A concubine enters the mansion? Reborn, three matchmakers and six engagements to marry the Prime Min

Chapter 218 The truth about the death of the old man of the Shen family

Su Qingyu was indeed tired, tired and sleepy. And even if she went along, she wouldn't be able to help him. He still had to take care of her.

After sending Shen Zhixiu to the door, Su Qingyu returned to the inner room to bathe and change clothes.

Lying on the bed, I thought I would fall asleep soon, but after tossing and turning for half an hour, I didn't feel sleepy at all.

In the end, I don't know if I was too tired, but I seemed to fall asleep.

Half asleep and half awake, I smelled a familiar scent again, and immediately fell into a familiar embrace.

Shen Zhixiu hugged her from behind and buried his face in the back of her neck.

Su Qingyu opened her eyes and held his hand firmly. She didn't need to look back to know that his mood had reached rock bottom.

Su Qingyu didn't take the initiative to speak, she just gently rubbed the back of his hand.

After a long time, I heard Shen Zhixiu say: "Chen Pinghui deserves to die."

The tone was calm, like chatting.

Su Qingyu heard the murderous intent in his words, and knew that the matter behind this might be more serious than she thought.

She sat up, got out of bed and lit a lamp.

"Then, Third Master, tell me what happened."

After returning to the bed, she looked at his expression carefully. He looked calm, but he could feel the coldness surrounding him.

Shen Zhixiu sat up and half leaned against the head of the bed, while Su Qingyu sat down facing him, holding a soft pillow in her hand.

The black hair hangs down, and the cold side face is much softer than in the daytime.

After she sat down, Shen Zhixiu also spoke about the interrogation of Mr. Qian.

It is said that Mr. Qian told everything he knew without any torture. For Mr. Qian, the account book had been taken away by Su Qingyu, so it was meaningless for him to hide anything. It would be better to tell the truth, and maybe he could save the lives of his family.

The fire also made Mr. Qian see the matter clearly. It was impossible for him to survive alone.

Shen Zhixiu glanced at Su Qingyu gratefully. She had done so much for him. If it weren't for her, this matter wouldn't have surfaced so quickly. It was all her fault that it was so easy to interrogate Mr. Qian.

"In addition to doing two sets of accounts and being greedy for money, she also delayed my father's treatment."

Shen Zhixiu said, and the last few words were obviously trembling.

Su Qingyu took the initiative to hold his hand without saying a word. She knew what it was like to lose a loved one, and she knew how uncomfortable he was right now.

Shen Zhixiu continued, "My father died of a sudden illness in the mansion. At that time, I was on a mission to Xiangyang Prefecture. When I hurried back, he was already in the coffin and ready for burial."

"After interrogating Mr. Qian today, I learned that Chen Pinghui secretly exchanged many valuable medicinal materials in the house, including ginseng tablets."

"After my father became ill, the doctor asked him to hold the ginseng tablets in his mouth first, and immediately sent someone to call for Liu Yuanzheng of Taiyuan Hospital."

"When Liu Yuanzheng arrived, the man had already passed away. After I returned to Beijing, I went to see Liu Yuanzheng. He said that although my father's illness was serious, as long as he kept a breath, he was confident that he could save him."

"At that time, I just thought it was luck that caused people, but I didn't expect that it was actually a man-made disaster."

Su Qingyu never expected this, "After I took over the central government of the house, I checked everywhere. No problems were found with the medicinal materials."

Shen Zhixiu explained in a deep voice, "That's because after my father left, Chen Pinghui got scared and hasn't touched the medicinal materials since then."

"When I came back just now, I went to the small study to check the account book. There is indeed this entry in the account book. I have asked someone to check it. Where were the real herbs sold that year, and where were the fake ones bought. There are some clues in the account book, and it should be possible to find out."

Su Qingyu didn't expect that Chen would be so bold. If it is true as Shen Zhixiu said, there is hope for saving people, then Chen's move is no different from killing someone.

The older you take the ginseng tablet, the better the effect will be. Before her grandfather passed away, he also hung himself with ginseng slices for several days.

Seeing Shen Zhixiu looking lonely, Su Qingyu comforted him: "Don't be too sad, Third Master. Let's find out the truth and avenge our father."

This was the first time she saw Shen Zhixiu like this, and she couldn't help but feel distressed.

After another long time, Shen Zhixiu spoke again, "When I was sent to Xiangyang Prefecture, my father did not agree. He thought that I should not be so far away from the power center of the capital. No matter how well the local government does, it is not as good as the capital."

"But I just want to do something practical in the local area. There are some things that I can't see clearly in Beijing."

"When I return to Beijing again, I can only kowtow to his coffin."

"My biggest regret is that I didn't see my father for the last time. I don't regret my decision, but...every time I dream about it at midnight, it's my father's fault."

"Qingqing, do you think I'm wrong? They say I'm an unfilial son if I don't travel far away when my parents are here."

At this time, Shen Zhixiu was not a high-ranking deputy minister in the cabinet, nor was he the one-size-fits-all Third Master Shen. He is just a son who lost his father and feels deeply guilty.

Su Qingyu pressed her lower lip tightly and raised her head to stop the soreness in her eyes.

"This is not your fault. Father Izumi knows well and will not blame you."

Su Qingyu held Shen Zhixiu's hand hard again. When she lowered her head, a teardrop fell on the back of her hand.

She pretended not to notice and hugged him gently.

It was not until Shen Zhixiu's expression and breathing returned to normal that Su Qingyu spoke up, "We can't just let this go. But as for my mother..."

If they want to touch the Chen family, they must go through the old lady's way.

It would be too easy for Chen to deal with such a treasonable matter privately. Su Qingyu wished she could call all the clan elders to convict her together.

Shen Zhixiu held Su Qingyu's shoulders and said, "My mother must say that Chen must die too."

Su Qingyu thought of the kitchen and purchasing managers who had not been in action before. She took this opportunity to clean up the inner house.

It's just that Mrs. Yan, who is in charge of purchasing, is a little restless. Not only is she the younger sister of Grandma Hua, she has often been making fun of the old lady recently.

From Xiangdong to the Ma family, she has already touched many people of the old lady. If she suddenly touches Yan Pozi, the old lady's face will be a little unacceptable.

In addition, Aunt Hua is the old lady's personal nanny. Even though she touched Mrs. Yan, Aunt Hua can't say anything, but there is no guarantee that she will have other thoughts in her heart.

Su Qingyu lowered her eyes and thought for a long time. Suddenly her eyes lit up and she looked at Shen Zhixiu.

"How about Third Master accompanying me in a play?"

"What drama?"

Su Qingyu came closer and whispered for a long time. Shen Zhixiu was slightly stunned after hearing what she said, and then chuckled.

"Madam, are you using me as a shield? It's a good idea. It can also lead to Chen Pinghui's incident. Otherwise, people would think that I am idle and go to check on my biological sister-in-law."

The more Su Qingyu thought about it, the more she felt that this was a good idea, otherwise how Chen's matter would have been exposed would have been a problem.

Early the next morning, before each hospital had finished breakfast, they all heard the news about the West Hospital. It was said that Shen Zhixiu threw the bowl in the morning and became very angry.

Later, someone reported that the third lady had been crying for a long time.

Even Chen, who was under grounding, heard the news.

The West Courtyard, which has always had very strict rules, didn't know what happened today, and these things were spread vividly.
