Yang Yun still thought in her heart that she needed a lot of lamp oil to set fire this time, and as long as the murderer was in the grocery store in the village, the lamp oil she bought would definitely be able to be found. Because a pound of lamp oil can be used for a long time, and the peasant family goes to bed early at night, who will be like the Yang family, lighting two oil lamps to read books and read accounts at night. Although she had some clues, Yang Yun still prayed silently in her heart, hoping that the murderer of arson was the lamp oil bought in Zhoujia Village.
"Okay, Xiao Yun, I'll help you ask tomorrow." Dabao took this to his heart's content.
"Brother Dabao, after dawn, when everyone goes to the workshop to help clean up the mess, then ask Aunt Wednesday, when there is no one in the grocery store, it will not be discovered by the murderer." Although Uncle Wednesday's home is very close to the workshop, the location of his family's grocery store is far away from the workshop, and the ancestral hall in the village is built in the lower part of the village. Uncle Wednesday's grocery store is located close to the entrance of the village, and most of the people who live in the village are people with foreign surnames, such as the Wang family, the Yang family, the Li family and Dr. Xu, as well as Kong Zhongkan, who later came to settle down, and the houses built are relatively close to the entrance of the village.
"Okay, I'll be careful tomorrow."
"Others, after dawn, let's go to the workshop to help clean up the mess." Before Uncle Li left, he stuffed a package to Yang Yun, Yang Yun touched the package, and knew that it contained silver, and the bag of silver was about dozens of taels, which should be all the silver deposits of the Li family. Yang Yun remembered the kindness of the Li family, the Li family is really a credible person, and he is also wholeheartedly devoted to the Yang family, Yang Yun really didn't misunderstand the Li family at the beginning.
But Yang Yun didn't accept the silver, and returned the silver to Uncle Li, Yang Yun told Uncle Li that when he wanted to use it, he would ask him to get it. Now the two families can't put all the money into the workshop. The poultry farm by the river still needs to be invested in construction, and if there is an emergency, there is no silver to save it. Besides, if there is a shortage of silver, there is still plum wine to sell. After the workshop was cleaned up, Yang Yun planned to assess how much silver was needed to prepare the newly built workshop, and if there was a shortage of silver, he would sell the green plum wine.
After dawn, the two families went to the workshop early, when Yang Yun went to the workshop, the workshop already had villagers helping to dismantle the burned beams, Yang Yun saw that everyone came to help so early, and was very moved.
Yang Yun arrived for a while, and Zhou Lizheng also came. Li Zheng saw the situation of the big house burned down, and finally asked the villagers to demolish the entire big house, Li Zheng also said that in the future, next to the ancestral hall, no more houses are allowed to be built, and a vacant land should be set aside around the ancestral hall, so as to save the occurrence of foreign intentions and implicate the ancestral hall. The fire caught fire at night, and the ancestral hall was not burned, and it was already blessed by the ancestors.
The villagers demolished the big house, the tables, chairs and cloths in the big house were all burned to ashes, and the account books were also burned.
It took the villagers a day to demolish the entire house, and now the former workshop is only a pile of broken bricks and tiles. Yang Yun looked at the pile of dismantled bricks and tiles, and couldn't come back to her senses for a long time.
"Sister, sister, what's wrong with you?" Yang Yong called Yang Yun several times, but she didn't respond, so he had to walk to Yang Yun's side and pull Yang Yun.
"No, it's fine." Yang Yun was pulled by Yang Yong, and then she came back to her senses.
"It's getting dark, let's go home." The big house has been demolished, and the villagers have gone home, and now only the Yang family and the Li family are still at the scene, Yang Yong saw that it was getting dark, and wanted to call Yang Yun home.
Originally, Yang Yun wanted to invite the villagers to eat at home, but everyone knew that the Yang family's workshop was burned down, so they were embarrassed to disturb the Yang family, so they all politely declined.
"I want to go to Lizheng for a while, and then go home later." Yang Yun still has something to look for.
"Then I'll go with you." It was getting dark, and Yang Yong was not worried that Yang Yun would go to Lizheng's house by himself.
"Hmm." Brother and sister Yang Yun asked Grandpa and Uncle Li to go home first, and the two went to Lizheng's house together.
"Uncle Lizheng." When Yang Yun's brothers and sisters went to Li Zheng's house, Yang Yun called Li Zheng, and Li Zheng directly took two pieces of paper to Yang Yun, which Yang Yun asked Li Zheng to help with earlier.
"I asked for you, last night the whole village helped to put out the fire, and there were five families who didn't come to help. Three of them went to visit relatives in other villages, and their neighbors were not in the village yesterday, so that their neighbors can testify. There are two other families, one is called Lai Pisan, he is a scoundrel in our village, and he usually does some things like stealing chickens and touching dogs. The remaining family is Zhou Dahai's family, and as for why Zhou Dahai's family didn't come last night, it's not clear why. ”
In the morning, Zhou Dahai's family came to help demolish the big house, and Zhou Daya also came over to ask Yang Yun, saying that the person who helped didn't have a reward, and the work was done, but there was no reward. Yang Yun only said to Zhou Daya that when things are done in a few days, she will repay the people who helped. Zhou Dahai, Thursday Niang, Yang Yun heard the name Thursday Niang, and felt very bad, not only Thursday Niang, but also Thursday Niang's family was terrible.
