Chapter 64: Clues

Mo Xinqing, who was hiding on the side, had been paying attention to Mo Xinlan's condition, but Mo Xinlan kept her head down and couldn't see clearly, but from Mo Xinlan's undetectable trembling, it could be seen that she was not calm.

The mandarin duck and the old woman from her hometown, who were discussing the events of the year, did not notice that anyone was eavesdropping.

Mandarin Duck said in surprise: "The Jiang family is a very well-behaved family, even if the second master has seen Madame, it can't prove that the old man has long been interested in Madame and threw the leading wife aside." ”

"If you want me to say, you girl is also stupid, mandarin duck."

The old woman's forehead was full of wrinkles, and when she opened her mouth, she showed a mouth full of big yellow teeth, "If the second master has no thoughts about his wife, can he use all his strength to leave the first lady in the imperial capital?" The second master had no one around him at the time, no one in his heart, how could a man keep it? Not long after the death of the lady, the second master asked the Jiang family to marry, desperately offending the Duke of Fuguo, letting the daughter of the Duke of Fuguo be a concubine, and also marrying the daughter of a person who has failed many times, saying that the second master has no heart for her, and you stupid girl believe it! ”

"You are young, I don't know that the second master went through hardships to marry Mrs. Jiang, the second master is a great talent, and the future is promising, not to mention that the Duke of Fuguo intends to marry a daughter again, there are many famous ladies in the imperial capital and hometown Shandong who are looking forward to marrying the handsome second master."

The old woman seemed to understand the situation very well, and said with feeling: "Back then, the old lady often received posts, and the matchmaker almost stepped on the threshold of the Mo family, and the ice matchmaker came for the second master. But the second master was unmoved, he was forced by the Duke of Fuguo, and he refused to marry the daughter of the Duke of Fuguo. I'd rather make up the rule that a concubine can't be a wife, and I'd rather be punished by an old lady...... He still only thinks about making an alliance with his current wife. ”

"I sue you, for this matter, the second master knelt in front of the old lady's door for three days, and forced the old lady to write a letter that she could only be a concubine without telling her. Our old lady is illiterate. It's not an excuse for the second master, where does the old lady know how to marry without telling her?! The most pitiful thing is the two sisters of the Zhou family of the Fuguo Gong, the first lady...... is not blind, Aunt Zhou in the back is obviously a noble lady but ends up as a concubine. A man's heart is not in you, and no matter how good you are, it will not be useful. ”

"Aunt Zhou......" Mandarin Duck sighed a little more, "I don't know how I'm doing in Zhuangzi now, and I can't return home." The second master's heart is indeed very hard. ”

"Leave Aunt Zhou, who is as beautiful as a flower, in the capital for more than ten years and ignore it. When I returned to Beijing, I gave the anti-concubine book, and I was not afraid of pantothenic acid in my heart? The second master cared about that and didn't even listen to the old lady's words. Even the eldest lady dares to contradict, and she doesn't want to think about it, if it weren't for the eldest lord and the eldest lady who have always taken care of the second master, how can there be a second master today? After the eldest lady entered the door. has always treated the second master of the little uncle as his own brother, and he does not let the second master do heavy work. There are delicious things that always think of the second master. “

The old woman wanted to continue, but she heard an exclamation from the side, "Second sister! ”

She turned around at the same time as the mandarin duck, and Mo Xinlan slowly walked over with an angry face. raised his hand and slapped the old woman twice, and scolded: "The bold Diao slave dares to talk about the rights and wrongs of his mother?!" ”

"The old slave knows his mistake. The old slave knows his mistake. ”

The old woman fell to her knees and slapped herself. crackling, his mouth was swollen, and he cried and said, "The old slave doesn't dare to talk about Madame, it's just ...... It's just that he said something that shouldn't be said, and asked the second lady to spare the old slave once, the old slave felt sorry for the old lady. ”

"Spare your life? Let you continue to slander your father and mother for giving each other privately before marriage? Let you continue to spread rumors?! ”

Mo Xinlan sneered: "There are not a few families in the capital who marry stepwives, like the tricks of your group of minions, I have seen a lot, you and the mandarin ducks deliberately said it to me, you want me to hate my father and mother, the Mo family is restless, what good is it for you?" When the father and mother had conflicts and were suspicious of each other, they ruined the father's career. ”

"Second Miss, the slave doesn't dare, don't dare."

