After the sweet soup matter was finalized, Zhang Er and the others went about their business, and for a while there were only four of them left in the room.
Wen Yi looked at the bulging money bag, pushed it towards Chen Fei with his hand and said, "Brother Chen Fei, please see what the total is. Once it is determined, we can allocate it."
Li Qian said excitedly: "I have never seen so much money in the years since I opened a restaurant. Sister Wen, I really admire you. Hey, I wish I were a man."
"What does this have to do with whether you are a boy or a girl?" Wen Yi asked Chen Fei and the others a common doubt.
"If I were a man, I would pursue you with all my strength. I would do nothing every day. I would just stay by your side and greet you. I would take you as my own as soon as possible. In this way, we can be inseparable and get along day and night. What a pity. , now it’s very troublesome to even see you, let alone anything else.”
Chen Fei, who was counting the banknotes:?
Even Chen Bin, who had always been calm, couldn't help but curse at this moment: It's a good thing you're not a man, or else you wouldn't even be allowed to see Wen Yi's face, and you still want to take it for yourself? Daydreaming!
Wen Yi couldn't help laughing and teased her: "Why bother? If you want to play with me in the future, you can come to the general's house anytime. If your parents agree, it's no problem to live with me occasionally. It's so exaggerated. There is no separation between us. Are you traveling thousands of miles away? Why are you so miserable?"
After hearing this, Li Qian unconsciously glanced at Chen Bin and said, "My parents won't agree to this unless Brother Chen Bin helps me tell it. After all, my father listens to him the most."
Chen Bin was about to refute, but Wen Yi nodded in agreement: "Then just let Chen Bin talk to your father. It's not a big deal, so it doesn't matter."
Chen Bin: I don’t know if her father has anything to do with it, but I do! Such a clingy person not only wants to play in the house, but also wants to live with Wen Yi? It's really unbearable.
Looking at Wen Yi, he shook his head and said, "Li Qing is just such a girl. She is as precious as her eyes at home. She is busy with military affairs during the day, so we don't want to take up their time for gathering at night. What do you think?"
Li Qian: Does the "eyeball" you mentioned really describe the me who is hated by lay people? I do not know how? As for the family situation you mentioned, I'm afraid even my father doesn't know much about it!
Wen Yi looked at Li Qian's unbelievable expression. Although he was skeptical, it was right after thinking about it carefully. Which parent doesn't love their children? Then he settled for the next best thing and said, "Then let her go to the general's mansion to play during the day. Remember to communicate with Vice General Li."
Chen Bin looked at the two girls who were about to fall out if they refused again, and glared at Chen Fei angrily: They keep talking every day, but if you have the ability, you should take the person home. A fire at the city gate really affects the fish in the pond! Originally, I had less time to spend alone with Wen Yi, but now I have an extra Li Qian! Just thinking about it makes me angry.
He nodded reluctantly and replied, "Okay, I'll talk to you if I have time." Humph! I'm so busy, don't blame me if you can't make time.
Li Qian didn't notice Chen Bin's reluctance. She just held Wen Yi's arm and said happily: "That's great. I can go to Sister Wen's place to play often in the future."
"You are a big girl getting on the sedan chair. You have been so slow to count the coins until now. You have to worry about the money, otherwise you would not be able to count day and night!" Chen Bin yelled at Chen Fei angrily.
Chen Fei: I know you are in trouble. If you have the ability, try saying "no" to Wen Yi. You are a coward! While muttering, he pushed the silver forward: "A total of five hundred and twenty taels, Wen Yi, you can divide it up as you see fit."
Wen Yi stood up, took the money, opened it and said, "As Chen Bin said before, Li Qian and I will each get 20%. My portion will be deducted from the employee's 14 taels, and the rest is all yours."
She took ninety taels from it and pushed it to Li Qian. Li Qian said with a confused face: "I won't take it. The situation at the border is serious now, and the war is about to break out. Brother Chen Bin is in urgent need of money. We will talk about it in the future. Besides, I also I don’t need the silver, and even if I take it, I don’t know how to use it, so forget it.”
Chen Fei didn't force anything and collected the money neatly. After all, with Li Qian's character, she only practices martial arts. No matter how much money she has, it will be of no use to her. It's better to leave it to them. Money should always be used wisely.
Chen Bin didn't care about this at all, he knew that Chen Fei could handle it well. At the moment, I just watched Wen Yi brooding. It is said that the General's Mansion will make appropriate arrangements for Wen Yi's food and clothing. Seeing Wen Yi eagerly collecting the money, he asked in confusion: "Wen Yi, what do you want the money for?"
Wen Yi shook his head and said nothing.
"I don't mean anything else. I can help you if you need it. I have said before that I will give you everything I have willingly. Now I feel that you are in urgent need of this money. Can you tell me what you want to do? ? Don’t let me worry."
Wen Yi then raised his head and looked at Chen Bin: "I want to see the guard's family before. I don't want to use your money, I just want to make it myself. There are other people who are not together, I want to pay homage to them." , I want their families to have enough food and clothing, and I will make a lot of money in the future. I can only make it by myself, I can’t use your money."
