Chapter 5 Chapter Four Two Signature Letters

That bowl of calming soup was so effective, when Ye Wan woke up, it was already the afternoon of the next day, almost one o'clock.Not to mention breakfast, lunch has also ended, and now there is only her who is late at the table.When asked about her aunt, Mama Zhang replied that she had a lunch break. "Mum Zhang, when did you and Uncle Zhang come to Shen's house to do business?" Ye Wan asked Zhang Ma who brought hot dishes. familiar with. "Our husband and wife have come here to guard the house ten years ago." Zhang Ma said proudly, "In terms of qualifications, I am older than my wife."

Ye Wan let go of her hand, and the food she was holding nearly fell onto the table.The couple were here ten years ago, so do they know all about the tragedy ten years ago?Do you want to inquire about it?What happened ten years ago troubled her for a long time. Ye Wan really wanted to know what happened to the man who was hanged and killed. "Mother Zhang, ten..." Ye Wan wanted to inquire, but she was afraid of disturbing something, she scrambled between her teeth, and changed it to another question, "Why are the three rooms on the fourth floor called special rooms? What?"

Mama Zhang babbled and explained, but she couldn't explain anything, anyway, those three rooms were quite special, and no one else could enter except her aunt.Special, what is special?Why is an ordinary house so mysterious?The ruins here are quiet enough and weird enough, do we need to conceal mysterious things to set it off? "There is a herd of pigs possessed by ghosts, and there is a rose garden possessed by ghosts." Thinking of what Shen Dan said, Ye Wan wondered why the other party would say such words. Did Shen Dan know about the "Rose of the Ruins" ten years ago? garden"?I was still frightened by ghosts ten years ago, because I was afraid of ghosts, so I didn't want to sleep at night.

Ye Wan asked Zhang Ma casually, if this place is so remote, will it be haunted at night?From the corner of her eye, Ye Wan saw Mama Zhang's nervous and hesitant expression.Nervousness means that there is something similar to a ghost, and hesitation means that the other party does not know whether to say it or not. Someone may have blamed her for being suspicious. In the end, the talkative personality prevailed, and Zhang Ma walked up to Ye Wan and told in a low voice that she often saw ghosts before Mrs. Shen moved in.In the middle of the night, they always appeared in the living room downstairs, a dark ghost with a black head, faceless and skinless, so scared that she dared not go downstairs at night.Uncle Zhang didn't say anything, saying that she was old and dizzy, but she knew very well in her heart that it was a ghost.After Mrs. Shen and the others moved in, the ghosts disappeared, which shows that ghosts are afraid of people.

Zhang Ma's words shocked Ye Wan's mood again, ghosts always appear in the living room, is it related to the deceased ten years ago?Those who die will have lingering ghosts. This explanation is superstitious, but thinking of the dead man who was stabbed by a knife and hanged, Ye Wan still feels terrified. After lunch, Ye Wan stood in front of the cabinet in the living room and admired it. When she came yesterday, she was not in the mood to seriously appreciate it.This yellow wood cabinet, which is similar in color to the floor, is large, two meters wide, about 1.8 meters high, and about 60 centimeters thick.The objects displayed inside, Ye Wan was surprised to find that they were all objects of Western religions, such as Bibles, crosses, statues of Jesus, statues of the Virgin... Anyway, they were all such decorative objects.

He Yi walked down the stairs, walked to her side, explained to her the items in the cupboard, and listened to his explanation, as if he was very familiar with Western religions.Ye Wan asked him if he was a Western religious believer, how could he know these things so well.The other party did not shake his head or nod. After a few seconds of silence, he answered her that his ancestors were Catholics, and he had a Bible at home. He read it as a lover of books, so he knew a lot about Western religions. "I think people in the age of science should no longer accept superstition." Ye Wan expressed her point of view.

"Faith and superstition are two different things. Today's belief will not conflict with science. It is just a place for individuals to find a resting place for their hearts in the mundane world." He stopped talking after answering, and sat down on the sofa. common language. Ye Wan also sat down on the sofa, looking at He Yi who was reading again, reminding him that his job is to see patients, not to read books.The cynical reminder did not irritate the other party, He Yi smiled calmly and peacefully, showing his calm and kind character.He said his patients were quiet under his treatment.

