Chapter 657, Outer Room
After Yan Zhigao was arrested, the old lady Yan became acutely ill. Although she had been Lao Fengjun for a few years, the old lady had never experienced such a major incident. Seeing her son had an accident, she collapsed in a hurry.
Mrs. Li was also very panicked. These years, the Yan family has been going smoothly. She is in charge of the small area of the Yan family’s back house. Regarding matters outside, even if she wants to manage it, she is powerless, so she can only pin all her hopes on it. The eldest son.
Yan Zhiyuan saw Yan Zhigao being taken away with his own eyes, and he also heard Envoy Yuan Buzheng say that the military situation was delayed and the Yan family wanted to copy the house and exile. At this moment, the house was full of rushes, but there was a useful way. Have no idea.
Yan Zhiqiang only takes care of the fields and Zhuangzi of the Yan family on weekdays. Wherever he would deal with such a thing, he could only look at Mrs. Li and Yan Zhiyuan in a hurry.
Other female family members and juniors have experienced fewer things, and even less noticed.
Han Xinran and Zhu Qiyun were a little calmer. One came from the earl’s mansion and had their knowledge there; a young lost his father, whose ability to bear is far surpassed that of his peers, but both of them are brides and have just joined the Yan family. Even if they have ideas, they are not easy to publish. .
When Daohua came over, she saw a house full of family members who were anxious and at a loss but could do nothing.
"Big sister, are you back?"
Han Xinran first saw Daohua standing at the door.
Daohua walked into the house, glanced at the crowd, and pondered for a moment, then said to Yan Zhiqiang: "Uncle San, father and eldest brother are not there. The people in the house are panicked. Tonight, I will bother you to lead the nursing home to take good care of the house. There are a lot of people inside, don't let them make trouble, it's best to patrol a few times at night."
Yan Zhiqiang nodded quickly: "I will call the nursing home to patrol right away. I must look after my home."
Daohua smiled and nodded: "Okay."
The other people in the room watched Yan Zhiqiang walk away quickly, and then looked at Daohua, who was calm-faced, and their anxiety and panic were somehow relieved.
Daohua looked at Yan Zhiyuan again: "Second Uncle, I heard that after the grain was loaded on the ship, my father gave you the task of guarding. Is there anything like this?"
Yan Zhiyuan sat down when Daohua entered the room. Hearing Daohua's question, he nodded immediately: "There is such a thing." As he said, he frowned, "Yiyi, what are you asking? Meaning? You don't think I lost the food, do you?"
The smile on Daohua’s face remained unchanged: "Second uncle, don’t worry, I just want to understand the situation. 100,000 shi of grain is not a decimal. If it is possible, you also hope to find it back."
Yan Zhiyuan looked a little better, but still couldn't help but muttered: "There are many people who know the location of the food ship, who knows who the eldest brother told him."
Taohua directly ignored this, and continued to ask: "Second Uncle, since you are responsible for guarding the grain boat, have you been there all the time?"
Yan Zhiyuan immediately said: "Of course." After finishing speaking, a trace of guilty conscience crossed his eyes.
Yan Wenjie on the side squeezed his wife's hand tightly.
Zhu Qiyun shook the past, with worry in her eyes.
Daohua looked at Yan Zhiyuan quietly: "Second Uncle, are you sure you haven't left?"
I don’t know if it’s because of a guilty conscience, Yan Zhiyuan stood up abruptly and said sharply: "Of course I have never left, Yiyi, are you interrogating your second uncle?"
Everyone else in the room was taken aback.
Daohua’s face remained unchanged: "Second Uncle, I’m just confirming the problem. As far as I know, all the servants guarding the grain boat have been killed."
As soon as said this, the faces of everyone in the Yan family changed.
A trace of panic appeared in Yan Zhiyuan’s eyes, yes, if he had been guarding the food ship, how could he be standing here?
Sun caught a glimpse of Yan Zhiyuan’s face, and immediately understood that her husband had lied, but still stood up and looked at Daohua dissatisfiedly: "Yiyi, it sounds like your second uncle is okay and you are disappointed."
"Fortunately, it was convenient for your second uncle to go midway, otherwise." At this point, Sun choked up and fell into Yan Zhiyuan's arms and sobbed, "If there is something in the head, I will not live."
After hearing this, Yan Wenjie, Yan Yihuan and Yan Yile also became scared.
Yan Zhiyuan saw that Sun had helped her lie, and patted her on the back stiffly.
Mrs. Li glanced at her daughter who was wondering what she was thinking, and said, “Okay, don’t cry. The second brother is okay because the ancestor is blessed. Mother is still resting inside. Don’t bother her.”
Sun knew that it should not be troublesome at this time, wiped the tears from the corner of his eyes, and did not continue crying.
Daohua didn't say much. Seeing that Mrs. Li's eyebrows couldn't hide her tiredness, she said to Han Xinran: "Sister-in-law, please help your mother go back to rest, grandmother has me here."
Han Xinran quickly looked at Mrs. Li.
