Just as Jin Huijuan was desperately fighting with "Ye Jinxian", the door of the room was kicked open with a bang.
"Who is it?! How dare you ruin my kindness..." The words behind "Ye Jinxian" suddenly got stuck in his throat.
He watched in surprise as two young men in brocade clothes walked in, followed by an extremely beautiful girl.
He has never seen such a beautiful woman in his life. Jin is already a beauty, but compared with this one, it is like comparing Xiaojiabiyu with Tianwai Feixian. Both appearance and demeanor are completely different. "Ye Jinxian" froze on the spot.
"Huijuan, are you okay?" Yan Tian took the opportunity to pull Jin to his side, looked at her slightly messy bun, and asked softly while suppressing his anger.
"Haha, she, she is naturally very good."
"Ye Jinxian" stared at Yan Tian with a pair of rat eyes, and he wanted to move forward as he spoke. But he didn't want to be pushed in the face as soon as he took a step, almost causing him to fall. Then a wall of iron towers blocked the way.
"Hey! You..." "Ye Jinxian" opened his mouth to curse, but when he raised his head and met a pair of murderous phoenix eyes, the unspoken obscene words suddenly got stuck in his throat.
The owner of these eyes is too terrifying. Although he is also dressed as a noble man with fine clothes and jade belt, his eyes look fierce as if he wants to eat people, his face is covered with stubble and he has a vicious look. He doesn't look like a noble man, but looks like a bandit.
Ye Jinxian's eyelids twitched, he swallowed back what he had almost swallowed, and then stepped back unconsciously.
The first time Qin Zhuen glanced at Yan Tian from "Ye Jinxian", he had murderous intentions. He squinted his eyes and stared down at the pair of rat eyes that were spinning around, thinking in his mind, if he used the stainless steel dagger in his boots to gouge out these eyes as small as mung beans, would it be overkill? Probably not even half an inch of the tip of the knife could be stained.
Yan Yu was not happy in his heart, but he was rational after all. He felt Qin Zhuen's murderous intent and subconsciously grabbed his sleeve. This was in Luozhou, so he must not cause trouble for his third uncle.
"Tian, Tiantian!" Jin was in shock, holding Yan Tian's hand in both hands and shaking, "I, I'm fine!"
Tiantian? "Ye Jinxian" his eyes flashed like ghost fire, and he suddenly realized something in his heart. It turned out to be her!
"I wonder what brought Miss Yan here?" "Ye Jinxian" suddenly became polite and polite. If you ignore his plump and short figure, his salute was really a bit graceful.
Yan Tian smiled slightly at the "Ye Jinxian" who was "reviving a dead body" in front of him. This behavior is indeed very similar to the original one. It seems like a tough nut to crack!
"I have something important to do, and I want to invite Huijuan to stay with me for two days. Huijuan, let's go." After saying that, Yan Tian pulled Jin Huijuan out.
"Wait!" "Ye Jinxian" opened his mouth to stop him and raised his foot to chase, but was immediately blocked by Qin Zhuen.
Although "Ye Jinxian" was afraid of this fierce bearded god, he still had the courage to shout at the door: "I, I don't allow it! The New Year is just around the corner, and we are busy! What good woman would go out to visit during the twelfth lunar month? ?”
Yan Tian pretended not to hear anything and dragged Jin out of the room. Anyway, Qin Zhuen and Yan Yu were blocking her. It was very wise to bring them out today.
"Hi! You... mother-in-law!" Ye Jinxian pointed at Jin's back and called out from behind the two door gods while jumping on his feet. There were probably a word or two in the middle that he forcefully swallowed, "You, if you dare to come out of this house, I, I will divorce you!"
Jin, who was originally being dragged away by Yan Tian, couldn't help but stomp her feet, and instead shook Yan Tian. Yan Tian frowned and turned to look at Jin.
"Tiantian, I, I'm really busy here, how about you..."
"My daughter-in-law can just follow Miss Yan! All the family affairs are mine!" Ms. Jin was hesitant to leave, but before she finished speaking, her mother-in-law came over from the other side of the courtyard and took over the conversation.
The old couple of the Ye family did not expect Yan Tian to be so anxious. Just as they agreed to let Mrs. Jin go to the Yan family to stay for two days, she disappeared like a gust of wind. When the two elders hurried to the back house, they saw Mr. Jin hesitantly declining.
How can this work? It was about her son's future, so Mrs. Ye quickly spoke up to save her.
"Father, mother." When "Ye Jinxian" saw the old couple coming, he hurriedly saluted, a little more gentle and elegant than before, "Seeing the New Year now, everything needs to be taken care of by Mrs. Jin, how can she let her do it at the busiest time?" Hang out?"
"Everything is done by me!" Mrs. Ye winked at her son, "It's the same if I take care of everything."
"How can that be done? Since we have a daughter-in-law, how can we let our mother do the hard work?" "Ye Jinxian" had a righteous face and spoke sternly.
