Mrs. Tan looked at the letter in her hand and couldn't help but tremble.
She could tell that it was the second child's handwriting, and the letter mentioned the two peony flowers when they first came to Beijing. Only she and Guangwen knew about this, so the letter should have been written by Guangwen himself.
written by.
At that time, the master was still alive and the family business had improved. The master saved some money and took the three of them, mother and son, to experience the prosperity of the capital.
They bought a small courtyard in the West Market. The courtyard was very small, with only one main house and two side rooms. But being able to buy a house in the middle of Beijing was something they had never thought of before.
After the master bought the yard, he planted peony flowers in the yard with his own hands. By then, the peonies had grown two buds. The master said: "This is a good sign. Mom is also blessing us. Our Tan family will only get better and better in the future."
good."
My mother-in-law likes peonies the most. I miss my mother so much.
Mrs. Tan seemed to be talking to herself or talking to Xu Qinghuan: "Who knew that the peony died before it bloomed? I was afraid that the master would be sad, so I secretly bought some and planted them. When I was planting flowers, Guang Wen watched me
When we arrived, I asked Guangwen not to tell anyone about this matter. Despite his young age, he really remembered it without revealing a word. I didn’t expect that after so many years, he would still remember..."
The memories of a loving mother and a filial son in the past suddenly flooded into Mrs. Tan's heart.
Mrs. Tan's lips trembled: "Guangwen...can he come back?"
Xu Qinghuan looked at Mrs. Tan: "Even if Tan Guangwen comes back, he will enter the Yamen. Then you and Tan Guangyao will have to testify that he is the murderer."
"No, no," Mrs. Tan suddenly said, "Guangwen...he...is not a murderer...he must not be...me..."
Xu Qinghuan stood up: "If the murderer is not Tan Guangwen, will Mrs. Tan feel uneasy? Only you will experience the feeling of killing your own child with your own hands."
Mrs. Tan's heart seemed to be torn to pieces. Seeing Guangyao's miserable situation and knowing that all this was Guangwen's doing, she felt regretful that if she hadn't doted on Guangwen too much, she wouldn't have had such a result... But
What if Guangwen didn't do this? Didn't she kill her son with her own hands?
After all, she didn't see Guangwen kill anyone with her own eyes... It was all... Guangyao told her, but if Guangwen was wronged, then Guangyao... wouldn't...
The palms and backs of the hands are all flesh.
Mrs. Tan didn't know what to do. The worst outcome was that Guangwen couldn't be rescued and fell into Guangyao again.
"Tan Guangwen put all his hopes on the eldest lady, but he didn't expect that the eldest lady didn't want to help him."
Seeing that Xu Qinghuan was about to leave.
Mrs. Tan heard her hoarse voice: "Guangwen left a message saying that if I read this letter, I can know his whereabouts?"
Xu Qinghuan said nothing. In fact, Mrs. Tan already had the answer in her heart.
Sure enough, before Xu Qinghuan could speak, Mrs. Tan said: "Guangwen helped me plant peony flowers that day. I promised to take him to climb high, and we went to Dongshan outside the city together."
So Tan Guangwen hid in Dongshan.
Mrs. Tan said in a trembling voice: "Let's go find Guangwen now."
…
Mrs. Tan changed into less conspicuous clothes and told her mother in charge: "Whoever comes here said that I feel sleepy and am falling asleep."
The mother in charge whispered: "Is this the same answer when I ask?"
Mrs. Tan nodded.
The mother in charge responded and sent Mrs. Tan out of the door.
Mrs. Tan left in a carriage, and Tan Guangyao stood in front of the steward mother with a gloomy expression. Before Tan Guangyao could ask, the steward mother immediately said: "The eldest lady went out with Miss Xu. This slave heard that the eldest lady said she was going to Dongshan.
"
Tan Guangyao nodded: "Well done, don't worry, I won't treat you badly."
The mother in charge bowed her head and retreated.
Tan Guangyao's eyes were full of sternness, and his mother still sided with that bastard in the end, but unfortunately, her mother didn't know that he was already in charge of the Tan family.
Tan Guangyao suddenly smiled. He had to thank his mother for her kindness. Without his mother, he would not have been able to find any trace of that bastard.
Once that bastard dies, he can put all the blame on that bastard
Tan Guangyao called his confidants over and said, "Hurry and prepare a car for me. I want to see the manager immediately."
Tan Guangyao's car stopped at a pen and ink shop. Tan Guangyao eagerly handed a list to the shopkeeper in the shop. The shopkeeper nodded and welcomed Tan Guangyao to the backyard to sit down. After a while, footsteps were heard.
A man in his forties opened the door. It was Zhang Zhong, the steward next to Zhang Yucong.
After the door was closed again, Zhang Zhongcai said coldly: "I'm not telling you, don't come to me unless you have something important."
Tan Guangyao stood there with a bow: "It's just something important," he licked his lips as he spoke, "My second brother is missing, but the eldest lady of the Anyi Marquis Mansion took my mother to look for him."
Zhang Zhong raised his eyes: "How did the Xu family know the whereabouts of your second brother?"
Tan Guangyao said: "Miss Xu took a letter to my mother. The letter was written by my second brother. Miss Xu said that my mother would know where my second brother is hiding after reading the letter."
Zhang Zhong frowned: "Where did that letter come from?"
Tan Guangyao didn't know this. He shook his head and said: "I hurried here before I had time to check. I know they went to Dongshan. You have to arrange for people to follow them, just in case they get the upper hand.
…”
"Shall I arrange for someone to go?" Zhang Zhong looked at Tan Guangyao, "Uncle Tan will not forget everything he said, right? If you want to save your life, you must deal with the Tan family's affairs cleanly, but now
Tan Er hasn't caught it yet, and your original promise has not been fulfilled, so I can't guarantee what will happen in the future."
Tan Guangyao's eyes were suddenly full of fear: "I...I have tried my best, but he just refused to come out. I almost died because of this..."
"I can't control that much," Zhang Zhong said, "I can give you manpower, but you have to handle this matter yourself."
After saying this, Zhang Zhong patted Tan Guangyao on the shoulder: "In life, life and death, wealth and honor all depend on yourself. Whatever you want, you have to work hard. You should understand this better than me. If you
I won’t force myself if I can’t do it…”
Hearing this, Tan Guangyao's heart trembled. If the Zhang family didn't care about him, he would have to wait for death: "I'll go... I'll take people with me."
"Okay," Zhang Zhong showed a satisfied look, "Find Tan Er as early as possible... and clean it up, you can sit back and relax from now on."
Tan Guangyao gritted his teeth, with veins floating on his forehead, and nodded firmly: "He brought it all on himself. It's not my fault. If he hadn't wanted to help the prostitute, he wouldn't have done this again."
Tan Guangyao led people out of the shop.
Zhang Zhong's expression turned gloomy. Something must have gone wrong. Otherwise, why would Miss Xu suddenly come up with a letter? It seems that the Tan family must be sorted out immediately, otherwise trouble will definitely arise.
When the time comes, the master will blame them, and none of them will survive.
Zhang Zhong thought of this and snapped his fingers, and someone immediately stepped forward to take orders.
"Help Tan Guangyao find Tan Guangwen, and then... deal with them all, no matter who stops them... kill gods when they meet, kill Buddha when they meet Buddha." Anyway, it was Tan Guangyao who led his people to do it, and they
The Zhang family has nothing to do with it.
After the man obeyed the order, he disappeared from the house in the blink of an eye like a ghost.
Zhang Zhong picked up the tea on the table and took a sip. He wanted to report the matter to the master immediately.
