Chapter 268 This is murder



Jiang Si's blunt answer stunned Zhu Ziyu, and an embarrassed look appeared on his face.

Everyone knew that what he just said was just for show, but he didn't expect that this girl actually took it seriously.

There was no problem in going to apologize, but Jiang Si's reaction made Zhu Ziyu recognize this sister-in-law in a new light.

Zhu Ziyu and Jiang Si had not met each other often. In his impression, this sister-in-law was stunningly beautiful and a quiet girl, but he had not expected her true personality to be so difficult to approach.

Zhu Ziyu glanced at Jiang Yi with relief, thinking that fortunately his wife was completely different from his sister-in-law, and had a gentle and affectionate personality.

Jiang Yi was also surprised by Jiang Si's answer, and couldn't help but say: "Fourth sister——"

She knew that her fourth sister had a bit of a temper, and it was normal for her to lose her temper after suffering such a great injustice and fright today. However, with so many people around, it was okay for her husband to feel embarrassed, but it would be bad if the reputation of her fourth sister being spoiled and unforgiving spread.

Jiang Yi looked around worriedly.

Most of the pedestrians who had stopped to watch the excitement had already left, but there were still a few who had nothing better to do and stayed to continue watching the excitement.

"Fourth sister, I know you feel aggrieved. Let's go back and talk about it if we have anything to say." Jiang Yi advised softly, with worry and pleading in her eyes.

Jiang Si turned his heart away and ignored Jiang Yi's plea. He stretched his hand in front of Zhu Ziyu and slowly opened his palm.

The girl's palm was white and soft, with a long needle lying on it.

Zhu Ziyu's eyes suddenly narrowed and he looked at Jiang Si in surprise.

Jiang Yi's heart was beating rapidly, and she asked doubtfully, "Fourth sister, where did this needle come from?"

Could it be that my sister carried a long needle in addition to chili powder and bugs?

Jiang Si's lips were tightly clenched, and his tone was cold: "This was taken out from the hair of the frightened horse's buttocks. The needle was deeply inserted into the flesh, leaving only a small part outside. I think this is why the horse was suddenly frightened."

Jiang Si didn't care what people thought after hearing this, and looked at Zhu Ziyu solemnly: "Brother-in-law, I think the driver of the Zhu Mansion didn't make a mistake unintentionally, right?"

Jiang Si's question made Zhu Ziyu's face turn pale.

Jiang Yi was even more frightened, and said in a lost voice: "Fourth sister, are you saying that the driver stabbed this long needle deliberately?"

Jiang Si took two steps forward and said calmly, "A long needle pierced the horse's buttocks while it was running. Don't you think the driver would be the easiest to do it?"

Jiang Yi had no way of refutation and could not help but look at Zhu Ziyu.

What happened today was beyond her expectations, it all seemed like a dream.

After Zhu Ziyu recovered from his shock, he glared at the driver fiercely and forced a smile at Jiang Si: "Fourth sister, when we get back, my brother-in-law will interrogate the driver and give you an explanation for what happened today. There are so many people here and it's noisy, so let's go first."

Ginger seems to shake its head.

Zhu Ziyu gave Jiang Yichun a look.

Jiang Yi suppressed her surging thoughts and said, "Yes, Fourth Sister, your brother-in-law is right. If there is anything, let's go back and talk about it."

Jiang Si stood there motionless, and sighed, "Big sister, do you think a little rickshaw driver would deliberately target you?"

Jiang Yi was stumped by the question.

Jiang Si narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Zhu Ziyu, and asked with a smile: "Or, does my brother-in-law think so?"

"Of course not..." Zhu Ziyu's face became uglier, but he couldn't lose his temper. He assured solemnly, "When I return, my brother-in-law will find out the truth and won't let you and your elder sister suffer in vain."

This girl is too tactless. She made a scene in front of so many people. If others knew that there was a coachman in the Zhu Mansion who deliberately wanted to harm his master, who knows what kind of unpleasant things would be said about him.

"How can my brother-in-law guarantee that?" Jiang Si asked back. Without waiting for Zhu Ziyu to answer, he sneered, "The person who ordered the driver to harm people must not be an ordinary person. He might have a very close relationship with my brother-in-law. How can I know if my brother-in-law will handle it impartially? Will he just find a scapegoat to deal with me?"

Zhu Ziyu's forehead was already covered with sweat. He smiled bitterly and said, "Fourth sister, your words have made my brother-in-law feel ashamed. You can ask your eldest sister if your brother-in-law is such a person."

Jiang Yi certainly didn't want her sister and her husband to have such a tense situation, so she tried to smooth things over by saying, "Fourth sister, your brother-in-law wouldn't be like this..."

Jiang Si waved his hands: "Brother-in-law, don't bring up my elder sister. After all, brother-in-law is also the master of the Zhu Mansion, and he can easily mobilize the drivers of the mansion. Brother-in-law should avoid suspicion when he is in a melon field and a plum field."

"Fourth sister!" Jiang Yiwan didn't expect Jiang Si to say such a thing, and her expression suddenly changed.

What does fourth sister mean? Do you suspect that what happened today was instigated by your husband?

This thought flashed through Jiang Yi's mind, and she thought it was ridiculous. For the first time, she felt that her sister was too willful.

If it was her mother-in-law who had some complaints about her childlessness or her sisters-in-law who always liked to compare themselves with her, that might be possible, but if it was her husband... that was absolutely impossible.

After marrying into the Zhu family for several years, her husband has taken meticulous care of her. How could he possibly harm her?

Jiang Yi’s reaction made Jiang Si smile bitterly in his heart.

She had long expected that it would be almost impossible to make her elder sister, who loved her so much, suspect Zhu Ziyu, but this accident made her more inclined to believe that there was something wrong with Zhu Ziyu.

Previously, when she saw her elder sister riding in a carriage while Zhu Ziyu was riding a horse, maybe it wasn’t because she was too sensitive, but Zhu Ziyu had already known that the carriage would get out of control...

Of course, this was still her guess, but after her eldest sister's life was in danger, this guess was undoubtedly much more reliable than before.

In two months or so, my elder sister's misfortune will befall her. Under such circumstances, Jiang Si will certainly not let go of any abnormality.

Zhu Ziyu patted Jiang Yi gently, and his attitude towards Jiang Yi was still warm: "Then what do you think we should do, Fourth Sister?"

On one side is a modest gentleman who remains gentle as jade even after being questioned, and on the other side is a little girl who refuses to give in even when she is on the right side. The comparison between the two makes Jiang Si look even more aggressive.

Jiang Si didn't care about other people's opinions at all. He curled his lips and said, "My brother-in-law will come to my father to explain this matter."

Regardless of who instructed the driver, if my eldest sister’s family does not respond when her life is threatened, the person who wants to harm my eldest sister will become more and more unscrupulous in the future.

"Of course." Zhu Ziyu agreed immediately.

His sister-in-law had such a bad temper that she would certainly not let the matter go so easily. He expected her to come and apologize.

Jiang Si nodded slightly, his fair chin raised: "The carriage lost control, and there were only two weak women in the car. This is murder, so I want to report it to the police!"

Regardless of whether the government can find out who murdered her eldest sister, once the matter is reported to the government, people will have the impression that someone in the Zhu family is against her eldest sister. Then, even if she did not stop her eldest sister from having an affair with someone in winter, she will at least have room for counterattack.

The reason is simple. Since someone had used the rickshaw driver to harm my eldest sister before, it is not surprising that they continued to frame her later.

Jiang's move turned passivity into initiative and gained a slight advantage.

“No way!”
