Chapter 252: Or Let Huaigeer Marry That Girl
It just so happened that Mrs. Wei's cough had almost healed after Xingxing took good care of her using the knowledge she learned from Daxisi Po.
When Yu Sanbao told his family about Huai'er's wrongful imprisonment, Li Chunhua almost fainted.
Yu Daniu hurriedly picked up his wife.
"Brother Huai!" Li Chunhua was very excited when she came to her senses. She pulled away Yu Daniu's hand and tried to run out.
Yu Daniu hurriedly pulled and pushed, and finally managed to pull Li Chunhua down.
Li Chunhua's reaction was too big. Although Mrs. Wei and Old Man Yu were also very anxious, they also knew that they had to calm down the matter, otherwise there would be chaos in the family.
"Okay, old lady, don't be anxious." Mrs. Wei sighed.
"Since this was the drug given by the thief Caihua, my brother Huai is also a victim. What does it have to do with him?" Li Chunhua grabbed Yu Daniu's arm, her face flushed with anxiety.
Yu Daniu had some similar thoughts, but he was not as out of control as Li Chunhua. He suppressed his anxiety and looked at Yu Sanbao: "...what did the government say?"
Yu Sanbao said, "I asked Mr. Liu to help. The case will be tried tomorrow. The government said that Huai and the girl are both victims. Otherwise, let Huai marry the girl, give her an explanation, and close the case."
As soon as these words came out, the room fell silent.
Li Chunhua also forgot about the struggle and murmured, "This, this is also fine..." She thought of something and became excited again, "That prison is not a place for human beings!"
Yu Daniu didn't say anything. It was obvious that he thought the same thing. He said slowly, "We have to give the girl an explanation."
Yu Sanbao sighed, "Don't get excited, sister-in-law. I always feel that there is something fishy about this matter. It's just too coincidental."
Li Chunhua was very anxious: "But if Huai'er stays there for a day, I feel like my heart is being cut by a knife..."
Yu Sanbao could understand, and he consoled her, "Don't worry, sister-in-law. Isn't the trial tomorrow? As for the situation in prison, don't worry too much. Old Master Liu has already informed the county magistrate, and no one will deliberately torture Huai'er."
Li Chunhua nodded reluctantly, trying not to sound so broken: "...Then, tomorrow..."
Mrs. Wei, who had been listening silently, spoke up: "Let's all go there tomorrow and listen to how the case is tried... Since the girl is already our Huai'er's, we have to give her an explanation."
Li Chunhua nodded repeatedly.
If it can bring Huai'er's safety, she is willing to do anything.
Not to mention marrying a daughter-in-law, she would be willing to bring the girl back home and keep her as a worshipper.
That's how it was settled.
Li Chunhua was still uneasy, and murmured: "Mom, my heart is always beating. Why don't I go to the Taoist temple on the mountain to worship."
Mrs. Wei nodded: "I'll go with you."
"Xingxing also wants to pray for big brother!" A childish voice came from outside the door, and Xingxing stepped over the threshold with her short legs and ran in.
Following behind was Ju Ge'er, who looked upset because he didn't hold on to Xing Xing.
Apparently, these two little ones were eavesdropping.
Mrs. Wei always doted on Xingxing. She would not refuse Xingxing's request to go to the Taoist temple. She just tapped Xingxing's head and said, "From now on, when the adults discuss things, you children should not be allowed to eavesdrop. Do you understand?"
Xing Xing nodded obediently: "Grandma, Xing Xing knows."
Ju Ge'er felt bad and said quickly, "Grandma, don't blame Xing Xing. I wanted to know what you were talking about, so I forced Xing Xing to come here."
Xing Xing exclaimed, "Ah!" and whispered, "Ju Ge'er, don't say that. We did this bad thing together."
The two children were rushing to admit their mistakes, which somewhat dispelled the depressing atmosphere in the room.
Yu Sanbao harnessed the carriage and took Wei Pozi, Li Chunhua and Xingxing to the foot of the mountain where the Wuming Taoist temple was located.
Going further up, the mountain road becomes difficult to walk on.
Mrs. Wei Li Chunhua had to walk there.
"Mother, sister-in-law, I'll be waiting for you at the foot of the mountain." Yu Sanbao parked the carriage by the roadside.
Mrs. Wei nodded, took Xingxing's hand, and walked up the mountain with Li Chunhua.
They have walked this route many times and are very familiar with it.
But when Li Chunhua thought that Huai Ge'er used to practice horse riding and martial arts on the mountain every day, but now he was locked up in a dark prison, she felt sad.
When they arrived at the Taoist temple, it happened that the old Taoist priest was sweeping the main hall. When he saw Mrs. Wei and Li Chunhua coming, he was stunned at first, and then he realized something was wrong.
Mrs. Wei was fine, but she looked a little unhappy.
Li Chunhua's eyes were red, and it looked like she had been crying.
The old Taoist's heart skipped a beat.
Could something have happened to Huai'er?
He hesitated to speak and asked Mrs. Wei and Li Chunhua to burn incense first.
This time, Xingxing lit three incense sticks very piously, knelt on the cushion in front of the statue, bowed with the incense in her little hands, and muttered something.
The old Taoist priest stood aside and waited until Mrs. Wei, Li Chunhua and Xingxing finished their worship before he spoke: "...but what happened at home?"
When the old Taoist priest asked this question, Li Chunhua almost burst into tears.
She choked with tears and said, "Master, this is our Huai brother..."
Mrs. Wei also sighed and briefly explained the matter.
The old Taoist frowned: "This, this is too coincidental..."
He thought of something again, and hesitated to speak. In the end, he sighed and said nothing. He just sighed and asked when the trial would be held tomorrow: "...I will go and see it then."
Seeing that Li Chunhua was still worried, the old Taoist thought for a moment, took out a lottery stick from behind the shrine, and handed it to Li Chunhua: "If you are really worried, why not draw a lot."
Li Chunhua took it, hesitated for a moment, and handed the lottery ticket tube to Xingxing.
She said to Xingxing with expectation: "Xingxing, you are the most blessed child in our family. Come and help your aunt draw the lottery to see if your big brother can turn the bad luck into good luck tomorrow."
Xingxing responded solemnly, holding the lottery tube with her two little hands and shaking it.
As a result, a stick fell.
Li Chunhua herself was a little stunned. Shaking the lot, is it so fast?
She picked up the stick from the ground and handed it to the old Taoist priest, feeling a little uneasy: "...It's too fast, will it be inaccurate?"
The old Taoist priest smiled as soon as he saw the fortune: "...Don't worry, this is a very good fortune. Brother Huai will be safe and sound tomorrow!"
Li Chunhua has always believed in this nameless Taoist temple and thought it was very effective. After hearing the old Taoist priest's words, she was so excited that she trembled slightly: "God bless you, God bless you!"
She hugged Xingxing and said, "I said that our Xingxing is the most blessed!"
Mrs. Wei finally smiled and asked the old Taoist priest if she could let Xingxing draw the lots for her to predict tomorrow's bad luck. The old Taoist priest agreed.
Mrs. Wei gave the lottery box to Xingxing and asked Xingxing to draw for her.
Xing Xing shook the lottery stick box again, and just after shaking it twice, a lottery stick "impatiently" jumped out of the box.
The old Taoist priest was also amazed.
Looking at the lottery again, it is naturally an excellent lottery.
Good luck!
Mrs. Wei and Li Chunhua looked at each other, both of them with excitement on their faces.
It looks like Huai'er will be fine tomorrow!
