Hearing this, Nie Shuyao glanced at Song Yunfei, who was also hiding in the hay, and the two nodded at the same time, and pulled the hay skewer to their heads again.

As for Jiang Yi, he naturally became a gentleman on the beam, and he was squatting on the beam in the land temple at this time.

"Ahem!" There was another violent cough, and after a long while, I heard the old man's voice again, "Okay, let's go to the temple of the land lord to rest." ”

Then the broken gate in front of the temple was pushed open, and Nie Shuyao and Song Yunfei hid in the hay and did not move, but their eyes fell on the two people who came in.

It was an old man on crutches, with a white beard, and a well-dressed girl, who looked to be sixteen or seventeen years old, and whose poorly dressed figure could not hide her fully developed figure.

The old man came to the dilapidated clay statue of the land lord and bowed, and said: "The little old man and his granddaughter really can't walk, borrow the treasure land of the land lord for the night, and ask the land lord to forgive me, forgive me!" ”

His cautious appearance really looks like an old man who lives at the lowest level of society all year round. After talking to the land lord, he pulled a handful of hay and sat down with the support of the girl, and then put down the erhu on his back. Judging from this erhu, this ancestor and grandson are singing.

Nie Shuyao didn't think that they were ordinary singers, although the old man had a bad cough before, he never coughed again after entering the Land Temple, nor did he drink water. She didn't believe it was the help of the gods; Looking at the girl again, after sitting down from the old man, all her attention was placed on the embroidered handkerchief.

The corners of Nie Shuyao's mouth, who was behind the hay, curled up, and said in her heart: "Thrush, you finally appeared, I didn't expect you to have such a deep affection for Ding Dazhuang, I really underestimated you." ”

"Grandfather, you see there's a beautifully embroidered veil there." She pointed to the embroidered handkerchief. Said.

The mandarin duck embroidered handkerchief in the dilapidated door through a trace of moonlight illumination, looks particularly charming, the moonlight will be the little bit of dark red blood stains to cover, only to see a pair of mandarin ducks with bright feathers playing in the water, with ethereal beauty.

The old man said: "I'm afraid this is the embroidered handkerchief that everyone in the city is passing on, it turns out that the story is true." ”

The girl turned her head to look at the old man and said with a smile: "Really? There's no one here anyway. Give me this veil to use. Save yourself from being scary here! ”

"Hey. This thing has stained dead people, unknown. The old man stretched out his hand to stop him.

But as if she hadn't heard, the girl broke off the bamboo pole and took the veil in her hand. Gently caress it.

"You ......, alas!" The old man sighed heavily.

After a while, the old man seemed to feel that something was wrong, and got up with difficulty. Pack your bags, pull the girl and leave. As he walked, he said: "Your girl is good at everything, but she can't see good clothes and embroidery." The story has spread all over the city, if anyone knows that you took the embroidered handkerchief. Maybe you have wronged us in some way, so let's hurry while it's dark. ”

The girl did not refute, and lowered her eyebrows and said, "Yes." Grandfather. ”

The two of them supported each other and walked out the door, although they said it well. But there was no mention of returning the embroidered handkerchief.

"Two, did you just take someone else's things and leave?"

As he walked to the gate, Nie Shuyao's voice sounded.

The grandfather and grandson turned around weakly, and the girl stammered: "You, are you a human or a ghost?" ”

Nie Shuyao and Song Yunfei came from the hay and said with a smile: "Thrush, I didn't expect you to really come." ”

"Thrush? Who is the thrush? My name is Hong'er, and I followed my grandfather out to sing. The girl argued.

Nie Shuyao said: "If it weren't for the thrush, how could you solemnly put a bloody handkerchief that had been buried with a dead person for a few days in his arms?" ”

"I ......."

Nie Shuyao looked at the old man and said, "And you?" Are you really an old man? Do you know that this is a murderer who helped kill two people to get away with it, aren't you afraid of the prefect's board? Or do you want to be guilty of the same crime as the criminal? ”

"What? Homicide? The old man seemed startled, and hurriedly pulled out his arm, which had been seized by the thrush, as if he had known about it for the first time. And the speed of retreat is not at all what an old man who is about to do can do.

Nie Shuyao laughed when she saw this, "Thrush, do you still want to deny it?" ”

The thrush changed her lower eyebrows, raised her head, and asked, "How do you know it's me?" ”

Nie Shuyao looked at the thrush head-on, her appearance was not stunning, but she was also the kind of woman who was very attractive, and there was a charm in her eyes. Lure. The figure of the person makes her have a fight with the stunning beauty.

"Bet, bet on whether your relationship with Ding Dazhuang is so deep. Luckily, I've always had good luck! Nie Shuyao said directly.

"Humph! Luck isn't always on your side. Thrush sneered, and quickly threw something out of her package.

This thing turned out to be lime, which made Nie Shuyao and Song Yunfei hurriedly cover their mouths and close their eyes, but they were shocked in their hearts by the thrush's means, a little woman actually had such a means, and she still underestimated her.

"Haha! Wait for my revenge. ”

No sooner had the thrush heard than a muffled grunt, followed by the sound of something falling to the ground.

A gust of wind blew, and Jiang Yi's voice sounded in Nie Shuyao's ears, "Shuyao, are you okay, the lime has been blown away, you try to open your eyes." ”

Nie Shuyao's face hadn't touched the lime in the first place, but when she heard this, she slowly opened her eyes and saw the thrush that fell to the ground. and Song Yunfei who was standing in front of her, "Ah, Brother Song, are you okay?" ”

Song Yunfei smiled: "It's okay, these three indiscriminate can't do anything to me." ”

He had some lime on his back, a wide broken hat on his head, and a clean face.

