Chapter 17

Aunt Zhang suddenly jumped out and confessed her crimes, and she recognized her crimes neatly. This scene was beyond everyone's expectations.

What Wu Nan's family said clearly pointed out that Aunt Zhang was suspected, but Aunt Zhang and Hongying had a good relationship, and everyone in the Fu family knew it.Aunt Zhang's mother died early, and she was taken care of by Hongying's mother when she was young. After she lifted her aunt, she asked Hongying for a job as an accountant in front of the eldest wife, which was justified.Hongying's hands and feet are not very clean, and she is a little petty on a daily basis, and everyone sees it, don't take it seriously, and give Saburo the right to save face.At the end of the day, for such a big thing as being greedy for 10,000+ money, it is nothing more than being expelled from the house.

Even if it is proved that Aunt Zhang raised hundreds of thousands of money to Hongying in private, based on the one-sided words of the old godmother Tianxiang, it can be concluded that Hongying took the [-] yuan to buy medicine and gave it to Aunt Zhang?

Aunt Zhang is also Saburo's biological mother.

As long as Hongying can't be found, Aunt Zhang will refuse to admit it to death, and no one can insist that she is the culprit.

It can be said that although the situation is unfavorable to Aunt Zhang, it has not been pushed to the extreme.Aunt Zhang suddenly stood up and pleaded guilty, it was really a thunderbolt.

Aunt Zhang pleaded guilty straightforwardly, and the old lady's punishment was equally straightforward.

After doing such shameless things, Aunt Zhang can no longer stay in Fu's family, but after all, it is a family scandal, and spreading it to the ears of the eldest princess will seriously hinder Sanlang's future.Fortunately, the Northland ancestral hall has compiled the genealogy, and Sanlang has been assigned to the eldest wife's name, so this matter has been dropped, and Aunt Zhang has been confined to the small courtyard since then.When the people from the Dragon Boat Festival who sent the genealogy to the capital came, Aunt Zhang went back to Tiechu Nunnery with them, to cultivate their moral character and never leave the nunnery for a lifetime.There is no burial in the ancestral land after death, and no enshrining.

This punishment, say whether it is serious or not.

Tiechu Temple was specially used to detain female family members who made mistakes. The Fu family was promoted by military merits, and the family management was very strict.But after all, she saved her life. Thinking about it, Aunt Zhang gave birth to a husband for the Fu family, which only deprived her of the right to be buried in the ancestral land as the only child of the Fu family and enjoy incense and worship.

Sure enough, the Fu family has no internal strife and is harmonious, but as long as there is a disturbance, people's lives will be swallowed.Hei Tongtong swallowed down without even hiccupping.

Aunt Shen muttered a few words to the old lady about Aunt Zhang's displeasure, but Li Ci had no objection, so she remained silent.

On the contrary, Aunt Zhang, when she was taken down by a few women with big arms and round waists, she actually stood up straight, with a sense of righteousness and confidence, without any remorse.

Seeing that she was acting like nothing had happened, a woman stepped forward and slapped her.After all, Aunt Zhang is an aunt who has enjoyed the blessings of Qingfu for more than ten years.But she quickly straightened her waist again, straightened her clothes, and did not look at the woman who slapped her, but said to the eldest wife seriously: "My servant is at fault, and I will die. I just ask my wife to look at it in the past. For the love of the saddle and the horse, treat my Saburo well."

The eldest wife wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, and said, "It's only natural, he also calls me mother after all."

After thanking the eldest lady, Aunt Zhang bowed to Aunt Shen again: "I have hurt the fourth lady, and now I pay for it with my own life. I just ask Aunt Shen to care about the only one seedling of the master, so don't embarrass Saburo."

Aunt Shen glanced at Li Ci at the side, hesitated a little, Li Ci stepped forward and said, "I promise you on behalf of Aunt Shen."

"Thank you."

Obtaining the promise, Aunt Zhang immediately turned around. Although she was a woman, her walking posture carried a sense of determination, as if a righteous man were going to die with heroism.

A trace of sadness flashed across Li Ci's heart.

