There is space for the married man

Chapter 106

Before Youjia's housewarming banquet was held, the sky prison where everyone in the Xu family was held was flooded at night, and more than a dozen criminals died. Originally, the people in Dali Temple suspected that someone deliberately set fire to try to rob the prison, but in the end they burned the Xu family to death. An insignificant person, and the rest are there.

The next day was the execution day of the Xu family, together with several main party members, they were pushed out of the Meridian Gate and beheaded for public display.

"I think this fire is very strange." An Yinheng always felt that there was something he had overlooked in this matter, and he specially sent people to watch the execution, and his people saw Xu Shangshu's head fall to the ground.

You Jingshu frowned slightly, and said, "Has the body been checked?"

An Yinheng shook his head and said: "Concubine Xu Gui hanged herself in the cold palace last night. The emperor took pity on her and ordered the Xu family to be buried."

"Hang yourself?" You Jingshu's brows were tightened even more. If he was just suspicious of the dungeon leaking, now he can be sure that there must be something wrong with it.

"Find someone to take a look." You Jingshu's eyes darkened, and he said to An Yinheng.

"What are you looking at?" An Yinheng didn't realize what You Jingshu meant.

You Jingshu tapped the table with his slender fingers, his eyes were calm, and he said, "Look at the corpse."

An Yinheng said in astonishment when he heard the words: "But he has already been buried."

"Then dig it out." You Jingshu's voice was calm.

However, An Yinheng's scalp felt numb, and he swallowed with difficulty, "This...isn't that good."

You Jingshu stared quietly at An Yinheng with his changing eyes, and spit out a word cleanly, "Dig."

……

Wen Lang's new store finally opened under the eyes of everyone. On the opening day, many customers were welcomed, some were curious, some came here because of the reputation, and some were invited by Wen Lang to visit the shop.

For example, Meng Xijue and others, and those wives, ladies and brothers who Wen Lang gave gift boxes to.

It can be said that as soon as Wen Lang's new store opened, it attracted the attention of the whole Pingcheng. The dessert shop opened first, followed by hot pot restaurants, barbecue restaurants, and roasted seeds and nuts stores. Constantly estimated that Wen Lang was alone.

And the name Wen Lang was also accompanied by the thriving business of these shops, and quickly spread throughout Pingcheng.

As the housewarming banquet approached, news suddenly came out from Pingcheng that Master Wen of the Wen family was ill, and it was said that he was mad at his married brother.

"Then Master Wen is not seriously ill. I heard that he has been staying at home recently. I guess the emperor will be alarmed."

"So serious? What did that brother do to make his own father so angry?"

"Can you not be angry, Mr. Wen's brother and his husband's family live not far from Mr. Wen. I heard that they have been back to Pingcheng for so long, but they have never returned to their mother's house. His parents bow down Gui, put down your face and write to him, asking him to go back to his mother's house, but he didn't respond at all, even his younger brother came to invite him, and directly turned his younger brother away. It's not easy."

"So evil? You really raised a white-eyed wolf. If you want me to say that this kind of person is dead, he will be clean."

"Yeah, such a brother who doesn't recognize his six relatives, I'm afraid his conscience will be eaten by dogs."

"What's that brother's name? Which family is your husband's? If I run into him tomorrow, I'll definitely spit on him."

"Don't tell me, you must have heard of that brother's name. He is the boss Wen who opened a new shop. His husband's family is a wanderer who was demoted for corruption and bribery. It really isn't a family, and he doesn't enter a family."

"What?! I went to eat Wenji yesterday. It was delicious. It was the first time I saw the food there. I also saw Boss Wen. It didn't look like what you said. He was a white-eyed wolf. ah."

"Oh, it's scary to know people and face but not heart."

"I heard that You's family is going to hold a housewarming banquet, but they didn't invite Wen's family at all. After all, they are related by in-laws, so they can really do it."

"Eh? Why do I remember that it was the Wen family who first apologized to the You family? Back then, the boss of the You family and the daughter of the Wen family had a marriage contract since childhood. Later, when something happened to the You family, the Wen family quietly replaced their brother with their daughter. It's normal for you to marry the boss of the You family, and the You family will be angry and don't want to associate with the Wen family anymore."

"Is there such a thing? Then the Wen family is too much, it's just making the situation worse."

"Even if the You family did something wrong, that Wen Lang was an idiot back then. Marrying You Jingshu is a tall order, so what right does he have to blame his natal family? What's more, blood is thicker than water, so it's impossible to just stop it. "

"It's also the same reason, and I think Wen Lang and You Jingshu are living a good life now. The couple are loving, one is not stupid, and the other is not disabled. It's all a family and there is no need to hold grudges like this."

For a while there were more and more comments about Wen Lang's unfilial piety, and some people even remembered why Youjia was demoted in the first place, saying that they are so small-minded, and that corruption and bribery must not be groundless.

Even the emperor was alarmed and recruited Wen Lang and You Jingshu into the palace.

You Jingshu took the opportunity to sue Wen Shilun for pretending to be You Mingyuan's life-saving benefactor, seeking benefits for many years.

The emperor didn't expect such a thing to happen, he thought that You Jingshu was looking for a reason to take revenge on Wen Shilun, but You Jingshu actually had witnesses.