The mandarin duck and the old woman begged and cried together.

Mo Xinqing lowered her eyelids, her dark pupils were unfathomably deep.

"Do you dare to call it wronged?!"

Mo Xinlan kicked down the old woman and said angrily: "Mo Xiang, you go and call someone, tie up these two minions and send them to your mother." ”

Mo Xiang hesitated for a moment, nodded and said, "The slave will go." ”

"I sue you two." Mo Xinlan was confident and said loudly: "I believe in my father's conduct, I believe that my father admires my biological mother, and I also believe in the upbringing of the Jiang family, and I believe that my stepmother will not do anything wrong and seduce a married man, and whoever dares to say a bad word to my mother in front of me in the future will be punished personally." ”

"Take it away!"

Mo Xinlan waved her hand domineeringly, and the person called by Mo Xiang tied up the old woman who was paralyzed on the ground, after all, the mandarin duck was a trustworthy person next to the old lady, and he only echoed the old woman, so he got some preferential treatment, and he was not tied into a dumpling like an old woman.

"Second sister's words are very kind."

Mo Xinqing was full of admiration, "That's it, I really hate the two of them, obviously my father let my biological mother leave, it was for her good, and I hope that she will marry her lover again to be Mrs. Pingtou, how did she become a father in their mouths ruthless and unjust?" ”

"The tree wants to be quiet and the wind does not stop."

Mo Xinlan's eyes seemed to be brewing a storm, and she was a little sad, "They all treat me as stupid." ”

"I went to tell my mother in person, and I hope that my eighth sister will go with me."

"Okay."

Mo Xinqing stood beside Mo Xinlan without hesitation, "I should be willing." ”

******

Jiang was shocked, Ah Jiu was surprised to help Jiang sit in the east house of Jiuhe Ju, and saw the old woman and the mandarin duck, the old woman was the merchant mother in her hometown.

It is said that she had relatives with the old lady earlier, but later the Mo family became noble, and the relatives were much more attached, and she came and went, and she somehow became the person who accompanied the old lady.

This time, almost all of the Mo family's hometown moved into the process, and Shang's mother also followed, often making fun around the old lady and playing leaf cards.

Jiang took care of the old lady and rarely assigned her work.

Ah Jiu took the initiative to ask: "Second sister is angry, what's wrong?" The two of them committed a crime and injured the second sister? ”

"Don't mention it, these two Diao slaves can't see the Mo family."

Mo Xinlan poured beans into a bamboo tube and told the story of the before and after, pointed to Shang's mother and said: "I didn't drink, and I didn't get confused, I think she deliberately ruined her mother's reputation." It's a shame that I and my eighth sister heard it today, otherwise I don't know how long she would have to talk nonsense. Such slaves should be beaten to death. ”

"I also hope that my mother will punish her heavily, so that others will learn and behave, and it will ruin the Mo family's style."

Mo Xinlan was filled with righteous indignation, and the appearance of not allowing sand in her eyes seemed to trust the Jiang family very much, and hated Shang's mother for spreading rumors and making trouble.

Jiang Shi pulled Mo Xinlan over. smiled: "Sister Lan, you can tie them up and hand them over to me." My heart is really happy, if you believe in me. ”

"Mother......" Mo Xinlan lowered her eyelids, "They should be damned!" ”

"It's not the two of them who damn it."

"That's right."

Ah Jiu nodded in agreement with Jiang's words. took the initiative to say: "It's really good that the second sister can understand that someone is framing the discord, mother, I think some people think that our family is too harmonious." I'm looking for something to do. Or the people behind the scenes think that Miss Mo is not worthy of the name, and they will believe the rumors that are made out of nothing! Both your and your father's character. Or the second sister's biological mother and Qin Se and Ming after marrying their father, which can be denied by a few rumors? ”

A sentence of Qin Se and Ming, let the Jiang family in the room, Mo Xinlan. Mo Xinqing suddenly felt something different in her heart.

