Traveling through the starry sky just for you, I was a koi in ancient times

Wang Jinyi originally spoke out of inspiration, but she didn't expect that the words came out of her mouth. Thanks to her young age and unclear speech, her mother didn't hear it clearly.

Oops! Too much concentration!

As he blew bubbles while talking, his mother thought it was just the nature of a child. In Wang Jinyi's heart, a little man jumped out and pressed hard on his panicked heart.

Hey! I was scared to death!

Now, seeing his mother asking about his brother's schoolwork, Wang Jinyi felt like watching the fun.

I thought to myself: Oh, "Sanniang" is going to "teach the child".

Golden rays of sunlight sprinkled into the house, bringing warmth and light, illuminating the hall in the upper house.

After lunch, Wang Jinyi slept on the big bed in the main room, the wet nurse returned to the west wing, and her brother and Ouyang Wenche returned to the east wing to do the homework assigned by the teacher.

My mother was copying the manuscript at the desk in the hall, concentrating and focusing.

Qing'er, the head maid of the second room, sat on a brocade stool, busy with embroidery in her hands.

Generally, the mistress's clothes and embroidery were made by relatives or herself. Since the second house had a young lady, there was more work.

The courtyard of the second house was as quiet as usual. The servants walked and did things very quietly, and they went in and out, each busy with their own chores. This was the rule of the Wang family mansion.

The Wang family has always had strict family rules, and they also have strict restrictions on servants. This is a rule passed down by the Wang family of Langya, and it is also well-known. However, because the Wang family has a good reputation, there are still always people who hope to become servants in the Wang family.

The Wang family has a complicated staff with a lot of wives, aunts, and concubines. Compared with other families with intrigues in the back house or masters with bad morals, the Wang family just abides by the rules and requires servants to be strict, which is really nothing.

What's more, being a servant in the Wang family would give you the opportunity to learn to read. Unfortunately, the Wang family had few masters and most of them were not at home, so the Wang family did not often hire servants.

Generally, servants are hired with guarantors! They will not easily let people in.

The sun was setting in the west. On the big bed in the main room of the second courtyard, a pair of big furry eyes were staring at the curtains in a daze, and the little hands were placed on the sides of the face, unconsciously clenched tightly.

: What should I do to find out where Chen Zhiyuan is?

Is he in this world like me? What can I do? My thoughts drifted far away.

The sound of the door knocker broke the silence of the upper room and also caught Wang Jinyi's attention.

In the hall, after a rustling sound, someone lifted the curtain and walked out. Then the voice of father Wang Shuli was heard, and he was explaining something to mother.

Afterwards, footsteps were heard in the yard, as if they were walking towards the east wing. After a few breaths, I heard my father say in front of the east wing door:

"Just stay here and feel free. If you need anything, please ask Wen Dongniang."

Ouyang Wenche followed with some polite words, but his voice was not very clear.

Soon, the curtain of the outer room was raised again, and my parents came in. The maid brought tea, and my mother was helping my father take off his outer robe, and I heard my mother say:

"Stand by the door."

"Yes."

Wang Jinyi thought: Does this mean that we should not be disturbed?

Could it be that these two "Guan Guan Ju Jiu" are going to do something inappropriate for children?

Hello, I'm still here. Do you want me to remind you?

Wang Jinyi's thoughts were all over the place. He looked up at the hall and was about to shout. Outside, his father had already spoken:

"The accident that happened to you and Jin'er was indeed man-made. Someone had tampered with the road in advance."

My father walked to the couch and continued:

"The tree that fell down was also cut down by someone in advance. It was tied with ropes beforehand. When the time came, the ropes were cut and the tree hit the road directly, causing the carriage on the road to overturn."

Seeing that there were no servants in the room, he continued:

"Brother, I spent a few days investigating, but I still don't know why they are targeting you..."

Listening to the conversation outside, Wang Jinyi's ears almost pricked up.

: What's going on? I just arrived and someone is plotting against me? ! Are they plotting against my mother? Or are they plotting against my brother?

Then I thought about it and it seemed like something was not right.

My father personally poured a cup of tea for my mother, handed it to his wife, and said in a gentle voice:

"Don't be afraid, Hui Niang. I won't allow anyone to hurt my wife and children. Don't worry!"

The father held the mother's hand and whispered:

"I checked all the servants in the house. No one has been outside the house, and no one has sent any messages outside. No one has tampered with the carriage in advance."

