A low cry suddenly sounded in the quiet flower hall. The girl who was guarding the door heard the sound and quickly wanted to come in to check the situation, but was stopped by Luo Junyao, "It's okay, there is no need to come in."
The girl was standing at the door hesitating, but soon she heard Su's steady voice from inside: "Step back, Yaoyao and I still have something to talk about, don't let anyone come over."
The girl then responded and stepped back a little further.
Luo Junyao sat next to Su, looked at her still red eyes, and said softly: "I'm sorry, mother. I..."
Su wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, sighed softly and reached out to pat her arm and said, "How can I blame you? I can only be blind. If you hadn't told me, we wouldn't have known that we were being kept in the dark.
How long?"
Su is also a very smart person, and the letter Luo Junyao wrote to her was extremely detailed. How could she not understand it?
As long as she thought about that woman having an appearance that was somewhat similar to her own daughter, and the Xu family's diligent proposal to marry her, Su felt nauseated.
"The Xu family...it's too much to bully others!" Su said through gritted teeth.
Luo Junyao would still doubt whether the Xu family knew the inside story, but Su directly confirmed that the Xu family must know the inside story.
To put it harshly, she, Luo Jinyan and Luo Jinxing were not biological mothers and children. If they lived in the same house for several years, she would not be completely unaware if Luo Jinyan and Luo Jinxing were outside.
The Xu family was clearly united to trick her daughter!
Luo Junyao put the tea cup into Su's hand and said softly: "Mom, don't be angry with yourself. The most important thing right now is what to do?"
Su took a sip of warm tea to calm down and calm down. She had endured countless changes in her life, and she was so angry when she suddenly heard the news, but she quickly calmed down.
"Shao Yao, what do you think?" Su asked softly. After this period of time, Su no longer underestimated Luo Junyao's abilities and methods. Now she is naturally willing to listen to her opinion when encountering such a thing.
Luo Junyao looked at Su and said nothing. Su said, "Just say it."
Luo Junyao said: "If it were me, I wouldn't be afraid of losing face. Naturally, I would cause an uproar and make the whole family uneasy! But if the mother hopes that the eldest sister will not be too affected, she can..."
"how?"
Luo Junyao whispered: "Kill Xu Zhaolin."
Su Shi was startled, and Luo Junyao said calmly: "Get rid of Xu Zhaolin quietly. Mother is very passionate about the eldest sister. We will take the eldest sister back after the filial piety period. In another two years, we will give the eldest sister another child."
Just look for a good match."
Su didn't expect that Luo Junyao would make such a suggestion, and was really a little tempted when she was startled.
If you are already married, even if you make a big fuss now, what good will it do besides causing pain and embarrassment to your daughter? These days, the difference between divorce and widowhood is not that big. There are many families whose daughters have done something that affects the family, and then they tell others that their daughter is dead.
, the same principle applies.
After thinking for a long time, Mrs. Su shook her head and said: "Ming Xiang is already pregnant. Besides...it says that the woman is also pregnant. She may not come to Xu Zhao's house to make trouble when he is about to die. We can't...besides, there is no one in this world."
An airtight wall, if this matter is revealed in the future, even if Mingxiang does not blame my mother in the future, the child will..."
Mingxiang's child is already more than three months old. If there is a murderer in the middle of the birth...
Luo Junyao didn't have to kill Xu Zhaolin. No matter what dynasty or generation she cheated on, cheating and cheating would not lead to death. She wanted to kill Xu Zhaolin out of pure selfishness.
Just use the simplest method to prevent Luo Mingxiang from feeling pain and sadness after knowing about this incident.
Luo Junyao couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Sure enough, anyone would become rude if they were separated from the legal environment.
But mother was right. Even if they could kill Xu Zhaolin, would they still kill the woman and the unborn child? Killing would never solve the problem.
"Then what is mother going to do?" Luo Junyao asked.
Su Shi sighed and said: "Ming Xiang still has to make her own decision on this matter. I, the mother-in-law, can't help her..." At this point, Su Shi couldn't help but blush again. If she hadn't chosen
The wrong person, how could this happen?
Luo Junyao quickly comforted him softly.
