Chapter 90: Death Without Turning a Blind Eye

Wu'er had been hiding behind the bookshelf for a long time, and his hands and feet were a little numb, but he was even more afraid of being scolded by his mother, so he still looked at the second young lady from the cracks, hoping that she would leave after crying.

He thought that the second young lady must have encountered something very sad, otherwise he wouldn't have cried so much that his eyes were red, and his eyes stayed on the small bottle, could it be that the second young lady was crying so much that she wanted to drink some water, but this bottle was too small, not enough for him to take a sip.

The second young lady uncovered the teapot on the desk, the cap of the small bottle had been opened, but she stared at the teapot motionlessly, after a long time, her fingers loosened, and the liquid in the small bottle mixed into the teapot, she quickly closed the lid again, and took out a piece of Luopa to wipe her face clean, and soon, the tears on her face disappeared cleanly, and she couldn't see that she had cried bitterly.

Wen Wu'er saw her stand up and was going to open the door, and secretly happy, but she didn't expect her to leave, but the second young master came again, the second young master was holding a sword in his hand, and it was clear that he had just come back from practicing swords, Wu'er had grown up in He's family since he was a child, and knew everyone's habits, the second young master closed the door with his backhand, and whispered a few words to the second young lady.

The second young lady smiled very reluctantly, took the second young master's hand, walked to the table, poured two cups of tea, one for him, and one in her own hand, Wen Wu'er looked at this scene, and suddenly wanted to shout, there was something else in the tea, but I didn't expect that the second young lady drank the tea first, and the second young master obviously had a dry mouth after practicing the sword, and then drank it in a big gulp.

The two of them whispered for a while, and suddenly the voice of the second young master sounded, the second young lady staggered to stand up, took two steps back, the second young master suddenly raised the long sword in his hand, aimed at the second lady's chest, the second lady did not dodge, smiled faintly and closed her eyes.

Seeing that the sword blade was about to fall, Wen Wu'er couldn't help but pounce out, and shouted, "Second Young Master, don't hurt Second Young Lady." ”

The second young master was surprised that there was a third person in the study, and turned his head quickly, Wen Wu'er screamed in horror, and the second young master's eyes, nose, and mouth had thin blood lines flowing endlessly.

The second young lady wanted to take the long sword in the second young master's hand, but he refused, Wen Wu'er hadn't reacted yet, she had already pulled out a sharp hairpin from her bun and stabbed it at his face.

Wen Wu'er screamed and dodged, the situation of the second young lady was exactly the same as that of the second young master, it was also bleeding from the seven orifices, flowing more and faster, a face was covered with blood, it was like a ghost, the second young master blocked it with a long arrow, and it suddenly became noisy outside, he quickly glanced at the second young lady, and the last words he said to Wu'er were: "Run, you run away." ”

Wen Wu'er's heart was about to jump out of his mouth, he stumbled and ran to the stove room, and fell a few times in the middle, but fortunately he was familiar with the layout of the house, and he had already touched the door of the stove room, and when his mother saw him, all kinds of screams behind him were closer and sharper, as if there was a ghost chasing him and refused to let go.

Mother's face is very scary, when he thought that his mother raised his hand to slap him, his back tightened, but the whole person was dragged in front of the stove, his mother pushed one side of the stove away, and stuffed his whole person inside, he thought he would be burned by the fire, but found that his body was just slightly hot ashes, and then his body was heavy, his eyes were dark, and the whole person fell down and fell into a boxy box.

"Wu'er, if your mother doesn't call you out, you won't be allowed to come out, you won't be allowed to talk or cry, do you hear it!" Mother's voice was very hoarse, he didn't hear it too clearly, but he knew that his mother was crying, for example, the second young lady was crying even more sad and sad, he wanted to say, mother, he would be obedient and obedient, and he would not go to the study to be naughty, and he would not make the second young lady and the second young master unhappy, and he opened his mouth to find that when he came in just now, the ashes filled his mouth, and he couldn't make a sound at all.

He heard many, many strange sounds, some of them human, some of them not, and he tried desperately to cover his ears with his hands, not wanting to listen to these frightening movements anymore, but even if he pierced his ears with his fingers, he could still hear them, and after a long time, he was so tired that he fell asleep in a pile of ashes.

When he woke up again, it was very quiet, the sounds that made him uncomfortable and uncomfortable were all gone, and the surroundings were so quiet that it seemed that he was the only one left, he wanted to call out to his mother to take him out, but when he thought of his wife's words, he had to stay obediently, if his mother didn't shout, he couldn't go out, he couldn't talk or cry, his hand touched a few bowls, which contained food that had been stored at some point, mixed with ashes, and couldn't eat good or bad, he grabbed it with his hand, and stuffed it into his mouth little by little, until he was not hungry, It wasn't until he waited in the dark that he fell asleep again, and the cycle went on and on, in that small confined space, until someone pried open the iron plate that covered the hiding place with a shovel, and he was able to see the light again.

