Hexi

After parting with Sister-in-law Rong, Su Wei returned to the mansion full of doubts. She didn't know if it was right to let Sister-in-law Rong go.After all, all the trust in her only comes from that anonymous letter.But Su Wei wanted to gamble again, betting that Sao Rong would really reappear in three days, and also betting that she would bring shocking information when she reappeared.

In the evening, Mrs. Xu sent a maid to ask her to go to the main room to have dinner together. Su Shou didn't come back to eat at night, and the mother and daughter happened to be together. When I asked, it turned out that Chang Wei was going to be interrogated tonight. Su Wei was concerned about the results of the interrogation, so she asked Mrs. Xu : "Father came back later, my wife asked me what was the result of the interrogation?"

While picking out the meat from the crab legs, Mrs. Xu looked at her lightly: "Why are you so concerned about this?"

"Then I also have a share of credit for Chang Wei's arrest. Isn't it normal to care about the progress? Besides, he and Fang Mei almost killed me when they were on that mountain."

When Xu heard this, she put down the chopsticks and looked at her seriously: "Girl, tell me, are you doing something with Han Shizi in private?"

"No." Su Wei ate the crab meat, "Han Shizi and I didn't do anything."

"Still lying to me?" Mrs. Xu gave her a reproachful look, and then sighed softly, "Since you came back from your illness, I feel that you are very different from before. You used to be obedient, gentle, and quiet, but now It’s like changing a person. Not only has the temperament changed drastically, but also the way of doing things is different, with foresight and scheming. To be honest, even I often feel that I am not as good as you. I don’t want to explore what you have experienced in Zhuangzi, but I In my heart, I have already treated you as my own. I won’t say much else, I just want you to know that if you know what you are doing, as long as it is something that does not harm others or yourself, then you need my help I will definitely help you.”

Su Luo looked at her who lowered her head and raised her tooth chopsticks again, feeling inexplicably guilty.

The love accumulated in the two lifetimes, how could she not be sincere?It's just that what happened to her, she really didn't know how to tell her "stepmother".

She lowered her head and pulled a few grains of rice, then she raised her head: "I'm ignorant, and I fooled my wife just now. Han Shizi and I are indeed dealing with some things. It's just because this matter concerns my mother, and I'm afraid that my wife will It would be uncomfortable to be caught in it after knowing it, so I have not revealed it."

Xu paused for a moment: "Your mother? What happened to her?"

"My mother's death is a little unclear." Su Wei put down the bowl and chopsticks, "I think clearly."

Xu said in a daze, "Sister Xie's family... Didn't she have an accident?"

Su Wei shook her head: "No. The accident was just an illusion. She was murdered. The murderer was very secretive, sophisticated, and extremely well-planned. He even forged a suicide note and deceived his father. These things, I only found out after exchanging information with my father after the showdown with my father a while ago."

Xu didn't know what to say, she never thought that such a thing would happen.

"Is there any clue? ... Didn't your father check it immediately?"

"After we confessed, my father is also ready to investigate, but this matter is a bit complicated to say, and it cannot be done immediately."

Su Wei thought about where to start to tell the story, but Xu thought she had something to hide, and said with some guilt: "It doesn't matter if you don't want to say it, I can understand."

Su Luo looked at her: "I'm not guarding against you. Mother's death happened before you passed the door. It can be said that the murderer may be anyone in this house, and it can't be your wife. It's just that I checked a few times After months, it turned out that there were various signs that had something to do with the imperial court—or, in other words, with Chang Wei’s case, which cannot be explained clearly in a few words.”

Mrs. Xu nodded: "If you can't explain clearly, don't say it. I don't have to know." After she finished speaking, she blamed herself again: "It's all my fault. I should believe you are the one, but just now I had to get to the bottom of it."

"Of course it's not your fault, we are a family, I should have told you frankly."

Everyone gave in to each other, but they became uncomfortable.Mrs. Xu sat and said "嗐", and put a ball for her: "Since you said that we are a family, then let's not hold back." Seeing Su Wei eating, she also bowed her head and drank. Soup.At the end he hesitated and said: "You just said that the murderer could be anyone in this mansion. Could it be that you mean that someone from the Su family killed sister Xie's family?"

"I'm not sure where the murderer came from, but the person who did all this must be someone my mother is very familiar with. So the murderer may come from the Su family."

Mrs. Xu was silent, and murmured: "Could it be that you even became cruel to Bao Mama back then, you must have doubted her?"

Su Wei didn't deny it: "Although Madam Bao is loyal to my mother, she is too self-righteous, so I have to investigate her."

Mrs. Xu nodded silently, and said again: "So, your indifference to your father is mostly because of your mother?"

Su Wei nodded: "Father has an unshirkable responsibility to mother. I didn't blame him."

"One night earlier, you all returned home very late. Could it be that you are going to a showdown?"

"Exactly."

Mrs. Xu seemed to have realized something, stirred the soup in the bowl twice, and said: "Recently, the relationship between you father and daughter seems to be less tense, and he is quite tolerant of you, even the last time you followed Han in the middle of the night The prince went to hunt down the murderer, but he didn't say anything, by the way, he even brought back snacks for us all, which was simply impossible before, in this way, some misunderstandings should be cleared up between you, right?"

Su Wei sighed: "That night, it was the first time I had talked so much with my father when I grew up."

"Then, do you still hate him?"

This question silenced Su Luowen.

In the past, it was almost a no-brainer.But after Su Shou told everything, Su Luo's rationality prevailed.Su Shou was indeed sorry for Mrs. Xie. According to Su Wei's standards, he was ashamed to be a husband and a father. No matter how much regret he had, Mrs. Xie would never come back.

But the sadness between the two of them is not so pure, nor is it caused by one or two incidents. In the face of the complicated case, stubbornly harboring hatred can't play any positive role, so, there is still hatred in her heart. Yes, but there are many more important things ahead of this hatred. At this moment, she doesn't have so much energy to dig into the corners.Insisting on disclosing the fact that father and daughter are at odds will only allow people to take advantage of loopholes.

But she was unwilling to express this thought to her mouth, because she didn't want Su Shou to have the opportunity to know that he had such a reasonable daughter.

Seeing that she didn't answer, Mrs. Xu stopped asking, and said directly: "I've been holding these things in my heart for a long time. Today I know what's going on, and I feel at ease. From now on, you can just go to work with your son, Xie family My sister is really lucky to have such a filial daughter like you. You should try to find out the real culprit as soon as possible, so that mother can rest in peace!"

Su Wei nodded and was about to respond when Mu Jin came: "Girl, Mr. Han is in a hurry."

Mrs. Xu laughed when she heard the words: "It's true that Cao Cao is here!"

Su Wei, who has been in the second life, is a little embarrassed: "I'll come as soon as I go!"

Mrs. Xu picked up the tea with a smile: "Hurry up and get busy! I'll go visit the garden with the Duke's wife!"