"What's wrong with mother?" Luo Jinxing heard that his sister was back, and he happened to come over to take a look when he had time.
I didn't want to walk into the flower hall, but I saw that both of them looked bad. Su's eyes were red, obviously she had just cried.
Luo Junyao looked at Su, who nodded towards her.
Luo Junyao then handed the letter in his hand to Luo Jinxing. Luo Jinxing's face instantly became gloomy when he saw it.
He looks handsome and cheerful, and usually has a cheerful personality. But after all, he was trained on the battlefield, and once his face turns gloomy, it can be quite scary.
Luo Jinxing snorted coldly, slapped the letter on the table, stood up and walked out, "I'm going to kill that bastard!"
Luo Junyao quickly grabbed Luo Jinxing, and Luo Jinxing turned around and said, "Yaoyao, don't make trouble! I'm going to vent my anger on Mingxiang. We, the Luo family, can't be bullied like this!"
Luo Junyao said: "Eldest sister doesn't know about this yet. You hit Xu Zhaolin now. What if you scare eldest sister? She is still pregnant?"
Luo Jinxing paused for a moment and then stopped walking out.
Although he didn't have much contact with Luo Mingxiang, since he called Su and his mother was Luo Mingxiang's sister, he recognized that Su's mother and daughter were both members of the Luo family, so naturally he couldn't tolerate Luo Mingxiang being bullied like this.
"What should we do now? Should I go and bring Mingxiang back first?" Luo Jinxing asked.
Su Shi said: "Please don't go. I'll send someone to bring Ming Xiang back. How to deal with it depends on Ming Xiang's wishes."
Luo Jinxing nodded, thought for a while and said to Su: "Mother, Mingxiang is the eldest girl of our Luo family. No one can wrong her. No matter what she wants to do, my father, brother and I will support her."
Su Shi nodded and said with a smile: "I know, don't worry."
Mrs. Su understood that Luo Jinxing said this because she was worried that she and Mingxiang were not the Luo family's biological flesh and blood, so she swallowed her anger and did not want to cause trouble to the Luo family.
If it were anything else, Mrs. Su might have tolerated it, but when it came to her daughter's life, Mrs. Su would not care about such a small detail at this time.
Su went to arrange for someone to bring Luo Mingxiang back, and Luo Junyao also wanted to follow.
Su stopped her, but she said that by suddenly taking someone home in such a grand manner, there was no guarantee that she would not attract the attention of the Xu family.
Mrs. Su only gave orders to her subordinates, saying that Madam wanted the eldest daughter to come up with some things about Mr. Luo's wedding, and there was no need to mention anything else.
Luo Jun dragged Luo Jinxing out of Su's courtyard. Both of them were in a very bad mood.
Although Luo Jinxing recognized Su's caution, he was still holding his breath.
He really didn't expect that Chun'an Bo's Mansion would dare to scheme against the Luo family. Could it be that Chun'an Bo's Mansion was relying on the fact that Luo Mingxiang was not the Luo family's biological daughter and thought that the Luo family would ignore it?
"Second brother." Luo Junyao bumped Luo Jinxing with his elbow. Luo Jinxing looked down at her, "What's wrong?"
Luo Junyao asked: "Do you want to avenge eldest sister?"
"Didn't mother tell us not to act rashly?" Luo Jinxing said.
Luo Junyao said: "Mother said we shouldn't act rashly, but she didn't say others couldn't do it. There are so many people in Shangyong, who knows if there will be someone named Xu who doesn't like it?"
"This..." Luo Jinxing narrowed his eyes slightly, obviously very excited, "What are your plans?"
Luo Junyao hooked his finger at him, and Luo Jinxing immediately came forward, and the two of them squatted under the rockery and started planning in whispers.
Not far away, Luo Jinyan was passing by with someone and saw the two of them paused. He frowned and asked, "Are those Yaoyao and Jinxing?"
Luo Er glanced over, nodded and said with a smile: "It's the second young lady and the second young master."
"What are these two hiding there?" Luo Jinyan was a little helpless. One of them was in his early twenties, and the other was already married, and they still acted like children.
Luo Er smiled and said, "The second lady and the second young master are probably discussing something, right? I'll go over and ask?"
