Chapter 168 Why is Wei Jinyi here?
Wei Ruo stayed with Mrs. Yuan for a while and then left.
After coming out of the magistrate's house, Wei Ruo got on the carriage and specifically chose a road that would pass through Ronghua Street, because Xu Ji Braised Meat Shop and Sibaozhai Fucheng Store were both on Ronghua Street.
In order to reach Ronghua Street, Wei Ruo caught a glimpse of a familiar figure through the carriage window as the carriage passed through an alley... a
white brocade robe and a jade crown for her hair.
With just a silhouette, Wei Ruo recognized this person as her second brother Wei Jinyi.
But shouldn't the second brother be studying with Old Man Ruan in Huzhou Prefecture at this time? How would it appear here?
After the carriage came out of the alley, Wei Ruo asked Xiumei who was driving the carriage to stop.
After parking the car on the side of the road, Wei Ruo got out of the car.
"Miss, what's wrong?" Xiumei asked.
"I seemed to have seen the second brother just now."
"The second young master? No way, he should be in Huzhou Prefecture now, how could he be in Fucheng, Taizhou Prefecture?" "I
don't know, but I must have read it right. "
Wei Ruo pulled Xiumei towards the alley: "Let's go take a look."
The two walked back to the alley together and came to the door of the house where Wei Ruo had just caught a glimpse of Wei Jinyi.
This house is located in an alley. The door of the house is a bit old. The door panels are old and white, and there are some mottled marks.
She just saw Wei Jinyi entering the house.
"Miss, what should I do? This house looks like a private house. How do we get in?" Xiumei asked.
Wei Ruo whispered a few words into Xiumei's ear.
Xiumei nodded and walked towards the door.
After knocking on the door for a while, the door opened. There was a woman standing inside the door. She was graceful, with enchanting eyebrows and a few strands of hair hanging from her forehead.
His appearance looks a bit quaint, but also a bit arrogant.
The moment she saw the woman, Xiumei was obviously stunned, and she suddenly choked on her prepared words.
Could it be that the second young master did not go to Huzhou to study, but secretly hid his beauty in a golden house without telling the family?
Xiumei was so surprised that her jaw dropped to the ground.
At this time, the woman inside the door spoke: "Little girl, who are you looking for?" "I...I 'm
looking for my lady's cat. My lady's cat just ran out and entered over the wall of your house."
Wei Ruo taught her the rhetoric.
"I didn't see a cat come in. You might be looking in the wrong place," the woman said.
"No, I saw it with my own eyes. Xiaohua must have run in!" Xiumei said firmly.
As he spoke, he looked towards the yard behind the woman, trying to find Wei Jinyi's figure.
"I've been out in the yard and I'm pretty sure no cats came in," the woman replied.
"Let me go in and take a look!" Xiumei said while squeezing her body inside.
The woman quickly tried to stop him.
But Xiumei is a practitioner after all, not only strong but also flexible.
The woman did not expect that Xiumei would have such strength and flexibility. By the time she tried to stop him, Xiumei had already squeezed in more than half of her body.
Just when all her attention was on Xiumei, Wei Ruo, who was hiding aside, had quick eyes and quick hands and got in through the gap.
By the time the woman reacted and shouted to the people inside the door to stop her, Wei Ruo had already run into the yard.
At the same time, the door to the main room also opened, and several men walked out.
Wei Ruo saw Wei Jinyi among the crowd.
Their eyes met, and both of them were filled with surprise.
At this moment, a burly middle-aged man walked towards Wei Ruo fiercely: "Who dares to break into a private house?" "Brother Ke, wait a minute, she is my sister." Wei Jin also stopped the impulsive man middle-aged man.
"Your sister?"
Everyone in the house looked at her in surprise.
At this time, Xiaobei also came out of the house and saw Wei Ruo asking in surprise: "Miss, why are you here?"
The woman who opened the door just now said: "They said they were here to find a cat."
Cat? Wei Ruoke has never raised any cats. Wei Jin also looked at Wei Ruo, and Wei Ruo didn't hide. Not only did he look back openly, there was even a hint of irritation in his eyes.
She lied, was he any better?
Wei Jin also said to everyone: "You all go to the house first."
Everyone nodded, and then quickly entered the house. Even Xiumei was pulled into the house by the woman who just opened the door.
Wei Ruo and Wei Jinyi were the only two people left in the yard.
Wei Jin also walked up to Wei Ruo, lowered his head and looked at her.
"I didn't keep the cat, nor did I throw it away. It's just that I saw someone who shouldn't be here and found an excuse to come in." Wei Ruo said.
"Yes." Wei Jin also apologized, "Sorry, I went back to Taizhou Mansion without telling you." The
apology was sincere, but Wei Ruo became even more angry for no reason.
Looking at Wei Jinyi, he stretched out his fist and punched Wei Jinyi's chest hard twice.
Wei Jin did not dodge or dodge, and allowed Wei Jinyi to beat him. He just said, "Don't beat your hands until they hurt." "
You still know that my hands will hurt?" Wei Ruo glared at Wei Jinyi.
"Yeah." Wei Jin also responded, and at the same time took out a money bag from his waist and stuffed it into Wei Ruo's hand, "Use this to save some effort." The money bag contained some broken silver and copper coins
. Heavy.
Wei Ruo looked at the money bag in his hand and suddenly became angry.
There is no one like him!
"Forget it, I'm not very angry either." Wei Ruodao.
"Well, don't be angry."
"Then have you thought about how to explain to me why you are here?" Wei Ruo looked at Wei Jinyi, waiting for his explanation.
"It's true that I didn't study with Mr. Ruan, but I'm here for some serious business, and I'm not doing anything wrong." Wei Jin also explained.
"Business?" Wei Ruo looked at Wei Jinyi suspiciously.
"Some things related to my late mother." Wei Jin also answered.
After hearing this answer, Wei Ruo stopped asking further questions.
Everyone has their own secrets, and she is no exception.
"That's fine, as long as you don't do your job and hide your beauty here in the golden house." Wei Ruodao.
In fact, when Wei Ruo opened the door of the main room and saw the old men in that room just now, he knew it was not the hidden beauty in the golden house.
No one in the Golden House would hide a whole house of big men at the same time.
"Well, you won't hide your beauty in a golden house." Wei Jin also promised.
"How long have you been away from Huzhou Prefecture?" Wei Ruo asked.
"I haven't been back to Huzhou since the last time we met." Wei Jin answered truthfully.
So long?
"Zanglin layman has been helping you hide it?" Wei Ruo was surprised.
"It's my fault that I've been asking Mr. Ruan to hide it from you all this time. I don't want you to get involved in my troubles." Wei Jin also admitted his deception.
And he chose to hide it from Wei Ruo, just because he didn't want her to be exposed to dangerous things.
Wei Ruo was extremely surprised. Old Ruan actually helped his second brother to deceive him?
