Lady of Rebirth

Chapter 114

When Su Zimo rushed to the Huaihe River, she didn't see Zhong Ming's figure, but a boat moored by the river gave her some clues. Two lanterns with Song characters swayed gently in the wind, and then she thought that there must be another It was Song Junjie who made a trick to harm Zhong Ming, so he went to the empty boat, and he didn't know what happened.

"Miss, what should I do? It seems that we are late." Qing'er asked.

No need for her to remind, Su Zimo naturally knew, pondered for a moment and said: "Go to Canglang Garden."

The same people go to the empty building, the lively garden in the past, without any lights, the dusk is deep, and it is extremely silent.

Su Zimo finally understood the meaning of Zhong Ming's words. Zhong Ming clearly planned to leave the capital. What happened to make her make this decision. The most important thing is where did Zhong Ming go at this moment?

Seeing her ugly face, Qing'er didn't dare to talk anymore, and quietly stood aside.

Su Zimo had made up her mind not to see the mother and son of the Song family again in this life, and now she could only go once for Zhong Ming. As she expected, Song Junjie and Ma Yue'e were not in the mansion.

"Do you know where it went?" Su Zimo asked unwillingly.

Although Su Zimo is no longer the young mistress of the Song family, the servants of the Song family still respect her in their hearts. When Su Zimo didn't know, he really didn't know the whereabouts of the mother and son of the Song family.

Su Zimo could also understand that if his mother and son were plotting something evil, how could people know about it? When she turned around in disappointment, a voice suddenly called her to stop her.

"Miss Su, please stay."

When Su Zimo turned around, it was Aunt Zheng. Aunt Zheng had promised her not to tell Song Junjie about her and Zhong Ming. In the end, she broke her promise. Su Zimo didn't blame her. Aunt Zheng had no friendship with them. She had no choice but to keep her mouth shut under the prestige, and it is understandable that she is planning for herself now. It is not surprising that she appeared here in the middle of the night. After all, after Su Zimo and Zhong Ming left the Song family, Aunt Zheng was Song Junjie's only famous woman. The status of the family has naturally been greatly improved, and any disturbance can be quickly heard by her ears.

Su Zimo nodded slightly.

Aunt Zheng invited: "It's cold outside, why not go in and have a cup of hot tea."

Su Zimo knew that she had something to say, so he didn't refuse, "It's annoying."

Su Zimo hadn't set foot in the Song Mansion for a long time, and now he revisited the old place, and he had some feelings, so he asked casually, "How are you doing recently?"

Aunt Zheng sighed from the side: "I thought that after you left, I would be able to occupy the nest, but I was still too naive. What kind of status am I? It's really hard to be elegant. If I knew this ending, why should I talk too much?" tongue."

Su Zimo knew that what she said was an informant, so he didn't take it to heart, and said lightly: "People don't do anything for themselves, not to mention that you didn't do anything against your conscience, you just told the truth. Speaking of which, I still owe you A favor, if you hadn't been pestering Song Junjie that day, let my father bump into him, and never forced me to commit myself to Song Junjie, I'm afraid my life would be hard."

Aunt Zheng smiled wryly, "In this way, Miss Biao is a life-saving grace to me. She spent money to redeem me from the brothel, but I will repay her kindness. If I guess correctly, Miss Su is here for Miss Biao Bar?"

Su Zimo's eyebrows twitched, and in a hurry, he blurted out, "Do you know where Ming'er has gone?" After asking, she realized that Aunt Zheng at most knew the whereabouts of Song's mother and son, but how could she know where Zhong Ming went.

Sure enough, Aunt Zheng said: "I don't know." Then she changed the topic, "But I know their plots. Miss Biao hasn't returned, I'm afraid something bad happened."

Su Zimo gasped, and said in a broken voice: "What?" He shook his head again and again, "No, definitely not." Zhong Ming was able to leave such words to her, he must have prepared, how could he be deceived knowingly about the trap, It's just that with Song Junjie's shamelessness and Boss Chen's insidiousness, Zhong Ming, a weak girl, might not be able to beat them, so he was in a panic, grabbed Aunt Zheng's hand and asked, "Tell me, what game did Song Junjie set up tonight? "

Aunt Zheng's wrist was in pain from being scratched. She had never seen Su Zimo lose his composure. In her opinion, Su Zimo had always been gentle and dignified. Apart from being at odds with Song Junjie, he was a perfect example of a good wife. Seeing the importance of Zhong Ming in her heart, it was precisely because of this that she wanted to make a deal with Su Zimo, and said unhurriedly: "If Miss Biao falls into the tiger's mouth, there should be time to rescue her now, and later I'm afraid the consequences are unpredictable, and besides the people in the game, only I know a thing or two about this matter."

