Chapter 196 Confession
Taozhi called out twice in a row, but there was no movement in the room, so he turned around and whispered, "Brother Zhujiu, Sister Taoye may have fallen asleep, so hurry up and leave. If anyone finds out, my life will be lost."
"It's cold here, is she ill from the cold?" A young man outside the window whispered concerned, and the tied peach leaves in the room immediately opened his eyes and looked at the window.
"How can it be better to be locked here? Hurry up, the old lady at the door will die when she comes back from the toilet." Taozhi urged in a low voice.
"Ninth Brother..." Tao Ye hurriedly rolled under the window and responded in a low voice.
There is a door! Jiang Erye, who was squatting under the window, pushed Huyantu and his son. Jiang Ling took a step forward, a misty figure was printed on the window, Huyantu continued to call out, "I heard that Concubine Li was arrested and burned across the hospital, so she came over, is my sister okay?"
Huyantu felt embarrassed for a servant to speak like this, but Jiang Houer said that Zhujiu had been with Meng Tingwan for many years and learned the stinky habit of being a scholar, so he just spoke like that.
Taoye couldn't stand up, so he could only look up at the shadow on the window, and said eagerly, "Ninth Brother, save me."
"If you grit your teeth and don't say anything, they won't kill you." Huyantu said in a low voice, "If you involve me, we're all finished."
"Don't worry, I didn't say anything, they couldn't find you." Taoye promised in a low voice that after her death failed, she would wait for Zhu Jiu to survive.
"Okay! I'll find a way to get you out as soon as possible."
Huyantu's voice just fell, when he heard the old woman's voice coming from the door, "Who is it? Come, come quickly—"
Tao Ye was anxious, "Ninth Brother, go!"
"I'm leaving." After Huyantu finished speaking, Jiang Ling immediately left the window, followed by a commotion, and then the sound of "Zhu Jiu" being caught.
After Jiang Erye and his son returned to the west courtyard, Jiang Liubian helped his brother take off the servant hat on his head and changed his black round neck robe, while asking about the situation.
"Children's family, don't ask about this." Jiang Erye didn't want his daughter to know these disgusting things.
Jiang Liu turned his head to look at his brother, and when he saw his brother nodding lightly, he knew that the matter was true, and asked, "Dad, the next step is to interrogate Taoye, right?"
"What is the trial? Bamboo Jiu is dead, and they won't admit it even after the trial!" Jiang Erye was very angry. He wanted to grab Meng Huizhou's collar and ask clearly why the Meng family hated the Jiang family so much. Even such a vicious method was used!
Jiang Muyan said softly, "Father, if Zhujiu is involved in this matter, he must not have died. First, the Meng family will not kill people in the first month to find bad luck. Second, Zhujiu has been with Meng Tingwan for so many years, and Meng Tingwan is very worried. Respect him and won't kill him easily. Zhujiu should have been hidden by the Meng family or sent away."
The Meng family acted ruthlessly, and Erye Jiang did not agree with the eldest daughter's words.
Jiang Liu said again, "Let's ask this matter clearly, and when it's time to settle the accounts, we will take out a piece to settle the bill, which is not bad. Dad, we can separate two rooms, one room to interrogate Zhu Jiu, and the other to interrogate Tao. Ye, as long as Zhujiu pours dirty water on the peach leaves, Liu’er will not believe that the peach leaves will not do anything.”
"There's nothing else to do tonight, let's try it?" Jiang Liu shook his father's hand and said.
Just try it, Erye Jiang stood up, "You two are resting, Ling'er comes with Wei father."
After daddy and brother left, Jiang Liu and Jiang Muyan went back to the boudoir to sleep. I got up too early today, and I accompany my grandmother to see guests during the day. The two little guys didn't sleep, and they were already sleepy.
Although Jiang Liu didn't believe in the curse of hatred, but Concubine Li's room really made her feel very uncomfortable. Now that Daddy has set fire to a clean fire across the courtyard, Jiang Liu felt at ease, yawned and rubbed his sister's side, closed his eyes and went to sleep.
