The unlucky county princess and the crown prince

Things really developed as the old master expected. Soon, the news that Sujia mine was flooded by debris flow and suffered heavy losses spread in Yingchuan.

The Su family plays an important role in Yingchuan. As soon as the news comes out, many businessmen who have contacts with the Su family smell out the unusual crisis and come to their homes one after another to find out the truth. The owner Su Cong is soon in a mess.

When Su Cheng heard about this, he was suspicious because he knew exactly how much the Su family's mine would lose. However, when he came to the old house again to see the old master, he was turned away. The servant said that the old master would not see anyone.

After being shut down by the old master, Su Cheng became more and more uneasy. When he thought of Qin Shizhen, who was buried in the debris flow, his heart became more and more gloomy. There was always a worry that he could not tell the truth. Qin Shizhen was not an ordinary aristocratic son. Now he died in Yingchuan, sooner or later there will be some movement and silence in the capital.

The old man said that Qin Shizhen was done by the third uncle. After thinking about it, Su Cheng decided to go to the third uncle and ask about it. Anyway, the third uncle is now the de facto head of the Su family.

Although the houses of Su's family are independent, they are interdependent and have channels. Su Cheng goes straight to the third uncle's accounting room.

It was noon. The whole yard was quiet and there was no servant to wait on. Since he began to help the third uncle deal with family affairs, Su Cheng was familiar with the place.

Third uncle does not have the habit of lunch break, whenever noon, he will check the accounts in the accounting room, at this time, no one can disturb.

When he arrived at the accounting room, Su Cheng was about to knock on the door when he heard a woman's voice inside.

Except for the third uncle, the master, and Su Cheng, who got permission, other people are forbidden to enter. How can there be women?

Su Cheng was suspicious, so he stopped and hid in the door to listen to the news.

The voice of the people inside was very light, but because it was very quiet, he could hear it clearly. Su Cheng was very curious about what woman could get permission to enter the accounting room. When he heard it clearly, he suddenly froze all over like thunder!

It's Qi!

Although Qi is not her own mother, she is also called "mother" according to her seniority.

Most of the legitimate sons born in the main room of a wealthy family do not want to call their father's steproom "mother". However, Su Cheng is gentle and kind-hearted. He doesn't mind much. He has a good relationship with Qi. They don't have much discord. Otherwise, he won't treat han'er as his sister.

However, at this time, shouldn't Qi be waiting for his father to take a nap?

Why is she here?

What happened in a short period of time makes Su Cheng such a calm man feel overwhelmed. The truth from his grandfather has been shocking. I didn't expect to see the third uncle and run into Qi here?

Su Cheng had to comfort himself. Maybe Qi's family came to find the third uncle just because of some housework. After all, Qi's family also occupies a large proportion in this interest chain.

However, self deception is self deception after all, reality will be merciless face, inside came Qi's low laughter, has a woman's unique charm.

Originally, Su Cheng was very fond of Qi. His father was in poor health and needed to be served all the year round. Although there were many servants, they were not considerate. Qi married his father as a stepmother in his prime of life and tried his best to serve his father. Therefore, he always treated his stepmother with courtesy.

But she didn't think that Qi was not so virtuous and virtuous as she appeared to be. When guatian was under Li Xia, she was locked in the accounting room with her third uncle?

No matter how stupid people are, they also understand that this matter is not so simple, otherwise, they will deceive themselves.

However, Su Cheng is not old enough to be impulsive. Instead of alerting the people inside, he calms down and continues to listen to what's going on inside. He also wants to confirm what's the relationship between Qi and his third uncle?

Qi's suppressed laughter sounded like an unusual coquettish, "stop it, I'm still in a hurry to take care of your big brother!"

The third uncle's voice was clearly heard in Su Cheng's ear. "Honglian, you haven't been here for a long time. I miss you so much. Don't go back so fast."

Honglian is Qi's boudoir name. The meaning of the third uncle's affectionate address to Qi is self-evident. Su Cheng closed his eyes. It seems that the Su family is not only sinful and disintegrated, but also filthy.

A pair of dog men and women are still flirting. Su Cheng thinks of his sick father. His father trusts Qi family so much that she is in charge of the whole family. Even the head of the family is given up to his third uncle. If he learns that he has an affair with Qi family, how can he bear the blow?

