Chapter 1298 The Divorced Merchant's Daughter 20
"You'll understand when you go back to Miro Island and see it for yourself."
003 responded.
"Then I'll top up some more money."
There's no money in the store.
She wouldn't allow herself to be so poor.
"drop!"
A large sum of gold was then added in.
"Drip drip!"
The usually quiet online store was suddenly interrupted by a few soft sounds, followed by a flattering and sweet voice, "Oh~ my dear host sister, I am your personal customer service representative, 001, at your service at any time."
Shu Jiao: ???
What the hell is this noise?
003: ? ? ?
I've used this online store eight times. What is this thing?
"Congratulations, host! You have achieved the fastest and highest recharge speed in this store. You will enjoy a 30% discount on any item in this store and have priority in picking up your goods..."
001 continued.
"Right of first refusal?"
Shu Jiao raised an eyebrow slightly. "What is this?"
"Here's the thing, host sister. This store is connected to many hosts. If there is only one luminous pearl left in this store at the moment, and you need it, and other hosts also need it, this store will give you priority in supplying it."
"Host sister~"
"If you have any questions, feel free to ask me anytime~ If necessary, 001 can also change the system rules for you~~~"
Shu Jiao: ...
003: ...
"Get lost, you damn clamp."
003 said irritably.
After all these years, this is the first time it has ever known that this mall is equipped with an intelligent classification system.
really.
It's just that its previous host didn't spend enough money.
"Does my sister not like this voice?"
001 Pause for two seconds.
Soon, a greasy, slightly mechanical, bubbly voice appeared, "Little host, you've successfully caught the attention of this store~"
Shu Jiao: ...
What kind of weird noise is that now?!
Shu Jiao's spirits lifted upon hearing this, and she quickly said, "You, hibernate."
"Okay, host. Please wake me up if needed."
With a "ding-dong" sound, it shut itself down.
Shu Jiao couldn't help but raise her hand to rub her temples. "San'er, what is this?"
"Don't make it."
003 shook his head, "This might be a... perk from the mall for generous hosts?"
Is this what you call welfare?
Torture them.
Shu Jiao rolled her eyes.
I was originally thinking of topping up my account with some gold, but I'll hold off for now.
Let her slow down.
Shu Jiao focused her attention on the construction of Miro Island. Watching the houses, fields, and weapon workshops take shape one by one, her mood quickly improved.
Two days later, 003 reminded her: "Host, Mother Ding has gone out."
"Walk."
Shu Jiao picked up Shu Xi and went out for a stroll.
As soon as Shu Jiao stepped out, she noticed a large group of people discreetly watching her, their intention to protect her was all too obvious.
It was obviously arranged by Qi Xun.
Shu Jiao didn't pay any attention.
As they led Shuxi into the theater to listen to music, they had just sat down in a private room on the second floor when they saw Ding's mother, who looked somewhat haggard, passing by through the window.
The other person was heading towards the cloth shop across the street.
"Clap."
Suddenly, for some unknown reason, the pearl necklace on Ding's mother broke, and the round and full pearls rolled to the ground.
One of the pearls rolled to her feet.
She happened to step on it.
And coincidentally, she was standing on the steps.
And coincidentally, the servants following behind her also stepped on the pearls and staggered, unable to stand steadily.
Then, Ding's mother fell down.
The hairpin on her head slipped off and, by sheer coincidence, pierced deep into her neck.
A stream of bright red blood immediately stained the stone pavement.
"Hehe..."
Ding's mother opened her mouth, but only managed to exhale a few breaths before ceasing to breathe.
Those wide-open eyes were filled with disbelief and bewilderment.
"Madam! Madam!"
The servant was terrified.
The old nanny who had served Ding's mother the longest rushed over, stumbling and crawling. She saw the blood, saw Ding's mother's face, which was filled with the aura of death, and then peered behind her…
Finished!
No more energy!
"died……"
"The lady is dead!"
She's finished too.
The old woman knelt there, stunned, tears streaming down her face.
Cry it out, but the business still needs to be done.
She quickly stabilized the situation and directed people to spread the word, "Madam!!! Quickly, someone, go back to the manor immediately to send a message, and also send someone to the palace gates to deliver a message to the palace, asking the master to return..."
They then sent someone to report to the authorities.
In any case, this matter must be filed with the government.
This old nanny has been with Ding's mother for many years and is very experienced. You could say she's bad, but you can't say she's incompetent.
They even know how to protect the scene.
She suspected that something was wrong with the pearl's disappearance, and that someone might be deliberately trying to harm her mistress.
Yes.
That's right.
Shu Jiao was watching from the opposite side.
Watching Ding's mother step into the Yellow Springs.
But what the old nanny wanted to investigate, she naturally couldn't find out. Because the pearl was torn by 003, and the tear didn't look clean, it didn't seem like it was deliberately damaged.
and……
No evidence was left at the scene.
"San'er, you're great."
Shu Jiao praised.
"That is."
003 slightly raised her head and shook it gently, "I'm not like that 001 that the mall gave you."
Shu Jiao: ...
Hearing this, she couldn't help but chuckle. "Of course, my third son is incomparable to any other son."
It was just a boastful remark.
Hearing Shu Jiao's reply, 003 felt a little embarrassed.
It is indeed great.
They hadn't exchanged more than a few words when government officials arrived and surrounded the scene to investigate.
About fifteen minutes later, Mr. Ding hurriedly rode his horse over.
He was in the palace, discussing with the young emperor the matter of seizing power from the regent.
result!
Before he could finish speaking, a palace servant came and said that his wife had fallen to her death in the street.
That was his wife, who had supported him for many years. Naturally, Ding's father valued her highly and immediately left the young emperor behind.
Little Emperor: ? ? ?
What?
Am I not as important as your wife?
That's true.
In Ding's father's mind, the young emperor was merely an excuse, a pretext for him to legitimately oppose the regent. As long as the man was alive, that was enough; how could he compare to his old wife?
not to mention……
With the Zhang family in trouble, now his wife is in trouble too...
Even Ding's father suspected that the regent might have intervened.
Are they openly targeting him, but secretly targeting his family?
Pooh!
Despicable scoundrel!
While cursing the Regent in his heart, Ding's father hurried to the place where Ding's mother had the accident.
"finally reached."
Shu Jiao looked down at the horse galloping past below, a slight smile playing on her lips. "San'er, give this horse some good food."
"Okay~"
003's tone carried a hint of excitement.
"唏伦~"
As the horse neighed, a pill that melted instantly was swallowed.
As Mr. Ding pulled on the reins, just as he was about to dismount...
"唏伦~"
Suddenly, the horse beneath him went berserk, its front hooves rearing up high, throwing Mr. Ding to the ground. Then it turned around, stomped hard on Mr. Ding's head, and galloped away into the distance.
Because someone had died on the street, and the deceased was Ding's mother, the street had already been cleared and there was no one else around.
Shu Jiao wasn't afraid of hurting innocent people.
Not only did the horse run away, but Ding's father was still holding the reins.
He was too weak to let go and could only be dragged along the stone road by the horse; there was no way to save him.
Bloodstains were everywhere.
Anxious.
