Mother Song's heart was beating fast. She looked at the police officer and almost subconsciously wanted to interrupt him.
"Wait a moment, comrade!"
The public security comrade was about to continue speaking when he suddenly heard Mother Song speak. He could only stop, look at her, and ask what was wrong.
Mulanzhi and Mu Pingjiang beside her could only suppress their anxiety and look at her. Due to their years of friendship, they didn't want to blame Mother Song at this time, but they still felt a little uncomfortable in their hearts.
Is there anything that must be said at this time?
When Mother Song saw everyone looking at her, sweat broke out on the palms of her hands hanging by her sides.
She said stubbornly, "This, this is a confidential matter. It's not appropriate to talk about it here. Besides, there are outsiders here."
She glanced meaningfully at Liang Jinheng, Wen Wan and the others.
Because Song Zhenwei and she arrived late, they didn't pay much attention to Wen Wan and Liang Jinheng next to them, and just thought they were irrelevant people watching the fun.
She deliberately brought up the two of them now, simply because she wanted to let as few people as possible know about this.
If the two police officers really tell her about it, it would be better for her to learn the news at the Mu family than to be executed in public.
With the former, at least she could save face in front of outsiders and avoid spreading the matter everywhere.
Although once Mu Pingjiang and Mu Lanzhi found out that it was she who told Wu Liang, they would definitely not be as close to her as before, but no matter what, it was better to be embarrassed in front of the Mu family than to be embarrassed in the entire compound!
When Mulanzhi heard what Mother Song said, she was stunned, and then subconsciously looked at Liang Jinheng and Wen Wan beside her.
There was no change in their expressions, as if they were not angry at all when Mother Song told them that they were outsiders.
However, from the moment Mulanzhi decided to invite Liang Jinheng and Wen Wan to her house, she had already decided not to hide their identities anymore.
Even if others looked at her with strange eyes, she was unwilling to let Liang Jinheng suffer any more injustice!
So she immediately explained: "They are not outsiders, they are my eldest son and daughter-in-law, my Mu family, they can listen to this matter."
Hearing this, Mother Song's expression changed again!
She looked at Liang Jinheng in disbelief.
It was also at this time that she looked carefully at Liang Jinheng's face, and suddenly realized how much he and Mu Qingsong looked alike!
These two people look like brothers at first glance, almost like they were cut from the same mold.
Liang Jinheng has always been sensitive to people's gazes, and Mother Song's reaction had been very strange since just now. Therefore, the shocked and terrified look in her eyes when she looked at him at this time made Liang Jinheng vaguely feel that this person might have known of his existence before?
Song Zhenwei was also surprised by this sudden news.
But he didn't think much about it, he just thought it was amazing.
"Old Mu, you have a son. Why haven't I heard you mention it before?"
Mu Pingjiang did not tell him that it was not yet confirmed whether he and Liang Jinheng were biological father and son. He just nodded and waved his hand.
"We'll talk about this later. Let's first sort out Wu Liang's situation."
Song Zhenwei also nodded quickly, "Yes, let's solve this matter first, comrade, you can continue."
After he finished speaking, he couldn't help but turn around and look at Mother Song with a headache. He didn't know why she was talking so much today.
But when he turned around, he found that his wife's face looked particularly strange. She seemed to be hit by some fact and looked dazed.
The public security comrades over there were the least surprised after hearing what Mulanzhi and Mu Pingjiang said, as if they already knew that they had an older son.
So he didn't delay any longer and continued what he was saying.
"Wu Liang confessed that he knew where you were going because of your next-door neighbor. He also said that the neighbor repeatedly threatened and instigated him to go."
Neighbor? !
The expressions of Mulanzhi, Mu Pingjiang, and Song Zhenwei all changed suddenly.
Song Zhenwei's face turned dark.
"Nonsense! I swear to God I never said such words to that Wu Liang!"
The addresses of their two families are somewhat peculiar. The Mu family lives in the leftmost house in this row of small houses. The wall on the left is the end of the road, so if they have any neighbors, it is only the Song family on the right.
But Song Zhenwei and Mu Pingjiang have such a close relationship. He knows how much the Mu family hates Wu Liang, the beast. How could he possibly reveal such news to him?
Song Zhenwei was extremely angry.
"That brat Wu Liang is such a jerk! He's still spouting nonsense even at this point. Is he trying to drag me down with him? Old Mu, don't believe his lies. Don't you know what kind of person I am?"
Song Zhenwei remembered to look at Mu Pingjiang quickly.
Of course, Mu Pingjiang also believed in Song Zhenwei. They had been friends for more than 20 years, and Song Zhenwei would never do such a thing.
He patted his shoulder soothingly and said in a deep voice.
"Don't worry, Lao Song. I trust your character."
But since Song Zhenwei couldn't have told Wu Liang, was it really Wu Liang who was lying?
Mother Song, who was standing nearby, had even thought of pretending to faint when the police officer spoke, but she saw that everyone subconsciously recognized the "neighbor" as Song Zhenwei, and her heart fell back into her stomach.
Not bad, not bad.
Fortunately, they didn’t think about her!
But just when she breathed a sigh of relief and felt she was safe, Liang Jinheng next to her spoke slowly.
"Neighbor, there should be more than one person living here. Why not ask other people?"
