Rebirth of marriage

Chapter 172 The Rootless Man

"You didn't save her." Xie Jiu's eyes were filled with frost when he heard this, "You used the recipe that the monk gave you to collude with Mr. Cao and let Wang Shuyan suppress Yanyan in exchange for your position as the prefect. "

Magistrate Yu looked ugly. He didn't expect that Xie Jiu would find all the prescriptions he had hidden in the mezzanine, and she would guess everything.

But he still refused to promise that he had betrayed Yanyan. He argued, "He is the fourth master of the Cao family. The Cao family covers the sky with only one hand. How can I save people from him?

And Wang Shuyan is the leader of that body. She is greedy for vanity and wants to marry Mr. Cao. She is strong-willed, and Yanyan rarely comes out later, and even if she does, it is useless.

That man abandoned her, and she didn't even know his real name or identity, so he just ran away. Where to find him in the vast sea of ​​people? "

"This is not the reason why you helped Cao kill her." Xie Jiu looked at him coldly, "Maybe she was pregnant at that time."

In Xie Jiu's view, Yanyan and Wang Shuyan lived in that body respectively. Their method of suppressing Yanyan was equivalent to killing her.

Magistrate Yu was a little confused, "What kind of pregnancy?"

Then his eyes widened, "You mean, Yanyan is really pregnant with that man's child?"

"Yanyan actually has that man's child. Then Mr. Cao..." He shook his head desperately, a little incoherently, "No, it's impossible. Mr. Cao doesn't want any woman, how can he like a pregnant woman? Woman, it is impossible for the Cao family to allow him to marry such a woman.

Lying, Yanyan is lying. She wants to use her pregnancy to win my sympathy so that I can help her find the heartless man. She is so pure, how can she do inappropriate things with men?

She must have lied to me. She is not pregnant, and I have not betrayed my trust. I have not..."

His sudden madness made Xie Jiu disgusted and angry.

Magistrate Yu liked Yanyan, but Yanyan had a loved one and was pregnant, which he couldn't accept. He knew he couldn't get Yanyan, so he simply traded her for his future.

Xie Jiu kicked him hard in the abdomen, "Don't pretend to be crazy. There must be a process from when the man left to when Wang Shuyan was with the person named Cao. Yanyan's pregnancy must have been obvious. You have seen her, how could you do it?" I don’t see that you are deceiving yourself.”

Her words made Yu Zhifu unable to pretend any longer, he lowered his head and covered his abdomen without saying anything.

Xie Jiu kicked him again, "Did Yanyan ask you to help find that man? Do you have a token?"

Yanyan regards Magistrate Yu as a friend, and she must have someone to entrust her with in times of crisis.

Magistrate Yu huddled on the ground, only groaning.

After a long time, he suddenly asked, "Are you that child? Is that why you stole my account book and wanted to kill me to avenge Yanyan?"

Xie Jiu slowly knelt down and stared at him, "What is the token? Is there anything else to explain?"

She was not sure that she must be Yanyan's child, but her intuition told her to find that man.

Magistrate Yu stared at Xie Jiu, wanting to see something under the mask, and waiting for Xie Jiu to give him an answer.

Seeing that he was silent, Xie Jiu glanced at Lou Qi.

Lou Qi was confused before, but Xie Jiu didn't tell him to leave, so he stayed. After hearing this, he vaguely understood.

The knife in his hand caused another wound on Magistrate Yu's body, "Just say whatever I ask, otherwise I will see how much flesh you and your wife and children have for me to cut."

He secretly decided in his heart that he must protect his and Jiaojiao's children in the future, and don't let them be like him and Xie Jiu, who didn't even know where their biological father and mother were.

Thinking like this, he felt an inexplicable anger in his heart, and he stabbed Yu Zhifu again.

Xie Jiu watched quietly and waited.

"You are not Yanyan's child. Yanyan is so kind, how could she give birth to a daughter like you, a bandit." Magistrate Yu found a way for himself, "She gave me a jade pendant and said that the man went to Liaodong. .

But why should I go all the way to Liaodong to find a man for her who has abandoned her? What is the use of finding such a heartless man? "

Gu Xiao, who had been silent all this time, suddenly stepped on his kneecap and said, "If you don't want to, then you don't have to agree to Yanyan. Don't make excuses for your betrayal.

