"Why did you kill the people of the Liu family?" After being silent for a while, Cai Yu suddenly asked.

Although he could guess some, he couldn't know the specific reason.

Aunt You didn't want to answer this question, but she didn't know what came to mind, so she changed her mind again.

"Miss Shen, she also knows that I killed someone, right?"

Cai Yu's eyes flashed, but he didn't make a sound.

"It's time for dinner soon, I'll do it first, you call Miss Shen, I have something to say." Aunt You rubbed her hands and stood up, and after she finished explaining Cai Yu, she went straight to the kitchen.

Cai Yu couldn't figure out Aunt You's thoughts, so she could only call me according to her words.

"Auntie, she ...... "I don't know how to say the next words."

"The 'day' of Posa Village is the Liu family, we are investigating and secretly visiting in Bosa Village, they must all know that as long as they follow our direction, there is no evidence, and it is not difficult to guess that Aunt You is the culprit who killed so many people in his family, and it is impossible for the Liu family to let her go." Cai Yu said expressionlessly.

I paused, lowering my eyes slightly.

"Aunt You said that she wants you to go over for dinner, she still has something to say." Cai Yu walked up to me and reached out and grabbed my hand, which was still writing.

"Hmm." I answered indistinctly, and withdrew my hand with a slight skill.

"I still have a lot of excerpts to be approved, and I'll get over it later." I folded my sleeves and continued to write the fold.

Cai Yu looked at me and simply took away the excerpt I wanted to write.

"Qingzhi, are you running away?"

"Jokes." I smiled disdainfully, "I, Shen Qingzhi, how could I have run away from anything?" ”

"In that case, let's go together." Cai Yu took advantage of the situation and turned away and asked me to go out.

I glared at him, but Cai Yu let me stare as if I didn't see it, so I had no choice but to put down my pen and obediently follow him to the lobby.

Not long after I sat down, Aunt You walked in with food, she set the dishes and chopsticks for us, and then sat next to me, I wanted to serve a bowl of soup for her, but she stretched out her hand to stop me.

"Good girl, you sit." Aunt You's eyes were very red, and she looked like she had just cried while cooking.

"Auntie, I ......"

"What should come will always come, and the aunt has nothing to complain about." Aunt You saw the guilt in my heart, she patted the back of my hand gently, then got up and went to the back to take out a small crockpot, and put it in front of me, "If you like to eat it, I will give it to you, put it here for me, and I won't need it in the future." ”

I didn't excuse myself, but I didn't take it.

Aunt You couldn't help but sigh when she saw me like this.

"A year ago," she began to slowly talk about the reason for her killing, "my daughter-in-law was pregnant, and my wife and son were still alive at that time, and our family was so happy. ”

"My daughter-in-law is not a big lady, but she is very filial, the busy work inside and outside the house, often refuses us to work hard, we also feel sorry for her, and always secretly finish the work at home."

"Such a good daughter-in-law, my wife and I like her in our hearts and treat her as our own daughter, but Liu Xingwang, that brute, specializes in bullying his neighbors on weekdays, gambling and drinking, he actually paid attention to my daughter-in-law, just because my daughter-in-law once bumped into him and his little mother on the hillside behind the temple."

"One day my wife and I went out, and my son also went up the mountain to collect medicine, so he broke into my house and ...... my daughter-in-law."

Aunt You clenched her fists tightly, and her eyes with tears emitted a fierce light for a moment, you can imagine how much she hates Liu Xingwang in her heart, I am afraid that dismantling his bones and cutting off his life is not enough to make up for such hatred.

"My poor daughter-in-law......" Thinking of the days when she once opened a prosperous family, and her good daughter-in-law who was once gentle and virtuous, Aunt You's heart seemed to be dripping blood, and the tears that she desperately wanted to hold back also flowed down from her wrinkled face, wet and falling, soaked in the despair of old age.

After a while, Aunt You finally calmed down a little, and I wanted to wipe her tears with a handkerchief, but she brushed my hand away, turned around and wiped it with her sleeve.

"My daughter-in-law was humiliated, left a suicide note and hanged herself, although my son is a doctor, but he has been weak and sick since he was a child, he couldn't stand this blow, so he followed my daughter-in-law together." Sister Literature Network

"Do you know how sad I was at the time? I can't wait to go directly to Liu's house and cut down Liu Xingwang's brute! ”

When Aunt You said that she was excited, she couldn't help but raise her voice a few points, but because her old body couldn't withstand such emotional fluctuations, she coughed loudly with a pale face as she spoke, and I was startled and immediately poured water for her.

