Chapter 54: All Hidden Hearts

Now that the "spider silk" of the Sun family has been detected, Chun Hui has no need to go to the inner kitchen to learn skills, and she proposed to thank the master for the success, so she personally made some pastries that she had just learned, so that everyone in the master family could taste it, and the share given to the eldest wife Zhou was sent by Chun Gui himself.

All the suspicions are focused on the body of meditation, and of course the spring return still has to be investigated from this vein.

The third grandmother was influenced by the Zheng family, never put the Zhou family in her eyes, talked about the illness slowly, and usually even found excuses to shirk the province in the morning and dusk, but she was determined to make friends with Chungui, so as to pave the way for the future of her mother's sister, and even accompanied Chungui to Zhou's residence, of course, the third grandmother had another layer of ill will.

Chungui finely measured Zhou's complexion, found that he was more gray and haggard than a few days ago, he was weak when he spoke, his mouth/lips were bloodless, he sat down, and often frowned, raised his hand to touch his chest, obviously felt depressed, she didn't have the appetite to taste the pastries sent by Chungui at all, and took a small bite, and it took dozens of breaths to swallow it, and it eased for a long time, and then he was full of apologies to accompany Chungui: "The lady has such a good mind, but I don't have the blessing to suffer, it's all this illness, and I'm really ashamed." ”

The third grandmother was anxious to sneer: "The eldest lady is sick of her heart this time, right?" There are so many gossips in the family, the second wife can't stop it with all her strength, and now, the people can believe it, if it weren't for the third wife's grievances, how could it be that the eldest wife was sick and difficult to get up, although she invited a doctor, those doctors all said that it was okay, but it couldn't be cured, but it became more and more serious. But if the daughter-in-law wants to say, why should the eldest wife be so worried? After all, the third wife is a person from the Qinglou, if not, it will be gone, the lord can't punish you for the third wife, otherwise where will you put the eldest uncle and the second uncle? At most, let Mo ask the chief to overtake the wronged soul, and the past will be written off, so the eldest lady can relax and save a lot of trouble. ”

These words were like an arrow stained with venom, shooting straight into Zhou's chest, Chungui saw her gasping for a while, suffocating her face, and couldn't bear it, and involuntarily acted with contemplation, one stroked Zhou's chest smoothly, and the other shook Zhou's hand and whispered comfort, Chun Gui felt such a hot weather, Zhou's palm was cold, she couldn't help frowning slightly, secretly thinking that Zhou's illness seemed to be really not light.

After a while, Zhou's eased up again, she was originally a cowardly temperament, but this time she really couldn't afford this fatal slander, and she didn't have the ability to show off all sides, so she became anxious, and she didn't care about the presence of an outsider who returned to Chungui, while crying, she was reprimanding Ning Si to kneel.

On the contrary, to the third grandmother, he did not speak harshly.

"Since I inquired about Mo and asked Chang Bu to say that the third sister was killed, I have asked Ning Si how many times, today in front of you, let Ning Si say by herself, whether she killed the third sister."

didn't mention whether contemplation was instructed by himself at all.

Chungui secretly thought: In this way, it is more and more not like the Zhou family is the real murderer behind the scenes, because she doesn't care that the rumors are directed at her, and she has no instinctive reaction to defend herself, and she pays more attention to whether the Bai family committed suicide or was killed by contemplation.

If Zhou is in disguise, it is too realistic.

I went to look at it again, and saw a resolute gathering between her eyebrows and eyes, although she knelt on her knees, she was in a proud posture, and she was not half distracted and afraid: "The slave and maid did not defile the third wife, let alone poison the third wife, and the slave and maid did witness the shameless behavior of the third wife that day, so she reported to the master, and the slave and maid did go to the kitchen to inspect the food given to the third wife because of the wife's instructions, but she was worried that after the third wife was punished, the people were sluggish, how could they be poisoned in the meal?" ”

Zhou was so anxious and angry that he almost lost his mind because of the third grandmother's questioning, but this maid was still calm and sober, and seeing that there was an outsider who returned to Chungui, she used the word "shameless" to mention why Bai was punished, and did not disclose the scandal.

Zheng's and the third grandmother all said that Ning Si was stupid, but she was so cautious, where was she stupid? Chungui believed in Bai's judgment of contemplation.

"If you really do something to poison people's lives, of course you won't admit it." The third grandmother disagreed with Ning Si's defense, and sneered: "Mo Dao Chang is broken, the third wife was killed unjustly, so naturally you, the whistleblower, slandered first, and then poisoned and killed." ”

In response to the assertion of the third grandmother, the "stupid" maid pondered but was not afraid, and responded calmly: "The slave and the third wife have no enmity or grudge, why do you want to frame and poison them?" According to the slave maid, maybe after the third wife committed suicide, some people resented it because of the slave and maid's report, so they bought Mo Wendao to come to the door and play a play, confusing the old man and suspicious, the third wife used to be a housekeeper for more than ten years, how many servants were obedient to the third wife, including the Sun family, the Sun family must have been bought by that person, blood spewed people, and the wife and the slave maid were defiled. If the wife doesn't believe in the slave and maid, the slave and the maid will go to the master and send the Sun family and the slave and maid to the official together, and the slave and the maid are willing to go to court with the Sun family. ”

