Early the next morning, Liu Qiaomei contacted Ruan Shengwen. Two luxury cars were waiting in front of the hotel, but except for the two drivers, Ruan Shengwen was not seen.
Our family came to visit, but Ruan Shengwen didn't come to pick us up in person. Although Liu Baye didn't say anything on the surface, I could see that his face was very ugly.
Ruan Shengwen is a polite and wealthy man, and such disrespectful behavior is not true. Could it be that he has given us a showdown as soon as he entered his territory?
"Auntie, why didn't our future uncle come to pick us up?" Liu Tingting asked without fear of causing trouble.
Liu Qiaomei's expression was a little helpless, and she immediately dialed Ruan Shengwen's number again, "Hey, Shengwen, didn't you agree before that you would pick us up in person? Why didn't you come..."
Liu Qiaomei looked very unhappy, so her tone of voice was a bit stiff. She originally had a complaining expression, but it soon turned into an expression of shock.
"What! How could your parents...how could...!"
After hanging up the phone, Liu Qiaomei looked lost and almost fell down. Fortunately, Kestrel and Liu Tingting were by her side and hurriedly supported her.
"Qiaomei, what's going on? What happened?" Liu Baye asked eagerly.
Liu Qiaomei stabilized her body and looked at everyone slowly and said, "Sheng Wen said...his parents are dead...!"
Hearing this news, all of us were shocked for a while.
Ruan Shengwen once said that his parents were in poor health, so our family took the initiative to come here to get engaged. However, we didn’t expect that we had just arrived in Anyang and the in-laws hadn’t met yet, so we suddenly heard such explosive news. , and one death followed by another death really made everyone feel like they were in a dream.
After something like this happened, there was no reason to pick on someone who was not present. As soon as Liu Baye waved, they all got in the car and went straight to Ruan Shengwen's house.
About forty minutes later, the car stopped in front of an ancient house in the suburbs of Anyang. The word "Ruan House" was written in gold on the plaque on the double-ring gate of the house.
The person who came out to greet us was not Ruan Shengwen, but Ruan Shengwen's second uncle, a thin middle-aged man with tears in his eyes. After seeing us, he didn't know whether he was happy or sad.
"Brothers in law, what exactly happened? How could my in-laws..." Liu Baye asked.
Ruan Shengwen's second uncle raised his hand to wipe the tears from the corners of his eyes and said: "I don't know about this. Last night, my eldest brother and sister-in-law, I and I were discussing Shengwen's marriage. Not to mention how happy they were, but who knows today? Early in the morning, the two of them actually hanged themselves in the house. What on earth could they be so confused about...!"
Ruan Shengwen's second uncle began to cry bitterly as he spoke. Not to mention how sad he was, he was almost losing his temper.
We definitely couldn't sit idly by. After a series of comforts, Ruan Shengwen's second uncle finally relaxed a lot, and then he welcomed us into the house.
Ruan's house is a large, antique-style house with stone bridges, pavilions, rock mountains and lotus ponds. Although it is roughly the same style as Chen Guishou's residence, it is definitely not comparable to Chen Guishou's small courtyard. , judging from the degree of patina, it is at least a product of the Ming and Qing Dynasties. It is still standing today, which is really rare.
We were all amazed by Ruan Zhai's aura, but no one showed his expression on their face, and all of them had frowns on their faces.
After entering Ruan's house, we still didn't see Ruan Shengwen. Ruan Shengwen's second uncle said that the incident happened suddenly. He also called the police immediately, and then called Ruan Shengwen. Ruan Shengwen also suddenly turned back on the way to pick us up. At this time, he was still cooperating with the police investigation at the police station.
After such an incident, there was no time to worry about drinking tea and chatting, so Ruan Shengwen's second uncle quickly asked someone to arrange a room for us so that we could check in and rest first.
The matter of getting married is a matter for the elders like Mr. Liu Ba. We, the younger ones, just get up in numbers to show the etiquette of our parents' family. At that time, it will just be a meal.
So I had made plans before. After identifying the door of Ruan's family, I planned to search around for clues about deer live grass.
But now that such a big thing has happened, it would be too rude of me to run around here and there, so I can only wait patiently.
Xiaoliuzi and I were arranged in the same room. Although the furnishings in the room were still primitive, all the modern facilities were available.
Xiao Liuzi really enjoyed it. As soon as he lay down on the bed, he started watching TV. What he watched was a palace fighting drama that was extremely inappropriate for his age. After watching it for less than ten minutes, he let me My head is big, so I decided to go out and get some fresh air.
Ruan's house is very large, with a front yard and a back yard, covering an area of at least several thousand square meters, and its value is immeasurable.
I walked around this house and found that this house was actually very similar to the silver mansion I saw at Skull Lake. They should both be built in the same period.
Unknowingly, I walked around to a door that looked like the main room. There was a cordon in front of the door. Although the door was tightly closed, I already knew that this should be the scene where Ruan Shengwen's parents died.
Just when I stopped, there was a sudden sound of voices in the distance. It sounded like Liu Tingting and the others, so I thought about going over and taking a look.
As luck would have it, as soon as I turned around, a gust of wind suddenly blew in my face. The wind was not very strong, but it blew open the door of the room behind me.
Squeak...!
There was a heart-stirring sound, and the door behind the cordon slowly opened.
I turned around and looked around. There was nothing special about the interior. The only special thing was that there were two white silk threads hanging from the beams in the middle of the room. They were swinging wildly with the wind. , full of desolation and sadness.
I stretched out my hand to close the door of the room again, then sighed softly and turned around to leave.
In the lotus pond pavilion in the front yard, Liu Tingting, Kestrel and Ximei were all there. They were sitting in the pavilion as if admiring the scenery in the courtyard.
But besides the three of them, there was another person. It was a man with dyed blond hair. He looked to be at least thirty or forty years old. He still had a crooked appearance. He was looking at that expression right now. He was talking to Liu Tingting and the others.
"Hey, beauties, hello. Let me introduce myself. My name is Ruan Shengwu. I don't know what to call these beauties?"
"Ruan Shengwu? Are you the younger brother of my future uncle Ruan Shengwen?" Liu Tingting asked with a wary look.
"Oh, this little beauty is not only beautiful, but also smart. Yes, I am Ruan Shengwen's younger brother, but we are not biological brothers. He calls my dad the second uncle."
Standing in the distance, I was speechless for a while when I heard the words. I thought to myself, can anyone be so complimentary? Isn't this obviously insulting people's IQ? Ruan Shengwen and Ruan Shengwu, even a fool will know that these two are brothers.
Ruan Shengwu's mean look made the three women, including Liu Tingting, stunned for a while. Ximei even turned her head and stuck out her tongue in a retching motion.
Although Liu Tingting also showed a trace of disgust, she still smiled and replied out of politeness: "Since you are Uncle Sheng Wen's younger brother, I will call you Uncle Sheng Wu."
"Hey, why call me uncle? Just call me brother. What do you call this little beauty? Have you ever been married?"
As soon as these words came out, it was obvious what Ruan Shengwuan was thinking, causing Kestrel Xiangqi on the side to cast a vicious look.
They are both from the Ruan family. They are just one word different from Ruan Shengwen, but their character is completely different. Just the appearance of this yellow hair, in Ruan's house, if this is If you were on the street, I would have greeted you with a flying kick.
"I'll call you Uncle Sheng Wu. If we have anything else to do, we'll go back to the room first."
As she said this, Liu Tingting winked at Kestrel and Ximei and turned around to leave, but she never thought that Ruan Shengwu suddenly stepped forward and blocked their way.
"Don't bother me, sisters, please chat with me for a while!"
