The heroine of fast time only wants to open

Chapter 267 The Perfumer of the Republic of China 11
Hua Xian did not go home directly, but went to the teahouse in the town to sit for a while.

This is the best place to hear gossip, and sometimes there are even storytellers who tell the gossips and affairs of wealthy families.

Huanxian sat there for a while, then found the storyteller during intermission, secretly gave him a piece of ocean, and asked:

"How much do you know about the Wen family on the first floor of Shouque?"

The old gentleman looked around, quickly put the big coat into his sleeves, and said politely:
"What do you want to know, girl? Although I am not a metaphysician who can calculate and predict the rise and fall of the Wen family, I do know a little bit about the big and small affairs of the Wen family."

Hua Xian said: "Just talk about a few important people in their family and pick out what you think are secrets."

The old gentleman put away his fan, thought for a while and said:

"The old lady of the Wen family only has two sons. The eldest son Wen Hongyi has no ability and is honest and dull. But he married a capable and powerful wife, Ning Shulei. You should know her."

"Later, Ning Shulei married Wen Hongyi to three concubines, and these three concubines gave birth to two daughters and one son respectively."

"I thought Wen Hongyi's backyard would catch fire no matter what. Women are busy, not to mention that Ning Shulei doesn't have a child yet, so she might have to give birth to a child for her three concubines and concubine."

"But what is unexpected is that Ning Shulei not only did not embarrass these concubines, but also took special care of them. As time passed, all the concubines were bribed by her."

"Even the three concubines who gave birth to their children respect her very much. Even the eldest son of the second concubine's wife always says that he is Ning Shulei's son when he goes out and never mentions his biological mother."

Fancy nodded: "She is a powerful woman."

The old man said: "That's right! But the old lady of the Wen family just doesn't like her! She thinks her methods are too powerful and she is full of scheming. She holds the lifeblood of the entire Wen family in her hands."

"Even if Mrs. Wen hates her, she doesn't dare to encourage her son to make peace with her. After all, she is the only one who can manage such a large fortune in the Wen family."

"As for the sick Wen Hongxuan, the second master of the Wen family, although he was somewhat talented when he was young, he became increasingly weak after an illness. In the past few years, he has even been unable to get out of bed."

"However, he does have a smart son. Although he is only five years old, he went to a foreign school as an exception. The teachers who taught him all said that he is extraordinary."

Having said this, the old gentleman shook his head with regret:
"But I heard that the child was lost in Chongfu Temple a few days ago. He has not been found yet. It is likely that he was abducted to the south by human traffickers."

"It's such a pity. We can only say that Wen Hongxuan has committed too many sins, and retribution has come."

Hua Xian flashed his eyes and asked, "What has this Wen Hongxuan done?"

The old gentleman knocked the fan in his hand and smacked his tongue:
"It's too many to mention! The most criticized thing is that he is very lecherous. Three of his six concubines were forcibly brought into the house by him. They are all girls from decent families. If they don't agree, he will force the girl's family to Commit suicide by jumping into the sea.”

"In the end, everyone died, and the girl married him wearing a sackcloth and a filial piety. Isn't this an evil act?"

The old gentleman sighed.

Hua Xian frowned, thinking of the little brat Wen Chengwang.

With a father who has such bad records, don't inherit anything bad.

Afterwards, the old man talked about some of the Wen family's concubines' preference for privacy, such as which concubine smoked heavily, which concubine liked to listen to operas, which young man she had an affair with, etc.

After leaving the teahouse, Hua Xian probably had a detailed understanding of the Wen family.

She had a hunch that the plot would definitely develop towards the Wen family.

Yuanle County is too small and too remote. The real big shots have not yet appeared, and the male protagonist has not even seen his shadow.

Huanxian returned home and found that Jiukangtang had sent someone again. The second sister Li Zhucui was not there, but she saw a package of things.

Wang Guqiu said it was something Hua Xian ordered to buy before.

The package contained a package of braised pork and several small packages of loose candies.

Hua Xian glanced at her and knew that this girl was not greedy for money and could still be disciplined.

During lunch, Hua Xian gave the little girl and brat a braised chicken feet each.

Due to his good upbringing and table manners since childhood, Wen Chengwang always chews his meals carefully unless he is extremely hungry.

He had just taken a few bites politely, and when he looked up, he saw that Li Zhuhuan had finished eating and was looking at him eagerly.Wen Chengwang choked, neither eating nor not eating.

Hua Xian had to give the little girl another black-bone chicken scratch, which was a bit dark.

Li Zhuhuan held it in his hand, looked at it for two seconds, looked up at Hua Xian and said:
"Sister, have you turned off the lights?"

Fancy: "."

Wen Chengwang said: "Idiot! This is a black-bone chicken! The black-bone chicken is black!"

Li Zhuhuan nodded with a vague "Oh" and suddenly smiled and said to Wen Chengwang:
"Brother, you know so much!"

Wen Chengwang was stunned for a moment and cursed angrily: "Idiot!"

Li Zhuhuan didn't care, he ate it happily, his eyes crescent moon.

In the afternoon, I followed Wang Guqiu to spread some fresh spices on the roof to dry them at home.

The Li family bought unprocessed and dried spices and herbs from some medicine farmers, and they needed to process them themselves.

This project was very large, and by the time they finished laying out more than [-] kilograms of mint leaves, night had fallen.

Hua Xian casually found an open space on the roof and lay down to rest, leaning on his arms and thinking about something.

This little brat Wen Chengwang must have uncovered something shady or discovered some secret about Ning Shulei.
Only then would he be hunted down by Ning Shulei.

Otherwise, with Ning Shulei's methods, Wen Chengwang would have no chance of being born.

What the hell is it?
It is impossible to know [-]% of it from the mouth of a little kid.

Although this kid is young, he is very assertive. If he really doesn't want to say anything, no amount of coercion will work.

We can only try using two fragments to see if there is any relevant information on the fragments.

After much deliberation, Huanxian decided to start with the young monk Konger.

You are young and easy to deceive.

Lying down, the younger sister Li Zhuhuan also climbed up to the roof, leaning next to her naturally and sticking to her.

Wen Chengwang had been suffocating in the house all day, and he only dared to come out for some air at night.

Seeing this, he climbed up the ladder to the roof and lay down two or three meters away from the Li sisters to enjoy the breeze.

As soon as Li Zhuhuan learned to count, he raised his head and counted the stars one, two, three.

After counting, she suddenly asked Hua Xian:
"Sister, if I count the stars, are they counting us too?"

Hua Xian was used to some of her childish words and was just thinking about how to answer this question.

Wen Chengwang, who was not far away, suddenly said: "Idiot! Stars are just stones! Stones can't count!"

Li Zhuhuan looked at him in surprise and said, "Why can that stone blink?"

Wen Chengwang thought this question was stupid:

"That's not blinking! It's the stars' light being refracted unevenly in the atmosphere!"

Although Li Zhuhuan didn't understand, it didn't hinder her admiration. She clapped her little hands and said:
"Brother, you are so awesome! You know more than my eldest sister!"

Fancy: "."

　Today's update, after a few days of busy work, it will be stable, everyone can support it, entering the Wen family is the beginning of the big plot.
