Quick Wear: True and False Life

Chapter 92 The Real Gold Picked Up as a Marriage Substitute 13

Through the conversation, Wei Nan also learned that the aunt's family had parents who were still alive but had separated and lived separately. She had a son and a daughter. The son was married and had a son, and the daughter was also married and had just been diagnosed with pregnancy. There were now five people in the family.

"Grandma, I'm back!" A boy outside the yard shouted excitedly, and then ran in like the wind.

"Why are you covered in mud? Have you been playing by the river again?" The old lady came out of the house when she heard the voice, and asked angrily when she saw him.

The aunt was afraid that the child would not obey and would run to the river. The river was fast and deep, very dangerous, so she was so angry when she saw her grandson covered in water.

"No, I was looking for loaches by the edge of the field and fell into the water." The boy quickly replied when he saw that his grandmother was angry.

After hearing her grandson's answer, the old lady felt relieved. She quickly took him to the yard to fetch water to wash, and then took him back to the house to change clothes.

After changing clothes and coming out, I looked at Wei Nan sitting in the yard and then I remembered the guest who was staying in my house. Look at her memory.

"Miss, I'm sorry. I forgot about it when I saw my grandson." The old lady pulled her grandson and quickly apologized to Wei Nan.

"It doesn't matter, the child is important." Wei Nan didn't care about such things and said with a smile.

After saying this, she saw the child looking over and waved to him, signaling him to come closer. The child didn't know what to do, so he looked up at his grandmother.

"Go! She likes you." Grandma let go of his hand and said.

At her grandmother's signal, the child ran from the door to Wei Nan, stood up, and shyly called out, "Sister."

"What's your name?" Wei Nan touched his head and said softly.

The child's hair is so soft, and feels soft to the touch. There were families with children living around the Wei Mansion before, but unfortunately they were too young and narrow-minded, and they lost interest in the children. They were nowhere near as innocent as this child.

"Sister, my name is Shuanzi."

"Sister, can you be my guide and take us around the village? " Wei Nan asked, taking his little hand.

"Okay! Okay! I know everyone in the village." When the child saw his sister holding his hand, he happily patted his chest with his other hand and promised.

"This is a reward for you!" Wei Nan pretended to take something out of his sleeve, then took out two White Rabbit milk candies with the candy wrappers peeled off, took his hand and put it in his palm and said.

In the backpack, Lingxi and Baixi jumped out when they heard that she was going out. Shuanzi was startled when he saw them, but then he looked over happily.

"Sister, can I hug them?" Shuanzi said with great enthusiasm.

"I'm afraid it won't work. They don't want to be held." Wei Nan said in embarrassment. The main reason was that Lingxi and Baixi themselves didn't want to!

"It's okay. I don't need to hold you."

"Shuanzi, let's go!" After saying that, Wei Nan took Shuanzi's hand and walked out of the yard.

"Auntie, we'll take a walk in the village and will be back soon." When she was almost at the gate of the courtyard, she stopped and greeted the old lady.

"I know. Come back early." The old lady's voice came from the house.

Shuanzi left the yard, put the candy in his pocket, and then happily led people around, from the beginning to the end of the village, and then to the foot of the mountain.

There were many children digging wild vegetables and cutting grass at the foot of the mountain at this time. When two boys saw Shuanzi, they ran over to talk to him and share their results. Shuanzi also shared a piece of candy with them. Seeing the three of them taking a bite and holding it in their mouths, he narrowed his eyes with joy.

Later, Wei Nan brought Shuanzi to block rabbits at the foot of the mountain. He hit them accurately every time and destroyed two rabbit nests at once.

Shuanzi was small, so she asked him to carry only a half-grown rabbit by himself, and the rest should be tied together with straw vines so that it would be convenient for her to carry.

After returning to Shuanzi's home, Wei Nan asked the aunt to kill a large male rabbit, and advised them to keep the rest and raise them themselves. After all, rabbits reproduce quickly and can be raised if they are diligent, so they will not have to worry about meat in the future.

In the evening, the old lady's husband came back and said that the village chief came to tell him that his brother-in-law from his wife's family had fallen, so he asked his son and daughter-in-law to drive him to the town to have his bones fixed, and he would be back later.

Later, the four of them had dinner first. After all, it was quite late. The old lady’s cooking was good, and Wei Nan was quite satisfied with the meal. After a simple wash, she went back to her room, tore the chicken into small pieces and put it on a plate, then lay on the bed to read.

The next day, she got up before daybreak and set off. When she reached a secluded place, she took out the carriage and loaded the trolley, jumped onto the shaft and drove the carriage towards Yanzhou Prefecture.

Outside Yanzhou City

When they were almost at the city gate, Wei Nan jumped off the carriage and looked at the city from afar, which she had not seen for thirteen years. Her mind was still quite complicated.

She felt that the original owner had complicated thoughts. She wanted revenge but was hindered by her filial piety. Now Fang He is still the prefect of Yanzhou Prefecture, but without a large amount of money as a backing, he should not be living a good life!

After entering the city, she asked for a room upstairs in the restaurant closest to the Wei Mansion, planning to go and take a look tomorrow. However, this courtyard was protected by a formation, so there shouldn't be much change, right?

Early in the morning, Wei Nan avoided people and jumped into the mansion. She had not lived here for long, so apart from the overly lush vegetation and the erosion of time, she didn't see much.

In the next few days, she visited teahouses at noon and the prefect's residence at night. After collecting information, she had to sigh that Fang He was still quite capable. Even if he didn't have the Wei family's wealth as a backing, he could still coax the governor's daughter into marrying him, even though she was just a concubine's daughter.

The only two differences between the current residence of Prefect Fang and the one in the original owner's memory are that there are two more daughters of merchants as concubines, and one more son and one more daughter. Although the two concubines were later strengthened to have children, they are particularly not seen by the second wife and are often suppressed and persecuted. Wei Nan guessed that it might be related to the Wei family; second, without the support of the Wei family's wealth, Fang He embarked on the road of corruption.

However, when she was exploring the prefect's mansion, she discovered that a force was investigating Fang He. After careful investigation, she learned that Zhao Chongzhi was investigating a corruption case, and the investigation had already reached Fang He. It would be difficult for him to escape, and his fate would not be good.

Taking all the above into consideration, she only needs to hand over the evidence of corruption and give Fang He and his step-wife Liu Lili some medicine to weaken their bodies. As for the others, as long as Fang He loses, the ending will not be good and they will have to rely on their own abilities to survive.

"Lingxi, where do you think Fang He would hide the evidence of corruption?" He searched the prefect's residence three times with his spiritual sense.

"I don't know either, but doesn't it say that the most dangerous place is the safest?" Lingxi recalled an Internet slang and said.

"The prefectural government office" Bai Xi suddenly said this without any context.

Wei Nan just reflexively thought that it was the women's residence, but after hearing Bai Xi's reply, she agreed. Who would have thought that he hid the evidence in such a bright and rigorous place.

"Bai Xi, how did you come up with this idea?" Ling Xi asked in confusion?

"Didn't you say that the most dangerous place is the safest?" Bai Xi asked back.

"I'm asking you why you think the prefectural government office is the most dangerous?" Ling Xi changed the way of asking the question when Bai Xi didn't react.

"Isn't it dangerous to imprison a group of bad guys?" Bai Xi said with a confused look on his face.

After hearing this, Wei Nan and Ling Xi looked at each other in bewilderment. Is this how danger is explained? Bai Xi was just guessing.