"Uncle Lizheng, thank you, I took this list first, let's talk about it another day." Yang Yun suddenly felt powerless, it should be a weak heart, some evidence is already obvious, but Yang Yun still hopes to use more evidence to confirm her thoughts.
"Yun girl, you ......" In fact, Li wanted to ask Yang Yun what she thought about the fire in the workshop this time, but seeing Yang Yun's sullen look, she was also very tired from cleaning up the mess of the house today, so Li Zheng didn't ask.
"Don't worry, I'm fine, I still need your help when the time comes."
"Well, if you need help, just say it."
"Thank you, Uncle Lizheng, then we'll take our leave." The Yang Yun brothers and sisters came out of Lizheng and went home directly. Back at home, Grandma and Aunt Li were cooking in the kitchen.
"Brother Dabao."
"Here we are." Li Dabao walked directly to Yang Yun and told Yang Yun what he asked in the morning.
"Aunt Wednesday said that many people have gone to buy lamp oil during the Chinese New Year recently, and the amount of money they bought is quite a lot, and some people buy one and a half catties at a time, and it is difficult to say who buys the most."
"Then do you ask, which family of people often go to buy lamp oil recently?" Yang Yun heard Li Baoda say that, and she became anxious, now lamp oil is the key evidence to solve the case.
"Asked, asked. Aunt Wednesday didn't think out at first, whose family had been buying lamp oil recently, but Sister-in-law Zhou said that Zhou Daya and Tuesday had gone to the grocery store to buy lamp oil a few times recently, and it was Sister-in-law Zhou who sold it to them, and they bought the cheapest kind of lamp oil, which was a little smelly. Dabao was a little anxious when he heard Yang Yun's tone, and hurriedly explained the rest to Yang Yun clearly.
"You stinky boy, you can't make it clear at one time, look at the girl who is in a hurry." Uncle Li saw that Dabao divided the words into several words, and Yang Yun was in a hurry, so he trained him.
"Didn't I say everything I said, I'm afraid that I didn't make it clear and missed the key things." Dabao felt quite aggrieved.
"It's okay, it's okay, I heard what Brother Da Bao said clearly. Brother Dabao, did Thursday Niang go to buy lamp oil recently. ”
"Aunt Wednesday said yes, Thursday Niang was a year ago, she bought half a catty of lamp oil, at that time Thursday Niang did not bring enough money, owed the grocery store three money, Wednesday Aunt said she remembered very clearly. Later, Zhou's sister-in-law said that Zhou Daya and Tuesday Ya only went to buy lamp oil on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year yesterday, and the two girls of the Zhou family went to buy it twice, one time to buy two catties of lamp oil. Sister-in-law Zhou said that she asked Zhou Daya a few more words at that time, but Zhou Daya only said that her mother asked her to buy it. "Ordinary people, a pound of lamp oil can be used, for several months, Thursday my mother's family bought a few pounds of lamp oil at once, no wonder Zhou's sister-in-law wants to ask more, who sees it feels strange.
When everyone heard Dabao say, they all knew in their hearts that the fire in the workshop was clearly done by Thursday Niang.
"This woman really dares to do such a thing, I'll go to her right now to settle the score." Uncle Li also guessed who set the fire, and he was angry and wanted to go to Thursday Niang to settle the score.
"Why was our family harmed by this woman three times and twice, she was harmful to people before, but now she is harming us, this time we must settle the account with her." Grandpa is also furious, this Thursday Niang's harm to the Yang family is not once or twice, Zhou Xiaohai's matter should have exposed her at the beginning, but it was a moment of soft-heartedness that made her hurt her granddaughter, and now she is harming her own workshop.
"Sister, let's go, let's settle accounts with Thursday Niang now." Yang Yun was kidnapped, and Yang Yong also knew very well why Thursday Niang was so vicious this week.
"Alas! Let's calm down. Listen to me, first of all, we didn't catch Thursday Niang on the spot, now a few catties of lamp oil is not enough to make Thursday Niang confess, and then Chow Tai Fook didn't see that it was Thursday Niang who set the fire, we are now undocumented, Thursday Niang will not admit guilt. ”
"Then what should I do, is this how I let Thursday Niang go, what if she harms us next time." When Yang Yong thought that there was no way to catch Zhou Niang now, he was filled with righteous indignation, this vicious mother-in-law couldn't just let her go.
"This matter, I'll think about it again, we have to let Thursday Niang show her feet first, and then we can find a way to catch her."
"Yun girl, how to do it." Uncle Li really wanted to know what Yang Yun's plan was.
"Don't worry, I'll think about this again, everyone has tried to endure it for the past few days, without sufficient evidence, it's best not to act rashly." Without full certainty, I can't move Thursday Niang for the time being, Yang Yun must let Thursday Niang this time, and there will be no day to turn over. (To be continued.) )
