Chapter 242: Confirm that it's him
Mrs. Sheng walked over with the support of Tao's mother, and she slowly walked towards the coffin with a cane.
Wan and Song secretly exchanged glances, didn't they already send someone to take care of her, why did she suddenly appear here?
The people in the second room had a ghost in their hearts, staring at the old lady and not daring to relax for a moment.
The old lady returned to her former kind and kind appearance, her hair was meticulously combed, and her expression was solemn, neither happy nor sad.
Only Shen Yu carefully noticed that the old lady, a person who doesn't like makeup, put on a lot of powder today.
Mrs. Sheng walked to the coffin, and she lifted the white handkerchief covering the deceased's face with her crutches.
Sure enough, after soaking in the river for a few days, the corpse's face had been scratched by the reef, and his facial features were indistinguishable.
The courage in the mourning hall stretched his neck with curiosity to see, Sheng Yanqing grew up under the watchful eye of the old lady, and the person who knew him best was the old lady.
If the old lady said that there was something wrong with the corpse, no one would dare to refute it.
"Pull your pant leg up." The old lady said.
People of Tao's mother's age have already sent away many people. In the past, Master Sheng, the eldest young master, and the eldest lady, who had served in the mansion for many years, were all buried by Mother Tao.
Although the deceased's face was hideous, Tao's mother was not very afraid, and she pulled up the deceased's trouser leg as she said.
Shen Yu was standing next to the coffin, and she could clearly see that there was an obvious scar on the deceased's calf.
The scar was a finger long, and the wound was so deep that it was clearly recognizable even from the swelling of the corpse's vesicles.
The old lady's body shook and she almost fainted.
She staggered to the coffin, two lines of hot tears burst out of her eyes, her blood surged up, and she fainted in front of her eyes.
"Old lady!"
There was an exclamation in the mourning hall, and Shen Yu hurriedly supported the old lady, called a soft sedan chair, and sent the person back to Heshou Hall.
When she was doing these things, Shen Yu was well organized, but when she was free, she was blind.
The old lady was still asleep, and Mother Tao said to Shen Yu: "The second young master has a scar on his leg. At that time, not long after Aunt Zhao left, the eldest lady took the second young master to Ruyixuan. The second young master is greedy for fun, and often goes out over the wall, and the eldest lady has warned him many times, but he doesn't listen. Later, one time, I didn't know when the porcelain tiles were placed on the wall, and the second young master didn't know, and he scratched his leg when he climbed over the wall. ”
"The thin sharp porcelain piece happened to be on the wall, and the second young master's leg was bleeding nonstop, which scared the people dumbfounded. It was that time that the second young master was left with a scar on his leg. ”
Thinking of the past, Tao's mother is still embarrassed.
Everyone knew that the eldest lady was annoyed that Sheng Yanqing was disobedient and deliberately put porcelain pieces on his way.
At that time, he was only five or six years old, and he had a child's temperament, so naturally he couldn't fight the eldest lady, and he could only endure the loss.
The old lady was very guilty about this matter, and she was also haunted by this scar.
Seeing this scar, the old lady decided that it was Sheng Yanqing who died.
Shen Yu's face was a little stiff, and her heart was numb.
It was hard for her to convince that a good person was gone. She still remembered how he looked when the two were separated, and he said that he told her to go home first and wait for him to come back.
They had even agreed that the deal had been negotiated, and they would have a showdown with the old lady together.
Shen Yu made a lot of plans for the future of the two, and all of them came to naught in an instant.
She stood up like a puppet and walked in the Sheng family's compound as if she had lost her soul.
Unconsciously, she actually walked to Sheng Yanqing's residence.
Xu Xinyue was looking for something in Zhang Luo, and when she saw Shen Yu coming, she sighed and said, "Second brother left suddenly, I came to get two clothes for him to change into, so that he can go decently." ”
Shen Yu glanced at the servants in the room, the drawers and bookshelves were all in a mess, they were not here to look for clothes at all.
The maid Huan'er came out of the back room, she shook her head at Xu Xinyue, she didn't find what she was looking for.
Xu Xinyue pretended to take two pieces of clothes and said, "I left first, many people came to worship, and there were no people in the front yard." ”
Shen Yu had no intention of reasoning with these people, she stood in the empty courtyard, letting her tears flow.
She still didn't believe that Sheng Yanqing died like this.
The body was found, and the old lady confirmed it with her own eyes, and the people in the second room spread their hands and feet.
The funeral was scheduled for two days later, and the news had already spread through the streets and alleys of Qingshui Town.
Zhou Yingxue also heard about it, and her face was full of disbelief, "How could this happen?" I met him at the tea party in Tongcheng not long ago! ”
A good person says no, no one, and anyone thinks it's incredible.
Mrs. Zhou thought that her daughter liked Sheng Yanqing, she said: "The Sheng family has such a limelight at the tea party, there must be someone who can't look past it and wants to teach the Sheng family a lesson." In the final analysis, his foundation is too shallow to hold his breath. ”
At the same time, Mrs. Zhou secretly rejoiced that she was not engaged to the Sheng family.
Otherwise, wouldn't his baby bumpy daughter have to be widowed?
When the news reached the Shen family, Shen Huaian threw down the jar containing the crickets in his hand and said with a smile: "Really fake? The old lady of the Sheng family personally admitted that the corpse was Sheng Yanqing? ”
The person who reported the news nodded, "It's true, in the past, I just said that I was missing, and everyone didn't take it seriously." This time, the bodies were all found, and they must be dead. ”
Shen Huai'an laughed, and he said regretfully, "I've always regarded him as an opponent, now it's okay, Ayu is my own, I'll go to the Sheng family to pick her up now." ”
"Young master, no, the master said he wouldn't let you go out!" The subordinates hurriedly blocked the door.
Shen Huai'an kicked over the stool at his feet, he picked up the sword and pointed at his subordinates: "Are you tired of being alive?" What my dad says matters, or your life matters, weigh it yourself! ”
Shen Huai'an has always done whatever he wants, and it is common to beat and scold his subordinates, and when the servants saw that he had a sword in his hand, they didn't dare to step forward to stop him.
Shen Huai'an wanted to pick up Shen Yu back, he walked to the main courtyard, but saw a sedan chair parked in the courtyard, and there were several eye-catching guards standing in front of the main house, all with guns on their waists.
During this time, Shen Sihai was recuperating at home, and his words were not smooth, and he couldn't do without the service of the servants, what kind of distinguished guests would let Shen Sihai drag his sick body out of bed?
Shen Huai was curious, he wanted to step forward to take a look, but the subordinate whispered: "Young master, the master is discussing matters inside, and no one is allowed to come forward." ”
"Okay, I know, I'll just stand here and wait." Shen Huai'an said with a smile.
It's rare for his young master to be so kind, and the people don't dare to say anything.
Shen Huai'an stood a few steps away in front of the door, and could vaguely hear the sound of talking inside.
Although I can't really hear it, I can vaguely hear the words "Sheng Family", "Tea", and "Contract" that are always repeated.
After a while, the people inside came out, and Shen Huai'an was taken aback.
