All the money was emptied on the way to exile, and there was too much money to spend

Chapter 214 The way out is to marry into the Xie family as a concubine?

The old lady didn't expect Xie Lin to get up so early.

Seeing him, the old lady explained, "Did you see the families living by the river yesterday? Your eldest brother and second brother went to see them this morning, and someone in one of the families passed away."

"Ok?"

Xie Lin raised his eyes slightly. "How did he die? Did he freeze to death?"

"That's probably it."

The old lady replied, "I'm going to ask Hao to take a look."

"Grandma, I'll go."

Xie Lin thought about it and felt that it would be appropriate for him to go and take a look.

Of course it’s not that Xie Wenhao can’t go, but isn’t there a little girl named Wei Hua in the family?

Although there was nothing wrong with her playing with Yunying and the others, if they wanted to go to the woods in the back mountains, they would still have to have someone with better skills accompany them.

And it is obvious that Xie Wenhao is such a skilled person.

Xie Lin regarded him as the bodyguard of Xie Yunying and the others.

The old lady had no objection to Xie Lin's arrangement.

"Thank you for your hard work, San'er. Do you want to go back and tell Xiaochan about this?"

"It's okay grandma, I'll go take a look and be back soon."

After he went to take a look and came back, it didn't affect his wife so she could see him as soon as she opened her eyes.

…………

Hu Quezi's home.

With the help of Wang Da and the others, Hu Quezi had changed into his cleanest clothes, washed his face, and lay on the thin straw mat on the bed.

After staying for a while, it's time to roll up the straw mat, carry the person out of the house, and bury him at the foot of a distant mountain.

At this time and under these conditions, being able to wrap the body in a straw mat is already a very good treatment.

These people all fled from outside. On the way, they saw too many people whose bodies were mutilated.

Even their relatives are included.

Not only did they fail to properly bury those relatives who were trampled to death by the bandits, they couldn't even collect their bodies.

After his death, Hu Quezi was able to have a straw mat and be buried decently in the ground. In that era, this was already very lucky.

The door of the Hu family's small wooden shed was open. Hu Yingying was kneeling on the ground, burning paper money and crying.

The paper money was lent to her by other people.

The Hu family was extremely poor.

People who fled from outside together may not have a very deep relationship, but at least their relationship is closer than that of ordinary neighbors.

Seeing Hu Yingying crying so sadly, some people who can only tear tears easily couldn't help but wipe their eyes.

"Yingying..."

Wang Liu walked up to Hu Yingying, put her hand on her shoulder and comforted her, "Please accept my condolences. Let your uncle go well."

Wang Liu is Wang Da's daughter-in-law.

She was dark and thin, but she was good at work. Compared with Hu Yingying, who was weak and helpless, she was much better at work.

Hu Yingying raised her head and fell into Wang Liu's arms in grief.

"Sister-in-law, my father...my father is gone. What should I do in the future?"

Life in this world is already extremely difficult.

For an orphan with no one to rely on, life would be even more difficult.

Wang Liu said nothing.

Because she also didn't know what Hu Yingying should do in the future?

She raised her head and looked at the brothers Xie Chang and Xie Yuan standing outside the door.

They have a large family, a wealthy family background, and a simple family structure.

Thinking about what her mother-in-law had said before, she couldn't help but frowned.

My mother-in-law said before that if one of them was willing to take Yingying as a concubine, then Yingying would not have to worry about the rest of her life...

Of course, this was not what Wang Liu thought.

But it was her mother-in-law's idea.

Her mother-in-law mentioned this when she first settled down here.

But Hu Quezi was still alive at that time, and he was firmly opposed to his daughter becoming someone else's concubine.

Wang Luo mentioned it once, but was rejected by Hu Quezi, so she didn't feel like mentioning it again.

But Wang Liu knew that neither her mother-in-law nor her cousin Hu Yingying had given up this idea.

Wang Liu was a woman of modest means, and she was not as opinionated as her mother-in-law and her cousin.

Until now, she still thinks that being a concubine is not a good thing.

"Big brother, second brother."

A clearer voice was heard outside, interrupting Wang Liu's thoughts.

Xie Lin, wearing a brocade robe and black boots, looked particularly tall and eye-catching in the snow-white sky.

Although he is only 22 years old, his face has a calm temperament that is no less than that of a 30-year-old.

When Xie Chang and Xie Yuan saw him, a faint smile appeared on their faces.

"Are you up already?"

"Didn't you sleep a little longer?"

The two brothers were teasing the younger one.

Although they are a family, they are all men. Sometimes, even if what they say does not explain what is going on, the meaning is clear enough for people to understand.

The two brothers were teasing him and had not slept all night.

The corners of Xie Lin's lips slightly raised.

Glancing at his two brothers.

"I slept too long and I'm afraid you'll be jealous, so I'm getting up now."

Xie Chang: ...

Xie Yuan: ...

Listen to this brother, is he speaking human language?

What do you mean they will be envious and jealous if you sleep too long?

They talk as if they don't have wives.

The two brothers were just about to have a good talk with their younger brother.

But Xie Lin seemed to see through their inner thoughts, "You have wives, but you also have children in your bed."

Xie Chang and Xie Yuan's hearts were once again deeply hurt!

There's no way to continue this topic, there's really no way to continue.

If I continue talking, I will only bring shame upon myself.

Yes, it was the two brothers who brought shame upon themselves...

Xie Chang and Xie Yuan looked up to the sky and sighed.

Xie Lin stood in the snow, unaffected.

Wang Da heard the noise inside, he walked outside and saw Xie Lin.

He immediately and politely asked about his identity.

"This is my third brother."

Xie Chang replied.

Wang Da immediately called out, "Hello, Third Master."

Xie Lin nodded slightly.

He glanced inside the house. "Are you the son of this family?"

"No, this is my uncle. My uncle has only one daughter." Speaking of his deceased relatives, Wang Da's eyes became red again.

The tall and strong farmer also had tears in his eyes at this moment.

Xie Lin frowned slightly, glanced at his elder and second brothers, and after giving them a look, he asked Wang Da, "Did the old man go there last night?"

"Yes."

Wang Da wiped his eyes and answered, "We fled from Lingnan and finally came here. We met your kind family. You gave us food, land, and a place to live."

"But my uncle was a man of little fortune. He didn't have a few days of peace and quiet. He passed away just like that..."

After Wang Da finished speaking with sobs, Hu Yingying, who was kneeling in the room, began to sob again.

Xie Lin glanced inside the wooden house, and walked forward. "Do you mind if I go take a look at the body?"
