Chapter 148 There is a Stranger
Shen Wei was slightly stunned and looked up into her eyes.
Is what she said true?
"He wants to divorce his wife?" It seems that Xiao Cheng doesn't have her in his heart at all, otherwise he would have protected her against all odds.
"Divorce is fine. I don't want to be stuck in that backyard mansion either. This also gives both of us a way out."
Her reputation was ruined when the Hou family divorced her, but she didn't intend to live her whole life relying on this illusory reputation.
She relies on herself in this life, and it has nothing to do with Xiao Cheng.
Since we have no intention of dwelling on the grudges of the previous life, we should give each other some respect in this life.
"In that case, then go back to Wanwuji. It's yours." Shen Wei spoke slowly. Wanwuji is now well-known in Bian Jing, and she can also show off in front of others if she comes back to take charge.
Yu Caiwei raised her lips and asked, "Aren't you afraid that I will snatch it away?"
"It was originally yours." Shen Wei curled his lips. He had never thought of occupying the collection of all things.
She came up with the idea and the money, and at most he just helped to manage it.
Now that she needed it, it was just right for him to step aside.
"Shen Wei, I need help."
Yu Caiwei then spoke. She asked him to come here because she needed to borrow some of his confidants.
She had to find evidence and wipe out the people in Ju Yu Hui. Only in this way could those young people be spared from these sufferings.
"When I came from Yuzhou, my family gave me some secret guards." Shen Wei agreed immediately and gave all the smart people around him to her.
When Yu Caiwei left, she glanced in the direction of Dingyuan Marquis' Mansion. She was only waiting for the divorce letter. Next, she should go and do what she had to do.
She will not give up on saving A Yu, nor will she give up on Cai Yue.
Yu Caiwei opened the package, looked at the information on the paper, and smiled.
Unexpectedly, Shen Wei was also secretly investigating Ju Yu Club. It seemed that he was very thoughtful about her.
"Miss, these were all found out by the master." The leader spoke immediately. After the last incident, the master sent people to investigate, and only then did they find these things.
Yu Caiwei nodded slightly. Her cousin was quite reliable.
She pointed in a direction and whipped the horse whip, "Go!"
"Let's go, that direction!"
I don’t know if it’s because it has been raining for the past few days, but the sky today is exceptionally blue, with almost no clouds to be seen.
Even if there are clouds, they are very white, gathering in twos and threes, which adds a wild charm.
The crops along the way swayed in the breeze, and the lush greenery made the four of them feel good.
Soon we arrived at the first village.
The village here is called Zhujia Village, with about a hundred households. Three of the families here have gone to Qionghui Temple to pray for the health of their children and wanted to see their children.
The four of them dismounted and walked towards the village.
When the four people first met, Yu Caiwei told them everything about the Ju Yu Club.
The three young men who heard this beat their chests and stamped their feet, wishing they could chop those dignitaries into slices, cook them, and eat them with garlic to vent their hatred.
Their children are not that old, only five or six years older than the boys captured by Ju Yu Society. They can better understand the boys' miserable life.
So now the three of them look very motivated.
When had anyone in Zhujia Village ever seen four horses parked side by side? The elderly grandparents who were chatting at the intersection immediately surrounded Yu Caiwei and her group of four.
An old man who looked somewhat venerable and respected, tapped his pipe and looked up and down at the four horses with envy. He took a puff of his cigarette, and black smoke came out of his mouth, revealing a row of yellow teeth.
He used his pipe to knock away the hand that wanted to touch the horse, and then he said, "What business do you four young men have in our Zhujia Village?"
Yu Caiwei stepped forward, bowed, and said, "Old man, do you know where Liu Erhu's home is?"
"Liu Erhu?"
The old man blinked his triangular eyes and took another puff of his pipe.
"What are you doing at Liu Erhu's house?"
Yu Caiwei replied politely: "There are some things I want to discuss with the Liu family."
The old man who smoked had wrinkles on his face trembling. He pretended to be confused and asked again, "What's the matter?"
Yu Caiwei saw that the other party was talking over and over again and it seemed that he had no intention of telling her where Liu Erhu's home was.
He smiled and bowed, not intending to ask any more questions. Instead, he turned around and looked at the old women surrounding him.
It seems that the people in Zhujia Village are protecting each other. I don’t know if we can find out the truth through this trip.
When she came out of the Hou Mansion, she also took some information about the Ju Yu Club from Xiao Cheng, but she got these by secretly going to the study while he was away.
From the day she asked him to write a letter of divorce, they had no relationship anymore.
Her appearance today is truly noble in the eyes of these ordinary people.
Several old ladies stretched out their hands to touch the material of her clothes.
They have never seen such smooth and lustrous material in their entire lives!
But I was afraid that the calluses on my hands would damage the material and I would be scolded by the nobleman, so I never dared to do it.
Look at the color, look at the workmanship, oh my, these rich people really know how to enjoy life. I’m afraid that the Queen Mother in heaven would also wear something like this!
Yu Caiwei grabbed the kind old lady's hand and moved it towards her sleeve, with an expression on her face that allowed her to touch as much as she wanted.
Then he asked, "Old lady, do you know where Liu Erhu's home is?"
The old woman was startled by Yu Caiwei's move. The next second, she felt the extraordinary touch in her hand. She immediately forgot about other people's instructions, and smiled so hard that her teeth were showing.
"Oh, you finally asked the right person. His house is right downstairs from mine!"
"Come on, come on, you are such a handsome young man. Come on! I have to go home to cook, so I will take you there!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he grabbed Yu Caiwei's arm and looked at Yu Caiwei's handsome face with starry eyebrows and bright eyes. The more he looked, the more he admired her.
This little girl is so fair and tender. There is no girl as beautiful as her in their village.
Yu Caiwei had no choice but to hand the reins to the person behind her, and then followed the old woman towards the village.
The few of them had just walked a short distance when the old man who was smoking a pipe snorted coldly. His triangular eyes were filled with gloom, and there was no sign of confusion at all.
"This old lady is really confused. She has forgotten everything the village chief told her. I have to follow her and see for myself!"
He immediately followed the few people, but after walking a few steps, he thought for a moment and turned into another road, leading to the most imposing house in the village.
Most of the one hundred households in Zhujia Village still live in thatched houses. At most, they mix thatch and mud to make earthen walls, and the roofs are still thatched.
The village chief's house, however, is a brick and tile house with five large rooms. Even the yard is paved with bluestone slabs. How can it look like a farmhouse?
The old man rushed up and kept knocking on the door. Seeing that no one opened it, he opened the door himself and went in.
In farmhouses and among neighbors in the village, there are basically no locked doors.
"Chunfu, are you home? There are strangers in the village!"
