Chapter 54

The next day, Zhou Jin resumed his normal life as a civil servant, and got up quietly early in the morning when it was dark.

The clothes on the stove have been smoked very warm, it is what Xie Yiying put on before going to bed last night, Zhou Jin picked up the clothes and was about to put them on, when he saw a white duck embroidered on the front of the clothes that was inexplicably standing like a human, it had an orange-yellow beak, feet and webbing, and the blue clothes on its body, but it didn't wear pants, it looked very interesting, but I had never seen it, and I knew that this must be from Xie Yiying's handwriting.

After discovering that even Fantasy had four spring clothes, her daughter-in-law finally found out with her conscience and hurriedly embroidered a liner for herself.

Zhou Jin put on his clothes and felt very ironed in his heart. In the past, when he worked with his colleagues, he would hear people say that this sachet was made by his daughter-in-law, and the yarn was made by his daughter-in-law, he didn't feel anything at the time, and he didn't know what these people meant, but when he had Xie Yiying, the clothes he was wearing were sewn out by Xie Yiying, and he not only felt warm in his heart when he wore it, as if he had Xie Yiying by his side, but when he listened to people again, he even wanted to compare with others, saying Look, My clothes are also embroidered by my wife's own hands, and you can see the patterns and stitches.

Well...... The latter is really incomparable. Even Xie Yiying himself knows that he is clumsy, and he is only willing to embroider underwear for him until now. Otherwise, what if you really sew a coat and let others see it? "Your Royal Highness, you ...... The ducks are so pretty. "I can't boast about that.

So when Xie Yiying woke up, his surroundings were empty, and Xie Yiying still maintained his inertia to touch his side, but even Zhou Jin's temperature had cooled down.

She pulled up the quilt to cover her face and rolled on the bed. Ah, I'm not used to it.

During the Chinese New Year, the two of them did live too comfortably, although most of the time they actually just did their own things, Zhou Jin looked at his news and did his plan, thanked Yiying for holding his cat and calculating his own accounts, the two of them were in the same room but did not interfere with each other, and did not say a word, but there was a vague tacit understanding between each other, and it was a silent companionship.

Xie Yiying also felt that this kind of life was too good for a moment, the sun was spreading all over the ground through the window, even in winter, it was warm, and the fragrance of plum blossoms was still flowing in the house, she had just finished a general ledger, Fantasy raised her tail like a little princess, and stepped on those colorful spots of light around the ground.

She originally thought that this kind of life was good enough, earning money, buying bags, raising cats, and how long life was true, but that's it, let alone now...... As soon as I looked up, I could see Zhou Jin who was doing things seriously. Together, it's wonderful.

When Geng Ming came back, it was already noon, Xie Yiying wrapped a pure white fox fur, and was squatting at the door of Zhou Jin's study to build a three-dimensional Donald duck with snow.

"Ma'am."

"Coming back?" Xie Yiying was smoothing the tip of his tail, wiping his hands with a handkerchief and standing up, seeing that Geng Ming's appearance was probably running around all morning, so he ordered someone to come over with a bowl of ginger soup first.

Geng Ming didn't shirk it, and after a brief thanks, he talked about the things he found out and explained it to Xie Yiying succinctly.

As she expected, Aunt Wang did go out three months ago, to pray for blessings in a temple in the suburbs, at that time, there was no New Year's Festival, so the temple was not lively, and the wing house specially built for the female benefactor in the backyard was only lived by her for two days.

In order to confirm the authenticity of this news, Geng Ming went to the temple on a special trip, and the pilgrims in the temple were recorded. He also asked the little novice in the temple if there was anything else going on in the temple in those days, and the little novice thought for a while and said, "It seems that it was during that period of time, when the senior brother was keeping vigil, he saw a fire in the forest behind the temple. "The forest is right next to the backyard wing where the female dependents live.

In this way, things are even clearer.

