Chapter 437 Doubtful
Su Yiqing felt that this was the only reasonable explanation. Perhaps Dong Guifeng wanted to use this secret to blackmail her in the hope of getting some benefits, but she ignored it and drove the rumored Madam Qing back to Meng's house, which was equivalent to telling Mrs. Meng about this in disguise.
She is too tired and in poor spirits recently. She doesn't know that this is wrong, but she just doesn't want to care about these things. She also thinks that Dong Guifeng is not a good person, so she lets them do it by themselves. I really didn't expect that Dong Guifeng would die like that.
According to Mrs. Meng, Dong Guifeng died of hang herself, but it was a coincidence that she died.
In addition, Mrs. Meng came here specially to tell her what it meant to tell her? Test her and see how much she knows? Or would she want to warn her not to be too troublesome?
Su Yiqing suddenly felt unhappy about this. Last time Dong Guifeng came, she mentioned Miss Hu Qi's death, which made her dream about Miss Hu Qi for several days. Now Mrs. Meng came again and mentioned Dong Guifeng's death. Maybe she should dream about Dong Guifeng in the next few days.
Su Yiqing is a person who doesn't like to hide her emotions. Everything on her face is easy to reveal. Such displeasure, in Mrs. Meng's eyes, she is even more guilty and embarrassed.
Mrs. Meng regretted it and was reckless. She knew that this matter was related to this concubine's daughter, so she really shouldn't have come to her house like that. Is it touching other people's heart problems now?
Just as Mrs. Meng wanted to say something to make up for it, Su Yiqing spoke in a cold tone: "Miss Dong and I have met one another. Although it is a broken side, it can still be seen that Miss Dong is not like a person who is wronged and hanged after being angry."
Mrs. Meng was even more shocked. She didn't expect Su Yiqing to say the suspicion so directly. This sentence sounded more like a temptation in her ears. She said carefully: "It's not accurate. People with strong personalities are more likely to go to extremes when doing things. Maybe the lady of the Dong family was angry for a moment. No matter how strong this girl is, she has two sisters-in-laws in her two mother-in-laws. Life is also very sad."
This is also the reason why Mrs. Dong tried hard to marry Dong Guifeng. The Liang family looked like a good family on the surface, but in fact, with these two mother-in-laws and two sisters-in-laws, being a young daughter-in-law is a good thing for some cowardly girls who don’t want to manage things, so they don’t have to do it too much. But for those with strong temperament, it’s very bad, so it’s a marriage that is glamorous on the outside but in fact it’s really not a good marriage. Especially the third young master Liang himself is very unsatisfied and cannot help.
"Is that?" Su Yiqing obviously disagreed. She also knew about the situation of the Liang family. For a while, Mrs. Quan Si often came to her house to tell her about it. Many times, people from the same class may not know each other, but the lower class may see more accurately. Mrs. Quan Si's salary is naturally more detailed than anyone else knows. Some noble ladies are not convenient to mention privacy, and some decent servants know more clearly. Ladies with higher identities disdain to deal with their servants, so Mrs. Quan Si did not take it into consideration, so they knew more.
Among the powerful people in Yancheng, the Liang family is also a typical example. The population is prosperous. The father and son are four, except for the third son of Liang who are more doting and decadent, Mr. Liang and two other sons are very capable. They have strong momentum in their careers and have wide connections. It is precisely because of this that Mr. Hu, the wife of Mrs. Hu, could be so rampant in the Hu family.
It was Miss Hu who did the wrong thing, but Miss Hu San who ended up marrying the Hong family's pervert. It shows how good Mrs. Hu was.
But if you walk too much at night, you will easily encounter ghosts. If you plot against this and that all day long, there will always be someone who can fight back. Now Mrs. Hu is said to be slumped in the bed and will never die. Miss Hu has to wait in front of you, and no one can help with the marriage. Seeing the 18-year-old girl, she will be delayed for life.
Su Yiqing's disapproval was another understanding in Mrs. Meng's eyes. She didn't dare to test it, and just said vaguely: "I accompanied your aunt in Dong's family to see Dong Guifeng. It really didn't seem to be harmed. Mr. Liang was tough and said that he really had to doubt it. He could ask a coroner for a post-mortem, and Dong Guifeng's accompanying room could also testify. Dong Guifeng was in a bad mood at that time, and the maid and mother beside her were also worried and dared not leave. She thought she could not make a fake."
