Chapter 14 has a somewhat suspicious, "I'm trying to cover something up" feel to it.
Their young son was kidnapped by their enemies and, right in front of them, was thrown to his death.
"So, Zhong Cuilin entered the Su mansion as a nanny out of resentment? To take revenge on the Su family?"
These people have such strange thinking. If she wants to harbor resentment and seek revenge, why doesn't she look for the murderer or Old Master Su?
But they went to the Su Mansion, which was completely unaware of the situation?
The old master Su raised his eyebrows triumphantly, but his lowered eyelids concealed the intense resentment in his eyes. He said, "Yes, she sympathizes with my situation and wants to help me get the Su family."
Otherwise, how would we have Xiaorou?
Su Meng: "......"
She lost her composure.
So, does that mean Zhong Wanrou is a generation older than her?
This is insane!
They've all gone mad!
That shouldn't be the case.
Suddenly, she remembered a scene and smiled.
The old master Su asked curiously, "What are you laughing at?"
Su Meng shook her head and remained silent, looking at the old man with pity.
The biggest reason Zhong Cuilin entered the Su mansion was probably because she was after the Su family's wealth.
At best, the old master Su was just a pawn in her game.
Whether he participated in the persecution of Su Mianzhi is no longer important.
With a flick of her fingernail, Su Meng sent Old Master Su into a coma once more.
She thought that with Zhong Cuilin as an inside man, the second wife's family must not be as shabby and poor as they appeared on the surface.
But when she found his bankbook and saw the pitiful two-digit number on it, she burst out laughing like a goose.
There was only a little over five hundred yuan in cash in the drawer.
There aren't many decent decorative items in my home.
We're so poor!
The second wife's family did not separate.
He has two sons and a married daughter, but the real power has always been held by the old master Su.
A family of more than ten people, can they live on 500 yuan?
Su Meng raised the corners of her mouth, about to smile, when she thought of the black-clad men with guns guarding the tunnel entrance, and the scarred man and others still scurrying around inside the tunnel.
He slapped himself hard.
Would a family that can afford to support thugs be poor?
Suddenly, Su Meng's gaze fell on the armchair where the old master Su was sitting.
Even though he was so scared that he lost control of his bladder, his right hand never left the handrail.
This... seems a bit like trying to hide something obvious.
Sure enough, there was a mechanism on the handrail.
She pressed the mechanism, and the armchair slid to the side automatically.
Once the armchair stopped moving, the two tightly fitted iron doors shrank back into the ground at both ends.
In a pit that was about thirty square meters in size, golden light peeked out from the cracks in the wooden box.
It illuminated the deep pit.
Su Meng hesitated for a moment, then waved her hand to collect the air.
They also took a metal box.
But at this moment, she felt no joy at the achievement.
Looking at the letters targeting his father in the iron box, as well as the list of treasures that Zhong Cuilin had given him, he was filled with hatred.
He is truly unworthy of being a member of the Su family!
For the sake of his family fortune, he did not hesitate to join forces with outsiders to assassinate Su Mianzhi.
Absolutely despicable!
An eye for an eye must be opened.
Su Meng angrily picked up the box and took out the medicine powder.
But seeing his aged face, a plan formed in his mind.
The most painful thing in life is to be worse off than dead.
What he values most is wealth and the unity and happiness of his family.
Then she will destroy them one by one.
Su Meng kindly put the armchair back in its place, leaving behind an empty pit.
Then, he secretly slipped a note to the Second Madam that read, "Zhong Cuilin is Su Mengjin's first wife, and Zhong Wanrou is his child."
Then place the metal box containing the letters and lists in a prominent place in the restaurant.
She just couldn't believe it. He had pretended to be poor his whole life. Wouldn't his children and grandchildren go crazy when they saw the list of substantial transactions?
"Second Grandfather, this is my return gift to you. I hope you... like it."
As soon as she climbed over the courtyard wall, she heard a child in the dining room exclaim, "Whose box is this? How come there are so many letters?"
