To avoid harassment from my brother-in-law, I got married to a wealthy man

Lu Xi stood there stiffly, her mind went blank for a moment, and only Tanya's words echoed in her ears over and over again like a spell: I'm not the only one who saw this!

She didn't come to her senses until Tanya left, and in the end it was Zhuang Yi who pushed her.

"Xixi, are you okay? I tell you, don't take my grandma's words seriously. She's acting like a lunatic every day." Zhuang Yi rolled her eyes and felt speechless when she thought of what she had just said.

How could a good person say such things for no reason? Her grandmother is really bad and stupid. I don’t know how such a person could give birth to such positive people like her mother and uncle.

Lu Xi felt cold all over, because Tanya's words were too certain, and if more than one person saw it, then it was very likely true.

Her mother gave birth prematurely at that time, which happened to be the day when Tan Jing committed suicide. Could it be that she was seriously traumatized and mentally disturbed, so she did that? !

Her mother caused Tan Jing to lose her child, and subconsciously she felt that her child should not have been born?

Lu Xi was in a state of confusion. After she came out of her shock, she immediately said in a hurry: "Yiyi, I have to go home quickly. I have something to ask my mother."

Zhuang Yi also knew that the problem was serious. She put down the baby clothes in her hand, nodded and said, "Okay, I'll take you home. You can call your uncle and ask him to go to your house directly to find you, so that she won't come back empty-handed."

"Okay." Lu Xi did as he was told.

The two of them returned to the Shen family in a hurry. Lu Xi only said to Zhuang Yi, "I'll go in first," and quickly ran into the villa, "Mom! Mom!"

The mother and daughter had just had an argument the day before yesterday. Wei Yutong knew her daughter was angry, so she made a small cake to cheer her daughter up. At this moment, she heard Lu Xi calling her, and hurried out of the kitchen with a smile on her face, "Jiu'er, you're back? Are you not angry with your mother anymore?"

Lu Xi walked up to her and asked straight to the point: "Mom, do you remember the day my sister was born?"

Wei Yutong's face froze. She tried to recall the scene at that time, but she could only remember fragmentary images, blurry and messy. She shook her head, "I only vaguely remember crying my heart out and saying sorry over and over again."

Lu Xi's heart sank. This was not a good sign.

But she couldn't tell her mother what Tanya said, otherwise if it irritated her mother, who knows what would happen.

Moreover, her mother had many old scars on her body, especially on her left wrist. She must have cut her wrist before, and the cut was very deep. She was not just pretending. She would only do that if she was determined to die.

She didn't know how Wei Yutong managed to get through it.

"Jiu'er, why are you asking this all of a sudden? Is there any news about my sister? Did He Chunye tell me?"

Lu Xi's face turned pale and she shook her head. "No, I was just asking casually to see if there were any clues."

Wei Yutong's eyes dimmed, she lowered her eyes, and murmured, "My Puff, she must be suffering somewhere."

Just at this moment, Shen Cong came over and looked at his daughter tenderly, "I was wondering why the air felt sweet, it turns out that my daughter is back."

"Dad, I have something to tell you." Lu Xi turned to look at Shen Congrong.

Seeing her serious expression, Shen Congrong laughed and said, "Okay, let's go to the study to talk."

The two entered the study room one after the other. Shen Congrong asked with a smile, "What made my daughter so nervous?"

"Dad, could my sister have been my mother..."

She hesitated to speak, obviously having some reservations.

Shen Congrong's smile faded, and a hint of coldness seeped into his eyes, "Jiuer, what do you want to say?"

"I want to say that someone saw that my mother strangled my sister to death. Is it possible that my mother was..."

Snapped!

Before Lu Xi could finish her words, Shen Congrong slapped the coffee table with a loud noise.

He looked at his daughter sternly: "Nonsense! Where did you hear this rumor?! Don't you know who your mother is? You believe this nonsense? You really disappoint us!"

Lu Xi trembled violently, then her face became stern and she remained silent.

Shen Congrong angrily tapped the coffee table with his fingers and demanded, "Tell me, who told you this?!"

Lu Xi didn't look up, "Just pretend I didn't say anything."

"No! You must tell me today! I want to see which bastard is making such alarmist remarks! What is she planning?" Shen Congrong was determined and exuded murderous aura. He was really angry!

But he also knew that it must not be He Chunye!

