Chapter 128 This is the reason!
Chapter 128 This is the reason!
Shen Qingqian guessed that Shen Mei went to the house where Shen Qinglan had lived before. She must have known that the house was going to be demolished and rebuilt, so she wanted to go in and search for some valuables.
But it was easy to get in, but it was hard to get out! She happened to meet the Zhao Yifeng brothers, who pulled her out. As a result, she fell in love with them and kept chasing them!
It’s really funny!
However, Shen Qingqian immediately thought of another thing!
She had picked up Zhao Yichen’s sword before, on the mountain behind Shenjia Village, and there were many dead men in black there at that time!
Later, Zhao Yifeng was injured, which should have happened on that mountain.
Shen Qingqian remembered that the villagers called the small hill in front Pingding Mountain and the deep mountain behind Yulin Peak. There was nothing special about the names!
But what secrets does Yulin Peak hide? Why do Zhao Yichen and Zhao Yifeng always go there?
Thinking of this, Shen Qingqian couldn't help but ask: "Mr. Zhao, it seems that every time you come to Ping'an Town, you have to go to that mountain. Is there a treasure on that mountain?"
Zhao Yichen knew that although Shen Qingqian was a peasant girl, she had a very clever mind, so it was not surprising that she guessed something.
He thought for a moment and said, "There may be something we lost on that mountain. Let's look for clues."
"Oh..., so that's how it is! It seems that this thing is hard to find. You have been looking for it for so long but still can't find it."
Shen Qingqian did not ask what it was. It was unprecedented that Zhao Yichen could tell her this today. If she asked more, she believed that Zhao Yichen would not tell her, and he might even doubt her again!
Zhao Yichen said: "It is a bit difficult to find. I am afraid we will return empty-handed again this time."
After a moment of silence, Zhao Yichen stood up and said, "I should go now. Miss Shen should also go to bed early!"
"it is good!"
After seeing Zhao Yichen off, Shen Qingqian felt exhausted and fell asleep immediately.
But after Zhao Yichen returned, he tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep.
From time to time, the image of Shen Qingqian's almost naked body appeared in his mind, making him uneasy and irritated.
He stood outside and heard most of the conversation between Shen Qingqian and Yingzi.
Originally, he had the same idea as Yingzi. He had seen almost everything about Shen Qingqian. What if she asked him to take responsibility?
He admitted that Shen Qingqian was a good girl and he didn't hate her, but after all, there were many suspicious points about her. If Shen Qingqian really relied on him, would he bring a woman with a suspicious identity back to Beijing?
But after hearing what Shen Qingqian said to Yingzi, it proved that he was overthinking! Shen Qingqian didn't take this matter to heart at all!
If it was any other woman, she would have married him long ago! If he dared not to take responsibility, she might even kill herself. But Shen Qingqian was Shen Qingqian, she was different from other women after all!
Zhao Yichen breathed a sigh of relief, but also felt a little lost.
He didn't know why he felt this way. Did he really want Shen Qingqian to rely on him? Zhao Yichen himself couldn't figure it out.
The next day, Shen Qingqian, who always got up early, was late in coming out of the room.
Shen Qingfeng had come to see her three times, and he didn't have the heart to disturb her the first two times. But now he was worried that something had happened to her, so he knocked on her door.
"Who is it?"
Shen Qingqian was woken up and asked, but her voice was unusually hoarse.
"Qing Qian, it's me, second brother. Are you feeling unwell?"
Shen Qingqian felt as if her throat had been burned by fire, dry and painful. She did not speak any more, but stood up and went to open the door.
The door opened, Shen Qingfeng walked into the room, looked at her with concern, and asked: "Qingqian, are you sick? Do you want to go to the clinic?"
"No need, second brother, I just caught a cold, just ask Yingzi to get me some medicine.
By the way, did everything go smoothly last night?"
“Well! According to your wishes, throw those two people into the yard of Qiao’s house and we will leave.
However, the Qiao family will not let this go, so we must be on guard.”
"Second brother is right, I will find a way."
"Qingqian, you are sick and need to rest. Don't worry about this matter. Second brother will arrange it. I will ask Yingzi to get you some medicine."
"Okay, let's all be careful."
The brother and sister talked for a while, and then Shen Qingfeng left.
"What? Are you saying that my cousin went to see that woman more than once and bought food for that woman's child?"
When Yao Ning heard the news, he was so shocked that he stood up from his chair.
Opposite her stood a servant, who bent over and said apprehensively, "Yes, Miss, I overheard the conversation between Young Master Gu and Old Master Gu."
Yao Ning tightly grasped the handkerchief in her hand. She just couldn't understand why, as the daughter of a county magistrate, she could not compare to a slut who got pregnant before marriage in Gu Nan's eyes!
Thinking of how Gu Nan defended Shen Qinglan that day, Yao Ning felt a sense of frustration he had never felt before.
She asked again: "I asked you to keep an eye on your cousin these days. Have you found anything else?"
The servant said: "To reply to the young lady, Master Gu has not visited Shen Qinglan and his son in the past few days, but..."
"Just what? Tell me!"
Yao Ning was already feeling upset, and the boy's hesitant speech made her even more annoyed.
"Yes, ma'am."
The servant stole a glance at Yao Ning's face and said, "Every morning, when Young Master Gu left the Gu Mansion and went to Lan Yaju, he would always take a detour and pass by the hot pot restaurant, then lift the curtain to take a look before leaving."
"Fox spirit! Bitch! Shameless!"
Yao Ning was so angry! Gu Nan had been indifferent to her for the past few years, but he was so interested in a lowly peasant girl. How could she feel?
Yao Ning wanted to kill Shen Qinglan at this moment, not because she saw Shen Qinglan as a love rival, but because she felt humiliated to lose to a woman of Shen Qinglan's status. "
After sending the servant away, Yao Ning's personal maid Xiao Tao said, "Miss, Shen Qinglan dared to seduce the young master, would you like me to find someone to give her to..."
"Need not!"
Yao Ning knew what Xiao Tao wanted to say, so she waved her hand to interrupt her and said, "This matter is not suitable for me to do it myself. My cousin is obsessed with that bitch now. If he finds out that I did it, he will be angry with me. Then, I am afraid that my cousin will be even more alienated from me."
"So what does the young lady mean...?"
Yao Ning smiled sinisterly and said quietly, "Let's go find my aunt. I believe my aunt will not tolerate a woman like this getting involved with my cousin!"
"Young lady is right. Madam Gu's most satisfied daughter-in-law has always been young lady. After knowing this, she will definitely not let that bitch go!"
Xiao Tao's flattery made Yao Ning feel a lot better.
