Chapter 1246: Marriage Recovered Through Fraud (12)
"Except me." Du Zhou looked at her with complicated eyes, "Do I need to write a letter to frame you? Do you think I'm not green enough?"
Shi Chu laughed dryly, carefully recalled the original owner's memory, and her life in the past few months after coming here, and finally told Du Zhou firmly: "Except for you, I really haven't offended anyone."
As soon as she said this, an idea suddenly flashed in her mind, and she thought of Wang Minxi, whom she met while picking wild vegetables in the mountains a few days ago. So she looked at Duzhou with a very subtle expression and said, "I almost forgot that I actually met someone who was very hostile to me."
"Who is it?" Duzhou's face changed and he asked quickly. Of course, he was not worried about Shi Chu, he just didn't want his family affairs to be used against him.
"She is a female educated youth in the village named Wang Minxi. Do you know her?" Shi Chu said, staring at him without blinking, trying to read something from his face.
But before he could answer, Du Xiaoling raised her hand happily and said to Shi Chu: "Auntie, I know, I know! That Wang Minxi often chats with grandma, and she likes me very much!"
When Shi Chu heard her words, he raised his eyebrows and looked at Du Zhou meaningfully, saying, "It seems that some people are very good at circuitous tactics and know how to start with your mother and child."
Duzhou was at a loss for a moment, frowning and thinking, before he found a vague shadow in the corner of his memory and said, "I seem to have seen her, but I'm not familiar with her. I often go on business trips, and when I'm not on business trips, I'm in the transport team, so I rarely see those educated youth in the village."
After he finished speaking, he looked at Shi Chu with a warning: "Don't make random guesses, lest you affect other people's reputations."
Shi Chu couldn't help but roll his eyes. "What kind of wild guesses? She came to me two days ago and ridiculed and insulted me, saying that I was not worthy of being your wife, that I had used tricks to marry you, that you hated me and would definitely abandon me in the future, and that my good days would not last long. Tell me, she has directly declared her hostility towards me in front of me, do I still believe that she is really just defending you?"
Duzhou's face suddenly showed an expression of vigilance and alertness. He immediately explained, "No matter what her purpose is, I have never dealt with her before, and I will never have any contact with her in the future. Just ignore her."
"Tsk tsk..." Shi Chu looked him up and down. "She said that if I hadn't taken the initiative to snatch you away, she would have been the one to marry you. She is very interested in you and is eager for me to give up my throne to her as soon as possible. It seems that the person who wrote this letter is very likely her. Only she has the motive to sow discord between you and me."
Duzhou pursed his lips, his face showing obvious displeasure, and said: "If it is really her, then she is really evil and vicious."
"People say that beautiful women are the root of trouble, but I didn't expect that handsome men can also be the root of trouble. Duzhou, this time I've been implicated by you and people have spread rumors about me." Shi Chu said rudely.
Du Xiaoling interrupted again, opened her eyes wide with curiosity and asked: "Auntie, what are the two? A beautiful woman is the root of trouble."
Shi Chu choked, glanced at Duzhou, and said, "Ask your father. I have only heard the old people in the village say these two words, and I only vaguely know what they mean."
She couldn't help but wipe the sweat off her forehead, as she almost exposed herself - her current character was that of an illiterate village girl, so how could she possibly know what a beautiful woman is.
Fortunately, Du Zhou did not doubt it. He touched Du Xiaoling's head in his arms and said softly, "This is not a good word. You will know it when you go to school."
"Okay." Du Xiaoling responded disappointedly and started playing with the buttons on her father's shirt.
"Duzhou, you got yourself into trouble with love affairs, so you should deal with it yourself, okay?" Shi Chu threw the matter to him, "I am the victim implicated by you."
Du Zhou had no choice but to nod: "I will take care of it. But I can't be sure whether it was her who did it yet. I have to check it out before I can say anything."
"What if you are sure that it was her who did it? How would you solve it?" Shi Chu asked curiously, and then thought of a possibility, his face immediately became serious, "You don't think that since she didn't succeed in framing me and didn't cause serious consequences, you can just let her apologize to me and let it go, right?"
If he really handled it this way, Chu would never let it go.
Fortunately, Duzhou was not so confused. He shook his head and said, "Of course I won't let her go easily. As for how to deal with it, I will think of a proper way. You don't have to worry."
"Okay, I'll believe you for now." Shi Chu didn't ask him any more questions.
Since Shi Chu had cleared herself of suspicion, Du Zhou no longer guarded against her. He put Du Xiaoling down and let her go out to play. He then carefully examined the letter again. Only then did he realize that even though the font in the letter was deliberately large and ugly, as if it was written by someone with a low level of education who had just learned to write a few words, there was not a single typo! There were not even any missing strokes...
This requires a lot of patience to think about. The person behind the scenes probably overlooked this point, and even if he pretended, he did not pretend well. Duzhou no longer had the previous impulse and anger, and when he regained his rationality, he found that the letter was full of loopholes.
He flipped through the envelope again and said, "This letter is not sealed, so the person who wrote it wanted me to get it before you, so that I can read the contents of the letter and become suspicious and wary of you."
Shi Chu pretended to have just discovered it and said in surprise: "You are right, the person who framed me really planned it carefully."
"And the words above are written crookedly and large, but there is not a single typo. This is totally illogical." Duzhou told Shi Chu about this doubt again.
Shi Chu could only nod in agreement, and said to him with admiration: "Duzhou, you are really meticulous. I will wait for you to find the person who wants to harm me and avenge me."
Duzhou: "I will definitely find it out."
After Duzhou said this, Shi Chu no longer thought about the matter and quickly put it out of her mind. Duzhou was still a trustworthy person, and she just needed to wait for his results.
Of course, she wasn't just waiting for Duzhou to solve the problem. If Duzhou didn't satisfy her with the result, she could just do it herself. She could do it quietly...
Because of the misunderstanding in the moment, Duzhou treated Shichu much better in the following days. Not only did he take care of the children after work, but he also helped with housework sometimes. Shichu felt much more relaxed, thinking that if such misunderstandings happened a few more times, she would be able to handle it...
