Chapter 23 Nobody Lives
Rong's mother responded, but did not go in to get the things, but instead ordered the woman to go to the front door.
Li Wenqing was about to ask the manager around him to check it out.
A noisy sound immediately came from the front yard, and the people at the door came to report to Li Wenqing: "Second Master, there is a coffin outside our house."
The coffins just painted were dark and shiny in the sun. They were neatly arranged from the front of the Li family, and they had never seen such a formation in Taiyuan City.
Which family will kill so many people at once?
As soon as the coffin appeared, there was a lot of discussion on the streets and alleys.
Li Wenqing's face turned pale. Is Ji cursing them?
"Ji, do you have any rules? Don't forget that you are the wife of the Li family."
Ji Yanran said: "It was my second aunt who asked me to take out the dowry. That was my dowry, a coffin shop in Taiyuan City."
Coffin shop, listen, who would give such a dowry? Mrs. Li Er went to see Mrs. Li San, but Mrs. Li San looked erratic and seemed to have not realized anything.
Mrs. Li gritted her teeth and knew that Li Wenshu and his wife were not good people, and they pretended to be stupid at the critical moment.
Ji Yanran said: "Marriage and funerals are common things that no one can escape. I don't know about my dowry, but do you not know about it? I have married into the Li family for three years, but the Li family has never used my dowry?"
Mrs. Li sneered: "I don't know that you have these. Which married wife would bring such a dowry to her husband's house." It's really unlucky.
Ji Yanran said in surprise: "Second Auntie, how could you refuse to admit it after you have eaten?" Without waiting for the second wife to retort, she looked at Rong's mother.
Mother Rong immediately bowed and said, "The incense, candles and sacrificial utensils that came out of our yard were all taken from the coffin shop." As she said that, she looked at Mrs. Li Er's head, "And the hairpin our grandma gave you, the clothes, the Ruyi jade pillow you pillow when you took a nap..."
Coffin shop, hairpin, clothing, Ruyi pillow...
Mrs. Li seemed to have thought of something. Could it be that what Ji gave her... were all taken from the coffin shop, right?
The items that were fresh and not old were not very expensive, but were just a few things that the Ji family could take. After the Ji family declined, the Ji family got married from the side tribes, and the dowry was pitiful. In order to gain a foothold in the Li family, the Ji family also took out a lot of things to prepare for them. She had never thought about the source of those things.
She also heard in the past that those who dig graves and robbers wanted to sell some stolen goods and did not dare to take them to the pawn shop, so they simply sent them to the coffin shop. The things bought in the coffin shop were buried directly and not circulated on the market, so no one would pursue them.
"Second Master, Third Master, Second Mrs., Third Mrs., I am the shopkeeper of the coffin shop."
A gloomy voice rang.
Behind the woman was an old man in his fifties and sixties in his dark blue short brown. A gust of wind blew, and the old man had a fresh smell of raw paint. His hands were placed there with his fingers as thin as firewood and his nails were very short, but there was black dirt in the cracks of the nails. He was holding a box in his hand: "This is a gift from our third grandmother to the second wife."
Mrs. Li took a step back. The box was exactly the same as the sandalwood box that Ji gave her. She was really thinking right, those things were...
Mrs. Li seemed to smell the smell of rottenness. She suppressed the disgust in her heart. Just as she was about to speak, she saw the man's gaze falling on her head.
What she wore was wearing on her head was the hairpin given to her by Ji Yanran Xiaojing. Mrs. Li Er had a cold war and couldn't help but stretch out her hand to pull out the hairpin on her head and throw it on the ground.
She was sure that this thing was not the serious way.
"This is what I respected to my second aunt, why did the second aunt throw it away?"
Ji Yanran's voice came, and Mrs. Li suddenly came to her senses and found that all the eyes around her were on her.
Ji Yanran looked at the ground with regret: "I finally found such a fine-crafted one. Why did the second aunt throw it away? Do you think this is... I can't do anything about it. The official school doesn't give me a monthly bill, and I want to respect my second aunt again. This is the only way... I have been doing my best over the years and want to be a good wife."
"You..." Mrs. Li Er looked fierce, "Our Li family does not have a wife like you."
Hearing this, Ji Yanran raised her face: "How can you not be there? Don't forget that I rescued Sanlang from the prison, and I was seeking medical treatment for Sanlang. I have also been filial to my elders on weekdays."
"I tried my best to do these things. If anyone questioned me casually, slandered me, and wanted to harm me, then I..." Ji Yanran smiled, "I can only give him those coffins."
"I can't live, no one can think of living."
Gu Heng looked quietly: "The hairpin was carried by Mrs. Ji, but she gave it to Mrs. Li Er. It seems that her life has not been very good in the past few years."
Chang Zheng nodded. The prince did not like Ji's family, and had long expected that Ji's family would have such a result. This just proved that the prince was wise and powerful.
Chang Zheng was about to praise Gu Heng, but he found that Gu Heng had already walked to Mrs. Li Er in the blink of an eye, bent down and picked up the hairpin on the ground.
Li Wenqing's eyes hopped heavily. He heard that Prince Chengen had come to the door, and he pretended to ignore it because the prince was the first in everything and did everything, regardless of right or wrong, and his way was completely incomprehensible. That's why he wanted to deal with Ji quickly and then deal with the more difficult problems later.
Ji Yanran watched Gu Heng pinched the golden hairpin and looked at the sunshine, and then the hairpin disappeared from his hands in vain.
Then Gu Heng smiled as if nothing had happened: "Grandma Li San cannot say this. If a third grandma makes a mistake, even if Lord Ji is far away from the frontier, he may not know. After I returned to Beijing, I accidentally told the elders of the Lin family that the third grandma committed suicide with a coffin and lost her life for the Li family. The old lady of the Lin family must ask the emperor for a title."
Gu Heng glanced faintly in front of Li Wenqing: "Grandma Li San, while you are here, why not think of a post for yourself! The Li family, all big and small, will rely on this post for life in the future."
Gu Heng was clearly talking about Ji, but Li Wenqing felt a chill on his back, and Prince Chengen was threatening him.
After saying that, Gu Heng showed a bright smile.
"Wait," Li Wenshu said suddenly, "When the account is sealed, we will force our niece to death."
After saying that, Li Wenshu grabbed Li Wenqing's wrist: "Second brother, it's your idea to send Yanran, it has nothing to do with me. I... won't accept this account."
Li Wenqing shook his sleeve and staggered: "Get back to your own house when you go crazy."