Mrs. Ye immediately burst into tears. While wiping the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, she winked at her son frequently and loudly:
"It's okay, this little bit of work won't be in the way. Miss Yan has serious business with your wife, not just hanging around. Your father and I have already agreed. This will also be of great benefit to you."
Although her son's thoughtfulness and caring brought tears to her eyes, in the end, his future was the most important thing. Mrs. Ye was very afraid that this matter would be messed up, so she couldn't help but leave a sentence to her son at the end.
"Everything good"? "Ye Jinxian" couldn't help but feel moved in his heart, so he stopped pestering her. Although he acted reluctantly, he still followed Mrs. Ye's words and let Jin go.
Yan Tian looked on with cold eyes, unable to help but sneer in her heart, but she still said hello perfunctorily and said goodbye. Then he took Jin's hand, took the red fruit, and flew out of the Ye family's back house.
Of course, when "Ye Jinxian" later learned from his mother that these "all kinds of benefits" were just the result of Magistrate Yan recommending him to study in the Imperial College, the flesh on his face jumped uncontrollably for a long time. It took a lot of effort to squeeze out a smile, and thanked the second elder of the Ye family through clenched teeth.
…
Besides, Jin Huijuan was taken to Yan's house by Yan Tian and stayed at Yan's house for two days. The two sisters lived happily, chatting, playing chess, drinking tea and embroidering. It's just that Jin Huijuan often frowns in a daze when no one is around, with a sad look on her face. This freedom is mixed with a bit of haze.
Bantou Li was sent by Yan Wenkuan to visit the surrounding counties, but he did not find any clues related to the current "Ye Jinxian".
The Yan family's father and daughter were starting to get a little angry. Since the two elders of the Ye family believe that this "Ye Jinxian" is their "resurrection" son, the government cannot forcefully interfere without finding any contrary evidence.
At this time, which was the third day after Jin's stay at Yan's house, the Ye family finally couldn't help but send someone to take Jin back.
After breakfast, a hot brazier was lit in the house, and the aroma of daffodils floated in the hot air. Yan Tianzheng and Jin Huijuan were embroidering and laughing happily. Xiaozhu led a woman from the Ye family in.
"You go back and tell your master and your wife that my wedding dress will take some time to embroider." Yan Tian's face darkened when he saw the visitor, and he refused directly, "I have to be in a hurry, and I don't like the embroidery work done by embroiderers in shops outside. Yes, I can only trouble Huijuan to work here for a few more days. When I get back, tell your wife that what I said last time will stand. You go back."
The old woman looked dumbfounded, but she didn't dare to disobey the prefect's daughter, so she kowtowed and retreated.
"Tian Tian..." Jin Huijuan looked very uneasy when she saw the mother-in-law leaving. She looked at Yan Tian's face and said, "Why don't I just go back. My husband has just returned, and it seems that the New Year is about to come. I will always live here with you. It’s totally unreasonable.”
Yan Tian stopped holding the embroidery needle in his hand, raised his eyes and looked at her seriously and asked, "Huijuan, do you really believe that that person is your husband Ye Jinxian?"
"Of course." Jin Huijuan lowered her head, "Although his appearance is different, his behavior is the same as before. And the parents-in-law have recognized that he is the husband. Of course they will not admit their mistake."
Yan Tian lowered his eyes, sighed and said: "Women in this world are different from men. Women are severely punished throughout their lives. If they make a wrong step and damage their chastity and reputation, they may not be allowed to live in the world and will never recover. I have been a child since I was a child. I’m not angry about it, but there’s nothing I can do about it.”
"What can never be undone in this world is not only the loss of chastity and reputation?" Jin Huijuan suddenly sneered, and the expression on her face suddenly became sharp, "A woman is no better than an ant in this world. She obeys her father at home and obeys her when she gets married. Husband, the husband will follow the son. To put it bluntly, it is just a life of relying on men such as father, husband, and son to feed and live.
"If unfortunately her father doesn't do anything and her husband dies without a son, then this woman will undoubtedly be doomed! Eternal disaster? Huh, what's so scary about that? The scary thing is to die without a burial place! If you die so easily, who will be connected to you after death? I don’t know if my family’s ancestral grave can be buried in a proper cemetery..."
Jin Huijuan suddenly stopped talking. She seemed to realize that the emotion she just showed was too radical and was not her usual weak and gentle self, so she quickly lowered her eyes to cover her emotions, and tightened her tight cotton jacket awkwardly.
She came out in such a hurry that she didn't have time to bring any clothes, and no one from the Ye family came to deliver them. The clothes she had been wearing for the past two days were Yan Tian's clothes.
I see. Yan Tian looked at Jin Huijuan in silence for a long time. When she just sent Madam Ye back, she seemed to feel that Jin Huijuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out to be not her illusion.
It’s not that Jin Huijuan doesn’t doubt or resist, it’s just that she doesn’t have the capital confidence to doubt and resist. She was more afraid of becoming a widow than having her innocence ruined by the fake Ye Jinxian. Although the Ye family has withered away, the clan members are still there. A childless widow cannot escape the fate of being helpless and lonely in the future.
