"Say, why are you with her, what did you say?" When facing the big girl, the second uncle immediately changed his appearance, and asked viciously.

The big girl shrank back in fear, although she was stupid, but she remembered the experience of being beaten in the past, "I, I met her when the bridge was broken, I didn't say anything, I just said that there is a snake demon in West Lake to do the blame, it was the second uncle you told me." ”

"What?!" Hearing this, the second uncle's expression immediately turned sharply, and he angrily picked up a stick and hit the big girl, scolding while beating, "How many times have you been told, no one can say this to you, you actually say it in front of her now, do you know who she is?!" You stupid, fool, donkey is more resistant than you, you are so big in vain, you can't do anything at all, when you were born, those two fools should listen to me and strangle you to death, so as not to harm me now! ”

The big girl who was originally curled up and beaten screamed when she heard this, hit her head on the stomach of the second uncle, and sat on the ground with the butt of the hit, and before he got up to beat again, the big girl had already run out of the yard, shouting while running, "Don't strangle me!" I don't want to die! ”

The second uncle threw the stick to the ground angrily, got up and thought for a while, and then said to himself: "If something goes wrong, you have to tell the other side quickly, otherwise it will be troublesome for the woman to find something." ”

Although his legs went weak at the thought of those people, he finally went out and walked somewhere.

As for Ling Ruo, she did not go back to the inn immediately after leaving Da Niu's house, but inquired about the situation of Da Niu's house nearby, and learned from the neighbors who knew them that Da Niu had some mental problems in her life, but fortunately, her parents did not dislike it, and they raised her with good food and drink. But it's a pity that when Da Niu was fifteen years old, her parents passed away due to illness, leaving her and a tea shop to her only relative, that is, Da Niu's second uncle.

The second uncle of the eldest girl is idle, either eating and drinking or gambling all day long, never doing serious things, and no girl is willing to marry him until he is middle-aged. In the past, it was good to have his eldest brother here, but after his eldest brother went, this family was completely defeated by him, the tea shop was sold, and all the things that could be used at home were also sold. is even more casual to beat and scold the big girl, and doesn't treat her as a human being at all.

It is said that this kind of loser who eats, drinks, prostitutes, and gambles should not end well, but last year, he suddenly had money, not only did he eat and drink, but even built three green tile houses.

Last year...... That is, when the rumors began, it turned out to be such a coincidence? In the end, what is the intention of the second uncle of the big girl to let the big girl spread the rumors of the West Lake haunting demons?

Doubts came one after another, Ling Ruo felt as if he had touched something, but there was still an opportunity missing, as long as he found this opportunity point, he could clear all the fog.

As soon as he stepped into the inn, Mo Yu pulled Ling Ruo's sleeve and said a little sourly: "Master, the fourth master and the thirteenth master are sitting there drinking tea, and there is a woman sitting next to the thirteenth master." ”

Ling Ruo looked in the direction she pointed, and sure enough, she saw Yinzhen and the woman on the side, the most surprising thing was that this woman actually had a white flower on her sideburns, and generally only when a loved one in the family passed away, she would wear a white hairpin in white clothes.

It happened that Yin Zhen also saw them, beckoned them to come over, and when they got closer, Ling Ruo had not yet spoken, and Mo Yu had already said: "The Thirteenth Master is so blessed, he brought a beauty back after a while." ”

"How did you talk to the Thirteenth Master, don't apologize quickly!" Ling Ruozhi said that Mo Yu was not happy in his heart, but such words were undoubtedly not Mo Yu's turn to say it.

"Forget it, it's out of the way." Yinxiang waved his hand and smiled bitterly at Mo Yu, who had a face: "But you are really wronged, this girl was not brought back by me, but the fourth brother!" ”

"Fourth Master?" Now it was Ling Ruo's turn to be surprised, when did Yin Zhen become so interested in women, and he took her back to the inn after such a while, if this woman looks like Nalan Mei'er, it makes sense, but it doesn't look like it!

Yinzhen stroked his forehead with a headache, and after Ling Ruo sat down, he told the cause and effect of the matter, it turned out that today he and Yinzhen went to Liutong Silver to check the whereabouts of Yinliang, but the shopkeeper was very tight, and he repeatedly said that he didn't know what to say, and when he was asked, he said he didn't remember, in short, he refused to say anything useful.

When he came back, he passed by the yamen of the prefect of Hangzhou and saw a woman kneeling alone at the yamen, and Yinzhen recognized her as the woman who collided with him that day, and then went to beat the drum and voice the grievances.

Yin Zhen didn't want to care about it, but when the woman saw them chasing them all the way, she kept asking them to redress their grievances and uphold justice.

Yin Zhen had no choice but to take her back to the inn first, and came back without asking a few words to Ling Ruo. Speaking of this, Yin Zhen said to the woman who had been biting her lip and was silent: "If you have a grievance, you can go to the prefect, even the governor and the governor, we are just ordinary businessmen, and we really can't control your affairs." ”

"No!" The woman suddenly raised her head and said categorically: "You are not merchants, I know very well!" ”

Yinxiang pursed his lips and said disapprovingly: "Girl's words are so strange, what else can we be if we are not businessmen?" Until now, they didn't know what the woman's surname was, and they were entangled inexplicably.

The woman turned her gaze to Yinzhen, and her pale lower lip had a row of tooth marks that she had bitten out by herself, "I bumped into you at the door of the prefect's office that day, and I once touched the material on your body, the weaving method is fine, the tentacles are soft, and the flowers are different colors, through the warp and weft, it is clearly from the cloud brocade woven by Jiangning, this brocade has never been only for the imperial relatives and dignitaries in the capital, how can an ordinary businessman wear it?" I won't be mistaken, you must be nobles from the capital. ”

Hearing her answer, everyone was also stunned, for a long time, Yin Zhen shook his head and chuckled, never expected that what he exposed his lie was the clothes he was wearing, which was really unexpected; However, this also made him curious about the identity of the woman, it is impossible for ordinary people to be so familiar with brocade, but after such a short contact, he recognized that the clothes on his body were made of cloud brocade.

"Who the hell are you? If you don't make it clear, we won't help you. Yinzhen took a sip of tea and asked.

Seeing that Yinzhen acquiesced to her identity, a smile appeared on the woman's face, and she immediately said: "Don't hide it, the little woman's surname is Li'er, and her father is Hangzhou Weaving Fangping." The little girl grew up in weaving and spinning since she was a child, so she knows a little about brocade embroidery. ”

The daughter of Hangzhou weaving? Yin Zhen was slightly surprised, although he guessed from his demeanor and deeds that he should be a lady, but he didn't want to be the daughter of an official, Hangzhou Weaving is a five-grade official, at the same level as the prefect, plus he is sent by the Internal Affairs Bureau, for example, with the same Qincha, and has a transcendent status in the local area, how could his daughter wear such a dress and show her head, and still shout grievances in the government? Could it be that there is something wrong with Hangzhou weaving?
