The people Wei Yu brought into the house were an old couple and a young man who was seriously ill.
They are a family of three, father, mother and son.
These three people seemed to be honest and kind people at first sight, but they didn't even dare to say anything after meeting Huo Tian and Jiang Nuan.
"Uncle Chen, Aunt Chen, there are some things that you have to say with your own mouth. Didn't I tell you all on the way?
Our father-in-law and his wife are the most compassionate towards the poor and the elderly, and will never blame them." Wei Yu was obviously already familiar with them, and he stepped forward to persuade them in a friendly manner.
"Master, madam, I'm really sorry!" Uncle Chen sighed and said, "My name is Chen Dazhong, and my father's name is Chen Fu."
"Are you Uncle Fu's son?!" Huo Tian didn't expect this. "I have sent people back to look for you several times..."
"My father-in-law is a man who values ​​friendship, so I am very grateful. It's just that we have moved for many years, so no wonder we can't find him." Chen Dazhong smiled honestly.
Huo Tian looked at him carefully and found that he did have some similarities to Uncle Fu.
"This...this is my mother-in-law, and this is Quanzi." Chen Dazhong pointed to the woman and young man next to him and said.
"Who does that pair of pity belong to you?! She came here to join us, but she said you are no longer here!" Jiang Nuan asked hurriedly.
"Oh! It's really embarrassing to mention this." Aunt Chen said with a red face, "She is not named Chen. She is the second girl of the Yu family and married into our family."
"You said these two pities are your daughter-in-law?!" Jiang Nuan's jaw dropped.
"It's true...it's not true." Aunt Chen glanced at her son with some embarrassment. Thinking that the matter was so important that she couldn't say no, she had no choice but to continue, "She did get married to my son, but within half a year, she...
...and we made peace."
Anyone with a discerning eye can naturally see that Chen Dazhong's son has some inherent deficiencies.
Of course, such a weak husband cannot hold down an ambitious wife.
"Shuang Lian came to our place pretending to be Uncle Fu's granddaughter, saying that both her parents had passed away.
My uncle and aunt wanted to plot against her again, so they had no choice but to run out. She told your family's names and birthplaces accurately, plus the half of the jade pendant, so we didn't doubt it." Jiang Nuan said, "What about the jade pendant?
Will it be in her hands?"
"Well, when we divorced, she said that our family had cheated her and she wanted to pay her compensation." Aunt Chen sighed and said, "We feel really sorry.
Girls from any family who are divorced will be laughed at. Besides, our family is indeed in a bad situation, but our family is also poor, and we already borrowed a lot of debt when we got married.
When I couldn't come up with money to give her, she said it would be the same if I gave her something to pay for it. I said at that time, look at what you can like in this house, and I won't stop you even if you take it.
She rummaged around and finally took one of my silver hairpins, a pair of bracelets, and this half of my jade pendant."
"This is Uncle Fu's token of recognition! Why did you give it to her too?" Jiang Nuan asked.
"Well, madam, to tell you the truth, there has been no news from my father for almost fifty years, and we estimate that he will never come back.
Besides, I wanted to keep this thing at that time, but that girl Shuang Lian wouldn't budge even a step away. We were really embarrassed, so we stopped arguing with her." Chen Dazhong said honestly and courteously.
Chen Dazhong and his wife first felt that this jade pendant had lost its intended function, and secondly they did not want to quarrel with Shuang Lian anymore, so they gave it to her.
"It's just that we didn't expect that she would actually come to the capital with such an idea." Aunt Chen also looked helpless, "This girl is really brave!"
"This makes sense. Shuang Lian was once a member of your family, so of course he knows about your family and this jade pendant.
Didn't she tell you that she would bring this jade pendant to Beijing to recognize her?" Jiang Nuan asked.
"She did mention it, but we didn't take it to heart. A man as big as the father-in-law is beyond the reach of us ordinary people." Chen Dazhong rubbed his hands and said.
Obviously, the Chen family's ideas are not consistent with Shuang Lian's.
The Chen family is too conscientious to be opportunistic.
But people like Shuang Lian will try their best to pursue it even if they have a glimmer of hope.
In her opinion, taking a risk can lead to prosperity and wealth for the rest of your life, which is far more cost-effective than staying content and being poor.
So she kicked away the Chen family who was in the way without hesitation, got the jade pendant, and went on the road alone.
"In this case, ask someone to call Shuang Lian, and you can prove it." Huo Tian said.
Shuang Lian had just finished embroidering a flower branch in the house, when she heard that the father-in-law and his wife asked her to come over.
She lowered her head and slowly inserted the embroidery needle, sneaking a smile along the way.
Huo Tian and Jiang Nuan wanted to see her at the same time. They obviously agreed to her conditions and sent her out.
This time she didn't grab the gold ingot, but at least she got a silver ingot in her hand.
Otherwise, she would still be just a divorced peasant woman in the countryside.
He was looked down upon by others and ridiculed by others. He ate braised vegetables and wore rags every day.
A farm with hundreds of acres of land, a thousand taels of snowflake-patterned silver, and a shop where golden eggs can be laid.
Her future life will really be more nourishing and nourishing. She doesn't have to look at anyone's eyes or please anyone, but she will be free and at ease.
She thought happily and came outside the main room.
He calmed down his thoughts slightly and straightened his expression.
She still couldn't show her ugly face in front of Huo Tian and Jiang Nuan. She might have to beg them again for something in the future!
"Master, Madam, Shuang Lian is here." After the mother-in-law said outside, someone opened the curtain.
Shuang Lian lowered her head and walked in politely. Just as she was about to salute, she saw the three members of the Chen family and immediately took a step back in fright, turning pale.
Wei Yu looked at her and smiled: "What? Can't you recognize her?"
"You... why are you here?!" Shuang Lian looked like he had seen a ghost.
"How could you do such a thing? You came here to cheat by pretending to be one of our family members!" Aunt Chen said, "Your father couldn't find you. He was so anxious that he died last winter."
Shuang Lian stared at them blankly, his eyes full of unwillingness.
"Shuang Lian, it is a serious crime to go to the palace to cheat and cheat." Wei Yu reminded her, "You'd better think carefully about how to plead for mercy in court!"
Shuang Lian fell to his knees with a plop and begged: "Master, madam, I was wrong! Please have mercy!"
"Shuang Lian, you are so abominable. If we don't punish you severely, someone will come to us to cheat in the future." Jiang Nuan was not soft-hearted this time. She had suffered enough losses.
Seeing that begging her was not enough, Shuang Lian immediately turned to the Chen family and begged: "For the sake of us being a family, please help me beg for mercy!
The father-in-law and his wife will definitely give you face! From now on, I will live peacefully with Xiaoshan and will never have second thoughts again."
