    After the case of the Hong Mansion came to light, Bishui County had a lot of after-dinner conversations. The trivial matters about the relationship between the people in the Hong Mansion had already been compiled into various versions and flew all over the sky. Su Mu just went to the street for a while, andHe has heard countless bizarre and tortuous stories, which made him quite emotional.

    The so-called three people become a tiger, maybe this is it.

    Hearing too many of these stories, he unconsciously wandered to the gate of the Hong Mansion. The gate of the supposedly magnificent and solemn compound was no longer bustling and bustling. The gate was open, so he stood outside and took a look inside.

    The broken walls and ruins after being burned by the fire have not been cleaned up, and the number of servants in the mansion seems to be much less. Occasionally, a few little maids carrying wooden buckets will pass by with their heads down.

    This is a mansion that looks so glamorous, who would have thought that the inside would have already festered like this.

    Su Mu sighed, and when he was about to walk back, a voice sounded from behind him.

    "Master Su?"

    As soon as he turned around, he saw the third miss of the Hong family dressed in black standing not far away with a willow leaf basket.

    Su Mu bowed in surprise, "Miss Hong."

    Hong Xizhi seemed a little haggard compared to before, but her whole body was still filled with that capable aura, after walking a few steps, she also bowed back, and then asked: "Mr. Su, what's the matter here?"

    She didn't know who Su Mu was before. When the county government interrogated her, she was falling asleep due to the effect of Datura flowers, and she didn't see him at all.Su Gongzi's deeds, so he can be recognized.

    Su Mu was slightly taken aback when he heard the words, although Hong Siqi deserved what he deserved, and what he did was not wrong, but after all, he is Miss Hong's own brother, so I don't know if she will blame him.

    He hesitated and said, "Just passing by."

    "Mr. Su is concerned about the situation of our family." Hong Xizhi didn't believe his words at all, and smiled softly, "Mr. Su, you don't have to feel that you owe us anything. What you did was right.It’s over, it’s just my second brother’s own fault.”

    After finishing speaking, she raised her eyes and glanced at the already dilapidated Hong Mansion, showing a somewhat sad expression: "Brother originally said that when the second sister-in-law gave birth to her nephew safely, she would choose an auspicious dayLetting me get married in a good and prosperous way is considered a good couple. But I didn't expect that now not only there is no double happiness, but the family is ruined."

    She pulled out a wry smile: "Both the second sister-in-law and the eldest brother... will never come back again, but it was my second brother who killed them, and my unmarried husband-in-law is also a bastard who only loves money."thing."

    When others mentioned the matter of the Hong Mansion, they would scold the murderer for his indifference, or lament the decline of the Hong Mansion, but no one could understand the heart-wrenching pain better than Hong Xizhi.

    Listening to her words, Su Mu felt even more sour in his heart.

    Miss Hong San may never have imagined that her close relatives who are by her side every day have already become mortal enemies, and what is buried under the peaceful days are the desires and evil thoughts deep in the hearts of people.

    Su Mu sighed and asked, "What are Miss Hong's plans?"

    "This Hong Mansion can no longer be kept. The elder brother still needs to pay off the many debts he owed abroad. I was worried that the courtyard had just been burned and so many shameful things had happened. I was afraid that no one would accept it.Next, fortunately, yesterday I received a letter from a former close friend of my father, saying that someone I know is planning to settle down in this area and intends to buy this piece of land, so it can be regarded as barely a turnaround.”

    Looking into Hong Xizhi's eyes, Su Mu felt from the bottom of his heart that this tough woman would definitely be able to do what others couldn't.Thinking that such a woman would choose someone like Li Zhishan, he couldn't help feeling a little worried, and asked: "Then Miss Hong and Mr. Li's marriage contract will continue?"

    Hong Xizhi frowned when she heard the words, and she blurted out: "Of course I don't want to—" But thinking of the current situation of her family, she suddenly couldn't continue.

    If she said it from her heart, she would never marry the culprit who intended to kill her brother again, but if she wanted to divorce, firstly, her two older brothers could no longer make decisions, and secondly, the dowry gift from Li Zhishan would have been long ago.Being squandered by the elder brother, even if she wanted to, she is powerless now.

    Li Zhishan just came to look for her yesterday, and he looked eager to redeem her, but Hong Xizhi felt a chill down his back when he saw him now, so he could only deal with it a few words before inviting her out.

    Seeing her expression, Su Mu knew that she was in trouble.

    "If Ms. Hong has any concerns, why not tell me? If there is anyone who can help, I will do my best."

    Hong Xizhi looked at Su Mu and hesitated for a moment. Speaking of Su Mu, he had only met him once, and he was quite unfamiliar, so he felt a little inappropriate to tell him hastily.

    And Su Mu also quickly realized that the question he asked was a bit abrupt, so he quickly found a way for himself.

    He cupped his hands and said: "Looking at Miss Hong's appearance, she must be busy with a lot of things, so I won't bother you. If you need any help, please feel free to ask."

    Hong Xizhi didn't leave anyone behind, nodded slightly, and after saluting, he watched Su Mu go out, then sighed lightly, wiped the corners of his eyes lightly, and walked in.

    After thinking about it, Su Musi thought that perhaps he could ask others. Although Hong Xizhi and himself were indeed not related, but he couldn't bear to see this young girl marrying such a wolfish and ambitious person.

