"This, you should ask her." Qiao subconsciously pointed at Gao Man.

Gao Man didn't expect that he would be involved, even if he was innocent, he looked at Zheng Lingyi in a little panic, Zheng Lingyi's eyes didn't move, he kept staring at Qiao's, and learned the words of General Wu's Fang Cai: "I didn't say anything, my mother-in-law knew that the maid ate the pastries in the sample instead of making them in my yard?" ”

"You!"

"That's it!" Old General Wu said angrily and glanced at Qiao's family, his gaze was very unkind.

Qiao's sleeve was tugged by Cuilong, so he had to shut up stupidly.

"Indeed, it is not his handwriting." Old General Wu raised the paper in his hand and said to Zheng Lingyi.

"If it was the fourth brother's handwriting, how could I be so roundabout." Zheng Lingyi probed the deep meaning in his eyes for a while, and said lightly: "After I told Aunt Tong about this, she remembered the fourth brother's strange situation, and then she affirmed that the fourth brother did it. I didn't think about making a big deal about it, I just planned to let Aunt Tong discuss it with you to see how to discipline the fourth brother. ”

She glanced at Wu Cong, who was beaten to sleep, and said, "I thought that although it was difficult to move by nature, it would be better to add shackles." Considers......

There is no need to say the rest of the words, and Zheng Lingyi is tired of talking.

General Wu was silent for a long time, and after driving everyone out, he asked his henchmen to invite an old doctor who knew him well into the house.

But in the end, he didn't say it explicitly, and Zheng Lingyi didn't ask much, but he just regretted it a little, whether he should wait for Wu Zhi to come back and then expose this matter, maybe Wu Zhi can be more decisive and thoughtful, and Aunt Tong may not be able to deal with things handled by his hands......

Zheng Lingyi couldn't sleep in the past few days, and the whole person's mood was like the days when Aunt Jiang just died, confused and regretful.

On the day Wu was sent out of the examination room, it rained again, and the quiet residence was drowned in the dense water vapor, hazy and damp.

Zheng Lingyi took a carriage to pick him up, and when he left, he gave the mother-in-law guarding the door a charcoal basin to get rid of some moisture.

Pei'er stood under the porch, looking at the sparse and dense rain curtain in a daze.

After Huan'er left, Pei'er didn't feel that the burden on her body was heavy, probably because she had taken on a lot of errands for Huan'er.

Sensing that there was someone behind her, Pei'er turned around and said, "Sister Luzhu." ”

"How many times have I said it, just call it by name, I'm still younger than you." Lu Zhu laughed briefly, he didn't have any intention of laughing.

Pei'er pursed her lips and didn't answer, obviously she still couldn't scream, and the green bead urged her for a long time before she said softly: "Green bead." ”

The green beads responded very crisply, and looked at Pe'er.

I don't know if it's because of nature, or if there is something hidden in my heart, Pei'er always looks a little sad, although she also laughs in front of her masters, but when she stands alone, she always seems to be preoccupied.

"Huan'er her......

"If it weren't for an accident, I probably wouldn't be able to come back. It's so uncertain. ”

Luzhu knew what Pei'er wanted to ask, so she said.

Pei'er nodded, not knowing what she was thinking, and pursed the corners of her mouth again and stopped talking.

Calculating the time, Wu Zhi and Zheng Lingyi should also come back, but there is still no sign of them outside the door.

"I can't tell, I'm going to eat at Yue Shi Lou again." Pei'er was relieved to see that Luzhu was a little worried.

"It shouldn't be today, I've been holding back in the exam room for so many days, and my uncle is in a hurry to come back and take a bath."

In the courtyard, Lu Zhu and Lu Nong shouted Wu Zhu as an uncle, and the others either shouted Brother to be close, or shouted to the young master to show respect.

Luzhu went to the small kitchen again, and the hot water and hot rice were ready.

When he came back, he saw Wu Zhili receiving the umbrella under the corridor and handing it to Lu Nong, and the water droplets slid down the surface of the umbrella and formed a small puddle at Lu Nong's feet.

Zheng Lingyi turned his face, his eyebrows were dyed with an imperceptible gloomy color, and said, "Pei'er, let someone bring hot water, and then send food after two incense sticks." ”

Seeing that Wu punished Zheng Lingyi into the house, Lu Zhu came to Lu Nong's side and said, "It's hard to travel on a rainy day, is it delayed?" ”

Lu Nong shook his head, and the two of them walked to the house together, and said, "I came back early, but I just asked the old general to summon me, and I don't know what I said to the masters, but it was just yesterday." ”

"What else is there to say, who believes that Aunt Tong committed suicide."

Lu Zhu's voice quickly lowered, and when she walked into the inner room, she picked up the dirty clothes that Wu Zhi had thrown away, and said, "Uncle, I have sent someone to bring hot water." ”

Wu Zhi was silent, and then leaned on the soft collapse and closed his eyes to recuperate.

Midori and Luno glanced at each other, and retreated to the door of the inner room to wait.

Zheng Lingyi leaned on his shoulder softly, poked his cheeks, and said, "When you came back just now, didn't you say that you can't live if you do your own evil?" Speaking of such a cold heart and cold blood, it's not uncomfortable in the end. ”

Wu Zhi glanced at Zheng Lingyi, lowered his eyes again, and pretended not to care: "I'm not worth it for Aunt Tong." ”

The two of them are looking forward to having a biological mother who can live and be honored, but others are pushing their biological mother to die.

Wu Cong said that Aunt Tong was killed by herself, and the wound was on the forehead, which is also consistent.

