Chapter 7 Remarkable Characters

Behind the door, a small servant slowly pushed the door open, revealing a crack in the door, stuck his head out, looked the two of them up and down a few times, and asked, "Is there something wrong?" ”

"We want to find your old man, and the trouble will be passed on."

After a moment's hesitation, the little guy nodded in agreement.

After waiting for about a cup of tea at the door, the door slowly opened, and the little guy made a respectful gesture.

"Please, two of you, our master is invited."

Shen Lian Yin Chen glanced at each other, and walked directly into the little guy who led the way in front.

When they came out of the house, the little man who led the way retreated.

The door was open, and an old man sat inside, even if he was old, but judging from his demeanor and the momentum of the whole person, he must have been a good figure when he was young.

"You're looking for me?"

Old Man Wu took the initiative to ask.

The two walked in, and Shen Lian explained, "We want to find your son for something, I wonder if he can be at home?" ”

Old Man Wu didn't respond, his gaze first wandered over her for a moment, and then fell on Yin Chen's body.

There is an indescribable nobility in him, which emanates from his bones, and this woman, he can't see through it, it seems that both of them are unusual.

"You call him."

Old Man Wu whispered to the butler standing aside.

Immediately, the butler obediently walked out.

He wondered when these two men had come to his son. Did the kid get into trouble outside, or were these two his friends? "I wonder when the two of them came?"

Old Man Wu asked curiously, because he really couldn't figure it out.

Without any hesitation, Shen Lian directly refused to answer.

"Let's wait until Wu hires out."

This can make Old Man Wu a little unable to get off the stage for a while, he has been respected by countless people in his life, and it is the first time that he has been so stubbornly denied face, he still looks like a little girl, and he is suddenly a little angry.

But after all, he is a person who has seen the world, even if he is old, he still understands the basic etiquette, and besides, the identity of the person who came is not clear, he naturally will not offend easily.

In case the other party is not good, he will do it easily, causing too serious consequences, but it will be difficult to stop.

It all depends on when they came.

Yin Chen stood there, squinting at Shen Lian.

It's really not an ordinary woman, she is not afraid of any power and wealth, it seems that she is indeed suitable for herself, and she is the person she wants to find.

After waiting for a short time, the housekeeper hurried over with Wu Ping.

After entering the house, Wu Ping looked at Shen Lian and Yin Chen very politely, "I don't know when the two of you are looking for me?" ”

A sneer twitched at the corner of Shen Lian's mouth.

If he really looks like a handsome son, he is also quite talented, and it is in this way that it will be easier to fascinate the women in the land of smoke and willows.

There are mostly uneducated and miserable people, who have always had a good impression of such people.

Without talking nonsense with him, Shen Lian asked directly, "Do you know Zheng Qiao?" ”

In one sentence, Wu Ping's face changed greatly, and such a reaction was enough to prove everything.

But what Shen Lian didn't expect was that he directly denied it.

"I don't know her, and I've never heard of this name, are you misunderstanding something?"

"If it's a misunderstanding, do you think we'll find you?"

This sentence made him even more frightened.

But there is no way, he can only bite himself and not know him, otherwise, the consequences he has to bear will not be so simple.

Knowing that he didn't admit it so easily, Shen Lian was not surprised.

"Let me tell you a story, a man went to the Qinglou, met the Oiran inside, the two of them with continuous contact, have feelings, and have the idea of wanting to leave together, but, want to leave from the Qinglou, you need to redeem the money, two people can't take out so much, so they want to elope together......"

Before the story was finished, Wu Ping interrupted directly.

"What do you mean by this nonsense?"

Glancing at him, Shen Lian smiled and said, "Don't worry, the wonderful ones are behind." ”

"However, the Oiran did not know that the man had a family affair, and that, in the process of eloping, the man killed her, disfigured her, and sank into the lake."

At this moment, Wu Ping's face was already very ugly, but he was still trying to endure it as much as possible.

"The story is over, you can go."

"What are you doing in such a hurry to get us away? I want to tell you that there is another crucial thing in this story, the man thought that as long as he killed someone, there would be no evidence, but he forgot the jade pendant. ”

In this way, Wu Ping, who was originally panicked in his heart, became even more flustered.

"I don't know what you're talking about, I still have something to do, so I won't accompany you."

Old Man Wu, who had been sitting there silently watching all this, already knew in his heart that this matter should be inseparable from his son.

Moreover, he also vaguely heard that a few days ago, a female corpse with a destroyed face was salvaged from the lake.

Now Wu Ping is reacting like this, and he already knows what the specific situation is.

Even if he doesn't like him, but after all, he is his own son, even if he doesn't fight anymore, he has to do his best to keep him, who made him his own son? Just as Wu Ping was about to leave, Shen Lian directly took out the jade pendant.

"This is the token of love you gave to Zheng Qiao."

Wu Ping turned his head suddenly, and after seeing the jade pendant, he was stunned in place.

Yes, it was indeed given to Zheng Qiao by himself at that time.

At that time, after killing her, Wu Ping also tried to look for her body, but after searching all over her body, he didn't find this jade pendant, he thought it had been lost, but he never thought that it was in the hands of this woman.

After recovering from his senses, he hurriedly waved his hand.

"I don't know, it's not my family's heirloom."

These words exposed him even more, and Shen Lian's eyes were cold.

"Since you don't know this jade pendant, how do you know that it is an heirloom jade pendant? Besides, there is a Wu character engraved on it, do you think this has nothing to do with you? If you think it really doesn't matter, then I'll smash it! ”

Slowly lifted the jade pendant, pretending to be about to fall, and without waiting for Wu Ping to stop him, Old Man Wu couldn't sit still.

"Please slow down, that is indeed the heirloom of my Wu family."

This jade pendant has been passed down for I don't know how many generations, not to mention how much it is worth for the time being, the meaning alone is already unusual.

Hearing this, Shen Lian chuckled.

"Your father and son's words contradict each other, who should I believe?"

"It's really my Wu family."

Old Man Wu stood up anxiously and walked quickly to Shen Lian's side, wanting to take it back.

But this is evidence, how can it be so easy to give it to him? Shen Lian directly put the jade pendant into his arms, "Wu Ping's killing of Zheng Qiao is already self-defeating, I want to ask what is the reason?" ”

Seeing Wu Ping standing there like a log, Old Man Wu became anxious, pointed at him and scolded, "Hurry up!" If there is any mistake in the heirloom, I want you to look good. ”

In desperation, he had to reluctantly admit everything.

That's right, Zheng Qiao did die at the hands of Wu Ping.

At that time, I was in a bad mood and went to Nayi Hongyuan to have fun, and happened to meet Zheng Qiao, seeing that she was young and beautiful, he moved his lust heart, and even handed over the heirloom jade pendant to her when he drank too much at one time.

After sobering up, Wu Ping regretted it, but it was too late.

He and a woman in the Qinglou are impossible at all, just for short-term happiness.

I have a wife and children, how can I give up everything for her? But he also knew that if he wanted to return the jade pendant directly, Zheng Qiaodu would never be willing to do so.

So, he thought of a way, that is, pretending to elope with Zheng Qiao, and then take the jade pendant away on the way, so that he could get out smoothly.

But as it turned out, he thought too perfectly.

Before Zheng Qiao was about to elope with him, Wu Ping specially blessed her to take everything away and not leave anything.