"In order to seek justice for my daughter-in-law, we went to Liu's house with a suicide note." Aunt You drank the water in the cup, and her yellow and pale complexion was better, but without resting, she began to talk again, "But our village chief, Liu Wen, that old brute, didn't say anything about protecting his son, and he also beat a rake, saying that our family wanted their family's money, and let people blow us out." “

"At that time, my wife was so angry that she fell ill in bed, and in order to take care of him, I stayed by his bedside day and night, but in the end, my wife ...... He was gone anyway. ”

"In just a few days, my wife, my son, my daughter-in-law, and my little grandson are all gone, leaving me as a lonely widow in such an empty house......"

Aunt You finally collapsed on the table and cried, crying breathlessly, as if she wanted to vent all the pain that had been suppressed in her heart for so long.

It was such an ordinary night, such an ordinary farmhouse, and in such a lonely and cold winter season, an old man of a hundred and a half cried heartbreakingly.

She originally had the dearest and most beloved person in the world, and she lived happily enough, but overnight, it was as if she had been accepted by God and became a lonely old man with no relatives and no reason, no life, pain and despair.

I can't actually understand this kind of pain, because I haven't experienced it, and I haven't had it.

But looking at such a lady, I still can't help but feel sad for her.

Fate is impermanent, people's hearts are difficult to distinguish, after all, no one can guarantee smooth health in this life, no injuries and no regrets.

Maybe... Maybe the next moment, the gears of fate have turned, and we can only accept it.

"There is justice in the world, there is a royal law, auntie, no matter what the reason, killing people is a crime." Aunt You cried for a long time, until the table was full of cold food, and the aunt's emotions gradually calmed down, Cai Yufang spoke, but this sound unkind.

"Justice? Wang Fa? Aunt You smiled bitterly and shook her head again and again, sighing, "Our village is just a small mountain village forgotten by everyone outside, how can anyone ever give us justice?" Wang Fa? It's only Po Suo Jun who is still taking care of us. ”

Cai Yu's face froze, she glanced up at me, and didn't speak again.

I suddenly felt a little hot in my cheeks, and I felt guilty and hot.

As the prime minister of Qinguo, I have the responsibility to let the people of Qinguo live and work in peace and contentment, but as a scholar, governing the country and leveling the world is the revenge that should really be realized.

But now, I have forgotten even this thought as I left the academy and left my master.

"I'm sorry, auntie." I opened my mouth to apologize to her, but a sour and self-reproach gradually welled up in my heart.

Aunt You wiped away her tears, stood up and patted me on the back, and said with a hoarse voice and forced a smile, "Girl, you didn't do anything wrong, what do you say to Auntie, I'm sorry?" Alas, everything is fate, now that the people who killed my son and daughter-in-law, and my wife are dead, I have nothing to remember, contentment. ”

"Auntie, what do you mean by that? There is no souvenir...... If you don't have a souvenir, you ......" As soon as I heard the eldest lady's resolute words, I couldn't help but feel anxious, and I just wanted to ask something but was interrupted by Cai Yu's sudden interjection.

"I don't understand, what grievances do you have with Aunt Xu, you want to blame her when you commit the crime? As far as I know, you and Aunt Xu had a very good relationship in the past, and there is really no reason to put her to death. Cai Yu couldn't figure out this question after thinking about it, although the time was not right, but maybe only now he could ask her.

"Because when Liu Xingwang's brute broke into my house, she stood at the door of my house and watched how that brute insulted my daughter-in-law." When Aunt You said this, although her face was full of anger, there was a trace of struggle and pain in her eyes.

But this is also human nature, after all, I used to have such a heart-to-heart.

"Auntie, how do you know this?" Cai Yu was very surprised by the fact in Aunt You's mouth.

"Since she went crazy from time to time, I often went to see her, after my wife was gone, I still missed her, so I went to see her where she lived, and I didn't expect her to suddenly go crazy and tell all the things that day." Aunt You laughed, laughing and laughing, but as if she was crying.

She used to be as good as her, stepping on spring together, enjoying flowers together, making pumpkin cakes together, where in this village there is no trace of them laughing together?

But after many years, they have come to this point.

"It turns out that ......" In the face of Aunt You's hatred, Cai Yu suddenly realized, but after "Da Enlightenment", he couldn't help but sigh for Aunt You, "Actually, Aunt Xu shouldn't have deliberately not saved your daughter-in-law that day, she should have fallen ill." ”

"What did you say?" Aunt You was stunned.

"I don't have direct evidence to prove it, but according to my understanding and observation in the past two days, Aunt Xu should have rarely been sober for a long time."