……

……

Two days later, Po rose in the small courtyard of Shuangxingyuan.

Just like her confession, Aunt Zhang's death was equally refreshing.

In the middle of the night, she swallowed the hairpin and died. When the mother-in-law found out, her body was already hard.

I used the golden silk hairpin that was rewarded by my wife when I gave Saburo his birthday 13 years ago.

No suicide note.

San Lang cried so much that his eyes were red, he almost rushed to Yinfeng Pavilion to find Aunt Shen desperately, but the wives held him back with great difficulty, coupled with the tearful persuasion of the eldest wife, he retreated choked with sobs.Turning around and bumping into Wu Nan's family, she was so angry that she punched and kicked until her head was bloodied, and she still couldn't let go of her anger, so she simply took two servants to Mrs. Xiang's place to beat her up.The eldest wife knew that he was aggrieved, but it was a pity that he could not be mourned, so she had to ask the steward to handle the funeral more decently.

It's a life after all.

Li Ci looked regretful for a while.

Even though Aunt Zhang is really heinous, in San Lang's heart, she is also the only mother.

What's more, Aunt Zhang is not that person.

It's not that I haven't seen people who are righteous after killing people, but most of those people boast that they have righteousness in their hearts. Aunt Zhang is a woman who stays at home. .

Li Ci knew that since the appearance of the eldest princess 13 years ago, none of the masters in the Fu family's backyard hated Aunt Shen and the evil species she brought.The leader is the old lady, but after queuing up, no matter how hard she kills, it won't be Aunt Zhang's turn.

She also had no reason to kill herself.

It can even be said that Aunt Zhang is the least likely person in the entire Fu family to rush forward to kill Aunt Shen.She gave birth to the only male in the Fu family. In time, Saburo took over the family business. Her aunt is not the second only to the eldest wife in the backyard of the Fu family, and Lici is the water thrown by the married daughter after all.A great future is in front of her eyes, as long as she has a little brains, she won't be able to lose face because of her son's first-year-old wine.
If she is really so short-sighted, in this era where the child mortality rate is very high, there are countless ways to kill the baby in the infancy, why should she go far and wait until Si Niangzi is ten years old before doing it?

It is still such a complicated and lingering poison.

A person who is thoughtful and extremely hateful, even if he is slapped in the face by witnesses, can talk like a lily and make all kinds of sophistry, how could he stand up and plead guilty without waiting for someone to expose him?
Everything is illogical, not logical at all.

Li Ci's brain roared, and she vaguely realized that Aunt Zhang's eager confession was forced by others.

Someone wants her to bear this charge!

Someone asked her to die.

She also knew that she would definitely die after admitting to this matter, but she had never done it, so she died with a clear conscience.

She is innocent.

She traded her life for the matter to end here.

Li Ci felt sick for a while, all the battles in the backyard of Fu's family were wrapped in Chinese clothes, and it looked bright on the surface, but the bottom had long been rotten to mud.

I was so uncomfortable that I wanted to vomit, but I couldn't vomit.

"What are you thinking?"

A mellow male voice sounded, Li Ci turned his head and saw his father.

This man, who is about to know his fate, is wearing a homely green shirt at this time, holding a cup in his left hand and a pot in the right, and he is naturally at ease.

"Warm the wine for Dad."

"Yes."

Setting up the small stove, Li Ci said while warming the wine skillfully, "I don't think she is the one who hurt me."

"Oh?" Fu Zhu patted his thigh and said, "Tell Dad what you know and what you think."

"Yes."

So he said all his conjectures, Fu Zhu listened quietly, and sighed at the end.

"As you think, Aunt Zhang is innocent, but her confession is inevitable. Because this is a fairy game."

"What is the Immortal Bureau?"

"The seemingly unsolvable situation formed by the combination of various heavenly secrets and coincidences is the fairy situation."

Fu Zhu took a sip of green ant wine, green ant is not a good wine, but "green ant new fermented wine, small red clay stove. It will snow in the evening, can you drink a cup?" Generation's favorite.

