Chapter 254 Comfortable

Yuan'er felt the shadows slowly approaching her. She couldn't help but shivered. She didn't dare to look at the surroundings carefully. She gritted her teeth and speeded up, silently chanting the sutra she had heard in her heart.

After walking for a while, the cold wind blew her through. The warehouse was not far away. Yuan'er breathed a sigh of relief. The warehouse was under the supervision of the warehouse on weekdays, and the manager was in the room next to her. She was not so panicked when she could see other people.

Yuan'er raised his hand and knocked on the door: "Mom Sun, I am Yuan'er, the maid beside Aunt Gui, here to get incense and candles."

No one answered.

Yuan'er knocked on the door again, but still received no response. Yuan'er relied on her courage to push the door open, and the room was pitch black and there was no one there.

Where has Manager Sun gone? Yuan'er stood at the door with a lamp on her back and didn't know what to do. She just waited outside for a while on weekdays, but now she was in a hurry to use things, and she was very scared and wanted to finish the errands immediately and go back to the yard. At least there were more people there.

Yuan'er thought about walking two steps into the room. Maybe Sun's mother was asleep, so she just wanted to wake up Sun's mother...

Just as Yuan'er thought of this, the door behind her suddenly closed with a "snap".

Yuan'er's heartstrings were already tense tightly. When she heard the sound, she almost screamed. Her hair was standing upright. She hid two steps to the side, and she bumped into the wall next to her, staring at the two doors of the room in a daze.

The door of the house is closed as if it has been carefully closed.

It must have been the wind blowing. Yuan'er clenched her fists and tried her best to calm down, but her heartbeat could not be controlled.

Another cool breeze blew over and fell on the skin of her neck. Yuan'er turned her head unconsciously to see. What caught her eye in the dark was a figure hanging in the air, her feet swaying around.

"Ah..." Yuan'er screamed and wanted to run out, but her feet seemed to be stuck to the ground and could not be lifted.

Yuan'er's legs became weak and she knelt on the ground.

It was the lady, and the lady came back, and the lady asked for her life.

Yuan'er cried and shouted, "Madam, please spare me, Madam... I'm not a servant, it has nothing to do with me, I don't know anything... When I went there, I only saw Huixiang standing in the yard. Although there was a noise in the room, I didn't know what happened."

Yuan'er kept kowtowing on the ground, but at this moment, she suddenly felt something cold, touched her shoulders, and slowly moved towards her neck.

It was a dead hand, trying to hold her neck.

Yuan'er was almost so scared that she fainted. Her strong desire to survive made her kneel forward and escape, crawling and said, "Later... Later... Huixiang entered the door and lit the lamp. I saw... I saw someone hanging on the beam... I didn't know it was a wife at that time. If I knew it, I would definitely shout for help. Madam, you believe me, don't come to me!

It must be Huixiang who harmed his wife. It was all done by Huixiang. The wife went to find her and asked Huixiang for her life."

Yuan'er was talking nonsense, and suddenly felt a light slowly falling in front of her. Huixiang shrank her neck and raised her head tremblingly. Then the light saw Cheng San's face.

Master Cheng San looked a little excited, his eyes turned slightly red: "What you said just now is the truth? If you tell a lie, my mother will definitely not let you go if she knows you."

Yuan'er was trembling all over, her face was covered with snot and tears, and she was stunned. She didn't know what was going on now, so she slowly raised her head and the figure hanging in the air in the room was gone.

"Say it." Master Cheng San took two steps forward.

Yuan'er was slumped on the ground. All the words she said were heard by the third master. It was too late to deny them. Thinking of this, she kept nodding: "Yes... it's true..."

Master Cheng San stared at Yuan'er: "Then why didn't you say it before?"

Yuan'er then said tremblingly: "I... I am afraid of being blamed by my family... If I were shouting at that time, I would not be able to save my wife... But I really don't know what happened... The lady believes in Huixiang the most, and it will be too late to wait until I find out."

Master Cheng San continued, "Are you the one who cried in the green bamboo forest?" As he said that, he raised a piece of cloth in his hand, which was torn off from his clothes.

Yuan'er glanced at him and said, "Yes...is a slave."