During the conversation, Qingmei had already brought a big bowl of hot ginger soup. Xie Yiying knew that Geng Ming had been running around the city and outside the city all morning, and he definitely didn't have time to eat anything, so he asked Qingmei to go to those who ate again to temporarily pad his stomach. Geng Ming was about to excuse himself, but Qingmei took out a plate of dim sum from the food box as if she was juggling, "Where is the lady you order?" ”

Geng Ming looked at Qingmei in surprise, but Qingmei had already looked away.

Xie Yiying didn't pay attention to the subtle changes between the two of them, and only pondered what Geng Ming had found out.

If it is assumed that Aunt Wang did go to a private meeting with a man in those two days, and secretly married a bead at that time, then the starting point must be on that man.

That man must have been the one she knew before she married into Xie Fu. I remember hearing my mother say that Aunt Wang's father was a teacher before his illness, and such a family, although he could not raise her very knowledgeable, but there would never be many opportunities to go out and socialize with men, so that person must be from the same village as him, so that there would be daily contact and contact, and would not cause others to gossip.

According to the few sides of Aunt Wang, guess her preferences, she is a beautiful girl, there is a lot of room for choice, and her vision will not be too bad. My father is a teacher, and Aunt Wang must look down on those who are not educated. The relationship will not cause criticism, and the person's age and appearance should match her. And being able to choose Aunt Wang, and having an affair with her after she married as a concubine, that person's family character can be seen.

After thinking about it so far, the appearance of the man can be roughly outlined.

Xie Yiying raised her eyes and wanted to talk to Geng Ming, but saw that Geng Ming was eating bread sullenly.

"Huh? Wife? ”

As soon as Xie Yiying's voice came out, Geng Ming was choked and coughed all of a sudden.

"What's the matter, what's the hurry?" Xie Yiying didn't know why, I thought he was hungry, and I thought it was funny.

Finally stopped coughing, Geng Ming wiped his mouth with the back of his hand, and returned to normal, "Please Madame, please." ”

"You go to Aunt Wang's village to find such a man, who is in his early twenties, a scholar, and also took the imperial examination a few years ago, but ...... Didn't get in. He...... It's very white, the family is not good, there is no money, but the clothes must be washed and clean. He didn't live in the village for a while last year, and he had a certain relationship with Aunt Wang's father, so he probably ...... Formerly his student. ”

Although it is all speculation, but after deducing it step by step, the image obtained is very concrete.

Geng Ming was surprised when he heard it, all the Madame knew was that this man had had an affair with Aunt Wang, how could she guess it in such detail, as if she was portraying this person after knowing about him.

However, he didn't doubt her, he believed that the Fourth Highness could come to such a conclusion, so the Fourth Imperial Concubine could naturally do it.

"Yes."

"Also, if you go to check on that Dr. Wang again, there must be something wrong with him. He used to be a doctor, but for some reason he started drinking heavily, it was an alcoholism and addiction, and it must have lasted for a long time. That's why he cut off the reaction so obviously after quitting drinking. Xie Yiying could see from the trembling of his hands and the change in his expression after Zhou Jin approached that day that he had a physiological reaction to quit drinking, which was so obvious that it was impossible for him to do acupuncture now. A doctor who can't practice medicine...... What else can there be besides being greasy.

"Yes." Geng Ming still agreed neatly. He didn't know how the princess knew this, but he believed her and listened to her.

Xie Yiying thought about it and felt that if these two people were found out, the rest would just be pushed down, and it would not be a problem. There was nothing else to explain to Geng Ming, so he hummed and went back to build her snowman.

Geng Ming stood there and waited again, not understanding why Xie Yiying had such a look on his face. She seemed to be getting closer and closer to the truth, and she could find out about Aunt Wang's conspiracy and clear her mother's innocence, but she didn't seem happy.

Xie Yiying hummed two lines of the song quite softly, which Geng Ming had never heard:

"Zhangtai Liu, Zhangtai Liu.

Is the past green and the present still there?

Even though the long strip seems to hang down like the old,

You should also break the hands of others. ”
