"Let it out? Wouldn't it be bitten by a poisonous snake?"

"No, this snake is just like a human being. When it suddenly arrives at an unfamiliar place, it dares to attack and hurt people. Why can't it look around? Besides, it is very rare for snakes to take the initiative to bite people. How did Madam react that day?

What happened? I don’t know. I think someone did something in advance to attract the venomous snake to bite Madam."

When I said this, I couldn't help but feel something in my heart, secretly thinking that this was a good opportunity to frame someone up, because I thought deeply: Mrs. Xu had some spices put on her body..."

Before he could finish speaking, he heard Xin Nian beside him say: "So that's it. Such a scary thing, I think when Mother Zhang brought it over, she was frightened, right?"

Aunt Gu was still stuck in her own thoughts, thinking about how to divert trouble to the east. After hearing this, she subconsciously replied: "Isn't that true? That old guy was so frightened that her face turned pale. She kept chanting Buddha's name, and I comforted her..."

Before she could finish speaking, she suddenly felt that something was wrong. She was stunned for a moment, and then there was a "click" in her mind, as if she had been hit by a thunderbolt, which made her completely motionless.

After a long while, Aunt Gu dared to look at Xin Nian. She was sitting there, looking at her quietly, with a sneer at the corner of her mouth, and said softly: "What was sister thinking just now? Such confession, telling the truth

I’ve been told everything.”

"I...I didn't say anything, I didn't say anything..."

Aunt Gu's face turned pale, and she tried to deny it incoherently. She looked at the room again, and saw that she and Xin Nian were alone. She thought: It's empty talk. As long as I bite you to death and deny it, it's useless no matter what she says, and grandma

Most likely they will help me too.

Thinking like this, I became more courageous, and just when I was about to say a few more harsh words, I saw Xin Nian said coldly: "You have already let it slip, why are you still stubbornly resisting? You think there is no one else here, and your words are empty, you don't admit it

That’s it? I don’t even think about it. Since I know it’s Mrs. Zhang who brought the poisonous snake, will I let her go? I’ll drag her to beat her dozens of times, and I’m afraid she won’t do it? Besides, why do you think I used Mrs. Zhang to defraud you? You say

That iron box is hidden in her house. Didn't I find this during the search and make me suspicious? How could I have deceived you so accurately? When the witness and physical evidence are complete, I don't see how you can still deny it.

."

Aunt Gu fell into the abyss and murmured: "That iron box...I asked her to throw it away a long time ago, why...she still keeps it? This old guy...his nature of being stingy and loving money has not changed. I didn't

She shouldn't be used."

"Who else can you use if you don't want her? Besides Granny Zhang, who else can you trust wholeheartedly and have free access to the back door in this mansion?"

"You...you already knew this?"

Aunt Gu's face turned pale, but she saw Xin Nian shaking her head: "I'm not a god, how could I have known about it for a long time? It's just that when what happened that day, I noticed that your expression was different. Furthermore, you are from Lingnan, so there are many people there.

Poisonous snakes, so I'm a little suspicious. Think about it carefully, if you did it and you can't leave the house in the near future, who will you find to help you transport the poisonous snakes? I asked several women, and they all said yours

The girl usually has a lot of contact with Mrs. Zhang, so I asked people to pay special attention during the search. I heard that there was a strange iron box, and I knew it, so I called you over. Sure enough, tighten it first and then loosen it, and wait for you to confirm it.

I didn't suspect you, and after I lowered my guard, I didn't bring it upon myself."

Aunt Gu pursed her lips, but in the end she was speechless.

She sat there blankly, and she didn't know how long it had passed. She suddenly smiled miserably, stood up, straightened her clothes, and said softly: "Well, my sister is really smart as ice and snow. As you said, up to this point, I am still stubbornly resisting.

, what's the use? I admitted that I did all the things. Sister, go tell me and my wife. This matter can be closed. Whether you kill or behead, I will accept it."

Xin Nian remained motionless. She stared at Aunt Gu and said softly: "Although every word I said from the moment you walked in was meant to deceive you, there is one sentence in which I am serious."

Aunt Gu was like a wood carving made of clay. She didn't ask her any questions, and she didn't respond at all. Xin Nian continued talking by himself: "It's hard to escape the death penalty for murdering Madam, but it won't do you any good. Sister, why are you so confused? Crime

Make such a huge mistake."

Aunt Gu finally reacted. She looked at Xin Nian, suddenly punched her chest with a fist, and said excitedly: "Am I confused? Yes, I am confused, but no matter how confused I am, do I not even know what is good or bad? I don't know.

Is it a capital crime to murder the mistress? I don’t know that even if the lady dies, I, this concubine, can’t possibly correct her? What don’t I know? But...but..."

"But what?"

Xin Nian asked closely, but saw Gu Auntie shook her head with a wry smile and waved her hand: "Sister, why do you ask? How can you, a smart person like you, not see who will be most proud after my wife dies? You said, if there is no heaven,

With great benefits, who would take such a huge risk?”

"you mean……"

Xin Nian took a deep breath, and it matched her guess. But she saw Aunt Gu dusting off her clothes, and said in a deep voice: "No need to ask anymore, I think I hope the matter will be settled completely with me, otherwise what will he do?

What to do? I don’t want him to be in trouble, I just hope that after I die, he can always think of Chen’er and take more care of this motherless child.”

While talking, I thought of my heartache and couldn't help but burst into tears.

Seeing her crying miserably, Xin Nian also had mixed feelings, and said in a deep voice: "If I had known today, why did I do it in the first place? I don't believe it. It was grandma who forced you to do this with a knife? What leverage did you have against her?

In your hand?"

Aunt Gu cried: "If you just force me with a knife, I would rather die than do it. But who can not bow his head under the eaves? How can I have the character of a sister? What's more, I am as proud as you are now.

Have you bowed your head? Are you doing it for yourself? Not for the sixth young master and the fourth girl? They say that being a mother is strong, but they don’t know that being a mother is also weak, and children are the Achilles heel of being a mother. I just think about our future

Life is just a little easier."

"Then you are going to harm my wife? Aren't you afraid of the retribution of the natural cycle? Have you ever thought about it? If my wife really dies from the mouth of a poisonous snake, will your conscience be at peace? Even if you are well-dressed and well-fed in the future, you will be able to eat well.

Did you sleep well?"

"What does it matter if I don't eat well or sleep soundly? As long as Chen'er can eat well, sleep soundly, and have a good future, that's enough. As for Madam's innocence, indeed, this is all my sin. I will wait for the future
