Because of Lan Qingyu's answer, Lin Haoming did not ask again immediately, but looked back at Yao Dong who was standing behind him.
Yao Dong also understood what Lin Haoming meant, so he asked with a smile: "Miss Zeng, if I follow what you said, wouldn't you be a water bandit from the Jinfeng Gang? But the girl claimed to be a member of the Zeng family before. Is there something wrong with this?"
What’s the problem?”
Lan Qingyu seemed to have been waiting for the other party to ask about this matter. Although her voice was soft due to her injuries, her tone was very sure: "This matter is a long story. Although I am a member of the Zeng family, I was killed because of my father's death many years ago.
When my family treated me unfairly and I died in vain, my mother took me away from our family. Over the years, I have been living in seclusion in Fangyuan City, Jinhu County, doing some small business. It is also our fault that we did not investigate this matter clearly. This time we transported a
We wanted to send a batch of goods to the Thief City. Because the goods were quite important, I, the young master, personally escorted them. Who would have thought that the boatmen and men hired were all water bandits from the Jinfeng Gang. The Jinfeng Gang must have found out about our relationship with the Zeng family. This
He just deliberately took advantage of us!"
"But if the girl had such a reason, why didn't she tell the gatekeeper directly and instead ran away? This reason is unconvincing!" Yao Dong asked the key point again.
Lan Qingyu smiled bitterly and said: "This matter is still because of my problem, because if I am caught, I am afraid I will need to ask for help from my family to escape. However, in recent years, our family has sent people several times to ask for help.
In fact, the marriage was obviously a deal. Who allowed me to have the blood of the Zeng family? If my mother hadn't shied away, and there were indeed many conflicts with the family, and we wouldn't have relied on our family to live, I would have never known that I was being married.
I used it as a tool to marry to that useful person. If I am caught this time, once I get out, it will be difficult to refuse my request. I thought that with my skills, I can escape, but I didn’t expect that the other party has a proficient
A man of archery.”
Lan Qingyu said so much in one breath, and it was a bit difficult. After she finished speaking, she didn't care whether the other party believed it or not, so she closed her eyes and took a rest.
Since Lin Haoming looked at each other, he obviously didn't expect such an answer. Although it seemed a little surprising, it did make some sense.
"Girl, what can you say to prove what you said?" Lin Haoming asked.
"I have a jade pendant on my body that can only be owned by the head of the Zeng family. Besides, my affairs are not a secret in the Zeng family. You will find out if you inquire, sir." Lan Qingyu spoke softer this time,
Obviously, it is a bit difficult to say so much when the injury is so severe.
"If what the girl said is true, we would naturally not treat her as a water bandit. However, we will prove what the girl said. Before that, please stay with us. Fortunately, the girl is also
You need medical treatment, and my wife is also a master of this!" Lin Haoming saw that the other party seemed to be almost unable to hold on anymore, so he didn't ask any more questions and just explained.
Lan Qingyu also nodded slightly, then pointed to her storage bag and said: "My jade pendant is inside, you can rummage around!"
Lin Haoming smiled slightly and said: "Then let's take a look. Don't worry, girl, we won't flip through other things casually!"
Lin Haoming said this, but he walked to the storage bag without any courtesy, picked up her storage bag and started looking for it.
With Lin Haoming's cultivation level, she quickly figured out what was in the storage bag. However, there was nothing to prove that she was a water bandit. However, she quickly took out the jade pendant that she mentioned. This jade pendant was about three inches in size.
, there is a Taotie pattern on the front, and a big "Zeng" character written on the back.
Although Lin Haoming didn't know what the jade pendant belonging to the Zeng family looked like, but seeing that it was clearly hand-carved, he thought it couldn't be fake.
"Girl, rest in peace. When we get to Dithief City, we will take good care of the girl. You don't need to worry about anything!" After putting the jade pendant back, Lin Haoming gave a final word of comfort, and then went out with Yao Dong, leaving Shu Siyue behind.
Continue to take care of it.
"What do you think of what Mr. Yao said to this woman?" Lin Haoming asked thoughtfully after leaving the door.
Yao Dong was silent for a while, and then replied: "Looking at what the girl said, there are no flaws. I think it is probably true. Of course, what she said must be investigated by the Zeng family. It's just that
If that’s the case, it would be a bit of a coincidence.”
"Sir, do you think coincidences should be fake?" Lin Haoming asked with a smile.
"Even if you don't think it's fake, you should at least be suspicious. After all, this woman really appeared at the wrong time." Yao Dong said calmly.
"Hey! If you and I weren't playing chess that day, we might have discovered her early in the morning. She is in a high position and has become lazy in some things!" Lin Haoming shook his head.
"Sir, it would be unreasonable if you have to do every little thing personally!" Yao Dong did not agree with Lin Haoming's idea.
Lin Haoming also nodded and said, "Mr. Yao, how do you think this woman should be dealt with?"
"If after investigation, it is confirmed that there is nothing wrong, we can let her go. Although handing her over to the Zeng family may be able to establish a relationship with the Zeng family, it is not easy to do something that harms her life; but if we find something fishy, then we can
You have to adapt to changes!" Yao Dong replied.
"Mr. Yao's idea is the same as mine! Let's go and play another two games!" Lin Haoming said with a smile.
"Okay!" Yao Dong laughed and went upstairs with Lin Haoming.
"Your sister Qingyu is actually a member of the Zeng family. Sister Fengling, why didn't you tell me?" Not long after Lin Haoming heard this, Han Ningxiang also found out, and she immediately questioned him at night.
Come up, Silver Phoenix Spirit.
Yin Fengling now respected and feared Han Ningxiang, and could only reply respectfully to his question: "I don't know much. I only know that after Sister Qingyu left the Zeng family, she was killed by someone from the Zeng family on the way.
It was my mother who saved them from the ambush. Sister Qingyu’s mother was also seriously injured at first. She took careful care of her. Sister Qingyu joined the Jinfeng Gang. At that time, the Qingyu class was only in their twenties. I was just
I am only ten years old, and because my mother is very beautiful, my sister Qingyu has always been with me!"
"No wonder you said you were raised by Sister Qingyu. It seems that you two have a really good relationship!" Han Ningxiang said with a smile as if she had caught something good.
"That's natural!" Yin Fengling said proudly subconsciously, but soon realized something, immediately put away her pride, stared at Han Ningxiang warily and said, "You don't know what to do, do you?"
"What to do? What will I do? As long as you are obedient, everyone will be happy!" Han Ningxiang said and laughed, and her smile was really innocent and cute.
When Yin Fengling saw such a "cute" smile, her heart tightened, and the words "little witch" sounded in her heart again.
