Chapter 138 Our family is what you say
Chapter 138 You have the final say in our family
Author: Bai Xiaoyuan
As soon as Chunjun finished speaking, Shen Lingxi clearly saw that the look on Xie's mother's face relaxed.
A few more doubts arose in Shen Lingxi's heart.
This is wrong, very wrong.
As soon as Mama Xie mentioned the second grandma’s cousin who was in charge of the bank account, the “cousin” died.
It's like it was arranged.
It's too much of a coincidence.
Shen Lingxi looked at Chu Yan, "Let's go take a look at the corpse of the accounting clerk."
Seeing her solemn expression, Chu Yan guessed that there must be something fishy going on, and nodded in agreement.

In this compartment, Mrs. Zeng led everyone out of the yard of the embroiderer, and ordered someone to bring a soft sedan, and asked her second son Su Chengming to personally take Xie Wanyan back to Xiyue Pavilion, and also asked someone to invite Doctor, diagnose and treat Xie Wanyan.
Su Chengming is in his early twenties, handsome and fair-skinned, tall and slender. He has a heroic look between his brows and looks very high-spirited.
He carried Xie Wanyan into the upper room, placed her gently on the bed, and dismissed the servants who followed behind.
"Did you really see clearly that it was Uncle Jiu who pushed grandma off the rockery from behind?" Su Chengming poured a glass of water for Xie Wanyan and handed it to her lips with his own hand.
Xie Wanyan's eyes were red and she drank slowly, her tears falling like beads. Her voice was soft and hoarse, "In front of so many people, how dare I, a weak woman, lie? You and I are one husband and wife, and even you Don’t you believe me?”
Seeing her crying again, Su Chengming hurriedly twisted the veil from the side.
"Aren't I worried about you, husband? How can I not believe you?" He gently wiped away the tears from the corners of Xie Wanyan's eyes and said hesitantly: "It's just that although Uncle Jiu is a promiscuous person, he has been very close to the emperor since he was a child. You stand up now Testify against him. If he really did it, then that's all. If the evidence found by the embroidery envoy is not enough to convince the public, I'm afraid..."
Xie Wanyan frowned, "The account books in the house are all signed by him, and the accounts on Wanjulou's tiger skin money are clearly his name."
"Even if the Embroidered Clothes Envoy traces the bank account, it is his Su Xian's seal to withdraw the silver. In addition, as an eyewitness, with all the personal evidence and physical evidence, if it still fails to convince the public, then the Embroidered Clothes Envoy is deliberately partial. Is it possible? Do you still want to say that I falsely accused him?"
Xie Wanyan couldn't hide her excitement when she finished speaking, her pretty face turned slightly red, and she looked at Su Chengming with watery eyes, a little aggrieved.
"That's what I asked to make you anxious." Su Chengming smiled coquettishly and coaxed softly, "You are from the Xie family, and you are a cousin to His Royal Highness. No matter what, he will not embarrass you."
Xie Wanyan sat up, reached out to hold her husband's hand, and said with tears in her eyes: "Anyway, Erlang, you just need to remember that everything I did is for you. When the case is concluded and my aunt is buried, you can take me there. Tongwuguan. I don’t want to stay in the capital anymore, not even for a moment. I just want to be with you..."
"I'm going to guard the gate, not for fun. How can I take my family with me..." Su Chengming looked embarrassed. Seeing that she was about to cry again, he quickly changed his tone, "Even if I want to take you to my father and mother..."
"You don't have to worry about this. I have a way to get them to agree." Xie Wanyan wiped away her tears and said firmly.
Su Chengming's eyes flickered, "Okay, okay, I'll listen to you. You have the final say in our family."
Hearing what he said, Xie Wanyan burst into laughter and nestled in his arms like a bird.

At the same time, Mrs. Zeng also brought her eldest son Su Chengye and eldest daughter-in-law Zheng Yurong back to the mourning hall, kneeling in front of the mourning to keep vigil for the ancestor.
Su Chengye was twenty-six years old. He had led troops in drills all year round. His skin was tanned, his facial features were similar to those of his father, and he had thick eyebrows and big eyes. He was about the same height as Su Xian, and he was very strict in doing things, which was somewhat similar to Su Xian.
When there was no one around, Su Chengye asked in a low voice, "Mother, did the second sister-in-law really see the murderer? Uncle Jiu has always regarded money as an extraneous thing, how could he kill his grandmother because of such a thing... My son always feels that this matter
There’s something strange about it.”
Mrs. Zeng's eyes were lowered and she knelt upright on the table. When she heard the words, her eyes did not move, "The second daughter-in-law comes from a famous family and knows the rules best. If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, how could she say nonsense in front of others."
She sighed softly and said warmly, "This matter has nothing to do with our eldest brother. Whether your uncle is really wronged or falsely wronged, we will have the embroidery envoy to verify it. It is not convenient for us to comment. We can concentrate on handling your grandmother's funeral."
."
Su Chengye frowned deeply, his face full of disapproval.
"My father and uncle Ninth are from the same mother and father, and we have never separated our families. We have both prospered and suffered losses, so how can we stay away from it so easily."
Grandma Zheng Yurong stretched out her hand, gently tugged on his sleeve, and reminded him, "My husband is stationed at Tongwuguan all year round and rarely returns to his home. He knows very little about what is going on in his home. This matter is ultimately between our ancestors and my ninth uncle."
The second sister-in-law is already involved in the grudges. If we continue to meddle in our own affairs, we may be self-defeating and even get burned..."
"Rights and wrongs are determined by themselves. How can we use words like 'self-defeating' and 'getting burned' to judge." The more Su Chengye thought about it, the more wrong he became. He stood up, pulled back his sleeves, and walked out of the mourning hall, "I'll go
Looking for my father, I can't let Uncle Jiu suffer the injustice no matter what."
"Husband... Husband..." Mrs. Zheng couldn't hide the anxious look on her face.
Mrs. Zeng raised her eyes and looked at her son's hurried away figure. She sighed and shook her head, then lowered her eyes again, "Well, he has a temper that even nine cows can't control. If he doesn't listen to advice, just let him be."
Mrs. Zheng looked at her mother-in-law with a complicated expression, but finally did not dare to say anything and responded in a low voice.

Shen Lingxi gave Su Xian a human skin mask and asked him to pretend to be an embroiderer, and left Wu Anbo's mansion with her and Chu Yan.
Leaving with them were the souls of their ancestors and Mother Xie.
After they left, the embroiderer asked the widow to do an autopsy, and then released the news that Xie's mother had died violently.
At the same time, Lian Qiao was kind enough to help Lian Qiao, who was crying so hard that she couldn't stand up, and sent Xie's mother's body back to Xihua Hutong, which is located on the west side of Wu'an Bo Mansion and where people live under the Bo Mansion.
Xie's mother's home is in the house at the end of the alley.
Xie's mother's husband's surname was Cheng. The man died early, and his only son Cheng Shi stayed with Wu Anbo at the border all year round, taking care of the trivial matters in the general's palace at the border.
Lian Qiao's biological mother died in childbirth when she gave birth to Lian Qiao.
There are only two people in the family, grandfather and grandson, who depend on each other.
Mother Xie is the old lady who served our ancestors. She worked hard in the house and gained great honor.
The embroiderer sent her body home. After receiving the news, all the houses in the uncle's house sent people to the Cheng family to help with Xie's mother's funeral.
Lian Qiao cried heartbrokenly. In full view of everyone, she fainted from crying and was carried into the inner room.
