She stood behind the corner, looked at Dou Yueshan embarrassedly, and pretended that nothing had happened, and laughed dryly: "Zi said... I... I'm just here, strolling. Hehehe, just go shopping. ”

Dou Yueshan stared at her and wondered, "Sister-in-law... Didn't Fang just take a walk in the red maple forest? I saw that Miss Qianshan and Xiaocui were all with me? Why are they all gone now? ”

Jiang Chengjia covered up indiscriminately: "I... I ordered them to prepare a supper... It's not dinner, and I'm a little hungry. ”

Dou Yueshan looked at her with heavy eyes, as if she didn't believe it.

Dou Taijun heard Jiang Chengjia's voice, her eyelids jumped suddenly, listening to Dou Yueshan's conversation with her, she coughed lightly, and said to the little lady who was hiding behind the corner and refused to show up: "Ah Luo... Don't hide, come out..."

Jiang Chengjia was stunned for a moment, standing in the corner and refusing to move, struggling to move.

Dou Yueshan was silent for a moment and asked, "Sister-in-law... Did you hear the conversation between me and my great-grandmother? ”

The woman in front of her was a little cramped, the little face that was white and flawless, with a little flush was piled up with a smile, trying to hide her current panic in this way, she didn't answer his words, but walked out of the corner of the wall gently, and bowed slightly to Dou Taijun, who was sitting in the center of the small couch in the courtyard not far away, and said, "Great grandmother Ci'an...."

Dou Taijun nodded at her and said, "Come here." ”

She spoke softly. The courtyard was dark, she couldn't see what Dou Taijun's expression was, she could only judge her mood by her voice?

Dou Yueshan looked at her quietly.

Jiang Chengjia couldn't help but say, "My grandmother called me!" Zi said, I'll go over first! ”

She thought that if she could escape one by one now, she would not let Dou Yueshan and Dou Taijun both stare at her.

Since Dou Taijun asked her to come over, presumably because she wanted to talk to her about something, it was not good for Dou Yueshan to continue to stay here.

Sure enough, when she slowly moved her steps towards Dou Taijun, who was sitting in the courtyard, Dou Yueshan, who stayed at the Moon Gate, only stood for a moment, and before she could reach the stone couch bench in the courtyard, he turned around and left Fengxi Residence.

She came to Dou Taijun nervously, and through the dim glow, she saw Dou Taijun's appearance clearly, and naturally saw the frost on her face at the moment.

This kind old lady has hardly lost her temper since she entered the Red Maple Village, and she treats people extremely gently and kindly. It's rare to show such a cold and solemn expression.

Jiang Chengjia beat a drum in his heart.

I saw Dou Taijun resting with his eyes closed, and his serious expression never relaxed. waited until he noticed the panic and anxiety of the little lady in front of him before he opened his eyes and looked at her.

"I hope... You hid all the words you overheard behind the moon gate in your heart, rotting in your stomach... Don't talk about this matter with Zhaoyuan. Dou Taijun went straight to the point and said it very clearly.

Jiang Chengjia was stunned for a moment, and then immediately agreed: "Daughter-in-law remember the teachings of the great-grandmother... I will never reveal half a word to my husband. ”

Dou Taijun looked at her fixedly, closed his eyes quietly, and said coldly: "Ah Luo." I also know what Zhaoyuan did. I know that you didn't drive into the Huaiyin Marquis Mansion of your own volition, but you were forced to come here by that stinky boy... However, I want to tell you today, since you have entered the Hou Mansion, it is good to live a good life. Don't use your brains. ”

Jiang Chengjia panicked, his dark eyes turned slightly, and then he let go of the uneasiness in his heart, and said firmly to Dou Taijun: "Great grandmother... Please rest assured, since the granddaughter-in-law married into the Hou Mansion, she has felt the gentleness and thoughtfulness of her husband. He was a good man, not as heinous and filthy as the outside world had rumored. Right now, what the granddaughter-in-law is thinking about is how to serve a good husband and how to live this life well... There are no other ideas. Just now, the granddaughter-in-law saw Zi Yue rushing towards Zhuangzi from the red maple forest in a hurry, so she thought something was going on and secretly followed. I really overheard those words... Collided with the great-grandmother today... It's the granddaughter-in-law's fault... The granddaughter-in-law promised that today's incident would never be repeated in the future. ”

Her remarks were to express her position, and to explain the reason why she had secretly followed Dou Yueshan to Fengxi's residence, so that Dou Taijun could let down her guard.

Dou Taijun closed his eyes and listened to the little girl's explanation slowly, and listened to her loud voice, without any weakness, so he nodded with satisfaction.

When she opened her eyes again, she gently grabbed Jiang Chengjia's hands and motioned for her to sit down.

Jiang Chengjia was silent, and slowly sat down beside Dou Taijun, obediently preparing to listen to the training.