Ah~ Dad, Mom, come quick!
This, this... a box of small yellow croakers... two bronze artifacts from a previous dynasty...
Grandpa has so many treasures?
Grandpa, Grandpa, where are you?
"Your grandfather might be in his study. Go and call him for dinner."
No, I'll go help the old man myself.
......
Su Meng looked through the courtyard gate at the lively scene in the restaurant, snapped her fingers, and said, "You guys have your fun first!"
"What would you think if you knew those were just numbers?"
She walked briskly, showing no interest in watching the commotion.
As darkness approached, Su Meng took out a bicycle from her spatial storage and prepared to rush to the train station to buy a ticket.
Although Zhong Cuilin and Shen Wuyang were both detained in the police station, and Zhong Wanrou was about to be sent to the countryside, she felt inexplicably panicked.
She wanted to go to Guangzhou as soon as possible.
Only when you have the goods in your hands can you feel at ease.
As soon as I arrived at the station entrance, I saw a poster of the bustling Bund on the wall, and suddenly the old lady singing a folk song in front of the street office rang in my ears.
Shanghai's bustling metropolis?
Wasn't my maternal grandfather's house in what is commonly known as the Bund?
Could it be that there's news from my maternal grandfather's family, or has something happened?
After hesitating for a moment, Su Meng immediately turned into an empty street and, taking advantage of the dim light, switched from her bicycle to a car.
The car was also brought from the Su Mansion.
In just over ten minutes, she stopped outside her grandfather's small courtyard.
The old lady seemed to be waiting for her.
As soon as she got out of the car, the little old lady, wearing an apron and holding a spatula, rushed out from the small side gate next to the courtyard gate.
"Young lady, you're back."
Su Meng was taken aback for a moment, "May I ask who you are?"
The old woman brushed aside the stray hairs that had fallen in front of her eyes and said with a smile, "I am your mother's wet nurse."
After you turned three, I went back to my hometown in the countryside, so it's normal that you don't recognize me.
Su Meng asked in confusion, "Then why did you come back? My maternal grandfather's family has all moved away."
"Because they weren't home, I volunteered to come back and look after the house."
Miss, the young master came back the day before yesterday and asked me to come find you.
Unfortunately, the young master had to leave this afternoon due to urgent business. This is the letter he left for you.
Su Meng recalled her first encounter with the old lady and smiled as she accepted the letter she was given.
She wasn't familiar with the handwriting on the letter, but she recognized the signature at the end and the unique symbols that belonged to their family.
Su Meng believed the old lady.
After dinner, Su Meng thought of Su Ada, who was fast asleep in the space.
She didn't have much time to take care of the injured, nor could she keep them in the space indefinitely.
Su Ada needs a safe place to recover from his injury.
"Grandma, an elder of mine is injured. Could you please help take care of him?"
The old lady smiled kindly, "Okay! It's nothing."
After thanking her, Su Meng turned and went to the other side of the car.
He carried Su Ada out of the car.
When the old woman chased after her, she saw Su Meng carrying a tall man whose toes were dragging on the ground as he walked back. Startled, she ran forward.
He repeatedly scolded, "Miss, I can help carry it."
"You're just a young girl; if people see you like this, they'll inevitably gossip."
Su Meng, panting, said in a muffled voice, "Isn't it dark? No one will see us."
The old woman sighed and jogged ahead, turning on the lights and directing traffic, "Put it down quickly!"
I clean these rooms every day; they're always spotless.
She didn't ask who the person she brought back was.
However, upon seeing Su Ada's injuries, she covered her mouth and exclaimed in surprise, "Oh my God, how did he get like this?"
I'll go get the first-aid kit.
Because of the movement, blood seeped out of Su Ada's wound.
The old woman skillfully helped clean up, stop the bleeding, and apply medicine, all the while saying to herself, "I listen to the young ladies and gentlemen read books every day, and I watch them grind and prepare medicine every day."
"I can handle these minor things like treating wounds, Miss. Don't worry, leave it to me."
