Chapter 87

It is self-evident who Cao says she is.

She was really afraid of Aunt Li.

But Aunt Li was her own mother-in-law, so she couldn't resist Aunt Li.

Originally, neither she nor Fang was pregnant, so that was it.

But not long after Fang entered the house, she became pregnant and got a boy in one fell swoop.

Aunt Li became increasingly dissatisfied with her and compared her with Fang every day.

He also said that both the Fang family were so stupid and dull, not as smart as their own son, but they were so unlucky that they had a hen that couldn't even lay eggs, and so far they don't even have a boy or a half girl.

Ms. Cao accepted Aunt Li's insults every day.

How could she bear it?

She had really thought that it would be better if Fang's child was gone...

As long as this child is gone, she and Fang will be the same, and Aunt Li will feel more comfortable and treat her better.

She just wants her life to be easier.

However, she also saw how much Mr. Fang cared about her son.

She knew in her heart that if the child was gone, Fang would not be able to survive.

So, after much hesitation, she found a familiar warlock and asked for a soul-leaving talisman.

This soul-leaving talisman will only make the child sick, the soul is incomplete and stupid, but it will not kill the child.

She used this spell after confirming again and again that it would not kill the child.

She just thought that if Aunt Li saw this child, who had been lingering on the hospital bed and was not easy to raise, she would feel better.

If Aunt Li feels better, Cao's life will naturally be easier.

That's all she wanted.

That's why, when she heard that her child had died, she was so frightened and horrified that she came to check if there was anything wrong with the charm.

"Rumei, believe me, I am serious... I have never thought about taking the life of my child..."

Mrs. Cao looked at Mrs. Fang with tears in her eyes and knelt down.

Mrs. Fang looked at Mrs. Cao, speechless.

She felt sorry for her child, but she also knew that Mr. Cao was a poor person.

The culprit is Aunt Li.

Mrs. Xu also saw this clearly, and slapped Aunt Li again before she could react.

Then, he quickly ordered the woman next to him to tie up Aunt Li and send her to the village, never to come back again.

Aunt Li still wanted to beg for mercy and struggled.

Mrs. Xu said impatiently: "Stop her mouth!"

The woman next to her quickly took off her socks and stuffed them into Aunt Li's mouth.

Those smelly socks almost made Aunt Li faint to death.

Aunt Li was a weak woman who was no match for those big and thick women. She couldn't break away at all, so she was dragged out of the backyard.

Mrs. Xu's expression was grave, and she turned around and glared at Ms. Cao again.

Although she felt sorry for Ms. Cao's experience, Ms. Xu still couldn't accept the thought of Ms. Cao doing something to her own grandson.

She said directly: "Let the fourth master handle this matter personally when he comes back."

When Mrs. Fang heard this, she was stunned for a moment and looked at her mother-in-law pleadingly.

Mrs. Xu knew what she wanted to say, and stared, "It's too late, so go back with the child first. Such a good child, if you have to say that he died in infancy, you are not afraid that something will really happen. He is still standing here. do what?"

The meaning of this statement was obviously that he did not want Fang to interfere.

Fang also understood that there was never any room for her to speak about such a big matter.

She looked back at Mr. Cao, hugged the child, and left first.

Mrs. Xu turned to Mrs. Guo and Mrs. Qu Yuanhou to thank her.

She heard from Mr. Fang that it was Mr. Guo and the old lady who helped to catch the mole.

However, this is a private matter of this branch after all, and it would be shameless to tell it.

Ms. Xu still begged the old lady to help conceal it and not spread it out so that the whole family would know.

The old lady naturally agreed and asked her to handle the matter.

In the Marquis of Xichang's Mansion, there can be no such thing as infighting that kills people.

Mrs. Xu knew that this was a nod to her, so she quickly agreed, feeling embarrassed.

After all, she is Cao's nominal mother-in-law.Ms. Cao is also considered her daughter-in-law, but she ended up doing something like this.

Xu's face was also dull.

But he could only suppress his anger, send the others away first, and then think of ways to deal with Cao.

Mrs. Guo helped the old lady out of the side courtyard and went all the way to the main courtyard.

