Lu Xuan nodded: "But there is no evidence. The fourth brother's brain is almost broken. He himself can't even remember how he got there."
"Then the old man died, and I came out again. Old Seven started getting close to the other brothers again, and nothing happened after that." Lu Xuan's voice was low: "But I could never get close to him."
"The revelation of his conspiracy with Tao Xing when he was in college further confirmed my belief. If he was deceived by that old man when he was four or five, and he was able to conspire with Tao Xing to squeeze out Lao Wu's place when he was sixteen or seventeen, and then wanted to dump Tao Xing after entering college, it makes me completely certain that he has been a crooked person since childhood."
"Anyone can take advantage of it for their own benefit."
Chen Wu asked, "Then you haven't questioned Lu Ming about this?"
Lu Xuan shook his head slightly: "I can't ask him, he is better at hiding things than the others."
Chen Wu sighed, "It has to be treated with peach and apricot."
"What about the things the old man brought out of the palace? Were they all taken away?" Chen Wu asked curiously.
Lu Xuan shook his head: "Those people took some, and Old Seven should have some too. I took some, but none of it can be exchanged for money. They are all valuable things from the palace. Selling them now will cause a lot of trouble and they are not worth much."
Chen Wu was surprised: "Third brother, you are quite impressive. You even have this understanding."
Lu Xuan's mouth curled up slightly: "I buried it in the back mountain, deep in the mountains. When I get back, I'll dig it out and you can see it. There is a golden gourd."
"There's also a jade bracelet, a jade ruyi, and some other odds and ends. I dug these out from under his house. I don't recognize some of them, but I guess he hid them specifically. They're good stuff."
If I had come out of the palace, these things would still be worth a lot of money in the future, so my labor reform would not have been in vain.
Thinking of this, Shen Wu actually still felt uncomfortable. Thinking of Lu Xuan in the photo, she leaned in and kissed him on the lips: "Third brother, I feel sorry for you."
"This is very uncomfortable." Shen Wu poked Lu Xuan's heart with her finger.
Lu Xuan coughed lightly, his eyes fixed on the cute little face and tender pink lips: "Can you please not make any sound?"
Shen Wu was stunned for a moment before she reacted and swallowed her saliva: "I don't think it will work. Don't even think about it. Let's talk about it when we get home. Besides, there's nowhere to put it."
Seeing his daughter sleeping soundly, Lu Xuan sighed, "That's right."
As he said that, he hugged Chen Wu tightly. The two of them hugged each other tightly for a long time, listening to each other's heartbeats. There was a rare silence in the room. Only Lu Xuan went to take another cold shower.
When she came out, her wife had already fallen asleep holding the child.
Lu Xuan looked at the two of them quietly, his eyes softening. He didn't tell Chen Wu that they had been in that farm for a long time and had formed gangs. He beat the leader the most seriously and was also injured quite a bit himself.
The solitary confinement cell was not big, with only a palm-sized window. I ate, drank, defecated and urinated in there. It wasn't physically painful, but I felt... hopeless.
The sun was so bright that it stung his eyes and his whole body was in pain. He fainted.
In the past, he had felt all sorts of dissatisfaction and reluctance, but now, looking at the two people beside him, Lu Xuan felt that he was lucky to have made it through, lucky to have married her, and they even had a child...

Xu Yin was busy for three consecutive days before she could spare one day to be with them.
"Is there anything you want to buy in the provincial capital?"
Shen Wu leaned closer to Xu Yin and lowered her voice: "Let's buy some books. When the exams resume, do you want to apply to university?"
Xu Yin thought for a moment and said, "I'll take the exam. Otherwise, I would have graduated from fifth grade by now."
Chen Wu wasn't much better, having graduated from the fourth grade.
However, her family did not allow her to study and asked her to stay at home to do housework and take care of Shen Jizu.
Xu Yin was different. She went to school in the middle of winter. She went out early every day with a kerosene lamp. Her hands were frozen and ulcerated. Xu Yin didn't want to go to school, and her mother felt sorry for her daughter, so she didn't go.
"This degree is a bit embarrassing to mention later, so I might as well take a higher exam."
Now to find study books, we have to go to the scrap station. Xu Yin and Shen Wu went to the scrap station, and Lu Xuan and Lu Ye came out, saying that they wanted to take some things back.
Some things in the city don’t require tickets, but you still have to fight for them. Compared to the things in the countryside, they are newer and easier to sell when you take them back.
Chen Wu told him: "Don't buy too much." She was afraid something might happen.
Lu Xuan: "I know, things are valuable because they are rare."
What they said seemed to be different, but it was good that the result they reached was the same.
Xu Yin was holding a full bag, wearing black slightly loose trousers and a white shirt.
Chen Wu was wearing a white dress and carrying a red cloth bag on her shoulder. It was a very large bag, filled with things that she packed as if it were her mommy. Outside, Wang Hua also showed her a little black dog, drawn according to the cartoon lines of Chen Wu.
When she came out with Xu Yin, many people turned their heads to look at her. They looked at Xu Yin and then at her.
Another young girl ran towards her and Xu Yin, blushing and asking, "Can I ask where you bought this skirt and this bag?"
"My relative made it for me, but she's in the county, not here."
The girl was a little disappointed when she heard this.
Chen Wu said, "How about I write you a contact number, and you can write to her and tell her your height and size. If she needs help making it for you, I can also mail the fabric to her."
People in the city have jobs and money, and her family treats her very well. She can save more than ten yuan a month. Seeing Chen Wu dressed so beautifully, she was crazy about it.
"I'll give it to you first, so you don't regret it later and can't find anyone. I'll give you the information and you can decide for yourself."
