Chapter 249: The Past
Gu Qiluo smiled and said: "Don't worry about this, there are a few soldiers, soldiers are not tired of cheating, who let you fall for me." Now sit down and tell us what's going on, shall you? You say that you are the enemy of the Lord, who is your master? And who killed him? It won't be ...... We...... Mrs., right? ”
The last sentence ** milk said extremely difficult, it was really too unbelievable, although the other party Qionghua hated it to the core, knowing that it was a sinister and vicious woman, but how to think of the other party as bad, I didn't think of her so bad.
Gu Qiluo knew that that woman would not be soft once she wanted to harm someone, and the Li family's brother came to the mansion to make a fuss that day, if she hadn't handled it properly, I was afraid that such a sensitive and fragile woman as the Li family would have been unable to endure it for a long time. It's just that, after all, this is just a conspiracy to harm people, not to do it yourself, but Liu Zhong said at this time that he killed the master's hatred, gritting his teeth like that, as if his master did not die in the conspiracy, but ...... Murdered.
How could this not make Gu Qiluo frightened. But Liu Zhong looked calm, and said with a wry smile: "The owner, in fact, don't talk about this matter, Mrs. Xiao is now a daughter of the official family, and she is a good order, I know what I say, and you won't believe it......"
"Just say, we don't necessarily disbelieve."
Xiao Jiangbei suddenly spoke, and when he saw Liu Zhong's surprised expression, he said coldly: "The relationship between us is not as good as you imagined. ”
In one sentence, Liu Zhong instantly understood, and secretly said yes, he was really confused, Hou Ye has grown up, how can he have feelings for his stepmother? It's just that he maintains respect on his face, and listening to the meaning of this, it seems that the two sides are still a little unpleasant. It's not hard to guess that there is a Hou Mansion in Nuoda. The proprietor is Mrs. Hou, but that one is the nominal mother-in-law. Who will be in charge, how can there be no dispute? No wonder the owner has been busy with the affairs of the house before, it seems that her mother-in-law is not very popular.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help laughing at myself, as if muttering: "Yes, who else knows her temperament better than me?" A selfish and vicious person like her is a scourge wherever she goes, although General Xiao has a deep affection for her, but not all the people in the Hou Mansion are blind. How can you not tell the good from the bad? Thinking about it this way, it was actually my mistake, I just thought about how the Hou Ye and the owner said that they were also a family with her, no matter whether they got along happily or not, once something happened, it was also to be twisted into a rope to the outside world, wrong, really wrong. ”
Gu Qiluo was puzzled: "Listen to what you mean, you still know our wife?" That's amazing. How did you know her? ”
"How did I know her? Of course I know her, even if she turns to ashes, I know her. Liu Zhong suddenly became excited again, and his gritted teeth showed how much he hated Fang Qionghua. But in the end, it has experienced a big scene. The old man quickly calmed down again, his eyes turned around Xiao Jiangbei and Gu Qiluo's faces twice, and he said softly: "Liu Zhong is the original name of Xiao Lao'er. I also have another pseudonym, which Hou Ye and the owner may not have heard. However, there should be no shortage of people who know that name, especially the colleagues in the mall. After all, it's all counted. This matter has only been four years ago, and everyone should not forget the name Lu Yang. ”
"Lu Yang?"
Xiao Jiangbei and Gu Qiluo looked at each other, they really didn't know the name, but they faintly felt a little familiar. Suddenly, Gu Qiluo finally remembered where he had heard this name, and he couldn't help but lose his face for a while, and exclaimed, "Lu Yang? Could it be that the big housekeeper who sued the housewife in the case of Sichuan Shu and Liu Sanchuan that day? ”
"It turns out that even the owner knows Xiao Lao'er's pseudonym." Liu Zhong laughed miserably, but then solemnly pale, stood up and said in a deep voice: "That's right, I want to teach the owner to know that it is the big housekeeper who was under the pseudonym Lu Yang back then and followed Master Sanchuan to the north and south for nearly 20 years. ”
Xiao Jiangbei finally remembered. Liu Sanchuan's case was a sensation back then, but he only heard about it and didn't pay much attention to it. Later, when he was fishing in the glacier river, Cheng Tong talked about it with Zhong Chunfeng and others, and he learned the ins and outs. As soon as he thought of this, a thought suddenly rose in his heart, and he was so shocked that this Zhenbei Houye, who was as determined as a mountain, couldn't help jumping up, and said hurriedly: "What if...... If you are Lu Yang, then ...... You mean...... The wife of our house...... It is...... That's the ......."
The latter words, even if Xiao Jiangbei tried his best, he couldn't say it. But he heard Liu Zhong say in a deep voice: "That's right, if I don't recognize the wrong person, the general's wife in your mansion is Yan Ruyu, the step-room of Lord Sanchuan back then, and Lord Sanchuan also died in the hands of this woman." ”
"You wait...... Wait a minute...... It's coming too fast like a tornado, sir, let's calm down. ”
Gu Qiluo also felt chills all over his body, if what Liu Zhong said was true, then wouldn't they be living with a poisonous snake that could bite to death at any time? The most terrible thing is the foolish guy of the father-in-law, it's sad enough for people to sleep with wolves, and he's even more sad, it's actually an upgraded version of sleeping with poisonous snakes and wolves, is this a game?
