Chapter Seventy-Four: Reversal of the Situation
It is difficult for a person who chatters all day long to be taken seriously, even if what he says is important, because people don't know if it is another nag from him; On the contrary, a person who rarely expresses his opinion opens his mouth, and even the most meaningless nonsense, people feel that he expresses his attitude, and that scarcity is expensive, and the situation in front of him is probably like this. //。 qВ5、C0М\
Everyone in the hall eased the little embarrassment that had just appeared, and together with Helian Rong, they stared at Wei Tingyu motionlessly. After a brief moment of amazement, the old lady asked in a deep voice, "Do you know the truth?" ”
"I don't know, but there is one thing that has to be said, whether it is the truth or not is judged by everyone."
Wei Tingyu's voice and expression were always very calm, but Wu was a little anxious, not at all relieved, "What do you want to say?" Maybe it was out of a woman's intuition, or maybe it was the perception of things, Wu always felt panicked, and his voice was a little higher.
"It's useless for you to be loud now, since I stand up, I will say everything I know." Wei Tingyu glanced at the Wu family expressionlessly, "A few days ago, Shuqin found me and said that she would wait for an opportunity to transfer Uncle Zhong and the subordinates of the ancestral hall, and asked me to sneak into the ancestral hall and find something for her. ”
A short sentence was enough to make everyone stunned, and then in an uproar, Wei Tingyu didn't wait for everyone to ask, and continued, "I don't know what she's looking for, and maybe even she herself doesn't know what she's looking for, but I believe everyone knows it." But the woman does not enter the ancestral hall, I refused her request, but there is a handle in her hands and I am uneasy, so I followed Shuqin, at that time I didn't know what I wanted to do, but let me overhear Shuqin and Bilan's words, even if I don't have the opportunity to get that kind of thing, I won't let others get it, rather than fighting, it's better to burn the jade! ”
The first half of Wei Tingyu's sentence has shocked everyone beyond measure, and the second half of the sentence makes Wu Shi feel that his eyes are suddenly dark, what's going on? The first half of what Wei Tingyu said was right. Where did the second half come from? No, no, no, the key is that she went to find Wei Tingyu that day, and Wei Tingyu clearly agreed to her request very happily, she was responsible for transferring Uncle Zhong and her subordinates, and Wei Tingyu was responsible for sneaking into the ancestral hall to find the baby.
Wei Tingyu is a member of the Wei family, and appearing near the ancestral hall will not arouse suspicion. The most important thing is to avoid the trouble of outsiders intervening, no one is reliable, but Wei Tingyu must be attached to the Wei family, she needs a place to stay, and it is precisely this that the Wu family is biting. Another important reason is that Wei Tingyu is not publicized, knowing the fact that there is a treasure in the family, and it is even possible to know what this treasure is! In the final analysis, Wei Tingyu is still the young lady of the Wei family, and she is the only daughter of the old man. When the old man was alive, he may not have revealed anything to her, but if so. Finding something is more effective with less.
However, although Wu's abacus played well, he never expected Wei Tingyu to have such a move. After pretending to agree, he burned down the ancestral hall and took a bite, if he created some so-called "evidence", he really couldn't wash it off for the rest of his life.
What to do? Wu's mind turned sharply, and he made a decision in just a moment, and suddenly stood up, "Auntie, I did go to look for you, but I only asked about Bi Tao's cause of death. Then chatted for a few words, and when it came to Shaoyun's renovation of the ancestral hall, he couldn't help but think of the legendary treasures, and made a few jokes that he wanted to find them, why did his aunt take it seriously? Then when I left, I was dissatisfied with Bi Lan not waiting outside the house and reprimanded all the way, when did I say anything about the burning of jade? Besides, I don't know if that thing is in the ancestral hall or not, and it is still possible to send someone to find it, if it is said to be burned...... Is it reckless? Auntie, this is a big matter, you must think about it. Don't spew blood! ”
Wu's quick reaction was undoubtedly unexpected by Wei Tingyu, but she was not in a hurry, "I swear to heaven that everything I say is true, otherwise the sky will thunder and thunder, and I will not die well." ”
"You ......"
