Chapter 2194: That was a barrier in their hearts (1)
At most, she would not pursue it.
Since Zhan ruxue had mental problems, she would just give in and not argue with her.
Ruan Mengmeng was not a venomous and petty person. Her heart ached for li junyu, and it hurt from the bottom of her heart.
Li junyu felt ruan Mengmeng’s soft little hand holding his large palm, and the malicious look in his eyes suddenly disappeared.
He looked down at ruan Mengmeng, his gaze deep and dark. it’s alright. Since we’ve already reached this point, let’s make it clear at once.
Although li junyu felt disgusted and repulsed from the bottom of his heart when he recalled the past, what he hated even more was Mengmeng’s misunderstanding, suspicion, and distrust.
Li junyu grabbed ruan Mengmeng’s hand tightly and said in a low voice, ” “At that time, after my mother was accused of poisoning the old master and old lady, she was locked up alone because of the family scandal. In order to protect his mother, his father could only admit that his mother had mental problems and would do such a thing. Because of the irrefutable evidence, his father could not reverse the verdict for his mother.
After that, aunt Shu committed suicide one night. She was found dead in the room, with a confession letter by her side, and the same poison that Xuxu had put in the food of the old master and the old lady.”
Yue xuexin had been locked up alone. Other than Chen Qing, who she had saved, only li junyu and his two brothers could visit her occasionally.
Even Lin zhenshu and Zhan ruxue, who were staying at the Li family, could not go near Yue xuexin’s Villa.
Lin zhenshu suddenly wrote a confession letter and committed suicide, admitting that she was jealous of the happiness of the Li family, so she was controlled by the demon in her heart and did it.
She had personally confessed and committed suicide out of guilt, leaving behind a bottle of poison that the two elders had put in their food.
Lin zhenshu couldn’t have seen Yue xuexin at that time, so it indirectly proved Yue xuexin’s innocence.
Ruan Mengmeng’s eyes were filled with suspicion. this shouldn’t have been Lin zhenshu’s doing. If she was really venting her anger and resentment as she said, why would she commit suicide out of guilt? ”
“Yes, of course not aunt Shu,” li junyu replied coldly. Aunt Shu was a very weak and timid person. After stabbing Zhan mang, she was in a constant state of anxiety and did not dare to come out to meet people for a long time. It was also because of this that she lived in another small building and almost did not dare to leave her room. The bottle of poison came too strangely.
But no matter what the truth is, at least the lordmaster has temporarily accepted this explanation.”
Old master Li might not have had no suspicions, but this was undoubtedly the best result.
The daughter-in-law could be ordered to recuperate with other excuses, but if the matter of the daughter-in-law poisoning the in-laws were to be spread, it would be a stain on the Li family.
Therefore, without any in-depth investigation, the Li family could be considered to have accepted Lin Shuzhen’s act of returning kindness with ingratitude and poisoning the benefactor’s family out of jealousy.
Li junyu replied,’aunt Shu must have done that for my mother. She was not a woman with foresight, nor was she a smart woman. She was even a coward. I can almost guess what she’s thinking. She must have thought that by doing that, father and mother would be able to reconcile, that the old master and old lady would accept mother again, and that mother would not continue to be under house arrest.”
Ruan Mengmeng’s soft almond-shaped eyes flickered, but she did not know what to say at that moment.
The difference between her and Zhan ruxue was too great. Her mother was the ‘criminal’ of li junyu’s mother’s death, but Zhan ruxue’s mother had saved li junyu’s mother.
