"What are you doing here if you don't go to study your lessons? Why don't you go back quickly!"

Xu Songchi scolded him sharply and pushed him away with his hands.

Inadvertently, Xu Zongen noticed that the man's hand was holding the hairpin on his mother's head.

Since I haven't seen my mother for a long time, my eyes felt even more sore when I saw that hairpin.

"Dad, you promised me that you would let me see..."

Before the next words could be said, Xu Songchi's mouth was covered.

"You kid, haven't you seen us adults discussing things? If you have anything to do, we'll talk about it later in the evening."

Xu Zongen opened his mouth and wanted to say something more, but was dragged back by his servants.

Liu Yong looked at the expressions of the people around him and vaguely guessed that the people in the house must not know that the child was the daughter of his girlfriend. If so, then things would be really interesting!

"Master Marquis, I will accept the money first. If there is any inconvenience in the future? Come to your house again to bother me."

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to grab the silver, but the guard holding the silver took a step back. Instead, he missed it. When he took another step forward, the guard moved back again.

Even a fool can feel that he is being teased!

Liu Yongyang was extremely courageous. Although he was a rough country man who dealt with animals like pigs and sheep all day long, he was still a man, and men all wanted to save face.

Being teased like this now, if it had been in the past, he would have stabbed someone long ago.

"Master Marquis, what does this mean? Could it be that you have regretted it? Or is it that your government is not even willing to take the money? You can bully an old man like me with the help of many people?"

Wu Dinghou smiled, picked up a piece of silver and raised it to his eyes to look at it carefully.

"Although our Marquis Mansion is a wealthy family, the money is not brought in by the strong wind for no reason. Every penny must have its realized value."

As soon as he said the words, someone brought a pen and ink, and he wrote down the evidence as soon as he picked up the pen.

After the ink on the paper dried, the servant handed it to Liu Yong's hand.

Picking up the piece of paper and looking at it, I saw it said: Based on this, the Liu family has accepted a total of 500 taels of silver and 100 taels of gold. From now on, they will never have any more entanglements with the Wuding Hou Mansion.

"Master Hou, what does this mean? I don't understand."

Liu Yong slapped the paper directly on the table, what a joke! There is absolutely no way he could accept this thing. It is impossible to write a word.

Wu Dinghou was not in a hurry, turned around and sat down, took a few sips of tea.

"Let me ask you, do you have evidence? Do you have any physical evidence? Did you kill my son after seeing him with your own eyes?"

This series of questions left Liu Yong speechless.

Although what he said was plausible, it was just speculation.

If the day came to go to court, he might not be completely sure that he would win.

However, if this is the only result, wouldn't Bao'er's death be worthless?

There must be a way, and there must be clues. It just takes time to investigate again.

And the most indispensable thing for people like him is time.

"Master Marquis, I won't accept the money. We have a long life ahead of us."

After leaving such words, he turned around and walked out the door. Wu Dinghou's fingertips holding the water glass turned slightly white.

I really didn't expect that so much money could not impress him.

It seems that I will not be too comfortable in the future. Looking at the wretched look on Xu Songchi's face, I couldn't help but feel so angry that my liver ached.

"Go to the ancestral hall and reflect on your ancestors! When will you think clearly and come out again!" After saying this, he directly picked up the teacup in his hand and threw it at Xu Songchi.

Xu Songchi didn't move away, and the tea was poured all over him. He knew in his heart that if he hadn't been touched for a while, his father's anger would be difficult to dissipate.

"My son will go to the ancestral hall to claim his room now. Please don't let your father get too angry."

After saying that, he turned around and left.

"Ah Huan! Look at these green mountains and green waters, how beautiful they are! There are even egrets there!"

Along the way, Aunt Mei kept chattering. As happy as a bird.

This was the freedom and happiness she had never experienced in so many years. Even the random little unknown flower on the road was particularly pleasing to the eye.

Xu Huan followed her closely, fearing that she would fall down accidentally. After all, this girl was very playful.

Although he was standing on the boat, he was still dishonest. I always want to be able to fish out the fish in the water with one hand.

Qi Zhixuan shook the oar resignedly, and along the way, he followed like a dog-skin plaster.

Even when sleeping, they didn't dare to sleep too soundly, lest the two of them deliberately lose themselves.

That's not possible, he wants to be with Huan'er all the time.

"You two, come in quickly. It's going to rain soon. What if you get wet and get sick?"

Although Xu Huan and Aunt Mei heard what he said, they didn't pay much attention to him. They just thought that this man was annoying and nagging, and sometimes he really looked like an old woman.

Seeing the two people on the boat pretending not to hear, Qi Zhixuan was not annoyed and continued to concentrate on the work at hand.

"Huan'er, how long do we have until we arrive? We've been on the road for so long."

Aunt Mei dragged her cheeks with her hands, looking at the scenery and talking to the people around her.

I just feel that I am the happiest person in the world at this moment.

"I don't know, maybe it will be soon, maybe tomorrow, maybe the day after tomorrow, in short it will be soon."

Xu Huan was unsure. There were really too many places he wanted to go, and there were too many places he wanted to live in peace.

These days, my head is about to explode, but I still can't think of a perfect method.

"Huan'er, actually I think our days floating on the water are not bad. We can look at the water on our feet, the fish in the water, the mountains in the distance, and the sky further away."

While the two were chatting and laughing, it began to rain.

From small to large.

It comes very quickly, first sneaking in quietly, and then striking out suddenly, catching people off guard.

By the time Xu Huan and Aunt Mei hid in the cabin, most of their clothes were already wet. My hair was also wet and stuck to my scalp, feeling cold and uncomfortable.

Because she was in such a hurry to get out, she didn't bring many thick clothes. It was windy and rainy on the river. After a while, Aunt Mei started to feel hot.

By the time Xu Huan noticed something was wrong with Aunt Mei, his face was already pale and his lips were already turning purple.

"Qi Zhixuan! Find the nearest place to dock! Meilan is sick! We must get ashore quickly!"

Xu Huan felt extremely regretful. If she had known that this situation would happen, she should have listened to Qi Zhixuan's words and brought Meilan back early, so that she would not be exposed to the rain...