Ning Si said it so categorically, causing Zhou to sigh: "San Lang's daughter-in-law, can you hear clearly?" I was also skeptical about the third sister's incident, in fact, I was also half-convinced, I asked Ning Si how many times, she insisted that she didn't say a word of lies, and swore that if she framed the third sister, she would rather suffer from the thunder and thunder from the sky, I also thought about it, Ning Si was bought into the house by us, and waited by my side, she has always been honest and diligent, and she does have no grudge against the third sister, where will there be such a bad heart, I really don't know the truth of this matter. ”

How can the third grandmother listen to it? still needs to be refuted, but Chungui was afraid that she would make Zhou's angry out, so he hurriedly proposed to say goodbye, and pulled the third grandmother to go with him, and said on the way: "Looking at the situation of the eldest wife, it is indeed not like instructing Ning Si to harm people, maybe Ning Si's words really make some sense, my sister didn't think about it, there are really people who resent Mrs. and Ning Si because of the death of the third wife?" ”

"Then there will only be three girls." The third grandmother sneered: "But before the third girl is ready, she has such a scheming and means to be able to buy off the internal and external anti-pollution wives?" Contemplation can really make it up, I can't imagine that the eldest wife is also so vicious, even the daughter of the third wife will not let go, this crime is confirmed, even if the old man is kind-hearted, the third girl should not think about a good marriage, and the eldest lady ruined her life in one fell swoop. ”

Chun Gui also pondered: It's just a matter of contemplating and accusing the Sun family, how can you insist that it is the sin of the third girl? The maid is obviously hidden, from the attitude of the third grandmother, can't you see that the person who spreads the rumors is the Zheng family? Did she do this with the intention of defending the Zheng family? But the Zheng family really didn't look like such a scheming person in the first place, and he lacked the motive to poison the Bai family.

Listening to the words of the third grandmother, she argued for the three girls, and insisted that the real culprit was Zhou and Ning Si, if Zhen and Ning Si were in the same party, she would not be afraid of being confessed after putting Ning Si to death?

Zheng has no critical handle to threaten Ning Si to commit it, assuming that she is the real murderer, she must only be bought with a lot of money, but no matter how greedy Ning Si is, she has to have her life to suffer it, where does Zheng come from to be sure that Ning Si would rather die and be loyal to her?

It's too contradictory, the real culprit can't be Zheng.

As she was walking out, she saw a corner of the corridor again, and the woman guarding the fire decoction was the charming and dazzling Aunt Zhen, and she reminded the third grandmother as soon as she thought about it: "Why don't you set Aunt Zhen's truth?" ”

The third grandmother's eyes also lit up: "Speaking of which, Aunt Zhen also lives in the main courtyard, and she is not far from the people around her wife, and contemplation, one is the left arm and the other is the right arm, but the left arm and the right arm do not deal with each other, maybe, you can really find out something." ”

Carrying the spring back together, I saw Aunt Zhen get up and salute, and stretched out her hand to support her for the first time, and she was noisy: "On such a hot day, those people are lazy, and they even shrink in the house, and they make my aunt be smoked by fire here, and my aunt is too honest to be bullied by Diao Nu." ”

Chungui smiled and said nothing, just looking at Aunt Zhen's expression, but seeing her soft eyebrows and eyes, she was condensed and ruthless at the moment, and her alienation and disdain for the third grandmother were clear at a glance. ”

"You!" The third grandmother was rushed by this, and her face was angry, and she actually slapped Aunt Zhen with a shake of her hand.

The clichΓ© can't be continued, and a lot of words have been wasted in Chungui, and the third grandmother is annoyed with Aunt Zhen's rampantness.

But in the evening, when Chungui and Lan Ting discussed and analyzed the case, their judgment of Aunt Zhen was very different.

"From the mouths of the rest of the people, I will not repeat Wang Jiugui's statement, I know that Aunt Zhen is very scheming and good at flattery, and today I see her treating the third grandmother's deliberate provocation like this, and I am more and more sure of the previous speculation."

"Oh? Let's hear it. "Lan Ting is very popular.

"Zheng's disrespect to Zhou, this is a well-known thing in the Wang family, Aunt Zhen was originally because of Zhou's suggestion, she became Wang Jiugui's concubine, it can be said that she is Zhou's natural camp, must be the same enemy as Zhou, today she listened to the words of the third grandmother, if she is still hypocritical, she will be contemplatively known, she will definitely provoke in front of Zhou, although Zhou is a generous housewife, there is a weakness, that is, the ears are also soft, Aunt Zhen in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, can only choke the third grandmother into anger, slap in the face, But there is no future trouble. ”

"The analysis makes sense." Lan Ting bowed his head and also expressed his opinion: "But when I heard Huihui's inquiry, I felt that the reason why Ning Si and Aunt Zhen turned her face seemed a bit far-fetched and deliberate, and I had a faint premonition, as if this point was extremely crucial. ”

Chungui didn't think of this at all, and said in surprise: "Oh? Let's hear about it, too. ”