But what if you recognize the fake Ye Jinxian? Maybe no one will find it in a lifetime. Maybe she can live her whole life as her Young Mistress Ye peacefully...
So do she and her father still want to trace the origin of this "Ye Jinxian"? Yan Tian looked at his friend who suddenly became confused.
The appearance of "Ye Jinxian" seemed to turn everyone's sadness into joy, and they were ecstatic. The second elder of the Ye family, Jin Huijuan, a member of the Jin family...
So is it necessary to continue investigating?
…
"Do you think it's necessary?" After lunch that day, Yan Tian came to his father's study to express his doubts. It happened that Yan Yu and Qin Zhuen were also there. Yan Wenkuan looked at the three of them with a serious look on his face, stroking his beard and asked.
"I don't think it's necessary." Yan Yu looked at the other two people and said with a relaxed expression, "Originally, Ye Jinxian's 'resurrection of the soul' by borrowing a corpse may not be a fake. It is not that this kind of thing has never happened in the past dynasties. Besides, father and son. Mother, son, husband and wife are reunited again, and everyone is happy. Why bother to make others unhappy?"
Yan Wenkuan didn't say anything after hearing this, but looked at Qin Zhuen again. Yan Tian frowned and looked at Qin Zhuen:
"What do you think, Brother Qin?"
"Uh..." Qin Zhuen didn't know what had happened these past two days. Every time he looked at Yan Tian's eyes like a clear pool, he immediately blushed uncontrollably and his heart beat. He lowered his head to cover up and touched his nose, but involuntarily glanced at Yan Tian from the corner of his eyes, "Um, um... I just want to ask, if you just put your hands down now, a few years later, one day the real identity of this fake Ye Jinxian will be revealed. What will happen to Jin after she comes out?"
"Jin's family?" Yan Tian seemed shocked, pondering for a moment, and then spoke in a gloomy tone, "Jin's father is a local priest, he prides himself on being a scholarly family, he attaches great importance to family tradition, and he is a bit rigid and conservative, even stubborn. No change. If she is exposed in the future, Huijuan..."
Yan Tian thought of the words "father's inaction" mentioned by Jin Huijuan, and couldn't help frowning more tightly: "Her father probably won't support her, and maybe he will be ashamed of it."
"That is to say, if it is revealed later, Jin Huijuan will most likely be humiliated in vain, and her husband's family will definitely not be able to stay. Then, it is even more important to investigate! And it is imminent!" Qin Zhuen looked at Yan Tian and Yan Wenkuan and said firmly. "Before it becomes a big mistake, before it is irreversible. If it is false, the truth will be revealed one day, it is just a matter of sooner or later.
"If this matter is revealed in the future, the disaster will be even greater. It is better to get to the bottom of it now and expose the matter completely. Fortunately, it has not caused a catastrophe yet, and everything is still late."
As soon as Qin Zhuen said these words, he immediately saw Yan Tian's eyes in front of him light up, like cold stars breaking through the sky, with brilliant colors shining. Her smiling eyes looked at him with sincerity, as if she agreed with her own words.
Qin Zhuen's face suddenly felt hot, as if there were flames burning from his cheeks all the way to his roots. He couldn't help but put his fist to his lip and coughed.
"Ah En is right." Yan Wenkuan looked solemn and nodded, "Sooner or later this scam will be exposed, and it is impossible to say that Jin will be the biggest victim by then. Besides, the bright world cannot allow such treacherous tricks to deceive the world. Disrupt law and order.
"Tiantian, I know that you have always been on good terms with Mr. Jin, that's why you are hesitant. But this matter is like a poisonous sore. If you just hold it in for the sake of superficial peace of mind, one day the poisonous sore may break out. It will kill people!”
Yan Tian looked at his father and was finally fully awakened, relieved of his doubts for the day. She nodded.
"But Ye Jinxian is not necessarily fake." Yan Yu whispered beside him, "Maybe it's really a 'resurrection of a dead body'..."
"Absolutely impossible!" Yan Tian and Qin Zhuen said in unison, and then they were both startled and looked at each other.
Yan Tian raised the corners of his mouth, and flowers immediately bloomed on his cheeks, as bright as the morning glow. Qin Zhuen suddenly coughed again, his face flushed.
Yan Yu narrowed his eyes as he watched the two of them, but heard his third uncle continue to say in a very gloomy voice: "But Team Leader Li has been investigating for three days, but he has not found out the origin of this 'Ye Jinxian'! If If this continues, if the Ye family comes to ask for someone again, we will have no reason to refuse."
"Uncle Yan, cough...well, I probably have a way to expose this fake Ye Jinxian."
Before he finished speaking, the three Yan family members looked at Qin Zhuen at the same time. Suddenly meeting Yan Tian's eyes again, Qin Zhuen immediately coughed again.
