Chapter 128 Our Reconciliation
She had felt weird before.
As the saying goes, once bitten by a snake, it will last ten years.
Bao Chunpo was abducted and raped not long ago because he ran away in anger. How could he rush out alone for the second time because he was choked by Zhou Xuan?
This is not human nature.
"When I asked you questions, you didn't dare to look at me. Your eyes were erratic, and you reached out to touch the tip of your nose. You kept making small movements. You feel guilty, right? You were afraid that you would get into trouble for making a false confession and affect your son Shen Jianshen. career.”
Mrs. Shen's expression changed drastically, but she calmed down when she heard Zhou Zhao said that it would affect her official career.
She took out the handkerchief and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, "This was Chunqi's idea! I didn't mean it. Your sister is not a good wife. I asked my son to divorce his wife, but he didn't allow it; I asked him to divorce his wife. My son is not allowed to take concubines; what can I do?”
Unbeknownst to Mrs. Shen, Shen Jianshen in front of the door had froze on the spot. Zhou Xuan's eyes were filled with disbelief. Her fists were clenched so tightly that her nails dug into her flesh.
"I'm not lying and giving a false confession. This matter has nothing to do with my son's acquaintance. He doesn't know anything about it. I am his biological mother. How can I not know that he wants to have his own heir? It's just that because of Zhou Xuan, he can only pretend I'm not happy. If nothing happens this spring, it will be..."
Zhou Zhao took a deep breath.
Now she is in Tingwei Temple, she is Master Xiao Zhou, and she is investigating the case! It is not suitable to beat witnesses in broad daylight.
"Since it's almost done, why did Bao Chunpo go out in anger again? Is he trying to deceive people again?"
Perhaps Zhou Zhao's gaze was too frightening, and Mrs. Shen couldn't help but burp. She covered her mouth and looked at the little girl sitting opposite. She was wearing an official robe and seemed to be doing things impartially. , but she always felt that as soon as she went out, this person would come to the door and kill her like a fish.
"Hiccup... No, I'm not trying to lie. It's true this time."
Zhou Zhao looked at Mrs. Shen steadily, "Did Zhou Xuan quarrel with Bao Chunpo and Bao Chunpo ran out? About what time did she go out alone?"
Mrs. Shen moved her lips and finally shook her head. She said with some embarrassment, "It has nothing to do with Zhou Xuan. It was when it was getting dark. Chun Xi was playing on the swing in the garden. He heard a salesman passing by outside the door, and he was curious for a moment. When she left the house, she didn't have any money with her, so she asked her maid Yinhuan to get it...
When Yinhuan came to get the money bag, he found that Chunxi and the salesman were gone..."
Zhou Zhao's eyes moved, "Did that maid Yinhuan see the appearance of a salesman?"
Mrs. Shen shook her head, "I asked her about it too. When she heard the salesman's voice, she asked her to get the money. She didn't even meet the salesman."
After Zhou Zhao asked, he glanced at Min Zangzhi, saw him nodding, stood up, opened the door and walked out.
She didn't even look at Shen Jianshen. She walked forward and hugged Zhou Xuan gently, "Sister, you heard me. It was not your fault from the beginning to the end. The second sister is getting married far away. She This person is weak-tempered..."
When Zhou Zhao said this, he couldn't help feeling cold. How could Zhou Wan be weak? Her hundred hearts and eyes spin together, even the tigers on the mountain can be stunned by her!
"Don't dare to speak loudly. Auntie doesn't care about anything. Now it's time for my eldest sister to give her a warning."
Zhou Xuan's dazed eyes regained some clarity, and she patted Zhou Zhao's back gently, "Well, you're right, it's not my fault."
She stood up straight and was about to leave. Seeing this, Shen Jian grabbed Zhou Xuan's wrist.
"Axuan, it's my mother's fault. I didn't ask for Chunbao. We can adopt an heir... We..."
Zhou Xuan looked deeply at Shen Jianshen, and she took a deep breath, "Let's make peace."
Shen Jian's deep pupils shrank suddenly, and his eyes turned red instantly. There was a hint of pleading in his voice, "Axuan..."
