Cui Hao stared at the servant woman, wanting to speak but couldn't help coughing.

He choked on water in the river and was rescued, but he still couldn't breathe, the Wan family brothers came over and wanted to help him rest, but Cui Hao shook his head and looked at the servant: "Where is the eldest lady?" ”

The servant woman looked at Xu Qinghuan and the others: "There are many family members of my family around here, all looking for Miss Four...... I'm afraid it's inconvenient to speak......"

"So, your eldest wife has known the inside story for a long time."

Xu Qinghuan's voice came, and the servant couldn't help but tremble, for some reason she was a little afraid of this Miss Xu, Miss Xu's eyes were very clear, as if she could see through people's minds at a glance.

The servant lowered her eyes and bowed her head: "The eldest lady is also guessing, and the slave and maid don't know the inside story." ”

"Report to the official," Xu Qinghuan said lightly, "This woman's death can't be related to Mrs. Yan, and the yamen is worried and can't ...... start."

Meng Lingyun answered and was about to leave.

"Don't ......," the servant woman said immediately, "Don't be like this, the eldest lady of my family is kind, how can you harm her." ”

"The case has to be investigated to find out who the murderer is," Xu Qinghuan looked at the servant, "How can I say that I am harming the eldest wife." ”

"Because," the servant woman became anxious, "when you say this, everyone knows that the fourth lady of my family is ......."

Xu Qinghuan said: "Fourth Miss Yan was helped by Mrs. Yan to leave the Yan family, where did Fourth Miss Yan go, Mrs. Yan knows best, you came to find Cui Hao, you just want to talk about this matter, right?" ”

The servant's eyes widened, with a look of disbelief, she didn't expect that Miss Xu had already guessed this.

Xu Qinghuan continued: "Miss Yan Si once asked me what Cui Hao would be charged with if Cui Hao escaped with her, it can be seen that Miss Yan Si has already thought about a way out, and the only person who helped her come up with ideas is Mrs. Yan. ”

After Xu Qinghuan finished speaking, he turned his head and looked behind him: "Mrs. Yan might as well come over and say something, so as not to be found to go to Yan's house." ”

The servant woman looked around again with a shrunken voice, and finally swallowed: "Miss, wait a minute, I'll go and ask for the eldest lady." ”

The servants of the Yan family left, and Cui Hao was also anxious to go together.

"Cui Gongzi," Xu Qinghuan said, "Why don't you just wait here, if Mrs. Yan comes to inform Miss Yan Si's whereabouts, she will definitely send the news, and you are in a situation like this, with the Yan family's subordinates walking around, I am afraid that I will lose my strength if I really want to find someone for a while." ”

Xu Qinghuan looked at Meng Lingyun, and Meng Lingyun immediately took out a set of clean clothes.

Xu Qinghuan said: "This was just bought from someone nearby, Cui Gongzi might as well change it first." ”

Cui Hao didn't have the heart to do these things, but what Miss Xu said made sense, he clenched his fists, temporarily stabilized his mind, bowed down to thank Xu Qinghuan, followed the Wanjia brothers to change their clothes, and then hurriedly walked back.

"Miss Xu," Cui Hao was silent for a long time, his voice hoarse, "Do you know what the hell is going on?" ”

Cui Hao's sad expression was a little confused: "Many times, I don't know whether to stick to it or give up." ”

"Have you thought about giving up?" Xu Qinghuan asked.

Cui Hao was stunned for a moment before he said: "I thought about it, I was sold to a family as a nurse, although I was a subordinate, the life was quite peaceful, and then there were mountain bandits in the house, and many nurses and subordinates died, and the main family entrusted the little boy to me, so that I must take the little boy out, I am grateful for the kindness of the main family, although I was seriously injured and fortunately did not disgrace my life."

Later, when the people from the government arrived, the mountain bandits left in a hurry, and the lord's family remembered my loyalty, and from then on they would treat me as a close confidant, and promised me the maid beside my wife, and said that they would not treat us as subordinates in the future. ”

When Cui Hao said this, he seemed to be talking to himself: "I believed it, but unfortunately I lost something in the house later, and after the main family inquired, he said that I stole it at that time, and also said that I colluded with the previous mountain bandits......

The human heart is really strange, and it is also incomprehensible, true or false, I always can't tell the difference, and I believe it again and again and is questioned again and again.

They beat me and threw me in the firewood room, preparing to send me to the yamen, but I didn't expect the government to come to recruit troops, and the lord simply filled me up.

So before I went to the northern frontier, I was already guilty of stealing. ”

Cui Hao said here and took a long breath: "The road to northern Xinjiang is far away, I was injured, almost died in the middle of the way, at that time I thought about giving up, people die and don't feel pain, just at the last moment someone saved me, told me that when I let go of all my troubles, I can get rid of the sea of suffering, there is still hope in my heart, then I can see the rising sun." ”

Speaking of this, Cui Hao smiled: "I am also glad to have survived, so that I can make military achievements in Northern Xinjiang, I have always been grateful to that person, that person is the first person who is really willing to reach out to save me."

I have always been hopeful, back to Changzhou to find my biological parents, although the Zheng family does not want to recognize me, I am not sad, the Zheng family naturally has their own difficulties, I also met Miss Yan Si, but at first I didn't think she would treat me well, even if I moved, as long as I knew my past, I would turn around and leave, just like the Zheng family......

I didn't expect ...... She was genuine to me...... But I still hurt her. ”

When Cui Hao raised his head, such a rugged man's face was already full of tears: "Miss Xu, do you say that people should really have hope?"

I still can't see clearly, so many people, so many things, which one is true and which one is false, who is good and who is evil. ”

"No one knows," Xu Qinghuan looked at Cui Hao, "Do you know why I want to investigate the case?" It is to want those secrets hidden in the dark, some people are good at hiding, some people are good at demagoguery, no one should believe them, don't listen to them, but think for yourself to see. ”

Xu Qinghuan looked at the corpse: "Even a corpse will lie to you, let alone those nice people." ”

Cui Hao's hands trembled a little.

Xu Qinghuan continued: "Miss Yan Si left the Yan family for you, she knows that everything you have in the Northern Xinjiang is not easy to come by, and she wants you to live an upright life, no matter what happens, don't just ruin yourself." ”

Cui Hao still didn't speak, as if he was thinking carefully.

Xu Qinghuan turned his head: "Cui Hao, have you ever turned your head to look behind you?" People walk a lot and look forward, few people will look in the past, especially if you have some disgust for the past in your heart, but many times you look at the past with the eyes of the present, and there may be other gains.

When I went to the Yuan family, those mountain bandits did come strangely, as the mountain bandits should be the first to forcibly take property, but they killed people on a large scale, you should have died in the hands of those mountain bandits, but you survived, and then the Yuan family was deceived and suspicious of you, although the Yuan family was ungrateful and hateful, but the person who deceived them was the culprit. ”

Cui Hao looked at Xu Qinghuan in surprise: "Miss Xu went to Yuan's house to inquire about my past?" ”

Xu Qinghuan nodded: "Because you came suddenly and asked my father to help inquire about your life experience, I became suspicious of you, I don't really believe that you are sincere to Miss Yan Si, so I asked people to check these and be wary of your every move." ”

Cui Hao said: "It turns out that Miss Xu has always doubted me. ”

"The person who doubts at the beginning is not necessarily a bad person, and the person who always trusts is not necessarily a good person," Xu Qinghuan looked forward, and Mrs. Yan walked over quickly.

"You need to see for yourself."
