Time flies, and before you know it, it's the end of the year. Wutong Street is crowded with people buying New Year's goods from morning to night, and the Zhao family shop in it is of course overcrowded.

"Shen Zhutou, you're here!" As soon as Zhao Yongzhong saw Shen Lan, he hurriedly greeted him. It's just that there is really no vacancy in Zhao's shop, so he said: "I am still wronged that you go to the courtyard to sit first, and I will serve you good tea!" ”

Shen Lan smiled: "Uncle Zhao, don't be busy yet. I'm not here for dinner, I have something to say to Siniang, is she there? ”

Zhao Yongzhong replied: "Isn't it the end of the year?" Siniang said that she should treat the guys, so she gave them some New Year's goods. She has been helping to distribute New Year's goods in Baiweitang these days. Why don't I have the guy call her back? ”

Shen Lan hurriedly said: "Don't bother, I just have something to go to the north of the city next morning, so let's go to her by the way." ”

After that, Shen Lan didn't linger much, and turned around and planned to leave.

How could the enthusiastic Zhao Yongzhong let Zhao Siniang's good friend and the head of the government return empty-handed, and he was busy leaving him for lunch. Seeing that Shen Lan insisted on refusing to stay, he asked the guy to go to the deli shop next door and fetch a freshly grilled roast duck, packed it together with shredded green onions, dough and secret sauce and stuffed it to Shen Lan.

Zhao Yongzhong said with a smile: "Shen Zhutou, this is a little bit of our family's heart, so don't shirk it anymore." ”

It's just nothing else, Shen Lan still loves to eat Zhao Siniang's roast duck, and just planned to buy it later to go back to satisfy her hunger, but she didn't expect Zhao Yongzhong to send it to her.

"Then thank you Uncle Zhao." Shen Lan took the roast duck with a smile and asked again, "I see that there is a shop on the street that is run by a foreigner who has been closed." I heard that I was returning to my hometown for the New Year. This year, Uncle Zhao plans to spend the New Year in Youdu, or go back to Jinghai? ”

"Naturally, it's back to Jinghai, but it's still early. In two days, I will return to my hometown in two days. Zhao Yongzhong said that it was still early, but in fact, he didn't feel early at all.

It's the twenty-sixth of the lunar month, and every household in Zhaojia Village will kill New Year's pigs at this time in previous years, and his old house is naturally no exception. In addition to leaving a few catties of pork from killing pigs to eat, most of the rest will be sent to the second room and the eldest sister's house in the town, and a small part can be sold for yourself. The bazaar at this time was full of people buying and selling pork. A lot of people get together to bargain, the scene is not too lively, and it feels fun to think about it. Now they are in a foreign land. Although the market outside the shop is far more prosperous than Changle Town, he just finds it difficult to fit in, and he feels very uncomfortable.

If you want to talk about this Shen Lan, in fact, he is also a foreigner like Zhao Yongzhong. It's only been a few months since I came to Fucheng. And the reason why he was able to come here also has something to do with Zhao Siniang.

A few months ago, after Shen Lan heard from Zhao Siniang that Zhao Qiao's mother and daughter were going to murder his own sister Shen, he hurriedly asked his mother to visit Shen in Wen's mansion and remind her to beware of Zhao Chengqing, while he himself immediately went to investigate.

He first went to Fucheng in person, and found that there was indeed a "Changzhi County Wangjiatun Sun Family" who had bought arsenic, and the appearance of this Sun family, according to the Wen family's concierge, was indeed Zhao Qiao's mother, Zhao Chengqing, who had been in and out of Wen Mansion frequently recently. At the same time, he also learned through the porter. This Zhao Qiaoshi had come to visit Zhao Chengqing the day before, and stayed for a while before leaving.

In fact, these alone cannot prove that Zhao Chengqing intended to murder his mother. It is even more impossible to arrest Zhao Chengqing in this way. But who is Shen Lan? In his opinion, these are enough, as for the evidence, just arrest Zhao Chengqing's slut and torture him.

However, just when he opened the joint and visited with a group of brothers, the Wen Mansion was about to drag Zhao Chengqing out, but he was surprised to learn that Zhao Chengqing had just died of a sudden illness. Joke! The big living person who was still out of the world the day before was gone, but after a few hours, it was gone, what kind of sudden illness became like this? Sounds! I have to say that this set of arguments is really difficult to win people's trust. Whether others believe it or not, Shen Lan doesn't know, anyway, he doesn't believe it.

So, after hearing that Zhao Chengqing was swept away by the grass and thrown to the mass grave outside the city as soon as he died, Shen Lan immediately went there to investigate. However, he turned over the mountain several times, but failed to find Zhao Chengqing's body. From this, it is almost certain that Zhao Chengqing is cheating on death.

How can Shen Lan, who hates hard to peace, be willing to let Zhao Chengqing get away with it? He knew very well that Zhao Chengqing could cheat to death in the inner house deep in the courtyard, not to mention that the Wen family was all involved, but at least it was definitely inseparable from the hands of some people in the Wen family. So, he changed the investigation to an unannounced visit, and after he secretly investigated in many ways, it was finally confirmed that Zhao Chengqing was sold to the lowest kiln in the hidden capital.

In Shen Lan's opinion, such an ending is more relieving than killing Zhao Chengqing with a knife, so he doesn't plan to clean her up again. But Zhao Qiaoshi, as Zhao Chengqing's accomplice, has not yet received the punishment he deserves, which is really infuriating, and he feels the need to teach this old pious woman a lesson.

At this moment, Shen Lan received an order from the government office. On the surface, it was said that the arrest of the former government was not conducive to handling the case, and he was removed from his post for investigation, so he was transferred to take over. But someone above hinted to Shen Lan that he should be on an errand and stop dwelling on the affairs of the Wen Mansion.

Shen Lan, who had been on duty for many years, naturally understood the depths, so he accepted the man's reminder with kindness, and gave up his plan to go to Zhao Qiao's bad luck.

But after not wanting to come to Fucheng on an errand, he met Zhao Siniang many times when he was patrolling the streets. For this little girl who is related to Zhao Chengqing, he didn't have the slightest bad feeling, on the contrary, he still had some appreciation, so he often came to take care of her family's business. came and went, not only did she get acquainted with Zhao Siniang, but even the rest of her family became familiar with her.

Today, he occasionally ran into an acquaintance he met in Jinghai, and heard about a case that happened in Jinghai not long ago. Such a bad case happened in Jinghai, which has excellent public security, and he asked a few more words under curiosity, only to know that this case had a lot to do with Zhao Siniang's family, so he immediately rushed to inform Zhao Siniang.

At this time, Shen Lan saw Zhao Yongzhong's homesick face, and he could guess that he was very worried about the people and things in his hometown, and he couldn't help but hesitate a little in his heart, or tell him the case directly through Siniang?

has been with Zhao Siniang's family for a long time, and Shen Lan naturally knows that it is not Zhao Yongzhong who is really in charge of her family, but the little girl Zhao Siniang. It's useless to talk to Zhao Yongzhong about everything, you have to make a decision with Zhao Siniang.

However, Shen Lan thought that the relevant personnel in that case were all close relatives of Zhao Yongzhong, and the case was relatively urgent, so it was necessary for Zhao Yongzhong, the parent, to know as soon as possible and respond as soon as possible. So, he told Zhao Yongzhong in detail about the case that happened in Changle Town. (To be continued.) )
