Xiao Ning was still young, and she just listened to the excitement, so Wei Luo didn’t ask her. She just sat obediently in her mother’s arms, listening to her father asking her brothers to answer questions as he used to when he checked their homework.
Xiao Heng thought for a while and asked, “Father, did the old man of the Deng family really harm Housekeeper Sun’s family?”
“Killing innocent people is a crime. The old man of the Deng family has done many injustices, and it was retribution to end up like this. It is a pity for his family.”
Wei Luo asked, “Anything more?”
Xiao Heng was silent for a moment and said, “The government should investigate the case more rigorously, and not just look at who is the most suspected. As Father said, Deng Laosi is a dandy who only knows how to eat, drink, prostitute, and gamble. Seeing how much money he has lost, you can tell that he is not smart enough, so how can he do it? With such a meticulous plan, as long as we start from the sources of tung oil and drugs, in time, we will always be able to find Housekeeper Sun, who was in charge of purchase.”
Wei Luo looked at the eldest son, asking, “Anything more?”
Xiao Heng’s small face finally showing some nervousness, the fingers on his knees tightened slightly, and he racked his brains and said, “Also, the fact that Housekeeper Sun has been lurking in the Deng family for so long shows that the Deng family’s governance is not strict. If they found out that Housekeeper Sun has a fake identity, it would not have happened.”
Wei Luo nodded, still looking at Xiao Heng.
Xiao Heng really couldn’t think of anything else. If his father asked him to go back and think about it slowly, he might still be able to figure it out. Now being looked at by his father like that, he…
At that moment, Xiao Xun said, “Father, I have a feeling.”
Wei Luo looked at his youngest son.
Xiao Xun’s face quickly turned red, and under the watchful eyes of his father, elder brother, mother, and younger sister, he said, “My feeling is that Deng Laosi shouldn’t drink or gamble. If he studied hard and was filial to his parents, and was friendly to brothers. When this happened, others wouldn’t suspect him first. If he didn’t drink, that Housekeeper Sun wouldn’t hide the tung oil in it.”
Xiao Heng suddenly showed an expression of enlightenment. Why didn’t he think of it?
Wei Luo smiled, and asked Xiao Xun in the same way, “Anything more?”
Xiao Xun blushed even more, and shook his head.
Xiao Ning suddenly twitched in her mother’s arms, looked at her father, and said, “Don’t play with fire!”
The real child’s words destroyed the serious atmosphere in the room at once.
Yin Hui looked at her sons, and said with a smile, “Let’s stop here today. Father is going to rest, and you have to enter the palace tomorrow.” Both brothers nodded.
Yin Hui said to Xiao Xun again, “Do you want to sleep with your brother tonight?”
The case Wei Luo handled was murder and arson. Yin Hui was worried that the children would be afraid.
Before even Xiao Xun thought of it, Xiao Heng had already held his younger brother’s hand and said, “Let’s go, let’s sleep together.” The two brothers left, and Xiao Ning played for a while, and was taken away by the wet nurse.
Yin Hui then said to Wei Luo. “Seeing that you are tanned again, the investigation of this case was not so easy, was it?”
The case that had been delayed for a year was naturally not easy to investigate, but Wei Luo didn’t want to discuss the hardships, so he asked her about the situation in Beijing at that time.
The couple entered the inner room while talking.
For Yin Hui, everything in the capital was considered calm, and even if there were any undercurrents in the officialdom, she was not aware of them. In her previous life, a big event happened at that time; that was the rumor that Cui Yu was a eunuch spread in the capital overnight, and then Cui Yu resigned and left the capital. Cui Yu had been doing well in the new life; those forces that once wanted to run on him naturally had no reason to deal with Cui Yu.
Yin Hui mentioned the flower-viewing banquet in the middle of the month, “I saw the Fifth Sister-in-law, who is said to be a famous talented woman in Jinling.”
Wei Luo was not interested in the Fifth Sister-in-law who was about to enter the door.
Yin Hui wanted to tease him, so she sat beside him, looked at his cold face, and said, “The Second Sister-in-law said that the Fifth Sister-in-law doesn’t like to smile; she’s a bit like you.”
Wei Luo hugged her into his arms, raised her chin and said, “You’re getting more open.”
Yin Hui blinked her eyes, covered her mouth with her right hand, and said vaguely, “Now I got security.”
Wei Luo smiled, and it was fleeting, only a faint smile remained in his eyes.
Yin Hui looked into his eyes, moved her hand away, and hooked his neck instead.
Wei Luo thought she had thought about it, so he lowered his head.
Yin Hui avoided him, glanced at him lightly, lowered her eyes and said, “Speaking of you, you don’t like to smile. When we first got married, I was worried every day. I only felt that your face was sullen, all because you didn’t like me.”
Before the curtain was put down, the bright light fell on her, making her long and thick eyelashes cast two light shadows in front of her eyes, which was quite resentful.
Wei Luo also remembered how cautious she was at that time.
He held her hand and explained in a low voice, “I liked you.” However, he couldn’t have the gentleness of the Elder Brother or the flirtatiousness of the Second Brother.
Yin Hui hummed, “I know.”
Wei Luo raised his eyebrows, “How do you know?”
Yin Hui didn’t say anything, but slowly blushed.
When Wei Luo saw her, he also remembered the lingering moments with her at night during their wedding.
If he didn’t like her, how could it be endless?
