Chapter 63: Only in dreams can we meet
After Huo Chuan stabilized Shen Yunyou, he went straight to Aunt Zhong's yard. Although he had asked people to take Aunt Zhong's body away, he had not dealt with her room and the people in her yard.
He didn't want to face it, he didn't speak, and of course no one would move. Until now, Aunt Zhong's room still remains the same as when she died.
"Sir. The few remaining maids in Aunt Zhong's yard were so frightened that they stepped aside when they saw Huo Chuan, after all, Huo Chuan killed a maid in this yard with his own hands not long ago.
Huo Chuan couldn't control them, he went straight to Aunt Zhong's room and pushed the door open.
However, it was not cleaned for a few days. There was a lot of dust in the room, the broken bowl still on the floor, and there was no sign of the room being touched. It's just that?? Huo Chuan propped his hands on the table, there were obviously a lot of rose cakes in the plate before, but now there was nothing.
He can't be mistaken. When he came to see Aunt Zhong for the last time, he looked at the plate of rose cakes and was stunned for a long time.
His hand slowly grasped the edge of the table, it seemed that Aunt Zhong had really been killed, if not, why would anyone be in a hurry to dispose of the rose cake.
The person who knows Aunt Zhong's preferences best, except for Yixiang who is locked up, there is only one.
Huo Chuan walked out of Aunt Zhong's courtyard with a complicated mood, and walked in the garden for a while, the murderous aura on his face finally faded a little, and he found Huo Tian.
"Big brother, why are you here?" Huo Tian has always been a little afraid of him, and Huo Chuan can't tell whether he is weak or not.
"I heard the singing in the street, and suddenly I remembered her, and I came here. Huo Chuan replied, and Huo Tian's face froze almost instantly.
Aunt Zhong has always been a taboo between the two, and Huo Chuan actually took the initiative to mention her today.
Huo Tian only felt his heart beating like thunder, but he still reluctantly said: "The person is no longer there, don't be sad eldest brother." “
"I have never cared about her well over the years, and I am even thinking that if I had fulfilled you, things would not have come to this point" Huo Chuan sighed.
When Huo Tian rescued Aunt Zhong. just wanted to take her with him, but after Huo Chuan saw her a few times, he showed his liking.
Huo Tian was under pressure. took the initiative to send Aunt Zhong over. After all, Aunt Zhong is just a woman he likes for him, and Huo Chuan is someone he has to rely on all his life, so he can't and doesn't dare to anger Huo Chuan.
After Aunt Zhong entered the Huo Mansion, she became moody and silent, and she slowly became the person who could not be spoken between the two brothers.
Unexpectedly, after her death, Huo Chuan actually talked about her. Huo Tian was extremely panicked, he couldn't guess Huo Chuan's thoughts, and Aunt Zhong was killed by him.
He went to see her that day, and in order to trick her into drinking the bowl of poisonous soup, he even brought her favorite rose cake, and reminisced with her about the old days.
She laughed almost all the time. In the end, she believed him completely, and even before he left, she promised that she would definitely drink the soup. He left in peace.
The reason why Huo Tian is so bold is because Mrs. Huo once told him that Aunt Zhong was not from a good background. Without a family, even if she died, it wouldn't make any big waves.
The two of them forged a letter left by Aunt Zhong, which said that she had nothing to do with Huo Tian, and she committed suicide because she couldn't stand the gossip. In this way, there is no doubt about her death.
can not only deceive Huo Chuan, but also allow Huo Tian to clear his involvement, the best of both worlds.
Huo Tian fell into the memories and didn't dare to answer for a long time, so Huo Chuan said again: "Blame me too, I didn't find that she was wrong." I heard you went to see her the night before, did she leave anything for me?"
Huo Tian didn't expect Yixiang to suddenly rush out, insisting that he had killed Aunt Zhong. He always felt that Huo Chuan was suspicious because of this matter, and now it was more like testing himself.
He put his trembling hands behind his back, remembering that Old Madam Huo had said that Huo Chuan had decided that Aunt Zhong was bent on death, and as long as he could stabilize it, the matter would not be exposed.
"When I went to see her, she was a little upset. I also comforted her, blaming me for not talking to her much. Huo Tian replied, and Huo Chuan immediately asked, "I saw the rose cake in her room, and I heard that you gave it to me." “
"Yes, I gave it to me, and I saw a rose cake in the shop that day, so I bought some for her??" Huo Tian swallowed his saliva, glad that Huo Chuan didn't mention the bowl of soup.
Seeing him admit it in person, Huo Chuan's face changed, and he said sharply: "Why did I go to her room today, and the rose cake is gone?"
Huo Tian was stunned: "This??" I don't know about this!" He didn't understand what was wrong with Huo Chuan, and it wasn't necessarily that the rose cake was taken away by a greedy maid, so why be angry?
"Don't tell me you don't know that the cake was poisoned!" Huo Chuan was furious, and he kicked Huo Tian to the ground: "That letter is also fake, right?"
After discovering that the rose cake was poisonous, he went to Aunt Zhong's room, and he was so impressed by the plate of rose cake that he even remembered how many of them were inside.
But those cakes disappeared out of thin air, except for being disposed of by the poisoned people, Huo Chuan couldn't think of any other reason.
If he had asked Huo Tian from the beginning, he would have denied it, so Huo Chuan first asked Huo Tian to admit that he had given the cake, and then spread it out with him.
Huo Tian was kicked to the ground by him, his face was still a little dazed, how could the rose cake be poisonous? The poison was obviously soup, but he couldn't say this to Huo Chuan, if he said it, his poisoning of Aunt Zhong would be exposed.
"Big brother, you misunderstood me!" he crawled over and hugged Huo Chuan's feet: "How could I poison the rose cake? I also loved her, how could I poison her?"
"You can keep these words with your mother!" Huo Chuan tried his best to resist the urge to kill Huo Tian with a knife, if it weren't for the old lady's face, he would have wanted to expel Huo Tian from the house a long time ago.
Now that he is so bold that he dares to poison his aunt in the house, Huo Chuan can't endure it anymore. Again?? He really liked Aunt Zhong at the beginning, and he didn't want her to die for no reason, in fact, whether it was Huo Yurou's mother or Aunt Feng, they were not as important as Aunt Zhong in his heart.
He has been working for power and profit for half his life, she is the only woman he pays sincerely, for the heart that once wanted stability for her, he also has to give her an explanation.
Huo Chuan returned to Huo Mansion and passed by Aunt Zhong's yard, the flowers in the yard were blooming just right, but the people who admired the flowers were no longer there.
He walked in unconsciously, the flowers and plants swayed lightly with the breeze, he was a little stunned, as if he saw her shuttling among the flowers, the wind stopped, she slowly turned her head, smiled at him, the pear vortex on the side of her mouth was smart and cute.
After she entered the Huo Mansion, she had never smiled at him like this, it was a scene he had seen countless times in his dreams, but unfortunately, now it was only possible to see it in a dream.
