C171 The truth of the matter

After getting off the carriage, the grandpa took Zhou Hui and walked all the way inside, until they reached a building, then he stopped.    

    

"Young man, it's here. My granddaughter bought a house here some time ago. It's on the fifth floor. Where did I get so much money from before? "But she said it's because of her work. Even though the price of the house in this small town isn't high, I know her salary. It's impossible for her to buy a set of methods in such a short time. It's probably because they give her some benefits."    

    

He sighed and walked inside.    

    

Zhou Hui could tell that the old man was upset because he was angry at Hong Xiu.    

    

He must have been a righteous person for his entire life as the village's chief, but he still didn't wish for his granddaughter to do such heartless things!    

    

Before reaching the fifth floor, the grandpa said something to Zhou Hui.    

    

"Young man, don't worry. I will definitely persuade Hongxiu. The money for this house was actually earned by swindling you. Then, this house will be taken care of by you!"    

    

Hearing his words, Zhou Hui's eyes immediately opened wide, and he shook his head.    

    

He just wanted to know the truth of the matter, but he was not interested in this house.    

    

Furthermore, in the short period of a few hours he had spent with the old man, Zhou Hui had a very good impression of the old man's personality.    

    

Besides, he did not really affect him much, and Gu Qing had helped him with the quota issue in the Bartender Skill Competition. He did not lose anything.    

    

On the contrary, maybe Hong Xiu knew about the person who took Zhou Luobing away.    

    

The grandpa first knocked on the door. Not long after, a woman's voice came from inside, "Who's there? Wait a moment."    

    

Very quickly, someone came to open the door. After opening the door, Zhou Hui saw a woman in pajamas, yawning as she ran out.    

    

It was indeed Hong Xiu.    

    

When she saw the person in front of her, she was stunned for a moment. Then, she prepared to run into the room, but the grandpa quickly grabbed her arm.    

    

"Hongxiu, how much longer are you going to hide? Do you not want face? I do! I never would have thought that after teaching you for so many years, you would learn to do such a thing. Say, do you owe me for your dead parents?"    

    

Hong Xiu's eyes immediately reddened. She turned around and glared at Zhou Hui, but she couldn't calm her heart down when she saw the elder. She then sighed and let the two enter the house.    

    

Red Soo's tears flowed down as soon as she entered.    

    

"Grandfather, I know that I've let you down, but I also have my own difficulties."    

    

Seeing that the two of them had a deep affection for each other, Zhou Hui could not interject and just sat quietly at the side.    

    

"Xiu-Er, what is going on?" "You should talk to the two of us properly. I don't think that this young lad is a bad person, and he definitely won't take what you did before to heart, right?" After the old man finished speaking, he turned to Zhou Hui's side and looked at him eagerly.    

    

Zhou Hui naturally understood his intentions, and nodded, "Xiao Hong, don't worry. I'm not here to investigate your responsibilities, I just want to know what happened."    

    

After hearing what Zhou Hui said, Hong Xiu calmed down.    

    

The grandpa continued to persuade her. At the beginning, Hong Xiu just continued to cry and did not say anything. After a while, he suddenly spoke.    

    

"Mr. Zhou is my fault. I framed you before, but I also have my own difficulties."    

    

Zhou Hui actually understood that she was just a small babysitter previously. She didn't have any rights, so other people definitely wouldn't take her seriously.    

    

Zhou Hui nodded his head, "Xiao Hong, it's fine, just tell me what you know, I promise that the people at that time will not find you, and I won't tell anyone else your address either."    

    

After Hong Xiu heard Zhou Hui's words, she turned her head to look at her grandfather. Seeing him nod his head benevolently, she finally spoke.    

    

"Before, I was working in the Red City Manor and did it well. That day, I was taking care of the garden with someone else, and it was right beside the ice cellar where you and Miss Zhou were locked in. A very beautiful woman came over and told me that the ice cellar door was not closed, and that there should be a mouse inside.    

    

After she finished speaking, she looked at Zhou Hui somewhat fearfully, and started sobbing again.    

    

Zhou Hui suddenly understood something, no wonder she was so scared that day, and was suddenly locked in the ice cellar.    

    

However, Zhou Yi didn't say anything. She just stared quietly at Hongxiu, wanting to know what would happen next.    

    

Not even two days later, I saw someone else finding you and Miss Zhou from the ice cellar. The two of you had been frozen in the ice cellar for almost four whole days, and Miss Zhou had even fainted due to the cold. I am not sure if she is dead or alive, and I am very afraid that none of them know how you were imprisoned inside.    

    

Zhou Hui sighed, she knew that she was only being used, "I said, don't worry, this is already in the past, what's more, aren't Zhou Luobing and I also alive and well?"    

    

Upon hearing Zhou Luobing's name, Hong Xiu suddenly thought of something, "Oh yes, Mr. Zhou, save Miss Zhou. Although I don't know where she went, I saw those people take her away with my own eyes."    

    

"What?" Zhou Hui stood up instantly after hearing this in shock. He had hoped to hear news of Zhou Luobing from Hong Xiu, but did not expect that Zhong Hong Xiu was watching from the side.    

    

"What the hell is going on?" Zhou Hui couldn't control himself for a moment, and held onto Hong Xiu's arm tightly.    

    

Red was in some pain, and the expression on his face had changed.    

    

The old man quickly stopped Zhou Hui, "Lad, don't be anxious, we already have news of this, right? "First, patiently listen to what Hongxiu has to say."    

    

Only then did Zhou Hui calm down and sat down again. He looked at Hong Xiu with anticipation.    

    

"After you were rescued that day, that woman came to find me again. She told me that I was the one who put you in there, and she had evidence that she wanted to send me to jail. I, of course I wouldn't."    

    

"But I'm also very scared. She just told me to do her a favor, and if I help her, she'll give me a huge sum of money and not argue with me about locking you up in the icehouse."    

    

Zhou Hui asked excitedly, "Is this woman Ziya?"    

    

"Ziya?" Hong Xiu shook her head, "I don't know what Ziya is, and I don't know what her name is either. Just by listening to her talk, I don't think she's someone from China. "    

    

Zhou Hui immediately understood in his heart, which meant that Ziya was definitely not lying.
