The rebirth of the demon concubine

Chapter 32 The Death of Winter Bamboo
Su's face flashed a bit of displeasure when he heard this, and looked at the shopkeeper Qian on the ground in embarrassment, sighed and said helplessly: "A few days ago, Dongzhu told the servant that he had someone he liked, let him The maidservant pointed it out to her, but she never thought about it... Sigh~ this girl is also out of her mind, and even greedy for money with outsiders."

"How does my aunt know that shopkeeper Qian and Dongzhu are greedy for money behind your back?" Huo Zhixin said suddenly, "I didn't say that the shopkeeper gave Dongzhu the money that was greedy for money. My aunt must have known about it so quickly Bar?"

Su Clan almost asked for her tongue, but just now she fell for Huo Zhixin's words!Although Huo Zhixin said that the money shopkeeper would give money on a fixed month basis, she didn't say how much money she would give!Now, just now, Mrs. Su indirectly said that the shopkeeper Qian had an affair with Dongzhu, and it is human nature to give some money to someone she likes, but she made Mrs. Su buckle the hat of swallowing money. Zhu knows... Dongzhu's move, the Su family has given up, and Chunlan over there... Huo Zhixin looked at the ugly Chunlan, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly, she must have started to plan for her future, right?
"Miss said that..." Su Shi laughed dryly, glanced at Huo Zhengting, who had a bad face, and said, "If the cashier didn't make a mistake, how could he be tied up here? According to what the lady said, the servant, Perceived by asking."

"Really? Auntie is good at guessing people's hearts!" Huo Zhixin smiled, "Auntie guessed right, but this money shopkeeper is greedy for money. According to Auntie, this guy is very likely to be with the people around you. The servant girl Dongzhu colluded and greedy for money and silver behind your back! Why don't we call Dongzhu up for questioning?"

Su Shi nodded to show her agreement, and there was no trace of fear in her eyes.Seeing Huo Zhixin, there was another trace of admiration in her heart. It seems that the Su family has already prepared a way to deal with this matter, and it's ruthless enough!
"Report to Master, Miss." The housekeeper in the backyard was inconvenient to enter as a man, so a woman went to summon her, but unexpectedly the woman came back with a pale face, and said, "That girl Dongzhu... hanged herself!"

"Did you hang yourself?" Huo Zhengting turned suspiciously to Su Shi, who also looked shocked. The expression on Su Shi's face was definitely real enough, but the flash of joy in his eyes made Chunlan see it clearly, and at the same time let Chunlan The heart is completely cold.Huo Zhixin only thought of this situation when she saw Su Shi calmly accepting Dongzhu's interrogation, but Huo Zhixin also thought of other possibilities, but she didn't expect Su Shi to do it thoroughly!
"Going back to the master, when the old slave went, I heard from the maid in the yard that Dongzhu said that after hearing the news that shopkeeper Qian had been tied up this afternoon, Dongzhu said that he was not feeling well and had been staying in the servant's room. Hanged to death..." The woman who went to check was also in a cold sweat, trying to describe the matter as completely as possible.

"Hey! Why can't this girl think about it!" Su Shi looked remorseful, her eyes were red, and she choked up, "Even if this is the case, you don't have to commit suicide because of the sin. This servant will beg the master to forgive you!"

"Being greedy for money is not a crime that will not lead to death." Seeing Su's pretentious appearance, Huo Zhixin said with a hint of sarcasm in her tone, "Auntie, you really don't have a brain, you deserve it if you die, don't you?" Chunlan, but the moment Chunlan noticed it, she narrowed her eyes and sighed: "I didn't deserve to die, but I accidentally died, this resentment... Daddy, let's find someone to bring it back and do a waterway to rescue him later. It’s not very peaceful in the house recently, is it?”

"En." Huo Zhengting replied in a low voice, looking at Su Shi with a trace of inexplicable meaning in his eyes, Su Shi felt his scalp go numb, and did not say anything.

"Then dad, what should we do with this person?" Huo Zhixin turned her target to Shopkeeper Qian, and asked with a helpless look on her face, "Dongzhu is dead, what should I do with this principal criminal? Should I hand it over to the government?" Huo Zhengting saw that the Su family had nothing to say. , and nodded in agreement with Huo Zhixin's approach.Huo Zhixin nodded as if talking to herself: "This is also very good. According to the account, at least 5000 taels of silver have been embezzled privately. According to the law, it should be tattooed on the face, assigned to slavery, and exiled for three thousand miles."

"Okay, come here..." When Huo Zhengting was about to order his servants to drag Shopkeeper Qian down, Shopkeeper Qian, who was still rolling his eyes just now, suddenly came to his senses, and shouted: "Master Hou! You are so wronged! "

"Wait a minute—" Huo Zhixin looked at the "waking" Treasurer Qian, then turned to look at Huo Zhengting, "Daddy."

Huo Zhengting saw that Shopkeeper Qian had something to say, although he didn't want to hear it, but Huo Zhixin had already opened his mouth, Huo Zhengting waved his hand to make people stop first, and asked: "What else do you have to say?"

"Master Hou, I'm so wronged! Those who have a small amount of money are handed over to a maid named Dongzhu every month, so she can pass it on to the owner!" Money shopkeeper has been paralyzed on the ground since no one knows when. , from time to time, he heard the movement of the outside world, but not long ago he didn't know what was going on, and the outside world felt more and more clearly, and then he was convicted!Only then hastily opened his eyes and shouted out his innocence.

"Dongzhu is not mine at all, when did you give me the money?" Huo Zhixin saw that the money shopkeeper didn't seem to realize the fact that Dongzhu was dead, so she said, "Auntie said a long time ago that it was you and Dongzhu communicated secretly, embezzled money and money, even Dongzhu committed suicide in fear of crime, what do you have to argue?!"

What my aunt said.When Mrs. Su heard these words, she was so angry that a mouthful of old blood almost spewed out from her neck. Besides, didn't the cashier have a stroke?How can it recover so quickly? !Su Shi glared at Huo Zhixin, and met Huo Zhixin's half-smiling eyes, trembling with anger.

She was cheated!

"No! I am wronged, how dare I miss Miss Dongzhu? What kind of secret communication? Where did I have an affair with Dongzhu?! All of this was done by Aunt Su! It was all her! Little It’s because I listened to Aunt Su’s words that I did these stupid things, and I gave all the money to Aunt Su!” Can Shopkeeper Qian fail to understand what this means?This Mrs. Su wanted to hang himself out and kill him, how could he be willing to take the blame? !So, while shouting and struggling, Shopkeeper Qian threw himself at Huo Zhengting's feet and said, "Master Hou, you have to trust me, Aunt Su sent someone to find me a few months ago, and asked me to try my best to control this pawnshop. From now on, the monthly profit will be split [-]% to [-]%! It is a little ghost who is obsessed with this kind of thing, so please forgive me!"

"Master! This servant is wronged!" Before Shopkeeper Qian finished speaking, the Su family here also cried and said with aggrieved face, "At that time, this servant sent someone to find Shopkeeper Qian to take care of the shop when he saw that the shop's business was not good. Who would have thought that he... ...Treasurer Qian, how can you beat him up?"
