After Time Travel, I Married the Heroine and Her Brother - Chapter 98
With two “dangdang” sounds, one of the two half-cracked bowls was facing the sky, and the other was facing them. It was supposed to be a solid silver bowl, but the inner core of the section was actually black.
“Big sister… this, this is?” Ye Ting stepped forward to pick up the broken silver bowl, her eyes filled with disbelief. How can a good silver bowl be fake? What’s going on?
Ye Ping took half of the silver bowl and looked at it carefully. The black substance is very similar to lead. She guessed that besides lead, there must be other substances, such as mercury. Because none of Song Jinyuan’s three wives gave birth to a son and a half for him.
The aristocratic family loves to use silverware, there are countless silver bowls, cups, and chopsticks, all because silverware has the function of testing poison. Who would have thought that a silver bowl that can test poison would be a poison bowl.
What kind of family is the Song family, it’s just a silver bowl, and they will never use inferior ones to falsify in order to save money. Almost at the moment when the silver bowl broke, Song Jinyuan’s expression became extremely terrifying. He is the commander of the Jingwu Guard, and he is familiar with Wen Yu. He has handled too many bizarre and insidious cases, so he already has a bad premonition in his heart.
He raised another silver bowl with dragon pattern, handed it to Ye Ting, and motioned Ye Ting to throw it on the ground. Ye Ting threw the silver bowl to the ground with force, and the silver bowl was still intact after being rolled several times.
Obviously, this should be a real sterling silver bowl.
Ye Ping looked at Wen Yu, Wen Yu’s face was as cold as ice.
With his hands on his waist, he slowly pulled out the waist knife.
With a wave of the waist knife, a cold light flashed. After two more “Dangdang” sounds, the silver bowl was also split in half. Solid silver, as silver on the outside as on the inside.
If the two poisonous bowls are covered with silver, it can also explain that the person who cast the bowls had ulterior motives. But just because the phoenix bowl is poisonous, it shows that all this is clearly aimed at women.
That is Song Jinyuan’s wife.
This is the reason why Song Jinyuan lost three wives in a row in the previous life, and it is also the reason why he has been childless.
Just now he and Tingniang both said that the bowl was given by Mrs. Song.
Ye Ping met Mrs. Song, and she didn’t seem to be a villainous person. She couldn’t figure out why a grandmother would harm her granddaughter-in-law, and she was the only granddaughter-in-law.
At this moment, Song Jinyuan has been relieved.
He put away the four and a half silver bowls and looked at Wen Yu.
“I’m afraid I’ll have to trouble Cheng Tian to accompany me…go to the General’s Mansion for a while.”
Decided to question his close relatives, he was afraid that his heart would soften.
He has faced the most vicious and vicious people in the prosperous dynasty, and has tried countless cases that were unexpected by the transferors of the peak and circuit. He never thought that one day, he would face such a situation.
Wen Yu answered a good word. More than anyone else, he wanted to know what the truth he had been unable to find in his previous life, and who was the person who caused Jinyuan to marry three times and lose three times.
The silence in the room was suffocating.
The food on the table was still steaming, but what was cold was the hearts of the people.
Song Jinyuan looked at Ye Ting with difficulty, “Ting Niang, wait for me. I will definitely find out the truth and never let anyone who wants to harm you…”
Even if that person is his close relative.
“Husband.” Ye Ting was a little confused. Although she was innocent, she also knew that this matter was not easy. The silver bowl was given by my husband’s grandmother, could it be…
She didn’t dare to think about it, and her face was full of anxiety.
Song Jinyuan smiled, with shallow dimples, “Don’t think wildly, wait for me at home.”
His heart was so heavy that he couldn’t express it, the four and a half silver bowls weighed a thousand catties in his hands. He wrapped them up in a cloth, held them in his hand and went out the door.
Wen Yu glanced at Ye Ping, and Ye Ping nodded.
“You go, I’m here to accompany Ting Niang.”
“good.”
I saw the two of them going out the door one after the other, and then went out side by side at the gate.
Ye Ting looked out the door, her little face became paler.
Ye Ping ordered someone to help her go back to the house to rest, but she didn’t want to. Pulling Ye Ping’s clothes pitifully, her eyes were already flushed, and her eyes were full of anxiety.
She has always been too well protected by the Ye family, whether at home or in Qingzhou, the environment is extremely simple. She couldn’t understand why someone in the world would think of such a way to harm someone, and she was even more afraid of knowing who the harmer was.
“Sister, I don’t understand why…”
“All the hatred in this world is nothing more than the word jealousy.”
“I… I didn’t offend them, are they going to hurt me too?”
