Chapter 436 Mutual Suspicion
As soon as he finished speaking, a man tied up was pushed in. The man fell to the ground and kept crawling towards Mrs. Liang, saying, "Mother, help me, I know I'm wrong, I know I'm wrong."
This person was Mr. Liang San, and the one who pushed him in was Mr. Liang, who looked dusty.
With Mr. Liang's return, the situation immediately took a sharp turn for the worse.
Mr. Liang had a bruised nose and swollen face. He was obviously beaten up in advance. Mrs. Liang felt heartbroken. Due to everyone and Mr. Liang's face, he did not dare to snatch up on his son. He only looked at Mr. Liang with his begging eyes.
Mr. Liang is a tough person and is just right. No one in the mansion can persuade him except Mrs. Liang.
Mrs. Liang complained secretly. If she had known that Mrs. Liang would have come too, and with Mrs. Liang was here, Mrs. Liang would not dare to take too much action against his son. But now Mrs. Liang is not here. With Mrs. Liang's arbitrary nature, he was like this from the beginning, but I was afraid that his son would suffer a lot.
When the Dong family saw Mr. Liang, they naturally gritted their teeth with hatred. However, seeing that he had been taught to this extent by Mr. Liang, it was difficult to get up to make up for his identity.
Even Mrs. Meng, who had been questioning, stopped talking at this time. She could only wait for Mr. Liang to speak first and see Mr. Liang's intentions before talking.
After Mr. Liang entered the door, he swept everyone's faces, and then helped Master Liang San who was crawling towards Mrs. Liang, untied the rope tied to Master Liang San.
Everyone in the Dong family thought he was trying to force Mr. Liang to kneel down and apologize to the Dong family.
Mrs. Meng was planning what to say later. A life cannot be easily understood by kowtowing a few times. Mr. Liang looked very beaten, but it was just a skin trauma. If Mr. Liang was counting on a bitter trick, he would be very wrong.
Unexpectedly, Mr. Liang did not say the second sentence. He just waited for Mr. Liang to stand firmly. His subordinates exerted force, and there was a crisp sound. Then Mr. Liang screamed in pain.
It turned out that Mr. Liang had actually broken Mr. Liang's right hand.
"My son..." Mrs. Liang could no longer hold back and rushed towards Mr. Liang on the ground crying. However, Mr. Liang was pulled by him.
Mr. Liang said to Zhuang, who was so scared behind Mrs. Liang, "Your mother-in-law is not feeling well, so why don't you help her to rest in the house."
Zhuang, who was already afraid that this stern father-in-law, wouldn't dare to say anything after seeing the tragic situation of Mr. Liang, so he hurriedly helped Mrs. Liang up with Madam Xia and left this place of trouble first, so as not to get it over and over again later, and things would also be on her head. After all, before Dong Guifeng was seeking death, the maid in her room also came to her, probably because she wanted to be beaten and let her sister-in-law take justice, but she stayed in the door. As a sister-in-law, she was also responsible.
Mrs. Liang was not willing to leave her son. But she was really uncomfortable. She was startled again at this time. She had long been limp and was helped out by Zhuang and Madam Xia. Before leaving the house, she only begged to Mr. Liang: "Master, show mercy, that is your biological son!"
Mr. Liang didn't care about Mr. Liang at all. He didn't even look at Mr. Liang's third son who was lying on the ground screaming. He only said to Mr. Dong: "In-law. I don't know that this rebellious son beat his daughter-in-law with that hand, but he is used to his right hand. Now I interrupt his right hand to apologize to the in-laws first. Of course, the life of the daughter-in-law is not something that can be defeated by one hand. The rest will be left to you. The in-laws are civil servants, so it is not convenient to do it. As long as you say a word, I will immediately understand the beast with my own hands and pay my wife's life."
Now, everyone in the Dong family, including Mrs. Meng, was stunned.
Judging from Mr. Liang's expression, it doesn't seem like he is lying. He can break his son's hand without saying a word. His heart is very cold and hard.
Compared to the vague words that Mrs. Liang said before, finding her son and letting the Dong family deal with it, Mr. Liang's actions eliminated the consequences and did not turn all the blame on the Dong family. The father taught his son a lesson and was beaten to death without any complaints. No one could say anything. He would do it, and the Dong family would not have to sue.
