”Lord Liu, you misunderstood. I did not come here for the case. I did think of Sister Liu, and I have met her several times. Right now, we have also suddenly crossed paths, so I wanted to burn incense on her.”
Vice Minister Liu was shocked by Su Li's tears and did not know what to say.
Su Li raised her face with tears streaming down her face, her expression was sorrowful and desperate.
I don't know when I'll end up like Sister Liu, but I hope that Lord Liu will pity me and let me first go see Sister Liu and talk to her. When I get down there and let her take care of me, I'm afraid … ”
Vice Minister Liu seemed to be moved. His expression eased a little, but he still did not speak.
Suddenly, a woman's voice came from outside the door, ”Poor Fourth Miss, let's go. I'll bring you to Yin'er to burn incense.
Su Li looked at the woman outside the door with teary eyes. Although she was dressed richly, she could not hide the haggardness on her face.
The one who came was Liu Yin's mother, the Zhang Clan.
Su Li immediately stood up and walked over with a sob, ”Thank you Madam Liu for your consent.”
Under the Zhang family's lead, the few of them went to the courtyard Liu Yin lived in. Due to the disgrace of her death, her tablet could only be secretly placed in her room.
Su Li retracted the tears in his eyes, and calmly looked around at the furnishings in the house.
No Buddha statues!
The Zhang family lit a stick of incense and passed it to Su Li, ”Yunlan, as a child, follow by Yin'er's side. Before Yin'er died, she instructed us to treat her well, but after Yin'er died, she left the Assistant Minister Mansion.
Su Li did not make a sound, and instead sincerely offered a stick of incense to Liu Yin's tablet.
Mrs. Zhang wiped away her tears. Although two months had passed, she had yet to recover from the matter of the white-haired man sending off the black-haired man.
Su Li helped her sit down at the side, and said while sighing, ”During this year's Fragrant Season, I even saw Sister Liu at Green Mountain Temple. She was such a kind and amiable person, why didn't Buddha protect her?”
Upon hearing the two words ”Fragrance Court”, Zhang Shi's entire body trembled, and her eyes that were filled with tears suddenly went cold.
”I should have accompanied her. If I had accompanied her, she wouldn't have … ”I won't …”
”Not what?”
Zhang Shi closed his eyes, ”I'm tired, so I won't send Fourth Miss off.”
Su Li suppressed her anxiety and forced out two streams of tears, ”Madam Liu, please don't feel sad anymore. I think Sister Liu is also not willing to see you blaming yourself like this.”
”Thank you for coming to see Yin'er. You are also a bitter child. If mother is not here, you will inevitably be a little tricky. It's good that you know your wrongs.”
”That's right. That day at the party, a person by Sister Liu's side borrowed a tael of silver from me.” Su Li faked it and probed.
”Fourth Miss is talking about Jing An?”
”It should be him. I saw that he is Sister Liu's person, so I lent it to him.” After Su Li finished speaking, he hurriedly waved his hand and said, ”I'm not asking him to return the silver, I just want to tell him that I probably won't be able to live for long, there's no need to return the silver.”
Zhang Shi sighed, ”After Yin'er's accident, he also left the Assistant Minister Mansion, and went missing.”