"Then why, I always feel that she is not quiet." Ye Wan asked back. "Maybe it's because you just came here, and strangers are irritating to her." He Yi explained lightly. He is a doctor who loves to read. I don't know if it is because he has read the Bible that he has a Jesus-like serene temperament.But Ye Wan felt that the eyes behind his glasses were very strange, sometimes full of emotion and sometimes indifferent, he also had another kind of eyes, hidden between emotion and indifference, what was the complicated third kind of eyes, Ye Wan couldn't figure it out.

She wanted to learn something about Shen Dan from He Zong, but the other party was very alert and rejected her question, and cleverly shifted the topic to her, saying that she really deserves to be Mrs. Shen's niece. She can imagine what Mrs. Shen looked like when she was young.She also commented on her image. Like Mrs. Shen, her face is a typical oriental beauty face. Such a face shape with bangs is not good-looking, and it should show the plump and full forehead.Also, her white sweater is pretty good, but ordinary jeans should not be worn on the lower body, which reduces the value of the sweater. It should be paired with a high-end autumn skirt.

Ye Wan took a look at the white sweater on her body. This autumn sweater was bought by her aunt last year, and it was considered a relatively high-end autumn clothing in her closet.In order not to look poor, she wore this dress on purpose.She doesn't have high-end autumn dresses in her wardrobe. For poor people, high-end skirts lack practicality.Ye Wan didn't want him to change the topic, and was about to change the topic back when the doorbell of the outer courtyard rang. Not long after, a tall and thin woman with short hair permed appeared in front of the house. She was about the same age as Zhang's mother, and she was also in her fifties. Looking at her clothes, she could tell that she was a vulgar market woman.The woman stood at the door and called Zhang Ma, with the attitude of a master. Her fashionable clothes could not beautify her old and ordinary face, but looked vulgar.

