Chapter 67: The Talking Daughter-in-law
Seeing Lin Hui approaching the deceased, the man hurriedly beckoned everyone to bring the lanterns and torches. Soon three or four officials came.
This quasi-corpse is really beautiful and lovely, and everyone rushes to move forward.
Zhao Dafu followed closely behind Lin Hui. He had already figured it out, if it was really Doctor Xiaolin's unfortunate death, wouldn't this Lin girl become an orphan girl?
Orphan Girl ...... Well, maybe there's a chance. Although he is already the eldest and not small, the children are all running all over the ground, and there is a concubine in addition to his wife, but it is not bad to have another one.
Lin Hui examined it carefully, and saw that the deceased's head was badly damaged, and it was not an exaggeration to describe it as blurred flesh and blood. Under the flickering torches, it looks even more hideous. There wasn't much blood on his body, and it was clear that he had a fatal wound on his head.
Everyone stared at Lin Hui, everyone knew something about the beginning and the end, these were brothers and sisters who depended on each other, the elder brother was unlucky, and the younger sister was too pitiful!
It's just that...... This girl is too calm.
The corpse relatives have always looked at it, and if they recognize it as their own relatives, they either cry loudly or collapse to the ground, and if they are lucky, they all leave in a hurry.
Even if they can't recognize it, they are all crying and screaming, and they are even more entangled, pulling the officials to get the living back.
Did anyone get closer and closer, and even undress the deceased?!
And those slender and agile hands don't shake at all!
If something goes wrong, it is a demon, and the officials feel a little numb in their scalps.
Lin Hui squatted down to take a look, stood up and asked, "Where did you find this?" ”
"Right ahead." He pointed not far away, "It seems that I fell from the mountain, and I was found by the farmer who was chopping wood this afternoon." ”
"This ...... Isn't it......? Zhao Dafu rubbed his hands together and asked hesitantly.
Whether it's a Kobayashi miracle doctor or not, you can give me an accurate word.
"It's not!" Lin Hui replied very cheerfully.
On the way over, Lin Hui has been thinking about this problem.
The face of the deceased must not be very clear, so should you take this opportunity to let "Lin Hui" die?
Of course, there are conveniences for the two identities, but there are also a lot of troubles, and how to deal with the aftermath in the future is also very problematic.
However, after Lin Hui thought about it carefully, he felt that he couldn't just push the boat down, Lin Hui's identity was not easy to come by, and it would be useful in the future; Second, if the deceased is identified as Lin Hui, then the real deceased may become missing, which is unfair to the deceased and his family.
No?! Zhao Dafu was a little surprised. But seeing that Miss Lin was very sure, there was no way to argue with her.
Back to the starting point, it's anonymous again.
Zhao Dafu said that his head is big.
If it looks like a poor and anonymous person, it's simple. If you leave a corpse, you can directly burn it, or bury it casually in a mass grave.
But just by looking at the clothes, you can see that this person is obviously not poor, and if you dispose of it at will, you are afraid that there will be trouble in the future.
Seeing that the moon was in the middle of the sky, it was obviously late at night, and Zhao Dafu could only send Lin Hui back first.
Lin Hui was silent all the way.
She could see that the man had not stumbled at all.
If you stumble, you won't disappear along with your belongings.
And although the slope is a little steep, it is not a cliff. If it is a misstep, in addition to the fatal wound on the head, there should be other impact injuries.
But apart from the head, the deceased only had a broken finger.
It seems that he caught the murderer, but he was forcibly broken and his finger was pulled away.
The head injury should be caused by a heavy object such as a stone or hammer in the hand.
The murderer was very powerful.
The deceased and Lin Hui were indeed dressed similarly.
Is this a coincidence?
Lin Hui didn't know.
If it wasn't a coincidence, who would want to kill Lin Hui?
Lin Hui didn't know either.
She suddenly felt a little cold.
What is even more chilling next is that many people don't seem to believe Lin Hui's statement.
The weather is getting colder and colder, and there are almost no scholars who come to Nanwu City to walk around. And there is no one in the city who has reported the loss of a similar person. Many people, including Zhao Dafu, believed that the deceased was likely to be the Kobayashi Divine Doctor, but his sister refused to admit it for some reason.
Lin Hui ignored these for the time being.
She was considering Xie Minjia's invitation.
Xie Minjia's stove will be set for three days later.
Go? Or not going?
Lin Hui didn't want to go, but there had to be a reason not to go.
"Who did your young lady invite?" Lin Hui asked the daughter-in-law who sent the post with a pleasant face, and motioned to Xiao Keer to give a reward of one or two.
The daughter-in-law combed her neat bun, her lips were thin and curled, and she smiled and spoke very neatly before speaking: "If you go back to the girl, my girl has invited the newly arrived Mrs. Anbang Hou Shizi, and this stove will be regarded as a wind for Mrs. Shizi." In addition, there are also the daughters of the Xie family, the Zhao family, the Huang family, and the Jiang family. ”
Hearing that Mrs. Anbang Hou Shizi and the daughter of the Jiang family were invited, Lin Hui completely decided not to go.
"Okay, I got it. When the time comes, if you have to be free, you will pass. ”
The daughter-in-law is the most clever in moving around the family, and when she heard Lin Hui say this, she knew that this person might not necessarily go.
pinched the reward envelope in her hand, and the daughter-in-law smiled again: "Please also ask the girl to appreciate her face, my girl is always easy to say." However, Mrs. Hou Shizi of Anbang also had a few families to pick her up before. I heard that the people who came from this capital are really exquisite, and unlike our small place, they will have a seizure if they are a little inconsiderate. ”
Saying that, the daughter-in-law leaned forward a little, looking more and more respectful, and said: "Last time, there was a girl from a merchant who happened to be unwell and never went, and Mrs. Shizi blamed her and said that she would not let her go, and the girl's shop was smashed, not to mention, even the host who invited guests was eaten. The slaves and maids came out to deliver posts, and the house repeatedly explained that they had to invite distinguished guests. ”
Lin Hui smiled: "What guests did your family invite, and how did Mrs. Shizi know?" It's not clear who goes and who doesn't, so what's the blame? People are from everyone's background, and the rules are naturally bigger. Moreover, there are false rumors. ”
The daughter-in-law seemed to be choked, paused, and lowered her voice: "Don't believe it, girl, it's not a slave who is talking nonsense, this lady is different." I heard that every time she went to someone else's house as a guest, she asked people to inquire about the background of the main house in advance, and invited some guests before deciding whether to go or not, and she often had other opinions at that time. And ......"
Saying that, the daughter-in-law hesitated for a while, her voice became lower and lower, and she continued: "I heard that when she was in the capital, she once went to someone's house for a banquet, and it happened that the main family also invited a noble girl who she had never been in good hands with. As a result, she brought a bag of caterpillars with her, and the search for the opportunity fell on the man's head, making a lot of confusion. ”
After speaking, the daughter-in-law hurriedly pretended to give herself a mouthful, and said with a smile: "The slave maid also heard what people said, and the girl only listened to it as a joke." ”
Lin Hui felt a chill in her heart.
A bag of ...... Hair...... Insect......
It's too beautiful to think about.
It's just that this lady seems to have offended herself......
