Jiang Xiaohua frowned: "Look, the way that man walks in the yard is very slow, like a stroll, like a leisurely stride. He is not in a hurry or panic. With this kind of gait, he is definitely not a servant, but
It could be a member of the Wen family, or it is very likely that she is a member of Sister Wen's family! We haven't seen her during the day, and that's because of her face."
"During the day, she must rarely appear in front of people. She can only come out in the middle of the night when everyone has gone to sleep. This way she will not scare others, and she will feel more comfortable and can walk around as she pleases.
at home."
Ling Wenjing nodded: "Your analysis is good, so who is she?"
Jiang Xiaohua rubbed her eyebrows: "I'll ask Sister Wen tomorrow!"
Ling Wenjing raised her eyebrows: "Do you think Mrs. Wen would tell such a family secret?"
Jiang Xiaohua was stunned for a moment.
She couldn't guarantee this.
Jiang Xiaohua suddenly smiled: "I don't think anyone wants to live in the darkness. If, I mean if I can help her slightly adjust her face, it may not be as beautiful as before, but it will never be as cute as it is now.
Hey, do you think Sister Wen will let me give it a try?"
Ling Wenjing frowned: "What do you mean by fine-tuning your face? Put on makeup like we do?"
Jiang Xiaohua shook her head: "For her, makeup is only temporary and won't work. It's best to do skin grafting surgery. Let me tell you, there is a technology that can replace the burned skin on the face. However, this surgery
You have to go to my space to do it. You don’t have the conditions outside! Let me think about it again! I’d better ask first before talking.”
After Jiang Xiaohua finished speaking, she looked at the man: "Aren't you going to sleep?"
"Can't sleep!"
"Then teach me how to play chess! We have it in this room, ready-made!"
Ling Wenjing nodded.
The two played chess for half the night.
In the early morning, I went back to bed and squinted for a while.
In the morning, when Wen Niang came over, Jiang Xiaohua hadn't gotten up yet.
Jiang Xiaohua opened her eyes and saw Wen Niang: "Sister Wen, you are here!"
Wen Niang pointed to the black spots under Jiang Xiaohua's eyes and asked in surprise: "What happened? You changed places, didn't you sleep well?"
Jiang Xiaohua waved her hand: "Sister, I just have something to ask you!"
"what's up?"
"I saw a woman in the yard at midnight last night!"
Jiang Xiaohua saw that as soon as she mentioned this matter, Sister Wen froze, and then sighed softly: "I didn't expect you to find out on the first night. I was thinking about this a few times."
God is telling you again, mainly because he is afraid of scaring you."
Jiang Xiaohua: "Is she your family member?"
Wen Niang nodded: "It's my sister, the eldest daughter of the Wen family! Her name is Wenyuan."
Jiang Xiaohua nodded: "Then what happened to her?"
Wen Niang: "My sister is two years older than me. When I was eight years old and my sister was ten, my mother was injured and could no longer have children. We were the only two sisters in the Wen family. From then on, my sister Wen Yuan lived according to Wen's family.
The head of the family came to train me. I remember that when my sister just turned twelve, she started to take care of the Wen family's business with my father. My sister lived in the outer courtyard. It was difficult for us two sisters to see each other, let alone do business.
When I’m busy, it’s common to not see my sister for two or three months when I’m busy with business matters.”
"My sister has been married since she was a child. She is the friend who came to the mountains I mentioned to you. In fact, you can call him brother. He is from the Ye family. His name is Ye Bai. The Ye family is from Lingnan.
The leader of the Wu clan, speaking of his marriage to my sister, it was a coincidence. My father saved the head of the Ye family once when he was young, so the two families got engaged."
"After my sister got pregnant, the marriage was put on the agenda, but...there were some changes!"
Jiang Xiaohua: "Sister Wenyuan was raised as a housekeeper, can she still marry into the Ye family?"
Wen Niang shook her head: "Hua'er, you are right. It is because of this that the marriage happened. My sister and Brother Ye Bai are in love. Brother Ye Bai said that he would marry my sister no matter what, even if
He wanted to come to our Wen family, but the Ye family didn’t want to.”
yes!
Who would be willing to send their son to someone else’s house to be their son-in-law?
Jiang Xiaohua: "What happened later!"
Wen Niang sighed: "My sister was silent all day long, and then my father compromised. After all, he is his own child. Who doesn't want his child to be happy? My father came to find me."
Jiang Xiaohua said in surprise: "Uncle wants to train you?"
Wen Niang nodded: "Yes, just one month later, my father was very happy and said that I am more suitable for business than my sister. You can also see that my temperament is quite suitable for business, but my sister is not
, my sister is called Frozen Beauty here in Lingnan! My sister has a cold temper."
Jiang Xiaohua exclaimed: "So that's it, sister, then according to what you said, there won't be any obstacles to the marriage between eldest sister Wen Yuan and that brother Ye!"
A trace of sadness flashed across Wen Niang's face: "Yes! Who says it's not! The two families have already agreed on the wedding date, and my sister's dowry is also ready. She is waiting to marry into the Ye family, but on the wedding day
A month ago... there was a fire in the yard where my sister lived inexplicably, and my sister's face was burned like this in the fire."
Jiang Xiaohua felt very uncomfortable when she heard this: "How could such a thing happen?"
Wen Niang: "Yes, no one thought of it!"
Jiang Xiaohua: "Fortunately, everyone is fine!"
Wen Niang shook her head and smiled bitterly: "Brother Ye said the same thing, but my sister...my sister decided to break off the engagement!"
Jiang Xiaohua exclaimed: "Break off the engagement! Finally, there are no obstacles. Why do you have to break off the engagement? Because your face is ruined?"
Wen Niang shook her head: "I don't know either. Logically speaking, my sister is a resolute person and shouldn't be knocked down so easily. Brother Ye and my sister are childhood sweethearts. What's more, until now, Brother Ye
He has never married, but Brother Ye still has my sister in his heart."
Jiang Xiaohua: "What happened next? Did the elder sister and that elder brother Ye still meet?"
Wen Niang shook her head: "My sister has been in her yard every day since her face was burned. She never goes out during the day. She only has one personal maid, Chunmei, left in her yard. Every time Brother Ye asks to see her, my sister doesn't agree! Only
He said that the engagement has been broken off, and that from now on it will be irrelevant whether men and women marry each other."
"My sister has been locked up in the yard for several years. Later, something happened to her father and mother, and she didn't come out. Anyway, she couldn't scream no matter how hard she screamed."
"None of us knew before that she would go out in the middle of the night. At that time, almost everyone was asleep. We only found out about this last year. After people in the mansion told me, I waited for her quietly. She said,
If you want the remaining people to be safe, treat her as dead!"
Having said this, the corners of Wen Niang's eyes became wet.
Jiang Xiaohua patted Wen Niang's hand: "Sister, don't be sad! Why do I hear that there is something going on here!"