Tell me how to reawaken Yanyan, and I will spare your life. Otherwise, no one in your Yu family will survive. "

Magistrate Yu was afraid of death, but he really didn't know what else to do.

When pressed, Gu Xiao asked Lou Qi to take Xie Jiu out first.

He stayed in the room for a while before coming out. He thanked the wine and walked out, "Go back."

Xie Jiu hummed slightly, smelling a trace of blood on him.

She knew that Gu Xiao had tortured Yu Zhifu.

The reason why they came here tonight required Magistrate Yu to keep his mouth shut and let him return to the capital to testify truthfully against his accomplices. Gu Xiao also had his explanation. Also, he probably wanted to have a final trial to see if he could ask questions about waking up Yan Yan. Yan's method.

But he didn't say anything. Xie Jiu knew that Magistrate Yu really didn't know, or there was simply no way to wake him up in this world.

Xie Jiu couldn't tell how she felt. If Yanyan were her mother, she would feel uncomfortable, but there was no evidence to prove that she was her mother. She didn't seem qualified to feel sorry for her even if she wanted to.

For the first time, she felt that she was a rootless person and had no face of her own.

Gu Xiao's hand was held tightly, and he bent down to hold her in his arms, silently all the way.

When they arrived at their destination, after the two of them had washed up, Gu Xiao talked about Fourth Master Cao, "The first three of the four brothers of the Cao family are married to noble ladies, but only the fourth Cao's wife is from a reclusive family. daughter.

It is said that she disfigured her appearance to save Cao Laosi, so she rarely came out to see people. Cao Laosi did not have a concubine. "

It turned out that she hid in Cao's backyard for this reason.

Xie Jiu was puzzled. Since she was the matchmaker of Fourth Master Cao, why would she rather be declared dead by her family than contact them?

"Does she have children?"

This is no secret, Gu Xiao said truthfully, "A son and a daughter."

Xie Jiu hummed lightly and said nothing more.

Her mind was a little dizzy and her whole body was very tired. She fell asleep in Gu Xiao's arms.

When he woke up, Gu Xiao was sitting beside the bed with bruises under his eyes.

Xie Jiu rubbed his forehead, "I had a fever last night."

When she came back from Yufu, she felt heavy all over. When she was dizzy with fever, she knew that there were hands on her forehead, wiping her eyes, and medicine was fed into her mouth. It was so painful that she wanted to vomit, but she didn't seem to have any pain. strength.

Gu Xiao touched her forehead again, "Are you feeling better?"

"Well, much better."

She struggled to get up, "My bones are sore and I want to sit down for a while."

Gu Xiao hurriedly helped her stand up and put a soft pillow on her waist, "Mo Li and the others have cooked porridge. I'll get some for you to drink."

Xie Jiu nodded.

As soon as Gu Xiao went out, Lou Qi came in again. He pulled up a stool and sat in front of the wine bed, saying, "Just find a reason to vent your discomfort, why bother suppressing your illness."

Thank you for drinking and want to open your mouth.

But seeing Lou Qi's look of seeing through everything, she pursed her lips.

Yesterday, an indescribable heaviness suddenly surged into her heart, which made her breathless. She didn't know if this illness was related to that emotion.

But, soon, Lou Qi gave her the answer, "You sobbed for a long time last night and called me mother a lot. You couldn't wake up no matter how you screamed. You were so anxious that he almost cried with you."

He glanced at Xie Jiu and said, "I heard that your adoptive parents are very good to you. In fact, I understand you somewhat. No matter how good your adoptive parents are, you still want to know where your roots are and why you left them.

But I'm afraid that the truth is something I don't want to bear, so I didn't tell you the truth yesterday. You are stronger than me. If you want to continue investigating in the future, I will help you. "

After a pause, he said meaningfully, "However, I think you may have something more troublesome right now. I just saw Li Qiye biting your man's ear."

Biting his ears meant that it was something Xie Jiu couldn't know about. It couldn't be a trivial matter, and it might be related to Xie Jiu.

He asked, "Would you like me to help you find out?"
