378, mess
"Grandma Jaycee and his second aunt were checking the accounts, but suddenly there were more than a dozen yamen runners coming from the doorman, holding the government approval document, saying that our family had a murder suspect and they came to arrest him by orders! Now even my grandfather couldn't sit still and went to socialize in person. However, the yamen runners were very arrogant and did not leave any affection. They were just going to go into the mansion to search!"
There was a lawsuit for human life, and the evidence was conclusive. The Xu family was not a great official family. Who would sell its face? It would be a merciless person to take down all the people in the name of hindering official duties.
"Uncle San is still a big connection and has some friendship with the constables who are leading the charges. After all, he persuaded the yamen runners to search the outer court, and the inner court led by them and the servants of the Xu family came to search! My grandfather had swornly said that there was no such person who violated the law and discipline in our family! Who knew that the suspect was really found out from the family. The yamen runners did not pursue anything else, but only took the suspect away!" I am afraid that this was because Xu Shu helped Jingzhao Mansion to solve the abducting case two years ago, so he did not care about the Xu family's crimes.
"Does Sister Jiu know who the suspect is?"
"Who is it?" Xu Shu asked pretending to be unknown.
"It is the eldest son of the Bai family, my mother's accompanying house. Now she is in charge of her mother's dowry shop. Everyone calls him the shopkeeper Bai, that is, the man Fu Liu wants to marry before!"
Xu Sheng looked at Xu Shu calmly, as if he wanted to tell something from Xu Shu's expression, and Xu Shu slowly sipped it with a teacup, neither hurry nor slow down.
"Doesn't Sister Jiu know why the yamen runners want to take Manager Bai?"
"Because Manager Bai killed someone! You just said that the yamen runners came to the Xu family because the Xu family hid a murder suspect!"
Xu Sheng pursed his lips, "Shopkeeper Bai accidentally killed his original wife, the eldest girl of the Du family. Aunt Du sued the yamen and said that her girl did not die of illness, but was beaten to death! The yamen dug out the body of the eldest girl of the Du family from the grave and found that the bones of the eldest girl of the Du family were scarred, and it was indeed not death from illness. He also found a bloody hammer in the cellar of the Bai family. The evidence was conclusive. When the matter was exposed, Zhangguan Bai came to Xu's family to seek help, and his mother hid him in the mansion!"
Xu Xian couldn't understand why Li took such a big risk to hide a murder suspect. He was just a servant, who ignored the safety and reputation of the entire Xu family for a servant. Xu Shu knew that after killing the eldest daughter of the Du family, Bai said that he had died of illness, most of the time Li gave him. Li couldn't bear to buy Bai Zhanggui, a good person who made money, and bullied the orphan and widowed mother of the Du family, and no one could rely on him, so she helped Bai Zhanggui cover up the truth about the murder. In addition, Li's heart, the one who died was just a servant. This is the family affairs of the Xu family. She was the mistress of the family, and she had the final say on how to deal with it!
Li really ignored everything for the sake of profit. Xu Shu had long experienced this. What is etiquette, righteousness, integrity and shame, and what is the principle of human ethics. For the sake of profit, Li can all be left behind!
"You are so strict with Madam Sun, you can know so much? It seems that the Xu family is really messy and can't control the people below!" Xu Shu smiled slightly, not caring about the current situation of the Xu family.
Li was seized, Yi was coming again, and the third wife An was sent back to her ancestral home. Wang was sick and there was no one in the family who could handle the trouble. How could the subordinates not panic and could not care about anything? That was why Xu Sheng could easily find out the news and easily leave the Xu family. In normal times, such news must not be covered up tightly, so how could there be any news?
"I didn't see Madam Sun when I went back that day! Later I found out that Madam Sun went to my grandmother's place! Madam Sun was good at making medicinal food, and her grandmother's spleen and stomach were not regulating, so my father transferred Madam Sun to Songdetang to make medicinal food for her grandmother. The seventh sister was sent to her grandmother's place to serve her. My mother almost implicated the entire Xu family because of her hiding shopkeeper Bai. In anger, her grandfather locked up the entire Chunhuiyuan, and no one was allowed to enter and exit. The third sister-in-law was timid and could not control anything. The eldest family now fell apart and was no longer the eldest family before!"
Xu Shu never thought that retribution would come so quickly. She had been in chaos before she could do anything. It was such a relief!
"Sister Jiu, are you very happy? Do you feel relieved when you see the Xu family become like this now? Because of the marriage, coupled with Fu Liu's death, you hate the Xu family so much that you wish the Xu family would be in trouble!"
Even though Xu Sheng was extremely disgusted with the Xu family's hypocrisy, she felt a little sad when she saw that the Xu family was not married. She didn't want the Xu family to become like this, but she couldn't stop the Xu family from becoming like this. Xu Shu seemed to have done nothing and just made the Xu family go into chaos. It can be seen that the Xu family has broken from the bottom of her bones.
"It's not a question of hatred! I don't expect it to be unlucky, but the debt it owes must be paid back!" Xu Shu smiled faintly, "The Xu family has a kindness and nurturing me, so even if the Xu family was not good in the past, I could only accept it and endure it. But I had already paid back what I owe to the Xu family. Now, no matter what the Xu family does, it has nothing to do with me. If they hadn't forced Fu Liu to death, I wouldn't have any plans to have any contact with the Xu family when I came back this time!"
"Does that include me?" Xu Xian stared at her hand and twisted her fingertips uneasy. She envied Xu Shu, but was afraid from the bottom of her heart that Xu Shu was so calm. The Xu family ended up like this because they angered Xu Shu. She was afraid that one day Xu Shu would treat her like the Xu family.
Xu Shu knocked Xu Sheng's head, "You don't include!"
Xu Xian covered his forehead that was hit by the pain and glared. The little uneasiness in his heart also disappeared and he muttered, "I didn't want to tell you this, but I can't hold it in my words, and I guess you probably want to know this, so I told you!"
"I'm thanking you for your love. Looking back on your birthday, I will make you a bowl of longevity noodles with my own hands. It just so happened that I was 'poor', so I gave the longevity noodles a gift!"
"Come here to spend my birthday?" Xu Xian suddenly looked at Xu Shu with a pleading look, "The house is messy now. I am a child, who will care about my birthday!"
