2731 Chapter 2731-complicated feelings
Master Shu nodded his head with a heavy expression and cupped his fists at Gu Xin, ” “Third young lady is thoughtful. This one thanks third young lady, and also thanks third young lady on behalf of my daughter.”
Gu Xin said, ” I’m sure master Shu already knows that the murderers are a mother and her son. That woman had a dispute with Lord Wang before. She mistakenly thought that it was Lord Wang’s family who had ruined her life. Her son was also affected by her, which led to this murder.”
Master Shu nodded with a heavy expression.
Gu Xin continued,”Zhang Liushi met miss Shu ten years ago.” At that time, she was washing clothes by the river. Miss Shu had floated down from the upstream of the small river in their village. She had saved her and reported it to the village chief and the officials. I’ve asked miss Shu, she only remembered that she was thrown into the water from a sack, she can’t remember anything after that. It’s been ten years. Even if we go to the upper reaches of the river in Zhang Liushi village to investigate, we shouldn’t be able to find anything. Back then, the chief Officer and the officials had also investigated it, but they didn’t find any clues. After that, no one came to pick up miss Shu, so Li Zheng let Zhang Liushi take care of miss Shu.”
“After raising her for about half a year, no one came to find miss Shu, so Zhang Liushi found the chief and wanted miss Shu to be her son’s wife. Li Zheng also felt that no one had come to pick up this girl, and no one in the vicinity had lost a girl, so he made the decision to let them get married. She even went to the government to approve a proper marriage contract.”
“In the ten years that miss Shu was in the Zhang family, she did not do any farm work. Because she liked to eat, the Zhang family’s mother and son satisfied her. Zhang Liushi thought that her son and daughter-in-law had slept in the same room. She had not had any children for so many years. In recent years, she often took miss Shu to pray to God and Buddha, and was very pious. However, Zhang Huzi had never touched miss Shu, and he had even done some things to hide from Zhang Liushi. Before he was escorted back to the capital, Zhang Huzi begged me to take in miss Shu. He told me that miss Shu not only knew how to eat, but she was also very sensitive to incense. As long as I was willing to let someone teach her, she would be able to eat by herself, and he wouldn’t let me raise her for nothing. Therefore, I think that miss Shu will help Zhang Liushi make incense in the Zhang family.”
miss Shu was injured because after the case was solved, old Wang rushed up to hit Zhang Huzi. In order to protect Zhang Huzi, miss Shu ran over and tried to stand in front of him, but she was accidentally hit by old Wang’s hand. She hit her head and fell unconscious. When she woke up, she forgot everything that had happened in the past ten years. She only remembered what happened before she was thrown into the water. No, it couldn’t be said that way, because she still couldn’t remember how she was kidnapped and brought to Tongzhou. Whenever I asked, she would have a headache and her wound would split open. So, I didn’t dare to ask. I don’t dare to tell her the truth.”
After hearing this, master Shu didn’t speak for a long time.
As for the Zhang family’s mother and son, to be honest, putting aside their disputes with the Wang family, if master Shu encountered such a situation, picked up a person, and asked the government, but they couldn’t find the family, then he would most likely raise them.
He was very grateful to the Zhang mother and son for saving Shu Yan and not letting her suffer, especially Zhang Huzi. He did not force Shu Yan in front of the marriage contract.
However, this pair of mother and son was so stubborn towards his younger sister and brother-in-law’s family.
His feelings were indeed very complicated.
