Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Year

That's a bit of a sound.

Xiahou Yu glanced at Yan with a smile and said, "What does Mrs. Chen mean?" ”

Yan said solemnly: "I hope that what we say will not reach the ears of the third person. Especially sister-in-law! ”

In other words, it is necessary to hide it from the Wu family.

She asked Yan out alone, isn't this still obvious?

Xiahou Yu found out that the Wu family didn't know anything as early as when he was investigating the cause of Xiao Yan's death.

"Don't worry." She said lightly, "I don't want to make Ah Jia sad or make her unhappy." ”

Yan insisted that Xiahou Yu swear: "Otherwise, I don't want to say another word no matter what." ”

Xiahou Yu smiled: "Don't care about Xiao Fei and Xiao Mei?" ”

Yan sneered: "Everyone has their own life. I want to save them, and I want to save them, but I can't make a choice for them. ”

Xiahou Yu immediately admired Yan's family.

She swore an oath: "...... If I let my family know, I am willing to accept any punishment. ”

Yan breathed a sigh of relief.

Xiahou Yu is the eldest princess after all, if Xiahou Yu insists on refusing, she actually has no good way. Now that Xiahou Yu can take a step back, she can't tell the truth.

Moreover, this matter has been on her mind for too long, and she needs to talk to someone so as not to drive herself crazy.

Thinking of this, she hid her face and cried bitterly.

Such grievances, such sadness, made Xiahou Yu very surprised.

She waited quietly for Yan to calm down and handed over a handkerchief.

Yan choked up and thanked Xiahou Yu, took the handkerchief, wiped his face wet with tears, and whispered, "Let you see you laugh!" ”

Xiahou Yu shook his head and said softly: "I called the maid you accompanied to serve you to freshen up, right?" ”

"No need!" Yan said, "I only brought a coachman and a grandmother here, and it will be inconvenient if there are too many people." ”

Xiahou Yu went to ask Ah Liang to fetch water and come in, serve Yan, clean his face again, and tidy up his clothes.

Yan looked much calmer.

When Xiahou Yu sent the people serving around her, she drank a few sips of hot tea, pondered for a long time, and then said in a low voice: "The eldest brother killed Xiao Chung, was discovered by Xiao Xun, and united with the elders of the family to force the eldest brother to death." ”

Although it was similar to what Xiahou Yu expected, the moment it was confirmed in Yan's mouth, Xiahou Yu was still stunned.

Yan Shi looked bitter and said, "The eldest princess should also be suspicious, right?" Otherwise, you wouldn't have thought of a way to ask me to come to Meiying Nunnery to meet, right? ”

Xiahou Yu nodded.

Yan knew what she wanted to know, but she still looked up at her seriously for a long time, thinking of the mother-daughter intimacy between her and Wu when they were together, so she said softly: "Xiao Chung has coveted her sister-in-law many times. There is only a thousand days to be a thief, and there is no way to prevent a thief for a thousand days. The eldest brother decided to kill him. ”

Xiahou Yu thought of thousands of reasons.

For example, the two had a conflict of interests, and Xiao Yan killed someone by mistake.

Or maybe Xiao Yan had something to hurt the interests of the Xiao family, and Xiao Yan was pinched by Xiao Song, and Xiao Yan designed to remove Xiao Song.

But she never dreamed that it was Xiao Chung who coveted the Wu family.

If this spreads, the brother robs a woman, no matter what the reason is, no matter who is right or wrong, the reputation of the Xiao family, including Xiao Yan's, Xiao Huan's, Xiao Xing's, Xiao Fei's, and Xiao Mei's, will all be over.

Especially the Wu family.

Everywhere he goes, he is pointed at and doesn't say anything, and he may only be able to show his innocence by dying.

There is no way to prove his innocence even by dying.

If you die, you will be infamy.

Xiahou Yu gasped, and his hand holding the teacup trembled.

Xiao Yan decided to kill Xiao Song!

Instead of killing Xiao Chung in one go!

So after Xiao Chung died, Xiao Yan didn't even agree to bury him in the ancestral grave.

Therefore, after Xiao Yan killed Xiao Song, he could only apologize with death.

Because he had no way to explain to the Xiao family's clansmen, why did he kill Xiao Song!

So does Xiao Huan know the real reason why Xiao Yan killed Xiao Song?

In the silent room, the faint sound of the tea lid and the tea cup hitting porcelain is clearly visible.

Xiahou Yu's heart was like frying in an oil pan.

From the relationship between Xiao Huan and the Xiao family in her previous life, she couldn't see Xiao Huan's attitude clearly at all.

Yan's hanging heart really fell to the ground.

As the eldest princess, knowing that reverence is a good thing.

I won't just say it.

can help keep this matter a secret.

In this way, the Wu family will never know the cause of Xiao Yan's death!

Her eyes were moist again.

"I don't know if the eldest princess has found out," she muttered, "Sister-in-law, she is seven or eight years younger than the eldest brother, and she is the same year as Xiao Song." Wuzhong's old surname, there are only a few that come and go. Sister-in-law's aunt is an old acquaintance with the Xiao family, and she will bring her sister-in-law to visit the Xiao family during the New Year's holidays. After coming and going, the three Xiao brothers all knew their sister-in-law. According to the meaning of the adult, he wanted to marry his sister-in-law to Xiao Song. But the eldest brother has liked his sister-in-law since he was a child, and he has always refused to engage with other girls, waiting for his sister-in-law to grow up. ”

"When my sister-in-law grows up, I also like my eldest brother."

"My lord saw that this was not a problem, so he agreed to this family business."

Xiahou Yu didn't care about this, she said: "The governor was once called home by my lord, is it just to deal with this matter?" ”

"Of course!" Yan stopped the topic and said, "You have also seen the appearance of my sister-in-law, she grew up in the hands of her eldest brother since she was a child. Not a man who can be a member of the board. Even if there is no shouting from Xiao Xi, the eldest brother will give the Xiao family an explanation. What's more, Xiao Xi deliberately wanted to put his eldest brother to death, how could he let his eldest brother go? The eldest brother knew that his life was short, and he would definitely summon Ah Huan back - Ah Huan was the heir he had carefully cultivated! ”

Xiahou Yu was stunned and said, "Then does Xiao Xi know why our family father wanted to kill Xiao Song?" ”

Yan smiled, his smile full of undisguised sarcasm: "Even I know it, how can he not know?" ”

Xiahou Yu thought of Yan's two children.

Yan Shi sneered: "That's why I can't hand over the child to him to raise." He could only teach two children to hate. But it was their father who was wrong, what position did they have, and why did they hate their eldest uncle? Hate their big brother? Having said that, thinking that her two children didn't know why they were pinched by Xiao Xi, she didn't know right from wrong, but she didn't say anything that was unreasonable enough, she was so angry that tears fell again, "He's a scumbag!" Knowing that I can't explain the truth to the two children, he coerced me with this, and I didn't want him to get his way! ”

In the end, it was two children who didn't know anything.

But Xiahou Yu felt that Yan had done the right thing.

If even she doesn't want to climb out of this swamp, how can she save people?

She couldn't help but say, "That's exactly how it should be." You are in the Xiao family, and you are just watching the two children and Du Du go farther and farther away. ”

Yan looked at Xiahou Yu in astonishment.

No one, including her mother's brothers and sisters-in-law, ever thought she was doing the right thing.

They all felt that although Xiao Chung treated her badly before her death, now that Xiao Chung is gone, she should continue to stay in the Xiao family for the sake of the child.