Having said this, he stood up and sat down next to his wife, hugged her from behind, and comforted her:

"Don't let your imagination run wild. The mansion has set new rules. We will make more detailed arrangements when we go out next time."

He paused again, took out a few documents from his sleeve pocket, and continued:

"This is the 20 mu of top-quality farmland that my mother gave to Madam Xu's family. This farmland belongs to our Wang family. It's a good piece of land. Please keep the contract."

Wang Jinyi heard her mother clearly sobbing.

The document is a complete deed, including: an official deed with the official seal, and a central document with the signatures of an intermediary and two guarantors.

As long as Xu Ma's family went to the government to change the name and register, the Wang family had already completed all the formalities in the middle. The Wang family was not just talking, but actually thanking Xu Ma for her righteousness.

Watching his wife crying silently, Wang Shuli lovingly helped his wife wipe her tears with a handkerchief.

Comfortingly said:

"Don't be afraid, Hui Niang, it's all over. We are still a family, and this is a blessing in disguise. Don't think too much. You are fine, and the two children are fine, that's all!"

He leaned close to his wife and comforted her softly:

"I know you can't bear to leave Madam, and I feel sad too..."

For a long time, the hall outside was silent. The father hugged his wife from behind. The two of them absorbed each other's warmth and sat in silence for a long time...

It was my father's voice, echoing again:

"There is one more thing I think I should tell you. Remember not to tell anyone else."

The mother nodded slightly and snuggled into her husband's arms.

In the inner room, Wang Jinyi thought: I am the third person!

So he covered his mouth with his little hands, stretched his ears and stretched his neck.

: "This Ouyang."

My father pointed to the east wing:

"He is the grandson of old Grand Tutor Ouyang Hongming, and he wants to stay in our house.

My father said that my eldest brother's family was too busy with all the affairs inside and outside the house to entertain guests. He asked them to stay in our yard for the time being, and in Wendong's piano room for the time being.

I will make other arrangements once my father has made his decision."

My father seemed to be struggling internally, and he continued after a pause, "On the day when your car overturned on the mountain road at the southern foot of Lingyun Temple, robbers appeared on the official road down the mountain at the northern foot of the mountain.

All the families who came down the mountain were frightened, and some were injured.”

My father seemed to be deliberately passing it over lightly, and his voice became more casual, saying:

"The Ouyang family was also affected at the time. Several servants died, and it seems that Ouyang Wenche was injured."

Then, he murmured:

"You can't even tell he's injured. This person is truly amazing. His character is incomparable to ordinary people!"

The mother held the father's hand tightly, as if she understood something.

That day.

Wang Wendong, along with a group of servants and vehicles, returned to Lingyun Temple from the scene of the incident.

After receiving the news, the monks in charge of reception got busy.

Someone arranged for the group to move into the meditation room; someone invited a master in the temple who was familiar with pharmacology to treat Hui Niang's external injuries in time; and someone moved Aunt Xu to an empty meditation room.

The monk from the temple was also invited to chant sutras to help Aunt Xu's soul to be reborn.

Another monk rushed to the abbot's meditation room...

Soon, the pilgrims received news that the southern mountain road needed to be repaired, and it was recommended that everyone go down the mountain early. The monk in charge of reception escorted the pilgrims out of the mountain gate.

Ouyang Wenche, who was among the pilgrims, was informed that there was an accident on the southern road down the mountain, and everyone was asked to take a detour down the mountain via the northern slope road.

The northern foothill road had to pass through Qingshupo before it could get to the official road back to the city. At that time, robbers appeared on Qingshupo, and the families who came down the mountain joined forces to repel the robbers.

After listening to his father's narration, Wang Jinyi sorted out his thoughts and the more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong.

: Why did the robbers choose to rob on the side of the official road? Wouldn't it be more difficult to rob if they were closer to the official road? This location was too stupid.

What's strange is that the brainless robbers knew how to block the south road and force everyone to take the north road? !

They were smart, but they robbed many families when they came down the mountain together, instead of intercepting a single family or setting an ambush to ensure the success of the robbery.

It's a contradiction. The robber is smart and naive. He looks stupid, but he is scheming.

It is obvious that there is another purpose for this robbery!

This gang of robbers obviously wanted to kill people and steal goods under the guise of robbery. This was a well-planned and targeted move!
