Chapter 1647: Full-level Boss Dressed As a Peasant Girl
Chapter 1647: Meng Yunzheng's Suspicion
Shu Yu patted Meng Han's back and saw Meng Yunzheng walking towards Tao Shi. She couldn't help but look over.
Others were also curious, staring at him, wondering what he intended to do.
Meng Yunzheng stood in front of Tao Shi and said, "Tell me exactly what happened back then."
Tao Shi opened her mouth, her voice hoarse, "I've already said everything…"
Faced with Meng Yunzheng's stern expression, she blinked and quickly added, "I mean, that's all I said."
In fact, what she said was similar to what Meng Han had mentioned, just more detailed.
After listening to her, Meng Yunzheng asked, "So, they didn't stay long, didn't investigate the secret chamber's entrance, and didn't intend to harm my uncle?"
Tao Shi hesitated for a moment, carefully recalling, and furrowed her brow, "I can't be sure, but I saw my husband injured on the ground. One of them was about to strike him with a blade, but hesitated. My husband got up and continued to fight back."
With this recollection, it seemed like they indeed didn't want to harm Meng Xiaoshu.
Thinking of this, Tao Shi suddenly became agitated, stood up abruptly, but felt dizzy. Nonetheless, she grabbed Meng Yunzheng's arm and asked, "Yunzheng, are you suggesting that they won't harm your uncle? That he will be alright, right?"
Meng Qi and Meng Han's eyes lit up, all looking at him expectantly.
Meng Yunzheng frowned, pulling his arm out of Tao Shi's grasp and coldly said, "I don't know."
Other people were disappointed, but Meng Yunzheng continued, "But what my father said before he left wasn't wrong. Jiang Kuanyu's appearance is suspicious. According to what you all said, the bandits seek revenge against those who killed their companions, and they usually act at night. But Jiang Kuanyu appeared in broad daylight. Also, they didn't retaliate against everyone, just a few families, and they only acted on the third night after the chaos. Later, they went into hiding. So, why did he suddenly show up at the Meng family two days ago?"
The others hadn't thought much about these details.
Now, as Meng Yunzheng pointed them out, they suddenly realized.
Indeed, this was strange.
Meng Yunzheng continued, "They knew that the escorts at the bureau were skilled in martial arts, so why did they come in broad daylight? They didn't inquire about the secret chamber, and they were in a hurry to lure my uncle out. They didn't even have time to kill my aunt and Tao Qin. I refuse to believe that ruthless bandits suddenly turned benevolent and spared them."
Tao Shi trembled slightly. Earlier, she hadn't noticed these details, but now, hearing Meng Yunzheng's words, she felt a shiver of fear.
Meng Yunzheng paused for a moment before exhaling softly, "Most likely, they came for my uncle. Jiang Kuanyu probably wanted to use his injured appearance to lure you out, infiltrate the bureau, and then take my uncle away. But he didn't expect that Ah Han would see through his true intentions, and everyone would be on guard. Realizing that he was exposed, he simply took action."
As soon as he finished speaking, Tao Qin, who had been silent, suddenly screamed, looking up and loudly said, "They came for my uncle. Those bandits were provoked by my uncle, so it has nothing to do with me. Why do you blame me?"
Unable to bear it any longer, Meng Han rushed up and slapped Tao Qin fiercely, saying, "Shut up! Regardless of who the bandits were after, we didn't plan to go out at all. It was your foolish and reckless decision that caused trouble for all of us."
