378, disorderly
"The grandmother and the second aunt in the upper room were checking the accounts, but the concierge suddenly came to more than a dozen officials, holding the approval of the government in their hands, saying that our family harbored a murder suspect, and they were ordered to come to arrest them! Now even my grandfather couldn't sit still, and went to socialize in person, but those officials were very arrogant, and they didn't leave any affection, and they were stunned to enter the house to search! ”
There is a life lawsuit, the human and material evidence is conclusive, and the Xu family is not a great eunuch, who will sell its face? In the name of obstructing official business, it is merciful to take down all the people.
"It's still that the third uncle is well-connected, and he has some friendship with the catcher they led, so it's good to say that only the officials searched the outer courtyard, and the inner courtyard was searched by the people of the Xu family led by them! Grandfather swore that there could be no such people in our family who violated the law and discipline! Who knew that the suspect was really searched out of the house in the end, and the official saw that it was the Xu family who handed him over, and he didn't pursue anything else, but only took the suspect away! "I'm afraid that this is also for the sake of Xu Shu helping Jingzhao Mansion solve the kidnapping case two years ago, so she doesn't care about the Xu family's crimes.
"Does the ninth sister know who that suspect is?"
"Who is it?" Xu Shu asked pretending not to know.
"He is the eldest son of the Bai family, who is his mother's companion, and now he is in charge of his mother's dowry shop, and everyone calls him the white shopkeeper, that is, the man who was going to marry before Fu Liu!"
Xu Shu looked at Xu Shu steadily, as if she wanted to distinguish something from Xu Shu's expression, and Xu Shu took the teacup and sipped slowly, not in a hurry.
"Does the ninth sister know why the official wants to take the white shopkeeper?"
"Because the white shopkeeper killed someone! You just said that the officials came to the Xu family because the Xu family harbored the murder suspect! ”
Xu Wei pursed her lips, "The white shopkeeper accidentally killed the eldest girl of his original Du family, and Aunt Du sued the yamen, saying that her girl was not sick to death, but was beaten to death!" Yamen dug up the body of the eldest girl of the Du family from the grave, and found that the bones of the eldest girl of the Du family were scarred, and she did not die of illness, and also found a bloody hammer in the cellar of the Bai family. ”
Xu Wei couldn't figure out why the Li family took such a big risk to harbor a murder suspect, just a subordinate, and disregarded the safety and reputation of the entire Xu family for the sake of a subordinate. Xu Shu knew that the idea of the white shopkeeper to lie about dying of illness after killing the eldest girl of the Du family was given to him by the Li family, and the Li family was reluctant to make money as a good money-making hand, and there was no one to rely on to bully the orphans and widows of the Du family, so he helped the white shopkeeper cover up the truth of the killing, and then in Li's heart, the one who died was just a subordinate, this is the family affair of the Xu family, she is the housewife, how to deal with her has the final say!
The Li family really doesn't care about anything for the sake of interests, Xu Shu has already learned this, what is courtesy, righteousness and shame, what is the ethics of ordinary people, for the sake of interests, the Li family can all be left behind!
"You are so strict with Grandma Sun, how can you know so much? It seems that the Xu family is really messed up, and they can't control the people below! Xu Shu smiled lightly, not caring about the current situation of the Xu family.
The Li family was seized power, the Yi family was menacing again, the third lady An was sent back to the ancestral house, the Wang family was sick, and there was no master in the family who could take care of things.
"I didn't see Grandma Sun when I went back that day! Later, I found out that Grandma Sun went to her grandmother's! Grandma Sun is good at making medicinal food, grandmother has an unbalanced spleen and stomach, and my father transferred Grandma Sun to Songde Hall to make medicinal food for my grandmother, and the seventh sister was sent by my father to my grandmother to serve the sick, and my mother almost affected the entire Xu family because of harboring the white shopkeeper, and my grandfather locked up the entire Chunhui Courtyard in a fit of anger, and no one was allowed to enter or exit, and the third sister-in-law was as timid as a mouse, and couldn't control anything, and the long house is now falling apart, and it is no longer the previous long house! ”
Xu Shu never thought that retribution would come so quickly, and before she could do anything, the Xu family would become a mess of porridge by herself, what a relief!
"Ninth sister, are you very happy? Watching the Xu family become like this, you feel very relieved, right? Because of the marriage, coupled with the death of Fu Liu, you hate the Xu family so much, and I wish the Xu family was unlucky! ”
Even though Xu Wan was disgusted with the hypocrisy of the Xu family, she still felt a little sad when she saw that the Xu family was not a family, she didn't want the Xu family to become like this, but she couldn't stop the Xu family from becoming like this, Xu Shu didn't seem to have done anything, so the Xu family became like this, which shows that the Xu family has been broken from the bones.
"It's not hate! I don't expect it to be unlucky, but the debt it owes must be repaid! Xu Shu smiled faintly, "The Xu family has a life and a grace to me, so even if the Xu family in the past is not good, I can only admit it and endure it, but I have already paid off the debt to the Xu family, and now the Xu family has nothing to do with me, if they hadn't forced Fu Liu to death, I wouldn't have any contact with the Xu family when I came back this time!" ”
"Does that include me?" Xu Wei stared at her hands, twisting her fingertips uneasily, she envied Xu Shu on the one hand, but she was afraid of Xu Shu's indifferent appearance from the bottom of her heart, the Xu family ended up like this, because she angered Xu Shu, she was afraid that one day Xu Shu would treat her like the Xu family.
Xu Shu knocked Xu Shu's head, "Not including you!" ”
Xu Wan covered her aching forehead, glared, and the little anxiety in her heart dissipated, and muttered, "I didn't want to tell you this, but I couldn't hold back my words, and I guessed that you probably wanted to know this, so I told you!" ”
"Accept your love, look back on your birthday, I will make you a bowl of longevity noodles with my own hands, it just so happens that I am 'poor', so I will take longevity noodles as a congratulatory gift!"
"I'll come to you for my birthday, right?" Xu Yu suddenly looked at Xu Shu pleadingly, "Now the house is in a mess, I'm a little child, who cares about my birthday!" ”
"Good!" Xu Shu agreed casually, the Xu family doesn't know when they will be able to ease up after this mess, and the access control rules will not be tightened again immediately, and everyone in the Xu family should know the news that they are still alive now, and when Xu Yu comes to find him, they should not dare to stop him. As for the Li family, he was first removed from the duties of the housekeeper by Xu Hui, and was grounded by the old lady Xu for harboring the white shopkeeper, and the Wang family was still checking the account books.
