116. Chapter 116

In the dark room, the door creaked, and a light slanted into the room, and even the cockroaches on the ground were startled and wandered around.

Old lady Zhao stood outside the house and listened to the housekeeper say: "I have been locked up here for the past few days, and according to your orders, I will not be given food every day, only some water to drink." This firewood house has been abandoned for many years, mosquitoes, snakes and ants are infested, she was scared enough, came to ask her mother-in-law if she was not light, she suffered a lot, but she did not let go. Said to see you and let you give her a clean slate! ”

Old lady Zhao frowned lightly, stepped in, met with the smell of damp and rotten straw, a mouse "squeaked", fled from the old lady's feet and rushed out, the old lady paused, before he stood still, he heard the cry of "huh" from the house, the voice was weak and low, full of grievances, "Dad, mother, you can take me away...... Don't leave me alone to suffer in a desolate place. Father, mother, I can't stand it......"

The housekeeper hurriedly whispered, "Miss, the old lady has come to see you." ”

Lighting a lamp, there was finally a light in the room, Mrs. Zhao took two steps forward, only to see a person curled up in the corner, maybe she hadn't seen anyone for a long time, she subconsciously shivered, raised her head to see someone, wanted to speak, wanted to say tears first, fluttered down.

"You want to see me?" Old Lady Zhao asked. Looking at Zhao Silian again, he was timid and had a face, and he was extremely weak when he looked at it, his hair was scattered over his shoulders, and the pear blossoms were like rain.

Who would have thought that behind this face was such a vicious heart.

"Grandfather......" Zhao Silian finally came back to his senses, crawled over and knelt at his feet, and begged: "Grandfather, take me out of here, I beg you." They have wronged me, they say that I killed my father, how can it be? Grandfather, you grew up watching me, you must believe me! ”

"You watched me grow up......" The words rumbled in the ears of Mrs. Zhao, Zhao Chengyun was also raised by him, but in the end it became a stain on his life.

So it is with the father, and so with the daughter. Could it be that these two people are here to ask for their lives in this life?

"Your maid has already said it, what else do you have to quibble!" Old lady Zhao was a little disgusted. 】

Zhao Silian hurriedly shook his head and cried: "They are all lying to you." They said that they found Youhan, but Youhan died a few years ago, and no one knew who came, how could they trust her? Even if it was really Youhan, how could she know about the shipwreck that day! Grandfather, my father and mother are dead, and you are the only one left, I am your dear flesh and blood, do you want to force me to death! ”

Old Lady Zhao let out a long sigh, closed her eyes and said, "Bring people up!" ”

The housekeeper replied in a low voice, and after a while, a thin little girl was brought in from outside the house, Zhao Silian seemed to see a glimmer of life, and happily climbed her hand: "Youyuan...... Young Yuan, tell your grandfather how his father died that day! ”

She was rejoicing, but the little girl glared at her fiercely, shook her head and said, "Old lady, what I should have said has already been said." Over the years, I have aided in the abuse, but I just want to avenge my sister...... Miss said that Youhan was killed by Song Yanzhu, and I have been following her all these years, just to find an opportunity to take revenge on Song Yanzhu! ”

Youyuan knelt down and said softly: "If it weren't for the safe return of Sister Youhan's great life, I wouldn't have known that I had been kept in the dark all these years......"

"Yuyuan, what are you talking about!" I waited for several days to hope for a glimmer of life, but I saw that it was going to be gone. Zhao Silian's eyes widened and he couldn't wait to fight, "You are my closest maid, why do you hurt me like this!" That person is not a young man, don't be provoked by others! ”

Youyuan shook his head lightly and said: "Sister said that you have a wolf's heart and a dog's lungs, and your tongue is like a spring, I didn't believe it before, but now I look at you, you are like a snake and a scorpion!" She said, but tears fell: "Have you forgotten the situation when you threw your master down with your own hands that day?" You laughed at the river, you said, the master is the biggest shame in your life, you can have a good life without him, have you forgotten? ”

When she thought of the situation that day, she was not annoyed: "You forgot, I didn't forget." Every night when I went to bed I could dream of the people on the boat, one by one they were around me and begging for my life, with long tongues, white eyes like dead fish bubbles, and the flesh on my body was swollen and rotten, and they grabbed my legs and said, "Let me go down with them...... If it weren't for my sister, I wouldn't have survived a long time ago! But you, you can calmly think of one harmful plan after another......"

After a pause, he said coldly: "I'm just afraid that you don't know, the eldest young master of the Rong family who listened to your words to harm people is also dead!" Die in prison! ”

Zhao Silian's face was originally pale, but now she was as lonely as death, and she only shook her head: "I don't know what you say, you're crazy, I want to find Mother Guo, I want to find Mother Guo." ”

As he spoke, he was about to step forward and grab Old Lady Zhao's legs, but Old Lady Zhao pushed back in disgust and knocked her hand aside with the cane in his hand.

"Death without repentance!" Old lady Zhao scolded in a low voice.