After taking a sip of sour wine, Fu Zhu said leisurely:
"When I was drinking with the servant of the Ministry of Justice, I heard him talk about several so-called fairy tales. I remember one of them very clearly. A rich man with many wives and concubines but no heirs died and was hacked to death with a knife. The investigation At that time, I found that everyone in the family had a reason to kill him. His wife hated him for taking concubines and taking the blame; the concubines were either greedy for his money and begged him to die early, or there was already a husband outside; brothers hated him for being ungrateful and ungrateful. I wish I could divide the family wealth earlier... The hatred is so complicated that the case has been tried for three years without any results. In the end, a rogue was randomly arrested for political achievements. In fact, this case is not complicated, but the people in the whole yard are lying to each other. The countless side branches that have been hooked up from this have finally submerged the main line."

"Father means—"

"Aunt Zhang's death was a good one. A clean death."

Although Fu Zhu said it was good, his eyes were still a bit sad.

"Mother has indeed seen for a long time that the one in your favor is the red plum to send spring, but why did she say it? She hoped that you would die just like this. But the sky didn't do what people wanted, and when Liu Xu died, Li Ji revealed what happened three years ago again. She came out. Mother, she didn't want the eldest princess to know that she once had a red plum to send spring, so she carried out Tianxiang woman first. When Aunt Zhang stood up and confessed, she probably couldn't help but laugh out loud. "

"Shu Niang has been pinching Aunt Zhang's shortcomings and keeping silent all the time, just waiting for a good time to attack. She really hopes that Aunt Zhang will disappear. From then on, Saburo will really be her son-in-law, and no one will compete with her again. The first son."

He continued indifferently, as if he was talking about someone who had nothing to do with him.

The whole thing was a game that was set up early, but who had such great ability and made such a meticulous arrangement.

The eldest wife is a pawn on the bright side, while the old lady is a pawn on the dark side.The eldest wife managed to make Saburo completely belong to her, and no biological mother would rob her.The old lady got it three years ago and no one mentioned it anymore.

Once Aunt Zhang died, the two wives felt at ease once the matter was over.And the person in the dark is at ease.

This kind of scheming is really frightening.

After drinking another cup, Fu Zhu looked at his daughter with drunken eyes, and said with pity:
"He who is in charge of a century-old family can only play tricks and fight fiercely, which is different from ordinary shrews. The two wives of my Fu family only shed two tears, and they eliminated the serious troubles in their confidantes. Speaking of which, if it weren't for three years ago With the Eldest Princess, a person whom no one regrets to move, supporting you, even a small red plum to bring you spring can still turn the bones of you and Aunt Shen into mud."

"Li Ci, you have to study hard, keep calm and wipe out all your opponents!"

"Aunt Zhang knew that these people wanted her to die, why did she plead guilty?"

"Because...she has to die."

While sighing, Fu Zhu still showed uncontrollable tiredness.

"The Fu family says it's big or small. Apart from you, there are maids, stewards, guards, grooms, and handymen in the mansion. In addition to those who work in Zhuangzi, there are at least a hundred people, plus those from the Northland clan... ...Among the thousands of people, many of them I have never even met. I know that there are so many people in the Fu family, more or less selfish, and they are planning for the little family behind them in their own position. Taking care of the house doesn't mean that whoever makes a mistake has to be punished, and it doesn't mean that replacing someone can make things go less smoothly. Lici, you have to understand that the family has a big business and there are too many scruples. Like this Once, Saburo felt that his aunt had been greatly wronged, and hated me as a father for not giving his biological mother a head. But when he really takes care of the family, he will know what it is not easy to be in charge of the family, what is a family and everything prosper."

Fu Zhu's smile was very gentle, but Li Ci shuddered when he saw it.

He understands what the two wives are planning in private, and he probably knows who is behind the scenes.But as long as the bottom line is not touched, he can sit idly by.

In the eyes of this old fox who spent the first half of his life as a soldier and the second half of his life in court, the fight in the back house is just a child's game.

Of course, he also attaches great importance to Li Ci, so Li Ci has survived this time and again.
