Chapter 138: Plausible but Not False
"Yo, what's going on, Mother Zhang doesn't allow you to eat, you're still so happy." Ping'er said defiantly.
"I'm sorry, what's the matter with you, you wait, there's your good-looking, and people are watching it." After Xiao Cui finished speaking, she spared it and went to boil water.
Ping'er panicked when she heard this, what did Xiaocui mean by this, could it be that she was exposed, but she had obviously destroyed the evidence.
"Childe. Someone has been found, and this is the owner of the pharmacy. ”
"Let him in."
"Yes."
"See Du Gongzi, I don't know what happened to Du Gongzi looking for the little one?" The owner of the pharmacy oozed a thin layer of sweat from his nervous forehead.
"My son came to you today because I want to ask you something, and please answer truthfully."
"The little one must answer truthfully, and there will be no lies."
"Someone has bought powder from the tubers of Aracea from you these days?" Du Gongzi asked. When the owner of the pharmacy heard this, his face instantly turned pale.
"You've got an answer." Du Gongzi threatened.
"Yes, the day before yesterday, a woman came to my pharmacy and said that she was looking for me, and it turned out that she was buying Aracea tubers, and the medicine itself was similar to arsenic. Frost is the same, very rarely stocked, so I didn't want to sell it to her, but she gave a good price, and gave a small amount of money as a hush money, and the little one saw that the woman was so generous, and the little one helped her grind the tuber into powder. Seeing that Du Gongzi was so imposing, the pharmacy owner had to confess 1510 in order to save his life.
"Yes, yes."
The little servant stuffed the silver in his sleeve to the owner of the pharmacy as a reward, but the boss was a little stunned and did not put the silver away for a long time.
"Take it, it's your reward. Later, we will ask the boss to come with us and help us recognize the woman, and it will be okay with you, is there anything wrong. “
"No, no, the small ones are nothing, you can go with your son." The pharmacy owner put away the money and said hurriedly.
"Why is Du Gongzi here again, I don't know if Gongzi has had lunch." The old woman asked earnestly.
"My son has already had lunch, so I won't bother Mother Zhang."
"I don't know what Du Gongzi came here for this time?" The old woman asked.
"My son is here to seek justice for Miss Su, since Mother Zhang is not good at doing things, then I will come to seek justice for Miss Su for you." Du Gongzi said with a handsome face.
"Look at what Childe said, I'm just a little too busy these days, so I'm ......"
"Then don't bother Mother Zhang to take care of this matter."
"But Du Gongzi ......"
"What, Mother Zhang has other opinions?" Du Gongzi picked up the door and stared at the old woman intently, and the old woman's back was cold, and she broke out in a cold sweat.
"The old slave doesn't dare, then there is a good investigation of this matter by the son of Lao Du. The old slave also wanted to know who was so hateful that he would do such a thing. The old woman said kindly.
"Then ask Mother Zhang to invite all the girls here." Du Gongzi ordered.
"The old slave is going to call the girls down, and ask Du Gongzi to wait here for a while." When the old woman had finished speaking, she went upstairs to look for them.
"Yu'er, Xiaocui, you guys will go down later, wait for me in the hall downstairs." After the old woman had finished speaking, she hurried away.
"Mother Zhang is so anxious, what's wrong."
"Let's go." Su Zhenzhen said in a hoarse voice.
"Okay, Su Zhenzhen, you drink this water first, and the two of me will come when we go, and you stay here well." Yu'er admonished.
Su Zhenzhen nodded, and the two went down.
"Hey, Sister Yu'er, don't you see that is not Du Gongzi?" Xiao Cui said suddenly.
Yu'er didn't turn her head to look at it, the person sitting on the chair was indeed Du Gongzi.
"Du Gongzi, you're here." Yu'er greeted.
"Hmm." Du Gongzi nodded with a sigh.
After a while, the other girls also came down one after another. Su Zhenzhen was a little curious, and she didn't know what was wrong, so driven by curiosity, Su Zhenzhen opened the door, and now in the corridor on the second floor, looking down, she naturally saw Du Gongzi sitting on the chair.
"Du Gongzi, look, this is all our girls here." The old woman said. After these girls came down, they scratched their heads in front of Du Gongzi, thinking that Du Gongzi was here for recreation, eager to attract Du Gongzi's attention, but Du Gongzi didn't bother to take a look, so he lowered his head and drank tea. These girls are still not giving up, and they are still swaying on their own. Su Zhenzhen laughed softly when she saw this, she only thought that this scene was very funny, Du Gongzi put down the teacup and looked up at Su Zhenzhen, nodded at her, and suddenly turned around and glanced at the girls here one by one, the girls were furious by the sharp gaze, and Su Zhenzhen turned back into her room.
"Oh, why is Du Gongzi so serious, it scares people." One of the women wriggled and said coquettishly.
Du Gongzi frowned in disgust when he heard this.
"Shut up. If you don't want to have your tongue cut, don't talk too much. The old woman saw that Du Gongzi frowned, and immediately stopped.
"Mother Zhang......" The woman was glared at by Mother Zhang's angry gaze and swallowed back the words that came to her mouth.
"Go, get someone in." Du Gongzi said to the little guy standing beside him.
"Yes, Childe."
"Ben Gongzi asks you, who has ever bought the powder of Aracea tubers in the drugstore." Du Gongzi stood up and asked solemnly. Everyone shook their heads, only Ping'er's face changed when she heard this, and then quickly returned to normal.
At this moment, the little maid walked out with the owner of the drugstore.
