Chapter 6: The Strange Yard

The Liao family also knew that distant relatives were not as good as close neighbors, so when they went to find Mrs. Shen, they were also very polite, and said the matter tactfully, and finally said, "Actually, I'm also afraid that Noble will say too many such things and delay his marriage." If he says this, it will inevitably not be taken seriously to others. ”

Mrs. Shen is weak and reasonable, and she knows that this matter really can't be talked nonsense, and no one will take what her son says stupidly, so it is not difficult to find a daughter-in-law. But Hua Ling is a girl, and if she talks too much, it will ruin her reputation. She smiled and said, "I'll talk about him about this, don't worry, sister, if he dares to say such things again tomorrow, I won't spare him." ”

Liao's meaning was conveyed, and Mrs. Shen also said so, so she didn't make it difficult and led Mama Ge back home.

At this time, Shen Laibao was checking in the pool where Xiu'er fell into the water, the pool was a lotus pond, the lotus flowers withered last winter, and this year it just emerged green tips, like duckweed wandering on the water surface. He stood on the railing and looked down, and it turned out that there was a small land on the edge of the lotus pond. As soon as he walked to the entrance of the down, he was stopped by the subordinate in a panic, "Little Ancestor, you must not go down." ”

"I'm just going to see it, and I won't fall into the water."

"If you fall in again, the villain will die."

No matter what Shen Laibao said, he refused, and in the end he had to scare him, "I'm going to deduct your salary." ”

The next man's throat was dry, "What did you say?" ”

Shen Laibao smirked, and his subordinate straightened up, "I'll let you go down for a while." ”

He pursed his lips and walked from the entrance to the small land. He walked very slowly, and he went to fiddle with the stones. The stone has been soaked in water for a long time, and a lot of moss has grown under it, and I reached out and touched it, and it was slippery, and I smelled it, and it also smelled fishy. The red brocade in the pool was swimming happily, and the bold ones even came to the shore to show their faces in front of Shen Laibao.

He moved slowly, looked closely at the shore, and saw that the people behind him were terrified, and stretched out his hands ready to catch him. As he walked, he suddenly saw him stop, and his subordinates tightened their hearts, only to see him squatting down to fish for water and playing, "Young master......"

"Shh Shen Laibao motioned for him to be silent, and he scooped up the water in his palm from the abnormal recess, and the water slid down from his palm and fell back into the pool. He touched the edge, and the muddy water dispersed, muddying the large depression. He gestured, slightly shocked, this was almost the same size as the stone tied to Xiu'er's back. Moreover, the lotus pond here has been built for many years, and even if there are depressions, the surrounding soil should not be so soft. He looked up at the railing and couldn't help but sneer, it turned out that the stone was dug from here.

Xiu'er didn't drown herself, but was killed around, and then tied to a stone and sunk in a lotus pond, creating the illusion that she committed suicide.

According to his current understanding of this Dayang country, the master does not need to be responsible for killing the servant, the second aunt An often beats and scolds Xiu'er, as we all know, even if she beats Xiu'er to death, she does not need to pay for her life, or even make amends. So she had no reason to spend so much effort to kill Xiu'er, so her suspicion was ruled out.

The courtyard of the Shen family will be closed at night, and digging a big stone is not a matter of time and a half. If Xiu'er was killed in another yard, then the murderer would drag her back and spend time digging out the stones, so that no one could see her?

He thought that the murderer might not be one person, but maybe two, one digging for rocks and the other looking at the wind.

Who is the person who lives in this courtyard...... His brows furrowed slightly, his eyes were quick, in addition to the second aunt An's, there was also the third aunt Han's.

"Ah Wu, why did you let the young master go to the water's edge again, let the wife know, I have to break your leg."

The sound was like a warbler's cry, and it was a little unkind, Shen Laibao looked up, and saw a pretty woman standing on the corridor, her eyebrows and eyes were very deep, and the tails of her eyes were lightly traced red, looking pretty and flying. Shen Laibao, who has always been famous for her memory, remembered that she was the second aunt An, and then looked at the woman next to her, who was also young and beautiful, and it was the third aunt Han.

Han's lips are not stained, thin and slightly curved, with a slightly caustic physiognomy. She pursed her lips and was silent at this time, and looked at Shen Laibao with a pair of bright eyes.

When Ah Wuyi heard this, he immediately hugged Shen Laibao and went back to the shore, and when he put him down, he knelt on the ground, "I have seen the second aunt and the third aunt, it was the villain who didn't pay attention and let the young master go to the pool to play, please don't sue the master, it's the villain's fault." ”

Shen Laibao praised him in his heart, yes, quite righteous.

An Shi shook the small fan lightly and said with a smile, "We are also worried, and we don't want to be held accountable, and it is not our turn to blame the person who put Mrs. inside, where do we have the courage to do this." Go back, don't always run to this yard, I don't know, I thought we were going to rob my wife's precious son. ”

The tone was yin and yang, Shen Laibao glanced at the two of them, and then turned around and left here.

