Aunt Liu's accusation caused an uproar among everyone present. Shi Chun was the eldest mistress of the Chu family, and it did not sound very reasonable to go out with only one girl, who was her cousin.
Only the old lady sat calmly, watching the farce in front of her with interest.
Shi Chunfen laughed angrily at Aunt Liu's deliberate accusation. She even knew her schedule the day before yesterday. Who would dare to believe that she didn't do it on purpose.
"Since Aunt Liu knows exactly how many people are on my carriage, she should also know that the day before yesterday was the first time my second cousin came to the Chu family to see me. I have never met him a few times in total. Dare we ask?
When did we secretly fall in love, and when did we secretly communicate with each other?"
Hearing her denial, Aunt Liu smiled faintly and said, "How do I know this? Only you know the things about you two. What others see is just the tip of the iceberg that you have exposed. As for what is not exposed behind your back,
, who knows how many more are there?!”
Seeing that what she said became more and more outrageous, while the people around her seemed to be making sense, Shi Chunfen only felt ridiculous in her heart.
It turns out that no matter how outrageous the rumor is, as long as the people listening are willing to believe it, it becomes the "truth". As for the facts, no one will care anymore.
Shi Chunfen lowered her eyebrows. She was no stranger to such a scene where everyone was speaking out. She had already experienced it once in Huating. This time she would never acquiesce to being wronged again.
She took a few deep breaths, quickly calmed down her mood, then turned to look at the two nuns who first accused Yu Abao, and said calmly: "You said you were the one who discovered my second cousin and found someone to take care of him."
He captured it, so when he was captured, did he say why he appeared in the Chu family?"
The two people looked at each other, and Nanny Li said: "He argued that he was here to deliver a message, but since he was delivering a message, why couldn't he just go through the front door and deliver it openly? I think he was clearly making excuses!"
"Yes, yes!" Grandma Wang agreed: "He said he was here to deliver news, but what he stuffed into the wall was a love poem. Only a fool would believe that he is innocent!"
Shi Chunfen raised his eyebrows slightly, with mockery in his eyes, "Then do you know what message he came to deliver?"
The two people were confused, "Didn't I say that he was here to send love poems? How could there be any news?"
Shi Chunquin ignored them, but turned around to look at the old lady, and said directly: "Second cousin said that he would help me find out the rumors in the city. If I guessed correctly, he should be here today.
There are already clues."
"You think so?" Chu Quan couldn't help but interject, "If we really have any clues about the rumor, our Chu family won't even have time to welcome him, so why bother sneaking through the back door?"
The surroundings suddenly became quiet, so quiet that it seemed like you could hear everyone's heartbeat.
Everyone looked at Chu Quan jumping around with more or less inquiring eyes.
Chu Quan realized his gaffe, glanced at Xue Jinxiu guiltily, coughed and said: "What I mean is that everything must be based on evidence. What this person stuffed in was a love poem, not a so-called clue, but something iron-clad."
No matter what the receptionist says, it’s hard to explain this."
"It's strange that they are love poems." Shi Chunfen looked at him with an intriguing look on his face, "The entire Chu family knows that I am going to Caobang to propose marriage today. If my second cousin and I had made an appointment in advance to have an affair, how could they choose me?
Days when you’re not here?”
"Perhaps you didn't have time to notify him, so you were exposed."
"If I didn't have time to notify him, I should have asked my cousin to guard the back door instead of letting him be caught." After saying that, Shi Chunfen looked around and asked, "By the way, where is my cousin? She
If you didn't go out with me today, wouldn't you have arrested me and tortured me?"
Her last sentence was full of sarcasm, as if the huge Chu family could only give in to defeat.
The old lady frowned and said, "Don't worry, I will send someone to take her to my house as soon as it happens. No one will hurt her."
The last sentence was ostensibly a response, but it made many people's faces darken. In their ears, this sentence was more like a warning, warning them not to give in.
Shi Chunfen also heard this and was instantly filled with gratitude to the old lady, but she couldn't show anything, so she had to pretend to be calm and continue: "Please grandma, please let her come out, so that I can confront you in public and see if she is like this."
Aunt Liu said that she has been hiding the affair with my second cousin for me."
"No need to go to such trouble." Aunt Liu interrupted her, "You keep saying that this love poem was not written by your second cousin. As long as you compare the handwriting with him, won't it be clear?"
After saying these words, Yu Abao, who had been lying on the ground panting, became obviously excited and began to struggle whiningly.
Seeing his reaction, Shi Chunfen felt a chill in her heart, "Since someone is deliberately framed, what's so weird about the fact that the handwriting is consistent?"
"Framed?" Xue Jinxiu seemed to have heard some big joke, "Who would frame you at this juncture? Everyone is so busy over the Caogang affairs, how can they have time to frame you?"
"That's right!" Chu Quan sneered: "To put it bluntly, a fly won't bite a seamless egg. Even if someone is really deliberately trying to harm you, you have to be able to get someone to catch you."
The more Chu Yan listened, the more outrageous he became. He couldn't bear to interrupt and said, "That's enough. What are you talking about?" He glared at Chu Quan and said angrily: "If your wife is wrongly accused of adultery,
Would you also blame flies for not biting seamless eggs?"
Qian Ling'er had been sitting quietly in the crowd without making a sound. When she heard what Chu Yan said, she quickly waved her hand, "This is none of my business. Uncle, please don't talk nonsense."
Seeing that she usually kept silent, but was quick to clear up the relationship, Xue Jinxiu glared at her angrily, "What a disgrace!"
Qian Ling'er shrank her neck and said nothing, but she sneered in her heart.
This mother and son act so obviously, do they really think others are fools?
That's fine. The less popular they are in the Chu family, the harder it will be for them to dominate in front of her.
Chu Yan was too lazy to pay attention to the farce in the second room. He looked at Aunt Liu, with disappointment in his eyes. Although he was confused, he was not a fool. He could deliberately favor his beloved aunt during those little quarrels, but now Chu Ling was imprisoned.
In confinement, asking him to help his aunt to unjustly accuse his daughter-in-law of adultery is nothing.
He couldn't do it, and he couldn't pretend to be deaf and dumb.
Aunt Liu's heart suddenly went cold when she saw him looking at her like this.
Chu Yan leisurely said: "I also agree with the handwriting."
