Chapter 394: He was wronged to death

~8 min read 1,520 words

To prepare the gift, Chen Xiaolan had been running to her maiden family quite diligently recently.

She brought the latest news about the Su family and the Tang family to Chen Guanlou.

"The Tang family took the initiative to find my mother-in-law, saying that the matchmaking matter with you was void. They have a new marriage partner. My mother-in-law was still full of unhappiness, saying that her maiden family despised her, and they had an unhappy time."

Chen Guanlou raised his eyebrows; Tang Boss did things very efficiently, only two days had passed, and he had solved the matter, and it didn't implicate his eldest sister Chen Xiaolan. He was indeed a smart person who knew the situation, and he didn't look like Su Pozi's younger brother.

Su Pozi was a crazy old woman, completely unreasonable, and the four words "worshiping the rich and despising the poor" were almost carved directly on her forehead.

Born from the same mother, the difference was greater than the difference between humans and livestock.

Chen Xiaolan continued to nag, "It is said that this marriage was because the daughter of the Tang family's second branch took a fancy to you and was making a fuss to marry you. I thought about it carefully; it was when you came to pay New Year's greetings during the New Year, and the Tang family girl saw you, so she took it to heart. You, everything is good, but this face is becoming more and more attractive."

Chen Guanlou raised his eyebrows. "Is it that my face wasn't attractive before? Eldest sister, what are you saying? I have always been very attractive." He had an appearance of knowing he was handsome, but it wasn't greasy, having a kind of frank and sincere sincerity.

Chen Xiaolan spat. First, she was disgusted, and then she became proud again. "You weren't attractive before. You were always gloomy before, a bit timid, didn't like to deal with people, and always buried your head. Actually, that Tang family girl had seen you before. She didn't take a fancy to you before, but after a few years, she took a fancy to you and was making a fuss to die. It can be seen that your face is becoming more and more attractive. If you don't take a fancy to the girls in the neighborhood, don't go around these girls, lest you harm people. Harming people and not taking responsibility is truly a sin."

"Eldest sister, your brother is wronged! I am two points and one line every day, either in the Heavenly Prison or at home, or in the brothel; when have I gone around girls? Even if I go around, I go around young little wives."

"Be serious. You are not allowed to go around girls, and you are not allowed to go around little wives. You have nothing to do and go around other people's little wives; this is wrong."

"This won't do, that won't do, should I go around the widow's door."

"You are becoming more and more energetic. Don't think that because you have grown up, I can't beat you. If you dare to mess around, I will break your legs." Chen Xiaolan kept a straight face; she had a little bit of hidden worry in her heart, would her brother really take a fancy to that widow?

Thinking carefully, these past few years, her brother didn't seem to show any interest in big girls, but instead, little widows and the like were entangled.

The more she thought, the more worried she became. "Xiaolou, tell eldest sister, do you really fancy little widows? A while ago, I heard people say that you took a fancy to Liu Wan Shi; is it true? Otherwise, why did you run to the Liu family so diligently after Liu Guanshi died?"

"Eldest sister, can you not listen to the wind and rain? Do you believe me or outsiders?"

"I naturally believe you."

"Then I solemnly tell you, I don't have that meaning for Liu Wan Shi; are you relieved now?"

Chen Xiaolan:...

Relieved... my ass.

She was half-believing and half-doubting, struggling and uneasy in her heart, asking: "Really don't have that meaning? I've seen Liu Wan Shi; don't look at her age, that figure and those eyebrows, it feels like she's seducing people at all times."

Chen Guanlou recalled for a moment. Hmm, the eldest sister was right; even when wearing mourning clothes, Liu Wan Shi looked as if she were seducing someone. With his powerful willpower, he restrained himself. He was truly a master who could pass through a hundred flowers without a single petal sticking to him.

Looking at his aftertaste, Chen Xiaolan screamed in her heart that it was over, it was over. Her hand was faster than her brain, and she slapped him. "Still saying you aren't thinking about it. Look at your eyes. Who is bad to think about, but you have to think about a widow. When did you have the hobby of liking widows? Are you worthy of our parents?"

"Eldest sister, you can't slander me. I am innocent."

"Innocence coming out of your mouth is stained with bad luck. You tighten your skin for me; if I know you mess around, even if I am married, I can represent our parents and break your legs."

"My eldest sister, when have I messed around? Don't think one thing and another."

"You go to the brothel every three days; if that's not messing around, what is?"

"That's my normal hobby, and it shouldn't be confused."

Chen Xiaolan saw that her brother was stubborn, picked up the broom, and wanted to beat him. Chen Guanlou decisively ran out of the house and drilled into the brothel and didn't come out. He decided to live in the brothel for a few days, and wait until his eldest sister calmed down before talking.

Really, carrying the crime of liking widows out of thin air, he was wronged to death. If he had really slept with a certain widow, he would have been able to carry the crime with peace of mind. The key was that he hadn't slept with a single one.

Liu Wan Shi there... forget it, forget it, don't think about it. Focus on drinking flower wine.

After a few days, Chen Xiaolan calmed down, and the gift was prepared properly. She asked Chen Guanlou to send the gift to the Hou Fu's main branch.

Chen Guanlou didn't want to send it, and the reason was very justified.

"The eldest young mistress is having a small birthday; those who go are all female relatives. What's the point of me sending a gift? It's not appropriate. Eldest sister, you go for me; you are a female relative, and it's just right to mix with those ladies and wives. Don't be afraid of being looked down upon. Whatever you need, just tell me, and I will prepare it properly for you. I know people in the palace, from jewelry to clothes to shoes and socks, I guarantee it will be properly prepared."

"What kind of status am I? There's no need to climb. Wearing clothes that fit my status and matching jewelry that fits my status is enough; don't worry about me blindly. Since you don't want to come forward, fine, I will come forward for you and go to congratulate the eldest young mistress on her birthday."

Chen Guanlou's way was the Hu Zhang Yuli of the neighboring female prisoner, and Hu Zhang Yuli had a large group of palace maids under his hands. Finding palace maids to prepare two sets of clothes and jewelry, as long as the money was in place, everything was prepared properly in a short time.

When the day came, Chen Xiaolan wore the clothes and jewelry Chen Guanlou had prepared for her and went to the Hou Fu, and sure enough, she was greeted with a crowd of praise.

Getting face in the Hou Fu, Chen Xiaolan was very proud in her heart.

Chen Guanlou was also happy; his eldest sister was in a good mood, so she didn't have the heart to catch him and ask about the widow, and his ears could finally be quiet.

One autumn rain, one autumn cold.

The autumn wind was desolate, and overnight, it went from summer to winter. The trees on the roadside were bare, and people had also turned out the cotton clothes pressed at the bottom of the box and wrapped them on their bodies, starting a long winter.

Chen Guanlou stood under the eaves outside the duty room, rinsed his mouth, and thought that today's dish was a bit salty, as if the salt jar had been overturned. The chef was clearly absent-minded when cooking.

Could it be that the logistics group had an accident?

He called Qian Fugui.

Qian Fugui managed money and could see problems that others didn't notice from the money.

He asked directly: "Is the logistics side peaceful recently?"
