Xie Shizi's shameless daily life
Chapter 36 Chapter 36
A shrill voice rang in my ears: "Yining!"
Aunt Lin, who had come here at some point, was sitting on the edge of the cliff, crying and shouting.
Zhao Shu stared blankly at the cliff in front of her.
Aunt Lin's crying gradually subsided. She turned around suddenly, glared at Zhao Shu angrily, stretched out her hand holding the handkerchief, pointed at her and said, "It's you! It's you who killed Yi Ning!"
After saying that, he stood up and threw himself on Zhao Shu, grabbed Zhao Shu's arms tightly with both hands, and pulled her madly, trying to take her to the edge of the cliff. Zhang Xuanyu and others who came with them saw that something was wrong, and immediately stepped forward to pull Zhao Shu away from Aunt Lin.
Aunt Lin kept reaching towards Zhao Shu, waving her arms wildly, with a look of madness. She couldn't see anyone else but Zhao Shu. She had only one thought in her mind, which was to send Zhao Shu downstairs to accompany her daughter!
Zhao Shu still looked dazed. Was he gone just like that?
Zhang Xuanyu, who had been standing in front of Zhao Shu, had several bloody scratches on his face from Aunt Lin's nails, and he cried out in pain.
Zhang Xuanyu raised his hand and touched his face. His fingers were immediately wet. He was furious and showed no mercy. He pushed Aunt Lin to the ground, pointed at her nose, and shouted, "Stop!"
Aunt Lin fell to the ground and did not get up again. Tears kept falling down her face. She looked dull and numb. She turned her head and looked at the cliff, muttering, "Why?"
The voice was so soft that it was almost inaudible. Only after Zhao Shu looked at her lips did she know what she said.
Yeah, why?
Zhang Xuanyu looked at Aunt Lin with an expression that seemed a little reluctant, but he finally said, "We'll talk about this after we return home."
Zhang Xuanyu waved his hand and called two maids over, and the two maids half-helped and half-carried Aunt Lin onto the carriage.
Zhang Xuanyu glanced at Zhao Shu who had her head down, and opened his mouth to say something, but finally sighed and said, "Let's go back." He waved weakly at Zhao Shu, turned around and got on the carriage.
Zhao Shu didn't say anything as she walked towards the carriage. The moment she lifted the curtain and stepped into the carriage, she turned her head and glanced at Zhang Yijing who had been standing quietly in the corner. Then she calmly withdrew her gaze, bent down and entered the carriage.
In the main hall, everyone was there except the old lady, even Xie Jin was there, but no one knew who invited him over.
Zhang Xuanyu sat in the main seat, turned his head to look at Zhang Xuanliang and Aunt Lin, whose eyes were numb, then turned his head to look at Zhao Shu, who was standing in the middle of the hall, and shouted at her, "Kneel down!"
Zhao Shu glanced at her uncle without saying a word, then knelt straight down on the ground with a thump.
The sound was crisp and it also touched Xie Jin's heart.
Xie Jin clenched his hands slightly on his knees, but then slowly stretched them out, raised the teacup, lowered his eyes and took a sip.
Zhang Xuanyu looked at Zhao Shu with a look of deep sorrow on his face. He said, "How could you do such a cruel thing! Yi Ning is your sister!"
Is this a direct conviction for her?
Zhao Shu raised her head and looked around. Finally, her eyes fell on Zhang Yijing who was sitting on the chair without saying a word. She said lightly, "She jumped down by herself."
"Bang!" Zhang Xuanyu slammed the table heavily: "How dare you quibble!"
Zhao Shu shifted her gaze to Zhang Xuanyu and repeated, "She jumped down by herself."
Zhang Xuanyu looked at her stubborn look, feeling a lump in his chest. He pointed at her for a long time but couldn't utter a word.
Li Ruomei wiped the non-existent tears from her face with a handkerchief and said in a fake tone, "Yining, such a good girl, is gone just like that."
"How do you know that it was Zhang Yining?" Zhao Shu looked at her straight and asked.
Li Ruomei choked up in her throat and said nothing.
"That's Yi Ning." Zhang Yijing, who had been silent the whole time, spoke up. She walked to Zhao Shu's side, knelt down, and looked at Zhang Xuanliang and Aunt Lin apologetically. "Yi Ning sent me a letter from someone outside the mansion a few days ago. The letter said that she wanted me to meet her today, and it was dangerous and I couldn't tell anyone else, otherwise she would make us never find her again." She said, resting her forehead on the ground. "I wanted to persuade Yi Ning to come back today, but I didn't expect that cousin Shu'er would suddenly appear there, and that scene happened. It's all Yi Jing's fault."
Seeing the red spot on her daughter's forehead, Li Ruomei felt extremely distressed. She hurriedly walked to her side and helped her up, saying distressedly: "How can it be your fault? Your only mistake is that you don't know how to judge people. You can judge a person by his face but not his heart." She glanced at Zhao Shu meaningfully, then pulled Zhang Yijing back to her seat.
Others wanted her to be the scapegoat, so there was no need for her to cover up for them anymore.
Zhao Shu stood up straight, looked at Zhang Xuan and said, "I was not the one who pushed my uncle down. Besides, Zhang Yining was already pregnant before she disappeared."
"You are lying!" Aunt Lin, who had been lost in her own thoughts, suddenly became angry and twisted her body vigorously, trying to break free from the control of the old woman and rush towards Zhao Shu.
But the two old women were not pushovers. They were big and strong and very powerful, and they did not let Aunt Lin break free.
The two women pressed down on her shoulders, and Aunt Lin could no longer move. Seeing that she could not break free, Aunt Lin murmured, "You are lying!"
