Chapter 97: Witnesses
Hearing her say this, Su Wen showed an interesting look on his face, and asked with a smile: "If someone can prove it, then just call the witnesses over." ”
Seeing her appearance, Aunt Lin said with a sneer: "Don't be too happy, there will be your good fruit to eat when the time comes." Since you dare to do it, you should think that there will be such a day. No matter how seamlessly you hide, there will always be a time when the conspiracy will be revealed, and now is the time. ”
Hearing this, the corners of Su Wen's mouth hooked up a mocking arc, and he deliberately asked with incomprehension: "It turns out that you understand these truths, so why are you still bent on harming people, aren't you afraid of retribution?" ”
Aunt Lin didn't react to Su Wen's ridicule at all, but turned her head to the door and ordered, "When is it, are you still standing outside?" The little guy I caught just now, hurry up and bring him in. If you dare to murder the master in the house, today will be his fate. ”
Before he could finish speaking, a small servant was pushed in through the door. As soon as he entered the door, he fell to the ground, and kept kowtowing to Li Chen who was present and begging for mercy, it seemed that he did have a little bit of sincere repentance.
Watching all this coldly, the mocking smile on Su Wen's face never retreated. It's been so long, she wants to understand the cruelty of the struggle in the back house, and see if it's as brutal as she saw in her previous life? The only pity is that the level of the house fight this time is too low, and the rank of the participants may not be how high.
Seeing the little girl who came in, Aunt Lin couldn't care about Mrs. Li who was present, and asked with a hint of expectation: "Who are you, hurry up and report to the house." ”
Hearing her ask, the little guy trembled and replied, "The little one is the little guy next to Young Master Xiang." Usually responsible for running errands and buying some gadgets for Young Master Xiang. It's been a long time. is familiar with Aunt Liu at the beginning. For such a long time, the little one stayed by Young Master Xiang's side. Usually I am taken care of by Aunt Liu. ”
Seeing that this little guy directly splashed dirty water on himself, Haitang sneered on the spot and asked: "I just asked you to report to your home, but you said so much at once, who taught you behind your back?" ”
was questioned by Haitang, the little guy's body trembled even more, and he replied with a trembling voice: "This is all interrogated before, the little one is afraid that the old lady will ask, and this time he will directly say it together." ”
Hearing the little girl's answer, Aunt Lin showed a hint of smugness on her face. gloated beside him and said: "What a clever boy, it's a pity that he was blinded by lard for a while, and he actually did something to betray his master." If you can sincerely repent this time, staying by the young master's side doesn't mean that you can't. ”
After speaking, Aunt Lin also deliberately glanced at the annoyed begonia. There was a provocative look in her eyes, as if she had already won the contest.
After glancing at the begonia, Aunt Lin immediately asked with a serious face: "I heard someone say that you once brought something to Aunt Liu's room, but is there such a thing?" If that's the case. Can you tell me what you were carrying? If you dare to say half a lie, be careful of your wife's handling of your family law. ”
Hearing this, the little guy immediately replied with a panicked face: "The little one did bring something to Aunt Liu this morning, but I don't know what it is." That thing is tightly wrapped. It can only be seen that it is a small piece. ”
A flash of joy flashed in her eyes, and Aunt Lin immediately continued to ask, "Do you know anything else besides these?" Think about it. Maybe you'll remember something. ”
Hearing her ask, the little guy looked serious and thoughtful. It took a long time before he replied with an uncertain face: "When I was sending such a thing, the little one seemed to smell a burst of aroma." The aroma was too faint. I'm not sure if the little one came from that thing. ”
"In the process of delivering something, you smell a burst of aroma. Then let me ask you, if you were to revisit the news now, would you still be able to recognize that aroma? Aunt Lin glanced at Haitang and Su Wen, and then asked with a smug face.
After thinking about it for a while, the little guy replied with a firm face: "Although the aroma is light, the little one still remembers." Before this time, Xiao had never smelled such a good text, so he remembered it so clearly. If you can smell it again, you will be able to recognize the small one. ”
After getting the answer she wanted, Aunt Lin turned her head to the maid next to her and ordered, "What are you still doing in a daze?" Hurry up and take the rest of the musk and let him smell it, isn't it the smell of that thing? ”
With a word of agreement, the maid went to fetch the piece of musk, and then carefully held it in front of the little servant. After taking the piece of musk, the little servant put it to the tip of his nose and sniffed it. He sniffed for a moment, then looked thoughtful, as if to contrast it with the smell in his memory.
Seeing this scene, Yunzhi held his breath nervously. She hoped that the little guy could give a negative answer, but she knew in her heart that this was actually a game set up by the Lin family, and the little guy was just a trust.
