Wishful Things

Chapter 70 Illusion

"After Qing'er's accident, she made a few troubles, the prince restrained her feet, and forbade her to appear in front of people again..."

Wen Shi is not stupid, knowing Xu Mingyi's intention to ask this question, Dang even ordered the dowry mother to bring Cui Yunwei over.

Although she has asked all the questions that should be asked, she and Wei'er have been overwhelmed by anxiety and worry these days. Maybe the elder sister and the girl from the Xu family can ask other key points.

"Mother, there is news about the second sister?!"

Cui Yunwei quickly came to the Shiziyuan, and walked quickly all the way with the corner of her skirt, almost rushing into the inner room.

Looking at her daughter, who was sweating on her forehead, with an expectant and uneasy expression, Wen's heart throbbed again, she shook her head slightly, and said, "It's your aunt and cousin who want to ask about your second sister."

Cui Yunwei suppressed her disappointment, so she was able to pay respects to Cui Shi.

"Aunt, Cousin Zhaozhao..."

"Sit down and talk." Cui said softly.

Cui Yunwei nodded and sat down, her pale face was no longer lively and bright as before.

"From Cousin Wei's point of view, was there anything unusual about Cousin Qing before the accident?" Xu Mingyi asked aloud, "Or, have you ever seen anyone worthy of attention?"

Since he went out alone and sold off the jewelry, even if it wasn't for elopement, there must be something else going on inside.

Wen looked at her daughter and said, "Wei'er, think about it..."

"Two days before my second sister's accident, I had a severe wind and cold, so I didn't go out of the yard. On the day of my second sister's accident, I recovered a lot after taking a nap, but I went to her yard to look for her, but the maid said she had gone out, so I went I went back. I didn't know that my second sister was gone until the next day!"

Cui Yunwei recalled with a remorseful expression: "The last time I saw my second sister was three days before her accident - that day I went to Shangyu Pavilion with my second sister to buy a bracelet for my mother."

If the wind and cold were milder in those few days, she wouldn't miss her second sister for a few days, and why didn't she notice any clues.

But before that, she really didn't feel that there was anything wrong with the second sister from the beginning to the end——

Hearing this, what happened in Shangyu Pavilion that day flashed through Xu Mingyi's mind.

It turns out that Cousin Qing happened three days after she appeared in Shangyu Pavilion.

When the matter of buying the bracelet was brought up, Wen's heart ached even more.

She didn't know that the things she looked at in Shangyu Pavilion that day were secretly remembered by her two daughters.

After buying the bracelet, Qing'er also said that when she saw her forced a smile on the bracelet in Shangyu Pavilion that day, she felt very uncomfortable, and a daughter wanted to make her mother happy.

But where is her forced smile...

She was thinking at the time that although she couldn't buy the bracelet today, her mother-in-law didn't have long to live, and when the gift and dowry returned to her, she would buy whatever she wanted in the future? ——Thinking about it like this, I couldn't help but let out a hint of a smile.

But Qing'er was so careful that she thought about it so much.

This is nothing at all, after all, the daughter is filial and considerate, and the mother can only be gratified.

But it happened that Qing'er had an accident within three days after buying the bracelet——

"In order to buy this bracelet for me, these two children took out all their private money." Wen said shamelessly: "I thought, Qing'er must have some money to use, but She has a bit of arrogance, she probably didn't want to be known, so she went out of the house alone to sell the jewelry quietly. If it is because of this, she encountered some villains or schemes on the road... Could it be that I, the mother, harmed her?"

"Mother, what are you talking about! It's the person who harmed the second sister who was wrong, so how could it be the mother!"

Cui Yunwei bit her lips, summoned up her courage and said, "If you want me to say, Xia Xi may not have done this! That day in Shangyu Pavilion, she made things difficult for me and my second sister in every possible way. Maybe it was because of her deliberate revenge. !"

Wen's expression changed slightly.

"Wei'er, how can you speak nonsense with such unsubstantiated words, but have you forgotten why your father restrained your feet?"

She also asked her father to roughly check this matter, and there was nothing unusual about the fourth girl of the Xia family recently.

"Without evidence, it's true that you can't easily blame others. But if there is something suspicious, you should say it." Xu Mingyi looked at Cui Yunwei, and asked: "Aside from Xia Xi, has Cousin Qing ever had conflicts with other people?" ?”

Cui Yunwei shook her head without thinking.

"Second Sister is introverted and kind-hearted. If she is not forced to rush, she will never argue with others!"

"Where is the one named Qi Lin?"

Xu Mingyi asked again: "Is he really in touch with Cousin Qing?"

"There are some exchanges." Cui Yunwei said honestly: "When my second sister and I were studying in the clan since we were young, he also often went to the school, but in the past two years, we have hardly seen each other."

She and her second sister have not been to school since they turned twelve last year.

Qi Lin waited on Bi Mo by his father's side. He was in the front yard, so he rarely had the chance to meet them.

"But if it is said that the second sister eloped with him... with him, it is absolutely impossible! Cui Yunwei said firmly.

Xu Mingyi was noncommittal, but continued to ask: "Before the accident, was there anything different about Qi Lin?"

These matters must have been carefully investigated by the uncle's residence.

Sure enough, I heard Wen said: "a few days before that, it happened that his mother was seriously ill outside the mansion, and he went back and forth between Yubo's mansion and his old house all day long, and he often didn't see anyone for half a day. No one will notice."

A person whose mother is seriously ill at home, even if he behaves a little differently than before, will not be taken seriously.

"Seriously ill?" Cui frowned slightly.

The mother at home is seriously ill, and still in the mood to elope like others?

No matter how you look at it, it's not right.

"On the second day after Qing'er disappeared, the mansion sent people to visit his home, only to find that the woman had died of illness... It seems that it has been a day or two." Speaking of this, Wen's expression changed again. It's a bit ugly: "That is to say, before he disappeared, he should have known that his mother had passed away, but he didn't mention it to the public, and he didn't prepare for the funeral! However, all the valuable things in the family have been sold off. gone."

That's why some of the servants in the mansion said, "This is a secret preparation for elopement outside the mansion in the name of serving the seriously ill mother", "Seeing that my mother is dead, I have no more worries, and I don't even care about the funeral." After processing, the second girl was taken away" and such speculations.

Xu Mingyi listened and thought about it.

This man named Qi Lin was obviously very suspicious.

If it is not elopement, then this person is deliberately creating the illusion of elopement.

Such an intention is undoubtedly to prevent the uncle's house from going into this matter in depth, so as to cover up and confuse the truth about his cousin's disappearance——

So... Did he come up with a crooked idea, or was he bribed by someone?

At the third watch, ask for a monthly ticket.

Thank you Qinghan for the 50,000 coins rewarded, ahhh I am so grateful that I will pay back slowly