    "Mo Shu...do you know what is important about retiring an engagement?"

    Mo Shu walked beside him silently, was taken aback by the question, and then shook his head severely.

    Su Mu nodded, he also guessed that Mo Shu should not be clear, he looks about the same age as himself, and probably has no concept of marriage.

    Lu Lingjue, who has dealt with various matters and has a lot of experience, was originally the best candidate, but recently he followed Liu Xiaoran to see the head of the divine dragon but not its tail because of complicated affairs, and Su Mu couldn't meet them for two days.

    Who should ask?

    If you ask someone from an ordinary family, I'm afraid they don't understand the rules between big families, but if you talk about big families, I really don't know anyone.

    After weighing the two, he casually found a small stall and asked, "Ma'am, is there any reliable matchmaker in this county?"

    When he followed the location to find the door, he had just knocked on the door a few times when he heard a lazy voice.

    "Come on, come on, don't knock!"

    Su Mu only felt that something was wrong, but for a while he couldn't figure out what was wrong. After the door opened, he suddenly figured it out.

    He originally thought that the top matchmaker in Bishui County would be a gorgeous and rich middle-aged woman, but he didn't expect that the person who opened the door was not only thin, but also a man who looked only in his twenties.

    "You... are you the face matchmaker?"

    Perhaps it was because Su Mu's tone was too hesitant, the man immediately laughed. He had a pair of extremely beautiful peach blossom eyes, which curved into a round crescent moon when he smiled. He was wearing a pink dress, which made him look quiteGraceful and graceful.

    "Yes, this is Yan Hui, so there is no need to doubt it. Since the young master came to look for me on purpose, there must be something important. You might as well come in directly." After speaking, Yan Hui opened the door wide and let out aAfter all, there is a small but well-decorated courtyard inside, behind which is the house where he lives.

    While Su Mu was still immersed in the shock of the fact that the matchmaker turned out to be a man, he secretly looked at the small yard.

    Although it is not comparable to the deep house compound in the Hong Mansion, for a migrant worker, living in such a nice house with a yard alone is considered a petty bourgeois family.Moreover, a lot of flowers and plants have been planted in the small yard, and the arrangement is patchwork. It can be seen that they have been carefully arranged, which shows that this person should be a person of great taste.

    "Bosses? Tell us why you're here." Yan Hui asked Su Mu and Mo Shu to sit down with a smile, and then cut to the chase, "You are not from Bishui County, are you? I have never met you."

    "Yes, we are from Capital City." Su Mu nodded, "We—"

    "A distinguished guest from Capital City, it seems that you are the legendary Mr. Su who looks like a crown of jade but can touch bones without changing his expression." Yan Hui suddenly realized, "seeing something once is better than hearing it one hundred times, SuThe young master is even more handsome than the rumors."

    It's not that Su Mu hasn't been praised for his good looks, especially after he became a little Marquis, Ah Huan almost wanted to compliment him when he saw him.A man praised him for being handsome, and Su Mu always felt a little weird, and the tips of his ears turned red uncontrollably.

    "Where is that..." He could only forcefully twitch the corners of his mouth, and said modestly.

    Yan Hui smiled even more, pretending to be serious and said: "Of course everything looks good."

    Seeing that Su Mu's face was getting redder and redder, he stopped talking in a timely manner: "So Mr. Su came to see me, did you want me to be a matchmaker?"

    Su Mu thought of the business, and didn't care that his face was still a little hot, so he pushed the purse towards Yan Hui first: "I came here to ask, if a girl from a rich family decides that she wants to divorce,What needs to be done?"

    Yan Hui was taken aback by this question: "Young Master Su, is this going to help someone divorce?"

    Su Mu touched the tip of his nose in embarrassment. Although it sounded immoral, he really thought so.

    Seeing Su Mu's appearance, Yan Hui was a little bit embarrassed. It should be because it was inconvenient to explain the reason, and she didn't force it. She said: "If you want to divorce, the first thing is to have a reason for the divorce to be accepted by the man. If the two parties are at a stalemateIf you get involved in the county government, it will not be good for the reputation of your daughter's family. Next, if you have received a betrothal gift, you also need to return the full amount of the betrothal gift first, otherwise you will easily fall into the shoes of others, so you can call off the marriage.”

    The reason for retiring the engagement is quite sufficient. This Li Zhishan's ambition has already been shaken off by himself, that is a certainty. It seems that Miss Hong should be worried because she has no spare money at home.

    That would be easy.

    Su Mu's status is not to say that he is rich, but his family is also quite wealthy, and Mrs. Qin stuffed a lot of money when he went out. It should be easy to collect some money and return it back, but it is quite inconvenient to come out on his own.Words don't go well.

    Yan Hui's voice sounded right at the right time: "The candidates for retiring the engagement also need to be carefully considered, after all, it's a disgraceful thing for the two families, and going there with a clumsy tongue is not flattering."

    He looked at Su Mu meaningfully and stopped.

    Su Mu answered the words very politely: "Then I wonder if you can ask Mr. Yan to go for me?"

    The author has something to say:

    Just take a small tail and it will end soon!

    (On the surface, the little tail who is helping others is actually here to enhance the relationship between Shaoqing and Marquis)
