Chapter 40 Xue Chen

Chapter 40 Xue Chen

It was sunny and windless, and a few people were walking on a country road.

"Stop, brother, is your surname Xue?"

Ji Xuan suddenly stopped someone.

After the incident, they went to Matchmaker Wang and the Zhang family to ask the painter to draw a portrait of the boy from the Xue family who was married to a girl from the Zhang family.

Ji Xuan has naturally seen it once or twice. Now that she has seen the real person, she naturally has some impressions.

"Yes, I'm Xue Chen." Xue Chen nodded and looked at the four of them with a confused look on his face.

He was wearing a white washed coarse cloth robe. It was not a bright color, but light blue, and there were no patterns on it.

This man is not tall, but good-looking. He has a square face, dark skin, narrow eyebrows, and a relatively low nose bridge.

It's the kind that doesn't look very good at first glance, but looks good upon closer inspection.

Ji Xuan nodded. He remembered that the boy from the Xue family was indeed called this, and continued: "Ji Xuan from the next school, this is my colleague. I dare to ask you if you don't have anything now, if not, can you share it with us?

Let’s talk.” Ji Xuan said and raised her finger to point in the direction of Fang Wu.

At this time, there were only two people, Fang Wu and Ji Xuan.

Bai An and Zhang Xuan moved elsewhere, and now they often investigate cases and settle lawsuits in different combinations.

A look flashed in Xue Chen's eyes and he said, "Okay."

"I heard that you were married to a girl from the Zhang family not far away. How is it now?" Ji Xuan asked.

His question was simple, but it was just a casual greeting, and he didn't refer to any case. The matter was so important that he didn't dare to open the question.

After all, girls will get married in the future, no matter what, they cannot ignore it.

Besides, there are a lot of big and small things going on in this county. We can't let people know their purpose from the beginning. If it were leaked to anyone, wouldn't it be self-defeating?

"Yes, we broke off the engagement about two months ago." Xue Chen said calmly, but there was a touch of sadness in his eyes, but he didn't show it on his face.

Naturally, Fang Wu and Wu didn't notice it, they just felt it lightly. Maybe the relationship between the two was really not that good.

"What do you do at home? Where do you go on weekdays?" Fang Wu asked.

She saw that Ji Xuan was not ready to post a message at the moment, so she also interrupted.

This is a word that seems like you don’t want to do it but you still want to do it.

"There is no real business. I chop firewood for wealthy families and grow some fruits and vegetables all day long."

Tea bucket cricket."

It doesn't sound like there's anything wrong with it, it's a day of fun.

"Are you responsible for delivering firewood and food?" Ji Xuan asked.

Xue Chen did not hesitate: "Yes, this is just an errand, why bother finding the same person twice."

"What is your family's reaction to the divorce?" Ji Xuan said intermittently: "In other words, is it your man's side or their woman's that will break the engagement?"

"We." Xue Chen said.

This sentence was said without hesitation and as a matter of course, as if it was true.

But they got other statements from the Zhang family. The Zhang family said that the marriage was theirs and had nothing to do with the Xue family.

How come there are two answers to this matter? Laughing people inside and outside find it strange.

"But the Zhang family said it was them. Don't you know much about this matter?" Fang Wu was stunned. The two of them looked at each other, and Fang Wu said,

She stared at Xue Chen's face carefully during this question, fearing that she would miss something.

"Maybe it's because I'm not clear about it, because my parents are handling this matter. Yes, I don't really care about my parents' orders." Xue Chen followed Fang Wu's words and changed his words.

When he changed his words, he didn't feel that there was anything wrong or embarrassing about what he said. In short, his face and words came naturally, and there was no discomfort at all.

"Why were you so sure just now?"

"But now he says he doesn't know." "Don't you think there is a contradiction in this?" "Have you ever seen that girl from the Zhang family after you got engaged?"

"What do you think of the girl from the Zhang family? What did your mother say when she introduced you to the girl from the Zhang family?"

As soon as Xue Chen said those words, Ji Xuan frowned and asked several questions in succession. He stared at Xue Chen while asking questions.

It looked good at first glance, and there was no pause in his tone. He didn't want to give Xue Chen time to think about it.

He felt that the person in front of him was not as simple as they seemed.

"My parents' orders, the matchmaker's words, whatever my mother said, I listened to. Naturally, I didn't know what she said, but I naturally believed what my mother said, so I thought that was it. How could I know...

…”

"After we got engaged, he probably hasn't seen her before, right? He just said that the girl from the Zhang family was prettier and asked me what I thought."

Xue Chen answered one by one. Even though Ji Xuan asked questions quickly, he still spoke calmly.

Every sentence is in order.

Isn’t that right? What mother would lie to her child? So we probably believe what our parents say.

But after all, it was something I heard, not something I saw with my own eyes.

"Can I ask something more private, about the conditions for your marriage?" Fang Wu asked.

"It's nothing, just a few sets of clothes, a few stones of food. By the way, I also packed out an empty cabinet, which is still empty." Xue Chen said nonchalantly.

It seems that this issue is nothing worth worrying about for him.

The two nodded, said a few more words, and then left...

"What do you think?"

"I think the relationship between the two is not very simple. They don't like each other, but they should think that they are a good marriage."

Fangwu Road.

Pushing each other back and shouldering each other's responsibilities, isn't that what marriage is all about at the beginning?

"It is indeed as you said, but as we often ask these days, it seems that the Xue family and the Zhang family are not very close."

Fang Wu nodded, turned around and asked: "By the way, in our case files, is there any connection between Su San and the Zhang family and the Xue family?"

"The Zhang family has them, but the Xue family doesn't, but I think they must have seen each other before. After all, the scope of activities is similar." Ji Xuan thought for a moment before saying.

The two of them continued talking and slowly walked back to the Yamen.

The four of them have made an appointment to go find Mr. Qin together at the end of Shen Shi. This time is coming soon.

There has been some slight progress.

There are some gains there.

Zhang Xuan blocked a young man from the Xu family in a dead end. The young man could not get out. He was so frightened by the two that he huddled in the corner and could not say a single word.

Yes, Zhang Xuan looks like a wild bully at first glance, and Bai An is also scary-looking. It doesn't matter how you look at it, these two people stand together and bully the good.