Zhou Xuan looked at Shen Jianshen with a bit of nostalgia in his eyes, "Do you still remember why we got married? Because you have a soft temper and are afraid of being worried about the boss and making decisions, so you are depressed all day long; while I have a hard temper, like to take charge of things and like to be arbitrary. The eldest daughter doesn’t worry about trivial matters. We are very comfortable together.”
"Jianshen, look at me, then look at you..."
Shen Jian looked deeply at Zhou Xuan in front of him. She was much slimmer than before, and her old clothes from last year were so big that they seemed to float up.
She looked very bad, and even without looking in the mirror, he knew that he was also very bad now.
"So let's make peace. You can marry a new wife and have your own heirs. Your mother-in-law doesn't have to be so old and rack her brains for you and lose her dignity as a wife; and I... can do it. Back to Zhou Xuan. "I'm Zhou Xuan!"
Shen Jianshen's heart trembled, she was Zhou Xuan! The first time I saw her, she was riding on a horse, whipping up her whip, and smiling brighter than the sun.
"I promise..."
Zhou Xuan shook his head and interrupted Shen Jianshen's words.
Their eyes met, and both of them fell silent.
Zhou Xuan squeezed a smile from his face, said nothing, turned around and strode toward the door.
Zhou Zhao gave Su Changying a look and asked him to arrange for the Beijun army to investigate the case, and trotted after him.
She didn't look at Zhou Xuan or speak, but tears fell from time to time and landed on the back of Zhou Zhao's hand.
Zhou Xuan wiped it with his sleeve casually, "I can't cry in Tingwei Temple. If your colleagues see it, you will be embarrassed."
"Sister, don't worry, my master has already disgraced us disciples for the next eighty years."
Please...you...Collect_6Ⅰ9ⅠBookⅠ(Six\\\Nine\\\Book\\\!)
Zhou Xuan pinched Zhou Zhao's ears angrily, "How old are you? If you open your mouth and talk nonsense, that's your master. If he doesn't bully you, you have to respect him."
"What if he bullies me?"
"If you dare to bully my sister, Zhou Xuan, beat him up!"
Zhou Zhao paused, turned around and walked back. Before his feet landed, Zhou Xuan grabbed him by the collar, "You don't need to beat up Shen Jianshen and his mother-in-law. If you want to, I will beat him myself." You helped me figure out the truth. For me, it really lifted a big rock that was weighing on me.”
Zhou Zhao turned around and hugged Zhou Xuan's arm.
"It's great that I haven't changed beyond recognition and neither has he."
Without spring, there will be summer... As long as Shen Jianshen has no heirs, there will be endless battles in the future... There are only two endings for her, be disciplined to be like others, or be completely ruined with blood on her hands Madness.
She, Zhou Xuan, didn't kill people all over her family, so she shouldn't live such a life.
It should be said that no one should live such a life.
She shouldn't, and neither should Shen Jianshen.
Seeing that she had figured it out, Zhou Zhao didn't say anything more and accompanied Zhou Xuan step by step towards the Zhou family's house.
The sisters have walked this road many times.
"Sister, do you still remember this alley? In the past, you often took us here to catch dragonflies. When it rained, this alley would be full of darkness... Once the second sister cried and said A dragonfly flew into her mouth..."
She kept every embarrassing incident in Zhou Wan's childhood in mind and often used it to laugh at her. The same goes for Sunday night.
Zhou Xuan couldn't help laughing when he thought of old memories from his childhood, "I still remember that time when you and Chang Ying sneaked out to pick persimmons at noon. He was still young at the time, and he couldn't get down after he went up."
"Poor Changying wanted to call you to call the adults, but you fell asleep leaning against the tree and couldn't wake up. But he had no choice but to pick persimmons and hit you. When I found you, you were fast asleep and surrounded by people. A circle of persimmons with long tassels riding on the tree makes me cry..."
The two of them arrived at the door while talking.
Zhou Xuan turned around and looked at Zhou Zhao, "Sister, I'm fine. Don't worry. You go back to Tingwei Temple quickly. It's business to catch the murderer as soon as possible."
Zhou Zhao gave a soft "hmm" and watched Zhou Xuan enter the house, then turned and walked towards Tingwei Temple.
Passing by the persimmon tree, she looked up and saw that the persimmons on it were still green. She looked at it for a while and shook her head, then walked towards the Tingwei Temple. When she got to the door, Su Changying was already waiting there. .
