Chapter 111 Hexagram Gold
At the end of the year, the weather was bad, sometimes the wind was howling, and the bare branches were blown and whined all night, like weeping; From time to time, the cold rain was noisy, and the sound of dripping rain knocked on the roof, one after another, and the noise was all night.
On the twenty-fifth day of the lunar month, it began to snow.
The snow was covered with snow, and it couldn't stop anymore, and it fell overwhelmingly.
Lu Luo is most afraid of the cold, she will lie on the window of the house, and watch Lu Fu in the yard through the window lattice and take the maids to play in the snow or clear the snow.
Lu Fu likes to wear red, red as blood, which falls in the white snow, which is particularly scorching and beautiful.
"Auntie, the second lady of the Guangdehou Mansion is here." The maid on the second door came in and said.
Wen Shi sat opposite Lu Luo to do needlework, and when he heard this, he immediately put down the work in his hand and said busily: "Please come in." β
Lu Luo and his mother glanced at each other, and they were quite surprised.
At this time of the Chen family, it is impossible to start a lawsuit, and the second lady is the daughter-in-law of the Hou Mansion, and she came to the door before, so there must be something important.
The yard was still chattering, and Lu Fu took a snowball and smashed the maid to play.
The maids knew that this girl was informal, and they were not polite to her, so they threw the snowball over.
When the second lady Chen entered the door, she was hit on the shoulder by a snowball that she didn't know about the maid, and the second lady was startled and almost slipped her foot.
"Stop messing around." Wen had already taken Lu Luo to stand on the Danqi at the door, and then scolded the maids, and personally got off the Danqi to greet Second Lady Chen.
"Are you alright?" Wen Shi hugged Mrs. Chen, "These children are like monkeys. Can't hold back, let you see the smile. β
"It's okay, I just didn't pay attention, I almost slipped." Second Mrs. Chen said, with a shallow smile on her face. She wasn't angry, she was just preoccupied.
At this moment, how can Second Mrs. Chen be angry with her kung fu?
Wen invited Second Mrs. Chen into the East Second Room, and Lu Luo gave Lu Fu a look and asked her to take the maids to the back garden to play, and don't stay in this yard again.
Lu Fu hasn't played enough. I went immediately.
Lu Luo casually covered his face frozen by the cold wind. I went back to the house.
Second Mrs. Chen is here to deliver silver.
"The old lady must be sent by me a year ago, this is a promise to Miss Lu, and I dare not break my promise." Second Mrs. Chen said, and then put the silver ticket in a small box. It was placed on the kang table. Push it to Wen.
Wen Shi was surprised: "The old lady is too polite!" It's just a kid's joke. How can you take it seriously? Get it back! β
With that, Wen pushed the money back to Second Mrs. Chen.
The Chen family is facing a lawsuit and has a grudge. It is normal for the He clan to be resentful and not have the heart to give Lu Luogua money.
On the contrary, they specially sent someone to send it, and there was a lot of article.
Wen didn't dare to accept it, for fear of getting involved in the Chen family's affairs. Lu Luo is not just a warlock, she is also Wen Lexi's granddaughter, the Chen family came to the door before, isn't there this consideration?
Wen was worried about being a burden to his uncle.
"That's as it should be." Second Mrs. Chen didn't push it anymore, anyway, it all fell on the Wenfu Kangji, and she wouldn't take it back.
"Fifth girl, your hexagram is really accurate, the old lady said that she has been obsessed all her life, and it is the first time she has met such a powerful physiognomy master. If we had met five girls ten years earlier, it would not have left our family Eleven Lang in the dry ground. Second Mrs. Chen said, tears welled up.
Wen hurriedly handed her a handkerchief.
Second Mrs. Chen took the veil and wiped away her tears.
"We've all heard about it, it's really tragic, the murderer must be brought to justice, so that the spirit of the eleventh prince in the sky can be applied." Wen comforted Second Lady Chen.
"Yes, we won't give up until we find the murderer." Second Mrs. Chen said, "It's a pity that the Meng family is very cunning and eloquent, and they fall into black and white, but they refuse to admit that their family killed someone." β
"People are dug up from their Zhuangzi, and they can't be denied, don't worry." Wen said.
Second Mrs. Chen's eyes were wet again: "Mrs. Lu, you don't know how hateful the Meng family is!" They kept saying that if they killed someone, how could they bury their bones in their own Zhuangzi and provoke suspicion? β
That's not right. If it hadn't been buried in their family's village and guarded day and night, how could they have not been found for ten years? Lu Luo interjected, "It is estimated that it has been almost ten years, and they felt that the Chen family would not chase after them anymore, so they relaxed their vigilance and were found by the Chen family." β
What if the bones are buried in the ground, rainy days or other things, and accidentally turned out?
Only when he hid in his own Zhuangzi and sent his henchmen to keep an eye on it and prevent people from approaching, he concealed it.
As to why the bones were not burned, this is a matter of concept. In this era, cremation of bones was not yet popular. When a person dies, the first thought is to bury it, and he will not try to burn it, probably because he is afraid that it will burn, and the smell of the corpse will spread too far and be exposed immediately.
It's better to bury it.
With the previous incineration technology, the bones may not be burned, and after the burning, the remaining dried corpses still have to be buried, so the murderers will not do more.
"That's what the girl said!" Second Mrs. Chen was very grateful to Lu Luo for speaking fairly, "We also argue like this. But there is no real evidence in the court, so I don't know when it will be a head! The old lady also wants to invite the fifth girl to go and divinate for us. β
"How is this divination?" Wen Shi was puzzled, "Do you want to divinate the location of the murderer?" β
"Exactly." Second Mrs. Chen said, "We don't know who the Meng family did. However, the fifth girl said that as long as it happened, she could make a general divination. Such a headless fly is ineffective, and Eleven Lang is not blind. If the five girls are merciful and helpful, we will reward the girls with 30,000 taels of silver. β
Wen immediately gave Lu Luo a look.
This matter is very important, if Lu Luo agrees, he will involve Wen Lexi.
The government is by no means so simple.
If the person is dead, his innocence will have to be proved sooner or later, and the case will be interrogated slowly, the truth will always be revealed, and he will not be able to intervene.
Wen wanted Lu Luo to stay out of the matter, why didn't Lu Luo know?
Lu Luo is the fiancΓ©e of Yan Xun, the Marquis of Zhongwu, and her uncle is Wen Lexi, and there are many power entanglements in between. One carelessness will make Uncle and Yan Xun very passive.
Lu Luo didn't want to cause trouble to his uncle, and he didn't want to owe Yan Xun favors.
What's more, Lu Luo can't count!
"Second Madam, we warlocks pay attention to 'one thing and one hexagram'. It's already been calculated, and it's hard to calculate it again and again, and I can't help it. Lu Luo said.
This is not Lu Luo's prevarication, but a warlock's taboo.
Some sects taboo "three trigrams a day", that is, no more than three trigrams in a day; Some taboo "one thing and one hexagram", one thing cannot be counted repeatedly, and it is not allowed to count the second time.
Chen Shiyilang's case, Lu Luo has already calculated it once; When it comes to counting the murderer, she finds it difficult to calculate accurately. She also wanted to help the Chen family, but she really couldn't do anything.
(To be continued......)
PS: I'm sorry that the second shift is late, but I usually have to rest and adjust on weekends, so everyone has to wait for a long time. Tomorrow is Monday, and there is a good life of five watches~~
