Chapter 31: Backhand
Suddenly, the stone broke the earth, and everyone was shocked on the spot.
Ruchan was completely stupid and couldn't react, and although Ruzhen was pale, she realized that something was wrong after a few moments!
On that day, Guangren and Guangyu were seriously injured and frightened, because it was Guangsheng's invitation, everyone thought that he was not angry and wanted to attack his own brother, Ruzhen was his sister, and also felt the strange eyes of everyone, but she was generous, and she had always taken her mother as the priority, and she was more indignant than anyone else.
Now that the rockery that has been touched by hands and feet has been found on Mrs. Lin's body, it is obvious that the matter of the day is not simple, and the old lady's sneer directly scolded the Wang family as a snake and scorpion poisonous woman - Ruzhen, who is standing on her side, finds that the crisis is imminent at this time!
Her eyes flashed, and then she said categorically: "There must be some misunderstanding in this!" Mother would never ......"
"You're a dutiful daughter!"
The old lady glanced at her, the smile lines on the corners of her lips made people's hearts cold, and then the sharp and beautiful eyes swept towards everyone present, staying on Xiao Gu's body, flashing with cold light, and becoming more and more cloudy.
Xiao Gu still looked stupid, shrinking behind everyone and looking left and right to do nothing, as if he didn't feel the sinister killing machine at all.
This girl can't stay...... The old lady thought in her heart, but then she saw so many people around her, and she was discouraged againβeveryone had ears, and listening to this girl's nonsense was to kill her, and it would be useless.
She snorted coldly, "Yes or no, please let her know clearly!" β
As soon as her eyes swept away, someone dragged Xiao Gu and Qin's mother out of the room, and casually closed the empty room to prepare for confrontation.
Mother Qin was already semi-unconscious, and when she was dragged by someone, she woke up with a moan, and her whole body was still trembling.
"Mom, don't worry, it's nothing for us, just make it clear."
Xiao Gu was still stupid, eating a cold steamed bun in her hand - this was what she had just begged the servant woman in Ruyao's courtyard to deliver.
Mother Qin only felt that her mind was dazed - it was obvious that she had killed herself, why was she safe?
She rolled her eyes blankly, only to hear Xiao Gu say with a grin: "It seems that the second lady is going to be unlucky." β
Second Lady Wang?
She carried this black cauldron for herself?
Mother Qin was shocked for a moment, and then felt extremely happy - this poisonous woman also has today!
Xiao Gu didn't care about her complicated feelings, just buried her head and chewed the steamed bun vigorously, and said slurredly: "It's already afternoon, Chu Lan should be on the road." β
Thinking of everything that followed, a sly smile appeared in her eyes - I wonder if that guy can come and rob people in time?
****
In the old lady's Xuanrun Hall, there was tension and dead silence.
Wang sat on the seat at the bottom right, full of shock and anger in the face of the accusation, "How is this possible, both of them are my own flesh and blood, I would do this if I am crazy!" β
"Not necessarily!"
Chen, who was at the bottom left, smiled a little exaggeratedly, covered his lips and coughed twice, the huge gem between his fingers pierced people's eyes, but it only showed her childish spirit, "You have to be your own flesh and blood to act realistically - brother and sister, don't get me wrong, I'm not talking about you, I'm just talking about the drama I ordered yesterday." β
She saw that the old lady did not reprimand, obviously acquiescing, so she was even bolder, and further smiled: "Besides, Guangren Guangyu's injury looks quite serious, isn't it healed now?" This is thanks to the miracle doctor introduced by the Xiao family! Then again, the wife of the Xiao family and your younger siblings are sisters, and they are really heart-to-heart, as soon as you have an accident, there is a miracle doctor over there to save people, what a tacit understanding, what a coincidence! β
These words are simply pointing at Wang's nose and satirizing the play "Rockery Collapse", which she wrote and directed, to frame her concubine Guangsheng, exaggerate the injuries of her two sons, and then let her brother-in-law Xiao come forward to save people!
Chen covered his lips with a handkerchief and smirked twice, and suddenly sighed again: "Children with mothers are spoiled, and children without mothers are the grass by the wall, trampled on by others...... Pity my Guangsheng nephew, who was wronged and wandered abroad at a young age, and now I don't know how to suffer and suffer! β
The more she spoke, the more energetic she became, and she lowered her head and wiped her tears in a pretentious manner, but her heart was happy - the rockery incident was actually that she was jealous of the scenery of the big house, and she was not angry, so she pretended Guangsheng's handwriting to lead the two of them there, and let her personal maid chisel loose the supporting stones, and then pull the wooden stalk when the three of them met, and instantly let it collapse.
