Chapter Twelve Snake (Four)
The dead snake with yellow and white stripes looked very beautiful, it was clear at a glance that it couldn't be a wild snake from outside, but rather seemed to be a pet raised by someone, no one dared to come out and claim ownership, perhaps because Mrs. Fang had been furious.
Until He's mother followed Mrs. Fang's orders and checked one by one, they gradually found out the truth.
The Fang family has a large group of servants, many of whom have been following the master since childhood, and some were hired from outside. With so many people around, there are naturally no secrets in the big house, as long as you pay attention, you can ask around and find out in no time.
But this result was unexpected by everyone, and it turned out that the snake was actually the beloved pet of Young Master Qi.
Chen Ge's face turned iron-green, and Qi Shao Ye Fang Ziyuan was her only son. He had always been obedient and well-behaved, although he was young, but extremely favored by Old Master Fang and Madame Fang.
"Mom, this must be a mistake. Ziyuan is so young and timid, how could he possibly raise something like that?" Chen Geqiang laughed and defended.
"What's impossible? Are all the servants in this house going to frame him?" Old Lady Fang was always lenient with her children and grandchildren, but not so with her daughter-in-law. She directly vented her anger on her, "How can you be a mother? Ziyan is still so young, and you let him play with such dangerous things..."
"Mom, I didn't..." Chen Ge said pitifully, "Zi Yan is only seven years old, how could such a small child get this kind of snake? In my opinion, it's clearly someone with ill intentions trying to trick him..."
When Chen Ge heard that the dead snake was her son's pet, she was also shocked. This is a snake, not some small cat or dog. Fang Ziyuan is only seven years old, if he gets bitten by this snake, it will be disastrous. Moreover, the person who sent the snake must have done so secretly without telling her, otherwise how would she, as his mother, not know that there was a snake in her son's room?
How despicable! Chen Ge's back turned cold, he had long forgotten about his rivalry with Zhang Yun, and was now focused on catching the mastermind behind the scenes.
Old Lady Fang obviously thought of this too, she valued the descendants of her family the most, and Fang Ziyuan was also a little grandson who had always been liked by her. "Call Ziyuan over."
Fang Ziyuan also had summer vacation, but he went out early in the morning. Except for the driver who followed him, no one knew where he was going, not even Chen Ge, his mother. Fang Lao Tai Tai was furious and scolded Chen Ge severely.
Chen Ge could only cry and accompany Xiao Xin, while Fang Ziyuan finally arrived late, he was still dazed when he was called over, holding a bulging plastic bag in his hand, it wasn't until he saw the dead snake on the ground that he reacted, and tears came streaming down.
He glared at Fang Zikeng, who was standing beside him with a timid look on his face, and immediately rushed over. Although he was not as tall as him, he still burst out with great energy, his small face flushed red with anger, and he punched and kicked him hard, "It's you! It must be you! Give me back Huang Dawang!"
He excitedly gave a punch and unexpectedly swung out the plastic bag in his hand, and the things inside the bag naturally fell out.
A heap of pink flesh fell to the ground, and both Fang Lao's wife and Zhang Yun Chen Ge were stunned for a moment. It took them several seconds to react, only to realize that it was actually a hairless little mouse!
Three noblewomen let out ear-piercing shrieks, their voices almost bursting through the roof, and they looked utterly disheveled and hideous.
He then calmed down Mrs. He, had a few servants come in to clean up the mice, and personally helped Old Lady Fang sit back down, helping her catch her breath, before finally calming her down.
Mrs. Fang is still in a good mood, but Zhang Yun steps forward to shield her children, "Chen Ge, you're teaching your son well! What kind of nonsense are you bringing home? Don't you have any upbringing?"
Chen Ge also hugged Fang Ziyuan in her arms, feeling both angry and hateful. She couldn't believe that her well-behaved son would be involved with such a naughty child, and suspected that he had been led astray by Fang Zikun. "My good boy, quickly tell Mommy, was this snake bought for you by your brother Zikun?"
"Of course not!" Fang Ziyuan said angrily, her eyes full of resentment as she stared at Fang Zipeng. "He's just jealous that I have Huang Dawang, so he deliberately killed him."
It was then that everyone realized "Huang Da Wang" referred to this snake.
Huang Da Wang, what a nice name, Fang Zi Xuan stared at the snake's corpse, feeling somewhat regretful.
"Zi Yan, don't wrong a good person. Keeping snakes at home was wrong to begin with. We're all doing this for your own good. The one who sent you the snake is truly malicious." Zhang Yun said with a gloating smile.
"You stupid woman, stop spouting nonsense here." Fang Ziyuan was furious and didn't care about being polite anymore. He directly used the words he learned from his mother, making Zhang Yun so angry that she wanted to slap Chen Ge's ears.
"Baby, tell Mommy where this snake came from?" Chen Ge asked with concern, hugging his son.
"It was bought with my pocket money." Fang Ziyuan sobbed, hugging his mother tightly, "Mom, ask him to compensate me for Huang Dawang! I just brought food back for Huang Dawang, but it can't eat anymore..."
Those little mice without hair were actually food for that snake. Thinking of this, everyone felt a wave of nausea again.
"Where did you buy it? Why doesn't Mom know?" Chen Ge asked while using a handkerchief to wipe away his son's tears.
"The flower and bird market in the east of the city, Mom, I want to avenge Huang Dawang!" Fang Ziyuan thought of his beautiful times with Huang Dawang and couldn't help but feel sad.
Zhang Yun let out a cold laugh, "Hmph, this snake is really precious, Zi Yan wants to take revenge on the whole house of elders for it? Isn't he thinking of raising it big and making it his daughter-in-law, and reenacting the legend of Bai Niangzi and Xu Xian..."
"Old three's wife, what nonsense are you spouting?" Madam Fang furrowed her brow. What she detested most about Zhang Yun was that she wouldn't let others off the hook when she had the upper hand. This mouth of hers was so poorly raised, always spewing out all sorts of rubbish. These "red second generation" types were nothing but political upstarts, not genuine young ladies from wealthy families.
Although the other party's words about the snake seeking revenge were not satisfactory, after all, Zhang Yun was still more annoying to her. Fang had already scolded Chen Ge severely, letting Zhang Yun see a good show. Anyway, since things have come to this point and everything has been investigated, there's nothing more to say. Old Lady Fang waved her hand with a tired expression, not wanting to let Zhang Yun feel pleased anymore. "Quickly get rid of this snake, it's disgusting just by looking at it. Fourth Brother's wife should take good care of Zi Yan and not let him come into contact with these messy things again."
