Chapter 209 Fate



"Who is the second young master calling?" As soon as the little maid asked, Master Su and Mrs. You asked almost in unison.

The little maid looked panic-stricken, her pale face looking around consciously.

As her eyes moved around, the people being scanned became nervous.

Finally, the maid's eyes fixed on Jiang Si, and she pointed at her with a stiff lip corner, stammering, "The second young master seems to be calling... cousin Si!"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's eyes fell on Jiang Si.

Yu Shi had been prepared for this, and she glared at Jiang Si with an especially fierce look when she heard this: "Jiang Si, did Yi'er's falling into the water have anything to do with you?"

She really hated him. If she had known that this little bitch was so vicious, she would not have thought about it. This kind of harmful thing should be taken away by God one day, instead of being left to harm people everywhere.

Master Su was relatively calm, and asked the little maid in a deep voice, "Are you sure you heard the Second Young Master shouting like that?"

The little maidservant was very nervous in front of everyone. When she heard Master Su ask this question, she forgot her last hesitation and nodded vigorously, "I heard it clearly. The second young master is calling my cousin!"

"You bastard, do you still care about your life?" Yu screamed and rushed over to hit Jiang Si.

Jiang Yi stood in front of Jiang Si and stopped Youshi: "Aunt, my sister would not hurt anyone, let alone my second cousin!"

"Get out of my way!" Yu Shi pushed Jiang Yi hard, causing him to stagger.

A hand supported Jiang Yi from behind, and a faint girl's voice came: "Aunt is the wife of the prince of Yining Marquis's mansion after all. She has been a housekeeper for many years and has seen a lot. But now, just listening to a little maid's words, she shouted at her niece like a shrew. Don't you think it's beneath your status?"

Jiang Si signaled A'man to take good care of Jiang Yi and looked at Youshi expressionlessly.

Seeing this face that showed no sign of panic, Youshi was furious and cried out, "Identity? My current identity is a mother who lost her son. I don't care about my dignity, as long as the person who killed my son pays for his life!"

As she spoke, she struck out at Jiang Si.

"Stop!" the young man shouted with a hint of anger.

Jiang Zhan grabbed Youshi's wrist, his face full of anger: "I don't care who you are, dare you touch my sister?"

Jiang Zhan was so furious. He was just one step late, and someone actually dared to hit his sister?

Yu's wrist was grabbed and it hurt. She said angrily, "Jiang Zhan, do you still have any manners?"

Jiang Zhan sneered: "Now you ask me if I have rules. As an aunt, you want to beat your niece from your husband's family before you figure out the matter. Where do you get the rules?"

Ah Man supported Jiang Yi, stunned.

I never expected that the Second Young Master would be so majestic!

"Master!" Yu looked at Master Su with tears in her eyes.

Master Su said in a deep voice: "That's right, you should ask clearly first."

Youshi had already determined that it was Jiang Si who killed her second son. After hearing what Master Su said, she was extremely unwilling to accept it.

Su Qingshuang supported Youshi: "Mother, let's ask clearly first. I don't think my cousin will hurt my second brother——"

"What do you know!" You scolded.

Su Qingshuang pursed her lips tightly and tears fell quietly.

She couldn't imagine why her second brother suddenly fell into the water, and she couldn't imagine it had anything to do with her cousin.

Master Su stared at Jiang Si, his face as gloomy as water: "Si'er, have you met Yi'er before?"

Just as Jiang Si was about to speak, a voice came over: "Wait a minute."

Jiang Ancheng strode to Jiang Si's side, pulled her behind him, and stared at Su Da Laoye without showing any weakness: "Are you interrogating my daughter, brother-in-law?"

"Why do you say that, brother-in-law? I am Si'er's uncle. Of course I am not interrogating her. I just want to find out the situation from her."

Jiang Ancheng looked sullen and didn't give Su Da Lao Ye face: "Understanding the situation is not the attitude of the Marquis' Mansion! Brother-in-law, if you think Yi Er didn't fall into the water accidentally and want to find the murderer, report it to the police!"

Report to the authorities?

Everyone was greatly surprised to hear this.

People of leisure are reluctant to deal with government officials because it is troublesome and embarrassing.

If Su Qingyi drowned like this and no one in his family reported it to the authorities, the government would not have sent someone to investigate.

Seeing that Master Su was silent for a moment, Jiang Ancheng frowned and said coldly, "There are only two possibilities for Yi'er's death. One is that he fell into the water accidentally, and the other is that someone pushed him into the water. If it is the first one, then it has nothing to do with Si'er. It is unreasonable for the eldest brother-in-law to interrogate Si'er like this. If it is the second one, don't parents want to find the murderer and avenge their child?"

Jiang Ancheng's words made Mr. Su hesitate.

"Report to the authorities!" said the old lady of Yining Marquis in a deep voice.

"Mother (old lady)——" many voices rang out.

Marquis Yining was a man who didn't care about anything. After hearing what the old lady said, he agreed, "Then report it to the authorities."

"Father, I think there is no need to let the government intervene, right?" said Master Su, glancing at Jiang Si.

He didn't understand where Jiang Ancheng's confidence came from. If the government officials found out what happened between his niece and his second son, it would be a disgrace to both governments.

Although Jiang Ancheng is not a meticulous person, he is extra vigilant when it comes to his daughter. He got angry when he saw Master Su like this.

After all, they are suspected children!

This is also the reason why he insisted on reporting to the police.

He believed in his daughter's innocence and the ability of Shuntian Prefecture Governor Zhen Shicheng. In this case, asking the government to intervene was the wisest choice, which was better than having his daughter questioned like a criminal in public.

"If my brother-in-law thinks it's unnecessary, then others shouldn't say anything, but I won't agree if you keep asking my daughter questions!"

Yu was furious: "Master, is your daughter a treasure and my son a tile?"

Jiang Ancheng had long been annoyed by Youshi's attitude towards his daughter. Hearing this, he sneered, "That's why I suggested reporting it to the authorities. If the authorities come to investigate, I will not stand in the way."

"Just report to the authorities!" Yu Shi had already determined that Jiang Si was responsible for her second son's death, so she said harshly.

Seeing this, Master Su stopped trying to stop them.

While waiting for the government officials to arrive, You Shi cried non-stop beside Su Qingyi's body. The old lady of Yining Marquis was exhausted and went into the house to rest accompanied by Yining Marquis. Master Su remained silent.

Jiang Ancheng quietly patted Jiang Si and whispered, "Don't be afraid, your father is here."

Jiang Si nodded: "My daughter is not afraid."

Not long after waiting, Zhen Shicheng arrived with a group of yamen runners. Master Su came to greet them and said in a sad voice, "Thank you, Master Zhen."

"Prince Su, my condolences." Now was not the time for greetings. Zhen Shicheng greeted Master Su and scanned everyone with his eyes. When his eyes fell on Jiang Si's face, he sighed in his heart.

It's really fate that I meet this girl every time I have a case.