"Aunt Xue didn't come back after being taken away by her grandmother, and she won't come back in the future." Jiang Muyan hugged her sister and whispered, "Neither Aunt Li nor Aunt Xue will come back."
"Yeah." Jiang Liu responded, and Auntie Li didn't need to say anything else. Auntie Xue lived with her in the same yard every day, and there was a clever maid like Taozhi by her side. Auntie doesn't know.
Aunt Xue knew it, but she watched with a cold eye and said nothing to her grandmother and father. Just because of this, Daddy wouldn't keep her.
Jiang Muyan said again, "They don't come back, and there is no one to serve in my father's room, so Jiang Ling doesn't have to go to the front yard."
Yes, and this one, Jiang Liu opened his eyes.
"Father will go to Jiang's Village after the fifth day of the first day of the new year, and there are only two of us left in the west courtyard. Why don't we let Jiang Ling stay for a while longer. When my father returns from the exam, it will not be too late for him to move to the front courtyard. What do you think, sister?" Jiang Muyan asked. sister to discuss.
Jiangliu nodded, "Okay."
"After the fifth day of the new year, let's check everything carefully, and also check the mother's dowry. There must be no more dirty things." Jiang Muyan yawned, "Go to sleep, auntie should come back tomorrow for New Year's greetings, let's I also have to go to my grandmother's house to pay New Year's greetings."
The second day of the new year is the day when married daughters go home to pay New Year's greetings. As long as they are not far-off daughters, they will rush back to their parents' home on this day to pay New Year's greetings to their parents. At this time last year, the Jiang family was still in crisis, and the uncle did not allow the aunt to come back to pay New Year's greetings. Now that the Jiang family has recovered, the aunt will definitely come back, and the uncle will come back with him.
For this snobbish uncle, Jiang Liu still wanted to see the true face of Mount Lu. But my aunt has to rush over from Le County. Even if I go out early, it will be noon when we arrive at Jiang's house. Jiang Liu and his elder brothers and sisters are going to Wang's house to pay New Year's greetings, so they should not be able to meet them.
After having breakfast the next day, Jiang Liu sat in the Wang family's carriage and couldn't wait to ask his brother, "How was last night?"
Of course Jiang Ling wouldn't hide it from her sister, "Tao Ye recruited, she and Zhu Jiu were from the same hometown. After the death of the fourth sister, she followed Li Yiniang to the temple to burn incense, and it was Zhu Jiu who took the initiative to find her and gave her advice" to appease her. 'Aunt Li. Tao Ye is responsible for speaking to Aunt Li, and Zhu Jiu does everything else. In the past few years, she has also disclosed the news in our house to Zhu Jiu."
Jiang Muyan's little face was tensed, "You mustn't spare her lightly for this thing that eats inside and out!"
Jiang Liu held her sister's thin hand, "Grandma won't spare her, sister don't tell grandma about it."
"Why?" Jiang Muyan was puzzled.
The story of Yansheng spread, and there were all kinds of harm and no benefit, so the family did not tell them, only that Concubine Li had done something wrong. The reason why they knew so much was because Jiang Cai told his brother, and his brother told them again. After grandma found out, if she told her aunt and others again, it would inevitably be another uproar. Jiang Liu didn't tell her sister about this, she just said, "Grandma will be sad when she finds out. It's a big New Year's Eve, we should make grandma happy. When we find out the culprit, it won't be too late to tell grandma."
"Alright." Jiang Muyan said in a serious tone, "Meng's family is too bad, I don't want to go to my second uncle's house to see my second aunt."
Knowing that Aunt Li secretly worshipped Yansheng that killed people was sent in by the Meng family, Jiang Muyan decided that it was the Meng family who killed her mother, and wished that the Meng family would all die.
Jiang Ling glanced at Jiang Muyan who couldn't hold back, and said coldly, "We don't have to go, they will come, and Mrs. Meng will go back to Meng's house after a while. You have to hold your breath, if you let Mrs. Meng see that something is wrong, they will If you can't hold your breath, go back now, and my sister and I will go to the Wang's house."
Jiang Muyan clenched her sister's hand, "I can."