Although Su Zimo was anxious, he knew that it would be useless to be anxious at this moment. Seeing Aunt Zheng's appearance, she obviously had something to say. After regaining her composure, she said, "Tell me about your conditions."

Aunt Zheng showed her approval, "Miss Su is really smart, and she can understand everything, so I won't play riddles with her anymore. To be honest, ever since I heard about your experience in Tianxiang Tower, I feel chills for the person next to me. If he can treat you like that, one day he will be able to treat me like this, not to mention that I don't have the family background and wealth like yours. When he gets tired of it one day, he will definitely abandon me like a shoe. The situation is still so bleak, so I You can’t help but plan for yourself.”

Su Zimo said lightly: "You can see through, your mind is clearer than others."

Aunt Zheng sighed leisurely: "It's a pity that I have no relatives and no reason, and I have such a background, even if I walk out of the gate of the Song Mansion today, I may not have any good places to go."

Hearing what she said, Su Zimo just wanted money and silver for self-defense, he pondered for a while, he didn't want to lie to her, and said: "I came out this trip in a hurry, I didn't bring much silver, and I had a quarrel with my father. I won’t be able to go home, I’m afraid I won’t be able to give you what you want.”

Unexpectedly, Aunt Zheng sneered and said, "Although money is good in this world, not everyone loves money like their life."

Neither loves money, so only... Su Zimo asked: "Could it be that you asked me to help find a good family again?"

"The meaning is almost the same, but it's not helping me find someone, but I want to follow you." Aunt Zheng looked at her straight.

Su Zimo was slightly stunned, obviously never thought that Aunt Zheng would have such a plan, she didn't look like she was joking, and asked in confusion, "Why did you follow us?"

Aunt Zheng said with emotion: "I can see it through. When I was in the brothel, I wanted to be a good man. Now that I have my wish, it's the same thing. There is even no difference in essence. It's just that it was used as a plaything by many men before." , now being treated as a plaything by a man."

Su Zimo was noncommittal. She only knew Song Junjie from left to right. He was a good scumbag, but he couldn't generalize. There are still good men in the world, but they just never met them. She didn't comfort Aunt Zheng. This feeling is also the feeling after going through the sea, after all, her life experience is more rough.

"Men around are unreliable. I just want to find a place that can shelter me from the wind and rain to spend my life peacefully, but I don't want to be helpless and precarious. Miss Biao has a lot of money, so she should be able to support me, an idler."

Su Zimo couldn't agree directly for a while, after all, it wasn't about her alone, so he had to discuss it with Zhong Ming.

Seeing her hesitation, Aunt Zheng said lightly, "If Ms. Su finds it embarrassing, then forget it, but don't mistake yourself because of me. Ms. Biao is not sure where she is suffering right now."

These words actually sounded threatening, Su Zimo had to be blackmailed by her, and Aunt Zheng wanted to live under the same roof with them, there was no harm, Aunt Zheng was on the left and right, she should feel the inconvenience, What's more, in the past few years, it's not difficult to get along with her. It's really not easy for her to wander around as a woman. It's because she trusts them that she has such a request. The most important thing now is to find Zhong Ming. Other things are easy to discuss, and said: "Okay ,I promise you."

Aunt Zheng knew that she had no choice, but she was relieved to get her promise. The worries about the future for the past few days were finally swept away. She was sincere in every word Su Zimo said. , and there is no such plan.

Aunt Zheng asked Su Zimo to wait for a while, then went back to the room and took a few things for Su Zimo.

Su Zimo understood at a glance that in addition to the evidence of the transaction between Song Junjie and Boss Chen, there were also some old accounts of Boss Chen.

Aunt Zheng said: "Go to the government, this is physical evidence, I am a personal witness, I can guarantee that Song Junjie will not be able to fly, and he will be able to take over Qunyuyuan."

Su Zimo took a deep look at her, "Actually, you also want to take revenge on Boss Chen?"

