New widow

Why did Manager Wang kill the mason? Was it a sudden move or a long-standing grudge? This is something Su Du should ask, not Su Qiao's responsibility.

Su Qiao had already said to Su Du: "It seems that this lady really has a deep grudge against me."

"It's just a trivial matter, but it actually makes trouble." Su Du also sighed, and Mrs. Du kowtowed to Suqiao: "Ms. Kuang, you are people in the sky, we are the mud on this earth. If Mrs. Du wants to touch me, I will There is no other way. I just ask Madam Kuang to say a word to keep me safe."

"I promised you, of course I won't lie to you." Suqiao said the same thing, and Mrs. Du started to cry again: "Ms. Kuang, thank you, otherwise I would be very scared, very scared."

Suqiao didn't ask why she was afraid, and there was no need to ask. Suqiao just motioned to Mrs. Du to get up: "You will stay at my house for the next few days."

"What about the future?" Mrs. Du asked back, Suqiao smiled: "After this, I don't know whether there will be Mrs. Du or not."

Mrs. Du was so frightened that she almost fell to the ground. Su Qiao looked at her and said, "Why are you so frightened? There will be many more such things in the future."

"That's a person who has given birth to a son. Besides, Master Shangshu cannot live without her." Mrs. Du murmured, Suqiao's expression did not change. Is there anything in this world that cannot be separated from her?

"Some things cannot be done." Su Qiao only said this. Mrs. Du couldn't understand, but Mrs. Du knew that she was being protected by Su Qiao at this moment, so Mrs. Du knelt down to Su Qiao again: "Then , I would like to thank Madam Kuang first."

Suqiao said nothing more

Then, she just walked out of the study. At this time, the sun had set, and the sunset in the west was red. Suqiao looked at the red sunset and said softly: "I am always afraid of trouble. Who knew this trouble would always chase me."

"How can a person in this world not encounter trouble? Don't say that people like us, even if they are supreme, have a lot of troubles." Su Du's words made Su Qiao smile: "Yes, the three of Nanyang Marquis Mansion Master, you can’t just be a rich and idle person, but you have to study, you have to study well, and you have to be an official well after being admitted?”

Su Du smiled. As long as a person is still breathing in this world, he will have infinite troubles.

"Thank you, Mr. Su." Su Qiao came back to her senses and said these words to Su Du. It was a close friendship. Su Du looked at Su Qiao and said, "In this whole city, we are the only three who are acquaintances."

"So, from now on, we can be called friends?" Su Qiao asked Su Du. Su Du could only lower his eyes to prevent the look in his eyes from showing. If that look was revealed, he would be criticized. of.

"Yes, we are friends." After a long time, Su Du said this. Su Qiao smiled again, said nothing more, got in the car and left with the others. Su Du watched Su Qiao's carriage go away and felt his heart beating very fast. Su Du knew why his heart was beating so fast, but Su Du didn't dare to face it.

When everyone saw Su Qiao coming back with Mrs. Du, they knew that the matter had probably come to light, so they didn't ask any more questions. They still arranged to have dinner as usual. After dinner, everyone enjoyed the coolness in the yard for a while, and then dispersed. go.

When Xia Yun left

, looked at Suqiao, and felt that Suqiao looked particularly lonely under the moonlight. Xia Yun recalled what she had asked Su Qiao. Su Qiao seemed to be omnipotent, but no one knew what she was thinking, and no one dared to ask. Xia Yun was a little sad, but she didn't ask after all. Song Zhen originally wanted to reach out to pull Xia Yun, but when she saw Xia Yun looking at Su Qiao, Song Zhen couldn't help but sigh: "When will Aunt Kuang reveal her worries?" speak out?"

Xia Yun smiled at Song Zhen: "There will always be a chance."

"When we grow up." Song Zhen's words made Xia Yun smile. Xia Yun pinched Song Zhen's chin: "When we grow up, your life will be better than mine."

Song Zhen rubbed her face on Xia Yun's arm, and Xia Yun also smiled. What are you thinking about? In life, the most important thing is the present, as long as you live well in the present.

The next day, Su Qiao ordered Nanny Wu to deliver the 20 taels of silver to Mrs. Du. When Mrs. Du saw the 20 taels of silver, she wanted to reach out and touch it, but she didn't dare to.

Suqiao had already smiled at Mrs. Du and said, "You can only count your merits at the expense of your sins."

"What the lady said is true, but if little people like us don't obey, how will we live our lives?" Mrs. Du asked back, Suqiao also smiled, it is not easy for little people. Even to Mrs. Du, Su Qiao couldn't even say those few words "You don't have to say it. After all, the manager of Shangshu Mansion is also Mrs. Du's confidant. To Mrs. Du, such a person is a giant."

"That's all." Suqiao said lightly, and sweat started to appear on Mrs. Du's forehead again. Suqiao had already said to Mrs. Du: "I think your son will be able to plant the vegetable plot at your home. Wait for it here."

It's over, you can go back. "

"You said that there will be no Mrs. Du in the future. Is it true?" Mrs. Du asked cautiously. Although she was smiling on Su Qiao's face, the smile did not reach her eyes: "Of course it is true."

She was just a concubine who gave birth to a son. Wang Shangshu only treated Mrs. Du like this because she was useful. When Mrs. Du's existence threatened Wang Shangshu's reputation, Wang Shangshu would naturally not take Mrs. Du to heart anymore.

Thinking of this, Suqiao sighed softly. Poor Mrs. Du didn't understand this yet. By the time Mrs. Du discovered that everything she had was given by Wang Shangshu, and of course Wang Shangshu could take it back, it was too late. too late.

Su Du took what Mrs. Du said and went to report to the magistrate that he was going to Wang Shangshu's mansion to arrest the person. After hearing what Su Du said, the prefect's expression suddenly changed: "Do you know what you are talking about?"

"Of course I know." Su Du looked at the magistrate: "But if a steward of the Shangshu Mansion kills someone, he will naturally be dealt with according to the king's law, instead of being confused."

"You, you, you..." The prefect pointed at Su Du: "You are so brave."

"Thank you for the compliment, sir." Su Du's words really made the prefect not know what to say. He slapped the table: "Do you know what you are talking about?"

"Your Excellency has already asked you this once." After Su Du finished speaking, he looked at the prefect and smiled: "If your Excellency is not willing, then I can only issue the tickets from the Tongxuan Yamen."

"You are confused!" The prefect reached out and pushed the things off the table. Su Du's smile did not change: "Sir, what Master Shangshu told us is that in the Ministry of Justice, naturally..."

"Shut up." Magistrate

His face turned red: "Don't use these to pressure me."
