Seeing Xie Yuan for the first time, Ji Chunshan immediately guessed that Xie Yuan had gotten important news about Ye Jinming in the county, so he came here on the second day of the Lunar New Year, but because of some concerns, he hadn't told him yet. Ye Qinglan asked Xie Yuan to help find out about Ye Jinming, so before inviting Xie Yuan into the house, he asked Xie Yuan: "Brother Xie, did you find any news about Ye Jinming?"

"That's right," Xie Yuan replied, "Even though Brother Ji said you would go to the county on the [-]th, I think this matter is very important. It's better to tell you earlier. If you have any plans, you can discuss and plan them in advance." Down."

After learning what the Ye family did to Ye Qinglan, he knew that Ji Chunshan asked him to investigate Ye Jinming's news must be to deal with Ye Jinming.With the urging of his mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, he naturally handled this matter with great care and meticulousness. He didn't think that within a few days, just before the end of the year, he discovered a shady secret of Ye Jinming, and discussed it with his mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. Then, on the second day of junior high school, under the guise of going back to his wife's natal home, he came to Anping Village to inform Ji Chunshan.

Although Ji Chunshan didn't know what was going on, but hearing Xie Yuan's tone, he could understand that it must be good news for himself, but it was not the time to explain it in detail, so he said to Xie Yuan: "Thank you brother in advance, and also It’s hard work for you to run this trip, but can you please stop talking about it in front of Qinglan for a while?”

Without waiting for Xie Yuan to ask why, Ji Chunshan explained: "Brother Xie must have known about the old affairs of the Ye family and Qinglan by now. I asked you to find out the news about Ye Jinming. I want to keep him from knowing for the time being, so as not to cause trouble."

Hearing what Ji Chunshan said, Xie Yuan realized that this matter was only his own idea. He was a little surprised, but he could also feel his sincere love for Ye Qinglan, so he nodded in agreement.

It takes two hours to commute from Anping village to the county seat. Xie Yuan came in the morning, so he wanted to save some food. After lunch, he got up and said goodbye, and Ji Chunshan saw him off in person.

After leaving the house, Xie Yuancai began to tell Ji Chunshan about all the information about Ye Jinming that he and his mother-in-law, aunt Wu, and daughter-in-law Wu Yun worked together to inquire about Ye Jinming.

Ye Jinming, a native of Yejia Village, has both parents at home, in addition to two elder brothers and a younger sister, all of whom are married, except for one uncle who has passed away. Although his family background is richer than ordinary villagers, it is only average. The home of farming and reading.

He studied with his uncle Juren since he was a child. After his uncle passed away unexpectedly, he entered Jinjiang College in the county seat. Now he is in his twenties. Six years ago, he took the entrance examination for children but only passed two examinations. , have not passed.His wife has some background, she is the second daughter of Chief Registrar Liu of Fangcheng County Yamen.

According to common sense, Ye Jinming was born in the countryside, and his appearance is average, and he has no fame at all. Although he has some family property, it is nothing in the eyes of a county clerk. However, I heard from a good woman who worked in the county secretary's house that the county secretary was indeed dissatisfied with Ye Jinming's son-in-law, but it was the county secretary's second daughter who fell in love with Ye Jinming and insisted on marrying him. G.

The county secretary couldn't do it for his daughter, so he had to agree to the marriage in the end.Ye Jinming became the son-in-law of the county secretary. Because of this status, people gave him a little bit of praise. In addition, he himself has no shortcomings in interpersonal communication, and he can get along like a fish in water in the county. There are a few who don't have much contact with each other, but there is no hatred.

Hearing this, Ji Chunshan couldn't help frowning. Ye Jinming has a father-in-law who is a county registrant. Even if he doesn't like his father-in-law, if he wants to deal with Ye Jinming, his wife Liu will definitely be implicated. If the master secretary would not stand by and watch, it would be difficult for him.

Ji Chunshan was worrying, but Xie Yuan had already mentioned his real purpose of coming to Ji Chunshan today, which was the very important thing he discovered related to Ye Jinming.

The 28th of the twelfth lunar month is the day when the college closes classes and begins the spring break. Xie Yuan followed Ye Jinming after he left the college. He didn’t want Ye Jinming to go to meet friends or go home, but turned around and went to a remote place. in front of the yard.Xie Yuan hid behind the corner, and clearly saw that the person who opened the door was a young woman who looked no more than [-] years old, and she called Ye Jinming 'Sanlang' very affectionately, while Ye Jinming softly called the woman 'Hui Niang', and then The two carried each other into the courtyard.

Xie Yuan waited outside for quite a while, and it took less than half an hour before he saw Ye Jinming come out again, but at a glance, he could see that Ye Qinglan was no longer wearing the same clothes as when he went in, and Ye Jinming returned to his home afterward.On the second day, Ye Jinming hired a carriage and took his wife back to Yejia Village to celebrate the New Year, while Xie Yuan went to find two families living next to the woman named Hui Niang, and each gave a hundred dollars, and then asked about the woman. of origin.

