The Epic Revenge Chapter 1384: Cold relief

Si Qiongzhi stood under the tree, holding up an umbrella.

The passing women all had wheat-colored skin. They glanced at Si Qiongzhi curiously, as if they did not understand Si Qiongzhi's behavior.

Si Qiongzhi put away the umbrella in embarrassment.

She is more afraid of the sun.

She doesn't look like her sister-in-law. Her sister-in-law will peel off the skin after sun exposure, and then turn red, and it will take a long time to recover, and it will not be tanned.

She is afraid of the dark.

Even though she has been in Nanyang for so long, Si Qiongzhi still can't understand Nanyang women's standards for skin beauty.

They advocate health, and the sunshine all year round makes them look very energetic. Young, beautiful and dynamic is their new fashion.

They love sports, swimming, playing ball, horseback riding, which they love.

"Qiongzhi?" When she was thinking about something, Gu Qingzhou's car stopped in front of her.

Getting into the car, Gu Qingzhou also asked her, "Why don't you hold an umbrella?"

Si Qiongzhi: "..."

This is really hard to explain.

She changed the subject and asked about today's events, if the morning passed, and if there was any other news.

Gu Qingzhou told Si Qiongzhi what the White Guards said.

Si Qiongzhi was stunned: "I want you to be an official? Or is this a petty official who doesn't enter the bureau?"

"He has his own plans." Gu Qingzhou said with a smile, "With the frequent wars in the past two years, many people have gone out, and there are gradually more wealthy Chinese businessmen in Singapore.

These wealthy people can provide more industries for Singapore. The colonial governor's palace is welcome, but it will be more troublesome to manage.

What Chief Bai means is that our family has a high reputation in the country, and your elder brother's future is uncertain. Take me to the town house first, and at least temporarily handle the affairs of the Pei family. "

Si Qiongzhi was a little worried: "Am I causing trouble?"

"No." Gu Qingzhou said, "Chief Bai also said that you and Hu Qiao'er separated and went home separately. There is proof."

Si Qiongzhi breathed a sigh of relief.

She doesn't ask any more questions.

The car arrived at Pei's house, and as soon as they entered the door, they heard the sound of howling.

It's a young man.

"...I didn't go to Malacca, and when she came back, she became like this, what should I do?" the man cried bitterly.

This is Hu Qiaoer's husband Pei Jie.

Hu Qiaoer and Pei Jie are a young couple, both of whom are only twenty-five or six years old. They have been married for four years and have no children yet. Their relationship is very stable.

The husband went out for a trip, and his wife was stabbed to death when he came back.

Some people advised him to mourn, and some people said that he was thinking of the old grandmother, so that the old man would not be sad.

Gu Qingzhou and Si Qiongzhi were brought in by servants, and there were already other relatives and friends in the central hall, all of whom came to visit after receiving news.

"Don't cry, I will give your daughter-in-law justice." The old lady said.

He was supported by someone next to him.

One after another, there are always guests coming in.

Gu Qingzhou and Si Qiongzhi sat in the first place, comforted a few words, and then told the old lady to ask her to mourn.

The third master of the Pei family said: "Mrs. Si, we handed over this matter to the Department of Guards. I listened to what Chief Bai said. They want to ask you to be the deputy Guard, just to give our family an explanation as soon as possible. , isn't it?"

Everyone looks over.

Gu Qingzhou said: "Chief Bai asked me this morning, and indeed said so, but I haven't agreed. I have never held an important position, I'm afraid I won't be able to do it well..."

The third master of the Pei family said: "We don't have a deep relationship with the Department of Guards, and we actually don't trust them very much. You are close friends with our family, and please ask the Wife too much for help. Please give an explanation as soon as possible. appease the dead."

The old lady of the Pei family said: "Don't force Mrs. Si, Qiao'er's grievances can always be made clear."

Others looked at Gu Qingzhou.

Gu Qingzhou glanced at the third master.

Hu Qiao'er is the young grandmother of the second room, and has nothing to do with the third room, and I heard that the Pei family is also arguing about the separation, and everyone is not on the same page.

The three masters pointed this out in public, as if Gu Qingzhou deliberately didn't help them.

Why?

Gu Qingzhou always felt that there was a hand stirring among them.

She thought of all the possibilities, but she could only think of something related to Si Xingpei's politics, and she didn't know anything else.

"Old lady, I'm afraid that I can't do the job. If the Pei family trusts me, and Chief Bai also trusts me, I will consider it." Gu Qingzhou expressed her attitude.

The old lady of the Pei family only thought she came to the door on purpose to ask about this matter: Does the Pei family mind if she intervenes?

Therefore, the experienced old lady took her attitude: "The Pei family trusts Mrs. Si, please take care of this matter."

This is a misunderstanding.

The old lady thought she wanted to be an official, for fear that their family thought she was taking advantage of the Pei family's misfortune, so she came to report it first; while others seemed to be the Pei family and the Chief Bai who both asked her for Hu Qiao'er's sake Find an explanation.

Three masters inserted this foot in the middle, and it really had an excellent effect.

Gu Qingzhou glanced at him again.

He didn't look at Gu Qingzhou, he just sat silently.

The children of the Pei family are all there, a room full of people.

When Gu Qingzhou and Si Qiongzhi got up to leave, the eldest wife of the Pei family suddenly pushed her son Pei Cheng down: "Acheng, send Mrs. Si and Miss Si to you."

Pei Cheng stood up expressionlessly: "Yes."

He is very restrained, the embarrassment in the morning can no longer be seen, but his attitude is cold.

He sent Gu Qingzhou and Si Qiongzhi to the gate, and chatted with Gu Qingzhou along the way: "When are you going to investigate at the Guard Office?"

"I don't know yet."

"I hope it will be sooner." Pei Cheng said, "Mrs. Si, if you plan this matter, I can talk to you. That day, I saw my second sibling, and I don't know if some details are useful or not."

Si Qiongzhi glanced at him.

Pei Cheng immediately felt her gaze and said, "Miss Si, don't worry, I'm not talking about you."

Si Qiongzhi withdrew his gaze.

"...However, Miss Si seems to be very guilty." Pei Cheng added, "I know Miss Si won't kill anyone, because the four knives that go in are very deep, so you can stab them in and then pull them out. It takes a lot of strength, not something a thin girl like you can do.

The second sibling showed no signs of struggle, indicating that the murderer was steadfast and precise when stabbed, and with great strength, with a bone-eroding hatred, it should be a man. Miss Si has no personal enmity with her. As long as she is not blind, she will not doubt you, so there is no need to be so uneasy. "

Si Qiongzhi: "..."

This should be a comforting word, but it came out of his mouth with a bit of sarcasm, making it uncomfortable no matter how he heard it.

Si Qiongzhi didn't know how to answer for a while.

She remembered that this morning, Pei Cheng asked her to go to the office and closed the door. She originally wanted to ask her something, but then she got into a big embarrassment. She got up to leave without having time to ask anything.

She was so choked by Pei Cheng's words that she didn't know how to speak, and after a while, she buzzed: "Thank you."

After leaving Pei's house and getting into the car, Gu Qingzhou asked Si Qiongzhi, "Is he Pei Cheng?"

"It's him."

"That's the one..." Gu Qingzhou thought about his words. Si Qiongzhi said, "Well, that's it. Sister-in-law, don't mention it any more."
