my wife is wonderful

Chapter 19
After eating a bland breakfast, Geng Xingshuang went to Ruan Shi's place first. This time Ruan Shi didn't do needlework, but frowned thinking about something. When she saw her enter the room, she gave her a gentle smile.

"Did you sleep well last night?"

"Well, I have no dreams for a night, it's very sweet."

Geng Xingshuang blessed Fushen, walked quickly to sit next to Ruan Shi, and asked: "Did Mother sleep well? Did Daddy say when he will be back?"

Ruan said helplessly: "It's the time for spring plowing. Last year's harvest in Zhuangzi was not good. Your father said that you can't use your money for family expenses, and you can't use my money for needlework. So this year, as soon as spring begins, I will go to Zhuangzi frequently. On the way, Helian Zhuangtou and Zhuangzi went to several farming veterans to discuss how to increase production this year. I went there twice before, and each time I had to stay for ten days and a half months. This time I went for just five days. There are still a few days."

Ruan Shi said, and suddenly sighed, "But what happened yesterday, I just wrote a letter and asked Li Deng to send it to Zhuangzi. According to your father's temperament, he should be back in the afternoon."

Sure enough, Eldest Geng Geng Wen returned to the mansion in the afternoon.

He first went to Yide Courtyard to greet his father Uncle Anping, and after leaving Yide Courtyard, he went directly to the Main Courtyard to greet Madam Uncle.

When Geng Wen returned to Qingcui Courtyard, his face was a little dark.

"What's the matter? Did the uncle or Mrs. Uncle say something?"

Ruan put down the needle and thread in her hand, got up and made a cup of tea for her husband herself.

Geng Wen tried his best to twitch the corner of his mouth at his wife, his tone slightly lowered, and asked, "Is everything in the letter true?"

Ruan Shi was taken aback by his question, and saw that he put on a face as soon as he entered the door, and his words seemed to be questioning, so she put away the smile on her face.

"Of course it's true. Could it be that I have nothing to make up such a lie to lure you back home? Is it because I'm out of my mind, or because I'm too free and want to fight? It's nothing. I'll make more clothes and embroider a few more purses for our daughter." Wouldn't it be better to fill up the shop and earn more money?"

Seeing his usually gentle wife suddenly put on a straight face, Geng Wen felt that the act of selling a maidservant in the main courtyard had angered her, so he put on a smile and explained flatteringly: "I didn't mean that, I... how could I doubt you, only……"

"Didn't you just have a suspicious tone?"

Nguyen interrupted him.

"no no……"

Geng Wen was originally not good at words, so when his wife interrupted him, he was anxious to explain, but when he saw that his wife was about to speak again, he became more and more anxious, and the more anxious he was, the less he could say anything.

Geng Xingshuang entered the room at this moment, and saw that her father was sweating on his brow, her mother was sitting there, not looking at her father, she just kept a stern face and said nothing, and rushed to greet her father.

Seeing his daughter coming, his wife looked at her with gentle eyes, and Geng Wen was slightly relieved. He was really confused by his father and stepmother, and what he asked was really annoying.

"Dad, did your grandfather say something?"

Geng Wen nodded again and again, "Isn't it? I'll go to greet your grandfather first when I come back. He said that a Tong Fang who died more than ten years ago was actually not dead at that time. The Tong Fang was just sick and sent to Zhuangzi raised her, but Tong Fang was pregnant when she went there, and later gave birth to a daughter. Your second uncle knew about it at the time and reported it to your grandmother. It was just that when the girl was doing the horoscope, the fortune teller said that she Fate is poor, and I can't support the dignity of Miss Bofu, I need to be raised in Zhuangzi until I am 17 years old, and then I will recognize my ancestors and return to my clan, so that I can live a safe life."

Geng Wen sighed deeply, and continued to repeat the words of his father, Uncle Anping, "Your grandfather also said that the reason why Shen Shui worked as a maid beside Sister Bing was because your second uncle couldn't bear her to suffer alone in Zhuangzi, so he found her." I bought Mrs. Tan and asked her to buy the two-year-old Shen Shui when she was buying maids in the mansion. Otherwise, the mansion would not have bought such a young child and needed someone to take care of it. It was Mrs. Tan who took care of Shen Shui back then. "

It's pretty good, I can come up with such a story in such a short time, and it can also portray Geng Cheng as a loving father who cherishes his daughter. The level of this story is really good. It might be a big hit, but it's much more innovative than the frustrated love stories between poor scholars and daughters sold in various bookstores in Ningdu City.

It's just that it's much worse than Brother Qingmo's heart-stirring or weird stories.

No, that's not on the same level, and she shouldn't be compared together. If brother Qingmo knows that she compares his pen and ink with the wicked things done by the second uncle, even if that handsome face is still calm and indifferent, but I will definitely make a note in my heart, and when I encounter a suitable opportunity, I will take the initiative to take back what I said.

"This is a lie, if Jin Bao hadn't heard the truth, maybe I would have believed it." Ruan sighed.

Because the dead Tong Fang of Geng Cheng they mentioned was indeed a real person, and he died more than ten years ago, but the specific year and month, how could Geng Wen, an elder brother, deliberately remember his younger brother's house? As for the Ruan family, she only remembered that Tongfang should have died of illness before the Zhenchang change, and she couldn't recall the exact time.

The number of servants in the mansion has decreased a lot over the years, even if there are those who remember, how dare they question the master's words, naturally the master will do what he says.

"Girl, what are you thinking?"

Seeing that Geng Xingshuang had been silent and seemed to be thinking about something, Geng Wen called out.

"Father, did your grandfather tell you those words just now?"

Although Geng Xingshuang felt that the story was well written, but after thinking about it, he felt that there was something strange about it.

Geng Cheng nodded, "Of course he told me. I already knew the truth from your mother's letter. I knew that Shen Shui was born to Tan Shi's younger sister. Tan Shi was your second aunt's dowry maid, but her younger sister was not." , I just don’t know if Xiao Tan is from a good family, or a servant of the Yao family, or a servant of another mansion, but it must not be the Tong Fang who died of Geng Cheng’s illness.”

Speaking of this, Geng Wen was a little embarrassed. He felt that it was a bit embarrassing to tell his daughter these things, but the real situation of the whole matter was found out by the daughter. In recent years, the daughter not only participated in the big and small things in the family, but also helped to take care of them. idea.

Speaking of which, he and his wife are both of the same kind of brains, many things can only be seen on the surface, unable to think about deeper things, and often suffer a loss without realizing it.

So unknowingly, I will tell my daughter almost everything, and this time is of course no exception.

"Father, this matter has a great impact on me. Don't worry about second uncle and hide it from me."

Seeing his father's embarrassment, Geng Xingshuang spoke emphatically.

"How much influence does it have? Didn't the half volume be redeemed by your uncle? Don't worry, if your grandmother still wants to sell the half volume, I will go directly to your grandfather and ask for the half volume deed to you for safekeeping. Although my grandfather doesn't want to take care of the family affairs, I can always get him to talk when I go to him."

Ruan's face turned away when she heard this, and she wanted to say something, but she was concerned about whether it was the elders or the last uncle in this uncle's mansion, so she swallowed the sarcasm that was about to come to her lips.