Mo Xinqing raised his eyes, Ah Jiu didn't seem to realize that these words had hurt the Jiang family, and continued: "No matter what, you have to find out the people behind the scenes!" ”

Mo Xinlan's eyes were deep. As if someone was pinching his throat, Jiang was stunned at first. Then he nodded and said: "The old man and Mrs. Zhou are more in love than Jin Jian, they are an enviable couple, but unfortunately the love is shallow, and after all, yin and yang are separated." ”

said it emotionally, even Mo Xinlan couldn't find a flaw.

"You will leave this matter to your mother, and I hope that my mother will return my innocence to my mother."

"Innocence?! Lan girl said too much. ”

Jiang patted Mo Xinlan's wrist and said, "You believe me, I believe in you." We all hope that the master can be well, isn't the Mo family Yongchang? If we lose the big tree of the lord and lose the quiet reputation of the Mo family, I will be like duckweed who can only float in the world and suffer humiliation. ”

"It's been a long time today, and you're so angry that you're choking, why don't you go back and rest first."

Jiang said to Mo Xiang; "Serve your young lady well."

"Yes." Mo Xiangfuli helped Mo Xinlan to leave.

"Eighth sister and slow."

Ah Jiu took the initiative to keep Mo Xinqing, "I don't want to ask the second sister in detail, after all, it is about the first lady, the second sister has gone to rest, I want to ask the eighth sister who has been with the second sister, what was the situation at that time?" How could the eighth sister and the second sister just hide behind and eavesdrop? ”

“…… After my second sister and I left, we walked back along the path and happened to meet the mandarin duck. ”

"When you meet a mandarin duck, you stop?"

"Yes." The gentle smile on Mo Xinqing's lips narrowed a little, and she was even more cautious about Ah Jiu's temptation.

"In which direction was the mandarin duck standing at that time? Where is Shang's mother standing? ”

"Ninth sister, what are you doing?"

A hint of displeasure flashed in Mo Xinqing's eyes, "Are you suspicious of me?" ”

"Eighth Sister thinks too much."

Ah Jiu's eyes flashed with sparkling clear eyes, "I just want to understand the situation at that time, if this incident is aimed at my mother and second sister, there will always be clues to follow." If someone else listens to it, wouldn't it be a waste of arrangement? Please also ask the eighth sister to recall carefully, where are the two of them facing? ”

Jiang didn't care about these at first, but after listening to Ah Jiu's words, he said: "Sister Qing'er is as she wants, Ah Jiu is used to making trouble, and if she doesn't do what she says, she won't be quiet for a moment, but it also proves that she is as careful as a hair, and she can always find some clues that others can't see." ”

This point, the Jiang family can't compare, what is it that Ah Jiu interferes, it is absolutely clear, the evidence is conclusive!

Of course, there is no full evidence, and Ah Jiu also has the eloquence to make people believe her assertions.

Ah Jiu said that if she had been a great teacher in her previous life, Jiang would have to believe Ah Jiu's 'fairy tales' after she was gone.

Mo Xinqing stabilized her mind, "They are standing next to the corridor of the path, with their backs to us. ”

"Didn't you hear the footsteps of the second sister and the eighth sister?"

"Xu was talking too much and didn't pay attention to the situation next to him."

"Eighth sister, please don't maybe, maybe, probably wait for uncertainty."

Ah Jiu blinked, "This will affect the judgment." ”

“……”

Mo Xinqing's pretty face was slightly pale, and she was completely regarded as a prisoner.

"The second sister was going back to her house at the time, and that was the only way to go, and she would meet any way she looked, but it wasn't so coincidental in time."

"What does the ninth sister mean, someone informed them in advance?"

Mo Xinqing's face was not good-looking. Who knew that Ah Jiu nodded, "Otherwise, how could you say it from the most critical place?" There are obviously deliberately unknown traces, it's too early, the second sister can't hear it, and if you say foreshadowing, the second sister won't be interested in eavesdropping on the private affairs of the maids. ”

“……”

Mo Xinqing was once again blocked and speechless.

