Chapter 345

The second master of the Pei family disappeared on a certain autumn day with heavy rain.

The people in the doorman had never seen him go out, but his figure was actually gone in the mansion. Something happened to Mr. Piansheng, and he was far away in Shuiyue Temple, so no one was willing to spend a lot of effort to find Mr. Pei.

Even Pei Qingying, the second master of the Pei family, just asked someone to search around the mansion and left his father missing behind.

Needless to say, everyone can guess the reason. He is already quite a bit old this year, in his early twenties and has a son. But as long as Master Pei is still alive for one day, he will inevitably be pressed by a big stone on his head.

If the father is here, the son will naturally not have any rebellious intentions towards him, no matter how filial and moral integrity are, he will hurt him. But if he is no longer there, as long as it is not what he does, what does it matter who does it? Therefore, he doesn't want to take the initiative to cause any trouble for himself.

My father is the eldest, can he still be like an ignorant child and ask him to go around as a son?

After all, even the people in the mansion did not regard the disappearance of Mr. Pei as a major event. Everyone can only be careful of Mr. Pei’s thoughts, so how could they have the idea of ​​hoping for him to be healthy?

No one had ever thought about whether there was anything unexpected happen to Mr. Pei.

until……

After the third wife received the gift, she thought about consolidating her status and majesty among the servants. But she was not strong enough, and it was extremely difficult to be able to achieve the same level as the second wife of the past. How could she easily do better than the second wife?

Fortunately, Mrs. Yong'an Hou was a real person who was indifferent. Except for the last time when she suddenly sent Mr. Pei and Mrs. Pei to her second wife, she ignored anything. Therefore, no matter whether the third wife's family was good or not, no one would look for her bad luck and give her a look.

As a result, the third lady's courage became much more courageous.

Her single name Qinglin was also at the age of being a relative. The third lady disliked her place not being spacious enough and was willing to make a scene for her son, so she started to think of the abandoned empty yard of the old man Pei family. Moreover, she was much smarter this time. She did not ask her mother-in-law, who was the wife of Yong'an, but went directly to ask her father-in-law Yong'an, who had just recovered his spirit and could say something.

The yard has been abandoned for decades and is in the mansion, and it is becoming increasingly unrestrained. A good place has been wasted. The Marquis of Yong'an also knew in his heart that the death was gone, and leaving the yard is just a sadness. He had already had the idea of ​​demolishing or repairing it, but the Marquis of Yong'an said that he would not say anything. So this delay took so long.

Such a disaster happened to him, and he became increasingly reluctant to be tied up by the past and lived. He directly agreed to the third lady's proposal and allowed her to sort out the place for Pei Qinglin.

The third lady agreed with a smile, turned around and sent a group of people in to pack up.

She also thought in her heart. Although there had been unlucky things in the house, she had not made any dirty things over the years, which means that the house was a "clean" place. As long as the main house that had happened before was vacated, it would be considered as snatching another place for the third room.

After getting free, she took her son over and took a look.

With just one glance, she saw the sealed well.

The weeds were growing on the edge, and it made people feel a little gloomy during the day. She frowned and thought for a while, and then someone directly moved the stone slab on top to see if there was still water inside. She had to think of a way to bury the well and razed the place to the ground.

There was no problem at first, but Brother Lin became interested on the way and followed the servant to see it.

Who would have thought that as soon as the stone slab was moved away, a strange stench hit her face. Her baby son suddenly made her fall down. Fortunately, the subordinates next to him were quick and could not cause a disaster.

The third lady walked over in panic and wanted to teach her son a lesson.

But before the reprimand could be expressed, she heard someone screaming in her ear: "There are dead people--"

It was blue and white, but when I heard this sentence, the third lady still felt a "buzzing" sound in her mind, and her back felt chills, and suddenly she couldn't even walk away.

"Okay... it seems to be the second master!" I don't know who it was, but suddenly shouted again.

The third lady immediately cheered up and no longer felt afraid. She held the hand of the maid beside her and walked over quickly. She covered her mouth and nose with a veil, held her breath and looked at the black wellhead. She suddenly saw the big swollen and white face half floating on the water...

"You ninth brother and sister-in-law, you didn't see it. Your face was so big, like a big steamed bun, it was really terrifying!" The third lady stared at Ye Kui tightly, saying in fear and contempt.

Ye Kui didn't expect that the third lady was actually a disrespectful person. When she heard her talk about Pei Er's death in a disgusting tone, she was confused. After a while, she finally couldn't bear it and interrupted the third lady and said, "San Sister-in-law, you haven't said it yet. What did you mean by saying this is strange?"

