Chapter 144 Three Eagles with One Arrow

Su Fengjin got up suddenly, looked directly at Su Zhengqing: "Father, how did my mother die?"

Su Zhengqing's face froze slightly: "It's been...how many years, why do you go again..."

"You really will enjoy the blessings of all people. In the past, Aunt Xiao sold herself to help you get a Jinshi. Later, my mother brought a generous dowry to help you become a merchant and buy an official job for you. But why did you force me to death? Mother, my younger brother is only eight months old and hasn't been born yet, why don't you let him go?" Su Fengjin approached Su Zhengqing step by step, Su Zhengqing's hands shook violently, he lowered his head and suddenly lost his words.

Su Fengjin clasped his shoulders and said hoarsely: "Speak! Why don't you speak? My mother is the one who caused it, right? Is it her?"

"Don't talk nonsense." Su Zhengqing raised his head sharply, looking straight at Su Fengjin, helpless and sad.

Su Fengjin let go of her hands and sneered: "Yeah, if we really want to talk about it, she, Xiao Ranxin, is the real wife. What is my mother, she is just a concubine who has been deceived."

"Your mother is the wife I'm marrying, so stop talking nonsense." When Su Zhengqing mentioned that gentle woman like water, his emotions were erratic. It was a feeling of bitterness and sweetness intertwined. Turning into bitterness, he smiled wryly in his heart, such a gentle person was originally untouchable, but now he was blind and touched him.Now all these years are nothing but retribution! !
"I'm tired, let's discuss these things tomorrow." Su Fengjin knelt on the dumpling, staring down at the basin that was bursting into flames.

Everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief, Aunt Xiao entered the hall holding Su Mingyang's hand, looked at Su Fengjin in embarrassment, and said in a weak voice, "Feng Jin, I was sorry for you, but I hurt your mother..."

"Ming Yang! Help her back to rest." Su Zhengqing glanced at her coldly.

Xiao Ran's eyes drooped, so he had no choice but to follow Su Mingyang.

Su Mingyang turned his head and took a deep look at Su Fengjin, and said in a low voice, "Fengjin, thank you."

He knew that if Su Fengjin insisted on sending her to the government, then this matter would not be over. After all, there are all witnesses and evidences. No matter what reason Su Fengjin was relieved, it finally made everyone breathe a sigh of relief. up.

Zhan Qingcheng glanced at Su Zhengqing, who had a tired face, and thought, maybe he should take some time to deal with this old fox, Su Zhengqing.

Su Fengjin lowered her eyes and said in a hoarse voice, "Father, go to sleep too, I'll stay here."

Su Zhengqing knew that Su Fengjin, like that woman, had a soft heart, and the anger in her heart dissipated after such a disturbance. Su Zhengqing was very accurate in determining whether it was his daughter.

"The mansion will take care of Mrs. Du's funeral. Go out and rest."

Su Fengjin just knelt down, took the paper money from Wanzhu to burn, and stared at Su Zhengqing while burning it, Su Zhengqing said goodbye to Zhan Qingcheng when he saw that he had nothing else to say and left.

As soon as Zhan Qingcheng left, Wan Zhu said angrily: "Miss! What a great opportunity, why did you let Xiao Shi go like this! When she cheated us earlier, have you forgotten those days! If it weren't for her, Miss would I won’t suffer from those sufferings anymore! If the Taoist priest hadn’t saved the young lady, the young lady would have lost her life.”

Su Fengjin lowered her eyes, burned the paper money, and said in a low voice: "I owed her my life, this time, I will pay her back."

Seeing that the paper money was all burnt, Wanzhu brought another pile over. Zhan Qingcheng knelt beside Su Fengjin and helped to burn it together. What happened to the two people in the government?"

These two people haven't left yet, they have stood outside in the cold wind and snow for more than an hour, now they entered the house shivering, knelt in front of Zhan Qingcheng, and whispered submissively: "General, little one But everything was done accordingly, this... this money..."

Zhan Qingcheng burned a handful of paper money, and then he said leisurely, with a rather embarrassed look: "Recently, I heard that the snow disaster in Jeju in the north is quite serious..."

Xiao Youqian is a man of current affairs, he hurriedly said: "I don't dare to ask for this small amount of money, and I will donate it for disaster relief."

Zhan Qingcheng took a handful of paper money and handed it over: "He has kindness in his heart, yes, I will reward you."

"...Thank you General."

I have seen those who rewarded gold, silver and jewelry, and those who rewarded silk and satin, but I have never seen those who rewarded ghost coins. Is the co-authorship intended to be left behind for them to use?When the couple thought about it like this, they felt the wind blowing on their backs, and their hearts panicked.

Seeing the dumbfounded expressions of the two, Wanzhu coughed twice, and acted like a trainee: "What are you doing in a daze? Hurry up, burn more, so that when Grandma Du leaves, I will be in front of the Hall of Hell." Speak more of your kind words."

"Yes yes yes, let's burn it." Xiao Youqian pulled Mrs. Xiao over, and the four knelt down and burned most of the paper money. In the end, the Xiao couple was so sleepy that they burst into tears and couldn't stand it anymore. Only then did Su Fengjin let them go down to rest.

It was past midnight, and Su Fengjin was tired after all this trouble, leaning against Zhan Qingcheng's shoulder, still burning paper money.

Zhan Qingcheng held her hand and said softly: "Enough, go to sleep."