Aunt Zheng smiled sadly, "How do you think I was sold into the Qunyu Courtyard? I was a widow. After my parents died of illness, I was sold to the Qunyu Courtyard by my cruel aunt. I refused to do so. Well, that Boss Chen is really vicious, he beat me up and scolded me, I was often beaten all over my body, and I didn’t have a piece of good meat all over my body, so I had to submit to his power.” Aunt Zheng couldn’t help hugging her tightly when she thought of those inhuman days. arms, with fear and loathing on his face, he calmed down with difficulty, and said slowly, "Others think that we fireworks girls are humble and degrading, but how do they know that we are so pitiful? I don't know how many daughters of good people have ruined us." In Boss Chen's hands, it would not be an exaggeration to cut him into pieces." Aunt Zheng's face showed a ruthless look again, she really hated Boss Chen to the core.

While Su Zimo sympathized with her, he was puzzled and said, "Since you hate him so much, why didn't you hand over these things to the government earlier?"

Aunt Zheng showed contempt in her eyes, "Everyone praises you as a talented woman, you can't figure out the reason for this?"

Su Zimo was slightly stunned, then sighed, Boss Chen has been able to run the business for such a long time, he has managed the government thoughtfully, and Aunt Zheng is soft-spoken, who would believe her, even if the evidence is convincing, once it is handed in, it will only Nothing came to nothing, Aunt Zheng was waiting for an opportunity, if only Song Junjie treated her well, but Song Junjie and Boss Chen were like dogs, Aunt Zheng was disappointed, so she decided to give it a go, let her, the daughter of the Marquis, come forward, The government will not cover up the past casually, not to mention that Zhong Ming is in a dangerous situation, let alone sit idly by. This is why Aunt Zheng knew about Song Junjie's plan early in the morning, but she didn't tell them earlier and let them take precautions. When she came to the Song Mansion, Aunt Zheng would also look for her at dawn, but Su Zimo was a bit unacceptable for one point. There were too many variables in one night. Aunt Zheng watched Zhong Ming go into danger alone, completely disregarding Zhong Ming's life and death. Innocence, if something happened to Zhong Ming, it happened that the evidence was solid, so Song Junjie and Boss Chen had nowhere to hide.

It's just that now is not the time to pursue these matters, Su Zimo said: "It's not too late, let's go."

"Where are you going? Qunyuyuan or the government?" Aunt Zheng only has the evidence. She has no opinion on what to do next, so she naturally listens to Su Zimo.

Su Zimo said: "They set up this game, no matter whether it succeeds or not, it is impossible to bring Ming'er back to the Qunyu Courtyard, at least to avoid the limelight, the government will naturally go, but not now, when they open the Yamen The lottery, if the news gets out, this group of people is afraid to run away, the most important thing now is not to let the city gate open after dawn, as long as they don't leave the city, they can catch a turtle in the urn, at the foot of the emperor, the defense is so tight that it is difficult for them to fly."

Aunt Zheng understood, "Now go to the Hou Mansion to find your father?"

Su Zimo still shook her head, she knew that her father was upright, and would not ignore it because it was about Zhong Ming, but she didn't want her father to think that everything should be resolved by him, and then force her to compromise, saying: "There is someone who is more active than my father." It's more useful." He took Aunt Zheng to Sun's Mansion on West Street overnight.

Mrs. Sun understood their intentions after hearing Su Zimo's self-reported family name, but when she made an appointment with Zhong Ming, she agreed not to let anyone know about it except their husband and wife. I don't know if Zhong Ming told Su Zimo about this matter He only stated the facts: "Oh, my master is not at home. He asked someone to come back to bring a message, saying that there was a murder case by the Huaihe River, and he has to deal with things in the Yamen, so he won't be back tonight."

Su Zimo's heart skipped a beat: "Murder?" He asked nervously, "Madam, do you know the details?"

Mrs. Sun hesitated for a while before saying: "I, a woman, shouldn't be in charge of men's affairs. For Lord Su's sake, I'll tell Miss. I heard from people who said that a woman was pushed into the Huaihe River by a man. Drowning, my grandfather didn't care about it, because he happened to be passing by, so he got involved." After a pause, he said meaningfully, "I don't know if it's a vendetta, but I heard that the two are cousins."

Su Zimo was sure that these cousins ​​were Zhong Ming and Song Junjie, but in a panic, he ignored the loopholes in the whole matter. Tonight is the Mid-Autumn Festival, the day when the moon is full, and Sun Zuohai is not at home to accompany his wife. How could it happen that she encountered a murder case by the Huaihe River, but it was Sun Zuohai who had helped Zhong Ming find evidence of Song Junjie's crime, and it was precisely for this reason that she came to find Sun Zuohai.
