbed his head, and the ring on his finger rubbed his forehead, feeling an inexplicable sense of satisfaction.

Li Jingyin's car drove smoothly along the way. Shu Wen fiddled with his mobile phone when he was bored, and occasionally chatted with Xiao Zhao and the others. These people didn't rest on weekends, so they even went to the buffet together.

Among them were a few photos, Xiao Zhao opened his bloody mouth and stuffed noodles into his mouth, and the little girl beside him made a hand gesture, indicating that he was awesome!

In a photo, Shu Wen also found Yu Xiaoqiu who was out with the people from the secretariat.

She was wearing a light yellow down jacket and was waiting in line for the steak at the buffet. She held a plate in her hand and looked at the queue in front of her, which made Shu Wen feel very novel.

It turned out that Yu Xiaoqiu was also an ordinary person in private.

Li Jingyin watched Shu Wen speak, then turned down the music in the car, and soon arrived in front of the orphanage.

The place to be demolished is always different every day. It has been a long time since I came here. Some fences have been built around it. Because there is a park next to the orphanage building, many saplings have been moved around recently.

Taking advantage of the good weather, the children were drying their quilts in the yard, while Aunt Fang was sitting by the side, playing with pickles that had been dried.

When everyone saw Li Jingyin's car driving into the yard, they all stopped what they were doing and looked at this side together.

Some children who had seen this car had already let go and ran over. After the car stopped, Shu Wen was not in a hurry to get out of the car, and opened the trunk door first.

Aunt Fang came over and was a little unhappy seeing Shu Wen bought so many things again, she muttered: "Why did you bring so many things again, Shu Wen, you have spoiled these children."

After saying this, Aunt Fang saw two people getting out of the car, and said in surprise, "Mr. Li is here too?"

Li Jingyin nodded and said, "Come over with Shu Wen and have a look."

Aunt Fang nodded, then turned her head to reprimand the little boy who was carrying two toys and asked him to return one.

Shu Wen looked around and said with a smile: "The children don't go to school today, why don't you let them come out?"

Aunt Fang smiled when she saw Shu Wen, but she didn't rush to speak, she just said slowly: "The children are all out."

Shu Wen was puzzled, as if he understood something in his heart.

Xiaohe's familiar children before have been gradually adopted, and now these children are the new batch of orphanages, Shu Wen looked at those children, only a few of them were familiar, and the others were very strange.

Children of all sizes gathered together, and the oldest was only seven or eight years old. When these children gathered together, they didn't dislike the dirt on the grass, and just sat on it and fiddled with the toys that Shu Wen brought them. , It's really novel.

Aunt Fang glanced at the group of children and thought that they would not make too much noise, so she said to Shu Wen, "It's windy outside, go inside."

Pushing open the door of the orphanage dormitory, a wave of warmth came out.

Aunt Fang looked at the children moving things in the house, and said, "The weather is fine these few days, let them take out their things to dry in the sun, otherwise the bedding will be damp all winter."

At this moment, Shu Wen raised his head and looked at the two children sitting in the corridor on the second floor.

Unfamiliar faces, small cheeks, Shu Wen had never seen these two children before, and because they both had short hair, they couldn't even tell their gender for a while.

"This is..." Shu Wen looked at Aunt Fang and asked, "Is this also a new kid?"

The three and four-year-old children looked at Shu Wen with a little timid eyes, the kind of eyes inherent in every child when they came to the orphanage.

Aunt Fang nodded and said to them: "You two go indoors and stay here, don't sit here."

The child stood up slowly, held hands and walked to the second floor without looking back at everyone.

The two children were short and small, and their backs looked much thinner. Aunt Fang watched the children enter the room, and then said to Shu Wen: "Now sit in the living room for a while, the dean has gone to the city hospital. There was no one in the orphanage for a while."

"Well, I know." Shu Wen nodded: "The dean called me, thinking that he has no one to take care of him in the courtyard, so he wanted to come and have a look."

Aunt Fang heard this, and said helplessly: "The old director is old, and it is a great blessing to live to this age. I just don't know if I can survive this winter."

Seeing the two chatting and walking towards the living room, Li Jingyin stopped and looked at the two little heads on the second floor.

The child looked at Li Jingyin with fear in his eyes: "Did mother ask you to pick us up?"

Li Jingyin frowned, but did not answer.

Another child grabbed the clothes of the child beside him and said in a low voice: "Mom told us to wait here, don't go with them, otherwise how will mother find us when she comes back?"

It was not until later that I heard that these two children were twins. Their parents put them at the gate of the orphanage, leaving only a sentence of "wait here, mom and dad will come back", and they never appeared again .

The child carried a note with his name and date of birth on his body, and was completely abandoned in these cold winter days.