"Tell me, do today's events have anything to do with you?" Su Fengjin looked up at him, the cold wind blew outside, shaking the candles in the room, Zhan Qingcheng's face became more and more handsome in Su Fengjin's eyes.

"How did you discover it? You already discovered it when I was sitting in the pavilion." Zhan Qingcheng laughed, his beloved wife looked at him in a daze, and he was also a shrewd person.

"Then Granny Du..."

"Jin'er, I don't dare to think of her. The Su family has bullied you for so long, so naturally they want to get one or two back, but this... is really unexpected." These things were not Zhan Qingcheng. Zhan Qingcheng is just following the scheming and pushing the boat along the way.

"But those coins..." Su Fengjin couldn't connect the whole incident for a moment.

Wanzhu dozed off and swayed, and one of them fell to the ground with a bang without paying attention. Su Fengjin hurriedly helped her: "Go to sleep."

Wanzhu shook her head: "Young servant can hold on a little longer, Miss, I just can't figure out what happened to Granny Du's death."

Su Fengjin took out a letter, which said, my wife kisses.

She tore open the letter, and inside was Su Zhengqing's delicate handwriting. Looking at the yellowed handwriting, Su Fengjin remembered that she took it out of the box last, and it must have been a long time ago.

There were only a few words in the letter.

My wife is gone, my husband hates not being able to be with me, and the little girl is also heartbroken, regretting the disparity in her status once in her life, ruining her life.

Su Fengjin looked at it over and over for a long time, but she didn't see anything. The disparity in status was presumably because Su Fengjin's mother was a big family in the south of the Yangtze River, and Su Zhengqing was just a poor Jinshi at that time.She threw the letter into the fire, and said in a low voice: "Grandma Du did intend to murder, but presumably it wasn't Aunt Xiao."

Zhan Qingcheng raised his eyebrows, his eyes gleamed brightly: "How can you see that?"

"Aunt Xiao's temperament is very public, she invited so many people here, she just wanted to enjoy the glory of the general, how could she think that the death of Granny Du would involve her in the end. Zhan Qingcheng , I heard from the doctor earlier that Granny Du can obviously live for a few more days." Su Fengjin looked at him fixedly, if he wanted to use Granny Du as a lure to bring the Su House into the bureau, then Granny Du would have to die, but ...Will Zhan Qingcheng do that?
He rubbed Su Fengjin's hair: "What are you thinking?"

"Only when Granny Du is dead can she testify against Aunt Xiao's murder, and only then can she bribe the coordinator and the doctor, and only then can she borrow the money from the Xiao's mansion... Then is there anything missing? If Granny Du is not dead... "Then there is no such thing as murder and bribery.Su Fengjin lowered her eyes and burned paper money.

Zhan Qingcheng smiled wryly: "You didn't believe me?"

Su Fengjin burned the paper money silently. It wasn't that she didn't believe him, it was just that she couldn't figure out Granny Du's death for a while.

Wanzhu suddenly said to Su Fengjin: "By the way, didn't the maidservant go to sacrifice to the maidservant's parents first, and when she came back, she saw Hongdou sneaking around, and she didn't know what she was doing. When she saw me, it was like seeing a ghost." I ran away, originally I thought it was a mistake, but when she ran away, I felt that something was wrong, and I thought it was the girl who had done some wicked thing to escape, but now that I think about it, it is the red bean next to Grandma Lanxin what."

"Red beans?" Su Fengjin seldom moved around in the mansion, so she didn't know much about the servants and maids in the mansion.

Wanzhu slapped her thigh, and leaned over excitedly: "It's the silent Hongdou next to Grandma Lanxin, Hongdouyuan is not dumb, I heard people in the house say, it seems to be to protect Grandma Lanxin to eat Something, and then I hurt my throat and stopped talking, Miss, why do you think Hongdou is here at this time."

Su Fengjin's heart skipped a beat: "Where is Hongdou from?"

"I heard it's from the area of ​​Ping'an County. Could it be that you came back to visit your relatives?" Wan Zhu's doubts subsided a bit, but she always felt a weird feeling that couldn't be explained.

Su Fengjin burned the paper money for a while and suddenly looked at Zhan Qingcheng: "You know that?"

Zhan Qingcheng stroked her hair, looked at the snowstorm outside the hall, the snowflakes fell on the trees, and condensed a touch of white under the lamp, and the black tiles in the distance were also covered by slightly larger snow , The smell of incense was lingering in the hall, and his cold voice lingered in the empty hall.

"Some people want to kill three birds with one stone, but I was just pushing the boat along."

Zhan Qingcheng got up and stretched his arms and legs, and came to the door, seeing the snowstorm outside, the courtyard directly leads to the closed gate, there is no one outside at this moment, only a row of guards from Zhanfu He was still standing guard at the door, gazing into the darkness like a nocturnal god in the dark night, with a cold and stern face.

Su Fengjin looked back at him: "What is killing three birds with one stone?"

"First, destroy your relationship with the Su Mansion. If you enter the Zhan Mansion in the future, you will have no family. If the relationship is destroyed, no matter who you want to overthrow, it is easy to overthrow. Third, you will think that I killed her and resent me. This is to pick on the relationship between you and me. However, she underestimated Jin'er's intelligence .”

Zhan Qingcheng's last words, I don't know whether they are praising Su Fengjin, or mocking her, at least to Su Fengjin's ears, they are mostly mocking, he is revenge for her suspicion of him before!