All of this is unknowing, Chen was born in a family of petty officials, and his mother's family has belonged to the officials and businessmen under the command of the Ministry of Industry for generations, specializing in road and bridge construction, etc., and she knows a lot about this kind of miscellaneous studies such as drilling, chiseling, bracing and pulling.
Originally, she was worried that someone would suspect her after all, but now that the Wang family, whom she hates the most, has been charged with this crime, how can she not be excited?
Wang's face was pale with anger, but his eyes became more and more burning and terrifying, "I don't understand what my sister-in-law said - for Guangren Guangyu's injury, we are so anxious that even the imperial doctor has been moved, and even he is quite troubled - such a real injury is obvious to everyone, how can it become acting in your mouth?"
Chen was about to refute, but he heard the old lady say coldly: "You can see clearly the rockery on Mrs. Lin's body, she is an old man next to you, but she wants to murder your son, don't you think it's against common sense?" β
Suddenly, everyone's eyes were fixed on the bloodstained rockery, and the old lady said indifferently: "She is the big boss of the kitchen, she is lazy and doesn't like to make trouble, who will do this to her?" β
She asked two questions in a row, which was exactly what everyone was thinking, and even Shen Xi on the side nodded secretly, and Shen Yuan's gaze couldn't help but be suspicious.
Hearing this, Wang stood up respectfully, and knelt down in the center of the main hall without being supported.
"The ancestors and the ancestors are above, and the Shenmen Wang clan hereby swears that this matter is definitely not my doing, if there is a lie, I will be punished ......"
She choked up, and finally continued: "Punish me for being lonely, my husband is scattered, I am dying of cold and starvation, and after death, I will fall into the infernal hell and will not be able to live beyond life!" β
Her voice was cold to the bone, and the heavy oath she made made everyone's hearts sink, and she immediately raised her head, although the pain and grievance were extreme, but she was still stubborn and elegant, "Mother asked these two, and I didn't dare not answer, but although Mrs. Lin is my companion, she has been in the kitchen for many years, and she has not had much contact with me - who knows who she was bribed to dare to do such a betrayal of the master!" β
Thinking of the danger of her two sons at that time, her eyes were red, and she looked at Shen Yuan with grievances, "Husband, the concubine is incompetent, she is usually busy with housework and does not know anyone, and she can't even control the old servants of the pioneers, so she actually harmed my own flesh and blood...... It's all mine, no! β
She said that her eyes were full of tears when she said this, and her low crying voice made people feel compassion, "Who is a mother who doesn't know that she loves her child, let alone a serious injury, that is, he has the slightest injury, all of which are injured in the child's body and in the mother's heart, who would be willing to use them to play a bitter trick?!" β
Shen Yuan on the side was also slightly wet in his eyes, he knelt down as soon as he put on his robe, and accompanied the Wang family to support her, "Mother, I have always trusted her conduct, this matter is quite strange, I am afraid that it is not simple, rashly determining guilt will only let people with intentions reap the benefits of fishermen!" β
When he said the last sentence, he simply raised his head, his eyes stopped on the old lady, and he looked at her without fear.
After a moment of silence, the old lady laughed angrily, "It seems that you have made up your mind to protect her?" β
"With only a stone and a corpse, how can you testify against the head of the house-the son dares to say that even Dali Temple and the Criminal Department have not made such a hasty judgment!"
"You ββ!"
The old lady was about to have a seizure, but she heard someone running from outside, and she hesitated and didn't dare to come in.
"What's going on again?!"
Mother Yao's face was strange, she glanced at everyone present, and stammered: "The steward of the outer courtyard has sent news that one of our maidservants who was married was robbed halfway. β
"Do you want to report this little thing about sesame mung beans?"
The old lady glared angrily, but Yao's mother looked embarrassed and snorted: "This maid is married to Mrs. Lin's family, and she robbed people...... It's Master Guangsheng! β
What the! It's him!
Yao's mother continued: "He brought a group of soldiers from the Beijing camp and threatened...... He can't spare the real murderer, he wants to avenge his brother, and he has to seek justice for himself! β
Everyone's eyes gathered on Wang at this moment, which meant indescribably strange.
