The news that "the ninth lady of the Xi family collaborated with Master Tao to kill people" took root in the hearts of the people of Yancheng.
The Police Department conducted an investigation and said that they were "innocent". After hearing this, the people felt a sense of certainty that "I knew it would be like this": it must have been the Warlord's Office who had said hello, and the Xi family wanted to cover up their ugliness.
It was Xi Wenlan who conspired to kill people.
There were several families of similar family status in Yancheng who originally liked Miss Ninth. After all, she was favored by the old lady, so now they all avoided her.
The world is hostile to women in all aspects.
If this happened to the young master of the Xi family, they would naturally say that the Xi family took advantage of their power to deceive others and fabricated lies to deceive the public.
But when it fell on Miss Xi, everyone began to talk about her personally: Miss Xi was so unlucky to have given birth to such a heartless daughter.
In short, a woman's evil deeds and her family members can be forgiven, but her own sin alone cannot be forgiven.
Xi Wenlan was very thick-skinned. He took leave and hid for two weeks, but still appeared in front of people, with the same gentle and sweet smile, as if nothing had happened.
Sheng Zhao and Xi Wenlan conspired, but Xi Wenlan did not accuse her. She felt that Xi Wenlan was worthy of a close friendship, and instead became closer to her. However, they did not meet at Xi's house and avoided Yun Qiao.
Yun Qiao's difficulty far exceeded Sheng Zhao and Xi Wenlan's expectations.
Fourth Master Xi was reasonable and said to Yun Qiao in private: "Wen Lan sometimes doesn't do well. You should be more considerate of her and don't be on the same level as her."
Yun Qiao: "I know."
"I also scolded her." Fourth Master Xi added, "I will not forgive her for this matter."
Yun Qiao didn't say anything after hearing this.
She has always had a good impression of Fourth Master Xi, because the father she imagined should be like Fourth Master Xi.
Fourth Master Xi is not necessarily very ambitious, nor is he very talented or capable, but he is very caring about his family, and at the same time he is gentle and gentle.
Maybe he is not a successful man, but he is indeed a good husband and a very responsible father.
Fortunately for him, he was born in the Xi family and had no worries about food and drink. Therefore, his somewhat weak and indifferent character was a blessing to his family as long as he had no worries about making a living.
"I just hope she can truly understand introspection." Yun Qiao said.
Fourth Master Xi nodded: "I hope so too."
Yun Qiao and Fourth Master Xi have lived under the same roof for more than a year. Neither of them have a familiar personality, and this is the first time that they have never spoken alone.
Maybe it’s because we’ve been together for a long time, each other understands each other’s temper, and recognizes each other’s principles of doing things, so this alone chat was quite pleasant.
Xi Wenlan's incident was much more sensational than Xi Wenjie's incident back then.
However, any news is like chewing sugar cane. No matter how sweet and crisp it is, only tasteless residue is left at the end.
At this time, a student movement broke out in Yancheng.
Banners reading "Oppose 21" were spread all over the streets. The military and police officers wanted to stop them from destroying shops, but they did not dare to beat the students. They were all very busy.
The newspaper's attention also shifted to this major event.
When the "Twenty-One Measures" proposed by the Japanese ambassador to China were accepted, anti-Japanese sentiment surged among the public, and many people wanted to burn Japanese goods.
There were also scattered student demonstrations in various places.
Yancheng had it a few times, but it just didn't happen. Suddenly, student demonstrations blocked traffic, and both the military government and the city government paid attention to it.
This incident became a topic of discussion among everyone after dinner.
Everyone is a little pessimistic about what will happen to our country in the future. Even teenagers know that the Japanese bullied us.
Only then did Xi Wenlan's matter completely disappear.