This move is simply invincible. Wu was dumbfounded. It seems that he can't believe that Wei Tingyu made such a vicious oath. Wei Tingyu said: "I have already said it. What is said is not necessarily the truth. Just say what I know. For everyone to judge. You interrupted me in the middle of my sentence. But you want to continue to threaten me? ”
Wei Tingyu said for a long time. Yan finally asked. "Tingyu. What did Shuqin use to threaten you? ”
"It's a peach to die." Wei Tingyu looked self-satisfied. But the faces of the people were bewildered.
Yan said again: "Bi Tao? ”
Wei Tingyu said slowly: "Bi Tao Di I do have to bear some responsibility. On that day, I was now a peach with a mysterious whereabouts. I couldn't help but ask a few more questions curiously. Bi Tao has always had no one in his eyes. Don't take me seriously at all. Then...... It is just as the death day of Yunshan is approaching. I was upset and irritable. I quarreled with her for a few words. She accidentally fell into the water during the pulling. I thought the pool wasn't deep. Where she was, close to the shore. She'll be up soon. He left without heeding. As everyone knows, a few days later, the news of Bi Tao's death came. I realized that I had a bad idea. It hurt Bi Tao to die in vain. ”
"Auntie! It's clearly your ......."
"Shuqin!" Yan Shi lightly stopped Wu, "Listen to your aunt." ”
Wu's face was extremely poor, and the fingertips on the armrests of the seat turned white, and Wei Tingyu looked at her and spoke slowly.
"If a girl is dead, even if I stand up and admit it, it's nothing, but at that time, Niang Diyu Ruyi was stolen, and they were all suspecting what Bi Tao did, if I stood up at this time and said that Bi Tao died, I would find Ruyi, if I couldn't find it, I would have countless mouths, and I couldn't tell it."
Yan nodded slightly, "Later, Shuqin's death was related to you?" ”
She didn't have any conclusive evidence, but when I was pulling, I had a string of beads and chains falling on the edge of the pool, and she took it to question me, and I saw that she was suspicious, and if she didn't admit it and let her continue to investigate, it would inevitably be more evidence, so she confessed, and didn't want her to immediately blame my head for the theft of Ruyi, saying that I stole Ruyi, and was killed by Bi Tao, not to mention that the previous antiques were exchanged was also related to me. I was only in a hurry to put an end to the matter, so I didn't choose to say anything, but when she said that Cuihe had come forward to testify against the witch curse at my instigation, I realized that she had other plans. Although I rejected her at that time, I was afraid that she would really plant these things on my head, so I quietly followed and heard those words. Wei Tingyu said this in one breath and breathed a sigh of relief, "I know that I have humiliated the Wei family, so I never dare to ask about family affairs on weekdays. I didn't mention it, but I couldn't sit idly by and watch the destruction of the ancestral hall. Everyone, what I said is only what I heard, if there is no evidence, but I don't think that Shaoyang's grudge outside will lead to the burning of the ancestral hall, Shaoyun is responsible for repairing the ancestral hall. There will be no such action, and the removal of the ancestral tablet in advance proves that the arsonist is not a person in the house, and he is afraid of retribution! ”
Wei Tingyu's words were undoubtedly extremely lethal, Wu's face turned pale, trying to calm himself down, "Auntie, I don't know why you said that, I did go to you that day." I also mentioned the ancestral hall, but I only mentioned it, and you said it so badly? Or did someone tell you to do it? Who is that person? Who is trying to force me to death? ”
"Sister-in-law." Wei Shuilian finally had another interesting thing. "My aunt's words have been very clear, she just said the facts she heard, and she didn't say that it must be you who burned down the ancestral hall, but...... It's really unexpected, wasn't that thing in our house destroyed by my father? Why does my sister-in-law still want to find it? If you want to find it, why don't you say it openly and honestly, if the thing is really still there, it can be regarded as recovering a treasure for the Weijia, how can it be quiet? What's the idea? ”
Wu's arms trembled slightly, and the people on the side hurriedly supported her. "Sook Qin ......"
