Chapter 380 It’s not the second brother who died.
“The second brother is not dead, that body is not his.” Wei Ruo said firmly.
"No...not the second young master?" Xiumei's eyes widened, her mouth opened wide and she didn't close it for a long time.
"First, I have seen the second brother's body. Although the body is very close to his figure, I am definitely not him, and many details do not match up; second, he has been there more than once during the time he came back this time. He told me that if I get news that he had an accident, I should not believe it because it is a misinformation." Wei Ruo analyzed.
"This... the second young master did say that, but does the second young master really mean what happened this time?"
If that is true, it would be the best. Xiumei is afraid that it is a misunderstanding. It's a joy in vain, but the lady will have to suffer a second time.
"Second brother usually doesn't talk much, and even less nonsense. He said this twice in a row, and he must have an ulterior motive. At first, I thought he said that just as an ordinary reminder, but when I saw the corpse When I think about it and think about what he said before, I feel that something is wrong and it shouldn't be such a coincidence." Wei Ruo analyzed.
After listening to Wei Ruo's analysis, Xiumei felt happy for a while, and then asked: "So, Miss, when you saw the second young master's body on the first day, you judged that he was not the second young master?" "You didn't stop me at first
. When I observed it at close range, I was only 80% sure. Later, during the wake, I carefully observed the body in the coffin, and finally I was 100% sure that it was not the second brother. Of course, Xiaobei's body was also fake." "This
is Why? Why did Jing Guard bring two fake corpses back to lie to us that the second young master was dead?" Xiumei was confused.
"It's probably not the well guard's idea, but the second brother's own idea. But I don't know why the second brother did this. Maybe it has something to do with what he wants to do, or maybe he has other arrangements. Anyway, I'm sure What's more, it's not him who died. He must still be alive and well somewhere."
Then Wei Ruo said to Xiumei, "I'm sorry, Meimei, for making you worry for a few days. I haven't been able to find him these days. I’ll tell you more about this when I get the chance.”
In the past two days, Wei Ruo had been keeping vigil at the mourning hall, but Xiumei was called to the front yard to help because there were not enough manpower in the mansion.
The two have never had a chance to meet each other, and since there are so many people in the house these past two days, Wei Ruo has never had a chance to tell Xiumei the news after confirming that the dead people are not Wei Jinyi and Xiaobei.
Xiumei shook her head: "I'm fine. As long as the Second Young Master and the others don't really get into trouble, that's more important than anything else."
Wei Ruo continued: "Only you and I know about this. I still have to act sad when I go out these days. No matter what the second brother's purpose is, you and I can't ruin his plan."
Xiumei nodded heavily: "Miss, don't worry, I will definitely keep it a secret."
###
The day after the funeral , Wei Yichen sent Xiao Nan to bring Wei Ruo several filled oil paper packages containing preserved fruit cakes.
There is also a jewelry box, which contains some velvet flowers that are popular in provincial capitals.
Most of them were bought by Wei Yichen when he was in the provincial capital. They should have been given to Wei Ruo on the day he returned home, but after Wei Yichen went to see Yun, the bad news of Wei Jinyi's death came.
So three days after the funeral, Wei Yichen had the opportunity to give the things to Wei Ruo.
"Our young master said that the eldest lady has not eaten enough these days and has become thinner. She should pay more attention to her health and eat more." Xiao Nan said.
Xiumei glanced at Wei Ruo, and seeing Wei Ruo nodding, she took the thing from Xiao Nan's hand, "Thank you very much, young master."
Xiao Nan then added, "The young master also asked me to bring a message to the young lady, saying that people cannot die. People who are alive after death should still live well. The second young master will definitely accompany the eldest daughter in the dark. I hope the eldest daughter is safe and happy." "
Thank you for your concern, brother, I'm fine." Wei Ruo replied politely.
"Okay, as long as the eldest lady is fine, I will go back and report to the eldest young master." Xiaonan replied. After Xiaonan completed the task assigned to him by Wei Yichen, he turned to leave.
When she turned around, Xiao Nan saw that Wei Qingwan was there too, and she didn't know if she was passing by or coming here specially.
"I've met the Second Miss."
Xiaonan greeted Wei Qingwan according to the rules, but her tone and expression were obviously not as enthusiastic and respectful as when she faced Wei Ruo just now.
Both he and his young master were tricked by Wei Qingwan and suffered a lot, so it was impossible for him to have a good attitude towards Wei Qingwan anymore.
After saying hello, Xiaonan left.
Wei Qingwan's eyes turned to Wei Ruo and Xiumei, and she saw several large oil paper bags in Xiumei's arms.
Wei Qingwan felt a little dazzling.
How familiar it was. In the past, when her eldest brother came back from an outing, he would always bring her some snacks to eat. There were several oil paper bags filled to the brim.
Today, this habit has not changed, but the person giving it has changed.
When Wei Ruo saw Wei Qingwan, he was ready to close the courtyard door.
Cui He stepped forward and pressed a hand on the door.
"Miss, our young lady came to see you, why did you close the door?" Cuihe pressed the door panel and refused to let Wei Ruo close the door.
Wei Ruo replied: "When I was in the countryside, I would always choose to close the door when I saw wild dogs running towards my door, because wild dogs are inhumane. If you tell them to get away, they will not understand. Not only will they not be able to If I leave, I will pounce on you with my teeth bared, not only staining my clothes, but also tearing my clothes and leaving teeth marks on my body."
Wei Qingwan's face condensed and she said: "It seems that my sister has grown from the second child . I have come out of the grief of my brother's death. I thought my sister and my second brother had a good relationship, but it seems that it is nothing more than that."
Wei Qingruo, who was obviously looking sad and sad two days ago, had the strength to choke up her words today. .
Wei Ruo leisurely replied: "I have a better relationship with my brothers at home than you, my sister. In the past, my eldest brother was tricked and refused to save me, and later my second brother passed away and only ridiculed me. With such a cold heart, I can't help myself." I've only seen this in 'gentle and kind' people like Sister Qingwan."
Wei Qingwan's face darkened, and then she replied coldly: "Sister, there is no need to say such words to irritate me. I owe my success to where I am today." "You mean,
everything you did wrong is all Did I force you to do it?" Wei Ruo sneered.
"If my sister hadn't been pressing harder and harder, why would my situation have become so difficult? I also wanted to get along well with my sister. Did my sister give me this opportunity?" Wei Qingwan asked.
"I forced you? Did I force you to have sex with the third son of the Qi family? Did I force you to refuse to save your eldest brother?" Wei Ruo laughed.