The woman's surname is Ruan, her father died early, and she has no brothers or sisters. She only depends on her mother and makes a living by doing embroidery.More than a year ago, Ruan's mother was seriously ill, lingering for a long time, and finally passed away.This girl is pure filial piety, the money in the family was used to see a doctor before, and there is nothing left to borrow from the neighbors, so that her mother can be buried in peace, she is dressed in filial piety clothes and sold herself on the street to bury her mother...

Although Xie Yuan hasn't said anything about the latter, Ji Chunshan has already guessed that the woman surnamed Ruan must have been entangled by bullies. Ye Jinming suddenly appeared as a hero to save the beauty, and gave her money to help her bury her mother. The woman had nothing to repay In order to agree with her body, and according to what Xie Yuan said earlier, the woman was quite attractive and unreliable, so Ye Jinming took advantage of the situation and came to a golden house to hide her beauty.

After Xie Yuan finished speaking, it was exactly as Ji Chunshan guessed.Knowing this, at this time Ji Chunshan's annoyance caused by being afraid of Mr. Liu has long since disappeared, and he feels more confident about his previous plan.

From the time they left the house, the two walked and talked all the way, until they reached the road west of the village, they had almost finished what they needed to say, and Xie Yuan took his leave again.After watching Xie Yuan drive the donkey cart towards the county seat, Ji Chunshan returned home briskly.

When Ji Chunshan came back, Ye Qinglan was leaning over behind the painting table to paint. When he saw him enter the room, he paused his pen, raised his head and asked: "I'm back, why have you been away for so long?" It was almost a quarter of an hour.

Ji Chunshan smiled and said, "I chatted with brother Xie for a while, and I wasted some time."

Ye Qinglan nodded, without asking what they said, she lowered her head and continued to paint.

Ji Chunshan just stood aside and watched without making a sound. When Ye Qinglan finally straightened up and put down the brush, he said, "Did you finish painting? Let's go for a walk in the yard, bask in the sun, and rest."

Ye Qinglan just finished the line drawing of a painting and still needs coloring, but he would never refuse Ji Chunshan's kindness, so he nodded with a smile and replied, "Okay."

Ji Chunshan walked slowly in the yard with Ye Qinglan. After thinking about it, he decided to tell Ye Qinglan his plan. Well, as far as the county is concerned, he is more familiar with him than him. If the two discuss it together, it will be safer and the success will be even greater.

After thinking about it, Ji Chunshan pondered his words, and then said to Ye Qinglan: "Actually, Xie Yuan came today to tell me something, which I asked him to do before."

In fact, Ye Qinglan had already noticed that Ji Chunshan had something on his mind, but Ji Chunshan didn't say anything, so he didn't ask. At this time, Ji Chunshan finally spoke, he was not surprised, just looked at Ji Chunshan, waiting for his next words .

Ji Chunshan hesitated for a moment, and then said again: "Do you still remember when you went to brother Xie's house last time, you saw a woman with your mother's hairpin at the door of his house?"

Ye Qinglan's expression was slightly concentrated, she nodded, and said, "I remember." Although it was only one side, he would never forget it.

"That woman is the second daughter of Chief Registrar Liu of the county government office, and also... Ye Jinming's wife." Ji Chunshan looked at Ye Qinglan's face, and sure enough he had just finished speaking, when Ye Qinglan's expression froze and she stopped walking.

Ye Qinglan parted her lips slightly, and murmured: "So it's like this..." It turned out that the woman was Ye Jinming's wife, and it turned out to be his third sister-in-law. No wonder there was her mother's hairpin, he should have thought of it a long time ago.

Seeing that Ye Qinglan's expression was wrong, Ji Chunshan hurriedly said, "When I learned that it was your mother's belongings, I wanted to help you get it back, so I asked Brother Xie what kind of family it was, and only then did I learn that the head of the household was actually Ye Jinming. I knew at the time that it was unlikely to be redeemed and bought back, so I asked Brother Xie to inquire about Ye Jinming in the county seat, thinking that if I got some useful information, I would take advantage of his shortcomings and use this to ask for his return. Here comes your mother's relic."

"It's just that I can't say for sure whether this will happen in the end, so I didn't tell you. I thought that it would be best if the things can be brought back. If not, it will save you from waiting in vain and rejoicing in vain in the end. This time, Xie Yuan came to tell me good news. He found out that Ye Jinming had a foreign room. He dared not let his wife know about such a thing. Then Mr. Liu is no longer a hindrance to us, but a help If it works properly, although Ye Jinming cannot be ruined, it should be no problem to recover your mother's relics."

"Thank you..." Looking at Ji Chunshan and feeling his thoughtfulness, Ye Qinglan suddenly felt that it was not worth it to worry about those people before. He has already got the best, and it is right in front of him. This is what he deserves the most. And the person who should care the most.

Putting his fingers lightly on Ye Qinglan's lips, Ji Chunshan frowned and said dissatisfiedly: "Don't say these three words to me again, otherwise I will..." He lowered his head, replaced his fingers with his lips, and used his actions to Expressed his unspoken words.

The afternoon sun was just right, and the shadows of the two people embracing each other were reflected on the ground and blended together, regardless of you and me.