"Miss, don't look for it, Mother Guo has recruited ......" Youyuan chuckled in a low voice, "You forgot the people you killed, you forgot the people you killed, you forgot that you killed your own father, but you can't go to what is close in front of you...... Because you were jealous of Song Yanzhu, you seduced Young Master Rong and asked him to work for you, promised him to marry him after he succeeded, and used the master's inheritance as a dowry, you said that you would let Song Yanzhu die outside...... These things, Guo's mother has already recruited, miss, you can't run away this time! ”

"What evidence do you have!" Zhao Silian raised his head suddenly, and there was a trace of fierceness in his eyes: "You are so unscrupulous, you want to set me this heinous crime, but there is still heavenly reason!" ”

"You still know the principles of heaven!" Old lady Zhao scolded coldly, one wall asked people to drag Youyuan down, and the other wall looked at Zhao Silian, full of hatred, "The boat went to the waters of Suzhou and had an accident, you poisoned everyone, sank the corpses at the bottom of the river, and thought that what you did was seamless, but now that you have your maid to guide the way, you just have to take it to that water, and let the familiar water dive into the bottom of the water to salvage the corpses, more than a dozen corpses, do you really think they were all swallowed by fish?" Not to mention those who died, but whenever one or two survivors appeared, when they arrived at the official mansion, you would be executed by Ling Chi! ”

Zhao Silian trembled and looked at Old Lady Zhao: He clearly knew, but he didn't send her to the government! Do you want to give her a chance? After all, she is Zhao Chengyun's only bloodline! As if seeing a glimmer of light, she suddenly planned to recruit.

"Yes...... I killed them all! She wept bitterly, "Li'er is also a last resort!" ”

Her father is a high-ranking official, she has always been a young lady, but one day, she fell from the sky to the ground, only with him one day, she will have to bear the charge of committing an official for the rest of her life, and someone will point fingers behind her for the rest of her life. Only when he dies can he have a hundred, and only when he dies can she start a new life - Zhao Chengyun told her that even if the Zhao Mansion doesn't want them, with the old lady's temperament, he will give him the family property he deserves, even if the house is raided, they will not live too desolate!

She also knew that on the ship that day, Zhao Chengyun hid a large amount of property. It was the concubine he had brought back to keep him, and the dowry he had promised herβ€”as long as they were all dead, it was hers. has no power and money, as long as she finds a wishful husband, she can continue to live a carefree life for the rest of her life.

Her heart twisted and turned, and finally fell to the ground and cried: "Grandfather, my Zhao Mansion has been honest for generations, but my father is the biggest stain on our family. A corrupt official like him cannot be blamed for his death...... Didn't you expel him from the house too!? Li'er just wants to clean the door for our house, so that he doesn't have to defile the lintel of our house alive......"

The reason that I had rehearsed countless times in my heart finally had to speak, "Grandfather, Li'er also made this decision for the good of our family!" You should be considerate of the poor and help the poor child! Li'er doesn't want to die! Kneeling at his feet, he bowed down and said in a wailing voice: "Sister Nine is about to get married, you don't want to let our family have another accident at this juncture, as long as you don't die, you send me to Dongying, Ryukyu, and the edge of the sky. ”

The old lady's face was a little sad, and Zhao Si's merciful face made him completely cool down under the deep heart of the city government. As soon as I entered the door, I heard her whispered cry and my heart softened for a moment, but now it was half gone, and I looked up, and suddenly felt a little sad.

The upper beam is not correct and the lower beam is crooked, because he has not been educated well. So then he will put an end to the iniquity he has made.

"Your ninth sister is about to get married, and I don't want blood in the house. After she gets married, whether it is white silk or crane top red, you choose the same. Come clean, go clean. ”

Zhao Si's heart trembled twice, her body was weak, and she had to ask again, the old lady walked away, she couldn't catch up, the door was closed, and she vaguely heard the old lady Zhao whispering: "Look at this room, no one should come close to her except me." ”

Knock twice, it was the sound of the lock, Zhao Silian's body weakened, and he fell into the darkness again.

"Squeak squeak...... A few more mice ran to her side, she pressed her hand to the ground, only to feel a piercing pain, and suddenly jumped up: the mouse in the dark was not afraid of light, and bit her finger.

Boundless darkness, starvation, mosquitoes, snakes and ants...... These are nowhere near the impending death.

Can't die, absolutely can't die.

She struggled to her feet and shouted to the door, "I want to see the old lady!" I want to see the old lady! I have something important to tell him, about my dad! ”

"Miss, don't make trouble, the old lady said I can't see you!" The little guy outside said slowly.

Zhao Silian knelt beside the door, and said loudly through the crack in the door: "I want to see the old lady, otherwise I will die here!" ”

Yibi said, Yibi slammed his head against the wall, and the people outside only heard a "bang" in the room, and suddenly there was no sound, and the little man who guarded the door panicked and hurriedly said: "It won't be dead!" ”

One wall said and the other wall hurriedly took the key to open the door.
