Looking at the bright moon

He Zongkui's condition gradually stabilized. Although he was still ignorant and uttered bad words, he did not get worse.Knowing that his adoptive father's life was not in danger, He Lingshan set the return date for next week, perhaps because he was in a good mood, and things went well for him recently.Although some managers in the Jing Gang didn't want him to leave, they obeyed after knowing that the person who was going to take over was Chun Qiao.From then on, He Lingshan could officially live in Yannan for a long time by taking advantage of the business relationship between the Wen family and the Jingbang.It's funny to say that when He Lingshan traveled alone for three years, even though those three years were difficult, he persisted.But right now, he has only been away from Yannan for a few months, and he is so worried about the person far away that he can't even stay for half a day.

The brothers and sisters of the He family knew the news that he was going to leave, and they all proposed to hold a banquet for him to practice.They were very thoughtful, knowing that He Lingshan was not a lively person, they only held banquets in the mansion, and they didn't even invite outsiders to the guests.Chunqiao took this opportunity to bring Qing Rong in front of everyone, hoping to get the two younger sisters closer to her.

Almost all the He family members gathered on this day, except for one person who was not present.That person was Mrs. He Er. As early as five days ago, she made a big incident in silence, which no one expected.Since the Second Mrs. He came back from Bailu Temple, her style has become much more restrained than before, and she has even reduced her going out, hiding in her room all day long to kill time.Xingmeng originally thought that she couldn't stand the scare, and would accept it honestly in the future, but she didn't know that the second wife of He stayed behind closed doors, but actually had other plans.She packed up all her private jewelry and managed to contact her lover. The next afternoon, she lied that she was unwell and wanted to go to the hospital to see a doctor, but in fact she took her lover with her, and the two eloped together by train.

Before leaving, Mrs. He gave a lot of benefits to the old women in the yard. She only said that she was unhappy at the He family and would go back to her mother's house for a few days, so that they should not mention it to the He family brothers and sisters.Coincidentally, the He family had a lot of troubles recently, and she actually escaped once. When Xingmeng found out that she had escaped, the incident had passed for more than two days.

Chunqiao also did not expect that the first thing he did when he officially took office as head of the family was to arrest his stepmother who had eloped with others.No matter how meticulously Mrs. He's plan is, she is an ordinary woman after all, and she can't hide it from Jingbang's eyes and ears.Not long after, the people sent by Chunqiao sent back the news.Said that the two were blocked in a hotel in a small town in Shanghai and Qing Dynasty, and asked Chunqiao how to deal with it.At that time, He Lingshan saw Chunqiao's gloomy face, so he knew that he must be very angry.Although Chunqiao didn't like this stepmother, she betrayed her husband who was seriously ill and started an affair with another man, which literally trampled He Zongkui's face in the mud.Chunqiao regards his father very seriously, seeing her bullying He Zongkui like this, it is possible to kill her.

But He Lingshan didn't expect that Chunqiao not only didn't kill Mrs. He, but also let them go far away.When Chunqiao talked about this matter with him, seeing He Lingshan's expression, he immediately said: "You are much harder than me. If you let you deal with it, these two people may not live until tomorrow."

He Lingshan didn't comment, just said: "Of course I follow the rules."

Chunqiao thought of his old father lying on the bed, put away the joke on his face, and said, "When I heard her do such a thing at first, I did have murderous intentions. But I let her go, far from wanting to spare her You probably don’t know, but I let people confiscate all their belongings. Since these two people are going to have the same fate, I might as well teach them what it’s like to be a poor and humble couple. If my father thinks of her in the future, I will naturally I will want my father to explain, and according to his temper, he probably won't object to my approach."

Speaking of this, he snorted coldly: "This woman has been married to the He family for many years. My father has never treated her badly for a moment. Even if it is a stone, he should be cultivated into jade by him. Now let this If Yu falls into the mud again, I don't know if she can bear it."

