Chapter 061: A Capable Woman
The beauty of West Lake is still the same.
The scholars on the ship all looked at Cheng Yu, but their eyes had changed at this time.
Cheng Yu took a deep breath, and then stepped onto Su Wuming's boat.
At this time, the lotus flowers in the West Lake have bloomed, occasionally a few dragonflies fly and dance, and the boat shuttles between the lotuses. ”
After Cheng Yu asked this sentence, he didn't say much.
Su Wuming smiled lightly: "Brother Ling was poisoned yesterday, is it a little inappropriate for you to come to the West Lake for boating today?" ”
Cheng Yu was expressionless and said: "The relationship between the two of us is not good, his death is his business, what does it have to do with me coming here to raft?" ”
Seeing that Cheng Yu didn't miss brotherhood so much, Tang Xiong suddenly said angrily: "You, you don't even care about brotherhood, you must have done something to poison and kill people, I think the murderer must be you!" ”
Tang Xiong's words did not scare Cheng Yu, only to see Cheng Yu smile coldly: "Brotherhood is brotherly love, murderers are murderers, who said that people who don't have brotherly love must be murderers?" ”
Cheng Yu's short sentence turned out to be irrefutable to Tang Xiong, Tang Xiong was very angry, looked at Su Wuming and said: "Brother Su, this person is really good at reasoning!" ”
Su Wuming smiled lightly and said, "Does the second son like Wang Yanran and Miss Wang?" ”
Su Wuming suddenly said this, which made Cheng Yu a little surprised, his slightly opened mouth for a long time and did not close it, and after a long time, he sneered: "Master Su is really Lord Su, even Miss Wang has inquired about it, admire, admire!" ”
"Please answer the question!"
"That's right, I like Miss Wang, a woman like Miss Wang, no matter who it is, as long as it's a man, you will like her at a glance."
Seeing that Cheng Yu said that Wang Yanran was so beautiful, Nangong Yan suddenly felt a sense of jealousy in her heart, and just when she was about to refute Cheng Yu a few words, Su Wuming suddenly smiled and said: "Miss Wang is such a beautiful woman, you will not hesitate to kill people in order to get her, right?" ”
Hearing this, Cheng Yu was startled, and then smiled coldly: "It turns out that Master Su is waiting for me here, that's right, in order to get Miss Wang, I don't hesitate to sacrifice everything, but I know very well that even if I sacrifice everything and kill someone for her, I won't get her, so I won't do anything to kill." ”
Cheng Yu's words are a little contradictory, since he is willing to sacrifice everything for Wang Yanran, if he has love enemies, will he kill those love enemies?
At this time, Su Wuming sighed, and then asked: "What does the second son mean by this, is it possible that even if all your rivals in love are dead, Miss Wang will not marry you?" ”
Su Wuming's words hurt a man's heart, but he said it anyway!
Cheng Yu smiled: "Wrong, it's not because Miss Wang may not like me, but because Miss Wang, as the daughter of Wang Yuanwai, will definitely not marry a concubine, and for the sake of Wang Yuanwai's own business, his son-in-law must become the head of the family, but I am in the Cheng Mansion, I'm afraid it is nothing." ”
After Cheng Yu finished speaking, there was a little loneliness in his eyes, but at this time, Su Wuming smiled coldly and said: "If Cheng Feng doesn't die, you may be nothing in Cheng Mansion, but if Cheng Feng dies, isn't all the business in the family in your hands?" ”
Cheng Yu smiled bitterly, and then said: "Master Su still doesn't know enough about my Cheng family, now that my eldest brother has been poisoned, and my father is having a funeral in the house, it can be seen that I should take care of the business in the store?" ”
Su Wuming frowned slightly for a while, and at this time, Cheng Yu continued: "My father likes my little sister more than I do, and now my father has handed over all the business in the store to my little sister to take care of, I, I'm in Cheng Mansion, it's just air, and I don't have a sense of existence at all!" ”
I don't know when, everyone has strayed into the depths of the lotus flower, the lotus leaf field, and the water splashed by the boat rolled on it, and then fell into the lake with a snap.
Cheng Yu's words were like the water that fell into the lake, which rang in the hearts of Su Wuming and the others, and then rippled.
The boat continued to float in the lake, and it was aimless, Su Wuming picked a lotus flower and turned it in his hand, and then asked: "Cheng Feng looked for you before going to make the tide, what did you both say?" ”
At this time, in the face of Su Wuming's sudden statement, Cheng Yu was no longer surprised, he only frowned slightly, and then said: "I didn't say anything, he was going to make a tide, and asked me if I wanted to see it, I am a scholar, and I have no interest in that kind of thing, and I know that he asked me to see it, but he just wanted to show that he could get a ranking in front of me, and I didn't make a mistake, how could I go!" ”
"If that's the case, why do you want to persuade Cheng Feng to drink?"
"Persuade him to drink?" Cheng Yu was a little surprised, and then hurriedly asked, "Who did Master Su listen to?" ”
"You don't care who Lord Ben listened to, you just say if there is such a thing!"
