Chen Jing read these letters from beginning to end again.
His brows were furrowed.
No matter how hard I search for words, I can't find the second surname.
Do you really want to believe that she is loyal?
No......
He would rather believe that the second wife Cai has some weird quirks. Every time she talks about it, her surname is "Chen", rather than that hat.
"Where is your eldest lady?" Chen Jing raised his head and looked at the maid.
The candlelight was dim, and the maid's face was flushed: "Miss? There is only one young lady in the family, Cai Erniang."
Chen Jing was startled: "Only Cai Erniang?"
The maid nodded.
This confused him.
Without the eldest mother, where would the second mother come from?
After thinking for a while, he said: "Take me to other rooms to see."
The maid responded and led the way.
The room to the left of Cai Erniang contains a large amount of gold, silver, porcelain, jade, calligraphy and painting.
On the further left is a large study room.
Chen Jing did not forget to search, but it seemed that no one had used such a good bookstore for a long time. The pages were stuck together and most of them were difficult to open. He also checked the nooks and crannies, but there was nothing suspicious.
On the right is the kitchen. The stove is ashes and has not been used for a long time.
It made him frown.
"Is there a kitchen in the front yard?" Chen Jing asked the maid.
The maid replied obediently: "Yes, there is one."
"Then what's the use of the kitchen in the backyard?" Chen Jing wiped the edge of the pot, and his fingertips were stained with a thick layer of dust.
The maid shook her head: "I don't know."
He turned around and went out, continuing to check.
The outer circle circled the wind and rain corridor, connecting several rooms, and he did not miss any one. These houses have different functions, including one for storing money, food, musical instruments, and one for storing wine.
He didn't let go of the drinks either. He opened the wax seals and took a look.
There are no hidden letters.
A lot of wine seeped out of it, and most of the rooms were just a shallow bottom, or else they were empty and the wine had leaked out.
Check them out one by one.
He returned to Cai Erniang's room, sat down on the bed, and knitted his eyebrows into knots.
The backyard is the residence of the female family members.
Can......
In the entire backyard, there were only traces of Cai Erniang living alone.
Where are the other women?
Not to mention the eldest lady.
Where are Mr. Cai’s wives?
Well, let's assume that he is a passionate person, and if his first wife dies, he will not renew the relationship.
That......
Chen Jing raised his head and looked at the maid.
She stood under the light, her cheeks still flushed.
He asked: "Which room do you usually stay in?"
The maid was startled. This question seemed particularly difficult. It took her a while to answer, "How can we servants have rooms?"
"Sleeping on the floor?" Chen Jing thought of the scavengers he saw in the previous instance.
The maid nodded.
Chen Jing frowned.
He was thinking.
There was a noise outside the door and heavy footsteps.
Cai Erniang was helped into the house by a group of maids.
"Mr. Chen." Her face was as pale as paper, "You have read the letter, and I understand it even through death."
"You really don't believe me."
Chen Jing looked at her in shock.
I was full of questions, but I couldn't even utter a single word.
His vision focused on her belly - a slight bulge.
"What's wrong with your stomach?" He asked, his voice a little distorted.
Just now in the lobby, she still had a flat belly. But now, that rounded arc is too obvious.
Cai Erniang rolled her eyes at him and caressed him gently: "Mr. Chen, what nonsense are you talking about? This is our child."
child?
Cold air emerged from Chen Jing's feet, eroding his legs and flooding into his internal organs, causing goosebumps to appear densely on his skin.
What a joke!
The height of this bulge, five or six months? Maybe six or seven months?
It’s too difficult for a single person to judge this thing.
The exact time cannot be determined, but it cannot be accomplished in one day.
The development of a fetus is not like a bamboo shoot that pops and grows in the blink of an eye.
"I've never touched you." Chen Jing stood up, "I remember it clearly."
Cai Erniang was still stroking her belly: "No one has ever touched me in the Nu family. Chen Lang, I have a deep love for you, and heaven and earth can learn from it."
"This child is the result of me missing you every day."
She lowered her head, her eyes intoxicated and charming.
"I made an agreement with my father."
She went on, her voice gentle and beautiful.
Chen Jing used the tone of the woman who had seen the most happiness in her life.