Chen Bin watched Wen Yi's mood getting lower and lower as she talked, and slowly became incoherent. He quickly stepped forward to hug her, patted her back and said, "Okay, I understand. It's okay. I'll stay with you later." Go, I also want to thank them for protecting you. Wen Yi, don't be sad, we will help them take care of their families, and they will rest in peace."
Wen Yi choked and replied: "Okay!"
In order to make Wen Yi feel better, Chen Bin went as he said. Chen Fei asked someone to find out the home addresses of several people, and then drove to the destination.
Along the way, Wen Yi remained silent, worried that their parents would scold and blame him, but also afraid that they would be angry and afraid to speak because of Chen Bin's power. No matter what the outcome is, it will be a burden on her heart.
Chen Fei found the guard's home based on the information provided by his subordinates. Just as he was about to get out of the car, he was stopped by Wen Yi.
"I'll go alone, okay? I'm calling you for something. Please stay in the carriage for a while, okay?"
Chen Bin looked at Wen Yi, shook his head and said, "Did you know I would be worried? Now that I'm here, I can't let you go alone. Wen Yi, you should understand this."
Wen Yi shook his head and insisted: "Chen Bin, I will be careful and protect myself. Besides, you guys are guarding the door. If anything happens, I can just call out. What is there to worry about? I have to go by myself. Can you understand?"
Chen Fei held Chen Bin down with his hand and stopped him: "Let her go, Chen Bin, let her untie her heart knot by herself. Wen Yi, his name is Wang Nan, he is the third eldest child in the family, the eldest and the second is his elder brother, and You have a sister, just remember one thing, don’t insist on anything, we will wait for you outside."
Wen Yi stepped forward and hugged Chen Bin, and said comfortingly: "Don't be angry, I will be careful and will be back soon." After that, he turned around and left.
Chen Bin clenched his hands into fists and used all his strength to restrain his feet that wanted to follow.
Wen Yi opened the door and saw a very large courtyard with about five or six thatched houses in it.
There was a woman in her forties sitting in front of the house. Wen Yi came up and asked, "Hello, I'm from the border town. Are you from Wang Nan?"
The woman raised her head and said angrily: "Aren't you officials bothered? We have already said that everyone is dead and you can dispose of the body as you please. Why do you keep coming to the door again and again? Then Those who were stabbed a thousand times, who did not earn anything for their families during their lifetime, and those who have to be busy after death, are not afraid of going to hell!"
Wen Yi felt dissatisfied after hearing this and said, "You are his sister-in-law, right? Where is the head of your family? You want him to die in the wilderness, where are his parents? You should consider their opinions!"
As soon as he finished speaking, an old woman walked out of the hut. She came up and said, "It is his fate to be exposed in the wilderness. Girl, please go back. It is useless to talk more!"
Wen Yi couldn't help but feel chills all over, and asked, "Are you his mother? Why did you treat him like this, even refusing to collect his body?"
The old woman didn't even look at Wen Yi. She snorted and said, "When a person dies, it's like a lamp going out. No matter what you do, it's all in vain. Why bother to work hard anymore? You can go, just think that our relationship with him is over. Don't do it." Don’t bother us again.”
Wen Yi turned around and left without saying a word. He couldn't help but shake his head and murmured: "Yes, there is nothing incomprehensible about it. It's outrageous for Minister Wen to treat her like this, kidnapping, raping, and assassinating her. Not to mention Wang Nan's family? What am I still insisting on? A loving father and a filial son? Brothers, friends and brothers are respectful? It turns out that this is the way the world is. Family ties are bullshit, and your own interests are the most important."
Chen Bin was originally standing at the door waiting for her. When he saw her walking back in a daze, he strode forward and picked her up. He didn't put her down until she got into the carriage.
Wen Yi smiled bitterly and said: "When I came here, I was worried that they would be angry with me. I was even worried that they would not dare to speak because of your anger, so I had to go in alone. I had even thought about how to apologize, but do you know? Chen Bin, they didn't care about Wang Nan's death. They threw him there like garbage and refused to even collect his body. Both parents and brothers were like this, selfish and cruel. Why? Even Shilang Wen was the same. "
Chen Bin actually heard Wen Yi's conversation inside. He held her hand and explained: "Wen Yi, you have to know that there are all kinds of birds in the forest. You can't kill a boatload of people with a bamboo pole. They are just They can never represent all of us. I only know that my father respects my mother. She is the only one in his life, and he loves me and Chen Ping very much. There are many cases in this world where a mouse droppings ruins a pot of soup. It's all true, but we can't be on guard against everyone just because some people have sinister hearts. Look around us, the soldiers are fighting to the death to protect their homes and the country. Even people with poor backgrounds like Chen Dong and others know how to be grateful. Wen Yi, in this world After all, there are more good people, and we should treat people and things in this world with a beautiful attitude."
Li Qian also comforted: "There is also my father. My father also loves me very much. In order to stay with my mother, we will fight against all odds and stay together until we grow old. Sister Wen, don't be sad. We can do it ourselves." Wang Nan took care of his posthumous affairs, so that he could be buried with great splendor and buried in peace with endless incense."
After hearing this, Wen Yi quickly cheered up and said, "Yes, I can do it by myself. That's fine. I can also give him a ride myself."