The way of punishment was so tricky that He Lingshan couldn't find any words to comment for a while.The Second Mrs. He is willing to take the risk of offending the Jing Gang, risking her life to run away with her lover, and she must love that person very much.I don't know how much of her affection can remain after day and night of suffering. He Lingshan is also deeply involved in love at the moment. Thinking about it this way, she feels that it is really possible for her to endure it.

He said this idea to Chunqiao, but Chunqiao spread his hands and said with a smile: "If that's the case, what else can I do but make them happy? Now both men and women have the right to pursue love and freedom. I will force her back." Well, we see her as an eyesore, and she sees us as enemies, and even embarrasses my father, so why should I ask for trouble?"

After Chunqiao finished talking with He Lingshan, he used this to convince his two younger sisters. From that day on, even if the Second Mrs. He had completely terminated the relationship with the He family, no one mentioned it again.Today's practice banquet of the He family would make everyone more comfortable without her presence.Xingmeng toasted He Lingshan with a glass of wine, looked at him and said, "In the past few years when you and I have been siblings, I have not fulfilled the responsibilities of the eldest sister, but have been taken care of by you a lot. Unlike the eldest brother, I have a lot of travel. The opportunity to see you again, I have to ask you to come back a few more times in your spare time, so that I can do my best in entertaining you."

He Lingshan also knew the farewell this time, and he didn't know when it was goodbye, so he couldn't help but sigh.

Xingli was a little awkward, she refused to look at He Lingshan, she just stared at the wine in the glass, and said in a low voice, "I've only been back for a few months, and I'm about to leave us soon, how could you be such a big brother."

What she said was very ignorant, Xingmeng was about to teach her sister a lesson, but saw Xingli's nose was red and she was choking up sobs, so she had to hold her hand to coax her.Seeing that He Lingshan was embarrassed by the words, Chunqiao gloated and smiled at him, until Qing Rong gave him a stare, then he coughed a few times, turned his head to tease his sister: "Back then, Dad asked you to call you Brother Lingshan, you You even smashed Dad's teapot, and turned yourself into an older sister, why did you admit that you are an older brother this time?"

Xingli was immediately ashamed and annoyed, and said angrily, "You mustn't say anything!"

After Chunqiao made such a fuss, everyone's melancholy disappeared immediately, and this parting became rare and easy.After the meal was over, Chunqiao was so drunk that he fell asleep lying on the edge of the table. Seeing that Qingrong and Xingmeng were having a friendly conversation, He Lingshan greeted them, picked up Chunqiao by himself, and brought her back to the hotel. room to rest.

As soon as he went up to the second floor, Chunqiao, who was lying on his shoulder, suddenly raised his head, looked around, and then looked at He Lingshan.

Only then did He Lingshan realize that the other party was not very drunk. Chunqiao stared at him without blinking, as if he wanted to say something.He Lingshan let him look at him calmly, and said, "What do you want to ask me?"

"How do you know that I have something to ask you?" Chunqiao shook his head helplessly, but after saying this, he stopped speaking again.It wasn't until He Lingshan brought him to the door that he leaned out, grabbed the doorknob, leaned against the door, stared at He Lingshan and asked, "Tell me the truth, what is the relationship between you and Wen Mingyu?"

He frowned, his tone was distressed, and he also felt a little ashamed: "The reason why you escaped here from Yannan, and why Ling Shan became famous as Ling Shan after so many hardships, is all because of him. But you and him He doesn't look like a relative or a friend, so why go through life and death for him? Ling Shan, don't blame me for being supercilious, brother is really worried about you."

Chunqiao only met Wen Mingyu a few times, and it was all when that person visited Yiling years ago. When they met, the two of them had never even communicated with each other, yet he discovered something unusual about it.He Lingshan's expression suddenly sank, he couldn't think of how to answer, he was unwilling to tell this lie, and he was afraid that telling the truth would bring trouble to Wen Mingyu, if the person who asked the question was not Chunqiao, he would definitely use some means to make the other party come back again. I dare not mention this matter.

