"Later, Mrs. Lu came to me in private a few times, and she told me the same thing."

"What do you say?"

He said briefly, "I refused." ”

"Why refuse?" She said, "Although I haven't met Mrs. Lu, the people in the town say that she is a beautiful woman." There is so much money in the Lu Mansion, you are not tempted? Or do you think Mrs. Lu is too old? ”

"It's not a question of money or not. It's not a question of whether she's old or not. His eyes looked at her steadily, "Rather, I don't like her, so naturally I won't be with her." ”

He had a somewhat burning gaze, obviously saying that she Su Qingyue was the person he liked. Her heart moved, "Third brother, I can't see ......"

"Daughter-in-law, although you are smiling all day long, there are some principles, but they will not change." His eyes were extremely serious, "You are the only woman I want in this life." ”

Her heart was slightly warm, "The Xiao family has been so poor in the past few years, you didn't think about going to find Chen Hongyu?" ”

"Nope. In fact, two years ago, Mrs. Lu sent someone to find me and told me that if I was willing to go to the Lu Mansion, she would pay for my treatment, but I refused. He smiled bitterly, "I always thought I was sick, and you said that I was poisoned, and I realized that the poison in me was caused by Chen Hongyu." One night when I was working as a part-time worker in Lufu, I heard a woman crying and howling in the firewood room, screaming like a ghost, and I couldn't help but sneak closer to see what was going on. A woman was found chained in the firewood room, and she was filthy and sloppy, like a beggar on the street. Mrs. Lu happened to come with the steward, who was carrying a basket with rancid rice in it. The locked woman stuffed her mouth as soon as she saw the food. ”

When Su Qingyue heard this, she figured it out, "The locked woman is Lu Haoyuan's crazy concubine Ruan Qingqing. ”

"Yes." He said expressionlessly, "That night, I overheard the biggest secret of the Lu Mansion. The drowning of Lu Haoyuan and his son was not an accident, it was arranged by Chen Hongyu. was a poisonous hand by the housekeeper, Ruan Qingqing was not crazy, he was locked up by Mrs. Lu, and he has been locked up for several years. The lord of the official mansion, Mrs. Lu spent a lot of money to dredge, and the suspicions on the corpses of Lu Haoyuan and his son were also covered up. Mrs. Lu, who is kind-hearted on the surface, is the most vicious scorpion. She killed her husband and the son of her husband's concubine, but she also won a reputation for being virtuous. Because she has always pretended to be virtuous in front of people. That night, I heard from the people of the Lu Mansion that Ruan Qingqing burned the yard and accidentally burned herself to death. Perhaps, it wasn't an accident. ”

She listened with a blank face.

"I know the truth, but I can't tell," he said. Do you think it's useless? ”

She shook her head, "With the wealth of the Lu Mansion, you are a villager, no one will believe you when you say it, the world only covets the property of the Lu Mansion, and you don't know how you died." ”

He hugged her into his arms, "Since I was fifteen years old, I have been selling goods from village to village, and I have come into contact with too many people, and I know that the wrongs are not two things at all. I can't control the affairs of the world, and I can't avenge the people of the world. The affairs of the Lu Mansion should not be known. ”

She let him hold her, too.

He hugged her delicate body, "I am willing to fight hard for you, that is because you have taken root in my heart." I seem to be easy to speak, perhaps, the blood in my bones is cold. ”