Master Cheng San said coldly: "My mother passed away, so it's okay to cry. Why did you turn around and run away when you hear someone's shouting?"

Yuan'er's teeth trembled: "Because I thought about the wife's struggle, I felt guilty in my heart and begged her not to blame her... I ran away in panic when I heard someone screaming.

Master Cheng San heard these words and clenched his fists tightly. There was indeed another story about his mother's death. He quickly stepped forward and pulled Huixiang up: "Let's go with me to confront Huixiang, I want to see who you are telling the truth."

Master Cheng San led Yuan'er to the Yuan Courtyard. Chujiu and Gu Mingzhu immediately followed. Chujiu had just taken off his embroidered shoes and changed back to his long boots.

Things went very smoothly. When he heard Mr. Cheng Er and Mr. Cheng San, he followed him to look at Aunt Gui and Yuan'er. The cloth that Liu Su found in the green bamboo forest was the same as the clothes that Yuan'er wore. He told Mr. Cheng San about these things and the whole story. Mr. Cheng San was more suspicious of Yuan'er.

Then he took care of the eldest lady's intention and came forward to persuade Mr. Cheng San to help him, so that he could find clues earlier. Mr. Cheng San agreed to know the truth.

Miss Gu had a good idea and wanted to pretend to be Mrs. Yuan to scare Huixiang, but the lady didn't know how to be light-hearted, so she needed him to help her to the beam of the house.

He helped the young lady easily, but he couldn't help but touch the young lady...

If this is true, his hands may not be able to be kept. His hands have many uses, and they also need to use them to hold swords, eat, and wipe their butts.

After thinking about it, he would rather put on his skirt and embroidered shoes. Fortunately, there was a big-footed servant in the Cheng family. He put his shoes in, hung them on the beam of the house, and swayed them. The errand was only half over.

I have to say that it was quite relaxing and pleasant, and the embroidered shoes were softer than his usual long boots.

No wonder Miss Gu likes to change her identity and trick people into making people around. She is so happy. I don’t know if she will have the chance to do business with her in the future.

When Chujiu thought of this, he immediately looked at Miss Gu: "Miss, what are we going to do next?"

Liu Su who rushed over couldn't help but frown. Chujiu also squeezed over. Is there nothing to do with Lord Wei?

Gu Mingzhu said, "Let's go and hear what Huixiang said first." The clues found out in the case, and everything was fine.

...

There was a sound of footsteps at the door. Master Cheng looked over and saw the manager dragging someone into the yard. Master Cheng San also walked into the door, and then Wei Yuanchen's people.

Master Cheng suddenly felt badly in his heart.

"The third brother," said Master Cheng, "You are here too."

Before Master Cheng could come back from his surprise, he looked at Master Cheng and bowed blankly, but did not forget to ask someone to take Yuan'er to the wing room.

Master Cheng San said: "Yuaner has any inside information to report to the government office."

"What's the inside story?" Master Cheng immediately asked.

Mr. Cheng also walked forward: "Third brother, what did you ask? Mother..."

Master Cheng San said in a trembling voice: "My mother was killed."

Although Mr. Cheng was prepared for a long time, he still opened his eyes wide. Mr. Cheng looked even more surprised and said for a while: "What did you say? What was killed? Who killed?"

Master Cheng's heart was already in chaos. When he looked at Cheng Yi, he immediately remembered what Cheng Yi said: "How is it different now from me?"

Something happened to the Zhao family, and his father killed the Zhao family. Now his mother was arrested. The yamen suspected that the Cheng family and the Yuan family were connected with foreign enemies. So was the death of his mother... Cheng Sanye was in a split headache and dared not continue thinking about it.

Seeing his three sons like this, Master Cheng could no longer bear it and walked towards the wing room. Yuan'er's voice came from the wing room.

Yuan'er looked at Huixiang on the ground: "It's her. When the wife had an accident, she kept standing in the yard. The room was pitch black at that time. I... didn't know what happened, so I didn't shout, but she stood so close that she must have seen clearly. She... she was watching her wife die."

When Master Cheng heard this, he pushed open the door and his eyes fell on Yuan'er: "What are you talking nonsense?"