"Of course, I'm not suspicious of Eighth Sister." Ah Jiuli smiled, but her eyes were clear and stubborn. "It's just after all the possibilities are said. Brainstorm the most credible points. Has the eighth sister seen anyone around again? ”

Mo Xinqing thought about it carefully and spoke more cautiously, "I was listening to them at the time. I was also worried about the second sister, but I was angry with their words later, and I really didn't know the situation around me. Someone or nobody, I don't know. ”

"It's inevitable. Eighth sister, don't be careful. ”

Ah Jiu said slowly: "Lingshan, are you back?" ”

"Yes."

Ling Shan walked in from the outside. In front of Jiang and Mo Xinqing, "According to Miss Jiu's instructions, the slave maid went to see the place where the mandarin duck and Shang's mother were talking, but fortunately, it had only snowed a few days ago. Footprints can be found. ”

Mo Xinqing couldn't help but burrow into her fist, lowered her eyelids, and Ah Jiu ...... Sure enough, the heart is as careful as a hair. Don't take it lightly.

Jiang Shi was quite surprised, and his lips smiled. "Ah Jiu, you girl."

"Mother, I don't want to wronged good people, but indulge the people behind the scenes."

Ah Jiu's voice was crisp, "The sky net is magnificent, negligent but not leaky, as long as you do something, there will always be clues, even if you can hide it for a while, it can't stand scrutiny, and the factual evidence can only not be found or ignored." ”

"Lingshan, can you find the footprints in the future?"

"Except for the footprints of the eighth and second misses of the ninth miss who sued the slave, the slave didn't find any footprints in the dark next to it."

After Ah Jiu heard this, he looked at Mo Xinqing, "This is strange, according to what the eighth sister just said, the mandarin duck and the merchant mother are standing in a position, it is impossible to see you eavesdropping, and there is no one next to them to report to the mandarin duck, how do they know that you are already there?" If they just repeated what the two sisters heard over and over again...... This is also counterintuitive. ”

“……”

"Ah Jiu." Jiang Shi said lightly: "This matter is still inconclusive, you can't misunderstand your two sisters." ”

"Yes."

Ah Jiu nodded yes, "Eighth sister, don't be careful, I'm just talking, and I need to have evidence." ”

"I ask myself with a clear conscience, how can I blame the ninth sister." Mo Xinqing said: "I hope that the ninth sister can find out the truth as soon as possible." "If my mother hadn't told me, I'd have gone back first."

"Okay, Sister Qing go and accompany the old lady. Among your sisters, the old lady likes you the most. Ah Jiu is picky, stubborn, and needs Sister Qing to say a few more kind words in front of the old lady. “

"Where do you need my good words? Grandmother likes the ninth sister, and after a few more days, the grandmother will be inseparable from the ninth sister like her mother. ”

After Mo Xinqing gave the blessing, he turned around and left.

"Ah Jiu ......"

Jiang Shi pushed his stunned daughter and moved over her shoulder, "Do you suspect Sister Qing'er?" ”

Ah Jiu said: "According to the available evidence, the eighth sister and the second sister are also suspicious, but the second sister ...... It shouldn't be like doing such a thing, the second sister is wary of you, but I don't think she will mention the scars of many years. ”

"In case it's Sister Qing'er, do you have any evidence?"

"Eighth Sister is cautious, even if she does it, she will not leave obvious evidence."

Ah Jiu smiled helplessly: "What happened to Aunt Zhou last time made me understand that evidence is not indispensable, as long as the relevant people believe it, I can make inferences that are convincing enough, it's just the second sister...... I'm worried she'll get hurt again. ”

"That's why you said that your father and Mrs. Zhou are more affectionate than Jinjian?"

"Why should my mother worry about the deceased? Now the person who accompanies my father is you, not Mrs. Zhou, and my father does not regard you as a stand-in for Mrs. Zhou, some people say that the living cannot be compared with the dead, I don't think it's right, and being with each other day and night is always more impressive than the people in memory. Dad is also a loving and righteous person who is willing to pay for his relatives. Even if he thinks of Mrs. Zhou perfectly in his memory, it is not as vivid as the flawed mother who dares to be angry with his father and play with his temper. ”

Ah Jiu stroked his hair and sideburns for Jiang Shi, "Mother, a confident woman is the most beautiful and irreplaceable, you don't have to compare with anyone at all." (To be continued) R655