"As long as Mr. Chen is willing, we will get married tomorrow."
"When the child is born, you teach him to practice, and I teach him to read..."
Chen Jing interrupted her thoughts: "I don't want to. I am your father and brother, so you have to call me uncle."
"I consider you my niece."
"You actually still want to sleep with me?"
Cai Erniang's expression suddenly became sad, and her eyes were filled with bitterness: "Mr. Chen is using such a ridiculous excuse to prevaricate me. Is it because he has a younger sister outside?"
She paused, as if she was mentally prepared in an instant, and said reluctantly: "Even if I have it."
"Take her home and call me sister. I have no problem with that."
"As long as Chen Lang is willing to be by my side."
"Just let me take a good look at you, Chen Lang."
She said, suddenly laughing obsessively.
She's laughing, she's laughing.
There is a kind of happiness from the heart in the smile.
Chen Jing's scalp went numb with laughter.
That evil, twisted feeling invades the brain.
"Because the child in your belly is not mine." He shrank toward the bed, his true energy flowing to the tip of his tongue.
Cai Erniang sighed: "If this child doesn't belong to Chen Lang, who else can it belong to?"
"Mr. Chen, I have a deep love for you, and the sun and the moon can tell me how much I love you."
"Think again."
"Or when the child is born, if you look at his eyebrows and facial features, he will definitely be carved out of the same mold as Chen Lang."
Chen Jing jumped out of bed without saying a word: "I'm going home."
Can't stay any longer.
The atmosphere here is so weird.
He pushed Cai Erniang away abruptly.
Push aside the rouge-cheeked maids.
He strode away from the Cai family.
No one stopped him.
Only Cai Erniang chased him to the door of the backyard and called him: "Mr. Chen, I will invite you again tomorrow."
Chen Jing didn't reply.
When I walked out of Cai's house and came to the clean and tidy wall opposite, I still only had those marks carved by myself.
He frowned and gritted his teeth.
It's been two days.
What about teammates?
Even if it refreshes far away, it should be here by now.
Do you really want to face this kind of situation alone?
The brains are shaking into Erguotou.
Go home and lie down on the bed.
I have no intention of sleeping or practicing.
Chen Jing carefully thought about what he saw at Cai's house today.
So weird.
It’s so evil.
The letters written to "Chen Lang" one after another, and the sachets embroidered for Chen Lang one by one.
As Cai Erniang said, this love can be learned from the sun and the moon.
But her belly...
How could it grow so fast?
And that tone, that laugh.
He thought of Mr. Cai's face, with wrinkles all over it.
Thinking of the faces of the maids, they were all the same red.
Thinking of that bowl of blood-like tea soup.
Thinking of Cai Erniang's bed in the center of the room - that dark red canopy bed.
He suddenly froze and felt a rush of cold air.
Climb off the bed, open the door and walk out.
The streets were deserted.
By the moonlight, he drew on the ground.
Cai Erniang's house, the house next door where gold, silver and jade are kept, are surrounded by a wind and rain corridor...
He froze.
The whole person froze.
I just looked around the houses of Cai's house and didn't notice it.
But now, drawing the floor plan, this layout... isn't it just a tomb?
On the barren ridge.
Jiang Queer and Yu Huanzhen meet again in front of the Cai family gate.
"Have you found the mark?" Yu Huanzhen asked.
Jiang Queer shook his head: "I dug out and looked at the corners on the left and right, inside and outside. There are no marks."
Jade really frowned.
It’s different from what was promised.
And this is the Cai family, but as for their teammates...it's been a day, and it's still just the two of them.
Pfft——
Just as they were thinking about what to do next.
There was a rustling sound in the yard.
They looked at each other and groped towards the yard.
They had investigated this ruins many times, inside and out, and they confirmed that nothing was missing.
What's going on with this movement now?
Teammates are here?
Or is it that the secrets hidden by the Cai family can finally be hidden?
Wait around the screen wall.
The two of them froze, looking horrified.
Jiang Que'er's face turned pale with fright.
The dim moonlight fell down.
It's reflecting.
A hand, like a bamboo shoot after rain, popped out of the soil.
Still a not-so-good-looking hand.
Pulling randomly and wildly.