"Sometimes, killing people may not require direct action." Su Yiqing said this lightly.
"Xiao Fu...what are you talking about?" Mrs. Meng was holding a cup of tea, trying to moisten her throat. After hearing Su Yiqing's words, her hand couldn't help but shake, and a few drops of tea were dissipated.
"It's nothing, just kidding." Su Yiqing smiled a little.
Mrs. Meng didn't know how to answer the conversation. After all, it was human life. Is this a time to joke? She didn't think that Xiaofu was someone who liked to make such jokes, so she could only force herself to say, "I don't think Dong Guifeng, a lady in the boudoir, wouldn't make anyone kill her."
"Maybe, but if you want to die alone, it may not be because she offended you." Su Yiqing said this with a pun.
Mrs. Meng felt a chill spread on her back, and her face turned pale a little instantly. She remembered what happened before. Meng Ye wanted to kill her biological daughter. She was used to Meng Ye's orders at that time and then followed Meng Ye's orders... After that, Xiao Fu showed that he didn't seem to mind, and what he did in the future seemed to be for the good of the Meng family.
But now I think about it, there is no such a broad-minded person. However, it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years. Meng Xiaofu can only take less than ten years. It takes more than ten months to make the Meng family fall into a place of doom.
Thinking about it again, Dong Guifeng looks like she has nothing to do with Xiaofu on the surface, but looking back at the beginning, it was Xiaofu who reminded her that Dong Guifeng had close contact with Miss Hu, so she paid attention to Dong Guifeng.
At that time, she didn't think much about it, and she thought Xiaofu had the ability and had her own way, but now that she thought about it, maybe she had already targeted Dong Guifeng, and there must be some entanglement between the two.
With a chill in my heart, Mrs. Meng didn't dare to stay here, the more gloomy the Ding Mansion, which became, the more she looked, she felt the gloomy, and she reluctantly said a few more words and said goodbye in a hurry.
When she returned to Meng's house, Meng had just sent off a few colleagues. When she saw Mrs. Meng coming back, she knew that she had gone to Dingwang Mansion. She asked casually a few times, treating her biological daughter who cared about her.
As soon as she asked this, she couldn't hold back what was hidden in her heart. She couldn't afford such a big thing alone, so she told Meng Ye.
Of course, she didn't tell it all. She just said part of it, just suspecting that there was something strange about Dong Guifeng's death.
Meng also started to see Mrs. Meng nervous, but what she said was like this, and she was a little displeased and said, "What do I do? You don't care about the whole family. Why do you care about others doing so much? Dong Guifeng is not your sister's biological daughter, it has nothing to do with you. We have no contact with the Liang family. How can you care about her death? Are there few ghosts in Yancheng who died unjustly? It's better to have more thoughts on the banquet for me with the guests. Today's banquet was not very good. The dishes were not elegant enough..."
"It's just a few dishes, what's the matter?" Mrs. Meng suddenly became angry. In their military generals' home, who was picky about the dishes and other dishes? Men like to drink big gulp. Eating meat with big bowls is too delicate, but people don't like it.
"You don't understand, tell you." Meng obviously didn't want to argue, and he was about to leave with a robe thrown away.
Mrs. Meng was anxious. She quickly grabbed him and said, "I'm talking about the serious matter... I suspect that Dong Guifeng's death is related to the Ding Palace."
"How is that possible?" Meng Ye's first reaction was that he didn't believe it, and then he felt that Mrs. Meng was not a nonsense person. He suddenly became nervous and asked, "Who did you hear that you went to Dingwang Mansion just now? Did Xiaofu tell you? What did you say?"
Meng also asked several questions in a row.
Mrs. Meng thought about it and said, "Xiao Fu didn't say anything clearly, but the meaning in her words seemed to be suspected that Dong Guifeng was not as simple as hanging herself... In addition, you don't know yet. Dong Guifeng had found Xiao Fu before she died, but Xiao Fu didn't see her, and even drove the rumored Madam Qing back."
