Chapter 45: The Real Murderer
It turned out that it was really as Beilin said, in fact, it was this Wang Bin who accompanied the Xiuhong girl to Yancheng.
Wang Bin said that originally he just wanted Xiuhong to come back to recognize his relatives, take some money from the Zhao family, and go back to the countryside to live in peace.
But I didn't expect that Zhao Youfu was a ruthless person, and he didn't recognize this sister at all, and he didn't even want to see him.
Xiuhong has a thin face, and she doesn't want to stay here with a dead face.
However, the entanglement in Yancheng was almost spent, and Wang Bin felt that since he came, he couldn't go back empty-handed, so he asked Xiuhong to wait with him at the gate of Zhao's mansion.
That day, when Xiuhong was seen by Zhao Youfu, Wang Bin happened to go to buy food for Xiuhong, and after coming back, he heard from the people of Zhao's mansion that Xiuhong was very happy to be invited in by Zhao Youfu, and wanted to follow into the mansion, but Zhao Youfu asked the housekeeper not to allow idle people to enter Zhao's mansion.
Even if Xiuhong said that Wang Bin was his father-in-law, Zhao Youfu refused.
Just let the servant take a tael of silver, and then send Wang Bin away.
Seeing this scene, Xiuhong was even more reluctant to stay in the Zhao Mansion, but Wang Bin was greedy for the Zhao family's money, thinking that since Zhao Youfu had taken Xiuhong to the mansion, he had recognized Xiuhong.
As long as Xiuhong found a suitable opportunity and asked for money, their trip was not in vain.
"Do you know, Zhao Youfu has taken a fancy to Miss Xiuhong?" I wrinkled my eyebrows and looked at Wang Bin.
Wang Bin was silent for a long time and didn't speak, but from his expression, I already understood everything.
What Ming Beilin said is not wrong, compared to Aunt Sun and the scholar, this Wang Bin is the most hateful, he is the most trusted person of Miss Xiuhong, but he personally pushed Miss Xiuhong into the abyss.
"But I never thought that they would kill Xiuhong! I asked Xiuhong to come to Zhao's house to get the money, but I didn't want Xiuhong to suffer with me, I was for her good and for her sake. At this time, Wang Bin actually dared to say that it was for the good of the red girl.
"Have you ever asked what she wants?" I looked at Wang Bin and asked.
Wang Bin was stunned for a moment, revealing a wry smile: "Who doesn't want to live a good life?" It's just that the world is difficult, if you want to live a good life, how can it be so easy? ”
"If she really wants to live a good life, why should she marry you?" I think Miss Xiuhong is definitely not the kind of woman who is greedy for pleasure, what she wants is much simpler than Wang Bin thought.
"It's not that she wants to live a good life, but you want to live a good life, and, in order to live that kind of life, you don't hesitate to use her, in fact, you are the real murderer of Xiuhong." I looked at Wang Bin, this point, presumably he still dare not admit it.
"I, I, I remember? Have I seen you? On the night after Miss Xiuhong's death, you came to the mansion to make trouble, saying that you should either give you a hundred taels of silver, or return Miss Xiuhong to you? Aunt Sun squinted her cloudy eyes and stared at Wang Bin for a long time before she recognized him.
It turned out that after Wang Bin and Xiuhong completely lost contact, they went to Zhao Mansion to make trouble, but where was Zhao Youfu that he could control, so he didn't get any benefits.
Today, he said that he wanted to avenge Xiuhong, but I am afraid that he has been thinking about it for more than nine months, but he has not gotten what he wants, and finally there is nothing he can do, so in the name of avenging Xiuhong's girl, "do the right thing for heaven".
"Do you know that the flesh and blood in her belly are not Zhao Youfu's, but yours." Beilin asked leisurely.
"What?" Wang Bin raised his eyes in astonishment and looked at Beilin.
"That Zhao Youfu's face, fate has no children, you and the deceased woman, but you have an heir." This sentence of Ming Beilin should have pierced Wang Bin's heart like a knife.
Aunt Sun also nodded slightly: "That's right, our Lord Zhao and Mrs. Zhao have been married for many years and have no children, for the sake of face, they all say that Mrs. can't give birth, in fact, many old slaves in the house know that Master Zhao was too wild when he was young, and he lost his body, so he has been weak, drinking Chinese medicine to warm up, but it has no effect." ”
"No? Impossible, impossible. When Wang Bin heard this, he was completely defeated, shaking his head, unable to accept this fact at all.