There came the sound of burning firewood. Su Cheng was disgusted. The huge Su family was so prosperous and rich that it was known as a beautiful paradise. However, he had a strong impulse to escape. He could not listen to it any more and decided to walk away.

For fear of being found out, Qi and Su Cong go back to Su's big house before Su Xiu wakes up. Su Cong is satisfied and comes out of the accounting room, but he hears that the fifth son has been here.

Su Cong was shocked. "When did you come?"

"I came here at noon, but I don't know why. I left soon. When I left, my face was very ugly."

As if a basin of cold water poured down from the top of his head, the comfort Su Cong just got from Qi's body disappeared, and his whole face immediately pulled down, which was very frightening.

The servant was frightened, "Third Master?"

Su Cong's good mood has disappeared. He waves his servant to step down. He understands that Su Cheng may have discovered his affair with Qi. If his affair with his elder sister-in-law spreads, he will not be able to accommodate him inside or outside the family.

However, Su Cong is an old man. After shock, he slowly calms down. With Su Cheng's character, even if he really finds out his affair with Qi, he won't rush to report to his elder brother. On the contrary, he gains time for himself.

Su Cong immediately repairs a letter and sends it to Qi, telling her that Su Cheng is probably aware of it and should not act rashly in the near future, so that Qi will not be caught in a private meeting with him without knowing it.

———

As Su Cong expected, Su Cheng didn't tell Su Xiu about it in time. When he came to his father's yard, a strong herbal medicine made him frown unconsciously.

Qi, who had fallen in love with his third uncle not long ago, is now gently persuading his father to drink medicine. "Master, good medicine tastes bitter and is good for illness. If you don't drink medicine, the illness won't get better."

Su Xiu didn't look at the bowl of medicine. He said irritably, "I've been drinking this medicine for more than ten years, but my body hasn't improved at all. It can be seen that any medicine is deceptive."

Qi said with a smile: "han'er is going to get married, but the master is willful. He is just like a child, and he is not afraid of making people laugh?"

If he didn't know that Qi and his third uncle had a quarrel, Su Cheng would have felt the scene very warm as before, but knowing that Qi and his third uncle had already rolled together, he could not help but feel sick at the bottom of his heart, "Dad, I'll take your medicine."

Although Qi thought Su Cheng was a little strange today, he couldn't tell what was wrong. He just said with a gentle smile, "cheng'er is busy on weekdays, but he is free today. Come on."

Su Cheng took the medicine bowl and fed his father the medicine. This time, Su Xiu was not stubborn any more. Instead, he finished the medicine smoothly.

In the process of drinking medicine, his father is very dependent on Qi. Su Cheng's heart is very unhappy. If he didn't hear Qi's affair with his third uncle, he would never have thought that this seemingly virtuous woman was so coquettish and obscene.

"Dad, the doctor said you don't stay in the house all the time. It's sunny outside. I'll accompany you to the yard." Su Cheng suggested.

"All right!" Su Xiu nodded, turned his head and said to Qi, "if we go for a walk in the yard, you don't have to accompany us."

Qi Shi agrees, the intuition of the woman tells her, very likely something happens.

After going out, Su Cheng's mind has been fighting between heaven and man. He can't bear that his father has been kept in the dark, but he worries that his father can't bear the heavy blow of being betrayed by the closest and most trusted people.

"What are you thinking, Cheng er?" Su Xiu was not a fool because he was not in good health. Seeing Su Cheng in a trance, he asked.

Su Cheng pretended to be calm with a smile, "the child is unfilial. He has been waiting on his father for less time, thanks to his mother."

"Yes Su Xiu agreed and nodded, "Qi is a good woman. Thanks to her, my body can survive until now."

Su Cheng's heart is a sour, "the child will take more time to serve his father in the future."

"A good man is ambitious." Su Xiu shook his head and said, "I'm not in good health. I can't show my ambition, but you are different. I hope you can do what I can't do more than you do filial piety in front of the bed."

Su Cheng never hesitated like this, "father, mother..."

Before his words were heard, he saw Qi coming with a smile. He was wearing a black cloak in his hand. She was very considerate and put it on Su Xiu. She said angrily, "master, the wind is so strong outside, your body can't blow."

