Du Bingyan sent the dumb girl downstairs, and Liu Ruoqian told Qi Tianlei: "The dumb girl is not dumb, it just takes some effort to get her to speak."

According to the discussed plan, Du Bingyan invited their mother and daughter in the name of letting Erniang teach her to embroider local patterns.

The erniang's surname was Wang, and she entered the mansion 18 years ago. Shortly after giving birth to Qi Yansheng, Qi Tianlei's father passed away.

These years, although the Qi Mansion has not treated her badly, but because she has no son and is an aunt, she is not shrewd enough, so her status in the Qi Mansion is not high, and she can't say much.

Aunt Wang herself is also a nosy person, she only focuses on raising Qi Yansheng, and later because her natal brother's life is difficult, she asks the old matriarch to take over her brother's daughter Xiangping.

The old lady doesn't care about how many little girls there are in the huge Qi mansion, not to mention she still has the heart to make Wang Xiangping Tianlei's concubine.

Qi Yansheng suddenly had a high fever four years ago, now the more he thinks about it, the more wrong it is, Qi Tianlei also feels that it is time for them to tell the truth.

Erniang and Qi Yansheng entered Jichang Xinyuan, Qi Tianlei and Du Bingyan chatted for a while, Erniang was also very sensitive, she felt something was wrong as soon as she came in, Du Bingyan said that she wanted to ask her about embroidery, but after she came, she didn't know. He didn't see her take out any embroidery to prepare, but he just invited her to drink tea and chatted with her.

Erniang then asked: "Bingyan, what are you going to embroider?"

Du Bingyan said: "I want to embroider a picture."

"Embroidered characters?" Although it's not new, Er Niang also felt strange, "What characters are embroidered?"

Du Bingyan looked at Erniang, then at Yansheng, and said slowly: "Just embroider these four words: shut up."

"What?" Erniang lost her voice and almost knocked over the teacup.

"Or don't embroider these four characters, then embroider 'pretending to be deaf and dumb'."

Qi Yansheng was an innocent little girl, she trembled when she heard it, and shook her mother's clothes.

Although Erniang is not a troublemaker, she still has a strong ability to protect herself. She tried her best to maintain her calm and said, "The third young lady is a joker."

"No, I'm not joking." Du Bingyan said seriously.

"What... what do you mean? I don't quite understand what Third Young Mistress means."

"Erniang, don't worry, let Tianlei tell you a story first."

Qi Tianlei cleared his throat and said: "Once upon a time, there was a family with a prosperous family business. Later, relatives with other surnames came in. Because they coveted the family property, they tried to put a poisonous snake to kill the second son of the family, and then poisoned him." Murdered the third son so that he could inherit the family business. But these things were seen by the second daughter of this family, and the second wife had to teach her daughter to pretend to be deaf and dumb in order to survive."

Speaking of this, Er Niang couldn't sit still anymore.

"Fortunately, the poison did not kill the third son, but instead allowed him to slowly find out the evil deeds of his relatives with other surnames. He wanted his sister to testify against the villain, but it was very difficult. If the younger sister really didn't want to testify, then he could only let it go. The villain was in power, and in the end the whole family was murdered and died, and all the family property belonged to the villain..."

Having said that, anyone who is not stupid will understand what this means.

As soon as Erniang heard this, she covered her face and began to cry, Qi Yansheng even made a plop, knelt down in front of the third brother, and began to cry bitterly.

"Third brother and third sister-in-law, it's not that Yan Sheng deliberately pretended to be deaf..."

Qi Tianlei and Du Bingyan hurriedly helped up sister Yansheng, and kept comforting the weeping Erniang.

"Er Niang, don't be afraid, it's not that I don't understand you, after all, I have pretended to be sick for several years to save my life..." Qi Tianlei said.

As soon as these words came out, both Erniang and Qi Yansheng stopped their eyes and looked at him strangely.

Qi Tianlei was no different from ordinary people, even a little more energetic, and said: "You heard me right, in fact, my illness has been cured long ago, but in order to prevent evil people from harming me and find out the truth, I had to pretend to be ill."

Seeing this, Erniang and Qi Yansheng were no longer afraid, and told the whole story of the year in full detail.

More than four years ago, the old matriarch had a birthday banquet, and many guests came to the mansion.

At the beginning of the birthday banquet, Qi Yansheng went to find his second brother to have the banquet, but at the door of the house where the second brother lived, he accidentally saw a bearded man let a few snakes out of a bamboo basket.

Qi Yansheng was so frightened that she ran away and went back to her room without even eating. She told her mother about this when her mother came to look for her.

Erniang is a person who doesn't want to make trouble, and the old lady's birthday banquet is not easy to spoil the old man's interest, so she plans to talk about it the next day.

Unexpectedly, that night, the second son was bitten to death by a poisonous snake.

Erniang cried: "I really regret that I didn't say it in time. Afterwards, I was afraid that the old lady would blame me, so I had no choice but to hide the matter. I also asked Yan Sheng to pretend to be dumb, so as to prevent Ke Shizhao from coming to secretly kill him."

Qi Tianlei raised his head and held back his tears...

Du Bingyan said calmly: "Thousands of mistakes, it was ultimately Ke Shizhao's fault. He wanted to find someone to murder him. Even if he told the story at the time, it might not be him who was found out. In the future, he will find other opportunities to do it." .”

Erniang sincerely apologized: "No, it's my fault. If I'm not so timid, I can find out the relationship between that bearded man and Ke Shizhao."

"How did you know that Ke Shizhao was the mastermind behind the scenes?" Du Bingyan asked.

"It was only after I learned that the third son was poisoned that I slowly figured it out." Erniang cried again, "After all, I am still afraid of death, otherwise the third son will not be tortured by the poison. .”

Qi Yansheng also cried: "Third Brother, I was also at fault."

Qi Tianlei sighed, endured his grief and said: "Sister Yansheng, I don't blame you for this matter, you were only eleven or twelve years old at the time, and you didn't have the ability to protect yourself at all..."

Du Bingyan also agreed and said: "Yes, the matter has already happened. Fortunately, Tianlei is in good health and his family business has not been stolen."

"So, shall I confess my mistake in front of the old lady now?" Er Niang asked.

"No need." Qi Tianlei said, "I just need you to hide for a while to avoid the limelight, and come out when necessary."

"Where do you go to avoid the limelight?"

"Go to Shu Mansion in Yunxian County to stay for a few days, but you said that you have returned to your mother's house. Wang Xiangping also went to Shu Mansion together. Remember, don't let her know about these things, just take her to a relative's house for a few days. God. As for Sister Yansheng, I will wrong you to pretend to be dumb for a few days." Qi Tianlei ordered.

Erniang asked a little worriedly: "What about you?"

"We want to stay in the mansion, catch ghosts and exorcise evil spirits!" Qi Tianlei said.

"Yes, now is the critical moment, we can't leave. But don't worry, the owner of the Shu Mansion is a reliable friend of Tianlei, you will know when you go, and we will pick you up in a few days." Du Bingyan comforted .
