Princess Pingtai glanced at Xu Qirong with a cold expression, and Mama Gui hurriedly said, "The old slave went out to see what was going on." ”

Xu Qirong was a little anxious in his heart, he couldn't wait to run out, and the bad premonition in his heart became heavier and heavier. Qiu Nong quietly pulled Xu Qirong's sleeve, also with a worried face.

Master Xu Si also heard the noise outside, his heart sank, and he reached out to pull Xu Qirong to his side with worried eyes, and gently patted the top of Xu Qirong's head, comforting him for a while.

When Mama Gui came back, she saw Mama Gui's ugly face: "In Cuiwei Lake, a girl drowned." Just happened to be caught by the aquatic plants, just now Brother Shao and Brother Zhan were playing Keju in the garden, accidentally kicked into the lake, and only saw the corpse when the people fished for Keju. ”

Xu Qirong's face changed, and then Mama Gui glanced at Xu Qirong with a complicated expression, and said in a dumb voice: "Listen to the maids-in-law, look at the appearance, it is the moon picking in Fenghua Courtyard." ”

It's the moon!

Xu Qirong felt that his eyes were dark, and he became dizzy, and finally relieved himself. Qiu Nong's face turned even pale, and he decided in his heart that if he hadn't gone home to take care of his mother and let Caiyue do the thing of spying on his master, he was afraid that Caiyue would not end up like this.

Master Xu frowned at the moment: "Is it the girl who is unclear with Brother You?" It's clean when it's dead! Then he turned his head to Princess Pingtai and Xu Qijin and Xu Qirong sisters and said, "The dead are unlucky, and it is the moment before this Double Ninth Festival." Mother and two sisters stayed here so as not to be bumped into by bad luck. The son will go out to see what is going on, he should report to the official, and he should collect the corpse. ”

After speaking. looked at Xu Qirong and said, "There is a girl missing from Sister Rong's room." Let's see if you buy one from the outside, or pick one directly from the family to top! ”

Xu Qirong was so angry that his chest ached. Cai Yue disappeared after entering Shui Yue Xuan, and now the corpse appeared in Cuiwei Lake, saying that this matter has nothing to do with the people of Shui Yue Xuan, she doesn't believe a word!

Coupled with Xu You's impatience today, he pulled people to search Shui Yuexuan, and Mrs. Qiao had an attitude of being out of sight, and it was obvious who Caiyue's death was related to.

Xu Qirong's eyes were red when he looked at Master Xu, and the whole person was tense, as if he was about to explode in the next moment. Xu Qijin saw it in his eyes. I was surprised in my heart, but I quietly protected Xu Qirong in my arms. It looked like Xu Qirong was being frightened and she was appeasing, but in fact, she used eight points of strength to pull Xu Qirong and asked her not to act rashly.

Master Xu Si's face sank violently, and his eyes revealed disbelief.

Master Xu had already saluted Princess Pingtai, and after Princess Pingtai nodded, he strode out of Lanzhi Courtyard to deal with the aftermath of Caiyue.

Xu Qijin loosened his arm a little, who knew this loosening. Xu Qirong rolled his eyes and fainted.

Xu Qirong was just angry for a while, and he just fainted, and everyone didn't have time to pinch him. I've already woken up.

Master Xu Si was rare and reliable, and he didn't ask Xu Qirong how he was now, Xu Qirong woke up. Just said: "Caiyue is a scorching maid after all, and the maid of our little lady in the fourth room is dead." It's not the turn of an uncle in a big house to deal with it. Is it an autopsy to investigate the murderer, or is it to be buried in the ground. It's better for me to go in person. ”

Xu Qirong nodded, and said with a blushing face: "I'm going to see her." ”

Mama Gui's face was a little ugly, and she opened her mouth to persuade: "Fifth Miss mourns, the corpse doesn't know how long it has been soaked, the whole person has swelled several times, the old slave just looked at it from a distance and felt strange and scary, it is better not to approach such a delicate little lady as Miss Five." ”

When Xu Qirong heard this, her face became even more ugly, when she couldn't find Caiyue before, she thought that Caiyue might suffer some sins and suffering, but she didn't expect to suffer such a big sin.

Xu Qirong pulled Xu Si's sleeve: "Daddy." ”

Why Caiyue died, Master Xu Si also knew in his heart, although he didn't want his little daughter to witness such a terrifying scene, but he didn't want his little daughter to bear a burden, a regret and a guilt in his heart.

After thinking about it, he agreed: "You can do your best to be a master and servant at a glance from a distance, and burn more paper money during the New Year's holidays in the future, so that she can live more comfortably below!" Other things, there is a daddy here! ”

Xu Qirong's nose was sore, and he was about to shed tears, but he finally held back. The sentence "Daddy is here" seems to have smoothed out the grievances and unwillingness of the two worlds at once.

Princess Pingtai sighed imperceptibly, shook her head at Mama Gui, didn't stop her anymore, said "do evil", and got up and went to the study, a string of Buddhist beads, a futon, a few wisps of sandalwood, and an obscure scripture.

Master Xu Si took Xu Qirong and walked to Cuiwei Lake, Xu Qijin was about to follow, who knew that after walking a few steps, he saw Master Xu Si stop, turned around and ordered: "Sister Jin doesn't have to follow, the day of the Du family's dowry gift is not long, Sister Jin concentrates on preparing what she should prepare." ”

"But......" Xu Qijin glanced at Xu Qirong with an angry and sad face.