Zhang Ma came out from the inside and waited for this woman to come in. It was obvious that she knew who came.The woman sat down on the sofa arrogantly, but greeted He Zong kindly with her unfriendly face, and they knew each other. "Is Aunt Wu here to see your daughter today?" He Yi asked respectfully. There are only two young women in this house, and she cannot be Aunt Wu's daughter, Ye Wan now knows the identity of this woman, she is Shen Dan's biological mother, also uncle's ex-wife.There's nothing wrong with a biological mother coming to see her daughter, but she didn't come here for that.The woman took out an envelope from her handbag and put it on the coffee table. It was an ordinary yellow registered envelope with a piece of printing paper attached to it. On the printing paper was the information of both parties, the recipient was "Wu Meilan", The address of the sender below is the address here, and the sender is "Shen Huawen". "I came here because of this letter." Wu Meilan put her legs on the sofa. Judging by her expression, she doesn't look like she has a mental problem, nor does she look like she's cheating.Maybe she divorced her uncle for a long time and didn't know anything about the Shen family. Ye Wan gently reminded her that Shen Huawen had died a year ago. "Who are you?" Wu Meilan looked at Ye Wan and asked. "She is Mrs. Shen's brother's daughter." He Yu who was sitting on the side immediately explained Ye Wan's identity. Knowing her identity, Wu Meilan looked at her with hostility. This hostile look was the fourth time Ye Wan felt it after coming here.Zhang Bo, Zhang Ma, Shen Dan and Wu Meilan all have hostility towards her, Ye Wan can understand the hostility of the latter two, because her aunt violated their family, as for the hostility between Zhang Bo and Zhang Ma, she can't figure it out . Wu Meilan took out the letter and handed it to He Yi. She felt strange because she knew that Shen Huawen was dead.The letter was received yesterday afternoon, asking her to arrive here before October 29th, and Shen Huawen will announce the heir to the property on October 29th.And October 29 is Shen Huawen's death day, which surprised her.At first I wanted to call and ask, but after thinking about it, there was no one to ask, so I might as well go to the door to find out. After reading the letter, He Yi gave it to Ye Wan, who also read it.There was not much content in the letter, just a few simple and clear words, that is to ask Wu Meilan to arrive here before October 29, if she does not come by the due date, her inheritance qualification will be cancelled.The letter is typed, but the signature underneath is handwritten. Who sent this letter and what is the purpose of sending this letter?Ye Wan couldn't find the answer, she looked at He Zong in puzzlement, hoping to get some answers from him.But He Yi didn't express anything, and read his book calmly and peacefully. Regarding this letter, he felt like drinking a glass of plain water without feeling anything. Wu Meilan asked Zhang's mother who brought tea to call Ye Caixia. Zhang's mother told Wu Meilan in embarrassment that Mrs. Shen was on her lunch break and would not get up until three o'clock, so she couldn't be woken up in between.Zhang Ma's answer angered Wu Meilan, just when the woman stood up and wanted to rush upstairs, the doorbell of the outer courtyard rang again. Three minutes later, Ye Wan heard the sound of a rolling door opening beside her, stood up, and saw a white car drive into the garage from the window.Three minutes later, a middle-aged man appeared at the door. His age should be less than fifty, but he was close to fifty.He has a crew cut, and his medium build is still well-proportioned, without showing the fatness of a middle-aged man.Wearing a crocodile brand knitted pullover and carrying a crocodile brand leather black bag, one can tell that he is a rich man.He is also very familiar with the people here. When Zhang Ma saw him, she immediately went over to change his shoes with enthusiasm, and went into the kitchen to prepare tea for him without the man's instructions. As soon as the man walked in, he made a playful sound, wondering why his former sister-in-law was here.Wu Meilan probably felt that his joking words were a kind of irony, so she satirized the man coldly with a downcast face, his sister-in-law was resting upstairs in the morning, so don't call the wrong person, call the wrong person, what should I do if Shen Huawen's anger is revived. Wu Meilan's words made the man laugh out loud, his eyes fell on Ye Wan, and he asked in surprise, "Who is this beautiful lady?" Ye Wan introduced herself politely, and the man smiled kindly when he heard that she was Ye Caixia's niece.He has no hostility towards her, from his conversation with Wu Meilan, Ye Wan already guessed that he is Shen Huaqi, uncle's younger brother.Although Shen Huaqi was kind to her, she didn't like him, and she didn't like Wu Meilan either. Both of them had a repulsive aura, treachery and hypocrisy. Shen Huaqi sat down on the sofa, glanced at the letter on the coffee table, took it out and looked at it, with a hint of confusion flashing across his expression.Wu Meilan, who sat back on the sofa, pointed at the letter and talked nonsense, and asked Shen Huaqi what he thought of the letter.Shen Huaqi did not speak, put down the letter, took out a letter from his own bag and threw it on the coffee table.This is the same yellow registered letter as Wu Meilan's, and the content inside is also the same. The only difference is that the addressee on the envelope says "Shen Huaqi". It seems that the reason why he came here today is also because of this letter. Wu Meilan sneered and urged Shen Huaqi to wake up Ye Caixia to clarify the matter, but Shen Huaqi did not listen to Wu Meilan's instigation, took a sip of the tea brought by Zhang Mama, and said that he called yesterday, and Ye Caixia didn't know what was going on.Looking at Shen Huaqi's expression from the hot tea, it can be seen that he is on Ye Caixia's side. "Since the letter says that the heir to the property will be announced on October 29, the two of you might as well stay here and find out the truth on the 29th." He Yi looked at the two letters and made a suggestion. This suggestion fits Shen Huaqi and Wu Meilan's thoughts, even if He Zong didn't mention it, Ye Wan can tell that these two people intend to stay.Wu Meilan urged Zhang Ma to take her to choose a room, but Zhang Ma went upstairs reluctantly, with a flustered expression on her face.Ye Wan understood Mama Zhang's panic. These two signed letters made people feel like the uncle who died unjustly sent letters to these two people in the underworld to appeal for his grievances on the day of his death. Today is October 27th, and the day after tomorrow is October 29th, and it will soon be clear what happened.Who is lying and what is the purpose of lying?Ye Wan didn't dare to make guesses. Guessing would only make her perfect aunt into an evil character.
