Chu Qingruo looked at Dong Zhu's face with a funny smile, almost sticking out his tongue and panting like a good man, and asked, "You speak slowly, don't be in a hurry." ”

After Dongzhu relieved his breath, he covered his heart and gasped and said, "Kangzi said that today he saw a figure near a gambling house in the west of the city that looked like an aunt and grandmother!" The aunt is still alive! ”

Chu Qingruo let out an "oh" in surprise: "Then did he see clearly whether it was the eldest aunt or grandmother?" ”

Dongzhu shook his head: "I don't know, Kangzi said that people don't know where to go in the blink of an eye, and he decided to take a few more people around there tomorrow to see if he can find her." ”

Chu Qingruo nodded with a calm face, and her heart was full of resentment, this aunt and grandmother of hers was really wonderful!

When she and Dong Ge'er cleaned up the house's belongings that day, they found that all the belongings in the house were gone, and even her one-and-a-half-year-old brother's long-lived little gold lock and small gold bracelet were taken clean.

Chu Qingruo guessed that on the night the Chu family was slaughtered, she went to the gambling house to gamble money, and gambled until dawn before returning home. As soon as she entered the house and found that the door was full of slaughter, she did not go to report to the official first, but took advantage of this opportunity to loot all the belongings in the family and slipped away without a sound.

Poor Dong Ge'er thought that his mother had met with an accident and almost fainted on the spot.

After Liu Yuqin and his group were clawed, Dali Temple also tortured them, and as a result, the group of people all said that they intended to kill people and did not rob money. The officials of Dali Temple also searched the hideout of Liu Yuqin and Liu Tingzhong, and indeed did not find any Chu family's property.

So Chu Qingruo became more and more curious about how the family's belongings were lost.

Now that Kang Zi found Chu Wenhong's figure appearing near the gambling house in the west of the city, Chu Qingruo became more and more determined in his thoughts.

After Yan's mother learned the news, despite everyone's dissuasion, she insisted on supporting her sick body and came to her room with the help of Chunju. Chu Qingruo understood very well the purpose of Yan's mother coming to her room, but Chu Wenhong's behavior made Chu Qingruo's heart chill. So Chu Qingruo opened his mouth for the first time to brush Yan's mother's request.

Yan's mother touched a soft nail, and her heart was very sad, Chunju kept comforting her when she saw this, and even if the young lady punished her aunt and grandmother, she would not hurt her life, so Yan's mother gave up and went back to the room to rest.

At dusk the next day, Kang Zi came to report that it was Chu Wenhong, Aunt Chu, who appeared near the gambling house in the west of the city! And Kangzi also brought an even more infuriating news: a large part of the Chu family's real estate deeds and jewelry have been verified to be in the pawnshops of all sizes in the imperial capital. When Kangzi said this, he whispered with some embarrassment and asked Chu Qingruo if he wanted to bring people back?

Chu Qingruo pondered for a while, nodded and ordered Kangzi to bring people back at night, and Kangzi asked embarrassedly where to take them? raised his hand and helped his slightly swollen head, and asked him to take the person to his father in Papaya Lane, and let his father decide.

Kang Zi took the order out of Yusheng Garden, Dongzhu and Zhou's mother stepped out of Chu Qingruo's room with an angry face, and the two muttered quietly as they walked: "This aunt and grandmother who took advantage of the fire to rob were sent to the master and let the master deal with it?" At that time, the master was not raised high and fell gently. ”

"That's it, my aunt and grandmother are the eldest sister of the master, and the master is afraid that he won't even dare to say more than half a word of scolding, what's the use! Alas...... It's really a sin to have such a relative on the stall! ”

Chu Qingruo stood at the window, listening to the hug between Mother Zhou and Dongzhu in the courtyard, and smiled bitterly. What to do? Who told her to have such a father and aunt on the stall? The only way to do this is to have money and people to be happy, and I just hope that the aunt and grandmother who have nothing to do can be restrained!

I also hope that my father can take this opportunity to figure out that some relatives should be broken, so it is better to break it early. Any kind of affection should not be a one-sided effort, you have affection for others, but for others, maybe your affection happens to be her

He can handle your weapon.

But Rao is as smart as Chu Qingruo never thought that when Kang Zi escorted Chu Wenhong to the small courtyard of Papaya Lane and handed it over to Chu Wenxuan for disposal, Chu Wenxuan not only did not punish Chu Wenhong, but also hugged her and cried bitterly because his eldest sister would not die. After crying, Kang Zi was stunned and told him to go back and tell Chu Qingruo to redeem the Chu family's belongings in the pawnshop as soon as possible.

Kang Zi returned to Yusheng Yuan with a stomach full of complaints, and angrily relayed Chu Wenxuan's words to Chu Qingruo. After finishing speaking, Dongzhu and Zhou's mother couldn't help but scold, while Chu Qingruo had an expression of "I had expected it a long time ago", and waved his hand to make them all stand back, leaving him alone in the room to be quiet and quiet.

's father is such a person, in order to win a word of praise from others, he can push her out without blinking an eye. He always calculates his interests very well and protects them properly, but among the interests he calculates, she will never be included in her daughter.