But Aunt Tong's body has black purple bruises on her shoulders and wrists, and she obviously had a fight before she died.

Especially the bruise on the shoulder, the doctor explained very tactfully that this bruise may have been caused by someone pinching the shoulder with all his strength and slamming the person against the wall.

If the doctor hadn't been for General Wu's old acquaintance, he wouldn't have dared to speak out. Even after saying this, in just a few words, many words such as 'probably', 'maybe', 'maybe', and 'unknowable' were used, and although the words were ambiguous, General Wu already knew it in his heart.

"I knew this was the case, I shouldn't have let Aunt Tong deal with this matter in the first place, I told my father-in-law how good it was, or, just put up with it, we avoided it anyway, didn't we?"

Aunt Tong died, and Zheng Lingyi felt sorry and guilty.

Wu Xuan turned to look at her, the water sticking to her, making a slightly slimy sound.

"There must be two if there is one, how to prevent it. Besides, you asked Aunt Tong to say, don't you also want to give the fourth brother a way? Who would have known that he was so extreme, in order to prevent Aunt Tong from exposing the matter, he actually ......

"I think he was also angry and made a mistake."

Zheng Lingyi said, sensing Wu Punishment's inquiring gaze, so he excused himself to get a handkerchief and got up to avoid it.

Wu Zhi held her hand, and Zheng Lingyi had to turn around and look at him.

"The fourth brother is quite talented in business, he," Wu Xuan paused, and for some reason suddenly changed his words: "Dad once wanted to give some of the industry in his hand to the fourth brother to operate, but Aunt Tong refused for fear of swaggering. Dad mentioned it a few times, but Aunt Tong refused a few times, only allowing the fourth brother to study, and not anyone else. I am not saying this to excuse the evil deeds of the fourth brother, but all kinds of causes and effects, which are not foreseeable by us mortals. ”

Zheng Lingyi remembered that for the sake of a good reputation, didn't Aunt Jiang also give up Zheng Shuangshuang?

Although it is all out of the meaning of a boxing and loving son, but in the end it is empty.

She sighed and said, "Compared with yesterday, my father-in-law is much older overnight, and it is embarrassing to watch." ”

I thought that Wu Zhi would not accept this, but I didn't expect him to be silent for a while, and actually said: "Aunt Tong is silent and humble, she doesn't fight or grab, even if she has no love, she has three points of pity, and it is natural to be uncomfortable." Coupled with the worrying nature exposed by the fourth brother, if I were him, I am afraid that I would be white overnight. ”

There was a sound of green beads outside the door, saying that hot water had arrived. Zheng Lingyi let them into the house, put hot water, and then withdrew.

Wu Zhi likes hot water in the bath, Zheng Lingyi is too hot when he stretches out his fingers, and only takes a small scoop and pours water on his shoulder.

"If you were a father-in-law, what would you do with your fourth brother?"

"Remove the name and rush to the countryside."

Zheng Lingyi nodded thoughtfully, and said, "Father-in-law let the fourth brother go to the army, which is more ruthless than letting him be a rural farmer." If you're okay, maybe you can make a way out, but he's powerless, I'm afraid I'm miserable. ”

"What's miserable? If you don't get the shadow of your ancestors, if a man wants to get ahead, one will take the imperial examination, and the other will join the army. He didn't cut off the way of the fourth brother in the end. ”

Wu Zhi said it easily, not because he himself has kung fu, Zheng Lingyi believes that with his heart, even without kung fu, he can make a difference in the army.

Wu Cong walked quietly, and when the sky was about to dawn that day, Zheng Ling vaguely noticed Wu Punishment's departure, and when he woke up, Wu Punishment was already reading a book in the soft collapse.

"How?" Zheng Lingyi rolled up the quilt and got up, she knew that Wu Cong was sent away.

"Incorrigible." Wu Zhi said with a hint of anger, it seems that the two broke up unhappily.

General Wu repeatedly issued a gag order, not allowing anyone to discuss this matter, and even Zhou Niang was transferred by him from the embroidery room to Nanyuan to serve, just to prevent the news from leaking.

I don't know if the feng shui of the ancestral tomb of the Wu family is not good, so my daughter won't mention it first, this son is one by one, there is always something wrong.

In this way, Wu Yongan is still the most ordinary, his benefits are ordinary, and his disadvantages are ordinary.

Although he has favored the concubine recently, he has not lost his due respect for Gao Man, even if he does not sleep in her room at night, he always has to meet Sister Mei at dinner and say a few words to Gao Man.

Gao Man also had some resentment in his heart, but he never showed it on his face, and the two were also amiable when they were together, compared to the appearance when they got along before, they were a little less intimate and a little more hypocritical.

Wu Jian waited at home for the past few days to release the list, at most he went to inspect the Zhuangzi and the shop, and most of the time he was still living in silence.

Gao Man has always been a little afraid of him, and he didn't dare to come to live in silence, but today he invited Zheng Lingyi to Lingxi Courtyard to speak.

Zheng Lingyi felt a little strange when he entered the door, Xianghan Xiangyang had a smile on his face when he served tea, his steps were excited, and he seemed to be able to fly.

Zheng Lingyi retracted her gaze, and saw that Gao Man also curled the corners of his mouth, picked up a crystal glass cup and took a small sip, the soup in the cup was slightly red, not the tip of Huang Feng's hair that she preferred, it should be rose tea.

"Second sister-in-law, are you mixing honey in this flower tea? How do you drink more and more delicious? Zheng Lingyi said, seeing her Xiangyang's uncontrollable smile, her eyes rolled, and she couldn't help laughing: "It's not you......
