Chapter 1053: The Li family is restless
Knowing that Li Yuanwai had died, Zhang, the mother of the house, began to handle Li Yuanwai's funeral with only a little grief.
Zhang and Li Yuanwai have been married for decades, and the previous relationship between the two has long been exhausted because of trivial things in life.
"Go and call everyone up, and tell them that the master has gone."
After saying this, Zhang sat alone on the main seat, watching the people next to him busy, they were busy, but they were muttering in their hearts that their master mother was really a ruthless person, and the old man died so miserably, he didn't even see a little sadness.
Zhang sat in the hall and watched a room of people, and several concubines hid their faces and wept, not knowing whether they were sad about Li Yuanwai's death or worried about their future lives.
Li Yuanwai has a total of three sons, the eldest is already weak, and the youngest is still in infancy, but none of them are Zhang's children.
As for the beautiful concubines, there were also four or five, the youngest, who was only sixteen years old now, and was only carried through the door two days ago.
"Mother, father he ......"
"He was killed by thieves, we have to prepare for the funeral, boss, you preside. After the first seven years of the old man, I will be the master to tell you about the division of the family. ”
A group of people all bent their ears, and when they heard the last words of Zhang's words, they relaxed a little.
The Zhang family has always been loyal, since she said that she would divide the family, it will definitely be fair and will not be deducted.
The eldest biological mother turned out to be Zhang's personal maidservant, and later gave birth to her first son Li Man after being accepted by Li Yuanwai, and Li Man has been raised in Zhang's room, after his biological mother died a few years ago, this was completely recorded in Zhang's name.
So although these three sons are all numbers, only Li Man is qualified to inherit the Li family, if the Zhang family does not mention the division of the family, then the life of these concubines can be imagined.
The most unlucky thing is the concubine who has just entered the door and has not been around for a long time.
"Yes, Mother."
Li Man was well raised, at least not a jealous person.
"Restrain your family, don't let them talk nonsense, if there is a tongue chewing the root of the tongue, they will be killed on the spot."
Because of Zhang's temperament, the Li family's back house is also harmonious, and the only discordant thing is that Li Yuanwai is extremely lustful.
The big and small trivial matters were dealt with, and the white silk was hung on the door before dawn, and the servants who came and went stayed awake all night, rushing to the mourning clothes to inform the relatives and friends around them, and everything was just in order.
When he was almost done, Li Man said: "You guys stagger and rest, let you be tired." ”
Early the next morning, Gu Yu and Lin Xin came to visit, looking at the white chips hanging outside Li Fu, Gu Yu and Lin Xin glanced at each other, and there was a faint surprise in their hearts, it seemed that they had prepared these things overnight.
"It's quick enough."
Lin Xin didn't know what to think, and said in a low voice.
Gu Yu ignored him, since the two of them were often together on this trip, Gu Yu felt that Lin Xin was a little chattering, not only that, but he would occasionally say that he would be killed if he was rebellious.
"What's the trouble for you in a moment?"
Suddenly, Lin Xin looked at Gu Yu and said.
Gu Yu glanced at Lin Xin and said, "Okay." ”
"Don't you ask what's going on?"
Gu Yu glanced at the clothes he was wearing today and said, "Your attitude like this doesn't look like a little guy at all." ”
Lin Xin laughed, and immediately stiffened his body, and the expression on his face became obscene, with a little smugness, and he was alive with a villain's proud face.
"That's kind of interesting."
Gu Yu stepped forward, behind Lin Xin and Gu Yu.
The subordinates of the Li family were busy for half the night, and now half of them have been arranged, but they didn't expect someone to come over so early now, and they were not very well prepared for a while, so they let Gu Yu and Lin Xin drive straight into the hall directly.
In the hall, a pitch-black coffin was placed, and the filial sons and grandsons had already begun to cry.
"It's not time to worship yet, so please come back."
When the housekeeper saw the two of them, he immediately stood up, and the two of them stopped him and wanted to ask them back.
Lin Xin picked him away and scolded: "Don't eat good things, why do you think my young master came here to worship this dead man?" Wrong, just to remind you that your master is still dead in vain. ”
Gu Yu glanced at Lin Xin and didn't say anything, just had a cold face, and was full of young master faction.
"Huh?"
Anyone who hears these words will be blindsided on the spot, let alone an old housekeeper.
When Li Man heard the sound here, he immediately came over, and he asked in a deep voice what was going on.
Lin Xin and Gu Yu didn't answer, they just looked at the housekeeper.
The housekeeper retold what Lin Xin had just said to Li Man, and Li Man understood it immediately, so he asked, "Why did Gongzi say that?" ”
He asked Gu Yu what he said, but his eyes were looking at Lin Xin, even Xiao Si's bearing was so extraordinary, I was afraid that this person's origin was not simple, listening to their accent seemed to be from the capital, could it be that the Qincha of Weifu's private visit took the initiative to come over to solve his doubts after encountering this plan?
Li Man was born in this small town since he was a child, although he has been to other places, but he does not have much outside knowledge, and the limitations of the government are only the prefect at the highest. He didn't know anything about how many Beijing officials there were in the capital.
"There is another person who killed the murderer, I am here for this matter, if Li Gongzi is willing to cooperate, it will not take half a day for the murderer to find out."
Because the person who killed Li Yuanwai was caught on the spot, Li Yuanwai's body was handed over to the Li Mansion for disposal, and at this time the body was already pretended to be buried, and if you want to check the body, you have to find the Li family.
"I'm naturally willing, I don't know what the two of you need me to cooperate with."
Li Man also felt that this matter seemed to be a little strange, why the perpetrator was caught on the spot, it was too smooth.
"Well, we're going to open the coffin for an autopsy, and this coffin hasn't been condemned to death yet."
"This ......"
Li Man can't call the shots about this kind of thing, and now, the head of the Li family is the Zhang family.
"My mother is still here, so I can report this kind of thing."
"Go ahead."
Gu Yu said this as if he was in his own home, and Li Man was stunned again, but he did not hesitate to go to Zhang's courtyard at all.
Lin Xin took advantage of this vacancy behind Li Man and also went to the inner courtyard of the Li family, he didn't plan to ask these masters. These people who are accustomed to being masters naturally don't tell the truth, but they don't see as much as the servants below.
Lin Xin is good-looking, with pastries and candies in his hands, it is more than enough to coax those maids and little girls, for those little girls, as long as they have money, they dare to say anything.
After a while, Lin Xin knew everything about the Li family, he touched his chin, and didn't find any clues from it, this feeling was very strange, as if he was only one step away from finding the murderer.
"Lin Xin."
Gu Yu coughed lightly and said, "I have already seen the corpse just now, and there are only two wounds on it......"
