Chapter 127 The bad guy complains first
"Grandma, someone said that they saw Aying and Heni in the thatched cottage in the back mountain. Let's go look for them!" Xie Chengfeng almost ran into the room where the old lady was resting temporarily.
It didn't matter. The old lady leaned on her crutches and was in a panic. She shouted urgently, "Quick! Go find it!"
Nanny Su looked at the snow outside and quickly comforted her, "Madam, the second young lady is alert and intelligent, and Miss Ying is always steady, so she should be fine. Besides, Prince Wang has also sent people to look for her. The roads are slippery in the snow, and if anything goes wrong, what will happen?"
To be honest, it's not that Nanny Su is unconcerned or anxious, but she just can't feel at ease about the Third Young Master.
The whole night passed without any news from the two women. The old lady could not wait any longer and said, "I'm fine, let's go!"
Xie Chengfeng's eyes moved, and he quickly helped her up, "Slow down!"
The old lady looked ahead eagerly, wishing she could see Aying and Heni in the next second.
From afar, I saw some people gathered around the thatched house, whispering to each other.
Xie Chengfeng pretended to be ignorant and said, "What happened in front? There are so many people gathered there?"
At the same time, Nanny Su supported the old lady, "Old lady, don't worry."
"How can there be such a person in such a desolate place?"
"Tsk tsk, I heard that the cousin and prince of the Marquis' Mansion are inside..."
"This is too bold..."
Seeing the ambiguous looks and slightly contemptuous tone of voice from others, the old lady felt panicked.
"Go away! What are you all doing here?" Xie Chengfeng shouted.
One of the monks who was sweeping the floor could not help but approach and dissuaded her with an indescribable look, "Old lady, you'd better not go in."
"What are you talking about?" The old lady looked serious.
The man quietly walked up and said, "This morning, someone heard a man and a woman in here..." The monk seemed to have his ears and eyes polluted, and he quickly closed his eyes and said, "Amitabha, this is a pure place for Buddhism, what a sin..."
Suddenly, Xie Chengfeng was shocked and asked, "Are you saying that there are men and women having an affair?"
The monk lowered his brows quickly, "Monks don't tell lies."
Xie Chengfeng turned to look at the old lady, "Grandma, Ah Ying is in there, and Wang Changyue hasn't come back yet, will it be..."
The old lady's face froze immediately, and then she said angrily: "Nonsense!"
"It's not me who said that. It's someone else who said that." Xie Chengfeng curled his lips.
The old lady said sternly, "Everyone disperse!"
Xie Chengfeng quickly echoed and shouted to the other people around him: "Didn't you hear what was said? Get out of here!"
At this point, the people who were surrounding them looked at each other and left.
Nanny Su's expression remained stern. "Madam, Young Master Wang has always been honest and loyal, and Miss Ying also knows the big picture. Don't listen to the slander."
The old lady looked at the tightly closed door and said sternly, "Open it!"
Then, the servant behind him pulled the door knocker tightly and pulled it hard.
"Squeak-"
"It's open, it's open, the door is open!" Xie Chengfeng was very anxious.
With the support of Xie Chengfeng and Nanny Su, the old lady gradually approached the thatched house.
As soon as he stepped in, Xie Chengfeng was dumbfounded.
What I saw was Huo Aying and Su Jian, covered in blood, cuddling each other.
There was no one around.
Instantly, the old lady's eyes turned red and she shouted, "Who spread rumors about Ah Ying? Ma San'er, tie those people back to me!"
Ma San received the order and hurried over with his men. Xie Chengfeng was stunned, "Grandma, I was just talking nonsense, why do you have to be so serious and aggressive?"
"Talking nonsense? Being serious? A woman's innocence is more important than anything else! How can we let them make up stories?" The old lady scolded immediately.
Madam Su hurried over and called out distressedly, "Miss Aying, Miss?"
Ah Ying's eyes turned dark and she opened them solemnly.
The next moment, he saw his grandmother, turned his head to look at Aunt Su, and laughed faintly: "I'm dreaming again..."
Nanny Su called out quickly, "Young lady, young lady, don't dare to sleep. You are not dreaming. The old lady is here to look for you!"
The old lady walked over tremblingly, looking at A Ying, who was covered in blood, and Su Jian, who was covering her eyes, and tremblingly said, "Children, what happened to you?"
Xie Chengfeng seemed to be in a frenzy, "Where is Wang Changyue? Isn't Wang Changyue here?"
Ah Ying almost fainted before he staggered to his feet.
Nanny Su hurried to help her.
"Aying and Su Jian escaped death, and Wang Changyue is leading people to look for He Ni's whereabouts. What does the Third Young Master mean by this?" Aying asked weakly.
When He Ni was mentioned, the old lady immediately asked anxiously: "What happened to He Ni?"
Ah Ying burst into tears instantly, "We were being chased at the foot of the mountain, He Ni said she wanted to lead those people away, and then we lost contact."
Suddenly, the old lady was startled and her body softened, "You, you mean, that child He Ni is still at the foot of the mountain?"
Everyone knows that after an avalanche, the chances of survival are extremely slim. If He Ni is still at the foot of the mountain, then that would be...
"Ah... my He Ni..." The old lady felt a severe pain in her chest and immediately became dizzy.
Xie Chengyi did not intend to let Ah Ying go, so he asked, "Miss Huo, He Ni has no grudge against you and treats you like a sister. How could you take her to a dangerous place on such a snowy day? How could you let her lead the thieves away?"
Ah Ying stared at Xie Chengfeng fiercely, her eyes murderous, "Third Young Master, you are asking why she wanted to go up there, right? This means that the monks you arranged can really guide us. Why did she lead away the group of thieves we encountered when we were going down the mountain? It was because He Ni said that her mother and brother would never really harm her!!!"
The old lady looked at Xie Chengfeng in shock.
Xie Chengfeng sneered, "How ridiculous! When did I ever give orders to the monks? How could I do such unscrupulous things?"
Ah Ying looked at him coldly and took out an arrow from her bosom, "Does Third Young Master recognize this arrow?"
Xie Chengfeng looked serious and subconsciously avoided his gaze, "How do I know these?"
"This is the arrow that shot us and wanted to kill us! I don't recognize the totem on it, but He Ni does!" Aying said to the old lady.
The old lady looked at the arrow in disbelief, "Give it to me."
Ah Ying stepped slowly and handed it to the old lady.
The old lady looked at the arrow tremblingly, and then looked at Xie Chengfeng, "Is this from the Liu family?"
Ah Ying knelt down and said solemnly, "Grandmother! Xie Chengfeng wanted to kill me and used He Ni as bait. My death is not a pity, but He Ni is his biological sister and the biological daughter of his wife. How could they have the heart to do this???"
"Grandma, it was Huo Aying who framed me! I didn't do these things. How could I harm He Ni?" Xie Chengfeng then knelt down heavily with a stern look on his face.
At this time, Ma San also came back with his men.
The group of people looked at each other with their heads lowered.
Ma Sanli asked: "Tell me, who gave you the instructions?"
Those people looked helpless and said, "A monk paid us to say this."
"Monk?" Aying suddenly remembered the monk who had led them up the mountain before.
At this time, Xie Chengfeng said bitterly: "Grandma, all of this is Huo Aying's conspiracy! She holds a grudge against me, so she used He Ni's reason to frame me. I was worried about her safety and came with you to find her!"
A weak voice came from a distance: "You are really good at complaining first..."