The more Chu Qingruo thought about it, the more ridiculous she felt, let her redeem the Chu family's property? As long as there is no loss in his pocket, does it matter if his daughter's money is lost?

Sometimes, Chu Qingruo really wanted someone to suddenly come and tell her that she was not Chu Wenxuan's biological daughter, she was carried, picked up, and passed on. In this way, she didn't hate him so much, but could understand all his actions.

But! Chu Qingruo looked at her face in the bronze mirror, and the two almost identical faces reminded her that she had Chu Wenxuan's blood flowing in her body, and she was Chu Wenxuan's biological daughter! Chu Qingruo, who was upset, put the bronze mirror on the table, stood up and walked to the courtyard.

Seeing her walk out of the door, Kangzi hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Young lady, how should this matter be handled?" ”

Chu Qingruo gritted his teeth: "Kangzi, tell all the pawnshops, but if the property under the name of the Chu family, Chu Wenhong has no ability to redeem it, please dispose of it casually!" ”

Kangzi was surprised: "Young lady, is this not going to be redeemed?" ”

Dongzhu hated that iron could not be made of steel, and poked Kangzi's head fiercely: "What are you doing when you redeem it?" So that my aunt and grandmother can take it out and be it again? Besides, Miss is now married and is the young lady of the Fu family! The property of the Chu family has nothing to do with the married lady, so why should the young lady redeem it now? ”

Mother Zhou also said indignantly on the side: "That's it, such a large sum of silver, what the master said is light, ask the young lady to redeem the husband's silver?" Do you dare to love him as the Fu family's money in Miss Yes's pocket? It's so easy to say, just take it? ”

Kangzi was dumbfounded by the two of them, so he had to raise his hand to beg for mercy, and obediently took Chu Qingruo's instructions to go out to do something.

As for Chu Wenxuan, after hearing this reply, he angrily used his unparalyzed right hand and right foot to beat his chest and feel sorry for his property, and he scolded Chu Qingruo for having no conscience, a white-eyed wolf, and an unfamiliar little beast day and night, Chu Wenhong couldn't help but secretly curse Chu Qingruo's tough methods in his heart after pretending to comfort him.

Dong Ge'er, who really couldn't listen to it, angrily threw down the books in his hand and wanted to reason with his uncle, but he was disturbed by his unreasonable mother, so angry that he could only close the door and simply come out of sight.

The scolding in Papaya Lane quickly reached Chu Qingruo's ears, and after she heard it, she was already poked by such a family affection, although her heart was as painful as a blunt knife cutting flesh, she could only smile helplessly on her face: "Forget it, let him scold!" When he gets tired of scolding, he naturally stops scolding. ”

The people in Yusheng Yuan were extremely distressed when they heard this, but they didn't know how to comfort them. Even Old Lady Fu and Old Man Fu couldn't help but feel distressed when they heard this, and Old Lady Fu even scolded Chu Wenxuan for being scorched on the outside and tender on the inside.

The days slowly wore out a lot in Chu Wenxuan's scolding, and finally waited until Chu Wenxuan's scolding was tired and stopped, and it was less than two days after it calmed down, Lu Yiqing walked into the Fu Mansion with a heavy face on his face, and announced a heart-wrenching and unbelievable news.

The stuffy gourd fell off a cliff in a battle, his life and death are uncertain, and his whereabouts are unknown!

Chu Qingruo, who had been exhausted for several days, suddenly heard the bad news, and couldn't help but feel black in front of his eyes, and his body couldn't move as if it had been filled with lead, and he fell down heavily in everyone's exclamations.

Lu Yiqing stepped forward and wanted to reach out to support her, but was surprised to see her coiled up woman's hair, remembering the fact that she was already a wife, and hesitated for a moment to let Mother Zhou and them take a step faster to support Chu Qingruo.

After a moment of trance, Lu Yiqing turned back and shouted to Deshun outside the door as if he had just woken up from a dream: "Quick, go and ask the imperial doctor!" ”

After the imperial doctor came to prescribe the pulse, Zhou's mother sent the imperial doctor out of Yusheng Garden. Chu Qingruo struggled to sit up, pulled Lu Yiqing's sleeve, trembled his lips and asked with difficulty, "Is there ...... Find His ...... His ......"

Such a Chu Qingruo is something that Lu Yiqing has never seen before, and he is pitiful and fragile.

The Chu Qingruo he knew had always been full of sunshine, like grass after the rain, strong and optimistic. But like this, she has a miserable white face today, looking at herself with infinite sadness in her eyes, and asking herself bitterly, can her husband's body be found, and she doesn't even dare to say the word "corpse".

Lu Yiqing wanted to speak, but he opened his mouth slightly but found that he didn't know what to say. There seem to be thousands of knives in my heart.

It is said that women are made of water, so women love to shed tears at every turn. But who knows that the tears that women hold back and do not shed are the real heartbreaking sadness.

Chu Qingruo saw that he didn't speak for a long time, and for a while she only felt that her internal organs were in severe pain, and she couldn't help but arch her back, lowered her head, and fell on her two hands that were tightly grasping his sleeves.