After walking a few steps, the old lady suddenly asked: "Are you also asking the second lady of Pingninghou Mansion for help with today's matter?"

Since Mr. Guo asked the old lady for help, he naturally told the old lady the details.

I don’t know why the old lady asked suddenly again, but Guo still answered honestly and honestly.

The old lady slowly fiddled with the Buddhist strings in her hand and said, "That second young lady is quite capable. Even if she doesn't come to the house tonight, she may not be able to guess what happened in the Xichang Marquis' house. Tomorrow, you Bring someone to give her a generous gift, and ask her to keep the secret of the Xichang Marquis Mansion."

Guo quickly agreed.

at the same time.

Song Shiyun was sitting in the main room of Yaxuan, still waiting for news from Song Siwen.

I don't know how much time passed, but it was completely dark outside.

The yard was all lit up with lights.

Suddenly, two figures ran in from outside.

Autumn white and frost guard the porch.

He held up the lamp and took a look, it was Song Siwen and Shutong Shenyan.

Seeing them, Qiu Bai and Shuang Zhong were about to bend down and salute.

Song Siwen had already passed them like a gust of wind. As he went into the house, he shouted: "Shi Yun, Shi Yun, something happened!"

Song Shiyun was sitting in the room with the door open.

When she heard the noise, she just walked out of the inner room when she saw that Song Siwen had already rushed in with Shen Yan regardless of etiquette.

Song Shiyun saw their expressions and his face darkened, "What happened to He Yeping?"

A trace of surprise flashed in Song Siwen's eyes.

But he thought that it was Song Shiyun who sent someone to ask him to inquire about He Yeping.

Song Shiyun was not surprised to guess this.

Song Siwen then said: "Yes, I just sent Shen Yan to the He family, but the He family said they didn't see Ye Ping, saying that Ye Ping hasn't returned yet!"

Song Shiyun paused and calculated secretly, "The He family is only two blocks away from Qu Yuanhou's mansion. Normally, he should have gone back by this time."

Song Siwen didn't notice a single detail.

That is, Song Shiyun, who was supposed to know nothing about the affairs of the capital, clearly knew the distance between the Quyuan Marquis Mansion and the He family.

His mind was now filled with He Yeping's affairs, and he had not noticed this, so he asked: "Yes, I originally thought that Yeping should have gone back long ago. But when Shenyan arrived at the He family, the He family said that there was no such thing. I saw He Yeping going back."

Shen Yan nodded quickly and repeated to Song Shiyun and Song Siwen the exact words that the He family told him.

Song Shiyun frowned and said, "He Yeping is traveling today. Did he bring a groom or a book boy with him?"

"There is a coachman." Shen Yan said quickly: "But the coachman didn't go back either."

When he went to He's house to ask, he asked about this incident.

Song Shiyun frowned, "The coachman didn't go back either?"

"Yes, Yeping and the coachman didn't go back. The He family didn't know what happened. They thought Yeping was having some poetry meeting outside today. If I hadn't sent someone to ask, they wouldn't have known that Yeping was missing."

Song Siwen was so anxious that he stamped his feet.

In the capital, there are many talented people at the feet of the emperor. In addition, it will be spring next year. In the past year, the capital has been gathering with talented people from all walks of life.

Various poetry gatherings are also held one after another.

If it hadn't been for the funeral ceremony of Princess Shiyu, the capital would be bustling now.

Even in times of national mourning, literati would have gatherings in private.

So when the He family saw that He Yeping had not returned, they thought that He Yeping had gone to a classmate's house or participated in some poetry meeting. They did not expect that He Yeping was missing.

"Everything is fine, how could someone disappear?"

Song Siwen was so anxious that he asked, "Shi Yun, tell me, did something happen to Ye Ping? Did you already know something when you asked me to send someone to find Ye Ping?"

Song Shiyun pursed his lips and said, "I feel that something must have happened because He Yeping used my amulet."

When Song Siwen heard this, his heart skipped a beat, "Then what should we do? Ye Ping... couldn't something big really happen?"

Song Shiyun shook his head slightly, "It's hard to confirm now. Has the He family found someone?"

Song Siwen nodded, "The He family has sent people to look for people everywhere, and I have also sent people to look for them, but I don't know if they can be found..."
