Chapter 145 Discovering the Secret
He realized that Qiu Li must have heard that he went to the county government to commit crimes against Shi Tian, ​​so he came here to question him now.

Qiu Qianshen forced himself to calm down, and hurriedly closed the wooden box, then returned to the desk and hurriedly stuffed the box into the original hidden compartment.

Before he could put the box back in place, Qiu Li had already pushed open the door of the study and rushed in.

"Aye! How could you do this? You're too cruel!" At this moment, Qiu Li couldn't care less about parenthood, she rushed straight to Qiu Qianshen, grabbed one of his sleeves, and shouted loudly : "Why did you do this? The lady was with you as a husband and wife, and took care of the housework for you to have children. She was in trouble, and instead of protecting her and saving her, you went to trouble her? Aye! Are you doing this right for her? Are you worthy of your own conscience?"

Qiu Qianshen was terribly frightened by his daughter's recklessness, but he didn't dare to move.He still held the bottom of the box with one hand. He moved too quickly just now, and one corner of the box didn't seem to be completely pressed into the secret compartment.

He was anxious in his heart, while trying to appease Qiu Li's emotions, he also had to worry about not letting the box fall and be discovered by his daughter. In the end, he could barely maintain his body balance with an awkward posture.

"Li'er, Aye...Aye has no other choice..."

He pretended to be scared by Qiu Li and sat on the chair in a strange posture.

"Tian... Your ma'am, you really did something outrageous back then. I went to Shanchun Hall to check the account books, with the intention of clearing her of the suspicion. But I didn't expect that what I found would confirm her. Daughter, your mother committed such evil things, how can you let Aye and I hide it for her, why not turn yourself in as soon as possible and ask for a light sentence for her?"

After hearing Qiu Qianshen's words, Qiu Li was stunned.

Seeing that his daughter stopped talking, he felt that his statement had been accepted by her.While she was in a trance, she firmly pressed the corner of the box with her fingers.Feeling that the box was finally pushed back, Qiu Qianshen couldn't help letting out a soft sigh.

"But!" Unexpectedly, the daughter in front of her stared, "Why do you say that the lady has an affair with Qiu Fu?"

She stared at Qiu Qianshen with wide eyes.Her eyes, like a sharp knife, can pierce all his deepest secrets.

"I..." Qiu Qianshen was speechless for a moment. He knew that this statement might be believed by others, but his daughter who had been with Mrs. Tian all year round would definitely sense something was wrong and doubt the authenticity of his testimony.

"Aye, outsiders may not know about the relationship between Madam and Uncle Qiu Fu, but me, you, the second brother, and the other servants in the third room don't know that they are innocent, and there is absolutely no way they can get along. You Why such a lie? Can you tell me clearly? "

"Presumptuous!" Qiu Qianshen was so annoyed by his daughter that he jumped up from his chair and slapped Qiu Li with his hands.Qiu Li couldn't dodge, and received this slap.

"You...what do you know? Who else knows better than me about this matter of husband and wife? You are a girl who has not been out of the court, but you don't know how to hide when you talk about this kind of matter between men and women, and you are ashamed?"

After finishing his impassioned speech, he suddenly realized that his excitement seemed too exaggerated.Qiu Qian looked deeply at Qiu Li who remained motionless after being beaten, fearing that she would be even more resentful towards him.If the child ran to the county government office to talk nonsense, wouldn't it make him walk around endlessly?
Qiu Qianshen hurried to remedy, he said to Qiu Li.

"Li'er, your lady, oh... I was ashamed to speak to you before I became a father. But you have to believe Aye, if there is no evidence, how dare I go to the county captain and talk nonsense, I..."

"Evidence? What evidence? Did they climb into the bed and let you catch them? Or did something big and small happen outside and you caught them?"

Qiu Li said through gritted teeth, her face was pale and her eyes were tearing apart.

Qiu Qian was taken aback.

"You... I don't need to tell you this!" His anger also came up, and this daughter was simply endless.How did he not find her so sharp-tongued and aggressive before?

Anyway, she can't prove that she lied, so Qiu Fu's suicide note can be used as evidence of Tian's infidelity.Moreover, Qiu Qianshen felt that Qiu Li didn't dare to do anything to him, she could only rely on him as her father now, and there was no need for him to get entangled with this child on this matter.

He pushed away his daughter who was standing in front of him, walked quickly to the door of the study, thought for a while, then turned around and said,

"Li'er, stop thinking about it. No matter what, I'm still you, Aye, and you're still my daughter. From now on, the three of us and your brother will live in peace, let's live a good life."

After finishing speaking, he didn't say anything more, stepped out of the room and left straight away.

Qiu Li stood where she was and waited for a long time.It was so long that she confirmed that Qiu Qianshen had left so far away that it was impossible to return to this room today.

She didn't move her body, but rolled her eyeballs, looking straight at the bottom of Aye's desk.

Just now, Aye pretended to fall, but in fact she felt that it was very disobedient.One of his hands held the bottom of the desk strangely, as if he was afraid that something would fall.

Qiu Li raised her eyebrows slightly.

*
Early the next morning, Qiu Li sat in the corridor of the three-bedroom courtyard in a daze.

She was not accompanied by a maidservant, which was her own request.Now she just wants to give herself a quiet space, she needs to think about some things.

From under her father's desk last night, she found the box that hadn't been completely stuffed back into the secret compartment.She couldn't hold back her curiosity and opened it to take a look. The moment she saw it, many things that she didn't think to understand before became clear.

Why did my father go to the county government to kill his relatives righteously, why did he frame his mother for having an affair with Qiu Fu, and who exactly hurt Qiu Shirong.

In an instant, the truth came to light.

Mother is indeed not innocent, but father, you are not innocent either.

In order to make yourself clear the relationship, you can be so decisive.

Qiu Li suddenly regretted why she wanted to discover her father's secret.

She thought how good it would be if she didn't know anything like before.

At least, now she doesn't have to worry about whether she should expose him and avenge her mother, or help him hide it.

After all, she only had her father and second brother to rely on.

"Second brother, when will you come back..."

Qiu Li looked up at the sky with a desolate face.she murmured to herself.

"Yo~ Isn't this Fifth Lady?"

A shrill and charming voice came from the side.

Qiu Li followed the sound and looked.

A woman dressed as a woman was accompanied by Mei Xin, her mother's former personal maid, standing not far from her and watching her.The woman's skin was as white as fat jade, and she had a pretty face, but the sarcastic smile at the corner of her mouth ruined her otherwise pretty good image.

Qiu Li didn't have this person in her memory. She looked no older than herself. How could this person appear in the courtyard of the third room of the Qiu family?

"who is she?"