Wu broke away from Wei Shaoxuan's hand and knelt down at the old lady, "Grandma, granddaughter-in-law has been wronged, Shaoxuan has been responsible for taking care of the ancestral hall for many years, don't I know what is inside?" Besides, the ancestral hall is a place to worship ancestors, so if you burn the ancestral hall, you won't be afraid of retribution? What's in it with me! ”
"Perhaps," Yan said leisurely, "In terms ......of the eldest and youngest, Shaoxuan is the eldest son and grandson." But you are excluded from the inheritance of the Wei clan, you ...... in your heart Isn't there the slightest dissatisfaction? ”
Wu ignored Yan's and only said to the old lady: "Grandma, Shuqin is the daughter-in-law of the Wei family, and she will continue to live in the Wei family in the future, if it is really as my aunt said, she does not agree with me to send others to sneak into the ancestral hall, isn't it the same?" How could they burn down the ancestral hall so ignorantly! ”
Wei Shaoxuan also knelt down, "Yes, grandma, Shuqin won't do this." She...... Not going to do that! ”
Wei Shaoxuan thought that he wanted to say a few more good words for the Wu family. But there is only one sentence that makes the old lady shake her head again and again.
"...... first," the old lady seemed to be in a hurry. In an instant, he got a lot old, and "scattered first......
"Mother," Wei Tingyu lowered her eyes, "I think about it carefully in the past few days, when I saw Bi Tao that day, I seemed to see her holding a package, and she fell into the pool together when she fell into the water. ”
Yan's eyes couldn't help but light up when he heard this, "But Shuqin asked people to search the lotus pond ......"
Wu stiffened his back when Wei Tingyu spoke, turned his head and glared at her angrily, his eyes were bloodshot, Wei Tingyu ...... Do you really want her to live?
"She didn't find it." Wei Tingyu spoke again, but Yan and Wu were stunned, "At that time, the location where Bi Tao fell into the water was close to the shore, and the searchers may only look for it in the pool, I will take someone to take a look, and search from the place where Bi Tao fell into the water, maybe there will be a scene." ”
Wu was completely unsure of what Wei Tingyu wanted to do, but Wei Tingyu was still the same, expressionless.
The old lady has suffered too many blows recently, and suddenly she couldn't believe it when she got a good news, so she hurriedly asked Wei Tingyu to take someone to find it, and Wei Tingyu also lived up to expectations, and she was simply able to catch it, and found a small cloth bag from the pool, according to the family's report, the cloth bag was hung on a protrusion in the wall of the pool, and she only cared about touching the bottom of the pool during the search, so she did not appear.
The cloth bag was opened, and two handles, one large and one small, were green and shiny, showing them in front of everyone without the slightest defect.
The old lady caressed Ruyi, cherished it very much, and finally held Ruyi and sobbed lowly, everyone was moved, Hu Shi and Wei Dongxue couldn't help but follow the red eyes.
"It's been tossing for most of the night, let's go rest first." The old lady half-closed her eyes and slowly waved her hand, allowing Hu Shi to get up slowly.
Wei Shuilian hurriedly said: "Grandma, the matter of the ancestral hall has not been explained yet......
"If there is anything to talk about tomorrow, let's disperse first." After speaking, the old lady did not stay any longer, ignoring Wu's pleading, nor ignoring Wei Shuilian's dissatisfaction, and left the hall.