Liu Zhong really stopped talking, and after a long time, Xiao Jiangbei slowly sat down and said in a deep voice: "You can first tell me about the appearance of the lady Liu you know." Even now, he still didn't want to believe that Fang Qionghua was a terrible poisonous snake, and when he thought of his father being with such a poisonous snake-like woman, he felt a little difficult to breathe.
Liu Zhong told Mrs. Liu about her appearance that day without blinking, and only halfway through it, Xiao Jiangbei and Gu Qiluo had already determined: This is Fang Qionghua.
Fortunately, after such a long time, thunder after thunder thundered, and the couple were numb by the bombardment. So Gu Qiluo asked Liu Zhong to tell him what happened back then.
It turned out that Liu Zhong was a restless when he was young, going south and north to do business, and experienced many failures, but there were also times of success, which accumulated a lot of business experience and ideas for him. This blow immediately made Liu Zhong bedridden, and when he was about to go with the girl, Liu Sanchuan appeared, this guy who had been selfish and vicious all his life somehow suddenly became kind, and actually stopped the innkeeper from throwing Liu Zhong out and saved his life.
After recovering, Liu Zhong felt guilty about the death of his wife and children, never mentioned his ambitions again, and was willing to follow Liu Sanchuan as his sidekick. However, this old man has a reputation, and he has to be on guard, so he uses a fake name, thinking that once the two have a conflict, he will withdraw. Unexpectedly, Liu Sanchuan, who was suspicious and cunning by nature, somehow managed to fall in love with him, and this follow-up was twenty years. Liu Sanchuan is ruthless and unrighteous to others, but he really trusts Lu Yang, the big housekeeper. Therefore, after the old guy who had no children and no daughters was killed, Liu Zhong was the only one who dug deep into the truth and avenged him.
However, even Liu Zhong didn't expect that Yan Ruyu was obviously just a woman, and he didn't see that she had anything to do with any forces, but he didn't expect that there was a terrifying backer hidden behind her.
Liu Zhong took great pains to finally collect the evidence that he thought was enough, after all, he was not a member of the Liu family, no matter how important he was, it was impossible to enter the inner house openly to investigate clues, he didn't even see the last side of Liu Sanchuan, and the benefactor was hurriedly buried. Later, he inquired and investigated in many ways, and only then did he learn from a few subordinates about the situation before and after his death, and spent countless sums of money in exchange for those people who were willing to testify.
Reasoning, with these evidences, even if the yamen can't convict Yan Ruyu immediately, they have to start a careful case investigation, and the county magistrate did this at the beginning, just as Liu Zhong actively ran to prepare to help the government and let the truth about the benefactor's death be revealed to the world, the yamen suddenly changed his attitude, not only did not Yan Ruyu have anything to do, but said that Liu Sanchuan's death was because he was angry in his heart after a big quarrel with him, so he couldn't afford to get sick, and finally died, and he not only did not repent, but also falsely accused the hostess, conspired to embezzle the Liu family's property, so he was sentenced to a prison sentence and put him in prison.
After so many years of traveling from south to north, Liu Zhong has seen a lot of things about the government reversing black and white, but he didn't expect that the most rampant this time was actually experienced by himself. He thought about it for a long time in prison, and finally determined that Yan Ruyu definitely didn't have so much energy, so it can be seen that there must be an unknown terrifying backer behind her, but this time he underestimated the enemy because of Liu Sanchuan's death, and accidentally ended up losing all the games.
It's just that how can Liu Zhong be willing? What's more, Liu Sanchuan was killed and died, but the murderer inherited all his family property and business with impunity, and he couldn't avenge this benefactor, and he didn't turn a blind eye. So Liu Zhong used his last savings to buy off the jailer, and found a criminal in the prison to be a substitute for the dead, the criminal was not a death penalty, but because the crime was relatively serious, he was sentenced to 20 years, thinking that he might not be able to survive until he was released from prison, it was better to die on behalf of others, and the mother and son in the family could still get a sum of money to live, so he happily agreed.
These operations are naturally difficult and complicated, and there is no need to go into details. In short, in the end, Liu Zhong escaped, all the way cautiously back to Liaodong to restore his real name and hide, in recent years, he did not dare to openly inquire about Yan Ruyu's whereabouts, but he was also able to get some useful information through some of his own secret channels, he received a letter last spring, saying that Yan Ruyu appeared in the capital, but he has not made up his mind to go to the capital, and now the two forces are disappearing from each other, he is afraid that he will put himself in again, and at that time, let alone that he has no money, there is a gold mountain, but he is afraid that it will be difficult to escape.
