The fat aunt who was so arrogant just now immediately stopped and smiled dryly at Xiao Huai with her neck curled up: "Mr. Xiao, are you done with your class? It's hard work. You come to teach the students despite your busy schedule. You are really enthusiastic about public services."
Xiao Huai held his briefcase with his hands down with a cold face. He was not affected by the aunt's compliment at all. The people around him immediately recognized the situation and dispersed.
"Be careful of the impact when you speak outside," Xiao Huai told his aunt seriously, "I heard everything you just said, and I hope you won't spread what you heard from hearsay as the truth."
The aunt shook her legs and said "oh" reluctantly.
Xiao Huai said no more, and did not exchange a single glance with Zhang Moyan. He turned around, leaving the two of them with distant figures.
Zhang Moyan was grateful to Xiao Huai, but did not come forward to thank Xiao Huai. After learning that she was Chen Yun's daughter, Xiao Huai probably found it difficult to accept her entry into the Xiao family because of Xiao Guoxi's relationship. Perhaps
As this distant aunt said, it was because of the pressure of the elders that I dared not speak out in anger.
"Don't think that someone is supporting you, which means you are innocent." The aunt still looked at Zhang Moyan unwillingly. This contempt came from the bottom of her heart, "I didn't just hear it, Zhang Shunqing wrote it clearly in the letter to Grandpa Guotao back then.
Yes, it’s all your mother’s fault.”
Zhang Moyan was stunned when she heard the name of her biological father, Zhang Shunqing. Xiao Huai, who had just walked not far, suddenly stopped, froze for two seconds, and walked back quickly.
"Say what you just said again." Xiao Huai looked a little serious.
The aunt thought that her provocation to Zhang Moyan had made Xiao Huai angry, so she expressed her surrender: "Oh, why don't I stop talking! Really, I don't even have the freedom to speak these days."
Zhang Moyan also felt that we were a family after all, so there was no need to make things too ugly, so she smoothed things over: "Xiao Huai, forget it."
However, Xiao Huai did not want to let the aunt go, and reiterated with a stern expression: "I asked you to say what you just said again, did you hear it?"
Xiao Huai is the real person in charge of the Xiao Sheng Group. His face turned so pale that most people would really be unable to resist it. The aunt immediately became a little overwhelmed and panicked. She kept blinking her eyes and couldn't speak.
Xiao Huai lost his patience: "You just said that Zhang Shunqing's letter was clearly written back then. Did Zhang Shunqing write a letter to Grandpa Guotao?"
The aunt's plump face suddenly showed a thunderous state, her mouth was open and her mouth was stuck. When a discerning person saw her, she had just realized that she had gotten into trouble.
Zhang Moyan was surprised: Don't Xiao Huai and the others know that Zhang Shunqing once wrote a suicide note to Xiao Guotao?
The aunt wished she could escape, but Xiao Huai pressed hard against her. He glanced at Zhang Moyan, broke the casserole and asked: "You said it was all her mother's fault. Is that what Zhang Shunqing's letter said? You
Have you read that letter?”
The aunt immediately shook her hands like a rattle and was so frightened that she denied it: "I didn't say, I didn't say, I didn't say anything! I don't know anything, don't ask me... I still have to go to work, I still have things to do."
I'm leaving!"
The aunt stepped back as she spoke, and Xiao Huai's eyes seemed to light up as he stared at her.
"You won't tell me?" Xiao Huai's voice was cold, "Then I'll wait here for you to get off work. After get off work, you can go with me to see Grandpa Guotao."
The aunt's legs were so weak that she almost staggered: "Grandpa Guotao? No, I don't want... Mr. Xiao, please let me go, I beg you, what I just talked about is really nonsense."
It's useless to talk nonsense at this time. Her reaction has clearly demonstrated that she knows about Zhang Shunqing's suicide note, and it is impossible for Xiao Huai to let her go.
Even Zhang Moyan couldn't ignore this situation at this moment. If Xiao Huai had never read Zhang Shunqing's suicide note, why did a distant relative of the Xiao family seem to know what was written in the suicide note?
No matter how much the aunt explained, Xiao Huai still sat down in the waiting area with a stern look on his face and a firm attitude, showing that his determination was as unshakable as Mount Everest.
The aunt was regretful and anxious, and almost collapsed when she saw Xiao Huai, who was begging for truth to the death. She scratched her heart for a long time, knowing that she could not escape, and finally decided to give up the struggle and walked to Xiao Huai to surrender: "Mr. Xiao, I haven't seen it.
Zhang Shunqing's letter, I...I heard what my father-in-law said, but my father-in-law told us to keep this matter a secret. I really shouldn't talk too much today!" She slapped her mouth.
Xiao Huai stood up: "Uncle Weiji?"
The aunt nodded in dismay.
Half an hour later.
The aunt's father-in-law, Xiao Weiji, was standing in the main room of the Xiao family's ancestral home.
When Xiao Xingyu rushed to the main room after being notified by Sun Li, the room was already full of parents - Xiao Guotao, Xiao Huai's grandmother (Xiao Guoxi's wife) Yan Mei, Xiao Weizhou, Xiao Weijiang, Xiao Weichang, aunt, and second aunt were all present.
, Zhang Moyan stood on the edge, and Xiao Weiji, who had become the target of public criticism, was in the center of the siege. The scene was more chilling than the three-chamber trial.
Without saying a word, Xiao Xingyu walked up to Zhang Moyan and hid her behind him. His extraordinarily tall figure protected her almost tightly. Sun Li had already told him the general story on the way here.
The daughter-in-law will be wronged.
Xiao Guotao sat at the top, looked at Xiao Xingyu and Zhang Moyan, turned to talk to Xiao Weiji who was standing in the center: "Weiji, if I remember correctly, you were the team leader of Shunqing's workshop in the early years, right?"
?"
Xiao Weiji was a thin, honest-looking uncle. He was hunched over with his head lowered, holding hands with both hands, and made no sound.
Xiao Weicheng slammed the table: "Xiao Weiji, please speak! Don't think that nothing will happen if you don't speak. We can't do anything to you! Do you and your son still want to have sex in Xiao Sheng? I'll take care of your son and his wife later."
Find it!"
Xiao Weicheng's violent temper almost brought down the roof, but Xiao Weiji was still as stubborn as a stone, keeping his mouth shut like an old clam, as if he didn't care about life or death.
Yan Mei on the side looked anxious, wiped her eyes with a shaking handkerchief, and turned her gaze to Xiao Guotao: "Brother, tell me the truth today, did Zhang Shunqing really write you a letter?"
This question surprised Zhang Moyan. Zhang Shunqing's suicide note was an undoubted fact. Could it be that no one else in the Xiao family knew about the letter Xiao Guotao read to her?
For a moment, everyone's eyes were focused on Xiao Guotao. The old man's face was as calm as ever. He thought for a long time before nodding: "Indeed."
Zhang Moyan heard a burst of gasps from all around. Mrs. Yan immediately fell into a trance and cried out to Xiao Guotao: "What letter? When did it happen? What did he say in the letter?! Brother, why didn't you tell me?
, it’s so hard for you to hide it from me!”
Everyone in the hall was silent except for Yan Mei's voice venting her tears.
Xiao Guotao held his breath for a long time, then slowly took out a letter from his pocket and handed it to Yan Mei: "The letter is right here." He took a breath and pursed his lips forcefully, "This is Zhang Shunqing's final work."
Yan Mei took the letter and paused.
Xiao Guotao raised his head to hold back his sorrow: "I didn't hide it deliberately, I just felt that everyone would be better off if they didn't know its existence."
