Ye Wu told Gu Qingzhou everything.

"My mother didn't die on the fourth day of October, but on the fourth day of September." Ye Wu cried.

She started from the beginning.

"My mother got sick when I was seven years old. After she got sick, she became very eccentric, very mean to our sisters and servants, and only got better in front of my father.

We all love our mother and will not say anything wrong with her; the servants know that my parents are deeply in love, and they are even more afraid to talk. His father is away all year round, and he has always been unaware of his mother's eccentricities. "Ye Wu said.

She shuddered at the thought of her mother.

After the mother fell ill, her temperament was very violent.

The eldest daughter and the second daughter were slightly older, only Ye Wu was the youngest, and Ye Dujun did not believe her words, so Mrs. Ye kept torturing Ye Wu.

"She...she hit me and scalded me with a bong." Ye Wu's tears were like beads with a broken thread. "Once I gave her medicine, she even pierced my hand with a needle."

When Gu Qingzhou heard this, he was horrified.

It turned out that Ye Wu was abused by her biological mother since she was a child.

"...she was sick. After she beat me, she cried even more sadly than me, but what can I do? When she had an attack, there was always a sense of resentment in her heart, and she wanted to spill it all on me. She controlled it. I can't stop." Ye Wu said.

During that time, Mrs. Ye had a strange personality.

In front of the eldest daughter and her husband, she is as always; in front of the servants, she is mean and severe; only in front of the younger daughter, she will reveal her perversion.

She was inexplicably anxious.

When this irritability is floating, the illness makes her unable to control herself, and she will abuse Ye Wu.

"When I was very young, my mother always held me. She taught me to read and draw red, and she liked me the most. Of the three daughters, she was also the closest to me.

In those years, I didn't dare to say anything, I only hoped that my mother's illness would get better.

However, she is getting serious day by day. She only hit me at first, and later hit my eldest sister, second sister and servant. The eldest sister and the second sister both tried to hide it from their father, so they could not let their father know.

The eldest sister got married later, and the second sister was also grown up. She was often in school, but I was the youngest, and my father told me to take care of my mother.

In the five years from when I was seven until my mother died, I learned a lot. I know how to be likeable and how to deal with my father.

But no matter how I took care of my mother, she was still unhappy, she was thin and withered day by day.

The year my mother died, I started to suffer from insomnia in May. I have nightmares all the time and sleep through the night. I'm all hurt.

Dad finally found out.

When the father and mother confronted, the mother cursed, saying that she wanted all of us to die, why should she be the only one to die.

I felt guilty, and the insomnia got worse.

Later, the pastor of the church hospital gave me some western medicine, saying it could help me sleep. It was good in the beginning, but then something went wrong. "

The topic opened, and Ye Wu told Gu Qingzhou the cause and effect of the matter.

She was already burdened with too much.

Gu Qingzhou also finally understood that Ye Dujun's special preference for Ye Wu was because he felt that he owed her and was making up for her.

"I took the western medicine given by the priest, and I would sleepwalk while sleeping." Ye Wu said.

Gu Qingzhou said: "I once knew a doctor, his name is Arnold. He said that sleep aids may cause side effects of sleepwalking."

Ye Wu wiped her tears and said, "Exactly."

She sleepwalked, went to her mother's side several times, and said she wanted to bring medicine to her mother.

The servants in the house know this.

So, on the fourth day of September, Ye Wu reappeared in Mrs. Ye's main courtyard at night.

There was a huge fire in the sky, Ye Wu ran out of the main courtyard and shouted for firefighting.

"...I don't know why. I coughed hard and woke up." Ye Wu said, "As soon as I opened my eyes, I slept in the yard by myself, and there was fire everywhere."

When people just wake up, their consciousness is weak.

Ye Wu chose to benefit herself, she hurriedly ran out, and called the servant to come and put out the fire.

At that time, Ye Du Jun's mansion had just been established, and Mrs. Ye did not like servants to stay overnight. Ye Du Jun also held a military meeting all night, so only Mrs. Ye was in the yard.

"Father heard the movement, he sent someone to put out the fire, and when the fire subsided a little, he went to lie down, and found that the place where the fire started was not the side, but the mother's bed." Ye Wu covered her face in pain.

Someone set Mrs. Ye's quilt on fire.

The terminally ill Mrs. Ye couldn't get up and run away.

She doesn't even know.

The fire burned the bed and bed curtains and then extended to the roof ridge.

"At that time, I was the only one who appeared in the yard. My father's career had just been established, and I was only a twelve or thirteen-year-old child. Any rumors would be enough to ruin the Ye family and me.

So, the father made a decisive decision and said that he had picked up his mother and put him in another hospital to recuperate. In fact, at that time, my mother had already burned charcoal.

After a month, the mother, who was seriously ill, died because she was frightened and exhausted. No one knew the reason. "Ye Wu said.

They buried Mrs. Ye a month later.

The main courtyard was also completely abandoned and converted into guest rooms.

Except for the Ye family's children and Ye Dujun, no one else knew about this matter.

Ye Wu said this, and even more sobbed at the desk.

"...Maybe, I really set the fire." Ye Wu cried, "In my sleep, I vented all my grievances against her for being abused by her for many years, and set her on fire. I killed her. his own mother."

"No, Ah Wu, it's not you!" Gu Qingzhou said.

Ye Wu cried even more sadly.

"You can't be sure, and neither can I." Ye Wu said, "Even if it's a father, can he guarantee it? Teacher, I'm a murderer, and I'm so afraid of fire."

Gu Qingzhou hugged her.

She stroked Ye Wu's back lightly and whispered, "A-Wu, let's check it out, how about it?"

Ye Wu's cry stopped a little.

She looked up at Gu Qingzhou.

Gu Qingzhou said, "If it's really an accident, then there's nothing to say. What if someone else did it?"

Ye Wu's eyes widened: "No, no one will do this except me..."

Ye Wu was the one who abused Mrs. Ye for the longest time.

The only one who wants revenge on her and wants her to die is Ye Wu.

Therefore, Ye Wu herself was not sure whether she did anything.

"Anything is possible." Gu Qingzhou said, "Awu, I believe in you."

Ye Wu sobbed and asked Gu Qingzhou, "Teacher, when did you know?"

Gu Qingzhou didn't answer.

In fact, she didn't know such a clear inside story at first, and she didn't even know when Mrs. Ye died.

It was Ye Wu who told her now.

Gu Qingzhou firmly believed that Ye Wu's heart ailment originated from the fire in her parents' main courtyard.

She followed this line, pretending to know everything, and followed the clues and saw the clue.

Ye Wu has had such an experience since she was a child. She is not abnormal, but is just indifferent to people and things, which Gu Qingzhou thinks is very rare.

Maybe, she can help Ye Wu.

To untie the knot, it was necessary to prove that Ye Wu did not set fire to it.
