Chapter 117 Inquiry
Shi Qingxue pouted dissatisfiedly, pretending to be pitiful, "Woo, the big brother is so bad, after having a big sister, he forgot about my little cabbage, no one hurts and no one loves him, it's so pitiful......"
In the end, he hummed a tuneless song, which was miserable and very funny.
Shi Baoning wanted to laugh but couldn't laugh out loud in public, so he could only glare at Qingxue fiercely as a warning.
Shi Qingxue felt that she was being bullied again, so she turned to Dong Hui's arms, and said bitterly: "Mother, even my big sister has started to bully me this time, I really don't want anyone anymore, but what should I do?" ”
Dong Hui couldn't help but comfort her little daughter, knowing that she was pretending, she couldn't help but comfort, "Someone wants someone to want you, our Qingxue is a big baby, everyone is rushing to ask for it." The little things your big brother gave you are not enough, my mother has prepared a better one for you, okay? ”
"Really?" Shi Qingxue's little hand rubbing her eyes listened, peeked at Dong Hui from between her eyes, and hurriedly asked, "Then I want the picture of "Wind Flowers and Snow Moon" painted by Master Zhao Yan in front of me, is it okay?" ”
The painting master Zhao Yan has excellent painting skills, has been dead for decades, his paintings have been admired, and there are not many posthumous works, thousands of gold and silver are not necessarily sought, people who love flowers have always regarded Zhao Yan's paintings as a status symbol.
Dong Hui's grandfather once intersected with Zhao Yan, and he was fortunate to get a masterpiece, and then it was given to Dong Hui as a dowry by the Dong family.
Shi Qingxue had already known about this, and had coveted her mother's 'property' for a long time, so she couldn't help but open her mouth.
Dong Huigang boasted about Haikou, even if he was reluctant, he had to respond hard, "Okay, I'll ask Ah Zheng to find the painting from the warehouse and send it to your room when I go back, okay!" ”
Shi Qingxue smiled contentedly, and said a few clever words, making everyone laugh.
The family talked and laughed, making a campaign go smoothly.
Shi Baojin looked at it from the side, and couldn't help but compare the scene when she was recruited, and she was jealous and hateful in her heart.
Why are they making a levy more lively than the chapel, not only are the dowry complete, but the people are also here, unlike her, from the proposal to the present, she has not even seen the face of Zhao Liang, the second son of the Zhao family.
But even if Shi Baojin is resentful in her heart, it is useless, not to mention that she has no status at all in the big room, even in the third room, she has become an outcast, Zhou Ruyu doesn't take her in her eyes at all now, it's all about how Shi Baoyou is, it doesn't matter if she dies.
Shi Baojin hates!
She was unwilling to ruin her life like this, so when Shi Baoning was recruiting, she had the cheekiness to congratulate her, just to have a good relationship with Shi Baoning, who had the best temper - this was her only chance.
It's a pity that Shi Baojin is not a master who knows how to endure humiliation, not to mention that he can't stand the grievances, and the problem of Qingxue blowing up when he touches it only increases. Shi Qingxue was scolded by her as soon as she entered the house, and even if Shi Baoning was soft-hearted, it was impossible for her to be coaxed by her words.
What's more, there is also a Wenren who has fallen out with the mansion outside the big house.
is grateful to Shi Jun and his wife, and has responsibility to Shi Baoning, he can still stay as before, as for the others, how far and how far they go.
As soon as the gift of accepting the levy passed, Wen Renchi directly drove the 'irrelevant people' out of the East Garden, leaving no mercy at all.
"Brother Chi, will Sanfang and grandmother have an opinion in this way?" Although Shi Baoning didn't want those people to spoil the atmosphere, the resentful eyes of the people in the third room before going out made her very uneasy.
Wen Renchi knew Shi Baoning's feelings for Mo Shujun, and he didn't explain, "With me here, it's okay." ”
"But I'm worried about ......"
"Go in and stay with your mother." Wen Ren interrupted Shi Baoning's concerns with a faint smile, and pushed the person into the room.
Shi Baoning had no choice but to enter the house.
Shi Qingxue looked straight at the side, wondering, "Big brother, did you quarrel with your sister?" ”
Wen Ren paused and asked casually: "No, how can it be?" ”
But when Shi Qingxue saw that he didn't believe it, her face became even more ugly, and she almost said firmly: "You lied to me, there must be something." ”
She was anxious, and reached out to pull Wen Ren's sleeve, "Big brother, what's wrong with you?" ”
Wen Ren was amazed by Shi Qingxue's keenness - he didn't even say a few words, and the other party could guess his mind - but he couldn't explain, so he could only hold up a smile as much as possible, unable to argue: "I'm really fine......"
Shi Qingxue was even more unlikely to believe it, but looking at the reluctant smile on Wen Renchi's face, she felt uncomfortable again-Mo Junyu's words undoubtedly made her put her suspicious eyes on Wen Renchi-whether it was true or not, she couldn't deal with it calmly.
"Then, you ......" Shi Qingxue was speechless, but somewhere in her heart had an intuition that made her finally choose to ask directly: "Do you have a relationship with the third prince?" ”
is so straightforward, there is no room for tactfulness and detour, unless it is a lie.
However, in the face of Shi Qingxue's expectant and hopeful gaze......
"Yes." He couldn't lie, even if it might mess up his plans.
"The matter of Qingluo Mountain ......"
