Mrs. Wei's yard is connected to a whole peach orchard, and when you go out from the back door, you can't see the end at a glance.

Irrigated by heavy rain, the smell of peaches is mixed with the smell of the soil, which smells sweet and greasy.

"Ouch!"

Yu Chixiu fell to the ground with several big peaches in his arms.

He turned his head and glared at a certain chubby girl: "Woman! I warn you to be gentle! Otherwise... I'll eat your peaches!"

Su Xiaoxiao specially picked a few of the biggest ones, and if she was presumptuous, he would bite them one by one!

It is really a particularly vicious threat!

Su Xiaoxiao walked over casually in a coir raincoat: "If you dare to take a bite, you will die."

Yu Chixiu hehe said, "What can you do with me?"

Su Xiaoxiao said: "I'll draw a photo of you and send it to Yuniang!"

Yu Chixiu looked bewildered: "What is a fruit mask?"

Su Xiaoxiao's meaningful eyes swept over him.

Yuchixiu's stomach felt cold, and he immediately tightened his legs!

"It's so windy."

Ping'er was cleaning up the flowers and branches that Mrs. Wei had cut off, when she suddenly felt a gust of cold wind blowing, she said to Mrs. Wei, "Madam, let me see if the back door was blown open by the wind."

Mrs. Wei hummed.

Ping'er got up and left the room.

Thinking that the back door was not far away and there was a shed in the aisle, he didn't wear a coir raincoat and only held an oil-paper umbrella.

"It was really blown away by the wind. It's strange. I obviously put the latch on."

Ping'er muttered in wonder, stepped forward, and closed the two back doors.

Just when there was only the last small gap left, two wet hands suddenly stretched in and blocked the door panel with their backhands.

Ping'er was startled: "Ah!"

The door was slowly opened.

Amidst the thunder and lightning, a chubby figure walked in with an indifferent expression.

Pinger's first reaction was to see a ghost.

And when the other party took off the bamboo hat, Ping'er was taken aback: "Su, Miss Su?!"

The cold wind rustled the windows.

Ping'er lowered her head and walked in cautiously.

"Come in and close the door," Mrs. Wei said.

Ping'er stepped across the threshold slowly.

Mrs. Wei was about to ask what's the matter, her eyes swept away, and she caught a glimpse of two shadows on the ground.

She slowly inserted the cut flowers into the vase: "Go boil a pot of water to make tea."

"Yes." Ping'er turned around and went to the stove to boil water.

Su Xiaoxiao left the coir raincoat and bamboo hat at the door, stepped inside, and sat down opposite Mrs. Wei.

She is not used to the sitting posture, so she sat cross-legged on the futon very boldly.

Mrs. Wei didn't look at her, and continued to concentrate on pruning the flower branches.

Su Xiaoxiao is not the kind of person who would feel embarrassed if you ignore me, she is always at ease.

There is also a pair of scissors on the table for Pinger.

Su Xiaoxiao picked it up as if no one was there, chose a peony, and cut it down with a snap of the scissors.

Mrs. Wei's eyebrows jumped.

Su Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows, took another peony, and cut it with a click.

Mrs. Wei's eyelashes trembled slightly, and her expression gradually became tense.

Just when Su Xiaoxiao picked up the third flower, Mrs. Wei finally said, "What are you doing here?"

Su Xiaoxiao looked at the orchid in her hand, and said flatly, "What does Mrs. Wei think I'm here for?"

Mrs. Wei looked at the flowers and branches that Su Xiaoxiao had cut indiscriminately, endured it, and said: "No matter what you do here, you will die."

Su Xiaoxiao said: "Mrs. Wei, I don't really understand. You still have compassion for a maid, why are you so cruel to your own son?"

Madam Wei's expression paused, and her eyes fell on Su Xiaoxiao's face: "The person hiding behind the curtain in the gambling house the night before...was you."

"it's me."

Su Xiaoxiao generously admitted.

That night Mrs. Wei really found someone behind the curtain, and she actually held back her silence.

Mrs. Wei didn't answer any more.

It seems that Su Xiaoxiao has no interest in why Su Xiaoxiao appeared in the casino.

Su Xiaoxiao said: "Don't you ask if I am following you?"

Mrs. Wei said: "Otherwise? Are you hiding behind the curtain for fun?"

What a sharp woman, straight to the point, without a word of obscurity.

Su Xiaoxiao took a deep look at her and said, "Don't get me wrong, Wei Ting didn't ask me to follow you. No matter how suspicious you are, Mrs. Wei, Wei Ting never doubted you. I'm different."

Mrs. Wei said: "So you came to the mansion today not to diagnose my pulse, but to test me?"

Su Xiaoxiao said: "That's right."

Mrs. Wei said again: "Why do you want to test me?"

Su Xiaoxiao looked into her eyes for a moment: "Try to see if you are Wei Ting's mother."

Mrs. Wei said lightly: "This is also worth exploring."

Su Xiaoxiao said: "I haven't finished yet, there is an inner ghost in the Wei family, and the death of Old General Wei is related to the inner ghost."

Mrs. Wei paused: "So, you suspect that I'm an insider?"

"I used to be so suspicious." Su Xiao said, "But I thought about it later, whether you are Wei Ting's mother or not, you are unlikely to be a ghost. If you are a ghost, in order not to be discovered, you At least pretend to care about a few children and act like a real mother. As for reducing contact, so as not to inadvertently reveal the truth, this is easy to do. There are ways to alienate them and not let them misunderstand. For example, if you are sick, you can’t Isn't it reasonable and not suspicious to give them such a sickness?"

"If you are an inner ghost, all your actions are like telling everyone: come and doubt me! Isn't this ridiculous?"

Mrs. Wei gripped the scissors tightly, and cut off a flower branch: "You came here to tell me these things?"

"Not all." Su Xiao said, looking at the vase in front of her, "The flowers are well arranged."

Just at this moment, Ping'er came over with the brewed tea.

Su Xiaoxiao said to Ping'er: "Take the vase, go outside and tell Wei Ting that your wife has accepted the gift he gave, and it was given to him by your wife."

Ping'er stared blankly at Su Xiaoxiao, then at Mrs. Wei.

Su Xiaoxiao pulled out the dagger from her waist.

"It's useless for you to threaten me." Mrs. Wei said lightly.

"Who said I was going to threaten you?"

Su Xiaoxiao twirled the dagger, pulled it out, cut the blade, and wiped out a series of sparks on the metal scabbard, "Your peach grove is good, if I set it on fire, I don't know if you feel sorry for you."

"By the way, I've picked the biggest peaches ahead of time."

Mrs. Wei looked at Su Xiaoxiao coldly.

Su Xiaoxiao's bully aura is fully on: "Fire oil, no matter how heavy the rain is, it will still burn!"

Madam Wei said calmly, "Are you not afraid that I will kill you?"