“The cause of this matter is not you, but how could the perpetrator care about this?”
“…Didn’t it be said that the husband is the life of the wife, isn’t it the life?”
“Fate is the most inexplicable thing, and I don’t know whether it is fate or man-made?”
Ye Ping muttered, suddenly remembering Jin Gongren’s words. People from Jingong said that Princess An and the eldest princess wanted to take revenge on Mrs. Wen, but they gave up after seeing Master Kongming, and said it was for Wen Yu.
Why?
At this time, her stomach made a “cuckling” sound, obviously protesting.
The food on the table was already cold, Ye Ting hurriedly sent people down to get some more food.
Ye Ping stopped, “Don’t bother, as long as these meals are hot.”
Ye Ting hesitated, she was really scared.
“There’s no need to be alarmed, the food will be fine.”
If it was an ordinary method, the person behind the scenes would have been exposed long ago in his previous life. She believed that Song Jinyuan’s fate would definitely change in this life, because she would never allow anything to happen to her younger sister.
Wen Yu has the notoriety of being a corpse ghost, he must have a way to get people to confess. No matter what the reason is, that person caused three innocent women to die in vain in his previous life, which is already unforgivable.
The servants reheated the food and brought it up again.
Ye Ting didn’t have an appetite in the first place, but after this happened, she couldn’t eat anymore. On the other hand, Ye Ping had no scruples and even ate two bowls of rice in a row.
Ye Ting admires her elder sister’s mentality even more. If it wasn’t for the elder sister, I am afraid that she would never find out what happened today. if it is like this…
When her face became paler, a piece of meat suddenly appeared in the bowl in front of her.
“It’s a big deal, think about it after eating.”
“Sister…”
“Have a meal.”
Ye Ting picked up the chopsticks obediently, and ate half a bowl of rice without much taste.
Ye Ping urged her to take a rest after dinner, maybe it was influenced by her elder sister, or maybe she was really tired. So she really obediently went to bed and fell asleep in no time.
She looked more and more delicate when she was asleep, her sickly pale face was so harmless and innocent against the brocade pillow and black hair. Obviously so fragile, but born with great strength.
Ye Ping looked at her sleeping face, her eyes changed from soft to firm.
When it was getting dark, Wen Yu and Song Jinyuan came back.
Song Jinyuan’s eyes were a little swollen, and it was obvious that he was so emotional that he shed tears. It can make him, who is known as the smiling devil, cry. It seems that his close relatives must be involved in the inside story of this matter.
“Tingniang is still sleeping.” Ye Ping said.
“Then…then I’ll go and see her.” He took two steps and turned around again. “Eldest sister… the matter has been investigated, I… can we not get along?”
This was the first time he called Ye Ping the eldest sister, and Ye Ping was almost taken aback.
She looked at Wen Yu, who nodded slightly.
“In that case, let’s not make peace for now.”
She said temporarily.
Because she wasn’t sure if there would be any side issues in the future.
Song Jinyuan thanked him and walked towards the inner room.
This thank you is not only a thank you to Ye Ping for agreeing to their quarrel, but also a thank you to Ye Ping for seeing through the secret of the silver bowl. He knew that if this aunt hadn’t discovered the clue, he might never have thought of it in his entire life.
…
On the way back to the Princess Mansion, Ye Ping already knew everything from Wen Yu.
Mrs. Song naturally wouldn’t admit it at the beginning, but Wen Yu’s methods were really terrifying, so she couldn’t help but not admit it. The silver bowl was indeed ordered by her. She said that her purpose was to prevent Ye Ting from having children.
As for the reason, it had to start with her and the old general.
She came from a famous family, and the Song family’s marriage was chosen by her parents for her, and she was also very fond of it. She and the old general are in love with each other, but there is only one thing that is not satisfactory: that is, she has not conceived for several years.
The Song family’s family style is clean and upright, and there is an ancestor’s precept not to take concubines. Even if she couldn’t bear children, the old general didn’t say anything. She felt so guilty, and in desperation, she came up with the idea of having a baby in a womb. The old general disagreed at first, but finally compromised. The borrower is her confidant girl, who has always been loyal to her. She decided to let that girl be the child’s nurse as soon as the child was born, which can be regarded as compensation.
She thought that she had calculated well, and it was impossible for her to make a mistake, but she didn’t figure out people’s hearts after all her calculations. People’s hearts are the most fickle, even for the most loyal girl.
The girl had a different heart, and was no longer satisfied with just being a wet nurse after the child was born. Or maybe it was the old general’s pity from time to time that made her feel confident, or she thought she was pregnant with the blood of the Song family and became ambitious.