Lu Xi bit her lip. She didn't want to say anything at first, but her father's eyes were too sharp and full of intimidation. She could only take a deep breath and then utter the word "Tanya".

When Shen Congrong heard that it was that woman, he immediately flew into a rage, "Can you believe her words?! You should have less contact with that woman in the future, she is not a good person."

Lu Xi lowered her eyelashes. "It was just that we met today when we were shopping in the supermarket. There was a small conflict and she said this when she was impulsive."

Shen Congrong suppressed his anger and said, "It's not your fault, it's all the fault of that gambler. She just can't stand seeing your mother doing well.

"Your mother and Tan Jing were best friends before. She and Tan Jing had never gotten along since they were young. She had a bad personality, so her parents naturally favored Tan Jing. She never knew how to look for the reason from herself. Instead, she was jealous of Tan Jing and opposed her in every way.

"Tanya once thought about sowing discord and snatching your mother away from Tan Jing to become her best friend, but after all, they were not the same kind of people. Your mother couldn't get along with her, so she held a grudge against her.

"When your mother gave birth to your sister, Tan Jing had an accident. As a sister, her own sister committed suicide, but she didn't feel sad at all. Instead, she ran to the hospital and told your mother that she did a good job!

"It was because of her that your mother was so emotional that she almost fainted from crying. Can you believe what a person like her says? If you really believed her, it would really chill your mother's heart."

Lu Xi frowned and asked in a muffled voice, "I remember that Tanya seemed to have a good relationship with my mother before? Didn't they discuss Shen Youran's marriage together?"

Shen Congrong snorted coldly, "What do you mean by good? It's just superficial work. Tanya felt that your mother was the cause of Tan Jing's death, so she liked her more. In addition, Shen Youran was successful in his career at that time, and the old man of the Fu family was interested in marriage, so naturally she became closer to your mother.

"Anyway, this person is mentally ill, stay away from her."

Lu Xi nodded. Tanya was indeed unreliable and her words could not be trusted, but she always felt that there was something fishy going on.

After the father and daughter finished talking, Wei Yutong had already prepared dinner, with an unnatural expression, "Jiu'er, eat at home when you get home."

Lu Xi lowered her eyes, "Fu Nanzhou will come to pick me up later."

"Are you still angry with me? Jiuer, I apologize to you. I shouldn't have been so harsh with you. I was just too anxious at the time. Knowing that your sister was still alive, I was upset and wanted to find her quickly so that our family could be reunited."

Wei Yutong's voice was a little choked up. She felt that she was a real failure as a mother. Apart from Shen Mo who grew up healthily by her side, her two daughters suffered a lot, but she never knew it.

No, it was not just her two daughters, but also Tan Xiangjun. It was all because of her. Sometimes she really hated herself and even hurt herself with a knife.

"Mom, I know everything. I don't blame you. Don't worry. Mother and daughter don't hold grudges overnight. And if my sister is really still alive, we will definitely find her. She will return to the Shen family healthy and intact like me."

Wei Yutong's eyes were filled with tears and she nodded continuously.

Half an hour later, Fu Nanzhou came to pick up Lu Xi.

On the way, he already knew what Tanya had said. His relationship with the Shen family was already a bit stiff, and this time it was even more awkward, so he did not enter the villa. He only sent a message to Lu Xi to tell her that he had arrived.

Lu Xi did not stay at home for dinner. She took the small cake made by Wei Yutong and left the Shen family.

"I've already told Grandpa about this. You don't have to believe anything she says!"

Lu Xi looked at Fu Nanzhou, "I just don't understand why she said that about my mother?"

Fu Nanzhou remained silent, unable to give a correct answer.

As for Tanya, after Fu Nanzhou filed a complaint, she returned to the Fu family's old house and was scolded harshly.

Fu Zongze was so angry that he pointed at Tanya with a trembling hand, "Didn't I tell you not to mention this matter again? You turned around and told Lu Xi about it. Are you deliberately trying to piss me off to death? Get out! Get out of the Fu family right now! I can't tolerate you here!"

"Dad! Why are you so angry? This matter has nothing to do with us. You saw it at that time. I didn't wrongly accuse Wei Yutong." Tanya was so angry at the time that she didn't think of the old man's warning at all. Now she doesn't think she did anything wrong. She was just telling the truth.