Two pear vortices appeared at the corners of Nie Shuyao's mouth, and he smiled, "Thank you." ”

If Song Yunfei hadn't used her body to block the lime for her in time, maybe she would have to take a bath with oil today, it's terrible to think about.

"Hehe, what's there to be afraid of." Song Yunfei was extremely happy in his heart, and he almost grabbed Nie Shuyao's hand.

Jiang Yi coughed and said, "What should they do?" ”

Nie Shuyao glanced at the old man who was also tricked and fell to the ground, and said, "I'm afraid that the night will be long and the dreams will be too much, so feed them some sleeping pills first, and send them to the government office at dawn." ”

The next day, the three of them prepared to return to Fucheng.

But in the matter of who carries the thrush. Song Yunfei and Jiang Yi had an argument, none of them wanted to carry a thrush, especially a woman in front of Nie Shuyao, how bad the impact was.

In the end, it was Nie Shuyao who paid attention, woke up the person who was pretending to be an old man, and asked him to carry the thrush on his back.

This person is really not an old man, and he can see his makeup clearly as soon as it is dawn. In fact, he was a short, middle-aged man. That's what makes it easier. There is still the strength to carry a person.

In this way, the three of them changed their clothes and returned to the city.

Jiang Yi and Song Yunfei sent people to the mansion, and Nie Shuyao went back to the Peony Garden directly.

When she came back, she first had a detailed discussion with Shen Xinlu. Let Shen Xinlu sue Thrush as the mentor of Feng Wuya and Ruping, so as to achieve the purpose of truly clearing Feng Wuya's suspicion and mitigating Ruping's crime.

Shen Xinlu also felt that this plan was feasible, so he returned to Koi House to discuss with Nie Tianxi how to write the paper.

And Nie Shuyao is bathing and making up for sleep. This case is now over, as for the fate of everyone behind. You can only resign yourself to the fate of heaven.

Qi family. Qi Wencheng's face was particularly ugly when he came out of the hall, because his parents and elderly grandmother gave him a difficult task to complete.

If he does this, he will be able to become the head of the family, and if he does not succeed, his parents, grandmothers, who love his brother, will rather give up the head of the family to other uncles.

Qi Wen became this gnashing of teeth. hateful: "It's really eccentric, I'm also your son!" ”

But he had to do as they were told. As a descendant of the Qi family, he can't let the family business fall on the Shu branch. Shake your head hard. took his personal servant to the mansion, and the agreement with Nie Shuyao was also left behind.

Governor Yan has been very annoyed recently, he just received the real murderer sent today, and when he met Wu Shizi to come to put pressure, he inadvertently pulled off a lot of his sparse beard, but despite this, he still had to face the people who kept putting pressure on him.

"My lord, Young Master Qi is here again." The old housekeeper came to report, cautiously for fear that the prefect would come up and harm the pond fish.

"Alas! Let him in. "Governor Yan waved his hand, and he was powerless, things have to be faced after all.

Qi Wencheng had already come yesterday, and Governor Yan refused without thinking, and he didn't have any hope this time. But when he came in, he saw the smiling face of the Yan Governor's Mansion, which made him feel panicked, for fear that the prefect was going to beat him, so he was busy saluting the Yan Governor's Mansion.

Governor Yan preemptively said: "The eldest prince of Qi came just in time, if you can persuade Ruping to let her volunteer, this official is not impossible." ”

In fact, the Yan Governor's Mansion is selfish, rather than letting Wu Zhonghou Shizi take people away alive, it is better to hand them over to the Qi family to dispose of, after all, the Qi family wants Ruping to accompany Qi Wenzhai to the funeral, which is also a way to correct the law, and maybe it can win a lot of favor from the people. Anyway, there are two official words, no matter how you say it, you don't have to follow yourself.

"Thank you, sir." Qi Wencheng respectfully presented the gift.

Ruping, who was in prison, smiled happily when she saw Qi Wencheng, and willingly followed him out of the prison door.

Three days later, it was the day of the trial of the Deshenglou murder case, and Nie Shuyao and his party were ready, and they all wanted to see Shen Xinlu fighting the lawsuit. But before he could reach the door, Yongbo came with a letter. handed the letter to Nie Shuyao and left without saying a word.

Nie Shuyao pursed her lips and whispered, "Hmph, stinky old man." ”

After opening the letter, I felt heartache after reading two lines, this is the last letter written to her by Ruping.

"Miss Nie, thank you for catching the enemy for Ruping for the second son of Qi. Although Ruping did not personally stab the thrush, she also stabbed one of the murderers to death, which made Ruping already have the face to go down to see the second son of Qi. The old lady Meng Qi took pity, Ruping really became the concubine of the son, which was something that Ruping had never dared to think of before. Don't feel sorry for Ruping, this road was chosen by Ruping, and I think it's very sweet.

Ruping is an orphan who has not had enough food and clothing since she was sensible, and was later adopted by her master so that she could have a hot meal. Senior brother and master are also very strict with Ruping, but they have never smiled at Ruping well, only the second son of Qi did not dislike me for being just a joke, he smiled so good-looking and gentle at Ruping. The death of the second son of Qi was caused by Ruping, and only once he died, Ruping could feel at ease!

Thank you Miss Nie for your success, I hope Miss Nie will not blame Ruping for her willfulness, and please comfort my two senior brothers, so that Ruping will have no nostalgia. ”

Nie Shuyao burst into tears, but scolded on her lips: "A willful woman is not worth saving!" ”

Looking at the red flowers and green trees in the courtyard, she seemed to see Ruping in a wedding dress falling in the happy room, with blood flowing from the corners of her mouth and a smile on her face. (To be continued)
