Jiang Wu was stunned for a moment, until the other party straightened up again with a half-smile.
She was a little embarrassed and took two steps back: "Sir, please slow down, why don't you let me ask."
Fu Heng thought about it for a moment, his eyes turned around her, and then he glanced at Aunt Liu, who was already rolling her eyes, and sheathed her sword with a wave of her long arm.
In addition, Jiang Wu also ordered others to withdraw, leaving only her and Aunt Liu.
After everyone was dismissed, Jiang Wu sat on a stool. Aunt Liu didn't understand what she had done. She couldn't stop kowtowing and begging Jiang Wu to save her life, shouting like a living Buddha.
Jiang Wu only asked her one sentence: "Are you really not resentful in your heart?"
Jiang Wu had guessed before that Aunt Liu was actually born in a family that favored sons over daughters, because from the beginning, the vegetable buyer had said that Li Jiaojiao had a marriage, but she later ruined it.
Why is it causing trouble? Because Aunt Liu hopes that Li Jiaojiao can marry her younger brother Liu Zhao.
This is actually ridiculous. Although Aunt Liu is now a wealthy businessman's concubine, Li Jiaojiao comes from a serious wealthy businessman. She usually makes friends with powerful people from all walks of life. But who is Liu Zhao? No matter how good-looking he is, he can't hide it.
Not to mention the fact that he accomplished nothing.
This is something that anyone with a little bit of brain can figure out.
Aunt Liu had never thought about it before blowing the pillow wind. What if Li Zhuo refused to listen to her and instead disliked her?
All this can only be explained by the fact that she really cared deeply about this brother.
Although Aunt Liu really didn't know where Liu Zhao was, Jiang Wu made some insinuations and asked about her entire family.
First of all, Aunt Liu’s parents were extremely patriarchal.
Ancient times were a patriarchal society, but it was rare for people to be so partial. Aunt Liu was the fifth daughter, and there were seven children in their family. The seventh was Liu Zhao, and those before Liu Zhao were all sisters.
Aunt Liu had a natural look on her face when she talked about this, and she obviously didn't think there was anything wrong. In addition to the first time, she also told her origins - the family first lived in Yangzhou, and the six girls ranged in age.
Big, she has never met her eldest sister. It is said that she died after being sold by her parents.
And the Liu family is actually very poor, so why do they still have money to have children until they give birth to a child?
Because all the daughters were sold, and all the money was used to raise their sons, including Aunt Liu, whose real name was Liu Qian. She was sold by her parents when she was a teenager. She was originally sold to be a slave.
Most of her sisters had the same fate as her. They were tossed around in the hands of Ren Yazi at a young age and worked as servants in different houses.
Liu Qian was the "lucky" one among them. Because of her good looks, she was picked by the brothel's boss, and she soon became a very popular girl in the brothel. Then, at this time, her parents came to visit her again.
Her elderly parents knelt down in front of her and cried, saying that it was not easy for them and that raising a boy was too expensive. They were old and often had headaches and fever.
Before these girls were actually sold, their parents had often instilled the idea of being nice to their younger brothers. Liu Qian felt that she had made some money, so naturally when it was time to repay her parents, she gave all her savings to her parents.
Aunt Liu cried and said that she had no regrets. Her parents' kindness and kindness were beyond heaven, but they were just helping her younger brother, so how could she regret it?
But Jiang Wu hit the nail on the head and said: "Today, you have already understood. As for the injury on your shoulder, your mother is not crazy, right? She is just forcing you to give your brother a good future. She can't force you verbally.
Then force him physically."
Her eyes were slightly cold, and her tone did not contain any warmth: "You really can't blame anyone."
What kind of good character can a person raised like this have? Liu Zhao appears to be gentle and respectful on the surface, but is actually very domineering. Although the Liu family is a waste, the daughter they raised is very lucky. Apart from Aunt Liu, she still has a good life.
Not bad.
But later, this sister also died.
"At that time, I had already arrived in the capital with my master. A few years later, my parents wrote me a letter saying that my brother had committed a crime and asked me to send him some money. I later found out that Liu Zhao was in Yangzhou with a man.
The rich man's son got into a dispute, injured his opponent during the fight, and was thrown into prison."
Jiang Wu's eyebrows twitched, as if he had guessed what was going to happen next.
"Our family is a small family, how can we compare with others? I spent money to no avail, and I don't know what happened next. I only know that my parents took my younger brother and moved directly to the capital."
At first, Aunt Liu thought the money had played a role, but later she heard from her parents that one of her sisters, Liu Zhao's sister, had been sacrificed.
The sister was also sold into a brothel. She had already found a good family, and the other party had promised to redeem her life. Things were about to get better, but her parents knelt down for two days begging her to save her brother. She had no choice.
Still he softly agreed.
She once had a benefactor who liked her very much. He was very powerful in Yangzhou, but he was very rough. He often killed and maimed his concubines and carried them out of the house.
She was originally only willing to spend some money to smooth things over, and was not willing to serve this benefactor. However, somehow her parents found out about this matter, and directly asked the benefactor to know about their family affairs through connections. The benefactor said that he could help her save her life.
My brother is leaving the house, but you have to be my concubine.
After she gritted her teeth and agreed, Liu Zhao was quickly rescued, but she herself died immediately.
Jiang Wu frowned tightly, "So later your brother came to the capital, and you used Li Zhuo's money to help the Liu family and bought a house in the capital. Later, your parents asked you to help Liu Zhao find a house in the capital.
It’s a good family, isn’t it?”
I wonder how these greedy parents could have no idea when they saw that their daughter was living so well and became the concubine of a wealthy family, while their son could only live with them in a dilapidated small house.
?
According to Aunt Liu's methods and vision, she can't actually come into contact with anyone higher.
So no matter what she did, she could only praise Liu Zhao in front of Li Zhuo.
But Liu Zhao himself is also a capable person. Not only does she use Aunt Liu, but after he gets to know Li Xi and Li Jiaojiao, he can naturally use them to get to know girls from higher classes, such as the daughters of high-ranking officials.
Liu Zhao was much smarter than his parents, especially after being imprisoned. He knew very well that Aunt Liu was the only sister who was still alive and could help him. He held Aunt Liu in his arms and pretended
His pure and kind demeanor slowly made both Li Jiaojiao and Li Xi have a good impression of him.
"After I noticed Xi'er's thoughts, I was very panicked. Although my cousins are a perfect match, I love my daughter more in my heart. If Xi'er really married him, wouldn't my daughter be like me?
, being worked hard by the Liu family for the rest of your life?"
"Later, my parents also found out about this. They were overjoyed and said they wanted to kiss each other, but they didn't want Xi'er, only Jiaojiao."
She couldn't even shed tears from her eyes: "Because Aunt Rong's natal family is better than mine, and she was once the daughter of a wealthy family. My parents thought that if my brother could marry Jiaojiao, it might be helpful in the past...
It’s just about sending money on time every month.”
“Where is that additional property?”
If it is correct, then it is very likely that this house is where the murderer hid Zeng Ting.
Aunt Liu mentioned a location, and Jiang Wu was stunned for a moment. This place turned out to be...