"Sister, I don't want to go back to that dark place, I don't want to go back again." After Wen Wu'er told them all the passages he remembered, he suddenly stretched out his little arms and hugged Sun Shining tightly, he couldn't help but tremble all over, in the dark, he couldn't see anything, he didn't know if it was day or night, he couldn't hear anything, he didn't know when his mother would call him out, he forced himself to open his eyes wide and prick up his ears, but in exchange for the process of being almost disappointed to despair again and again.

Sun Shining saw that Shen Nianyi's face was also full of surprise, probably because he didn't expect the He family to be a thief at the most critical time, no wonder the person who is said to have the best martial arts was killed before he had time to make a move, but why did the second young lady poison her husband, listening to Wen Wu'er's description, the second young master had clearly sensed that something was wrong, and the second lady even wanted to kill Wu'er to extinguish her mouth, it was really ridiculous, and the stall that was about to be destroyed also needed to block a child's mouth.

Is this second young lady too naΓ―ve, or is there more hidden secrets hidden during the period?

Shen Nianyi immediately made a decision, summoned Qiu Cheng, and asked him to immediately check the origin of the second young lady of the He family, using various methods and channels, it must be found clearly, Qiu Cheng took the order and left, Wen Wu'er still held Sun Shining and refused to let go.

Sun Shining divided the white porridge sent into a small bowl, the rice fragrance melted lightly, she didn't break Wen Wu'er's hand, and asked gently, "Do you want to eat some of this?" ”

Wen Wu'er thought about it, but shook her head: "If I let go, my sister won't want me." ”

"No, I'll feed you." Sun Shining dialed some of the hibiscus chicken slices and fungus fried mushrooms, "You come and try it, the taste is very good, the chicken slices are tender, I guarantee that you still want to eat after eating a bite." ”

Wen Wu'er relaxed one hand, and ate a few bites of the spoon in Sun Shining's hand, and the other hand was willing to slowly let go, Sun Shining just didn't notice it, and continued to concentrate on feeding, Shen Nianyi stood next to her, and saw that every time the spoon in her hand touched Wu'er's mouth, her lips would also open slightly, making a mouth shape, looking at it, he was also hungry, so he filled a bowl of porridge by himself, and sat next to them to eat it.

After Wen Wu'er finished eating, he came to push Sun Shining's hand: "Sister also eats, the porridge is fragrant, and the dishes are delicious." ”

Sun Shining smiled, this child was so clingy to her for the rest of his life, even Shitian had never been so sticky to her sister, not only did she not feel troublesome, but she felt more pity in her heart, this was the child that his mother exchanged for her life, but he only thought that his mother was to punish him, so he locked him in the hearth, and he didn't know his good intentions, the poor woman at that time, I was afraid that she would have to hold back her tears, pretending not to know anything, and not let the murderer who rushed in see the slightest difference.

Qi Qizuo said that the cook was finally killed on the stove, probably not blind, she was afraid, afraid that the hidden child would not be able to escape this catastrophe, and wanted to use the last bit of strength, with her own corpse to make the best cover for the child, her corpse on the stove little by little stiff, no one will suspect that the hearth under the stove will have any abnormality.

Wen Wu'er watched Sun Shining finish eating, and then let out a long yawn with confidence, and had to pull the corner of her clothes before she was willing to go to bed to sleep, where would Sun Shining refuse, sat at the head of the bed, patted his back a few times through the quilt, he turned over and fell asleep.

"What he said is true?" After spending a few days in the dark, will a child of this age be able to tell the difference between a real and a nightmare?

"Do you think it's possible for him to make up a story like this himself?" Shen Nianyi put down his chopsticks and looked at her and asked rhetorically.

"What's going on with that hearth, could it be that his mother had expected something to happen to the He family?" Anyway, there will be no mechanism hidden under the Sun family's stove.

"Perhaps, everyone in the He family knows more or less." Shen Nianyi stood up and walked to the window, when He Qihu proposed to the emperor to resign and return home, it was also a little sudden, although the age was placed there, but there were still a few officials in the court who were older than him, not to mention that he was very much used by the emperor, and he used the reason of telling the old man to return to his hometown, obviously he could not convince the emperor, could it be that there was an unknown reason between the monarch and the ministers that day.

"However, I still haven't been able to hide from it." Sun Shining sighed lightly and tucked the quilt for Wen Wu'er, "There is one thing I don't understand. ”

"You say."

"Wu'er is just the son of the cook, and his age is so young, it's too easy for people to be negligent, why would the murderer know that he has slipped through the net, and in a pile of corpses, what makes the other party still do everything possible to hunt him down." Sun Shining's speed of speech was very urgent, just like her mood, "Although he saw the process of the second young lady poisoning her husband, how did others know that he secretly saw it, there were more than three people in the study, definitely more than that!" ”