Master Xu Si waved his hand: "Go, with Daddy, your sister can't suffer." Besides, the dead are filthy after all, and Jin'er is light, so if you can't see it, don't see it! ”

"Sister, let's go back to Fengheyuan!" Xu Qirong reluctantly spoke, his voice dry and astringent.

Xu Qijin had no choice but to turn around and turn in the direction of Fenghe Courtyard.

When Master Xu Si and Xu Qirong rushed to the edge of Cuiwei Lake, Master Xu had already stopped the riots of the people, and the masters were afraid of bad luck and hid in their own yards. Even those who came to inquire about the news only dared to shrink their heads and stand far away and did not dare to approach.

Xu Qirong's eyes were good, and he was still seven or eight feet away, and he had already recognized the clothes on Caiyue's body. Because the maids in Fenghua Courtyard were bought from outside, the clothes of the maids in Fenghua Courtyard were not received from the public middle school, but Xu Qirong bought them with his own money, wearing the clothes of the maids in Fenghua Courtyard, and there was only one maid in Fenghua Courtyard who disappeared, and there was no doubt about the identity of the deceased.

Xu Qirong bit his lower lip to death.

After approaching a distance of five or six zhang again, Master Xu Si refused to let Xu Qirong move forward.

Cai Yue was lying on the ground, her face was calm, her face was blistered white and blue, her hair was wrapped with dark green aquatic plants, and there was some mud on her seven orifices.

Fourth Master Xu didn't look at Master Xu, handed Xu Qirong to the maid, strode forward, and asked, "Who fished people up?" ”

Immediately, two mothers-in-law stepped forward.

Fourth Master Xu frowned and asked, "Is there a wound on the deceased?" ”

The two mothers-in-law hurriedly said, "The old slave looks like he has no wounds...... But who dares to take a closer look! ”

Only then did Master Xu look at Master Xu: "When will you arrive?" ”

Master Xu looked stunned and frowned: "Anyway, this is the maid who is waiting in the young lady's room, how can you let outsiders come to check?" I have already asked my subordinates to take my post to report to the government, and after the government people come to confirm, they will take a thin coffin and let people pull them out of the city and bury them! ”

Master Xu's words, Xu Qirong could hear it clearly from two feet away, his face was full of anger, but in the end he was stopped by Qiu Nong. What can she do now? Could it be that it was because of Caiyue's own words to pay attention to the whereabouts of Master Xu and Miss Xu Si that he ended up like this? Not only will it not avenge Caiyue, but it will put itself in a difficult situation.

Master Xu Si originally had the intention to insist on seeking justice for Caiyue, but he couldn't let her go so unclearly, maybe he would have a reputation for not doing anything clean, but after hearing Master Xu's words, he hesitated again.

Although he is not a director, he also knows that no matter which big family's maid is gone, he will never take the initiative to find a maid to conduct an autopsy, especially the maid next to the unmarried little lady.

Master Xu glanced at Fourth Master Xu: "Since the fourth brother is here, let the fourth brother take care of it, and I will go back to Shuiyuexuan first." ”

Fourth Master Xu was entangled, and he didn't look at Master Xu, and let Master Xu leave. The suspicion of his life experience and the suspicion of Master Xu made Master Xu Si not know how to face this brother who had been called for more than 20 years for a while.

Qiu Nong pulled Xu Qirong's sleeve, Xu Qirong thought about it, turned his head to Yu Xia and said: "You go to Fenghua Courtyard to invite Mrs. Ye, ask her if it is inconvenient, if it is convenient, come over, and you don't need her to come forward in person, just give her words and guide her mother-in-law." ”

Mrs. Ye is the young lady of the merchant of the witch doctor family, and she is also the wife of the divine doctor Ye Lin, so she naturally understands medical skills. Since you know medicine, you should know a little about autopsy. Since it's not good to ask the servants, it's okay to let Mrs. Ye instruct the mother-in-law to check Caiyue.

She didn't believe that Caiyue would fall into the lake and drown.

Master Xu Si hesitated a little, walked to Xu Qirong's side in a few steps, and said, "Mrs. Ye is not in good health, is it inappropriate to call someone over like this?" ”

Xu Qirong shook his head: "If it is not suitable, she will open her mouth to refuse." ”

The sky has darkened while speaking, and Cuiwei Lake, which is usually soft, looks a little eerie and terrifying because of Caiyue's corpse. Those people who were looking for news from afar or watching the excitement had already swarmed away, but the two mothers-in-law who fished up Caiyue couldn't leave, huddled together and whispered to strengthen their courage.

Fourth Master Xu turned to them and said, "Go get a few lanterns." ”

The two mothers-in-law ran away as fast as if they had been pardoned.

The two mothers-in-law hadn't come back yet, and Mrs. Ye came over first, probably because it was inconvenient to see the female corpse, and Doctor Ye didn't go along. It was still early autumn, and Mrs. Ye had already put on a cloak of rabbit fur, walking like a weak willow supporting the wind, and Yu Xia was carrying a red lantern to follow.

Qiu Nong couldn't stand it when he saw the lantern, tears clicked and clicked, the lantern was still on Tanabata, and the maids of Fenghua Courtyard gathered together to make their own lanterns. There are few things in Fenghua Courtyard, and the maids are skillful, so they have made a lot of such lanterns, and sent some to the top and bottom of the house. Akino has one hanging in his own house! (To be continued......)