No matter how Mr. Liang treats Dong Guifeng badly, the Dong family cannot say anything if they deal with this.
At present, the problem is left to the Dong family. If you just let it go, you are still a little unwilling to accept it. But if you don’t forget it, would you really want to beat Master Liang to death to Dong Guifeng on the spot?
If this is true, if it is spread, the Liang family will have a reputation for destroying their relatives for justice. On the other hand, the Dong family has become unreasonable. After all, it is inevitable that a married daughter will suffer grievances in her in-laws' family. Even if the in-laws can do it a little bit, as long as they don't kill the Dong family's daughter with their own hands, they will not be able to pay their lives.
In the flower hall, everyone didn't say anything. Only the pain of Mr. Liang fell to the ground and begged for mercy, while Mr. Liang only looked at Mr. Dong and didn't say anything.
But Mr. Dong dared not say anything at this time, for fear of saying something wrong, Mr. Liang would beat Mr. Liang to death on the spot. The Liang family left it clean in this incident, and the Dong family would become the target of public criticism.
They are all men and all in the officialdom. Mr. Dong knows that Mr. Liang can do such things. Men can often sacrifice everything for the sake of their future and official positions. What's more, Mr. Liang has more than one son and even several grandsons. There is really no shortage of incompetent one.
After a moment of silence, Mrs. Meng spoke again. I heard that Mr. Liang had also practiced martial arts in his early years, and those who practiced martial arts were naturally stronger than others. This is quite similar to Meng. Meng could get rid of his biological daughter without blinking. Now Mr. Liang is the same.
Mrs. Meng said: "Mr. Liang, please allow me to say justice. We just want to know the truth, not to solve the problem so roughly, rather than simply wanting who can pay our lives."
"Yes, I just want to know the truth." Mr. Dong also reacted at this time and said in accordance with Mrs. Meng's words, "If my daughter is wrong, we are not willing to wrongly accuse her son-in-law."
Mr. Liang said coldly: "Now I am not favoring my son, but my daughter-in-law is just like a daughter-in-law. There is nothing else. I am a little bit arrogant and always dislike my son for not growing up. I just want to see my husband come back... There are disputes between husband and wife, and Gui Feng often goes back to her parents' home, so I guess she won't say anything at all, right?"
"This..." Mr. Dong felt a little guilty and did not dare to look at Mr. Liang in the eyes.
The daughter went back to her parents' home to seek help. They naturally knew it, and Mrs. Dong refused without hesitation, and even scolded her daughter severely, making her leave cry.
Mr. Liang continued: "After all, my wife died in the Liang family. I can understand your parents' sadness, but now it has come to this point. Our Liang family can do only a limited amount of what you have to ask for. As for the truth, what truth do you think you can have? Can your daughter still be killed by our Liang family and pretend to be hanging?"
When they faced Mrs. Liang just now, everyone was a little tough, but when they met Mrs. Liang, who was even more tough, even Mrs. Meng, who had always been good at speaking, could not speak.
"Master, I feel a little dizzy." Mrs. Dong said. She was about to fall down by helping Mr. Dong.
"Madam..." Mr. Dong quickly supported Mrs. Dong.
The matter was in chaos afterwards. Mrs. Dong fainted and pinched her for a long time before she woke up. After waking up, she insisted on not staying in the Liang family. Mr. Dong quickly sent her home and asked the eldest lady to see a doctor. As for Dong Guifeng's affairs, she could only do this first.
Mrs. Meng was unwilling to give up, but she couldn't. She had to go back to the Dong family.
There were a lot of things in the Dong family, and the Liang family's affairs were not resolved. Mr. Dong didn't have time to stay with his wife, so he had to ask Mrs. Meng to take care of it first, and then rushed to the Liang family.
After Mr. Dong left, he held the maid away, leaned half on the bed, looked at his sister, and seemed to complain: "Sister, what's going on with you in the Liang family just now? Do you really want to make things worse?"
In the end, this kind of incident will mostly be a loss. Dong Guifeng is not Mrs. Dong's biological daughter, so she is too lazy to care about how Dong Guifeng died. As long as the matter is not involved in her, it will not affect the Dong family. But Mrs. Meng's words just now obviously wanted to make things worse.
