One hundred and fifty-six, wrongful killing
This carriage of Cao Fu set off in the afternoon, and it was naturally in a hurry along the way, without going into details.
Ye Fu didn't know the news yet, and Old Madam Ye was still thinking of a way to delay Cao Fu, and she was worried, but she heard the boss of the grain store come to the house.
The grain shop is just a very small industry of the Ye family, but this accident is very strange.
I only listened to the man: "The Lu family doesn't know why, it hasn't been paid for half a year, and Mr. Wood suddenly withdrew the funds a while ago......"
Even if the small grain shop goes bankrupt, it will not have much impact on the entire industry of the Ye family, but the abnormal behavior of the Lu family and Mr. Wood makes Mrs. Ye even more puzzled, which link went wrong?
However, she was not allowed to think too much, and she still had to take care of the shops, cargo ships and other things at the docks. Ye San also brought Ma Er to come a few times, saying that if the tea garden still has to be planted, it should be removed and weeded, and new seedlings can be planted in the spring of the next year.
Old Madam Ye waved her hand and said, "Give it to Lu An, he used to take care of the tea garden." ”
Ye San promised to leave, Rui Xi came over to add tea, and asked in a low voice, "Old lady, don't you want to train the eldest young master?" ”
Old Madam Ye rubbed her eyebrows in annoyance and said, "Lu Sheng looks like this now, I really don't worry about handing over things to him; handed over to Lu'an, and this time the tea garden was guarded; Second, I had an excuse to refuse his request to go back to the docks to take care of the merchant ships. ”
"The third young master has come to ask?" Rui Xi asked.
Old Madam Ye shook her head, thought about it and said: "He couldn't find a chance, but the Tong family asked me insinuating many times, and I prevaricated in the past, and the top priority is still the matter of the Cao family!" ”
Rui Xi nodded and said, "Old lady, take a rest, you may not have had a good night's sleep for a long time." ”
"No, I have to figure out what the Lu family and Wood mean." Saying that, Old Madam Ye looked at Rui Xi and said, "I still need you to watch the affairs of the house carefully for me, and you have to tell me truthfully if there is anything." ”
Rui Xi agreed, and then listened to Mrs. Ye's instructions: "You go and ask Lizhu, what have the Tong and Wang families been doing recently?" Lu An has not been able to see anyone again in the past two days. ”
Speaking of Lizhu, Rui Xi couldn't help but sweat for her again, if Mrs. Ye knew that Lizhu had two hearts, I was afraid that I didn't know how to deal with Lizhu...... Rui Xi had to agree first, and cautiously served Mrs. Ye.
At night, when Rui Xi found Lizhu, Lizhu was coming out of Tong Shuang's house.
When she saw Rui Xi in the moonlight, she was startled, and hurriedly pulled her to another place, and whispered, "What are you doing?" If we are seen, you and I will be exposed. ”
Rui Xi also looked left and right, and said, "Sister, I'm coming to see you." ”

"How dare you come at such a time? The old lady sent you? Lizhu was smart, and when he saw Rui Xi's embarrassed appearance, he had an idea in his heart, so he said directly: "What's the use of you coming to me?" You know, what is not good for Frost Niang at this moment, I will never do. ”
"Sister really won't change her mind? It's still early," Rui Xi couldn't find anything to persuade him, so he could only say: "It's still too late to turn back." ”
"What's going on?" Lizhu asked rhetorically, and said: "In the eyes of the old lady, you are such a face, I, I came back just to act as another flag." ”
"But you follow Shuangniang, you have no power and no power, how can she fight the old lady?"
"You don't have to know this," Lizhu paused and said, "In short, what Shuangniang can give me is what the old lady won't give." ”
"I don't care what Frost Niang can give you." Rui Xi said worriedly: "Sister, do you know that under this 'fragrant bait, there is a sharp hook', how can there be an old lady so safe with Shuangniang?" ”
"Ruixi, I treat you as a sister, so I don't want to lie to you." Lizhu only laughed at Rui Xi for being too simple and ignorant, she remembered the events of these years, and said: "Since I have been helping Shuang Niang...... I am afraid that I am losing my words, Lizhu suddenly stopped talking, but Rui Xi did not evade, and asked directly: "You mean, the young grandmother?" ”
When Lizhu heard this, he couldn't help but be shocked, and said, "What did you say?" ”
"I know, the death of the eldest young grandmother is actually not about the third young grandmother, right?" Rui Xi asked, looking at Lizhu's face becoming more and more pale, and said, "I heard what Shuangniang and Yun Niang said that day, and when I saw the bracelet on Qiluo's wrist, I began to doubt in my heart. ”
"You...... You ......" Lizhu couldn't speak, just thinking that if Rui Xi accidentally said it one day, then she Lizhu was really finished.
"Sister," Rui Xi continued to persuade unwillingly: "Listen to me, I won't tell you about this, you come back here, and even I can ask the old lady to let you go back to the East House to serve." ”
"Ruixi, you're thinking too simply." Lizhu stepped forward, approached Rui Xi, and said: "I can't go back, my life and death at the moment have been trapped by Shuangniang......"
"Sister......" Rui Xi saw her so panicked, she couldn't help but feel distressed and grabbed Lizhu with her backhand, and was about to speak, but Lizhu suddenly stretched out a hand and tightly pinched Rui Xi's neck.
"You can't say it, this is the only way out for me......" Lizhu red-eyed, she couldn't care about anything, rather than live in fear from now on, it was better to hold the initiative in her own hands at this moment.
Rui Xi was so frightened that her soul was scattered, and in such a cold night, Lizhu's pale face reflected in the lights was even more terrifying...... She slapped Lizhu's hand and begged with difficulty: "Sister, let go quickly......"
Lizhu only forced Rui Xi to struggle and retreat, and she had to rejoice that it was too remote, and it was quiet and no one passed by.
Rui Xi felt that it was becoming more and more difficult to breathe, and her small face also turned the color of pig liver, she opened her mouth to say something, but her neck was stuck too tightly, and she couldn't help tearing Lizhu's hand fiercely.
Lizhu continued to retreat against Rui Xi, she noticed that Rui Xi had begun to roll her eyes, she was not afraid, but the movements in her hand just couldn't stop, suddenly something sharp stinged her palm, when she withdrew her hand, she only heard a "plop" sound, and Rui Xi in front of her was like a stone planted into the pool behind her.
"Sister......" She seemed to hear Rui Xi calling her, but at this moment she began to panic again, her legs couldn't help but weaken, Lizhu knelt on the ground, and suddenly saw a flash, when she looked closely, it was a hairpin - she gave her ......
"Rui Xi!" Only then did she come to her senses, suppressed her screams and crawled to the edge of the pool, but Rui Xi's fluttering figure was gone. Lizhu called a few more times, and suddenly remembered that Rui Xi didn't know water......
Don't? Don't? Lizhu thought as she stepped back, she controlled herself not to think about anything else, she remembered that she had forced Rui Xi into the pool, but she was nowhere to be seen now......