"You look smart on weekdays, why are you so unconscious?" The third lady curled her lips and said a little unhappy, then frowned, "When I brought people there, the inou was sealed with stone slabs! Even if the second brother lived enough and wanted to die, he wouldn't be able to seal the stone slabs on his own, right?"

Ye Kui nodded in cooperation and said, "This is reasonable. But my third sister-in-law, what is the use of you looking for me to do this? You should notify the rest of the rooms earlier."

The third lady looked so angry that she wanted to point her fingers to her face and said anxiously: "Are you really stupid or fake stupid? How can you tell them about this? Since there is still a stone slab on it, this means that someone must have attacked him that day! How many people can do those things in this mansion? Isn't it impossible for me to discuss it with you? No matter which one is the one who is going to do it, you are not the one who is going to do it. If I don't look for you, who will tell me?"

"Why do you think that I didn't do this?" Ye Kui didn't expect that she would exclude herself so easily. She couldn't help but become a little surprised and asked in confusion.

The third lady squinted her eyes and looked at her belly, sneered, "You don't have a man, what's the benefit of harming him for you? And, if you do this, can you still harm him?"

Seeing her serious look, Ye Kui couldn't help laughing. She finally held back and hurriedly lowered her eyes and whispered: "Sister-in-law is wise."

"Tell me, who did this matter seem to be done by me?" The third lady felt proud when she was still obedient, so she became proud and asked.

Ye Kui shook her head, "How can I know this? Third Sister-in-law, are you going to tell the Marquis about this?"

The third lady was stunned and said with a slight look on her eyes: "I have no idea at all. How can I say to the Marquis? Besides, the Marquis' body has just recovered and is still very weak. How can I stimulate him at this time?"

"Second sister-in-law, right? Should she send someone to send me some news?"

When the third lady heard this, she became annoyed, "I sent her messages to her, but it would not be of any use. She couldn't come back, so what did she do if she sent them!"

"By the way, my third sister-in-law, I don't know if I should mention something." Ye Kui frowned and deliberately said such words.

The third lady was indeed immediately brought over by her words and asked, "What's the matter?"

Ye Kui said, "The second brother disappeared the day when it rained heavily, but if I remember correctly, did the third brother have something wrong that day? I heard that the third brother is still sick now, and when I woke up, I asked the second brother, if it was right?"

"No, no!" The third lady denied it, but almost broke out in a cold sweat.

This is right, not at all.

She just wondered if it was the seventh and eighth brother who attacked the second child, but she just missed her timid and incompetent husband. She also didn't expect that the third brother would have the courage to attack the second child like this? If he had the courage, how could he be almost obedient to him over the years? But after thinking about it, something was wrong with this.

As the saying goes, a rabbit will bite people when it is anxious, let alone a living big man like the third child!

Besides, she did vaguely remember that it was raining heavily that day. The third brother seemed to say he wanted to meet someone, but she forgot to ask who he saw.

Later, when it was dark, the third brother was found back from the garden. He was wet all over and had a high fever and was confused. After finally waking up, his first sentence was to ask where the second brother was...

She didn't care at that time, but now that she even saw the second child's body, how could she still treat those words as confused words?

The thoughts were turned and a terrible thought suddenly appeared in the third lady's mind. She couldn't help but hold the Ropa in her hand tightly.

Ye Kui, who was standing beside her, looked at her face changing constantly, and knew in her heart that the words she had just said had already worked.

Sure enough, within a while, she heard the third lady's voice trembling and said to her: "Don't say anything about the ninth brother and sister just now. It's all a matter of shadowlessness. If you say too much, be careful to make people talk. The wind and rain that day, I couldn't see the road clearly. Maybe my second brother fell in accidentally. Let's not make any guesses at first." After that, before Ye Kui spoke, she said hurriedly, "The ninth brother and sister have just returned from the palace for a while. I guess they are very tired, so I'd better go back and rest quickly. This matter won't be bothered."

Ye Kui fell to the ground with relief and did not bother her, so she turned around and returned to Jingqueyuan.

When it was dark that day and lights were lit everywhere in the mansion, the news that Mr. Pei fell into the water and drowned had spread throughout the mansion.

Ye Kui looked at the flashing lights and couldn't help but laugh. Maybe Master Pei San himself was confused and thought that he really killed Master Pei Er when he fought back?