"Ben Gongzi asked again if anyone had ever bought it at the pharmacy." But no one admitted it.
"Since there is no one, the boss, please help me find that person, you can take a closer look." Du Gongzi threatened.
"Yes, Childe, the little one will definitely look for it carefully." The pharmacy owner replied.
So the owner of the pharmacy looked over in a row, walked to the person next to Ping'er and stopped, Ping'er hoped that she could fish in troubled waters and deceive her, but she saw that the boss shook her head, and at this time Ping'er's heart beat very hard, and her cheeks suddenly turned red, and the boss walked up to Ping'er and looked at it carefully.
"Childe, that's her." The owner of the pharmacy said.
"You're sure." Du Gongzi asked.
"Absolutely."
"Look closely, how could it be me." Ping'er said with a little weakness.
"That's you, the day before yesterday you went to my pharmacy to buy Aracea tubers, I didn't plan to sell it because you paid a high price before I agreed to sell it to you, you said at the time that it was not easy to take it out directly, and I specially asked our guys there to grind it into powder for you." The owner of the pharmacy said.
"No, you must be mistaken, I never bought any Aracean tuber powder from you." Ping'er argued.
"Besides, what am I going to do with that?" Ping'er then said.
"Why don't you admit it, little woman?" The pharmacy owner said with a frown.
"I didn't do it, why should I admit it." Ping'er dodged her eyes.
"Childe, the person of that day is indeed this woman, the little one is not a little false, and I ask Childe to check clearly." The pharmacy owner turned his head to Du Gongzi and said.
"Come on, call me, see if she's still hard-mouthed." Before Du Gongzi could speak, the old woman said.
Ping'er was slapped twice, her cheeks were slightly red and swollen, and Ping'er covered her face with her hands and cried.
"Mother Zhang, it's really not Ping'er. Du Gongzi is not Ping'er. Ping'er sobbed, looking at Du Gongzi with tears in her eyes, showing her weak side as much as possible, hoping that Du Gongzi could be moved by her pitiful appearance, and it was nothing more than wanting to arouse a man's desire to protect. Du Gongzi glanced at him and was silent.
"You still don't admit it, do you?" The old woman asked.
"It wasn't Ping'er who did it, does Mother Zhang still have to bend into a trick?" Ping'er choked back.
"Du Gongzi, I didn't find anything else, but we found this." One of Du Gongzi's subordinates handed a medical book to Du Gongzi, Ping'er's pupils shrank, and her hands clutched her handkerchief tightly and looked very nervous, Du Gongzi took the medical book and looked at the person he brought with some doubts.
"Childe, inside." The servant prompted.
Du Gongzi slowly opened the book, suddenly his face changed, and he threw the medical book in his hand towards Ping'er.
"Ben Gongzi gave you a chance, and you didn't admit it, so you told Ben Gongzi why only Tiannanxing was sketched in this book?" Du Gongzi asked angrily.
"Childe, I ......" Ping'er knew that she was wrong, and there were no quibbles in her heart.
"Why, dare to quibble, if you are not completely sure, this son will never bring someone to the door so easily, when the matter comes, what else do you have to quibble?" Du Gongzi asked indifferently.
"Childe spare his life, Childe Ping'er knows that he is wrong." Ping'er limped on the ground and kowtowed to Du Gongzi to ask for guilt, she thought she was smart enough to destroy all the evidence of the crime, but only the medical book she marked forgot to burn.
"What's the use of apologizing to my son." Du Gongzi said.
At this time, Yu'er and Xiaocui were standing in the corridor on the second floor, watching every move underground.
"Sister Yu'er, look, ask her to persecute Sister Su Zhenzhen, now you know that you are afraid."
"But no, alas, people are watching the sky, it's all her own retribution, no wonder others."
"In this way, I feel that Ping'er is suddenly a little pitiful."
"Pathetic? Look at what your sister Su Zhenzhen was persecuted by her, and she almost lost her life, and she is now pitiful and she is to blame. Yu'er snorted coldly and said.
"No, there must be something hateful about the poor man." Xiao Cui said when she heard this.
"However, Sister Yu'er, you said that Du Gongzi came out for Sister Su Zhenzhen like this, and he really moved Sister Su Zhenzhen sincerely." Xiao Cui then asked.
"That's not it, in my opinion, this Du Gongzi's intentions for your sister Su Zhenzhen will not be wrong."
"Sister Yu'er, how do you say Du Gongzi will punish Ping'er, she hurt Sister Su Zhenzhen so much. Du Gongzi will definitely not spare her easily. Xiao Cui said.
"I don't think Du Gongzi will spare her, you see that she was still fiddling with her posture just now and wanted to seduce Du Gongzi, I definitely didn't expect it to end up like this."
"Alas, you are guilty of your own sin, and you shall not live." Xiao Cui said with emotion in an adult's tone.
"Yo, Xiaocui is becoming more and more like a little adult." Yu'er quipped.
"Sister Yu'er, you are making fun of Yu'er again." Xiao Cui blushed and said.
"Okay, let's go in, Su Zhenzhen is still inside." Yu'er said.
"How's the situation out there now?" Su Zhenzhen took a sip of water and asked.
"You'll find out for yourself." Yu'er said with a smile.
"That's it, there's nothing wrong with not knowing." Su Zhenzhen shook her head and said.
"Ah, Sister Su Zhenzhen, you can speak, and you can still pronounce words so clearly, it's great, Sister Su Zhenzhen, you are finally fine." Xiao Cui walked over to Su Zhenzhen's body, shook Su Zhenzhen's body, and said happily.