"Why didn't you say this earlier?" Meng also became nervous. Even if there were trivial matters in the Ding Palace, it would be related to the Meng family, and it would not be less cautious. Now the Meng family is relying on the Ding Palace.
Mrs. Meng sighed, "Master, you are busy all day long. How did I know that things would be so serious before something happened? Madam Qing had also made a mistake and was driven back. I told you before, just say that I'll make decisions on these small matters in the inner house, and you don't need to ask you."
Meng Ye couldn't speak at once, as if he had really said such things, and then he said vaguely: "This... so many things, I couldn't expect it for a while... Did Xiaofu say what did she have to do with Dong Guifeng?"
"Xiao Fu didn't say..." Mrs. Meng shook her head first, then said, "But after a while, she suddenly said something, sometimes killing people may not require one to do it yourself."
Killing may not require one to do it yourself. Meng also read this sentence in his heart, and his face turned pale and the couple looked at each other.
Mrs. Meng could see that Meng was obviously also worried, and they both understood this sentence the same way.
Meng also felt dry mouth and asked for a long time: "Did Xiaofu say anything else? Did he talk about the Dong family or the Liang family?"
Mrs. Meng said, "She didn't say that, Master, I can't ask Taibai about this kind of thing, but I always have a knot in my heart. If this matter is really related to Xiaofu, should we make plans as soon as possible?"
"What can we do?" Meng also had a headache. What he was most not good at was dealing with these filthy silly homes.
Mrs. Meng thought about it carefully and said, "You can check it privately... What is strange about Dong Guifeng's death? Is there any connection between her and Xiaofu... I mean, is there anything that affects Xiaofu? You know that Xiaofu has been separated from us for so long, and what happened in her heart is sometimes inconvenient to say."
"Okay, just check it privately." Meng also felt that it was nothing to check it.
Mrs. Meng said again: "The first step is to send someone to Jingthorn Town to check it."
"What are you doing in Jingthorn Town?" Meng couldn't figure it out again.
Mrs. Meng said: "Xiao Fu has been in Thorns for so many years... If there is anything we don't even know about, it will probably happen in Thorns. If you look up, you may find out something."
"I'm confused, you just said you wanted to investigate Dong Guifeng's death. Why did you pull it around but you wanted to find Xiaofu's head?" Meng also made a big alarm in his heart. As a man, he was more sensitive than Mrs. Meng's things.
How can I check this kind of thing? If I find something, it would be bad. Could it be that I would reveal my daughter's shortcomings? It would be amazing to let Xiaofu know that they were investigating her.
Xiaofu wants something that he doesn't want people to know. They found out that they can still have good fruits to eat? Jingthorn Town is a small place. If someone really wants to investigate, it is difficult to keep any clues. This is like looking for trouble if you have nothing to do.
Mrs. Meng was scolded by Meng and said a little aggrievedly: "Isn't this for Xiaofu?"
"You are good for Xiaofu? Why do I think you want to threaten Xiaofu?" Meng also spoke to Mrs. Meng without any scruples, and said whatever she thought of.
Mrs. Meng was guilty at first, and then said with confidence: "I am just worried about Xiaofu. If there is really something we can find out, others will definitely be able to do it."
"What do you want if you find out?" Meng also sneered, "I think you are very idle recently and want to find trouble for nothing. Let me tell you that the matter has ended here. You are not allowed to interfere in the affairs of the Dong or Liang family. You just take care of your own affairs and then take good care of your baby daughter and son-in-law, and others don't care."
Mrs. Meng remained silent.
Meng Ye changed the topic at the right time to ease the atmosphere: "Speaking of this, your son-in-law is really not good. I originally planned a flaw for him in the Ministry of Personnel and asked him to be a minor official to study, but he didn't know why, but he refused. Maybe he felt that the official position was too small and he was not worthy of her, a talented man. It was really outrageous. He didn't look at his virtues. Could he really expect to win the top scorer? Although this official position is small, it is an important department. He will do things first and take the scientific exam tomorrow. If he can go further and win a Jinshi or something, it will be easier to take a step forward. He doesn't understand this principle. Yes, Yan'er is also. He will not persuade his husband well, and they will not make any progress."
