Chapter 112: The Outer House
Su Wuming nodded: "I have thought about it, in the entire Cheng Mansion, the person who is most likely not to share much property must be Lu Wei, Cheng Yu is usually the most jealous of his son-in-law, afraid that they will be anti-guest and control their Cheng family industry, after Cheng Bo was killed, his family business will inevitably be divided into several points, although Cheng Zhong is not successful, he has children and daughters under his knees, and they are very much liked by Cheng Yu, just for his granddaughters and grandchildren, he will also leave a large part of the property to Cheng Zhong; Although Cheng Dong was born to a concubine, he is very tenacious, and he is Cheng Yu's son, Cheng Yu has to leave something behind him, not to mention that Xia He Xia Ting serves him all day long, and the wind next to the bed is not less, so after thinking about it, the only ones who are most likely to get nothing are Cheng Die and Cheng Qing; It is very possible that Cheng Qing will not get anything, otherwise Cheng Die may only get a small part of the property, then Lu Wei has great ambitions and will definitely not be reconciled, if Cheng Yu dies before making a will, the Cheng family's property will have to be divided equally, and at that time, he will not get a few. ”
Su Wuming said something, and Jiang Ying immediately agreed.
The night is deeper, the surroundings of Sufu are quiet, occasionally you can hear the chirping of autumn insects, the windows are ajar, the autumn wind blows coolness from time to time, Wen Wan'er sits under the lamp and reads, that is the poetry collection she only recently found, it is a collection of poems handed down by those famous artists in the Tang Dynasty.
Among them, there are Li Bai Du Fu, there are Cen Shen Wang Wei, and Meng Haoran and so on, the poetry collections are all famous, Wen Wan'er got the treasure after getting it, almost every day before going to sleep to evaluate one or two.
At this time, she was reading Cen Shen's poems, most of Cen Shen's poems were side poems, and there was a light elegance in the heroism, which made Wen Wan'er like it very much, and when she saw the emotion, she couldn't help but chant a sentence or two.
Wen Wan'er was reading a collection of poems, she was enjoying herself, Su Wuming looked at the window, but his heart was full of doubts, he felt that the murder case that happened in Chengfu looked too chaotic now, but after careful analysis, he felt that it was too simple, and a murder case was chaotic and simple, so it was difficult to solve.
The lights in the house were flickering, and Wen Wan'er had already closed the poetry book, chatting with Nangong Yan about the store, such as it was getting cold today, and the demand for cloth was much greater, and they had to take this opportunity to make a lot of money.
The night passed like this, I don't know what kind of situation Cheng Mansion is tonight.
The next morning, as soon as everyone got up, Jiang Ying hurried back, after Jiang Ying came back, he looked tired, thinking that it was because he didn't have a good rest, but although he was tired, he was also excited, and immediately said after seeing Su Wuming: "Master Su, you are really like a god, that Lu Wei really has a problem." ”
"Oh, what's the problem?"
"Last night, Cheng Mansion held a big funeral, it was very chaotic, and this Lu Wei secretly left Cheng Mansion and went to a secluded house in Qiantang County, and his subordinates followed, and found that there was a woman in that house, which was Lu Wei's outer house."
After hearing the news, Su Wuming's brows trembled slightly, and then said: "This Lu Wei is able to run the Cheng family's shop by relying on Cheng Die's identity, and now he is raising a foreign house outside, if Cheng Die finds out, I'm afraid he is good-looking." ”
"Who says it's not, if Cheng Yu finds out, I'm afraid he will be cleaned out of the house!"
Jiang Ying's words suddenly made everyone have a flash of inspiration, this Cheng Yu was originally guarding against Lu Wei, if Cheng Yu found out that Lu Wei was raising other women outside, this Lu Wei would not want to get ahead, for this reason, would Lu Wei kill Cheng Yu in order to avoid being cleaned out of the house?
Now, the person most likely to become the murderer has appeared, and he is Lu Wei, a person who has been unnoticed.
But he had an alibi to prove that when Cheng Yu was poisoned and died, he was with Cheng Die; They may lie, but if others don't change their ways, there's nothing they can do.
Everyone glanced at each other, and finally set their eyes on Su Wuming, at this time, only Su Wuming could have a way to make others change their words.
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Su Wuming smiled lightly and shrugged his shoulders.
Su Wuming's method is very simple, that is, to spread the news of Lu Wei's foreign house, as long as the news spreads and reaches Cheng Die's ears, or Cheng Zhong's ears, they will definitely react.
Now, Cheng Yu is dead, in order to be able to get more of the family property, the people of Cheng Mansion must be suspicious of each other again, and in addition to suspicion, they may also secretly attack each other, Lu Wei's house is the best news for Cheng Zhong and them, as soon as this news comes out, in order to defeat Cheng Die and his wife, someone must be going to turn against each other.
After the news was released, a government official came to report, saying that Cheng Bo's widow had rushed back from the manor outside the city, and asked Su Wuming if he wanted to take a look.
