Su Jinhuan was too lazy to watch the drama between the two of them as a loving father and a filial daughter, so she pulled up a chair and sat down.
"Man'er, I came here today to be alone with you."
Su Man's heart tightened, and she immediately understood who Su Jinhuan wanted.
Her personal maid Zhizhi.
"Father, I...I feel a little uncomfortable..." Su Man swayed and spoke softly.
Marquis Ling'an felt sorry for her, so he asked his maid to help her go back to rest.
"Wait a minute!" How could Su Jinhuan let her leave so easily.
A month ago, Su Man's meal was poisoned, and the poison was found in Zhizhi's house, so Su Man took Zhizhi away naturally.
At that time, Zhizhi often told her that Su Man had bad intentions, but Su Jinhuan was so immersed in Huo Lingxu's sweet words that she couldn't listen at all. She thought she was alarmist, so she simply let it go.
In the last life, when Su Jinhuan saw Zhizhi again, there was only a corpse left.
Poor Zhizhi, she is only thirteen years old.
This time, it was her turn to protect Zhizhi.
She will never let down anyone who treats her well.
"My maid Zhizhi is here with you! Sister, please return her to me!"
"Sister...she committed a crime a few days ago. I scolded her a few times and sent her away. I don't want someone like her to be around my sister and harm her again."
Anyone who looks at her red eyes will feel unbearable.
"Zhizhi did nothing wrong! I want you to return her to me now!"
"What are you talking about! Man'er is doing it for your own good, but you are still messing around here! How can you be a sister!" Marquis Ling'an scolded her sternly.
Su Jinhuan glanced at Marquis Ling'an, with a sneer on his lips.
Good father!
"Father, when mother was alive, you were always on my side."
Speaking of her mother, Marquis Ling'an's expression became visibly relaxed.
He is not without feelings for Su Jinhuan's mother, he even loves her deeply.
Seeing Marquis Ling'an's expression of hesitation, Su Man's eyes darkened, her knees softened, and she knelt down.
"Father!" Su Man cried and said. I felt pity for her, as if she had endured a huge grievance: "Now that things have happened, I can no longer hide it for my sister. In fact, Zhizhi poisoned my food. Because of the poison, I almost... couldn't see my father. In order not to make my sister sad, I just sent her away. I don't want such people to continue to harm my sister!"
Hearing this, Marquis Ling'an's face darkened instantly.
"What? Poison? Why do you want to hide this kind of thing, Man'er?"
Su Man lowered her eyes, her eyes were red, and she sobbed a few times, her body trembling slightly: "Father, don't be angry, this is all my own decision, I don't blame my sister. Besides, this is Zhizhi's problem, and it has nothing to do with my sister. It doesn’t matter.”
"How dare your sister hide such a big thing from me! Su Jinhuan, do you still think of me as your father?"
He glared at Su Jinhuan with blazing fire in his eyes, and at the same time there was a hint of suspicion: "Poisoning the master is a capital crime! Where did a servant girl get the poison and courage! Su Jinhuan, was it you who instigated it?"
The corners of Su Man's mouth curled up secretly, waiting for a good show.
Su Jinhuan looked at Marquis Ling'an with disappointment, her heart hurting.
"Zhizhi was not sent out at all." Su Jinhuan's eyes were cold and her tone was firm.
Su Man was startled.
"Sister, what are you talking about? I personally sent her away and gave her a sum of money!"
"She's in the backyard now! Do you want me to go there and ask for her in person, or do you want to bring her back to me intact! Don't say I didn't give you a chance! It's still too late to turn back now!"
Su Jinhuan's eyes were filled with intense glare, which made Su Man frightened and her scalp numb.
How did this idiot know that Zhizhi was in the backyard?
She clearly ordered Mother Fang to trap her there and not let anyone see her.
Su Jinhuan had no chance of seeing her.
This woman is definitely bluffing, and she is deliberately provoking!
Hehe, he had the nerve to pull this little trick in front of her, Su Man. Su Jinhuan was still the same as before, disgustingly stupid.
After a moment of composure, Su Man cried and said, "I don't know what my sister is talking about. I sent her away a long time ago."
Su Jinhuan narrowed her eyes and a cold smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.
"Why are you so aggressive? You don't even believe your sister's words?" Marquis Ling'an helped Su Man up: "Man'er, you go to rest first. I will handle this matter and I will give you an explanation."
"Father, don't be angry. Don't get angry with your sister. I...I feel very sorry."
"Good boy, I will feel sorry for you even more when I know you are sensible. You don't have to worry about this matter."
Marquis Ling'an patted Su Man's shoulder gently, his eyes filled with tenderness and love for his daughter.
Su Jinhuan stepped forward and took Su Man's arm: "Father, don't worry, how about we go to the backyard and take a look!"
"Your sister is not feeling well!"
"She injured her hand, not her leg!"
"you!"
"Is it possible that my sister is afraid of seeing something? Or are you feeling guilty? You don't dare to go with me!"
Su Man's heart suddenly shook.
Her palms were sweating, and the sweat flowed onto the wound, which was painful.
"How could it be? Sister said so, so let's go to the backyard and take a look."
At the same time, she secretly glanced at Chang Yan.
Chang Yan hurriedly ran to the backyard while a few people were not paying attention.
A quarter of an hour later, the three came to the backyard.
The most remote place in the backyard is the toilet.
Zhizhi was abused by Fang's mother here in her previous life and was brutally disfigured. She was responsible for cleaning the toilets all day long. Later, she was met by Fang's mother's drunken husband, who defiled her.
So Zhizhi committed suicide.
When Su Jinhuan thought of this, her heart felt as if she was suffocating.
Seeing a few people coming, Fang's mother was already ready. She came up to greet them and bowed: "Master Hou, two young ladies, this place is not clean and smells bad. You should stay at the door. Don't come in. Save yourself the trouble." Dirty."
"Is Zhizhi here?" Marquis Ling'an asked.
Mother Fang smiled and said: "Zhizhi? Hasn't she been sent away long ago? If the Marquis doesn't believe it, you can come in and check it out."
Marquis Ling'an strode into the courtyard. There were only a few slaves busy in the courtyard. They were all men. No maids were seen.
"Sister, I told you a long time ago that Zhizhi is really not here." Su Man said.
Seeing Ling Anhou's face darken, he was on the verge of getting angry.
Su Jinhuan rushed into the courtyard and glanced around.
It is completely impossible to send Zhizhi away in such a short period of time.
Zhizhi must still be here.
Before she could continue searching, Marquis Ling'an pulled her out of the door: "Stop messing around! I've already looked for Zhizhi, and there's no Zhizhi here! Su Jinhuan, can you save your worries! Like Man'er did, Be smart! Don't always look for trouble!"
"Sister, you don't have to believe me, but you have to believe my father." Su Man said.
Su Jinhuan glanced at her coldly, shook off Ling Anhou's hand, and rushed in again regardless.
There is also a woodshed on the right.
With a sharp look in her eyes, she ran towards the woodshed.
Mother Fang's face suddenly turned pale, and she hurriedly stopped her: "Miss, this is just a utility room, it's very dirty."
She grabbed Su Jinhuan's arm and refused to let her go.
Su Jinhuan kicked her to the ground, her cold eyes were like the devil from hell: "If you dare to say another word, I will gouge your eyes out!"
Mother Fang was stunned and looked horrified.
Su Jinhuan turned around and kicked open the door of the woodshed again. The scene inside made her eyes widen in an instant.
