Three hundred and fifteen: Surprised
The next day, Su Yunyao got up early and came to Cheng's house with Su Moyao, Sheng Guizhi had just gotten up, and the two happened to arrive, so they had breakfast together.
The breakfast was light but hearty, the stewed fish soup fried small buns, the boiled beef porridge and hot green vegetables, and Su Moyao burped several times after eating.
"You're here for the gang your cousin caught yesterday, right?"
"My cousin-in-law is so smart!" Su Yunyao sat next to Sheng Guizhi, holding the teacup in one hand, "Cousin-in-law, do you know what is going on here?" ”
"Your cousin told me." Sheng Guizhi told all his knowledge, "There is a snake head named Chen Yu who has missed the catch, he is cunning and cunning, he has been a guard in the house before becoming a snake head, he has sold vegetables in the morning market, and he has also gone to the farm to help pick cherries. ”
Su Yunyao didn't speak, she listened quietly, and Su Moyao wasn't curious about it, so she was still eating snacks next to her.
"By the way, the confession named Chen Xian said that Chen Yu used to work as a coachman in the Su family, and it must have been about 20 years ago, saying that he knew the second lady of your family at that time, so the Cao family came into contact with the snake head, and then harmed you again and again through the snake head."
"No wonder!" Su Moyao suddenly raised her voice, "I said, how can such a deep resentful woman as the Cao family know the head of the snake, it turns out that there is a connection for a long time!" ”
"More than twenty years ago... Cousin-in-law, you continued. ”
"The Cao family asked Chen Yu to help do a lot of things, such as kidnapping your fifth sister, sending people to climb over the wall into your house to assassinate your fourth lady, and the time when a group of people fired arrows at you outside the Guoto Temple, etc., they all did it."
"Well, our family knows all these things, and I have long guessed that it was instructed by the Cao family, but I don't understand, since Chen Yu and the Cao family know each other, why do you have to ask the Cao family for money again and again to do things?"
"Still don't understand?" Sheng Guizhi explained, "The reason why it is not easy to be caught as a snake head is because there are two words "people" and "laborers" as cover, and when they have nothing to do, they do some farm work in the Zhuangzi, who will suspect them? But ordinary people and laborers must be dragging their families with their mouths, Chen Yu alone does not take money, and he can't let those who do things also give Cao's face without taking money, right? ”
"This makes sense, why did the Cao family always transport silver coins and jewelry out in large bags and small packages in the past." Su Yunyao said to herself.
"It's not over yet, Chen Xian said that Chen Xiao and the Cao family are very close, and the Cao family followed Chen Yu to spend the night with him when he was sent to Zhuangzi by your father to be grounded."
"What!" Su Yunyao and Su Moyao exclaimed together.
There's no such way to get acquainted, right? Lonely men and widows just go out for the night? Although the two Yao are not married, if you want to say that Cao Qianlian and Chen Yu just slept cleanly when they went out, it is simply no one to believe it, and the two of them are not children of three or two years old, so this thing cannot deceive them.
"Sister-in-law, what you said is true? The Cao family and the one named Chen Xiao are so unbearable? Su Yunyao asked again.
Sheng Guizhi nodded, "What's more, that Chen Xian confessed a lot of things, he became a snake head a few years ago, and he doesn't know much about Chen Xiao's past, but he knows that the Cao family and Chen Xiao are mixed, and you don't know anything else, that Cao family is not a fuel-efficient lamp." ”
How is this not fuel-efficient, Sheng Guizhi didn't tell the two of them, it doesn't matter whether they say it or not, the main thing is that the two of them are unmarried girls, and they don't have to pollute their ears.
"It's excessive! What is this for my father? Su Moyao said angrily, "That cheap woman of the Cao family, why didn't you beat her to death with a few boards in the first place?" ”
"This matter is not overnight, the Cao family and that Chen Xiao have known each other for more than 20 years, and they have been in private but their father has never found out, which also shows that the Cao family is very ghostly, if you don't want to completely defeat her, I am afraid that flowers and plants can make her make a comeback."
"The eldest brother was so dirty, it turned out to be his own mother, it's really appalling, my father is afraid that he will be mad when he finds out."
"Don't say it's a father, who doesn't get angry when they hear this?" Su Yunyao said helplessly, "Now the affairs of His Royal Highness King Yu are still burning and my eyebrows are messy, and the affairs at home are not stopping, which really makes me breathless." ”
"You don't have to worry about His Royal Highness King Yu's affairs, and it's not your turn to make plans, so let's rest."
"But the little grandfather is worried, he has to worry about me, right?"
The two Yao said, and they both saw that Sheng Guizhi's face was not very good, and they couldn't help but be a little curious.
"Cousin-in-law, what's wrong with you? Feeling bad or not feeling well? ”
"Neither." Sheng Guizhi shook his head and said, "It's just that seeing that Nian Ning is pregnant, my stomach hasn't moved for a long time, and I'm a little anxious." ”
"This kind of thing is not in a hurry, the fourth sister was anxious to have a child, but the more anxious the child is, the more she doesn't come, I don't have to see my second sister's Yi'er, I have to hug the child and come back, and the saying of the rural hug belt is also a little accurate, why don't you try it?" Su Moyao said.