It was also the first time for Chunqiao to meet such gloomy eyes from his younger brother. He knew that he had hit something, and immediately showed a very complicated expression, but fortunately, there was no trace of contempt in it.He Lingshan breathed a sigh of relief, let go of the hand holding Chunqiao's side, and finally replied: "I value him more than myself, please don't ask me any more."

Hearing how unkind he said, Chunqiao couldn't help but wryly smiled and nodded: "As long as you are not under coercion, I have nothing to say."

He turned to push the door, but he touched the wrong direction several times and failed to open the door.He Lingshan didn't know if he was drunk or was hurt by his attitude just now. He just wanted to explain something, but saw Chunqiao waved his hand to him and murmured: "Don't worry about me, I just can't figure it out... I want everything everywhere No way."

He Lingshan had no choice but to swallow his unspoken words, and looked at Chunqiao silently.Chunqiao was so annoyed that he only vaguely revealed a part of the secret. If he were to know the real relationship between him and Wen Mingyu, he still didn't know how Chunqiao would react.

He originally thought that this matter would make Chunqiao brood on him for a while, but unexpectedly when the two met the next day, Chunqiao still talked and laughed with him as before, as if he had completely forgotten the conversation last night .He Lingshan knew that the other party was understanding him, and he appreciated it very much. He didn't expect Chunqiao to figure out the relationship between himself and Wen Mingyu. As long as he didn't interfere, that would be the greatest help.

Two days before boarding, He Lingshan packed his luggage early and called Longyuan to report the itinerary to Wen Mingyu.Unexpectedly, it was very unfortunate that Wen Mingyu was not at home at this time, and the old butler who answered the phone was very happy to hear that he was coming back, and kept telling him to take good care of himself on the way.Just as He Lingshan was distracted, he suddenly saw the concierge walk in with a letter, bowed to him, and waited for him to finish talking on the phone.

He Lingshan thought that the other party had some business to report, so he immediately explained to the old housekeeper, hung up the phone, and said to the porter: What's the matter? "

The concierge handed him the letter, lowered his head and said, "I received it early this morning. I saw your name on the letter, so I sent it specially."

He took a look at the letter and felt a little disappointed in his heart.There was no Wen Mingyu's handwriting on it, and it didn't indicate which department sent the letter. The envelope was thin, and there was only a thin piece of paper inside after it was opened.He Lingshan took out the piece of paper and found that the handwriting on it was square and dense, and it was actually a piece cut from a newspaper.

What is published in the newspaper is not news, and the length is not long, as if it is a short story of a character.He Lingshan scanned a few lines inexplicably, his face suddenly changed.

Although the paper did not mention Dao by name, the person described was "young and promising, dignified, over [-] years old, celibate, powerful and powerful", anyone who knows the name of that person can guess to him.The person who wrote the article is humorous, but the content is stern. It promotes that the protagonist, a young man, has an affair with a firework woman and has an illegitimate child early.It's a pity that the firework woman's beauty was unlucky, and her soul died young. The protagonist failed to fall in love with her, and instead had an affair with his own son who resembled his lover.

In the meantime, it is true and false, and the very absurd plot is written quite believably.He Lingshan restrained himself to read the last word, finally he was furious, crumpled the piece of paper and squeezed it in his hand, pulled the doorman and asked: "Who did you receive this letter from? "

The concierge was so strangled by him that it was very difficult to breathe, his hands and feet were limp, and he cried: "It's just... the person who usually delivers the letter."

He Lingshan threw him away, unfolded the paper ball again, and turned it to the back to check.The other side was full of advertisements published in newspapers, and people who were looking for friends for renting a house were densely packed together. He scanned through those addresses patiently, and his heart suddenly became colder.

This is Yannan's newspaper, and it will take several days for the sender to send it here from Yannan.Wen Mingyu had obviously seen what was in the newspaper, and he couldn't bear to guess the other party's state of mind at this time, let alone what kind of discussion would be caused by other people who had read the newspaper. Didn't mention it to him!
