166 The Truth
Su Xiaoxiao turned around and left.
“Where are you going?”
Wei Ting asked.
“I’ll look for her on the mountain!”
She was definitely not in the village, nor should she be with the Zheng family. The most impossible place had actually become the largest hiding place.
Wei Ting frowned and did not say anything.
After Su Xiaoxiao left, Yuchi Xiu flashed into the room like a ghost.
He had just arrived. He was not interested in the missing person from the Su family. What did it have to do with him? He only cared about Wei Ting and the three little ones.
“Sir! Guess who I saw in town just now?”
Wei Ting ignored him.
He said to himself, “I actually saw Xiao Zhonghua at Wutong Academy! No wonder Young Marquis Jing appeared in town. He’s escorting his cousin! Eh? Lord? Did you hear me? Xiao Zhonghua!”
Wei Ting’s expression was cold.
Yuchi Xiu looked at him strangely. “Sir, what’s wrong with you now? Why aren’t you surprised that I found out about Xiao Zhonghua? Could it be that you already knew? No, you don’t seem happy…”
“Get out,” Wei Ting said.
Yuchi Xiu walked out with his head down.
“I have a mission for you.”
Yuchi Xiu’s eyes lit up. So We Ting didn’t mean for him to scram, but for him to go out and carry out a mission.
Was he going to kill Xiao Zhonghua? Right, right?
He was cool, handsome, and arrogant. He was ranked second on the Assassin List. He should complete such a hellish mission!
Only then would he be worthy of his status!
Two breaths later, Yuchi Xiu walked out of the room with a look of despair.
… .
Old Su’s house, Su Jinniang had just taken off her coat and planned to rest.
Suddenly, the door was kicked open and Su Xiaoxiao rushed in.
“Fatty Su, you—ah—”
Before Su Jinniang could finish her sentence, Su Xiaoxiao grabbed her hair and threw her off the bed.
Su Jinniang saw stars.
Su Xiaoxiao didn’t waste her breath on her. She grabbed her neck and lifted her up against the cold wall!
“Su Jinniang! Tell me honestly, where did Yuniang go?”
Her tone was cold, like a Rakshasa from purgatory.
Su Jinniang clearly felt that Su Xiaoxiao was really murderous this time. The last time she taught her a lesson, it was at most a small punishment.
This person was really strange. When she schemed against her, she was not that angry. She only had a little connection with Su Yuniang’s disappearance, but she wanted to kill her.
Could it be that there were indeed people in the world who were not selfish?
She, Su Jinniang, did not believe it!
Fatty Su was after Su Yuniang’s money!
Su Xiaoxiao said coldly, “Su Jinniang, my patience is limited.”
Su Jin’s mother’s eyes flickered. “I… How would I know where my sister went? Didn’t she go missing in your house?”
Su Xiaoxiao unceremoniously threw the bag in her other hand to the ground.
“The person who went to my house was you, right?”
The bag and the items inside rolled on the ground. Su Jinniang looked at the mess on the ground and her expression changed.
“You don’t understand what I’m saying, do you? Your brain is so useless. Why don’t I dig it out for you to see if it’s filled with straw?”
With that, Su Xiaoxiao pressed Su Jinniang’s head on the table and casually took out the dagger that Wei Ting had given her. A cold aura spread to Su Jinniang’s neck.
When others threatened, they would feint twice, but Su Xiaoxiao went for the kill immediately!
At the critical moment, Su Jinniang used her survival instincts and tilted her head to the side.
The dagger stabbed into the table!
A small cut was made on her cheek by the blade, and warm blood flowed out.
Su Jinniang was so frightened that her mind went blank!
Su Xiaoxiao pulled out the dagger from the table!
Su Jinniang cried out, “I really don’t know… I’m not lying to you… I didn’t take her out… I just hid a bag at your house…”
Su Xiaoxiao’s dagger landed on the side of her head!
The cold blade reflected her disheveled appearance at this moment.
Su Xiaoxiao’s gaze was even colder than the dagger. “As expected, it was your Su family! What else do you know?”
Su Jinniang was so frightened that her eyes turned red. “Grandpa… He only asked me to change into Big Sister’s clothes and hide the bag… When I came back after hiding it… Big Sister was no longer around… I was telling the truth…”
Su Xiaoxiao thought about it and asked, “When you came back, was there anyone else not at home?”
...
Su Jin’s mother stammered, “B-Brother.”
Su Xiaoxiao held the dagger. “Only him?”
Su Jin’s mother’s eyebrows twitched. “Grandpa! Grandpa isn’t home either. He hasn’t come back until now.”
It seemed that Old Master Su and Su Dalang were together with Su Yuniang. On one side, the grandfather and granddaughter, Su Yuniang, were hiding. On the other side, Su Can and his son were acting out a scene of a thief shouting for the thief to be caught.
How disgusting.
Su Xiaoxiao picked up the dagger and patted Su Jinniang’s bloody face with the cold blade.
“Su Jinniang, if you hide anything from me today, I’ll cut off your tongue when I come back!”
Su Jinniang shivered!
… .
Su Xiaoxiao walked out of Old Su’s house and looked at the dark night sky. The dark night seemed to have substance as it pressed down on this poor village.
How would Old Master Su deal with Su Yuniang?
...
… .
In a narrow cage, Su Yuniang slowly woke up.
Her hands and feet were tied, and her mouth was gagged.
“Woo… Woo…”
She tried to make a sound and banged her head against the box, oblivious to the pain.
“Open the box.”
When Su Yuniang heard this familiar voice, her body froze.
The box was opened, and there was no light in the house. The snow outside the house that had yet to be melted reflected a little light.
When Su Yuniang saw the person in the room, her expression changed from shock to numbness.
Old Master Su, who was sitting on the chair, said, “Yuniang, I’ll give you one last chance. Are you going back to the Zheng family?”
Su Yuniang did not react.
Su Dalang was standing beside Old Master Su. He said anxiously, “Sister, quickly agree to Grandpa!”
Tears flashed in Su Yuniang’s eyes. She stubbornly held back her tears.
Old Master Su said in a deep voice, “Our Su family can’t afford to be disgraced. Either you return to the Zheng family, or I’ll send you away tonight. With your crimes, it’s not an exaggeration to drown you in a pig cage.”
Su Yuniang’s mouth was gagged and she could not speak, but her red and swollen eyes were filled with endless mockery.
Zheng Yuanbo had betrayed her. Zheng Yuanbo had brought a woman home. Yet she had to be the one being drowned in a pig cage.
Why?
Was it because she was the first person in the village to divorce her husband’s family?
In places like the capital and the provincial capital, people were relatively open-minded. A released woman’s reputation was better than that of a divorced woman.
It was different in the countryside.
A woman proposing a divorce with a man was committing serious treason!
If she lorded over a man, she would bring shame to the entire family!
