Chapter 186 Father Returns Home
Wang Jinyi also knew that this was an obvious tampering. Oh, please forgive me, "Poetry Demon"! I just want to use your poems to find my lover!
After praying in her heart, Wang Jinyi handed the small piece of paper to her grandfather.
"Grandfather, here is another poem. Put this poem first. This is my favorite poem."
After the grandfather took it, he read it over and over again with great interest. Wang Jinyi pulled the two old people back to reality.
The shoulder bag drawings were presented to the two elderly people. Zhu Yu and Qing Yu brought a few shoulder bag samples and walked into the house with the samples. Grandmother and mother leaned forward and looked at them carefully but did not dare to be too obvious. In contrast, the great-uncle and grandfather were not interested.
Wang Jinyi guessed: Grandfather must think that these things in the backyard are not worthy of being put in a formal hall, so let's wait until these things can earn money to build a formal school.
Finally, everyone decided to take three easy-to-carry bags back to the tribe to discuss how to cooperate in the future.
Wang Jinyi thought to himself that if the clan didn't like the shoulder bag, he could just find someone else to cooperate with and use a roundabout way to start the next business.
Think about it, I don’t have a single available person. If I want to develop this project again, I have to find management talent. I can’t divide my energy too much, so it is more important to find people!
Wang Jinyi thought about it and felt reluctant to hand over his property to the clan. After all, he was too poor. He owed more than a thousand taels of silver to the public! When would he be able to pay back this huge deficit? It was really a headache.
Besides, the "Yuan Feng Mao" my mother bought was used in a case in which the eldest son of Zhao Gao injured and killed someone. She was tricked into the case and became a witness. I once heard from my grandfather that my mother's family sued the county and lost the case. I heard that the county court ruled the case as negligent injury and only fined her a small amount of money, and the case was closed.
When the mother heard this, she felt that she had indirectly helped Zhao Gao's eldest son Zhao Song by buying the "Yuan Feng Mao" and felt sorry for Runiang's family.
My father once said that he would try every possible way to help Ru's family and send someone to investigate the Zhao Song case. However, the Zhao family handled the case so well that it implicated several officials. Afterwards, it involved more than just my family who used the shop to find witnesses.
It is said that the family of the governor of the prefectural school was also implicated. I wonder if it was like my family, being dragged into the case without knowing it...
Perhaps this is the reason why the officials investigating the case closed the case hastily.
Thinking of this, Wang Jinyi suddenly thought of the four words "officials protect each other". This is the simplest manifestation of unclear governance...
Chang Xiang'er and the Cao family are obviously Zhao Gao's lackeys, and can be considered birds of a feather.
Wang Jinyi suddenly seemed to open a door. Cao An had always worked for Zhao Gao. Would he come to Beijing to work for the Zhao family? Bringing back the people sent by the right prime minister, did it mean that they were in the same group?
Since the Feng sisters are very good at martial arts, they can use them to follow the clues. If Zhao Gao is Cao An's protector in Xunyang Prefecture, they can directly investigate the Zhao family. This way, they can be direct and have a clear direction. Wang Jinyi made note of this.
My great-uncle asked whether the collection of poems could be published, then drafted a contract, and left the house while talking about poems with my grandfather. When my grandmother left the house, she looked left and right at her daughter-in-law.
Wang Jinyi guessed that her grandmother must have thought that it was her mother who instructed her to tell the story, and she even felt that "The Golden Hairpin" was written by her mother and asked her to do so.
Wang Jinyi didn’t know how her grandmother reported to her grandfather, but that evening, when her mother was teaching the children how to do housework in the backyard, her father came back!
The mother inadvertently looked up and saw her tall and thin father appearing in the corridor of the second gate of Haitang. She was stunned at first, then lowered her head silently.
Wang Jinyi saw her mother biting her lower lip tightly, and when she turned around, she saw her father could not hide his excitement. He strode past the servants who were greeting him, without even looking at her, and went straight to her mother.
The mother took the handkerchief off her body, and the father had already put his arms around her shoulders. The mother was crying, and the moment she looked up, her face was already covered with tears.
The father took the handkerchief from the mother and wiped away her tears. Wang Jinyi watched the interaction between her parents and felt that she had become an unnecessary eye-catcher. What should she do now that she was a bit of an eyesore? !
Wang Jinyi knew her own limitations, so she gently walked towards Qing'er beside her, held her hand, and whispered: Let everyone in the yard go!
Qing'er had originally lowered her head to avoid the crowd, but after being reminded by her young lady, she quickly raised her head and clapped her hands to the servants everywhere, and then waved. Wang Jinyi was about to leave with the nanny and Zhu Yu, but her father stopped her:
"Jin'er, don't go. Let's go back to the house and talk."
Wang Jinyi looked at her mother who was suppressing her emotions and her father who was excited, and followed them into the house obediently.
Qing'er had already gone back to the house to clean up, and Zhu Yu hurriedly followed to help. After they sat down, the tea and snacks were already set. There was a glass of water in front of him and his mother, and a cup of tea next to his father.
Father didn't let go of mother's hand until he sat down. He drank a cup of tea and said leisurely:
"Does Hui Niang want to go with me to protect the ancestral forest?"
When the mother heard what the father said, she looked up at him in surprise and did not reply for a while.
"Hui Niang, our parents want us to decide for ourselves whether we want to go to Zulin together. We won't be forced to separate this time. You just need to think it over."
The father stretched out his hand as if he wanted to touch the mother's face, but when he saw his daughter sitting next to her with a happy face, he finally moved his hand to the child's face and gently stroked the top of her head.
"Good boy, this is a poem written by Jin'er, right?"
What my father was holding was exactly half of "The Golden Hairpin".
"Your grandmother said that you took great pains to make up stories in order to help your parents..."
The father stopped talking, his eyes slightly reddened. Wang Jinyi felt that she should leave now and not be a stumbling block to her parents' relationship. So she quickly jumped to the ground, holding up her skirt with her two little hands, and said quickly:
"Dad, Mom, I have something else to do. Let's have dinner together tonight!"
After saying this, she ran out of the door, lifting her skirt without waiting for her parents' instructions.
As soon as she went out, she saw Zhu Yu and the wet nurse standing at the door of the west room. Zhu Yu's eyes made contact with the young lady, and she immediately reacted and walked to the young lady.
"Miss, do you want to ask if Wen Bai is back?"
"How about it?"
"It has been rented. Wen Bai and Chen Jilailai went together to arrange it. It is a small courtyard in the west of the city. According to him, it has been signed with the official deed. Miss, do you want to meet him?"
"Zhu Yu, go inform Wen Bai to come to Haitang Gate to talk." Zhu Yu knelt down and bowed before walking away quickly.
When the wet nurse accompanied Wang Jinyi to the second gate of Haitang, they saw Zhu Yu leading Wen Bai over.
Zhu Yu handed the few pages of paper in his hand to the young lady. There were the house deed, the lease agreement, and the document written by Chen Jilai, which was signed by Wen Bai. There was also a running account of expenses, and detailed notes were written behind each item.
