Chapter 151



【Father-in-law Chapter 26】 ​​Chance Encounter

Fulai stood in front of the woman, with his arms outstretched to block her, but because she was a woman, he could not touch or pull her at will, so he could only use his body to block her.

Just kidding, the master was still in the car, and as a good servant, he would never let anyone disturb the master's work.

"Get out of the way! I remember you are my brother-in-law's servant, is this my brother-in-law in the car!? Get out of the way, let me see my brother-in-law!"

Fulai stood firmly in front of the car, "Miss, you recognized the wrong person, the people in the car are my master and my wife, and my wife doesn't have any sisters, don't try to be a relative!"

This time, the master had told him that he was traveling incognito, and his identity and name were not his own, so Fulai was extremely vigilant.

Although Fulai knew that the old man had a first wife who died of illness, and vaguely remembered that the first wife had a younger sister, even if the girl in front of him was really the old man's wife's sister, he could not admit it just because she made such a fuss.

What's more, although the old man's wife's family was down and out, they were also officials, so how could they be here. This beggar-like woman was obviously trying to scam people.

The woman shook her head, "No, it's impossible. My sister died of illness a long time ago, and my brother-in-law has never remarried in these years. You are talking nonsense!"

"Hey, you little girl, why are you cursing people nonsense! My wife is fine! What's the point of dying of illness or not!"

Chu Jiao lifted the curtain at this time.

"Fulai, don't be rude."

Chu Jiao's eyes and eyebrows were full of spring at this moment. Although only half of her face was exposed, her bright and elegant facial features made people who saw her admire her. What a beautiful girl.

"Yes, ma'am!"

The master spoke, and Fulai respectfully stepped aside.

Chu Jiao first glanced around with the corner of her eyes. They were still on the official road, but a group of refugees gathered on the side road, looking at this side and whispering.

She looked at the woman in front of her carefully again.

The woman was about the same age as her, also in her twenties, and her oval face was covered with dirt and dust. She was wearing a coarse linen dress, her hair was messy, and her eyes were sad, but you could still see her beautiful figure and appearance. Her face was a mixture of joy and anxiety, as if she was expecting the person in the car to be the "brother-in-law" she was talking about.

Although Chu Jiao didn't hear the whole conversation between the two, she also overheard a little, so she also had a guess about the identity of the woman in front of her.

Chu Jiao's mind turned around, and with a gentle smile, she said to the woman in front of her, "Young lady, don't be anxious, just say whatever you want to say slowly."

"I can understand that you are eager to find your relatives, but my husband and I have just got married, and we are each other's first spouse. You must have recognized the wrong person."

"But we are all women. If you have any difficulties, you can tell me. We will definitely help where we can."

Chu Jiao said this simply and straightforwardly, explaining clearly the information that the woman had misled others just now, and then generously extended a helping hand, making it impossible to blame.

After seeing Chu Jiao, the woman stopped shouting and had a shocked expression.

Lin Wenyue's tears were about to fall, but they were originally intended to be seen by her brother-in-law in the carriage.

She had a good memory. Although she was only young when her sister got married, she still remembered the appearance of Fu Lai who was always busy.

As for her brother-in-law, she only saw him from a distance at the wedding banquet and never saw him again. She only remembered that he was an extremely handsome man.

The Lin family has fallen into decline in recent years. They thought that after marrying Lin Wenyuan to the Shen family, they would get help from the in-laws, but they didn't expect that the Shen family would not care at all. Aunt Shen Zhen would send Fu Lai some gifts during festivals, but she would never lend a hand in official circles.

After Lin Wenyuan passed away, the two families gradually stopped dealing with each other.

In the past few months, the court has been making big moves. First, it donated official positions to relieve disasters, and then it collected the money owed by the national treasury. The Lin family has long been overwhelmed by this big wave. The children of the Lin family also borrowed money from the national treasury when they were officials. The family sold everything they could, and even mortgaged their house, to collect the debts and avoid imprisonment. But the patriarch also decided to move away from the capital and return to the ancestral home to seek other development.

Lin Wenyue was proud of being a lady from an official family. All her good sisters were married, and they were all good families with status and property. She also imagined what kind of talent her future husband would be.

But at this time, she had to move her family to a remote town where she thought everyone was a low-class person. How could she be willing to do that ?

But she was unwilling but had no choice.

She was still taken on a carriage heading south.

Lin Wenyue was still unwilling in her heart. She missed the capital, the prosperity and bustle there, and her previous wealthy life.

So she escaped under the cover of night. She

wanted to escape back to the capital to seek help from her brother-in-law.

Her brother-in-law loved her sister so much, he would definitely help her, wouldn't he?

But the young lady who never left the house had no idea how dangerous the world was. The next day, she was targeted by a group of refugees.

All the silver and jewelry on her were robbed. The leader saw that she was good-looking and planned to sell her to a trafficker in exchange for silver.

Lin Wenyue was extremely scared. She wanted to escape, but she was being watched closely. She was petite and weak, so she was miserable after just a few days. When she

met Shen Zhen's carriage today, she thought he was a stranger and was worried that she would get out of the tiger's den and fall into the wolf's den. But when she saw Fu Lai, she was ecstatic.

Sure enough, God is kind to her!

Her brother-in-law is her hero from heaven!

But why is there such a beautiful woman sitting in her brother-in-law's carriage! ?

And what this beautiful woman said also surprised her.

Could it be that she really recognized the wrong person?

No, it won't happen.

My brother-in-law will not marry someone else!

Lin Wenyue was still struggling with her conscience, but Shen Zhen in the carriage was impatient.

He put his arms around Chu Jiao's waist and brought her back to his arms. The car curtain also fell, blocking Lin Wenyue's entire view outside the car.

He felt that he was extremely unlucky. He finally managed to be affectionate with the little girl, but someone messed things up.

Moreover, this person was related to his previous marriage.

He hoped that the little girl would not be angry.

Although Shen Zhen behaved properly and had never touched his original wife, he heard from the emperor that women would always mind if their men had had other women. Even if they said they didn't care, they were very upset in their hearts.

Shen Zhen was a little uneasy.

So he was unhappy with this ex-wife's sister who messed things up before he even met her.