At this time, Cheng Yu suddenly realized, and after sneering, he said, "It turned out to be Sha'er's rabbit cub!" ”
Hearing Cheng Yu say such a sentence, Su Wuming couldn't help but admire his cleverness, but even so, he still wanted to know why Cheng Yu wanted to persuade him to drink, since the two of them were not in harmony, it seemed a bit nondescript to persuade him to drink.
After Cheng Yu finished saying that, he glanced at Su Wuming, and then said: "I didn't persuade him to drink, it must be that Sha'er was angry that I beat him yesterday, so I persuaded Cheng Fengjiu to come." ”
"You hit the sand yesterday?"
Cheng Yu nodded: "After returning to the house yesterday, my father hated Sha'er and the others very much, saying that they didn't protect Cheng Feng and wanted to teach him a lesson. ”
Su Wuming already had a general understanding of what Cheng Yu said.
When the boat passed through a lotus leaf, Su Wuming instructed the boatman: "Go ashore!" ”
On the shore, several people immediately left the West Lake, it was noon at this time, and several people found an inn on the street to eat, and just when they were eating, Jiang Ying and Lin Yun came to find them.
After the two sat down, Lin Yun immediately smiled and said: "Master Su is like a god, except for Zhou Tong who accepted Cheng Feng's bribe, there are other people who have also received it, even the top two in yesterday's tide competition have also been received, they originally wanted to wait a little longer and lose the battle, but they didn't expect Cheng Feng to suddenly die at that time." ”
After Lin Yun finished speaking, Jiang Ying spoke: "Even so, Zhou Tong's suspicion is still very great, because he is the only one who drank wine for Cheng Feng. ”
Su Wuming nodded: "You two hurry up and eat, after eating, help me inquire about Zhou Tong's situation, and then there is Wang Yanran's situation with Miss Wang, and see who her father wants to marry her." ”
The two nodded, and after eating and drinking, they hurriedly ran out again, while Su Wuming and the others went directly to the Cheng family's shop.
The Cheng family is in the rice and grain business, and there are many hard workers moving around in the store every day, when Su Wuming and the others went in, Cheng Die was directing the guys to move things, she looked very beautiful, but when she was directing, the tone was very tough, and it didn't make people question it a little.
Perhaps, Cheng Die is really a person who is very good at doing business, just like Wen Wan'er, but it's different, Wen Wan'er can do business, and when faced with some choices, she can make up her mind, but she won't be as tough as Cheng Die.
When Cheng Die saw Su Wuming and the others, she was a little surprised, but soon, she smiled and led Su Wuming and the others to the inner courtyard, which has many warehouses, but at this time it has not yet begun to move to the front desk of the store, so it seems very quiet, and only occasionally can smell the cicadas.
After everyone sat down in the shade of the courtyard, Cheng Die looked at Su Wuming and asked, "Lord Su shouldn't come here for no reason, right?" ”
Su Wuming nodded: "Miss Cheng is right, you also know that your eldest brother was poisoned, so we want to know if you met with Cheng Feng yesterday?" ”
Cheng Die was not surprised, after thinking about it, he said with a smile: "Naturally, I have been in contact, my eldest brother has been taking care of business in the store yesterday morning, and I came to take over in the afternoon, and he went to make the tide, the two of us said a few words here, and he went back to the house to change clothes, Lord Su asked me this question, could it be that I suspected that I poisoned my eldest brother?" ”
Cheng Die didn't hide her thoughts at all, which made Su Wuming a little embarrassed, but soon, Su Wuming smiled lightly and said: "That's not it, asking who has had contact with the deceased is just a routine, Miss Cheng just said that Cheng Feng has been here all morning, I want to ask the steward here, is it okay?" ”
Cheng Die nodded, and then called the second shopkeeper of the store.
The second shopkeeper was a man in his fifties, after he saw Su Wuming, he hurriedly asked what was the matter, Su Wuming frowned slightly, and asked, "Cheng Feng was here yesterday morning, what did he eat, who did he see?" ”
The second shopkeeper thought for a while and said: "I haven't seen many people, but the wine is drunk, and Master Su also knows that it is the height of summer, and the weather is hot, and if you don't drink water for a while, you will feel that your throat is dry, and the eldest prince didn't drink less yesterday!" ”
"Who drank with him?"
"There was no one to accompany him, he was alone with a wine and watched the guys carry the grain, watching and drinking."
"Did you put the flask down halfway through?"
The second shopkeeper thought about it, and finally suddenly was shocked, and said: "It seems that the eldest prince put the wine jug on the counter halfway, and he went back to the backyard for convenience, but this time is very short." ”
"Have you ever noticed anyone near the counter during that time?"
The second shopkeeper nodded far away: "No, everyone was busy at that time, and they didn't have time to pay attention to these at all." ”
Su Wuming frowned slightly, and finally found a time that might be poisoned, but no one noticed the wine jug.
