Chapter 93: The Serpent and Scorpion
After getting the instructions of the spring return, Qu Chu was also listening to the Wu family at this moment, she had basically judged that Wu Ergui was the murderer of her brother and sister-in-law, and she naturally took a serious look at this person, seeing that this man of about thirty years, although he was born with a dignified appearance and a burly physique, there was a sense of irritability between his eyebrows, and he was not a benevolent person at first glance.
Wu Lao Niang, who was sitting cross-legged on the kang bed, was crying at this time: "Blame you bastard, how can you be so ruthless to your brother-in-law?" What else does your eldest brother do to you, at that time you were going to split up, your eldest brother gave you most of the family's savings, you have been wandering outside for so many years, and you have lost all your capital, did your eldest brother ever say that you are not half a sentence? I nagged a few words, and he also spoke for you, saying that it was not easy to make a living outside, he couldn't persuade you, and made you suffer, now it's easy for you to figure it out, and I'm willing to stay in Fenyang for a lifetime, so I don't blame you anymore. And contribute money and efforts, build a house and a yard for you, and take you to do carpentry, what will you do? That is, to give your brother a start, has your eldest brother ever lost you half a penny in terms of wages? For what a little thing, just for a tree, you dare to kill someone! ”
Qu Out: Now it's okay, the case is solved, and the murderer is really Wu Ergui, but what motive is this, killing people for the tree?
But when he heard a loud shout, he was so frightened that he almost lost his soul, and he stood on the ground with a good look, and suddenly floated up to the beams of the house.
The person who drank heavily was none other than Wu Ergui.
Not only did he drink violently, but he also overturned the kang table, originally there was only a little irritability between his eyebrows, but at this time, his eyes were full of cruelty: "Since my mother blames me, she shouldn't have covered it up for me in the first place, she should have accused me of sending me to death prison!" ”
Wu Lao Niang was taken aback, shrunk in the corner of the kang, and cried louder: "I have only two sons, your eldest brother is gone, you want to have another good one, how can I live?" I've really done something, although I've always known that you have a bad temper, especially after drinking a little alcohol, you're even more confused, but I never thought that you would dare to hurt people! Or your brother......"
When he said that, he saw that the curtain of the door was lifted, and there was a woman with a water snake waist and a pink face standing at the door, she was holding a fan in her hand, her nails were dyed with impatiens juice, and the corners of her lips were slightly raised, but she did not smile: "Old lady, you underestimate your son, even if he doesn't drink, he dares to kill!" Over the years, he has more than one or two lives in his hands. ”
One sentence made Mrs. Wu's eyes widen in horror, and the woman came in slowly with her waist swinged, sat in a chair far away, put a fan, picked up the tea to eat, and only said after the tea bowl was placed: "What are you anxious about?" How much is it worth getting angry like this, isn't it the Xiucai surnamed Hua, helping your nephew's little thing to come out, and wants to sue your uncle for murder, this matter has come to this point, and it doesn't matter to you alone, Hu Tongju helped, even Master Shi can't get out of it, Hu Tongju sent someone today, just to give you a wake-up call, let you pay attention, we are now, but we are all grasshoppers on a rope, and no one can watch the fire from the other side. ”
"If it weren't for the adulteress you killed this day, Ergui wouldn't have been able to get into trouble with his brother!" Mrs. Wu glared at the woman.
Qu pondered: I'm afraid this is the Zhang family.
"What's the use of getting angry, the angry uncle can come back to life?" Zhang squinted at Mrs. Wu, not without disdain: "Mrs. should also think about it, the uncle left those savings, more than half of them were given to Shi Qiye, so that the husband can get away with it, if you can't pass this hurdle now, don't say anything about the money in vain, the husband will have to lose his life, old lady, do you still expect the sister-in-law to come out of prison and support you regardless of the previous suspicions?" ”
"That's it!" Wu Ergui drank at Zhang's at this time, but his tone sounded much gentler than when he drank Lao Niang: "What kind of mouth are you grinding with an old woman like her, or think about it for me, how to get past this hurdle." ”
"Didn't the official convey the meaning of Hu Tong's judgment, let the old lady go to the school to make trouble, and scolded the poor and sour Xiucai who came out for the Jiang family is also an adulterer who corrupts Sven, if he doesn't want to be dismissed, he should know that he can't wade into this muddy water anymore. According to my meaning, this is not very reliable, it is best to get rid of Wu Yunkang's scourge again, no matter how Zhao Zhizhou interrogates him, there is no longer any evidence, and he has no choice but to get a husband. ”
"You, an adulteress who does all kinds of evil, can't give birth to children yourself, and you still want to harm my Wu family, the only seedling, what kind of evil have you really done, my family has invited such a scourge to you." When Mrs. Wu heard Zhang's idea, she pulled her neck and cried, and beat the kang bed with her fists again and again.
