Chapter 204: Old Incidents (4)
"You speak very well in Beijing, and you have lived in the capital for a long time?"
"I'm just better at learning accents." Qi Ke's sentence changed a few tones, starting from the Beijing dialect and continuing to the Donglin dialect and the women of Siliu Village like to bring modal words.
"We don't go around in circles, have you ever lived in Qi Hongyi's house?"
"Yes, I know Qi Hongyi and his family." Qi Ke's voice subconsciously lowered, and by this time she could roughly guess what the personal question Bai Qing wanted to ask was, it was not a topic suitable for talking about in a joking tone.
"So, do you know his eldest daughter Qi Ke?"
"Acquaintance."
“…… Is she okay? ”
These few words really almost suffocated Bai Qing, his impression of Qi Ke was still stuck in the initial engagement of the two families, at that time Qi Ke was still an undeveloped little girl in his eyes, and he had been on the battlefield several times, and he never thought that the fate of the two families would end in a few years, although the original intention was to avoid dragging down the woman, but it was a pity for him personally.
"Hmm......" Qi Ke glanced at Bai Qing and felt that he was a little squirming, but he could understand his mood, "Can I ask you a question first?" ”
"You ask."
"When the two of you canceled the marriage contract, did your family give anything? Money or in kind? Or is it the end of taking back the berollment? ”
"It was my family who first mentioned the cancellation of the marriage contract, and in order to compensate for the loss of reputation caused to Qi Ke, I gave a Zhuangzi and said that it would fall into her name."
"Do you still have connections in the capital? The kind of errands are not meant to help you speak in the court. ”
"Yes, the imperial court did not take back the general's mansion, leaving the old servants to take care of the house, and they can do errands."
"Then get back the Zhuangzi who was sent out as soon as possible."
"Why?"
Bai Qing's question, it was Qi Ke's turn to hesitate a little, licking his somewhat dry lips, not knowing whether to tell the truth.
"Why?" Bai Qing calmly asked again, not giving Qi Ke too much time to hesitate and think.
"Qi Ke is dead." Qi Ke gritted his teeth, but he still told the truth in the end.
“…… W-What?! Bai Qing didn't expect this answer, his face was shocked, he imagined that Qi Ke might go to the Zhuangzi given to her to recuperate for a few years and wait to marry again, he never thought that people would die.
"Qi Ke is dead." Anyway, he had already said it, so Qi Ke didn't care so much, and repeated it calmly.
"How did you die? Because of what? Because of the divorce? ”
"It's not." Qi Ke waved his hand vigorously, his movements were slightly strong, but this small action made the excited Bai Qing hold back his emotions, "Her death is doomed, either she will die if you cancel the marriage contract or die in fulfilling the marriage contract." ”
"Why?"
"Because you have been deceived."
Bai Qing's eyebrows wrinkled deeply, "How much do you know?" Tell me everything you know. ”
"Let's put it this way, I witnessed the whole process of Qi Ke's killing."
"Killed?! By whom?! ”
"It should be the grandparents who ordered it, and the father approved it, and told his wife Qiu, and Qiu did it, and sent five family members to accompany Qi Ke to hold down Qi Ke's hands, feet, and neck and drown in the bucket."
“……!” Bai Qing stood up in disbelief, "You saw it with your own eyes?" ”
"I'll lie to you a word, the sky is thundering."
Not only did she see it with her own eyes, but she also felt it with her own eyes, it hurt so much when the water choked into her lungs, her body was sore, and her body was extremely weak, Qi Ke remembered this process and made her want to beat the Qi family again.