Mrs. Song overheard her talking to the child in her belly, what about one mother, what do you want, what about our mother and child in the future, and what’s more about our family of three, the tone is clearly that she regards herself as the daughter of the general’s mansion Owner.
The wife of the aristocratic family has plenty of means to deal with servants who have different intentions.
From that moment on, Mrs. Song had the intention of leaving her mother and keeping her son.
After the girl gave birth to her child, she immediately sensed Mrs. Song’s intentions. She begged hard at first, saying that she would be fine even if she didn’t want to be a wet nurse, and she just begged Mrs. Song to spare her life.
Later, seeing that Mrs. Song was unmoved, she roared hoarsely, saying that she was the benefactor of the general’s mansion and Mrs. Song’s benefactor. Before she died, she struggled desperately and stared at Mrs. Song.
“So what if you are the wife of the General’s Mansion, my son will be the master of the General’s Mansion in the future, and the descendants of the entire General’s Mansion will be my descendants!”
These words later tortured Mrs. Song day and night, and became a thorn in her heart. Especially after the old general’s relationship with her husband became weak because of the girl’s death, the thorn in her heart became deeper and deeper.
Day after day, whenever she saw her growing son, she would always think of what the girl said before she died. In order to have her blood relatives in the Song family’s blood in the future, she chose her niece as her daughter-in-law.
However, some words are like curses, which have already penetrated into the flesh and blood. No matter how hard she tried to convince herself, the devil in her heart would not let her go. She wanted to do something several times after Mrs. Song became pregnant, but she controlled it in time because of her soft heart. This is also the reason why Mrs. Song was quite difficult during her pregnancy.
When Mrs. Song gave birth, she also moved her hands and feet, but she didn’t kill her because of her uneasy conscience. So Song Jinyuan was born, but Mrs. Song was injured and unable to raise her body.
Song Jinyuan’s marriage was not going well, and a large part of it was because of her. She is Song Jinyuan’s grandmother. It is only natural for a grandmother to choose a good grandson-in-law for her grandson, and no one will doubt her selfishness.
She can tolerate that girl’s son and grandson because she is still alive, she must have someone to rely on, and she is the old lady of the general’s mansion that everyone respects if she has children and grandchildren. But that girl’s words have become a demon in her heart, and she will never allow the other’s children and grandchildren to occupy the general’s mansion forever.
The matter of the silver bowl was something she had been pondering for many years, and she didn’t expect it to be exposed so soon.
When something like this happened, General Song was the most unacceptable, followed by Mrs. Song. They never imagined that Mrs. Song would be such a person, nor could they expect Mrs. Song to have such vicious thoughts.
“Perhaps her original purpose was to prevent Tingniang from having children, but once this kind of thing started, it would never end. Even if innocent people died in vain, she would not stop.”
So the three wives of Song Jinyuan in the previous life all died one by one, and she didn’t seem to have any plans to stop.
“I can’t understand this kind of person the most. She doesn’t want the Song family to be all descendants of that girl, so why would she kill innocent people even though she went to kill the descendants of that girl? That’s three lives , She actually watched like that! No matter what difficulties she has, it cannot be a reason for her to kill innocent people.”
Wen Yu sympathized with her, and said: “There are so many paranoid and crazy people, all of them have lost their minds, and they cannot be judged by common sense.”
“Indeed, if they reasoned about everything as usual, how could they have embarked on such a road of no return. The so-called fate, in the end, is actually the human heart, and the human heart is the biggest variable.”
People’s hearts are sometimes extremely narrow, and they can no longer tolerate anyone except themselves. So some people only see their own grievances and difficulties, but they cannot treat others with empathy.
…
Wen Yu sent Ye Ping to the princess mansion, and did not intend to go in with her.
Bright lanterns hung high, illuminating the road in front of the Princess Mansion. There are shadows of two people in the shadow of the lamp, sometimes relying on each other, sometimes cuddling each other, and finally separated slowly.
Ye Ping stood outside the door and watched him get into the carriage.
The carriage moved away from the light and disappeared into the darkness.
What a wonderful fate, to make them meet. If fate is the heart, then what is her heart? At this moment, she had an affirmative answer in her heart.
The child in the stomach seemed to be able to feel the mother’s mood, and kicked her very happily. There was a smile on the corner of her lips, and her hands unconsciously stroked her belly.
Suddenly she withdrew her smile and looked not far away.
In the darkness, a person came out slowly.
A pink dress, a dignified demeanor, delicate makeup on her face, and a little red between her brows.
It’s Wen Ruyu!