Song Lingwan sorted out the Wen family's gifts that their family had given over the past ten years. When converted into silver, it was still a large sum of money, not counting Youjia's mental damage fee. The You family made a marriage contract, if there was no savior, You Jingshu and Wen Pingting would have never been able to make a marriage contract, not to mention the Wen family later resorted to cheating.

Now spreading rumors in Manping City to damage the reputation of Wen Lang and the Youjia family is really bad behavior.

Wen Shilun, who was originally lying at home, triumphantly preparing to watch Wen Lang and Youjia drowned by spit stars, was suddenly summoned by the emperor.

Wen Shilun had no choice but to rush to the palace. He originally gave money to summon his father-in-law to find out some news, but the little father-in-law knew that Wen Shilun's black gauze hat might not be safe, so how could he accept his money? .

Seeing the father-in-law's cold face, Wen Shilun's heart skipped a beat, wondering if the emperor knew about his pretending to be sick?

impossible.

Wen Shilun's heart began to beat, until he reached the main hall, he saw Wen Lang and You Jingshu standing there, and he breathed a sigh of relief. Guessing that the emperor was here to help him ask the crime, he didn't have time to breathe a sigh of relief. Saw a familiar face.

This long-lost face for 20 years.

He looked at Jiang Kui in astonishment, his expression flustered, "Why are you here?"

As soon as Wen Shilun asked, he immediately understood, and quickly lowered his head.

It's over, what happened back then was known to You's family, and now not only You's family knows, but the emperor also knows.

"Wen Aiqing, do you recognize this person?" the emperor asked with a sullen face.

Wen Shilun was flustered by the emperor and stammered to deny it: "No...no..."

"Huh? Aiqing should think clearly, the crime of bullying the emperor is a death penalty." The emperor's voice was cold and stern, and Wen Shilun's legs trembled in fright.

"Return to Your Majesty... I know you." Wen Shilun dare not admit that his behavior just now has revealed that he knows this person, and if he doesn't know him, it's not a knife edge.

"According to what this person said, he rescued you, You Mingyuan and others from the water 20 years ago, is it true?" the emperor asked.

Wen Shilun wanted to quibble, but he heard Jiang Kui say: "Your Majesty, Caomin is from Yangcheng. At that time, when there was a storm, it was Caomin and a few men from the same village who rescued those who fell into the water. Caomin remembered that there was such a Mr. Wen, after waking up, Mr. Wen said that he can take care of Mr. You who is in a coma, so I left, and the fellow villagers of Caomin can confirm that Caomin's words are true."

Every word Jiang Kui said made Wen Shilun shudder. At the beginning, he and You Mingyuan were on the same boat. On the boat, he noticed that You Mingyuan was very knowledgeable. The number one scholar only wanted to sell You Mingyuan's favor, and if he became a colleague in the future, he could also take advantage of it.

Later, You Mingyuan became the number one scholar in high school and became the prime minister. He sighed in countless nights that it was the wisest decision he had ever made.

He never thought that paper can't contain fire, and how many benefits he made by taking advantage of it at the beginning, now all these will come back to him one by one.

Wen Shilun had no room for sophistry, and in the end he was dismissed due to his misconduct and moral corruption, and was asked to return the gift from You Jia and compensate for mental damage. Of course, this was proposed by Wen Lang and You Jingshu.

Originally, I wanted to cheat Wen Lang, but I didn't cheat and I was dismissed. The things that Youjia gave back were all high-quality, except for some decorations and the like, all that could be used was used up, so I had to convert it into silver Together with the compensation, it was given to the You family. Now the Wen family's vitality was seriously injured, and they had to start shrinking their clothes and dieting.

Wen Pingting and Wen Chenghui spent money like water on weekdays. After a few days, they couldn't take it anymore and ran to their grandfather's house. Zhou Yuelan also wanted to go back to her mother's house, but for the sake of face and her husband's face, she naturally wouldn't do that. He could only endure it, thinking in his heart that Wen Lang and You Jia must pay the price.

Wen Shilun was not sick at all, but under successive blows, he was really sick this time, Zhou Yuelan had to serve him at the bedside, completely unaware that they had become the laughing stock of Pingcheng now.

"This Wen Shilun is really stealing chickens and reciprocating rice. It's too disgusting. He pretended to be sick and ruined his brother's reputation. His heart is too vicious."

"Can you do things like letting people bully your brother without being vicious? When Wen Lang was still a fool, I heard that he didn't care about Wen Lang. She's as thin as a bamboo pole, and now she's married to a good man, she's capable, she's started a business, she's been knighted by the emperor, and the Wen family has posted it, how can there be such a good thing in this world."

"Speaking of which, how did Wen Lang get back to normal? How did You Jingshu's legs get better?"

"Yeah, maybe I met a fairy in the countryside?"

"Yes, yes, I have always been curious about how the two of them got better."

"Isn't the county magistrate's house going to hold a housewarming banquet tomorrow? My brother's family is invited. I'll let him remember to ask about it tomorrow."

"Then you must remember, remember to tell us if you ask."

"sure."

Not only did the housewarming banquet in the county magistrate's mansion not fail, but it also attracted a lot of attention because of it. Those who did not receive the invitation even tried to grab a spot to get in.

Wen Ji had an endless stream of customers every day, and Wen Lang counted the money till he was soft.
