Chapter 379: Three Cao's Case

379

In was an old woman with a green cloth bun, with her back bent and her head hanging very low, and the green cloth covered most of her face, so she couldn't see her clearly.

Mrs. Zhu smiled: "Why didn't this girl bring pipa strings?" Is it just one mouth? ”

"So she is more unusual than others," Shao Tong stepped forward and said, "Grandmother, listen to it." ”

When the old woman entered the house, she knelt on the ground and said, "Greetings to all masters." ”

Her voice was hoarse and old, very unpleasant, and no one had ever spoken like this.

"The set of books that the old woman is going to talk about today is not made up, but it is true. It's been 30 years since I talked about this, and there is a very rich family in this capital, and whoever has the surname or name will not say it first. The lord of the family has three sons, the first two sons are concubines, and the third son is from the main room, the youngest.

Although this little boy is only six or seven years old, he is smart and handsome, and the old lady of this family loves him very much. The only drawback is that this child is born with some weakness and is often willing to get sick.

One winter, the child caught a chill and lingered for months. The wife of the family loved her son, so she burned incense and worshiped the Buddha day and night, and made a vow to ask the gods and Buddhas to bless her son. ”

When the old woman said this, Mrs. Zhu couldn't help but think of her back then, and her eyes were a little wet.

"A doctor gave a recipe for food supplements, saying that it is excellent to give the young master a bowl every day, which will improve qi and strengthen the body for a long time." The old woman continued: "The eldest aunt of this family is the most attentive on weekdays, and she told her that she was not at ease when she handed over this matter to others, so she took over the matter herself, and carefully cooked soup for the young master every day. But after a few months, the little young master didn't see the slightest improvement, so he still gave up.

The old man and the lady almost didn't hurt to death, especially the lady, who was too sad and sick. ”

At this point in the story, the hearts of several people can't help but change, one is Zhang's family, one is Mrs. Zhu, and the other is Mingxin.

Mingxin's hand was clenched tightly, and there was a silver ticket in it that had been soaked with sweat.

Just when she followed Zhang to the front yard, she found that she had put a note in her pocket, and there was a silver ticket of 3,000 taels wrapped in it.

The boss said that as long as she testified to the storyteller and told the truth, the silver ticket was hers, and she would not be embarrassed.

Mingxin is still strange, where is there a storyteller. But as soon as she arrived in the middle hall, she understood that listening to the tone of the Shao family, this matter was obviously led by them, so she was even more afraid.

She can't afford to mess with the Shao family, let alone her, even the Zhang family's Wei Zongyong can't do it either.

Zhang naturally sensed that something was wrong, but she couldn't have a seizure, so she could only pretend that nothing happened.

Mrs. Zhu was aroused by sadness, and her heart was miserable.

The woman cleared her throat and continued: "It's just that others don't know that the little young master was actually killed. It was none other than the eldest aunt over there who harmed him. She added a taste of poison to the soup she made every day, and one or two meals were not fatal, but after a long time, the poison accumulated deeply, and the little young master was weak and naturally couldn't withstand it, so he died. ”

"You, the story you are talking about......" Mrs. Zhu couldn't sit still when she heard that the little young master was killed by someone, and asked: "You first said that this is not made up, but it is true, then you will tell me which family happened?" ”

"I think she's clearly talking nonsense!" Zhang said in a deep voice.

"Old lady, second lady," said the woman, with her face raised, "I am talking about the affairs of the Zhiyong Mansion." ”

"Mother of the country?!" Several people in the room were startled, this person was none other than Bao's mother, because she was much thinner than before, and her voice was hoarse, so she couldn't recognize it, let alone -----

"Aren't you already dead?!" Mingxin asked tremblingly.

"I did die once," Mother Guo said with a smile, "It's just that Lord Yama didn't accept me, saying that I still had something to do, and sent me back." ”

"You mean I hurt Young Master Zong Feng?" Zhang was not annoyed, and asked Guo's mother in a calm tone: "What happened thirty years ago, if there is no real evidence, it is a frame-up." ”

"Second wife, if it weren't for the fact that I knew about this matter, you wouldn't have murdered me and my wife, but instead accused us of killing me and my wife." Mother Guo did not back down at all.

"Isn't my sister-in-law sick?" Wei Aluan asked, "Mother Guo, don't talk nonsense. ”

"I'm here," Wei Aluan just finished speaking, and Bao Shi walked in from outside, also dressed in coarse cloth, with a haggard face: "It's been more than a month since I escaped from the house, and it's still thanks to Brother Nan that they take care of me." ”

When Mrs. Zhu saw this scene, she only felt that her heart was numb, her voice trembled, and Wei Yining hurriedly stepped forward to pat her on the back.

"What the hell is going on? I have to make it clear today! Mrs. Zhu clutched her chest and said, "Talent, do you know what is right and which is wrong?" ”

Shao Tianzi got up and said: "This matter was told to me by the Nan'er brothers, I asked her about this country's mother, and she told me so, as for the truth and falsehood, I didn't verify it clearly, so I wanted to make it clear in front of everyone." Those who are clear are self-purifying, and they have all made it clear, and they will naturally see it when the time comes. ”

Bao said solemnly: "We didn't know about this matter originally, but because my mother once overheard Mingxin say that she leaked her mouth, she went back to tell me." I didn't believe it, but then the second wife was poisoned, and without any evidence, I decided that it was me and my mother. forced my mother to take poison, and put me under house arrest, trying to fend for myself. ”

"Nonsense!" Zhang Shi stopped and said: "It's clear that you are discussing to kill me in the past, and your daughter wants to kill her pregnant aunt, otherwise how can I do it to you?" Don't I think this house is chaotic enough? ”

"What we say is one-sided, and it is difficult to be trusted, so it is better to ask Mingxin to talk about it." Bao was also very calm at this time: "She has followed the second wife for so many years, and she can be called the number one confidant, and we only know about this matter recently, unlike the details she knows." ”

"Mingxin, you make things clear and don't hide anything." Shao Tianzi said to Mingxin.

He has lived in the temple for a long time, and he has official authority, and when he shouted at this time, Mingxin felt frightened.

It was she who was loyal to the Zhang family and wanted to deny it.

First, the Shao family and others may not believe it, and second, they will definitely not give her the antidote, and they will take their lives in vain.

In addition, the notes she received were written in ink and in less than half an hour, and only a blank piece of paper remained.

So even if she wanted to help Zhang's confession, she couldn't come up with any strong evidence.

But even so, it is indeed difficult for her to simply and neatly regurgitate.

At the moment when she hesitated, Shao Tong said coldly: "Master Mingxin, you have to think about it before you say it, otherwise if you can't say it clearly, this thing may be done by you." ”
