Is he teasing me

Chapter 397 I am also Zhang Shunqing's daughter

Xiao Weiji was like a frog that was suddenly illuminated by a flashlight in the middle of the night. He remained motionless with his head raised from his knees, staring at Xiao Xingyu with astonished eyes.

Although Xiao Xingyu's question was a question, his tone was very firm. He didn't even add "If I'm not mistaken" in front of his conclusion, which shows that he is very confident.

"I didn't, it wasn't me!" Xiao Weiji denied hastily after he came to his senses.

Xiao Weizhou didn't understand what was going on, but he absolutely believed in his son's intelligence, so he asked Xiao Xingyu: "Xingyu, how did you know that this letter was brought by Weiji?"

Xiao Xingyu flicked the envelope in his hand with his slender fingertips, turning it back and forth in front of everyone. "This envelope has the words 'From Mr. Xiao Guotao' written on it. I believe it must be Zhang Shunqing's handwriting. It has no postmark or address, so it has undoubtedly not been mailed. Grandpa just said that this letter appeared on his desk by itself, so we can be sure that someone must have put it on Grandpa's desk."

The eldest aunt was a little confused and said in confusion: "Of course it is! But the factory area twenty years ago was different from now. The entry and exit management was not so strict. Zhang Shunqing has worked in the factory for many years. It is not difficult for him to enter Dad's office without being noticed."

"Yes, that's right," Xiao Xingyu nodded to confirm his aunt's statement, "Anyone who is familiar with the layout of the factory can enter Grandpa's office when no one is paying attention. So this person must be Zhang Shunqing, right?"

The air was silent for a moment, and everyone's thoughts followed Xiao Xingyu's.

Xiao Xingyu pointed to a line of handwriting on the letter and said, "Everyone should have seen this content. Zhang Shunqing wrote that he would be dead when grandpa read this letter. Even a child like me knows what grandpa's style was like before he retired. He worked more than ten hours a day. If this letter was not sent by mail, but was delivered by Zhang Shunqing himself on the same day, then this letter would definitely be discovered by grandpa soon. Zhang Shunqing could not have failed to predict this, so he had to die quickly so that he would be dead when grandpa read the letter. So if he wanted to die quickly, he had to die in Ruzhou, but if he died in Ruzhou, it would definitely be big news. How could you not know anything about it and think he was missing for so many years?"

Zhang Moyan stared at Xiao Xingyu standing in front of her. The sunlight shone through the old window sills, illuminating his tall figure. Looking at the man who stood up for her, her eyes were blurred by the tears. Suddenly, she realized that she was no longer alone. She didn't know when Xiao Xingyu had been standing by her side, facing this bizarre and rugged fate with her.

Everyone listened to Xiao Xingyu's analysis and gradually figured it out. They all showed belated expressions. Xiao Huai also had to agree: "Zhang Shunqing couldn't be so hasty."

Xiao Guotao, who had been silent for a long time, also said slowly: "I have never thought about this. I have kept this letter for so many years in vain!...Xing Yu's reasoning is good. Since I received Shunqing's last letter, I have paid special attention to local news and even went to surrounding counties and towns to inquire whether anyone has committed suicide. There is no news."

Xiao Xingyu concluded: "So, Zhang Shunqing must have left the suicide note in a place other than Xiao Sheng, and he was very sure that someone would find the letter after some time. He even believed that this person would help him deliver the letter to grandfather, and even if he read the contents of the letter, he would never leak it to others."

When Xiao Xingyu said this, his eyes gradually turned to Xiao Weiji who was trembling on the ground. He walked closer to the latter step by step: "This person is most likely a colleague who used to work with him. This explains why you, Uncle Weiji, knew the contents of Zhang Shunqing's suicide note. Then, more than 20 years later, you accidentally leaked the contents of the suicide note to your son and daughter-in-law on a certain occasion. Influenced by Zhang Shunqing's emotions in the letter, your family hated Chen Yun very much. Am I right, Uncle Weiji?"

  The moment Xiao Xingyu's shiny black leather shoes pressed against Xiao Weiji's eyelids, Xiao Weiji suddenly jumped up, pushed Xiao Xingyu away, turned around and ran towards the door without caring about anything!

There was an uproar in the main room. Xiao Xingyu had not expected this. When he reacted, Xiao Weiji had already run out of the courtyard like a desperate criminal.

Just as he was about to run after him, he saw from afar Xiao Yanzhen and Dai Xuan coming towards the main hall and about to bump into Xiao Weiji. He hurriedly shouted loudly: "Xiao Yanzhen, stop Uncle Weiji and bring him to me!" Hearing this shout, all the men and women in the Xiao family frowned and looked at Xiao Xingyu in unison, calling the oldest elder in the family by his name, and in this tone. The Xiao family has not produced such a bad son who does not distinguish between the old and the young in 800 years.

However, the elders really listened to him. A man and a woman immediately performed mixed doubles like an eagle catching chickens to catch Xiao Weiji, especially the young and beautiful grandmother Taizu who was dressed in red. Her fighting power was off the charts even when she dragged and pulled.

Xiao Weizhou's three brothers immediately stepped forward to persuade Xiao Weiji, appealing to his emotions and reasoning with him. After a long and earnest speech, they finally brought Xiao Weiji back to the main room.

"Why are you running?" Xiao Xingyu said to Xiao Weiji, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

Xiao Weiji glanced at Xiao Xingyu timidly, then immediately turned away and said stiffly and stubbornly: "I sent the letter, I admit it! You have all read the contents of the letter. Chen Yun deliberately came to our Xiao family for the Tianqing glazed porcelain. She killed Uncle Guoxi! This is what Shunqing wrote. I have nothing to say!"

"Is it really you..." Xiao Guotao asked hurriedly and earnestly, "When you delivered the letter, was Shunqing really...really gone? Have you seen him?"

Xiao Weiji avoided Xiao Guotao's gaze, as if he had made up his mind not to say anything, like a stubborn donkey: "It's been so long since the incident happened, why do you still mention it! Does it have any impact on everyone now? Don't ask me anymore, I won't say anything!"

"Xiao Weiji, what's your attitude?" Even Xiao Yanzhen, who had just arrived, got angry.

"Don't ask anymore!" Xiao Weiji simply squatted down, put his hands on his head and pretended to be an invulnerable turtle.

Seeing him resisting like this, everyone was at a loss as to what to do.

A pair of beige women's sports shoes came out from the crowd. It was Zhang Moyan who walked out from the side. She walked to the front of Xiao Weiji, squatted down, paused, and sincerely asked Xiao Weiji: "Uncle, can you please tell me what you knew back then?"

Xiao Weiji looked up and saw that it was her. He stood up immediately, his eyes filled with anger: "You are dreaming! You are Chen Yun's daughter and you are not a good person! You killed Uncle Guoxi and Shunqing. Do you know how good Shunqing is? Go away, I will never tell you a word even if I die!"

"Mo Yan..." When Xiao Xingyu heard this, he immediately stepped forward and put his arm around Zhang Mo Yan's shoulders to protect her.

Zhang Moyan shook her head in reassurance, then turned to look at Xiao Weiji calmly and said, "Yes, you are right. I am Chen Yun's daughter, but please don't forget that I am also Zhang Shunqing's daughter. If you are my father's good friend, now I am asking you as the daughter of your deceased friend to tell me the last situation of my father whom I have never met."