When he left, Han said, "I always feel that he has changed since he woke up from a coma that night." ”

An Shi glanced at him and chuckled, "What's the change, it's not that stupid, let's go, I asked someone to find a spirit bird, the singing is good, go to my house and listen." ”

Han retracted his gaze and smiled, "Okay." ”

She moved sideways, and a hidden fragrance wafted from her body, An Shi lowered her head and sniffed lightly, and asked, "Sandalwood?" When did you worship the Buddha and make offerings to Shinto? ”

Han paused slightly and smiled lightly, "I have never believed in Buddhism, but I haven't slept well recently, and it happened that my mother's family sent some and used it." Let's go, I want to hear the birds sing. ”

An sighed, since the fourth aunt and the fifth aunt were carried into the door, her room has been deserted, and she can only pass the life with the third aunt, listen to a little song and play some new and interesting things, this day is boring, this night, it is even more lonely and sleepless. It's no wonder that Han can't sleep, why shouldn't she, "Give me some sleep later." ”

"Okay." Han smiled slightly, and glanced at the lotus pond again, the duckweed was spread in the dark pool, and he always felt that this green scene was dark green, which made people uncomfortable.

Shen Laibao pondered Fang Cai's conjecture as he walked, and as soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw his grandmother coming to look for him, "Young master, my wife is looking for you." ”

"What are you looking for me to do?"

"You......" Mama stomped her feet and sighed, "Don't always block your wife, you say you, how old is the daughter of the Hua family, you just tell her daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law, the reputation of this girl's family is going to be ruined, everyone has come to the door, and the wife is so anxious that she will cry." ”

Shen Laibao almost didn't fall, what? He said a lot of words to Hua Ling from the bottom of his heart, and she condensed such a word? No, Hua Ling is not that kind of little girl, right...... She was curious to ask herself what "daughter-in-law" meant, maybe she went back and asked the adult again, and the adult understood crookedly, thinking that he was calling Hualing daughter-in-law.

He really shouldn't have prevaricated just now, and there was a misunderstanding now.

He made up his mind and hurried to Mrs. Shen's room.

As soon as Mrs. Shen heard that he was coming, her eyes were red, and she was about to cry when she pulled him to her, Shen Laibao said, "I didn't tell Xiaohua that I wanted her to be my daughter-in-law, I mean that she is careful and kind, and she will definitely be a good partner, a good daughter-in-law and a good mother in the future, and it must be that the aunt of the Hua family heard it wrong." ”

Mrs. Shen, who had prepared a stomach of words to say to her son, immediately swallowed all the words, and this sentence was clearly explained that it was really her son? She blinked and swallowed, and the tears that welled up in her eyes dissipated, "Really? ”

"Really."

"That's good, that's good, don't mention that word in the future, you know?"

"Hmm."

Mrs. Shen rubbed her heart and was shocked again, "I told your father about this, your father went out in an urgent matter just now, and after a while, he went straight to your room to find you." ”

The injuries on Shen Laibao's body were not healed yet, and he subconsciously trembled when he heard it. He thought of the last time Father Shen beat him up without asking, and knew that if the news reached his ears this time, he would definitely be beaten. Although he can hide, it's not a way to hide, and he still has to toss in the end when he catches him.

He thought for a moment, and suddenly he wanted to make trouble in the Heavenly Palace, so he would go to find a Buddha!

The two families of Shen Hua are neighbors, and it took a lot of effort for Master Shen to say that Meng's mother moved three times, and so did Master Shen.

The ancestors of the Shen family took it as their responsibility to take the exam, but unfortunately there was no one who was talented, even if they were in business, they also respected and courteously treated scholars, and the Mingzhou Chamber of Commerce also funded major academies every year under the mention of Master Shen, just to get a little bit of the fragrance of books. Later, when he heard that the Hua family, a scholarly family in the state, chose a new home, he kept people watching, and as soon as the Hua family bought the house, he immediately bought the land next to it.

But this will hear that the son went to talk to other people's daughters about that kind of bastard, and the mother of the Hua family came to the door, and when she heard him, she was so angry that she was about to beat him with a whip.

Who wanted to rush to the door angrily, but saw his old mother sitting there, picking Danfeng's eyes and looking at him coldly, as if he had expected him to appear here. His legs couldn't help but weaken, silently hid the whip behind his back, and said respectfully, "Mother." ”

Old Lady Shen snorted, "What's hidden behind it?" ”

Master Shen raised his fingers and threw the whip to the side, and the person next to him was smart and hurriedly picked it up. He sneered, "Nothing. ”

"And what are you doing in Noble's room?"

"I haven't seen you for half a day, and I'm quite worried."

Shen Laibao, who was standing behind the pillar, snorted, this Master Shen really came with his mouth open, and he deserved to be a businessman who could speak well.

"Mother, why are you here?"

Old Madam Shen snorted again and said, "I heard that my grandson is good at praising people and is quite organized, so I came over." ”

Master Shen, who was bent on beating Shen Laibao, didn't have the heart to listen to what his stupid son said, but just asked casually, "Who did he praise Laibao, why did he praise it?" ”

"He praised the daughter of the Hua family next door for being kind and considerate, and she will be a friend, a wife, and a mother in the future, and she will be impeccable."

Master Shen was stunned, he wanted to say that his son was like a prodigal son, how old he was, just a wife and a mother, but after thinking about it, this was indeed said smoothly, and even the order of being a wife first and then a mother was straightened out, and he lost his temper for a while, and he felt that his son seemed to have opened his mind.

Could it be that the lotus pond is not a water ghost, but a narcissus?

It's a pity, what about Narcissus, his son is only a momentary enlightenment, if he can really be smart, he will have no regrets in his life.