Su Xiu said with a smile: "how can a man have a woman who is careful?"

Su Cheng sneers at the bottom of his heart, but before he has time to speak, Su Xiu urges: "Cheng Er, there are many affairs in the house. I just have your mother here. Go to work. Young people need to learn more."

Su Cheng opens his mouth, but dad doesn't look at himself at all. Instead, he holds Qi's hand. Knowing that it's futile to say anything at this time, he sighs in the bottom of his heart and turns to leave.

When he returned to his room, he unexpectedly met a man, who was the last person he wanted to see at the moment, third uncle.

The uncle and nephew, who had been close to each other, was in a tacit embarrassment. Neither Su Cong nor Su Cheng spoke.

Su Cheng's eyes at Su Cong were full of coldness, and no longer looked the same as before.

Before Su Cong came to find Su Cheng, he had a long time of preparation. He was not embarrassed. On the contrary, he was very calm. After a long time of confrontation, he took the lead in saying, "Cheng er."

Since the two sides tacit, there is no need to compromise, Su Cheng said coldly: "what's the third uncle coming to me for?"

Hearing the coldness in Su Cheng's words, Su Cong realized that he knew all about it and offered to pour him a glass of water. "Now in your heart, is the third uncle the kind of beast that violates human relations?"

Su Cheng gave a sneer, but the third uncle had self-knowledge. Before he could speak, he took the initiative to admit, "the third uncle said it himself, and I can't say anything!"

Su Cong's rich face was full of pain. "Chenger, I have to suffer."

"The last resort?" Su Cheng said sarcastically, "what's the last thing I have to do to let my third uncle and his elder sister-in-law have a quarrel with each other?"

The word "Gouji" made Su Cong's facial muscles beat twice. "Things are not what you think."

"What's that like?" Su Cheng looked at the man who was having an affair with his elder sister-in-law. He was a very respectable elder, but he was shameless and treacherous. He touched his elder sister-in-law and sneered: "Uncle San can't say that he is pitiful for Qi, can he?"

Su Cong drank a cup of tea by himself and said, "in fact, Honglian and I are in love. Originally, I wanted to marry Honglian, but elder brother shouldn't..."

"Does my father take away love with a knife?" Su Cheng's face was expressionless, coldly stopped his words below, "what you say now, I can't believe a word."

Su Cong's eyes flashed with disappointment and pain. "I know it's hard for you to believe it, but Honglian and I really loved each other at that time. But after elder brother died, he took a fancy to Honglian and decided to get married directly."

Su Cheng was not moved. "Even so, Qi's family has become his father's stepmother. No matter how unwilling you are, you shouldn't do anything worse than pig and dog."

"Better than pigs and dogs?" Su Cong said with a bitter smile, "when my elder brother knew that I liked Honglian, he forced her to marry her as a stepmother. Later, my elder brother's health was worse year by year, and Honglian was always widowed."

"It's none of your business, even if you're a widower." Su Cheng clapped his case and said, "third uncle, you are an elder I respect most in the Su family. No matter how cunning you are, you can't cover up your affair with your elder sister-in-law."

"The third uncle knew that he shouldn't, so he came to beg you!" Su Cong's expression has unspeakable humble, "Chenger, it's the third uncle. Please don't let elder brother know about this."

"If you had known today, why did you have to have?" Su Cheng did not move. He looked down at the third uncle and said, "who is Han er's father?"

Su Cong said with a bitter smile, "who else can it be? It's big brother, of course. "

"Really?" Su Cheng has doubts about Su han'er's life experience. When did Qi and his third uncle get together?

Su Cong nodded heavily, "at this time, what else can I cheat you to do? To tell you the truth, after Honglian married her elder brother, I suffered for a long time, but she has become a elder sister-in-law. If I don't give up, I have to accept the reality. "

Su Cheng didn't say a word, but looked coldly at the third uncle. Su Cong continued: "Honglian also abides by her duty and keeps a distance from me. It's only in the past two years that my eldest brother has been sick all the year round, and his medicine is not separated from his mouth, and his temperament has become strange. People are kind to Honglian in front of him, but they are always ready to beat and scold him in the back of him. I can't see it anymore. I want to help her, but I didn't hold it for a moment."