In front of my sister, Madam Meng was not convenient to say something, and said, "Sister, I am also for your own good. Some things must be taken advantage of. If I didn't speak just now, and follow Mrs. Liang's words, now she speaks nicely, then turn against the Dong family, and even pushes the blame on you, that's really hard to tell. Don't forget that you had a dispute with Dong Guifeng before, and you didn't completely find out the reason for Dong Guifeng's death. If someone mentioned it in the future, you would be suspected of forcing your stepdaughter to death. When your nephew grows up, it's hard to say it's a marriage."
Mrs. Dong also knows this truth, but the matter is indeed related to her, what can she say?
Mrs. Meng advised: "Sister, you did nothing wrong. Just remember that it was the Liang family that forced Guifeng to ask for help everywhere. You, the mother, couldn't stand it. Then she went to the Liang family to remind her. What does it have to do with you?"
"But..." Mrs. Dong was still a little timid and said, "It's really going to make a big deal, it's not good for the Dong family. Sister, you know that Dong Guifeng is really a man who has a lot of problems. Who knows whether she did something wrong in the Liang family and was taken over by someone. If the Liang family is forced into a hurry and shakes up the matter, it's not bad if the Dong family falls into trouble, wouldn't it be?"
"Sister, we women should not be too timid. I always feel that Dong Guifeng's death is not simple. If you don't figure it out, there will definitely be hidden dangers in the future." Mrs. Meng said this and paused, "If the Liang family is too injuring and has a ghost in their hearts, they will definitely turn the tables afterwards. You will still suffer losses at that time. We will take the lead now and completely suppress the Liang family to prevent future troubles. You are my own sister. Will the sister harm you?"
"That's right, but Mr. Liang has an explanation now that he is like this." Mrs. Dong still wants to calm down and sighed, "Sister, I'm different from you. I just want to live a peaceful life. I really don't want to be troublesome. As for the future rumors, will I still suffer less in my life? Let's forget it."
Mrs. Meng advised her for a long time, but Mrs. Dong also had her own insistence and did not want to interfere in this matter anymore, causing trouble.
In desperation, she had to go back to the mansion first. When she returned home, it was completely dark. In the front yard, Meng was in the banquet, and there was a lot of noise. She didn't know who was invited. She was too lazy to care about it. She felt so tired that she changed her clothes and lay down for a while until her close maid brought her bird's nest porridge. She drank a few sips and couldn't eat it anymore.
Lying in bed and unable to sleep, I always feel that this matter is not simple, and Mr. Liang's extremely decisive attitude further proves the problem.
But today my sister has already stated that if she doesn't want her to care about this matter anymore, she has no excuse to get any clues from the Liang family, but she is unwilling to know that something is strange, and she pretends not to know.
After tossing and turning all night, the next day, Mrs. Meng made up her mind to go to Dingwang Mansion to explore Xiaofu's words.
Arrive at Dingwang Mansion.
When Mrs. Meng saw that Su Yiqing was still listless, she reluctantly said a few words of concern to her opening remarks, she pretended to be careless about the death of Dong Guifeng in advance.
Sure enough, as soon as he said that, the woman in front of her suddenly widened her eyes, as if she was surprised, and then her eyes looked at her became a little weird.
Mrs. Meng's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that as she expected, Dong Guifeng's death could be related to Xiaofu?
How is this possible? There is no possibility of any connection between Dong Guifeng and Xiaofu. Apart from being attacked on the way to Yancheng, the two seemed to be unable to even meet. Even outside Yancheng, in front of the group of servants, she had never heard of any contact between the two. She had asked the nanny who was following the car at that time before.
The nannies said in unison that the lady had no contact with the lady of the Dong family, and did not seem to know each other.
But because of this, Dong Guifeng suddenly wanted to find Xiaofu, which made people wonder whether the two really had any contact, otherwise Dong Guifeng would never find Xiaofu.
While Mrs. Meng's mind was moving, although she tried her best to hide her expression, Su Yiqing still saw that it was unnatural.
These two people, who are all different, have something in common, and both doubt that they have hidden something about this matter.
Mrs. Meng doubted what relationship Su Yiqing had with Dong Guifeng, and even if Dong Guifeng died so coincidentally, was it a human factor?
Su Yiqing thought so. Dong Guifeng came to the house before and said that she knew Miss Hu Qi's death and Miss Hu Qi had nothing to do with her. How could she come to ask to see her and tell her about this?