Yan Shi followed and got up, glanced at Wu with two points of sympathy in his eyes, lifted the corners of his mouth, and said to Wei Shuilian: "Water Lotus, smart people abound, it's better not to be too smart." ”
Yan's words can be heard by anyone, Wei Shuilian aimed in the direction of Wei Tingyu, but now I don't know when Wei Tingyu is no longer in place, turned back to Yan and nodded, "Understood, mother." ”
The Yang family, who has always been chattering, said no today, as if they understood that this matter was serious and should not be disturbed, and with the Yan family and the others leaving, there were Helian Rong, Wei Shaoyun, Wei Shaoyang, Wei Dongxue and Yan Yan left in the hall, as well as Wei Shaoxuan and Wu who had been kneeling.
Wei Shaoxuan tugged at Wu's clothes, "Shuqin, I believe in you." ”
"What do you believe is useful?" Wu Shi staggered to his feet, and hurriedly got up to support her, "I'm really useless, but I believe in you." ”
Wu Shi looked at Wei Shaoxuan, her firm and pure eyes were like the night, and the undisguised trust made her can't help but have pantothenic acid in her throat, and Wei Shaoxuan took her hand, "Let's go back, and tell grandma tomorrow, grandma will definitely believe you." ”
Wu closed his eyes slightly, nodded, and opened his eyes again, his face already a little bloody.
In fact, what Wu cares about is not whether the old lady believes her or not, Wei Tingyu has no evidence, and she can't be convicted, and the old lady will not only believe Wei Tingyu's words, otherwise she has been disposed of just now, what Wu cares about is her future life in Weifu and her position as the head of the house.
Burning the ancestral hall, she couldn't have imagined that Wei Tingyu would dare to do such a unique thing, but in fact, she not only did it, but also did it unhurriedly, and she was safe. Looking back, I'm afraid it wasn't for Wei Tingyu who had this idea the moment she agreed to sneak into the ancestral hall.
It's ridiculous that she thought she had held Wei Tingyu's weakness and was full of confidence. She lost too badly this time, defeated in blind self-confidence, defeated in despising others, defeated in her focused all her eyes on Yan, and couldn't see who should be touched and who couldn't.
And Wei Tingyu also has a good grasp of the scale of the matter, she doesn't need any "evidence", as long as she is vague in this matter, it is enough to make everyone suspicious, and then erase the Wu family's many years of achievements in Weifu. It's just that Wu didn't understand why Wei Tingyu didn't take advantage of the victory to pursue in the end? As long as Wei Tingyu insisted that Bi Tao was carrying Ruyi that day, and Ruyi could not be found, the suspicion of burning the ancestral hall and the crime of embezzling Ruyi was enough to make her a rat crossing the street in Weifu.
Do you have other plans? Did Wei Tingyu just fight back, or did she form an alliance with others? If you are pulled off the horse, who will benefit? Yan's? Since the time he received the key to the house from Yan's hands, Yan has never given up trying to regain it. Wu still remembered the look on Yan's face when the master announced the matter, disdainful and resentful, and she even let out a word, saying that she was usually gentle and harmless, but at the end she bit her back. For these Wu family just laughed, she always knew what to do when and when, otherwise she would not have sat on the position of the grandmother of the Wei family from a little girl, and she would not let the old man change his mind before his death and hand over the position of the head of the Wei Mansion to her.
Or maybe it's Helian Rong? This second young grandmother of the Weijia family has been embarrassed by everyone since the first day she entered the door, but she is like she has no longevity, she resisted for a while, and after resisting for a few rounds, she retracted her claws, and went her own way all day long, as if she had nothing to do with the Wei family, is she hibernating? Waiting for the perfect moment? Just like you were back then? No, not quite like that.
Taking a deep breath, Wu Shi took out the hand that was held by Wei Shaoxuan, straightened his back and walked out of the hall under the gaze of Wei Shaoyang and others, forget it, let's deal with it tomorrow first, maybe after tomorrow...... It was not her turn to think about these things.