Mrs. Li shook her head and said: "I don't know what's going on with your father, how can I sleep."
Daohua: "With the eldest brother helping Zhou Xuan, father will be fine. Mother should go back to the room and rest. You have to watch at home."
Ms. Li raised her eyes to look at her daughter, seeing that her daughter did not have much panic in her eyes, and then she remembered that her daughter's identity is different now, and her heart was suddenly determined: "Okay, I will go back first."
Han Xinran looked at her mother-in-law in surprise, not understanding why she suddenly changed her attention.
Daohua looked at the others: "Everyone is gone, too." After speaking, without explaining anything, she went straight into the inner room to see the old lady Yan.
The old lady Yan woke up early, and she heard all the words outside, and when she saw her granddaughter come in, she wanted to get up.
Daohua hurriedly stepped forward to support her: "Grandma, you lie down."
The old lady Yan took Daohua’s hand: "Your father"
Daohua smiled and said, "Father is fine. If there is no accident, he can go home tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. The envoy Yuan Buzheng took his father because he lost his rations. Now that the granddaughter is supplying it, he has no reason to keep his father in check. NS."
Hearing this, the old lady Yan was relieved, and then asked again: "You just asked your uncle like that, did he do something?"
Daohua soothed: "The granddaughter just doesn't understand the situation. Ask your second uncle to find out. Grandmother doesn't want to think about it."
The old lady Yan nodded and didn't ask much. After a while, she suddenly sighed.
Her son, she understands that every time the second child makes a mistake, he will bite others back because of his guilty conscience. What did this rebellious son do?
After coming out of the old lady’s yard, Yan Wenjie remained silent.
Zhu Qiyun poured a cup of tea and handed it to him, then sat quietly with him.
After a while, Yan Wenjie said: "You said that the older sister asked Dad that way, did you suspect what Dad did?"
Zhu Qiyun: "I think the older sister asked her father, maybe she really just wants to know the situation."
Yan Wenjie looked at Zhu Qiyun suddenly, with uncertainty in his eyes: "Qiyun, do you think the loss of rations is really related to Dad?"
Zhu Qiyun was startled, and immediately denied: "It's impossible. No matter how confused my father is, he can't do anything to harm the Yan family." The uncle is the pillar of the Yan family. He is about to fall, and it will not do the second room at all. She I don't think her little calculating father-in-law would do such a stupid thing.
Yan Wenjie also thought it was impossible, but he had no bottom in his heart. He was silent for a while, took a deep breath, and then seemed to have made some determination: "Qiyun, you go to your grandmother's yard again to raise your father to the outside room. Tell the elder sister."
"The reason my mother made up casually before is simply untenable, letting everyone know that Dad left to see the outer room, it is better than being suspected of losing the army."
Zhu Qiyun looked at Yan Wenjie: "Are you sure? If this matter is known by the family, my mother may be the first to make trouble."
Yan Wenjie nodded and sneered: "Father's outer room is more than three years old. Sooner or later, this matter will cause trouble. It will be better sooner or later."
Zhu Qiyun saw that Yan Wenjie had made up her mind, so she stopped talking. In fact, the first time she knew that her father-in-law had an outside room, she felt that she should inform her family.
"Girl, the mistress is looking for you."
Daohua sat on the bed with the old lady Yan, watching her go to wash after she fell asleep, Zhu Qiyun came over.
Daohua was surprised, and quickly walked to the outside room: "Second sister-in-law, what's the matter?"
Zhu Qiyun nodded, looked inside, and asked in a low voice: "Is the old lady asleep?"
Inaba nodded: "Yeah."
Zhu Qiyun let go, hesitated for a while, and looked at Daohua with some embarrassment: "Big sister, let me tell you something about your mate." As a daughter-in-law, she was really hard to tell about her father-in-law's raising the outside room. .
Daohua’s eyes flickered: "Second sister-in-law, please tell me, I’m listening."
Zhu Qiyun: "The father-in-law has an outer room outside, and he also gave birth to a son. He is almost three years old now. When the uncle asked his father to guard the food boat, the father-in-law left. He left to see the outer room and Her son."
Hearing this, Daohua was surprised.
She believed that her second uncle would not do anything to harm her father, but he had a problem with him. This was for sure, but she did not expect it to be such a problem.
Daohua was silent for a while, and looked at Zhu Qiyun: "Thank you for your second wife for telling me about this. You go back and tell your second brother. I asked your second uncle today. I didn't mean anything else. I just wanted to know more about the situation. Then I lost my 10th. Wanshi had retrieved the grain, and he never suspected that his second uncle would harm his father."
Zhu Qiyun immediately said with a smile: "Your second brother knows this, but we think we should let the family know about the father-in-law raising the outside room."
Ina Flower nodded: "I will find a chance to tell my mother about this."
Zhu Qiyun didn't say any more, and left with Daohua.
As soon as she left, Daohua was silent for a while, and then sent someone to find Yan Shouhou: "Call Cao Chuan and Baldou, and focus on the outer room of the second uncle."
