141, Suspect
When he came back from the palace, Xu Shu realized that the atmosphere at home was strange. When he went to pay his respects to Li, Li seemed to be holding back his anger. Of course, this anger was not coming to her. When Xu Shu told Li that Xu Ting would not have to enter the palace, although Li breathed a sigh of relief for a moment, he drooped his face in an instant.
Yuanyuan was still alert and found out about the incidents of Xu Jiasheng today. When he heard that Xu Shu had come back, he hurried to the outside of Chunhuiyuan to wait. As soon as Xu Shu came out, he told Xu Shu about Xu Sheng's flirting with Song Wencai.
"Miss, something big happened at home today!"
Xu Shu asked while walking back, "What happened? I think my mother's attitude is strange today. Sister Qi doesn't have to enter the palace anymore. My mother didn't smile even if she had such a big deal. I guessed that my mother was in a difficult situation!"
"This is not an ordinary difficult thing!" Yuanyuan shrank his neck, "Today, Mrs. Song Er brought Mrs. Song Liu to our house to propose marriage, but..." Yuanyuan looked embarrassedly at Xu Shu who was waiting for her next sentence with curiosity, and then said, "As a result, Mr. Song Liu molested Miss Ten in the garden, and was caught by his wife and uncle's wife!"
"What? Song Wencai molested the Ten Sisters?" Xu Shu stopped anxiously, her tone was unconcealedly surprised. The wind beside her staggered and almost fell to the ground.
Yuanyuan sighed and nodded, "It's true! I thought it was a rumor at first, but later I went to ask Qiaoyun around Miss Ten. It was true that Miss Ten's clothes were torn to pieces when she was helped back by Miss Seven!"
"Sister Qi is here too?" Xu Shu frowned slightly.
Yuanyuan explained, "Miss Qi went to find Miss Shi, but Miss Shi was not in the house and was about to tell her wife. She met her wife and uncle's wife on the way, so she took Miss Qi to find Miss Shi!"
"The tenth sister was ordered by her mother to practice etiquette and could not go out at will. How did she leave the room? Even though she sneaked out, she was no longer in the room. Didn't her girls show any abnormality?" Xu Shu felt something was wrong.
"Miss Ten said that she saw a black shadow in the back window and followed her out. She was knocked out before she caught up. After that, she didn't know anything! The wife and uncle's wife asked Miss Ten repeatedly, and she said so many times!"
"The Tenth Sister is not that brave. When she sees a black shadow, she dares to follow her alone. She will only be so scared that she calls all the girls and women to come over to gain courage!" Xu Shuyue felt something was wrong.
"Yes, yes!" Yuanyuan suddenly realized, "Last time a cat ran over at the door scared Miss Ten and fell to the ground. She hadn't been to Shulin Pavilion for a whole month since then!"
"Miss is Miss Ten is lying?"
Xu Shu nodded affirmatively, "Ten Sisters must be hiding something! But half of her words were right. She did turn out from the back window, so she did not disturb the girls who were serving outside. But she did not see a black shadow, but someone called her out from the back window. She also trusted this person very much. For this person, she did not hesitate to lie to her mother and cover up the truth that she was flirting with others!"
There are not many people in the Xu family who can be so protected by Xu Sheng, and a figure gradually appears in Xu Shu's mind.
Wan Feng inexplicably remembered the words Xu Shu heard from the wall when she fainted in the garden, "Miss Seven..."
"Seventh Sister..." Xu Shu said with difficulty, "Seventh Sister is indeed very suspicious. She also lives in Shaohuaju, and knows the structure of Shaohuaju. She also knows the layout of Qimei's room. She can call Shimei away without being revealed without being seen. Moreover, afterwards, she was the first person to contact Shimei. She had enough time to convince or deceive Shimei to cover up the truth! Moreover, the Song family could never force her to marry her after birth. She was the biggest beneficiary in this matter, and she had enough motivation to do these..."
Xu Shu covered her chest and murmured, "But I really don't want it to be her... Even though I'm just a blind man with value in her eyes, the tenth sister has always regarded her as the closest person..."
"Miss..." Wanfeng called out with pain.
Xu Shu stretched out a hand to stop the intention of Feng Feng to support her, and took a deep breath and straightened her back, "Now is not the time to care about the truth of the matter! The Song family..." Xu Shu couldn't help but remember what Zhou Jin said in the palace today, "It's really troublesome!"
Wanfeng knew that his lady was going to take care of this business again, so he grabbed Xu Shu with distress and said, "If the master and his wife are worried about this matter, please don't worry about it. Miss. Let's go back to the village and live again. We will never come back. If we don't come back, we won't know what happened here. If we don't know these, we don't have to worry about it!"
"The life in Zhuangzi is so comfortable. The months in Zhuangzi are the most comfortable time I have lived in so many years!" Xu Shu's face showed infinite nostalgia, "But God is heartless and doesn't want me to have this restless life safely! When did I come back, I was willing to come back? But they came to the door, and I have to come back. I don't know when they start. When they encounter unsolvable problems, they will always think of me first. Should I be grateful for their trust and reliance for me, or do I hate their endless demands and exploitation of me?"
Xu Shu's feelings for the Xu family are very complicated. At the beginning, the happiness that radiates from the bones gradually fades away, and complaints and troubles follow. But even so, she is still willing to sacrifice her life to save the only legitimate son of the eldest son. It is her responsibility as her sister and the eldest son. She is willing to live to fulfill this responsibility with her life. However, when she is dying, she falls into darkness when she sees the most vicious side of human nature. She cannot help but hate her, but some people cannot hate her. She lives in the torment of love and hate every day, and lives like a year.
Wan Feng couldn't speak anymore. Seeing Xu Shu's thin back seemed so lonely and helpless in the afterglow of the setting sun, such a thin body supported the entire Xu family countless times. The reason why the Xu family is today's Xu family is because of Xu Shu.
"I am a blind man. If I want to live a better life in such a family, I will put in a thousand times more effort than others. But they never care about the hard work behind me. They will only let those who do this and that thing do well. I am Miss Ninth of the Xu family. If I can't do it well, then I will be the blind man in the family... But I am not willing to be a blind man..." Even though Xu Shu has been a blind man for many years, the light of the past has always been in her heart. How could she not be resentful at all?