Luo Jinyan thought for a while, shook his head and said, "Forget it, they are not willful and mischievous people, so leave them alone." After saying that, he took Luo Er away. He was very busy now and had no time to discipline his younger siblings.
Seeing Luo Jinyan leaving, Luo Jinxing and Luo Junyao breathed a sigh of relief.
The two of them quickly stood up and scurried behind the rockery.
Xu Zhaolin was sitting in the carriage. His usually warm face now looked a little solemn, and there was a hint of worry in his brows.
The carriage passed through the not-so-wide street and turned into a narrow alley.
Suddenly the carriage vibrated violently. Before Xu Zhaolin could ask anything, he bumped into the carriage wall and threw himself outside the carriage and fainted.
Xu Zhaolin pretended to go out and did not dare to take more people with him. There was only a coachman and an inconspicuous old carriage. At this time, the seat where the coachman was sitting was empty. Xu Zhaolin jumped out and almost fell down. Fortunately, he was lucky, but again
He bumped into where the coachman was sitting, groaned and completely passed out on the carriage.
After a while, the two people jumped from the wall and landed next to the carriage.
"Fainted." Luo Junyao stretched out his hand to check, then raised his head and said to Luo Jinxing, who was standing next to him through the curtain.
Luo Jinxing nodded, narrowed his eyes slightly and stared at the comatose Xu Zhaolin, saying: "I originally thought he was a humble gentleman, but I didn't expect... scholars are hypocritical!"
Luo Junyao said: "Stop dawdling, it won't be good if someone sees you soon."
"What do you want to do?" Luo Jinxing asked.
Luo Jun shook his head and said, "First, take out all the money and belongings from him."
Luo Jinxing understood immediately, "Robbery?"
Luo Junyao smiled and said: "Don't worry, he doesn't dare to report it to the official, and he doesn't dare to tell others." If he reported it to the official, he would have to explain clearly why the dignified Prince Chun'an appeared in a place like this in such a carriage. There is really no such thing these days.
What kind of surveillance equipment, but Xu Zhaolin has been in and out of these places for a long time, so it is impossible that no one around him has seen it.
Luo Jinxing immediately rolled up his sleeves and began to collect Xu Zhaolin's belongings. As the eldest son of Chun'an House, Xu Zhaolin was naturally not short of money. I don't know if he was going to give money to Deng Yuniang today, but he even had two five hundred taels with him.
Banknotes are not something that most people carry with them.
Luo Junyao looked at the banknote and said, "His belongings are all counted. If he suddenly loses such a large sum of money, it is impossible for me not to know where the banknote came from?" Xu Zhaolin is the prince of Chun'an after all.
Instead of Chun Anbo, the Xu family is not under his control now, but there is plenty of money available.
Luo Jinxing said: "The bank will put numbers on the banknotes. You will know when you go back and check." As he spoke, Luo Jinxing took away Xu Zhaolin's jade pendants, hairpins and other decorations, as well as the wallet containing broken silver.
"How should he deal with it?" Luo Jinxing asked.
Luo Junyao raised his eyebrows and said, "He, isn't he about to take the imperial examination recently? He still has time to have a tryst at this time, which shows that the imperial examination is not that important to him."
Luo Jinxing smiled and said: "I understand, you give way."
Luo Jun shrugged and moved aside. Luo Jinxing reached out and pulled Xu Zhaolin's right arm. There was a click. Xu Zhaolin, who was originally unconscious, was awakened by the huge pain and couldn't help but scream.
Luo Jinxing had quick eyesight and quick hands. He raised his hand to hold his chin and gave it a slight squeeze. His other hand was on the back of his neck. Xu Zhaolin, who had just opened his eyes, fainted again.
Luo Jinxing looked back at Luo Junyao, who gave him a thumbs up.
Crisp, neat, well done!
Luo Jinxing smiled with satisfaction and threw Xu Zhaolin back into the carriage with some disgust. The two of them jumped onto the wall next to them and disappeared into a remote alley.
In the narrow alley, a carriage parked quietly, almost blocking the entire alley.
But no one came or went in the alley for a long time, only the horse stood there and kicked the ground a little uneasily.
