All the ancestors in the capital begged me to be a substitute

Chapter 137
Thanks mom is dead.

Lian Qiao lay on Xie's mother and cried out, "Grandma, wake up, wake up...Grandma..."

No one in the hall thought that such a living person would die so quickly.

Shen Lingxi felt a little regretful, if she had just made a move, she would have felt the pulse of Xie's mother, so she would be able to know what was wrong with her.

It's not like watching a human life die in front of his eyes.

She was secretly regretting when she suddenly saw the dead soul of Xie's mother slowly drifting away from the body.

Xie's mother's dead soul looked back at her body, patted her heart, and looked relieved.

Shen Lingxi raised her eyebrows, and looked at the old ancestor calmly. The two of them tacitly set their eyes on Mama Xie at the same time.

Chu Yan, who was sitting at the top, was keenly aware of Shen Lingxi's abnormality, and a flash of amazement flashed in his eyes.

He looked at Lian Qiao who was weeping bitterly in the hall.

At this moment, even if there were doubts about Lianqiao, it would be inconvenient to continue asking.

"Take it down and let the magistrate send someone to do an autopsy." He ordered Chao Chunjun.

Chunjun responded, and hurriedly called a few embroiderers, lifted the body of Xie's mother, supported the weeping Lianqiao, and walked out.

Su Xian let out a long sigh, took out a charm from the cloth bag, and handed it to Chun Jun, "Thank you mother for serving her mother all these years, for your hard work, please pass this charm to the family who takes care of her funeral. After the autopsy, put the talisman into the coffin to ensure that mother's soul enters reincarnation early."

Chun Jun responded, and was about to reach out to take it——
"No need." Shen Lingxi said quietly from the side, "Mother Xie is right in front of her, and your reincarnation talisman probably won't be of much use to her."

When Chunjun heard this, he opened his eyes in an instant, both surprised and bewildered.

What does it mean?
Knowing that he didn't know about Shen Lingxi's ability to see ghosts, Chu Yan waved his hand at him, "Go and do your work, and let those people in Chenxiangyuan who are waiting outside also leave."

Chunjun ate half of the melon, feeling like being scratched by a cat, but he didn't dare to ask any more questions, so he hurriedly backed away.

Su Xian had heard Shen Lingxi's words, and his face was full of disbelief.

He stood up, stretched out his hand again, squeezed the compass tightly, and kept probing where Shen Lingxi's eyes were.

He stared at the pointer on the compass without blinking.

The pointer was the same as when he used it to detect the dead souls of the ancestors just now, it didn't move at all.

"Move... move... move..."

Su Xian was a little anxious, couldn't help pointing at the pointer on the compass, and urged, "You should move..."

Seeing this, Chu Yan pinched his brows quite speechlessly.

And Shen Lingxi's eyes, like the dead souls of the old ancestors, always focused on the dead soul of Xie's mother.

Mama Xie was in a very broken mood at the moment.

In any case, she never imagined that her own people were already dead.

But after her soul left her body, not only did she not get the relief she imagined, but she also saw her old master who had been dead for many days.

And, the aggressive young "Embroiderer" before his death.

"Old ancestor..." Mother Xie thumped and knelt on the ground, crying and apologizing, "I'm sorry, slave."

After getting rid of the disease-ridden body, Mama Xie even spoke a lot more fluently.

A pair of eyes were erratic, and they kept sneaking glances at Shen Lingxi.

"Don't cry, don't cry." The old ancestor pretended to be unaware of everything, and said in a gentle voice: "Now you and I are people on Huangquan Road, so there is no need to be a master and a servant. Get up quickly and tell me, Lianqiao What's the matter with the girl, you just need to tell me the truth, I will let Lingxi girl save Lianqiao, don't worry."

It's okay if she doesn't say this, but when she says this, Xie's mother's eyes flicker.

Lingxi girl... Could it be that the embroiderer in front of me is the famous Daoist Miaoling?

"Qiao'er...was forced, and she didn't want to tell lies in front of the embroiderer. They are all second grandmas, and second grandma insisted on making her testify. She has seen second grandma go up the mountain."

"Why is this?" The old ancestor pretended to be surprised.

Mother Xie lowered her head: "She said that she would testify on the spot that Master Ninth was your murderer, so that no one would suspect her."

This time, the ancestor was really surprised.

"So, the person who pushed me down the mountain was really girl Yan?" She asked with a complicated expression.

Originally, although she said that Xie Wanyan was the most suspect, but in her heart, she was still willing to believe that her grandniece, whom she had always loved, was not such a vicious person.

But now, the old ancestor is still very sad when he confirms this matter from Mama Xie's mouth.

"It's her." Mother Xie took out her handkerchief and wiped her tears, "You forgot that she did this once with the money from the central government at the beginning of last year, and was discovered by the grandma and sued you, and you even moved the private treasury For her, she made an account balance for her. She swore to you over and over again, saying that she would stop now, and never dare to do it again. But how could she give up so easily when she has the sweetness. "

"You don't know, ever since the Second Mistress learned that there was a loophole in the withdrawal of money between the Ninth Master and the accountant, she privately engraved the Ninth Master's seal, and conspired with the shopkeeper of Wanju Building to transfer part of the money to put tiger skin money. "

"The Wanju building and the bank where the money is stored are both property of the Zhao family. The cousin of the second grandmother's family works in the bank. It is here for foreign cooperation and has earned a lot of money."

"If she keeps the money she earns, that's all. Whoever imagined it, she is an insatiable greedy person. She uses the money she earns as principal and lends it out. As a result, something happened to the Zhao family and all the money was wiped out." It's in the water."

"Lianqiao also found out by accident a few days ago that Second Mistress had a private meeting with her cousin outside the residence, and that's when she found out about this matter. Lianqiao came back and told me that I planned to report to you, but Second Mistress found out. Second Mistress asked his cousin to dress up as Master Ninth and attack you. Afterwards, he threatened us that if we didn't do what she said, we would sell Lianqiao to a brothel."

"The slave girl's illness was also forced out by her in this way."

At the end, Mother Xie cried until she couldn't make a sound, "Ancestor, after all, you still believed in the wrong person. You shouldn't have considered Xie's family's face and settled the debt for her. If she had learned her lesson earlier, she wouldn't be the person she is today. How far!"

Shen Lingxi was listening, frowning.

First of all, she didn't expect that Xie Wanyan had a criminal record.

In the past, he had transferred money from the public office to lend money, so he probably wouldn't give up easily.

But since she has a criminal record, she has no time to hide when she encounters an investigation, so how can she jump out as a witness in a hurry.

This is simply self-destruct.

With such a scheming mind, is he really someone who can secretly take out the public money for loans without being discovered?

Secondly, she always felt that thanking her mother was a bit weird.

Judging from what she said, even if the embroiderer continued to press her, Lianqiao only needed to tell the truth.

After all, their grandparents were the ones coerced by Xie Wanyan. If Xie Wanyan was arrested, it would be a relief for them.

But just now, Xie's mother looked like she was using her own death to delay the interrogation time...

It's really puzzling.

Shen Lingxi's silence made Chu Yan and Su Xian very curious about what they were talking about.

At this moment, Chunjun suddenly turned back and reported: "The person who went to check the bank account has returned. The accountant who was in charge of the account was discovered just now. He died in a house in the suburbs of Beijing. It was Second Grandma Xie's family. cousin of..."
