YM778.TV Chapter 830: Doubtful
The big family has a special cook, and when it comes to the meal, the food and drink are waiting for someone to bring it. Although it is for enjoyment, it lacks the smoke and fire of living at home.
"Husband, I don\'t know who the child in Zhuang Ke\'s stomach is..."
The Zhuang family can be regarded as a scholarly family, so the daughter is so indiscreet? Li Haitang could feel it when he came to Beijing. The etiquette in Kyoto is strict. Compared with Beidi, it is not rude to wear a hat to cover your face when you go out.
When I was in Lijia Village, families in the village would send something casually. Here, if a man and a woman send each other, and the two are not married, it is a private gift and acceptance.
If a woman loses her fame, it\'s not her own fault, it will embarrass the whole family.
For example, Miss Du Ruohe, who disguised herself as a man and went to Songhe Academy, mixed with a bunch of scholars, shared a room with Chen Chun and Yang Xu, was suspected of murder, and her reputation was worse than that of Smelly Ditch.
The Du family has a few ladies who are of the right age and are waiting to get married. Now they have been withdrawn one after another. The other party can\'t bear to find a famous daughter-in-law to enter the house. Otherwise, won\'t they become the laughing stock of others?
Retiring the marriage will offend the Du family, but compared to his own reputation, offending others is not that important.
"If Zhuang is not a flirtatious person, based on time, the child is undoubtedly Yang Xu."
Xiao Lingchuan analyzed that Miss Zhuang Jia hid, perhaps out of her own mind, maybe the Zhuang family felt that she owed Yang Xu, so she wanted to leave him a concubine.
"Hmph, it\'s not a good bird to get pregnant before marriage, without a matchmaker and without a job."
Li Haitang pursed her lips with a sarcastic expression, thinking that Xiangli was not worth it. Only this silly girl still values love and righteousness, and even wants to sue Yang Xu for the sake of overturning the case. What is it if she is not stupid?
The Yang family didn\'t take her seriously at all, lost contact for more than a year, and then sought another job in the capital, and it was Yang Xu\'s own classmate\'s sister who was looking for it.
Thinking of this, Li Haitang frowned, "Could it be that Zhuang Ke is pregnant, and the Yang family also knew about it?"
If not, why did Yang Xu\'s parents stay at the Jingzhaoyi Yamen instead of going to the banker? The two families kept in touch, but Yang Xu\'s parents didn\'t mention it much.
When Xiangli said that she would desperately help reverse the case, the old couple looked uncomfortable and kept changing the subject, insisting that after the case was over, the Du family would kill people to silence them.
Li Haitang suddenly discovered that his understanding of the case was all hearsay, and he had never conducted a formal investigation. Instead, he was led by the nose to speculate on the murderer.
"Husband, repeating what others say, it\'s really scary."
After a long while, Li Haitang took a deep breath and exhaled a foul breath.
People are always confused by appearances, so they can\'t keep the truth from the false. This is a big mistake.
"My lady, this case is not easy."
Xiao Lingchuan had already learned part of the truth, but he found clues by accident. He didn\'t expect that his wife would see many unreasonable things after he only told about Zhuang Ke\'s pregnancy.
He who has never been nosy, decided to investigate and collect evidence, treating it as a small game between husband and wife.
"Husband, did you find something and not tell me?"
Being guided by public opinion and playing around, this feeling is not very good. It\'s just that Yang Xu is said to have been buried in the ground, so it\'s impossible to dig up all the corpses for re-examination.
Furthermore, although she is a doctor, she is not a forensic doctor. There is still a big gap between the two.
"Actually, I found something suspicious."
Xiao Lingchuan shook his head, he hasn\'t been confirmed yet, if it is confirmed, the truth will almost come to light.
The couple made a decision and went to investigate the clues and find the truth.
Li Haitang did all this without telling Xiangli, she was afraid that Xiangli would lose her composure and she would slip the tongue when she went to see Yang Xu\'s parents.
Li Haitang had been looking for an opportunity, but he never expected that the opportunity would come so quickly.
The next morning, Nanny Fang, who was beside Fang Shaoyao, came to the Zhuangzi and asked Li Haitang to bring bean buns to Li\'s Zhuangzi as a guest.
"Mrs. Xiao, the ladies who came here today are all good friends with our wife. Don\'t worry if there are no tricky masters."
Nanny Fang had a particularly good impression of Li Haitang, so she spoke directly and did not hide anything. Most people in the capital are snobbish, watching people order dishes, and each has their own social circle.
Fang Shaoyao herself is a merchant woman, and the wives she made friends with were not high-status, some were officials, and they were also small sesame officials of the sixth or seventh rank, or they were the wives of merchants. Everyone gathered together, chatting their teeth to pass the time, and became more interested. Push Pai Gow together.
The other party sincerely invited, and Li Haitang immediately responded.
No matter where she is, she has many friends and many paths, and she is worried about developing her contacts in the capital.
Li Haitang looked around at the servants, there were only a few of them, she especially missed the two sisters Bai Bing and Bai Shuang who stayed in the Northland.
However, Bai Bing was seriously injured before and needed to recuperate, so she didn\'t let the two of them follow, and let the sisters rest for a while, and come back when they are healthy.
When meeting a guest for the first time, she must not make a joke, so she chose Chunmei and Baiguo to follow.
"Madam, why didn\'t you choose me? Am I not the number one maid?"
Wu Fu held his chest up and raised his head. The first maid didn\'t follow to meet the guests, which was a bit outrageous.
"Five blessings, the most important people must stay in town, and, Mrs. Wang said that she wants to make some scallion pancakes today."
Li Haitang fooled around without changing her expression. She was very kind to Wu Fu, and never used Wu Fu to call herself a slave. As a result, this girl had already let herself go, and now she is upright and can\'t be upright.
"Well."
When mentioning the scallion pancakes, Wufu smiled and sent the carriage to Zhuangzi\'s gate before heading back.
On the carriage, Chunmei was pouring tea. Li Haitang looked at her closely. Although she was not particularly beautiful, she made people feel comfortable. No wonder Li short-legged.
"Chunmei, do you have any requests from your family? Manager Li went shopping, but he doesn\'t know what your parents and brothers like."
When Li Haitang asked, Chunmei was flattered and said quickly, "Ma\'am, my family is a farmer\'s family in the village. My parents and brothers work in agriculture, and I have never seen the big world."
In the early years, Chunmei took all her money and wages home, but after her family recovered from illness, they didn\'t ask her for a penny, and let her keep it for herself.
The family lived frugally, reluctant to renovate the house for so many years, and saved more than twenty taels of silver, hoping to redeem her life.
Chunmei has a contract of living and can go home when it expires, but she doesn\'t know what to do when she goes back, and she is very confused about the future. Her home was not far from Zhuangzi. Occasionally, when Chunmei came home to deliver things, she would always meet an old bachelor in the village, whispering to others, saying that she was just waiting for her, an old girl, to return to the village to get married, so that old bachelor would come to propose marriage.