"You got rid of that bad idea." Su Yunyao also persuaded, "Sister-in-law, don't worry, the child will naturally come if she is destined, and besides, His Royal Highness King Yu is busy with political affairs at the moment, and he has to guard against the Lin family all the time, and his cousin must often help His Royal Highness King Yu, your child can't be conceived out of thin air, right?" ”
As a little girl who has not been out of the cabinet, Su Yunyao is a little cheeky when she says this, she doesn't think anything about it, but Sheng Guizhi over there is blushing.
"Your cousin asked me to tell you about the Cao family, you should be vigilant, don't be harmed by her, her person is very vicious in the city, if there is no perfect strategy, you will never be able to get rid of her."
Su Yunyao nodded and said, "Indeed, although my father has the intention to get rid of her, but her daughter is from Hengwangfu, so she can't kill her so casually, no matter how good the reason is, it's useless." ”
"You can transfer the Cao family to the government and tell Lord Yin that she and the snakehead colluded to kill people, and the daughter-in-law of the Ningguo Mansion was killed by her."
This is already the best way Su Moyao can come up with.
"Nope." Su Yunyao's eyes were very gloomy, "I can imagine the despair when the fifth sister committed suicide, it must not be so cheap Cao Qianlian, if it is really handed over to the government, it may not be handled properly by us, what if the government just imprisons her for a few years, or casually takes her life?" The fact that the fifth sister did not die at her hands is not enough to convict her. ”
"Then you mean that you want to wait for everything to settle before you start dealing with the Cao family?" Sheng Guizhi asked.
"She doesn't need me to deal with it, what I have in my hands right now, coupled with my father's hatred and boredom of her, is enough for her to die ten times and eight times, now what matters is not the small things in my family, but the big things of His Royal Highness King Yu, the Lin family has become more and more proud recently, and if it goes on like this, I am afraid that His Royal Highness King Yu will no longer have the possibility of turning over."
These two things together made Su Yunyao have a headache.
Sheng Guizhi was also worried about this matter.
Cheng Tao has been following King Yu, King Yu came down from the throne of the prince, it can be said that his identity has plummeted, coupled with the strong momentum of the Lin family and King Heng, so King Yu will be completely defeated.
He has the ability and wisdom to be empty, but he was elbowed by his father at the top, and framed by his brother and the Lin family at the bottom, and Sheng Guizhi especially understood the difficulties of King Yu.
Can be understood, no one can live by understanding two words, right?
"You stay here for lunch, the cook who serves lunch is from Yangzhou, your aunt specially dialed it for me and your cousin, and made a hand of Yangzhou cuisine, just when you came, you can't miss it."
"Really?" As soon as Su Moyao heard this, she instantly threw all her displeasure behind her, and said, "Yangzhou's eight-treasure food box and steamed pork with sauce are a must!" I also want to eat fragrant roasted pigeon, tempeh fish soup, fried lotus root flour minced meat cake, and ingots crisp! ”
"Done, I'll do it for you." Sheng Guizhi turned his head and asked Su Yunyao, "You order two." ”
"Sister Ten has ordered so much, where can the three of us finish eating? I won't order it. ”
"Don't, if you can't eat it, you can bring it back to your family, so that the old lady can taste the taste of Yangzhou."
Both Yao have lived in Yangzhou, and if they want to talk about the scenery and buildings, pavilions and pavilions, the two of them don't remember much, but when it comes to food, then the two of them are really talking, and they don't stop for a while.
"Since my cousin-in-law said so, then I'll trespass it once." Su Yunyao said with a smile, "The flower cooking quail is more tender, grandmother has bad teeth, she can't eat too crispy and hard food, and then make a sweet pear roasted pork ribs, my mother loves to eat." ”
After a while, a large table of Yangzhou dishes was served, and Su Moyao ate with a mouth full of oil, and left Cheng's house with a burp.
On the carriage back to the house, Su Yunyao poured a cup of tea for her, "Hurry up and eat a cup of tea, the vegetables are too oily, and you are too, but you just stared at the meat, and no one grabbed it from you." ”
As he spoke, the carriage suddenly stopped, lifted the curtain, and it turned out to be King Heng.
"Long time no see, Miss Su."
"The courtiers greet His Royal Highness King Heng." Su Yunyao hurriedly got out of the carriage, and pulled Su Moyao by the way, and let her get out of the carriage together.
"Hurry up, Miss Su's greetings, this king can't afford it."
"The prince laughed." Su Yunyao had a smile on her face, but the smile didn't reach the bottom of her eyes, as if there was a hint of hatred.
"Where are the two girls from, are you interested in going to this king's mansion to sit? Your seventh sister thinks about you every day, and often mentions to this king how inseparable she was from you when she was at home before, and now she is going to the palace to accompany her, and when she turns back, this king personally explains to Master Su. ”
This is forcing the two Yao, they will go if they go, and if they don't go, they will go.
On the street, King Heng opened his mouth and made up such a reason, and the people had to take it seriously when they heard it, so how could they have the opportunity to politely refuse?