Wen Renchi confessed: "The person sent by my father to Fancheng for help was stopped by me, and the third prince wanted to kill him by the hands of mountain bandits. “
Shi Qingxue bit her lip and bled blood, so she restrained her trembling and asked, "Why?" ”
Wen Ren glanced at Qingxue quickly, the dazzling red made his heart ache, and he instinctively reached out to touch her lips, but she avoided it.
But Shi Qingxue didn't dodge, her bright eyes stared at him with accusations.
He hid the loss in his heart and replied lightly: "Revenge, revenge for killing my father." ”
"What?" Shi Qingxue's expression turned stunned, thinking that she had heard it wrong. But the burning eyes of the people told her that it was what she had guessed.
Qingxue was silent for a moment, raised her eyes, and was extremely firm, "Impossible, you must be mistaken." ”
Wen Renchi only thought that the other party couldn't take the truth, and shook his head with a wry smile, "Qingxue, this is my ...... with me"
He couldn't shout the word 'father', but he couldn't call out the word 'Shi Junhe' either.
"This is my enmity with your father, don't you care, okay?"
Even if he knew that it was impossible, Wen Renchi still hoped that Shi Qingxue would stay out of the matter.
"Impossible!" Shi Qingxue replied resolutely, shattering Wen Renchi's last bit of expectation.
Sure enough, he and she can only be enemies.
Wen Ren suppressed the bitterness in his heart, and emphasized in an almost cold tone: "It is impossible for me to give up revenge." ”
"Not necessarily." Shi Qingxue smiled, her attitude was so brisk that it didn't look like she was discussing hatred, but something irrelevant like Wen Ren's favorite food.
Wen Renzhi: "......"
This is so wrong, he almost thinks that Qingxue is mad by him.
Shi Qingxue said again: "I'm not crazy. ”
All right.
Wen Renchi knew that he had nowhere to hide in front of this person, so he only said tiredly: "Although I'm sorry, my father is sorry." ”
"I didn't say I wouldn't let you get revenge!" Shi Qingxue replied as a matter of course, which made Wen Renchi feel that the other party supported him to take revenge on Shi Junhe.
But this is only a fantasy.
He looked at Qingxue with an obscure expression, "Don't make trouble, okay?" ”
If Shi Qingxue continued to say this, he was afraid that he would really not be able to persevere.
"Big brother, I didn't make trouble." Shi Qingxue realized that Wen Renchi's attitude was very wrong, and replied with a straight face.
She tentatively took the other party's hand, held it tightly, and whispered when she heard the people looking over: "What I just said is sincere, but ...... Big brother, are you really so sure that Daddy killed Uncle Wenren? ”
Hearing people's blazing breath, it should obviously be something with conclusive evidence, because of Shi Qingxue's question, he hesitated again.
It wasn't so much uncertainty as the last bit of hope in his heart.
Or maybe not?
Shi Qingxue also grasped this point, and asked anxiously: "Can you tell me what happened?" Whatever the truth is, I should have the right to know the truth, right? ”
Wen Ren suppressed his throat and said in a deep voice: "Sixteen years ago, there was a war on the border of Mo, Liang, and Zhao, and my father and your father led the Shijia army to fight against Liang and finally returned victorious, do you know?" ”
Shi Qingxue nodded again and again, "Of course I know that in that battle, the family army defeated Liangguo, drove the enemy out of the border, and did not dare to commit it again for more than ten years, this war grandfather has told me many times, I ......"
Suddenly remembering something, her excited mood changed to cautious, "Uncle Wenren seems to have ...... in that war"
"Yes, my father died in that war, but not because he died in honorable battles, but because the rescue was not timely, he was trapped alive." Mentioning Wen Renbo again, Wen Renbo's eyes were full of hatred, as if he had witnessed Wen Renbo's humiliation and pain.
Shi Qingxue glanced at him cautiously and asked suspiciously, "What's the matter with this Daddy?" ”
Wen Ren burst into a slightly cold smile, and Yin Yin spoke: "It is precisely because your father wants to seize control of the Shi family army that he deliberately delayed the rescue time and killed my father!" ”
"No way, you must be mistaken." Shi Qingxue shouted in shock, completely unable to believe the other party's so-called truth.
Wen Renchi expected her reaction early, and said lightly: "Okay, after listening to the story you want to hear, you can go back!" ”
Shi Qingxue's eyes widened, unable to accept that the other party suddenly stopped talking, "No, there must be a misunderstanding here." There must be somewhere ......."
"Enough!" Wen Renblaze almost rudely interrupted Shi Qingxue's fantasy.
He covered the bitterness in his heart with a sneer, isolated the emotions in his heart with indifference, and ruthlessly expelled Shi Qingxue: "I don't care if you have any unrealistic thoughts in your heart, or how you plan to deal with me after you know this matter, in short, I will not give up the idea of revenge." ”
Bringing up 'revenge' again, Wen Ren is only to strengthen his heart.
Who would have thought that after Shi Qingxue listened to his words, she didn't have the shock and panic of Chu Chu, calmly and insistently took his hand, and said word by word: "I really don't believe that Daddy would do that kind of thing."
So, regardless of the truth of the matter, we should at least find out first, right? ”
Wen Ren's brows furrowed so high that he couldn't bear to shake off Qingxue's hand, so he only asked unhappily: "How else do you want to find out." ”
"At least, you won't find out until you confront Daddy, right?"
Shi Qingxue smiled at Wen Ren, and directly pulled the person to Shi Junhe's study.
