Zhou Ningyue was going to the East House, but as soon as she entered the hall, she heard screams.

It was a male voice coming from the Westinghouse.

Zhou Ningyue rushed directly to the Westinghouse and pushed the door open.

Inside the house, Zhou's mother held a dagger in one hand and looked at her daughter blankly.

The dagger was dripping with blood, and Zhou's father fell to the ground struggling, and there was still breath.

It was also because of this that he looked more and more terrifying, staring at Zhou Ningyue who suddenly appeared with a distorted face, and stretched out his hand to her.

Zhou Ningyue didn't even scream, her eyes rolled and she fell softly.

Xin Yu followed behind Zhou Ningyue and helped her in time.

There was a clang, and the dagger in Zhou's mother's hand fell to the ground.

"Yue'er!" Zhou's mother rushed to her daughter and stretched out her hand to help, but the blood on her hand made her pause suddenly.

It was her husband's blood.

Xu is nature is calmer than ordinary women, or in front of her daughter inspired the strength of motherhood, Zhou's mother was surprised by Xin Yu and was not particularly flustered, and her eyes looked straight over.

"Miss Kou, why are you here?"

"Auntie, the courtyard door is not locked."

Mother Zhou was stunned for a moment, rubbed her hands on her clothes, and walked out quickly.

Xin Yu helped Zhou Ningyue, who had fainted, and looked down at Zhou Tong who was lying on the ground.

Zhou Tong was no longer moving, his eyes were wide open and full of unwillingness, obviously not expecting that he would die at the hands of a weak woman.

This is the opposite of what is in the picture, and Xinyu is surprised by this ending, but not so much.

Perhaps when she deliberately reminded Zhou's mother, she had subconsciously been mentally prepared for different results.

Men are physically stronger than women, but one is defenseless, the other is wary, and the opposite can be the opposite.

Xin Yu looked around at the Westinghouse, which was arranged as a study. There are a lot of books on the shelves against the wall, and there are some books, papers, pens and ink on the desk, which is a very ordinary-looking study.

There must be a reason for the dispute between Zhou's mother and Zhou's father to take place here, not in the east house where they live.

Why?

Without time to think about it, Zhou's mother came back.

"What is Miss Kou looking at?"

Xin Yu heard the coldness in Zhou's mother's voice, and it was not surprising that he was about it.

Her appearance was indeed too coincidental in the eyes of the other party, so clever that it aroused suspicion.

"Auntie, do you want to help Sister Zhou to the east house kang first, so that she won't wake up and be frightened."

Mother Zhou immediately put all kinds of emotions behind, and helped Zhou Ningyue to the east room with Xin Yu to lie down, standing in the hall separated from the west house, her face became solemn and pale.

"Miss Kou, why are you with Yue'er?"

Xin Yu replied calmly: "I left my aunt's house that day, and I heard Sister Ji mention that there is a dim sum shop nearby that the pastries taste very good, and there are meat moon cakes for sale, thinking that tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival, so I came over in advance to buy some filial piety to the elders, but I didn't expect to meet Sister Zhou." ”

Speaking of this, Xin Yu glanced at the door of the West House and said calmly: "As for coming to my aunt's house, it was my sister who looked at Zhou's face and found that her parents were in danger, so I didn't worry about it, so I came with her." ”

When Zhou's mother heard this, she didn't say that she believed it, nor did she say that she didn't believe it, and asked after a long silence: "Miss Kou also saw the scene in the Westinghouse, what are you going to do?" ”

"What are Auntie's plans?" Xin Yu asked rhetorically.

Zhou's mother looked cold and said truthfully: "I don't want to be charged with killing my husband." It doesn't matter if I live or die, but Yue'er can't have a mother who killed her husband, otherwise her life will be ruined. I beg Miss Kou to raise her noble hand, as if she hasn't been here today. ”

Mother Zhou said and knelt down heavily.

Xin Yu stood quietly and lowered her eyes for a moment to look at the woman kneeling in front of her.

"I wonder why it's different."

Mother Zhou didn't react for a while, and her face was puzzled.

Xin Yu said word for word: "Looking at my aunt's face before, it should have been you who had an accident." ”

Mother Zhou trembled, her expression kept changing, and she was silent for a while before she said, "Miss Kou is not mistaken, it should have been me who had the accident." I was looking for him for a reason, and suddenly remembered Miss Kou's words, and the ghost sent the god to carry the dagger with him, but during the argument, he strangled my neck, and when I struggled desperately, somehow-"

"Mother-" Suddenly a voice came, Zhou Ningyue held on to the door frame, her face was as white as snow, "What's the matter?" What will make Dad kill you, and let you kill Dad when you resist? ”

She let go of her grip on the doorframe and walked over step by step, looking like she was about to fall at any moment.

"Mother, what the hell is going on!" Zhou Ningyue pounced on Zhou's mother and shook her arm vigorously.

Mother Zhou raised her hand and touched Zhou Ningyue's hair, touched the blood on her hand, and withdrew her hand like a pinprick.

"Yue'er, don't ask, it's an adult's business-"

"Mother, it's all like this, and you still say it's an adult's business?" Zhou Ningyue's voice rose, and tears fell, "Dad is dead, I don't have a dad anymore!" ”

These words were like a heavy hammer, smashing Zhou's mother's heart.

Mother Zhou's face looked even paler, and her hands trembled uncontrollably: "It should be me who died......"

"Mother, I don't blame you, I just want to know why!" Zhou Ningyue hugged Zhou's mother and cried.

For this little girl with a simple experience, her mother, who gets along with her day and night, is much closer than her father, who goes out early and returns late, and even often never sees each other.

All are important, but when it comes to certain times when you have to choose, there is always one that is more important.

"Yue'er, it's enough for you to know what your father did wrong. It's not that my mother doesn't want to tell you, it's that she can't tell you. Of course, you should blame your mother, my mother just hopes that you can ...... well" Zhou's mother choked, but she never shed tears.

Zhou Ningyue shook her head, her expression was confused: "I don't understand......"

Mother Zhou looked at Xin Yu: "Miss Kou, can you keep the secret for our mother and daughter?" ”

"Aunt thinks she can hide the news of her husband's death?"

Mother Zhou subconsciously glanced at her daughter and said softly: "I can't hide the news of death, it's enough to hide the cause of death." Our family had only come from out of town, and we didn't have much contact with our neighbors, and his colleagues had only known each other for a short time, but—"

Zhou's mother paused for a moment and didn't continue.

Zhou Ningyue had already reacted, covered her mouth and cried: "What should my aunt do if she knows?" ”

Ji Cailan's mother is Zhou Tong's own sister.

"Wait...... When it was cleaned up, it was reported that it was a sudden illness and died......" Zhou's mother said the arrangement to her daughter with difficulty, and looked at Xin Yu with begging eyes.

Xin Yu looked at the woman whose clothes were splattered with her husband's blood, and a doubt rose in her heart.

Can an ordinary woman be so calm after accidentally killing her husband?

Or is Zhou's mother's origin not simple?

Wait, Zhou's mother can recognize her mother as the queen of the dynasty who has been missing for more than ten years, and it is impossible for her to be an ordinary woman.

Who is Mother Zhou?

Xin Yu had exploration in his eyes and looked at Zhou's mother.
