Chapter 82: Requests

Looking at Miao Susu's pleading gaze, Xin Yu wanted to tell her that Miss Kou, who lost her parents, was actually miserable, and she was also miserable when she lost her favorite mother.

She is no longer the carefree little girl who plays around, she is the "cousin" of Shaoqing Mansion, the owner of Qingsong Bookstore, but she can't go back to Xinyu.

"Has my aunt asked for a doctor? There should be a lot of famous doctors in the capitalβ€”"

Miao Susu smiled bitterly: "I know my body, and the miscarriage just spends everything up." Miss Kou, can you promise me? ”

From the long journey at the beginning of the year, the nights when she felt guilty and insomnia for killing Queen Xin, she was afraid of killing her husband, afraid that others would find out the cause of her husband's death, and found that she had seen the wrong person's depression after more than ten years of marriage, and all kinds of emotions had already overwhelmed her until she was pushed to have a miscarriage.

The body and mind were severely damaged, the oil ran out, and she was unwilling, and she couldn't let go of her daughter, so she could only accept her fate.

She knew that the eldest sister would be good to her daughter for the sake of her younger brother, but in case, if her daughter didn't keep a secret, or other accidents, let the eldest sister know that Zhou Tong was killed by her, and the eldest aunt who loves her brother like her life is afraid that she will transfer her hatred to Yue'er.

Miss Kou is by no means an ordinary person, she wants to seek as much protection as possible for her daughter.

Xin Yu hesitated for a moment, but still nodded: "I will take care of Sister Zhou within my ability." ”

Miao Susu breathed a sigh of relief and struggled to thank him.

"Auntie, don't move, take a good rest."

The two of them talked about everything, Xin Yu said goodbye, and Miao Susu called Zhou Ningyue.

"Yue'er, send Miss Kou for your mother."

Zhou Ningyue walked out of the house with Xin Yu.

"Sister Zhou, don't send it, go back and take good care of your aunt."

"Sister Kouβ€”" Zhou Ningyue shouted.

Xinyu looked at her.

Zhou Ningyue's lips moved, but in the end, she only said a slow walk.

When she turned around and walked towards the deserted door, Zhou Ningyue wiped her eyes.

She really wanted to ask what Sister Kou talked about with her mother, but since her mother didn't let her know, she didn't ask. As long as my mother gets better quickly, she will listen to her mother for everything.

The autumn is crisp and crisp, and the streets are full of people, which is completely different from the bleakness of the Zhou family.

Xin Yu raised his head, glanced at the blue sky and white clouds, and strode in the direction of Qingsong Bookstore.

Men, women and children, vendors and pedestrians, and countless people passing by, Xin Yu suddenly felt that something was wrong.

It seems that someone is following.

She turned a corner, stopped against the wall, and soon saw He Qingxiao coming over.

He Qingxiao had no surprise on his face and stood still in front of Xin Yu.

"Lord He is following me?"

He Qingxiao looked at the girl who was calmly asking questions, and said calmly: "Sort of." ”

Let his subordinates investigate Zhou Tong and his wife, but the more they investigate, the more interesting it becomes.

Zhou Tong's experience was unremarkable at first glance, he lost his parents early and was taken care of by his eldest sister, first on an errand in the capital, and then transferred to Wanyang, and did not return to the capital until the beginning of the year.

Zhou's wife, Miao, was actually a former court maid.

A Jin Linwei, a former court maid, such a couple has lived in peace for more than ten years, and the reason why Miss Kou is close can only be Wanyang.

What happened there in Wanyang?

Miss Kou killed him and approached Zhou Tong's family, is it really because of her father?

But how did she, a little girl who was only twelve years old when her father had an accident, decide that her father's death was not simple, and confirm the enemy?

He, the "enemy", is also looking for the wrong one.

No matter how He Qingxiao analyzed, he felt that it was illogical to use Kou Qingqing's experience to do what he is doing now, but this is the truth.

In today's meeting, he went to the bookstore to talk to Miss Kou, and then saw her go to Zhou's house again.

"It's not far from the bookstore, do you want to have a cup of tea?"

He Qingxiao raised her eyebrows unexpectedly.

He thought his answer would anger her, but he didn't expect to invite him to tea.

Should you poison the tea?

Looking at the girl with a faint expression, He Qingxiao thought silently.

"Okay."

The two didn't speak again, and walked side by side to the Green Pine Bookstore.

With the launch of "Painted Skin", Qingsong Bookstore is no longer a door, there are always guests coming in and out at this time of the day, Xin Yu took He Qingxiao directly to the corner gate leading to the east courtyard.

He Qingxiao hesitated slightly, then looked at Xin Yu's indifferent appearance, and walked in silently.

The stone tables and stone benches in the courtyard are very bright.

The two sat opposite each other, Xiaolian brought tea, and retreated to the distance to stand.

"Lord He, please have tea."

Goodbye He Qingxiao, Xin Yu couldn't figure out what mood he was for a while, if he had to say it, it might be apologetic.

Judging from the secrecy that Miao Susu revealed, He Qingxiao didn't know what Zhou Tong did, and she almost injured innocent people.

It was also because of this mood that she didn't feel annoyed when she found that He Qingxiao was following.

It was she who provoked others first, and how could she blame others for targeting her.

Looking at the tea handed over by the girl with a smile, He Qingxiao was silent.

Even if you want his life, you won't be so blatant.

Thinking like this, He Qingxiao thanked him, took the tea and took a sip.

Xin Yu's apologetic words came to his lips and he swallowed again.

"Why is Lord He following me?"

He Qingxiao held the teacup for a moment and put it down.

"Miss Kou suspects that Ling Zun's death is not an accident?"

When I came to Miss Kou today, he just wanted to talk straight to the point. He really didn't want to see people like Miss Kou with more and more blood on their hands and go to the point of no return.

The pomelo was taken aback.

Didn't Kou Qingqing's father die in an accident?

She still remembered that Xiaolian said that Kou's father fell into the river and died on the way to transfer, and he didn't even find his body.

Wait a minute, why did He Qingxiao link her assassination of him to the death of Kou Qingqing's father?

"Why does Lord He ask that?"

Xin Yu's evasion and non-answer couldn't be expected by He Qingxiao.

He decided to be more frank: "I have arranged for someone to go south to investigate Ling Zun's matter, Miss Kou might as well wait patiently for the result." ”

Xin Yu couldn't hold his composure: "Lord He sent someone to the south?" ”

Where to the south? Wanyang?

"Well, I sent someone to Wanyang."

Xin Yu: "......" Lord He really didn't "live up" to her guess.

"Jin Linwei is quite good at doing these things, although he may not be able to find out anything, but it should be better than Miss Kou acting alone in the capital."

Xin Yu didn't know what to say for a while.

Although He Qingxiao's misunderstanding is a bit big, this misunderstanding doesn't seem to hurt much......

"Can Miss Kou stop for the time being?"

Xin Yu still felt that something was wrong: "Didn't Lord He say it a long time ago, I can't help you." ”

What does it mean to persuade her to stop again?

Xin Yu had a flash of inspiration and had a guess: "Lord He suspects that Zhou Tong's death is related to me?" ”

He Qingxiao's silence gave her an answer.

Xin Yu was also silent for a while, and Zhengse asked, "In that case, why didn't Lord He arrest me?" ”
