Chapter 81: The Knot

Shen Yueran hurriedly denied, "Sister-in-law, don't think nonsense, my father was wronged, Yueran doesn't believe that my father is a corrupt person, and today's events have nothing to do with what happened back then." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

"Yes." Wu Zhaorong glanced at her and muttered.

"And what about later? What did my brother do? Shen Yueran then asked.

Wu Zhaorong said, "Later, I woke him up, ate, and slept, and went to see Chong'er in the middle, and before the time came, he fell asleep." ”

Shen Yueran said secretly, it seems that Shen Rihui has indeed done nothing, since this is the case, it is necessary to find evidence.

She hesitated for a moment and said to Wu Zhaorong, "Now that it's almost time to apply, sister-in-law might as well go back to pick up Shen Zhong from the school first." I'm staring here, and with Lord Wei helping me, my brother will be fine. Although my sister-in-law relaxed her heart and waited for my brother to come home. ”

Wu Zhaorong talked with Shen Yueran, and felt a lot of relief in his heart. She thought for a moment, got up and said, "It's okay, I can't help much here, it's better to go back and take care of Chong'er first." Don't leave today, go directly to your aunt and grandmother when it's dark, and I'll clean up a room for you. ”

This is the first time Wu Zhaorong has offered to do something for her.

Shen Yueran smiled sweetly and said, "Okay, there is Sister-in-law Lao." ”

Seeing Wu Zhaorong leave, Shen Yueran decided to go to Mei's house.

When I first heard the name Zhao Anyang, I felt familiar, and later I heard that it was a dock boatman, so I was probably sure that this person was the eldest son-in-law of the Mei family.

The son-in-law of the Mei family was arrested, and the Mei family must have been anxious and uneasy, thinking about it everywhere, she went to visit at this time, and second, to see if there were any clues by the way.

She inquired about Mei's cake shop all the way, and after a while, she came to Yong'an Min Lane.

Mei's family did not close down because of Zhao Anyang, she saw Mei Cailian who was busy in the back kitchen as she wished.

Mei Cailian's eyes were red, and she had obviously cried.

As soon as the two met, Shen Yueran remembered her withdrawn nature in the past, afraid that her sudden appearance would startle her, and was thinking about how to speak, Mei Cailian didn't say a word, hugged her, and cried, "Xianggong was arrested, Xianggong was arrested......

******

Finally persuaded Mei Cailian, and the two found two pestles in the courtyard to sit down.

"The eighth day of the first month is the last day of duty at the dock, and on the morning of the ninth day of the first month, he came to Mei's house with a burden. It is fair that his contract with the dock expired, and in the future, he listened to his father's arrangement and worked in the cake shop. I heard that he didn't have to go out to run the boat in the future, and he could stay with me ****, so I was naturally very happy, but unexpectedly, this joy did not last for a day, and this morning the people from the government broke into the cake shop and took him away. ”

Mei Cailian stroked Shen Yueran's hands and sobbed, "You say, why is my life so bitter? Finally, a man was willing to marry me, and he did not dislike me, and now he is being put in prison by me. The broom star is not you, it's me......"

Shen Yueran had mixed feelings.

Goodbye Mei Cailian, Mei Cailian has changed a lot from the inside out.

No longer wearing a miserable white coat is outside, and no longer being ashamed of seeing people is inside.

Zhao Anyang's appearance gave her confidence, no longer had low self-esteem, and lived the life of an ordinary woman.

Therefore, if something really happens to Zhao Anyang this time, she is afraid that she will have to return to her previous state of isolation, and even worse.

Mei Cailian continued, "Xianggong was arrested, and I had to follow to ask for an understanding, but I was stopped by Caiyu." Cai Yu said that she was familiar with the Detective Wei of Bianjing Mansion, and it was appropriate for her to come forward to inquire first. Dad also said, it's better to leave this matter to Caiyu, I'm still a helper in the cake shop. I am not as good as picking jade outside, so I have to wait for news at home. ”

Shen Yueran's heart moved, did Caiyu also go to Bianjing Mansion to find Master Wei, why didn't she hear him mention it?

"Don't worry, it's probably just a misunderstanding," she said. When Brother Zhao came back yesterday, did he mention anything to you about the eighth day of the new year? ”

Mei Cailian said, "I mentioned that the work on the last day of the eighth day of the new year was very easy, and I sent a package to Ying Tianfu for Jin Mantang, and I came and went in less than two hours." ”

"Then does he have an impression of the person who handed over to him that day?" Shen Yueran asked again.

Mei Cailian said, "The people of the Golden Hall? Didn't hear him mention it. He had never liked to make friends, and the docks were full of people all day long, and he sometimes didn't even recognize the boatmen who went out with him, let alone the people outside. ”

This shows that Zhao Anyang and Shen Rihui do not know each other, and there is no possibility of committing crimes together.

Shen Yueran thought to herself.

"Sister Cailian, can you let me take a look at Brother Zhao's baggage?" She pleaded.

If Zhao Anyang had something to do with this case, would he pack up his baggage and leave home early the next morning, would he take something with him?

That's what she thought about, but the request was a bit abruptβ€”

Mei Cailian trusted her very much, and she got up and said, "Okay, come with me, the baggage he brought back has not been opened." ”

******

Shen Yueran was a little disappointed.

It was said to be a burden, but it was just a large cloth towel tied in a knot, and there were only a few changes of clothes in it, not even an extra handkerchief.

It's so simple.

It seems that if you want to prove Shen Rihui's innocence through Zhao Anyang's side, this road will not work.

Mei Cailian knotted the burden again, but Shen Yueran's gaze was a little straight.

Wrap the right hand around the left hand and tie a single knot, wrap the left hand around the right hand and tie a single knot, and pull it tight on both sides to form a clump.

"Fisherman's Knot." She was thoughtful.

The fisherman's knot is a kind of connecting knot, which is suitable for ropes with high friction such as cotton, linen, and chemical fiber, which is easy to tie and not easy to loosen, and has a simple structure. In her previous life, she had tied a Chinese knot and hung it in Cong Hao's car, so she paid special attention to all kinds of rope knots, but she didn't expect Mei Cailian to be able to use it freely.

Mei Cailian listened clearly.

"You call this kind of knot 'fisherman's knot', and the fisherman also knots like this, I thought that only the boatman knotted it like this." She takes it literally.

"Only the boatman knots like that? Did Brother Zhao teach you? Shen Yueran was about to move.

Mei Cailian said, "Yes." Xiang Gong is a boatman, and the first thing a boatman needs to learn is not to swim, but to tie knots. The Xiang Guild knew how to tie all kinds of knots, and taught me a lot, but I was born stupid and learned only this one. ”

Knot......

Shen Yueran's eyes lit up.

Everyone has their own way of tying knots, and Shen Rihui also said that Jin Mantang's goods have always been wrapped in red brocade and tied with forged belts, so if the package is changed or opened halfway, then the knots may be different.

Therefore, if you want to prove Shen Rihui's innocence, it is not the proof of anyone, but the knot on the package!

She changed her face and said to Mei Cailian, "Sister Cailian, you are not a broom star, you were not before, and you are not now, Brother Zhao will be released soon, believe me." ”

After saying that, she left in a hurry, leaving Mei Cailian alone. (To be continued.) )
