Chapter 270 Old Four Su Caught

Mother Chun sighed and said, "Missy is a truly transparent person."

Lin Siran shook his head slightly, expressing humility.

"The old madam asked me to come here to tell you that she was wrong about many things in the past. Some ugliness became uglier the more they were covered up. It would be better to dig out the bone to heal the wound and cure it," said Chunyu.

Lin Siran was a little surprised, she didn't think it was something Mrs. Lin could say.

Mrs. Lin has always cherished her reputation more than anything else. There was such a big mess in the Lin family, how could she be willing to make things worse?
Moreover, Mrs. Lin is clearly at odds with King Fu, will Mrs. Lin consider the consequences of offending King Fu?
Sister Chun didn't explain much, and it's not appropriate to say such things here.

"Grandmother is able to understand righteousness so deeply, it is really a blessing for the Lin family, and it is also a blessing for us as juniors." Lin Siran praised from the bottom of her heart.

The onlookers were probably a little tired, and they left first because they were bored. There were only a few people at the door, and it was only then that Lin Sizan saw Huo Min and Lu Qianxue, dressed in men's clothes, followed by their respective maids, who were also dressed in men's clothes.

Huo Min winked at her and smiled.

Lin Siran also smiled at her, quite moved.

Then he saw Yan Shichu wearing a big straw hat in the corner, he raised his head slightly, and it was only then that Lin Siran could see his appearance clearly.

Yan Shichu made a silence gesture, signaling her to keep quiet.

At this moment, Yan Shichu suddenly shouted: "Fourth Su!"

At this moment, a little skinny man who was about to slip away suddenly ran away.

Yan Shichu chased after him as quickly as lightning.

Lin Siran was dumbfounded.

Huo Min shouted: "Go, help!"

Only then did Lin Siran realize that Yan Shichu probably called out on purpose to test whether the fourth son Su had come to watch, but he guessed it unexpectedly.

If the fourth son Su is caught, many things will be explained.

Mother Chun also said: "That man is Su Laosi, catch him quickly!"

"Don't worry, mama, I'll definitely catch you." Lin Sizan reassured, Yan Shichu was not just a frail scholar.

With his older brother around, Fourth Su couldn't run far.

Not long after, Yan Shichu came back with Su Lao Si back, and Su Lao Si was ashamed, as if he had been punched a few times.

Yan Shichu handed Su Laosi to Huo Min and asked her to send him in.

"Lord Mei!" The Sixth Princess shouted, "Fourth Su is caught!"

When Ma Liu saw that the fourth son Su was also kicked into the lobby, his face was so ugly.

"Brother... I, Ma Liu, made you miserable, why are you still here?" Ma Liu said with a sad face.

Elder Su spat and scolded: "What are you talking about, don't talk nonsense."

Mei Youwei hurried in from the inside, and while arranging the black hat, she asked, "What's going on?"

"Fourth Su has already been caught, right here, he was eavesdropping outside just now, and when he wanted to slip away, we caught him." Sixth Princess proudly said.

Huo Min glanced back at Yan Shichu who had disappeared from the side again, her eyes were full of admiration, she didn't expect that he was not only a scholar, but also very neat in his fists and feet, she almost applauded when she saw it.

Mei Youwei wanted to die, and finally came up with a countermeasure to temporarily take Lin Siran into custody. Unexpectedly, the fourth brother Su ran out and was caught.

Mei Youwei gave Su Laosi a vicious look, and asked, "Is it Su Laosi who is kneeling in the hall?"

"Yes...it's a small one." The Fourth Su was also very helpless, he couldn't go back to Lin's house now, he was wandering outside, just in time to hear that Shuntian Mansion was being promoted to interrogate the case, thinking of so many people watching, he came to join in the fun It certainly doesn't matter.

How do you know you will be recognized?

I don't know who that kid is, he obviously doesn't know him.

"Fang Guichun identified you as the executioner who caused the Lin family's carriage to overturn into the river. Can you plead guilty?" Mei Youwei asked symbolically.

No matter how stupid Su Laosi was, he would never admit it.

"I'm wronged, my lord, the villain never did anything, it's Sister Chun who spurted blood!" Fourth Elder Su denied it categorically.

"Fourth Su, you're lying!" Mother Chun said, "Madam said you went to Qingzhou, why are you here? You're still hiding outside and eavesdropping, isn't it a guilty conscience?"

"I just came back from Qingzhou, can't I? I'm not eavesdropping. I just came to see it. Is it a crime?" Su Lao Si asked with his neck stuck.

Mother Chun snorted coldly, and said: "You threw me into the river with your own hands that day, how dare you not admit it?"

"Mother, are you confused? When did I throw you into the river?" Fourth Su blamed Mother Chun for being confused.

Grandma Chun was irritated by his unscrupulous appearance, and was about to explode, when she heard Lin Sizan say, "Don't worry, Mammy, he doesn't admit it, so naturally there is a way to make him admit it."

"Fourth Su, you said you just came back from Qingzhou, which way did you come from?" Lin Siran asked.

"It's from the east gate." Su Laosi was also unambiguous, deliberately avoiding the nearest west gate to the bamboo forest.

Lin Siran nodded and asked, "What are you doing in Qingzhou?"

"Do something for Madam," said Mr. Su.

"What are you doing?" Lin Siran asked.

"It's inconvenient to tell you. What you do has nothing to do with this case." Fourth Su said confidently, "Isn't it, Master Mei?"

Mei Youwei nodded and said, "Of course there is no need to talk about irrelevant things."

"Madam said you left the capital for Qingzhou half a month ago?" Lin Siran asked.

"Yeah, what's the matter? Everyone in the Lin family knows about it." Boss Su replied generously, feeling that there was no need to lie at all.

Lin Siran smiled, and said: "So you have wings, let's go to Qingzhou, don't talk about going back and forth, even if you don't sleep, drive day and night, one way will take a month, how can you go back and forth between Qingzhou and the capital within fifteen days ? You are clearly lying!"

Fourth Su was stunned, he was so focused on making a lie, he forgot about it, Qingzhou is far away from the capital.

Mei Youwei slapped the gavel and asked, "Senior Su, why are you lying?"

"Small... the little one didn't lie on purpose, it's... because the little one lost a bag of silver that my wife entrusted me to send to Qingzhou on the way. The villain didn't go to Qingzhou, so he turned back halfway and didn't dare to go back. Going to Lin's house, the villain really didn't mean to lie on purpose, but the villain definitely didn't harm Mother Chun and the old lady!"

Fourth Su made up another lie for himself.

But he didn't know that a lie often needs countless lies to make up.

There are loopholes in lying.

"I lost a bag of silver? Where did I lose it?" Mei Youwei asked.

"Shortly after leaving the capital, I met a robber who robbed me of the money." Fourth Elder Su's words flickered.

"How much silver in total?" Mei Youwei asked.

Elder Su said: "1000 taels, there are silver notes and silver ingots, Madam asked me to take them to Qingzhou to give to my second uncle."

Mrs. Lin's second brother is in Qingzhou.

"Why didn't you report the money to the officials? Instead, you wandered outside?" Lin Siran asked.
