After a long time, Tong calmed down, but his eyes were red and swollen, and the fat powder on his face was also washed away by tears.

Lin Ruan asked people to fetch water, personally served Tong Shi to wash his face, and asked people to bring some tea.

Tong's voice was a little hoarse and trembling, and he took Lin Ruan's hand and didn't let go: "Child, how have you spent all these years outside?" How could you be exiled back then, was it really like what the Gu family said, smuggled out of the house by evil slaves? ”

Lin Ruan pursed his lips: "Uncle, this matter is full of strangeness, and the Gu family seems to be hiding many things. One of the most important is probably the real cause of my mother's death. ”

Tong's eyes suddenly widened, and he stood up from the chair excitedly: "Ah Ruan, you mean, there is another hidden reason for your mother's death?" ”

Lin Ruan nodded solemnly: "I'm so suspicious. The words that the Gu family said to the outside world were not half credible. Things back then were full of suspicions, and I definitely didn't believe that the Gu family was simply afraid that the Shen family wouldn't be able to stand the blow, so they found an imposter to replace me. ”

After thinking about it, Lin Ruan still decided to tell the story of Gu Fu's purchase of the killer.

Tong Shi was so angry that she trembled, she was a person who had gone through strong winds and waves, Lin Ruan said that the Gu family bought murder, and she immediately thought of many things.

If Lin Ruan was really just stolen by a wicked slave back then, then why did he find his daughter but kill her?

This is done for one purpose, to cover up some important facts. So what fact would be so important? Needless to say, it must be a major event related to the life and death of the Gu family.

Lin Ruan was just a five-year-old doll back then, what could be worth making the Gu family so nervous? If you think about it a little, you can guess that it must be related to Shen Mengjun's death!

Nine times out of ten, Shen Mengjun died unexpectedly, and Lin Ruan probably witnessed what happened, so the Gu family wanted to kill her. Something must have happened back then, so Lin Ruan escaped by mistake and went to the people.

The Gu family thought that Lin Ruan was dead, and found an imposter to deceive them into the Shen family, so as to cover up the truth and obtain benefits from the Shen family. Now that Lin Ruan suddenly appeared, the Gu family was afraid that the truth would be exposed, so they wanted to kill the killer.

The assassination failed, and the Gu family came up with the trick of recognizing relatives.

It's just that they didn't expect that Lin Ruan had already guessed their plan in advance and became suspicious of them.

Tong gritted his teeth and gurgled, pulled Lin Ruan and said, "Let's go, accompany my aunt to Shuntian Mansion, I want to sue the Gu family!" ”

Lin Ruan patted her hand and said comfortingly: "Aunt is angry, although these doubts about this matter can be successfully reasoned, we can't come up with evidence. When I was young, I couldn't remember many things, and even my mother's appearance was only a few sporadic memories. I can't remember the exact cause of my mother's death. ”

"And since the Gu family wants to kill their mother, the method they use can naturally make it easy for people to find out. If there is no evidence, even if you go to the official mansion, you can't take the Gu mansion. So I want to go back to the house and find out for myself the cause of my mother's death. and the mystery behind the Gu family. ”

Tong's expression was dazed: "You want to review home?" ”

Lin Ruan nodded: "Yes, only by returning to the Gu family can we find out the true cause of my mother's death." And the identity of the killer found by the Gu family is very special, and I suspect that they have done a lot of rebellious things behind their backs. Maybe my mother was killed by the Gu family because she knew some secrets. ”

Tong clenched his fists tightly: "Back then, your mother was so dazed by that Gu Lian that she couldn't listen to anyone's words, and she was bent on marrying him." Your grandmother took pity on her for being born weak and sickly, and could not bear to let her be unsympathetic to the marriage, so she persuaded your grandfather to agree to the marriage. I didn't expect to let her end up like this, and it also caused you to suffer for so many years! What a Gu family, if the facts are really as we guessed, I Dingguo Mansion will not want this full of glory, but also slaughter them with my own hands, and seek justice for your mother and you! ”

Lin Ruan was moved by the last sentence and her nose was sour, this is the real relative, even if it costs her, she has to seek justice for her.

"Aunt rest assured, this justice does not need to take the glory of the Dingguo Mansion. They don't deserve it at all! ”

Tong looked at Lin Ruan's firm and confident eyes, and couldn't help but smile with relief: "You are worthy of being the descendant of our Shen family!" ”

That fake couldn't even compare to a single hair of her niece.

Such a disgusting thing, if it weren't for the sake of her sister-in-law who died early, she really wouldn't have seen it at a glance.

She has a deep relationship with Shen Mengjun, Shen Mengjun is a very gentle and kind person, because she is congenitally weak and rarely comes into contact with outsiders, so she has a simple temperament.

Although her mother-in-law is a good person, her mother-in-law is always a mother-in-law, and when she first married into the Shen family, her life was not very easy. Thanks to Shen Mengjun on the side to help speak and cooperate with her to manage the affairs of the house, she was able to quickly gain a firm foothold in the Shen family.

Later, after she gave birth to a child, Shen Mengjun also helped her manage the child for a few years until she got married. said that she and Shen Mengjun were sisters-in-law, but it was better to say that they were sisters.

When she knew that Shen Mengjun died suddenly, the Shen family was guarding the border pass and could not leave without permission, so she accompanied Mrs. Shen all the way back from the border pass. It wasn't until she saw Shen Mengjun's tomb with her own eyes that she had to accept the fact that Shen Mengjun was dead.

It was precisely because of her deep friendship with Shen Mengjun that she tolerated that fake so much, and often cleaned up the mess for her. It's just that no matter how deep the friendship is, it can't withstand the wear and tear of that fake.

The Tong family didn't have a good impression of her, and some just maintained and treated her sister-in-law's only bloodline.

Later, Gu Ruan often bullied her niece Tong Miaoxin and pushed her into the lake, and Tong's little care for Gu Ruan was gone. But I didn't think about taking revenge on her, just waiting for her to cause a big disaster and be cleaned up.

Thinking of the efforts of himself and the entire Dingguo Mansion over the years, the Tong family was so angry: "I don't know where they found such a thing, it has been so bad that even our Shen family's reputation is not good over the years." ”

Lin Ruan's eyes narrowed: "Uncle, don't you think that Gu Ruan looks quite similar to Gu Lian?" ”

Tong's eyes were cold: "Ah Ruan, what do you mean?" ”

Of course she knew that the fake looked very similar to Gu Lian, otherwise she wouldn't have been kept in the dark for so many years.

Now that the truth is revealed, the identity of that fake is a bit interesting. How could a little girl who was randomly found from outside be so similar to Gu Lian?

Lin Ruan said the truth lightly: "Gu Ruan is the biological daughter of Gu Lian and Xiao, her real name is Gu Xin'er, she should be about the same age as me, and she may even be a little older." While Gu Lian was marrying my mother, he was raising the Xiao family outside. After my mother died, I was exiled, and they made her Gu Ruan, and married Xiao two years later. Outsiders say that the Xiao family is virtuous and treats Gu Ruan as their own daughter, but they don't know that it is her own birth. ”