Who knew that she heard Dou Taijun sigh and say, "Zhaoyuan, this kid... I have had a hard time since I was a child. When his father and mother were young... It's not a couple you and I want to marry. So I don't even like Zhaoyuan. He has been sensible since he was a child. Most of the rumors from the outside world are false... In fact, Zhaoyuan, this kid is kind-hearted, although he is colder, but if he gets used to getting along... It's also a good match. I can see that Zhaoyuan he... I like you very much. He would never treat a woman like this, so gentle and attentive. Even an old woman of my age is a little envious. I spoil him the most, and I feel sorry for him the most..."

The old woman's words suddenly paused at this point. Dream Literature Network

Jiang Chengjia listened carefully.

Dou Taijun slowed down, and then said, "Ah Luo, good boy. You are also a good boy who is smart and gentle. You treat Zhaoyuan well, I can see it. It is said that I have seen people's hearts for a long time, and I have looked at you for so many days, thinking about Zhaoyuan wholeheartedly, and I know that you are at peace and want to live a good life with him. ”

The pair of old wrinkled and somewhat rough hands tightly grasped the slender hands of the woman beside him, and said with some trembling: "Promise the great grandmother, no matter what happens to you and your husband in the future, you two will walk hand in hand." ”

Jiang Chengjia listened to her words, and felt very grateful in her heart.

She nodded vigorously and promised Dou Taijun: "Grandmother don't worry, in this life... I love my husband alone, and I will definitely spend the wind and rain with him in the future, and grow old with her. ”

Dou Taijun listened, a condensed face eased down, gradually smiled, patted the back of her hand and said, "It's not early... If you don't go back, Zhaoyuan's kid will be worried again. ”

Jiang Chengjia's eyes froze, and when he saw that Dou Taijun had returned to his old attitude towards her, he felt a lot more relieved, so he responded: "Oh... The granddaughter-in-law retired. ”

Dou Taijun bowed slightly at her, and watched her out of Fengxi Residence. Watch the petite figure fade away in the twilight. She sighed again, calmed down, and called to the moon gate leading to the garden on the right side of Fengxi Residence: "Come out... Haven't you been hiding for so long? ”

A figure leaned out from under the arched moon gate.

It turned out that Mrs. Cao and Bi Yun did not leave Fengxi Residence, but hid in the corner behind the moon gate on the right side of this courtyard.

Dou Taijun shook his head, as if helpless, and his vicissitudes of voice revealed three points of melancholy: "I don't know how... I saw that Arlo was very similar to you when you were young. She is a girl who likes to get to the bottom of things. ”

Cao's face was a little pale, and he slowly walked up to Dou Taijun, owed to her, and replied, "Ah Luo... It's really similar to when the younger generation was young..."

Dou Taijun was silent.

"Dou Taijun... Zi said that he is so persistent, will he continue to investigate along this clue? Cao looked nervous and seemed very uneasy.

Dou Taijun didn't say a word, silently staring at the carvings on the arched moon gate directly opposite Fengxi Residence.

Mrs. Cao lowered her eyes and said with some loss: "Over the years... I'm looking forward to this child... I miss being able to come and see me a few times from time to time. I also thought that if I could tell him the truth one day, it might not be as bad as expected. Can... When I saw Zi Yue's angry appearance just now, I was terrified... I'm afraid that when he learns the truth... Resentment against me. ”

Dou Taijun was worried, but still silent.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Mrs. Cao also closed her mouth.

After a while, I only heard the old woman beside me sigh loudly: "Now... I'm afraid we won't be able to stop Zi Yue from investigating this matter. Sooner or later, the kid will figure everything out. ”

Mrs. Cao clenched her palms, her face turned a little paler, she gritted her teeth tightly, and said anxiously: "What can Taijun do... Stop Zi Yu from continuing to investigate? ”

Dou Taijun stabilized his voice and said lightly: "Don't think about hiding it from him." Zi said that he knows the truth, and he won't blame you..."

Mrs. Cao lowered her head, flustered around the silk in her hand, thinking about the past events one by one. A great panic enveloped her entire heart.

The truth of the year, as if gradually pushed by time, has lifted the corner of the veil that covers the surface.

Feng Xi is in the center, filled with a faint sense of depression.

As the last rays of afterglow on the horizon slowly faded, the heavens and the earth were completely plunged into a new round of darkness. The moon hung high, cold, shiny, and even a little dazzling.

On the twenty-seventh day of the lunar month, there was another heavy snowfall in the capital, which was extremely cold.

Deng Yuan's case has been delayed again and again, and it has come to this day.

Emperor Wei has frequently mentioned this matter in the court, Jiang Chengyi knows who the culprit is behind the scenes, but he can't present the case to Emperor Wei as it is, so he can only find excuses to prevaricate while looking for unusual clues. Finally, with his unremitting efforts, he found a trace of strangeness in various case files and testimonies. After a Deng Mansion guard who was lucky enough to be stocked from this earth-shattering explosion case entered the Dongfu Division, under the interrogation of him and Jing Ting overnight, he inadvertently learned from this person that when it snowed heavily in the city, the guards of the dungeon had specially cleared the snow on the inclined window, so although there was heavy snow outside, the guards could take turns to clear the snow on the inclined window, so there was no open fire in the dungeon at that time.