"You are lying"
Zhao Shu looked at the expressions of the crowd. Except for Aunt Lin, everyone else looked in disbelief. But there were two exceptions, Xie Jin and Zhang Yijing. Both of them had calm expressions on their faces, as if they were not surprised by this shocking news.
Xie Jin was not surprised, she could understand, after all, he was the one who told her this information, but Zhang Yijing
Zhao Shu lowered her eyes. Yes, she definitely knew.
Zhao Shu looked up and said calmly: "To find out whether I lied or not, call the maid who used to serve Zhang Yining and ask her." Zhang Yijing's hand holding the handkerchief tightened, but then loosened.
Zhang Xuanyu stared at Zhao Shu motionlessly. Zhao Shu's eyes were calm and she let him look at her openly. After a moment, Zhang Xuanyu lowered his eyes and called the servant beside him and told him to bring the person over.
While the servant was taking the person away, no one spoke in the hall and everyone had a different expression.
Soon, the servant was followed by a short maid, and they both entered the courtyard together.
Before the maid could stand firm, Zhang Xuanyu shouted, "Bitch! Kneel down!"
The maid raised her head in panic and glanced at Zhang Xuanyu's face. Seeing him staring at her sternly, her legs went limp and she collapsed to the ground in an instant.
She immediately trembled, prostrated herself on the ground, and said with a pale face, "I don't know, I don't know."
Zhang Xuanyu slammed the table fiercely: "Bitch, you still dare to quibble! Come, drag her away and beat her hard until she confesses!"
Two servants came over to pull her. She used all her strength to break free from them. She knelt on the ground and took two steps forward. Then she banged her head on the ground again and again: "I will tell you everything, I will tell you everything."
Zhao Shu kept her eyes on Zhang Yijing. After hearing what the maid said, she clenched her hands that were holding the handkerchief. Then, as if she noticed her gaze, she loosened her hands slightly and smiled back at her.
Looking at Zhang Yijing's gentle smile, he withdrew his gaze. What on earth was she going to do?
"Girl, girl she"
The maid's temples were soaked with sweat, her face was pale, and finally she gritted her teeth, closed her eyes tightly, knocked her head heavily on the ground, and said in a trembling voice: "The girl, the girl has had an affair with a man outside."
"I have tried to persuade her, but she simply didn't listen to me."
No one was listening to what she was saying now, everyone's mind was on her sentence "beginning and end".
Li Ruomei's eyes fell on Aunt Lin. She looked her up and down, then withdrew her gaze with contempt, as if she was afraid of being polluted by something dirty. It turned out that a concubine was just a toy for people to play with, and the children she gave birth to were not presentable.
Perhaps this incident was too shocking, so the two maids holding Aunt Lin hostage were stunned for a moment, and Aunt Lin broke free from their shackles at this time, rushed towards the maid, and shouted frantically: "Bitch! I'll tear your mouth apart, and see if you dare to make up stories about your master!"
The moment Aunt Lin pounced on her, Zhao Shu swiftly got up and hid behind Zhang Xuanyu.
Aunt Lin threw the maid to the ground in a frenzy, sat on her, and slapped her face with her left and right hands.
The maid twisted her body hard, but her hands were held down by Aunt Lin's knees and she couldn't break free. In less than a moment, the maid's cheeks were swollen, her strength to break free gradually weakened, and her eyes turned slightly white.
Zhang Xuan frowned, thinking that if the fight continued someone might be killed, so he signaled the servant to pull Aunt Lin away.
After receiving the look, the servant immediately stepped forward and dragged the maid up. When Aunt Lin was dragged up, she kicked the maid randomly, one of her kicks hit the maid's chest. The maid curled up in pain, her face turned pale.
Zhao Shu lowered her eyes and glanced at Aunt Lin, whose hair was disheveled and whose eyes were dull. Then she stood up from behind Zhang Xuanyu, came to the side of the maid, and said, "Uncle, whether the woman who jumped off the cliff was Zhang Yining or not, we have to wait until the people in the mansion find her."
Speak of Cao Cao, he appeared. A servant walked in quickly from outside the courtyard and whispered a few words respectfully to Zhang Xuan.
Zhang Xuanyu listened to the servant's words, turned his head to look at Zhang Xuanliang, frowned and said: "Carry it in."
The servant received the master's order and shouted loudly outside the courtyard: "Bring him in!"
Soon, four servants came in carrying a stretcher, put it down carefully and then retreated.
"Click" Zhao Shu heard a sound similar to that of wood breaking coming from Aunt Lin's side, and then saw Aunt Lin got strength from somewhere and broke free from the servant's hand and rushed to the stretcher.
His face was pale and his chest was rising and falling as if he was breathing desperately. After a while, his breathing seemed to become smoother and he tried to lift the white cloth with trembling hands. He tried to pinch a corner of the cloth with his fingers, but failed after several attempts.
Aunt Lin withdrew her hand abruptly, fell to the ground and took two breaths, clenched her hands, turned around suddenly, and lifted the white cloth.
A completely disfigured face was exposed in front of everyone. The face looked as if it had been bitten by something. Except for a pair of eyes, there was not a single piece of healthy skin or flesh.
Li Ruomei turned slightly to the side and covered her mouth and nose with a handkerchief in disgust.
Aunt Lin tidied the woman's hair, put her arms around her shoulders and hugged her up.
Aunt Lin hugged her tightly with her left hand and patted her back with her right hand. She choked with sobs and murmured, "Good girl Yining, Auntie has cooked your favorite lotus seed soup." As she spoke, the corners of her lips rose stiffly and she coaxed, "Don't sleep in any more, or it will get cold."
Li Ruomei looked at this scene, removed the handkerchief that was covering her mouth and nose, and the look of disgust on her face disappeared.