Mulanzhi thought Liang Jinheng was saying that there were neighbors next door to their house, so there was only one neighbor. When she was about to explain to him that their family lived at the end of one side and had only one neighbor, the Song family, she was suddenly interrupted by Mu Pingjiang who realized something.
Mu Pingjiang looked at Liang Jinheng's meaningful gaze, and his eyes followed him and gradually fell on Mother Song beside him.
He has always known that Liang Jinheng is smart, so when he suddenly said this at this time, it was obviously not a casual remark, but he must have discovered something.
"Old Song, I really believe in your character, but..."
He didn't need to finish the rest of his words, Song Zhenwei had already understood the meaning.
He also subconsciously looked at his wife next to him. He wanted to defend her immediately, but when he saw the panic on his wife's face, the words of defense stopped at his lips.
After all, they had slept in the same bed for so many years, it was not impossible for him to not notice his wife's abnormal reaction.
In addition, she had been paying too much attention to this matter from the beginning and even tried to interrupt the public security comrades.
Song Zhenwei's expression became more and more ugly, and he became more and more unbelievable.
But he suppressed all his emotions and asked Mother Song in a deep voice.
"Did you tell Wu Liang that?"
The gazes of Song Zhenwei and Mu Pingjiang were extremely oppressive, especially when they frowned. Even the big men in the army would be scared to death, not to mention a woman like Mother Song.
She was already feeling guilty about this matter, and after being looked at and questioned by them, she finally couldn't hold it in anymore.
"I, I didn't mean it. I meant well. I don't mean any harm!"
It was really her!
Everyone around showed an expression of disbelief.
Especially Mulanzhi.
She couldn't believe that it was Mother Song who told Wu Liang where their family was going!
"Yaju, you...how could it be you..."
She looked at her with wide eyes in disbelief, her heart filled with disappointment and bitterness of betrayal.
"You know exactly how much our family hates Wu Liang, and Doudou was lost because of him. How could you, how dare you tell him where we were? Why on earth?"
Mulanzhi has always regarded Mother Song as a good sister over the years, and the relationship between the two is also very good, so she never thought of doubting Mother Song when she suspected anyone else.
But the current situation was like a slap in her face, letting her know that the person she had regarded as a sister for more than 20 years would actually do something behind her back and tell the person their family hated the most!
If Wu Liang hadn't followed him, Qingsong wouldn't have been injured this time!
It turns out that all this was caused by the news passed on by Mother Song!
Song Zhenwei was completely infuriated by his wife's behavior. He could no longer hold back and roared, "Zhao Yaju, are you okay? How could you be so stupid as to tell Wu Liang, Lao Mu, and the others where they were going? What on earth are you thinking?"
He couldn't figure out what her purpose was that made her tell Wu Liang about this!
Mother Song was questioned and scolded by one of her sons, and she was feeling uneasy at first. But now she saw that they were all blaming her, especially that stupid guy Old Song, who even dared to scold her in front of so many people, and she became angry for a moment.
"What's wrong with me? I told you I meant well! Wu Liang is Doudou's father after all. I asked him to go check on the child. But who told the Mu family not to tell us where the child is? If your child is missing, wouldn't you be anxious and want to see him?"
At this time, she had not forgotten her true purpose and just insisted that she had good intentions.
Mu Pingjiang just smiled coldly after hearing this.
"Kindness? Then do you know why Doudou was taken away by human traffickers?"
Mother Song stiffened her neck and replied, "Why else could it be? It's because the human traffickers are so ruthless!"
"Wrong! Doudou was taken away by the human traffickers entirely because that beast Wu Liang wasn't even watching him. Doudou was taken away entirely because of his carelessness! You say you're kind-hearted, but you treat a man who doesn't even consider Doudou his own child as a good father and tell him where we're going? Zhao Yaju, I don't believe you've lived all these years and still can't see what kind of person Wu Liang is!"
Mu Pingjiang didn't believe what Mother Song said.
When a person is lying, no matter how hard he tries to cover it up, his eyes will reveal it.
Also, in his impression, Mother Song is definitely not a nosy person, otherwise she would not be able to get together with Mulanzhi.
Since she is not meddling in other people's business, there must be something related to her, so she told Wu Liang where they were going.
Thinking of this, Mu Pingjiang's face became even colder.
"Zhao Yaju, tell me the truth, why did you tell Wu Liang this news?"
Song Zhenwei, who was standing next to her, saw that Mu Pingjiang was really angry. Even though he was so angry that he wanted to beat her up, he still took into consideration their years of affection and grabbed her arm and urged her, "It's already this late, just tell the truth!"
If there is a justifiable reason by then, I can wait for the Mu family to calm down and then come to their house to apologize and reconcile with them.
But if she really continues to lie, the friendship between their two families may really be broken because of this matter!
Mother Song was also very panicked.
She didn't know how this old man Mu Pingjiang could be so smart that he guessed that she was lying at once.
But once she really told the truth, the marriage between her daughter Sisi and Mu Qingsong would probably be completely ruined.
Although she said yesterday that she was dissatisfied with the Mu family's attitude towards Song Sisi, this was a good marriage after all, so how could she really bear to give it up?
Just as Mother Song was racking her brains to think of an excuse, Liang Jinheng next to her spoke again.
"It's because of me."