Su Wuming had a few questions he wanted to ask Cheng Bo's widow, and after nodding, he agreed.
Cheng Fu has begun to cry, and some subordinates are even more busy, Su Wuming called Cheng Bo's widow to a secluded place and asked: "Now that Cheng Bo's murder case has not been resolved, what do the ladies think?" ”
Cheng Bo's widows glanced at each other, and they all said that they were women's families and had no opinions.
Su Wuming frowned slightly, and asked again: "After Cheng Bo was killed, the family business of the Cheng Mansion had to be divided, although your husband died, but after all, you are members of the Cheng family, and Cheng Yu wants to share some of your estate, but why don't you wait for the division of the family, and go to the manor outside the city?" ”
One of Cheng Bo's ladies sighed and said, "Now we only have a group of women left, what do we want so many family businesses to do?" My father-in-law also gave us a lot of things before we left, and he also gave us the manor outside the city, and it was already good to have a place to live, and we really didn't want to run around in the whirlpool of this Chengfu fighting for the family business. ”
Being able to see through some things is not a bad thing, Su Wuming bowed slightly, and then let them go down, after all, Cheng Yu is dead, and as daughters-in-law and granddaughters, they have to do some filial piety.
It's just that not long after they left, when Su Wuming and the others were about to leave Cheng Mansion, a bright woman suddenly came to them and said that she had something to say.
This woman Su Wuming They have also seen before, it is Cheng Yu's granddaughter Cheng Rou, she is now a slim age, in a few years, she will definitely be a woman full of charm, but I don't know what she has to say.
"Miss Cheng has any medicine to say?"
"Yes, in fact, we didn't leave Cheng Mansion voluntarily at all, but grandpa asked us to leave."
This news surprised everyone, and Su Wuming hurriedly asked, "Cheng Yu asked you to leave, did you explain the reason?" ”
"Naturally, it is explained, my father was killed, there are only a few women and children in our family, staying in Chengfu will have to be bullied by others, and after my father's death, we have no fun fighting for this business, it is better to quit this battle and enjoy life quietly, after grandpa finished saying these truths, he gave us a lot of money, and gave us the manor outside the city, the manor is very big and beautiful, I heard my mother say that it is worth a lot of money!"
After Cheng Rou said this, he stopped speaking, Su Wuming's brows condensed slightly, and he thought a lot, and slowly, he seemed to understand something, and after understanding some things, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and only after a long time did he say a word: "This Cheng Yu is quite thoughtful." ”
After letting Cheng Rou leave, Wen Wan'er hurriedly asked, "Xianggong, you are absolutely Cheng Yu's arrangement, which is the best for gentle women?" ”
Su Wuming nodded: "This arrangement is naturally the best for these women, after all, without men, what's the point of fighting!" ”
"Also, the man is the pillar of the family, if the pillar collapses, everything will be meaningless!"
Not long after Cheng Rou left, Cheng's mansion suddenly became chaotic, because Cheng Die knew about Lu Wei raising a foreign house outside, she didn't care about her face, quarreled with Lu Wei, and asked Lu Wei to kick the woman out immediately, if she didn't do this, the two would immediately reconcile.
The women of the Tang Dynasty are still very courageous in this regard, Lu Wei doesn't understand that he is so cautious, how can he be discovered, and he can't leave Cheng Die at this time, so after Cheng Die is powerful, he immediately promised to drive the woman outside away.
In fact, he said that he was driving away, but he was just giving some money to let her leave temporarily, and when he took control of the family, he would still marry her home.
After this matter spread in Cheng's mansion, Cheng Zhong immediately looked for an opportunity to see Su Wuming, and said conclusively that that evening, Lu Wei was not with them at all, only Cheng Die was with them, and the reason why they said that at that time was because they were in the same boat at the time, and they didn't expect Lu Wei to have a problem at all, and now Lu Wei is raising a foreign house outside, if their father knows about it, he will definitely not be able to spare Lu Wei, so Lu Wei is likely to be the murderer of their father.
Lu Wei is only Cheng Yu's son-in-law, if he kills people, he will definitely have no ethical burden in his heart.
The spearhead of everything is pointed at Lu Wei, and everyone agrees that Lu Wei is the murderer who killed Cheng Yu, and even the murderer who killed Cheng Bo.
But just when everyone thought so, Su Wuming locked himself in the house and thought, and no one knew what he was thinking, but everyone knew very well that when Su Wuming came out of the house, he would definitely be able to bring you an exciting news.
Su Wuming stayed in the house almost alone for most of the day, and after most of the day, he walked out of the house, and after he came out, he said a sentence, which was a long-awaited sentence: "Go to Chengfu, I already know who the murderer is." ”
This sentence is inspiring, when everyone rushed to Chengfu, Lin Yun went to the county government to call Qian Sheng, the murder case is about to be solved, he can't go to this county order, after all, this is to be filed.