Qu Chu couldn't sympathize with this old woman, and sneered: "I only don't treat my daughter-in-law as a human life, and she deserves to be abused by this poisonous woman." ”
But the three members of the Wu family couldn't hear the accusations, and the Zhang family didn't care about Wu Lao Niang's crying at all, she leaned on the back of the chair and squinted at her: "You are still reluctant to Wu Yunkang, the only seedling?" But he doesn't want his nephew to kill his uncle, where is your grandmother in his eyes, only his own mother, as long as the husband is sentenced to death, the old lady still thinks about your good daughter-in-law and grandson to support you? Wake up and daydream, husband is now the only filial son you can count on. ”
"Two expensive, two expensive!" Mrs. Wu went to pull her son's arm: "You can't listen to the instigation of this adulteress and harm your nephew again." ”
Wu Ergui pulled out his arm heavily, and his face didn't turn slightly to the old lady's side, and went straight to Zhang: "If you want to do it to Yunkang at this time, I'm not even more confused?" ”
"What are you afraid of, these days, in order to have a bite of meat with his sister-in-law, isn't he going to fish in the Yangcheng River every day? Just keep an eye out for avoiding people, and push him into the river, saying that he had lost his foot and was washed into the river and drowned. ”
"What a poisonous scorpion-hearted, inhumanizing thing!" Qu out snooped at this, so angry that he floated up, went out directly through the roof, rushed to the mansion like a gust of wind, and hurriedly told Chun Gui about Wu Ergui and Zhang's poisonous plan.
When Chungui heard this, he couldn't sit still, and was anxious to remind Lan Ting to be careful, but he didn't know that he actually led Yin Jiyu and Sun Ning out of the palace, and he didn't know where he went when he saw that it was already night, and he didn't even return to the courtyard all night.
It wasn't until the next day that Chun Gui inquired about Delan Ting leading Qiao Zhuang to see a doctor for the Jiang family, she hurried over, but at the gate of the hospital, she was bumping into the black-faced Lord Weng, Chun Hui said ten thousand blessings, and only got a cold snort, could it be that the father and son had a dispute again? Chun Gui saw the angry back of Father Weng, and only thought about it in his heart for a while, and left behind the injustice of eating a cold face inexplicably.
This courtyard is the west road by the inner courtyard, and there is also a pavilion to raise a pond of koi, and there is a crape myrtle tree that is bright and beautiful, which is originally very suitable for the ladies' residence, but Mrs. Shen has no girls under her knees, so it is idle at this time.
Chun Gui entered the courtyard gate, and at a glance saw three people sitting in the pavilion, it seemed that Qiao Zhuang was asking, but Jiang Shi was still cowering, she had changed into a clean dress, and her hair bun had been combed, the whole person looked extremely thin, avoided her face, her eyes were empty, and she did not respond to Qiao Zhuang's question, but she left an opinion on Chun Gui's step, just looked at her eyes lightly, and quickly avoided it.
Although Chun Gui was worried about Wu Xiaolang's safety, he did not forget to care about Jiang's condition first.
"The body is fine, and the injuries on my hands have healed, but my heart is seriously ill and I can't respond to the question. Lan Ting told Chun Gui in a low voice, and asked her again: "I heard Tang Hui say that you sent someone to ask me where I was going last night, but if there is anything important, I also wanted to wait for Azhuang to look for you after the consultation, and I didn't want you to find you." ”
Chungui originally considered whether he should avoid the Jiang family, but when he saw her situation, she was in a trance and didn't seem to be able to hear the conversation, and there seemed to be no need to avoid it, so she also whispered: "I suddenly remembered, if Wu Ergui really has the ruthlessness of killing his brother, and now that I heard that the crime is likely to be exposed, will it be unfavorable for Wu Xiaolang to jump over the wall in a hurry." ”
"According to Jiang's previous confession, there is no deep hatred between the Wu brothers, if Wu Ergui is indeed the real murderer, he can only kill someone by mistake during the dispute, and he may not really have the heart to hurt his nephew again." Lan Ting's response was unimpressed.
Chun Gui was about to argue in a hurry, but when she saw Lan Ting secretly paying attention to Jiang's expression, she followed in her heart and changed her tone: "Hearing what Uncle said, I am really worried about it." ”
Lan Ting didn't stay here for long, and called the maidservant to explain a few words, and then left the courtyard with Chungui, and as soon as he got out of the courtyard, Chungui asked: "Don't you suspect that Jiang's hysteria is pretending?" ”
"Just now she heard that Wu Xiaolang may be in danger, her expression changed, although she should have been tortured, she will not completely lose her mind, I guess she has some scruples in her heart to pretend to be confused, just in case I guessed wrong this time, I forced the question too harshly, and I was afraid that it would really aggravate her symptoms and not be conducive to finding out the facts of the case, so I should look for an opportunity to test it again."
Lan Ting bowed his head again: "As for the worries that Hui Hui said, I have already thought of it, and yesterday I first arranged for credible manpower to secretly protect it. ”
Spring return is completely relieved.
