Fortunately, when this house was built, a secret passage was left behind. Cao Peiran had the foresight to do this kind of knife-edge business, and someone might come knocking on his door one day. Three cunning rabbit holes are a must.
Wen Chen escaped from the secret passage, like a lost dog, and his former subordinates did not dare to look for him. Mr. Cao was in charge of those people. Who knows how many of them are truly loyal to him?
As night fell, Wen Chen didn't know where to go. He felt the same as when he was kicked out of the house by his elder sister for the first time.
At that time, he made up his mind to look like a person and make his eldest sister regret it. After a few years, he thought that he was also a person, but reality slapped him hard.
Everything he had was given by his eldest sister. He slapped her twice, and her eldest sister severed ties with him and took everything back.
Do you want to ask big sister?
As long as the big sister says a word, everything from the past can come back.
Wen Chen squatted in the corner, thinking of his eldest sister's cold and disappointed eyes and the blood stains on the corners of her mouth, and he was too embarrassed to beg her.
"Hmph, without your gentleness, I don't believe I wouldn't be able to behave like a human being. I would have to start all over again."
My stomach was growling with hunger, so I found a noodle shop and went in to eat something. I still had some money on me, so I didn't have to worry about it for the time being.
"Boss, cut two pounds of mutton and a bowl of Yangchun noodles, hurry up!"
"Okay, sir, please wait a moment. Do you want to drink?"
Wen Chen felt very happy and immediately said, "Yes, two kilograms."
The wine was brought. Wen Chen drank a bowl first and exhaled a sigh of relief. He thought about who he could ask for help without betraying himself. There were a few people he had good relationships with. Among them was Guo Wantong, the young boss of Wantong Trading Company.
We often drink together and go to flower houses, and we have a strong relationship.
He raised a glass to drown his sorrow, and when the noodles were served, he was already drunk. He ate a few mouthfuls, staggered out of the noodle shop, and fell asleep in the corner, unconscious.
When I woke up again, I was woken up by the cold. I subconsciously touched my sleeves. Oh no, my money bag was stolen. It was raining all night because of the leak in the house!
Wen Chen was helpless and forgot that there was no one around to take care of him, and he would be alone from now on.
First go to the Guo family of Wantong Trading Company and ask Guo Wantong to borrow some money to deal with the emergency.
When the servants of the Guo family saw him, they looked happy and said, "Quick, Wen Chen is here. Some people will come and catch him."
Wen Chen was startled: "You dare to arrest me? Where's Guo Wantong? I'll look for him."
"Don't worry, Master Wen. You will see our young master soon. Should you invite him yourself or let us invite you?"
Where did Wen Chen dare to go in? With their greedy eyes, they looked at him like flesh and bones. The situation was worse than he thought.
Guo Wantong came out, laughed loudly, cupped his hands and said, "Brother Wen, why don't you come home? Brother, I have been waiting for you for a long time and have always cared about you. Judging from your appearance, you must have had a hard time escaping, right?"
Don't worry, come to my place, I promise I won't hand you over, we are brothers, and we are not people who are blind to money."
When he said this, Wen Chen turned around and left. After so many years of hanging around outside, can't you still tell what he is sincere about?
"Stop, arrest him. He was wanted to leave as soon as he arrived. Brother Wei is short of money recently. Brother Wen will definitely be willing to help. If you can't escape this disaster, Brother Wei will help you collect the body."
Wen Chen ran faster, and the escape skills he had practiced for many years came into use, and he finally got rid of the person.
The whole world is an enemy. In such a huge capital, there is no place for Wen Chen to stay. He is finally desperate.
He went to the Wen family to apologize to his eldest sister and beg for mercy. He couldn't help but go to his sixth sister. He only provoked his eldest sister to vent his anger on her. If he thought about it carefully, he was in this miserable situation all because of his sixth sister.
.
However, Wen Chen doesn't hate Wen Wen. It's right for a sister to be a brother's helper.
When he arrived at Wen's house, he didn't dare to enter the familiar courtyard. He could only wait until dark. The dog hole he used to sneak out of the house was still there. After dark, he went in and asked his sixth sister for help.
The day passed quickly, and Wen Chen's hungry stomach growled. The noodles he had eaten last night had long been digested, and his stomach was burning. Even eating one steamed bun was the most delicious thing in the world.
As the night fell, Wen Chen didn't have the time to wait until the night was dark. He relied on his familiarity with the terrain and arrived outside the warm courtyard without any danger.
Along the way, I listened to the servants discussing what happened yesterday. Fortunately, the eldest sister asked Miss Yuan from Prince Jing’s Mansion to come forward. Otherwise, the Wen family’s defeat would be in vain, and they would have to go to the Marquis Mansion to apologize to others. Who would
It's so wicked to throw excrement all over Miss Xu and frame it on her own family. It's so vicious.
Wen Chen finally understood the consequences of his impulse, and it was too late to regret it.
He didn't dare to see Sixth Sister openly and openly, so he had no shame, so he sneaked under the window of the warm bedroom, and just as he was about to knock on it, he heard a conversation coming from inside, and he heard it by accident.
"Sixth Miss, people outside are arresting the Fourth Young Master. The Marquis's Mansion and the County Prince's Mansion have offered a reward of 5,000 taels of silver. Will the Fourth Young Master be in danger?"
This was Zilan's voice. She was still worried about herself. Wen Chen smiled.
Wen Nuan said: "It's useless, who cares what he does? If you don't succeed enough, you will fail. If you deal with Xu Jiaoru, you can find someone to take the blame. They found him as soon as they found him. They have been like this since childhood, and they go as soon as their brain gets hot."
When you do it, you only care about your head but not your buttocks, and you won’t be able to get enough even if you suffer a loss.”
"There is also the Linhuai County Prince's Mansion. Why did he provoke the County Prince's Mansion? Do you think you are invincible? Why don't you go and pull the emperor down?"
Wen Chen felt like he had been splashed with cold water. The familiar voice was yet so unfamiliar. Is this his obedient and kind-hearted sixth sister?
Zilan said again: "Miss, that's not appropriate, is it? After all, the fourth young master is here for you. I heard that the Xicheng Gang has been taken away, and the whereabouts of the fourth young master are unknown."
"Isn't he not dead yet? You still refuse to accept that he is useless. Such a big gang will be punished just because it is said to be taken care of. Why does he have the nerve to say that he is the leader of the gang?
A beggar gang? A beggar gang is not as useless as him. It’s a pity that without one idiot to give money to, I won’t have any money to spend.”
Zilan didn't dare to speak. The sixth lady only cared about her own interests and would not care about the life and death of the fourth young master. Poor young master Xi still didn't know that the sixth sister he was protecting with all his heart was not worth his efforts.
"Stand down. Are you not going to reimburse Fifth Brother for his medicinal materials? What on earth does the eldest sister want to do? She is so cruel to us. Has she discovered something?"
"It shouldn't be. We do things very secretly. The medicinal materials that the young lady got from the Fifth Young Master were sold at high prices. The money was given to Cousin Su to buy a shop and land. He has made a lot of profits these years."
Zilan was a little afraid of Miss Sixth. She had been planning for herself since she was ten years old. She had saved tens of thousands of taels of silver over the years. She was only fourteen years old. She couldn't see through such a deep scheming.