Sensing Yunzhi's nervousness, Su Wen reached out to hold her hand while giving her a reassuring smile. Since he dared to come to the Li Mansion for a trip, Su Wen already had the certainty of retreating. No matter how seamless Aunt Lin designed the trap, she didn't want to drag their mother and daughter into the water.
After a while, the little maid raised his head and replied with a serious face: "Back to the old lady, this fragrance is the kind of fragrance that the little one brought in for Aunt Liu in the morning." With just a small ability, there is really no way to judge the difference between the two tastes, and I ask the old man to forgive me. ”
Hearing this answer, Begonia subconsciously clenched her fists, not even consciously piercing her nails into the flesh. Compared with her, Su Wen was indifferent, as if this matter had nothing to do with her.
With a sneer, Aunt Lin then said with a cold face: "From this point of view, that thing should be this musk without a doubt." Okay, that's good, I'm going to ask you now, who gave you that thing to bring in. Although it is said that there is an old lady here to make decisions for you, no one can hurt you in the slightest. ”
After receiving her assurance, the little guy replied boldly: "That person doesn't know the little one, but he just told the little one to bring things to Aunt Liu, and said that it was sent by An Hetang's doctor." ”
Hearing this, Yunzhi finally couldn't bear it anymore, and said with a sneering face: "If you do bad things, you have to report yourself, how can there be such a stupid person in this world?" Aunt Lin just made up such a joke when she hollowed out her mind, and we who joined in the fun are really going to be disappointed.? ”
Regarding Yunzhi's ridicule, Aunt Lin didn't hear it. It doesn't matter if there are flaws or not, as long as Li Chen is willing to believe it, it will be enough. Coaxing a man who doesn't know about the back house, she has more than enough tricks.
Gently patting Yunzhi's hand, Su Wen said lightly: "Mother, why are you in a hurry?" We're here to watch a play, so we have to be patient. Now that the play is not over, you might as well continue to watch it, maybe there will be surprises, do you say? ”
After being appeased by Su Wen, Yunzhi relaxed a little, and said with a smile: "It's my mother who is anxious." Since Su Wen said so, let's take another look. ”
Seeing this scene, Aunt Lin snorted coldly with disdain, then turned around and knelt in front of Li Chen, crying with a sad face: "Master, now that the facts have been figured out, you have to make the decision for the concubine." Aunt Liu colluded with outsiders to murder the heirs of our Li family, which is an unforgivable crime. ”
Seeing her kneeling and crying, Li Chen couldn't help frowning, revealing a distressed expression. In order to mix in among the scholars in Yunzhou City, he didn't dare to offend Su Wen at will, but the grievances of the Lin family couldn't be ignored.
At this moment, Haitang suddenly knelt down like Aunt Lin, and swore with tears streaming down her face: "Master, please believe in the innocence of the concubine." Since entering the Li Mansion, the concubine has always been careful to abide by her duties, and has never crossed half a step. Today, he was framed and framed, and asked the master to uphold justice and return the concubine to an innocent person. ”
Seeing her like this, Aunt Lin secretly hated in her heart. She knew Li Chen's character and knew that such a beauty was the easiest to gain his pity, so she held even more grudges against Begonia in her heart.
In order to win Li Chen's sympathy, Aunt Lin's tears were even more turbulent, and she cried with a sad face: "Master, don't you remember? How happy you were when the news that the concubine was pregnant was confirmed. Now that someone is trying to murder your child and your concubine, can you just stand idly by and watch the murderer go unpunished? ”
Hearing Lin's cry, Li Chen immediately remembered the joy when he learned that she was pregnant, and a little pity couldn't help but rise in his heart, and the original tenderness for Begonia faded by two points.
Keenly aware of this, Begonia's mind flowed, and he immediately had an idea, and immediately showed a look of reminiscence, and said with a sad voice; "Sir, do you remember what happened that night? The concubine was secretly weeping in the garden, and it was you who wiped away the tears of the concubine and brought the concubine the idea of living......"
Hearing her mention the events of that night, Li Chen's thoughts were immediately pulled back to that night. He saw Begonia weeping alone in the garden, saw her fragile and helpless appearance, and a trace of stubbornness in her expression that pretended to be strong, and the balance in his heart couldn't help but tilt a little towards Begonia.
As an experienced veteran of house fighting, how could Aunt Lin not see Begonia's thoughts. wanted to use this method to arouse Li Chen's sympathy, how could she sit idly by? There are memories between Haitang and Li Chen, don't she and Li Chen have any? To put it mildly, she and Li Chen have a lot of memories.
Wiping away the tears on her face, Aunt Lin showed a look of aftertaste and said with reminiscence; "Sir, do you remember the summer before last? You took your concubine and Xiang'er to the grange to escape the summer, our family talked and laughed, and the days were more leisurely......" (to be continued......)
