Chapter Eighty-Eight: Something Happened at Home

Zhenxi Restaurant sold 4,000 taels of silver and sold it to Lu Xiaoyao and Ye Zui, and when Huang Cai transferred the restaurant, he knew that Ye Zui and Lu Xiaoyao were half of each other.

It stands to reason that Ye Zui alone has the ability to take over the Zhenxi Restaurant, but he actually shared it equally with Lu Xiaoyao, which is still incomprehensible.

But at this time, Huang Cai didn't have a chance to think about it, got four thousand taels of silver, and hurriedly went to pay off the debts and take care of them.

Zhenxi Restaurant arrived, Lu Xiaoyao went back and walked with the wind, imagining how she would surprise him when Zhao Guanlan came back.

Lu Xiaoyao's good mood has been maintained at home.

"Sister-in-law, you're back, come in with me."

As soon as he entered the door, Zhao Cong hurriedly rushed out, his little face was full of anxiety, Lu Xiaoyao looked at him like this, and wrinkled his eyebrows.

"What happened? You're starting to get frizzy again. ”

Hearing Lu Xiaoyao's words, Zhao Cong was stunned for a moment, then let go of Lu Xiaoyao, and touched his head apologetically.

"Sister-in-law, I forgot."

Zhao Cong's words fell, and Lu Xiaoyao smiled, "What's wrong, don't be in a hurry to say it slowly." ”

Speaking of what happened, Zhao Cong's face showed urgency again, and he hurriedly said, "Sister-in-law, there was a thief at home, who stole our sausages to eat, and then died." ”

Hearing Zhao Cong's words, Lu Xiaoyao couldn't calm down, and hurriedly rushed to the house first.

In the backyard, a few aunts who helped fill sausages stood in the corner, looking at the man lying down on the edge of the fire shivering, the second aunt sat on the ground on the side in fear, obviously frightened, Zhao Lan wiped her tears next to her, and she looked terrified.

Lu Xiaoyao followed Zhao Cong in, didn't care about looking at the situation of the second aunt, and went directly to the man who fell to the ground.

Zhao Cong followed Lu Xiaoyao's side, telling how the man on the ground was poisoned after eating the sausage.

The corners of the man's lips were blue, his face was pale, he was dressed in an ordinary dress, looking at his face, he didn't know him, Lu Xiaoyao didn't think about his identity, stretched out his hand and began to take the pulse.

When he squatted down, Lu Xiaoyao knew from his weak breathing that he was not dead, and he was relieved at this time.

If something happens in their house, whether it is harmed by them or not, and it spreads, their family will definitely become the target of public criticism.

Lu Xiaoyao frowned, and when he took the man's pulse, he also told Zhao Cong to hurry up and report to the official.

As soon as Zhao Cong heard about reporting to the official, he was so frightened that his legs were trembling, "Sister-in-law, you can't report to the official, he, he ate our sausage, if you report to the official, we will be finished." ”

No matter how young Zhao Cong is, he also knows the danger of this matter, people have an accident in their house, and they only have an accident after eating their things, whether he steals or not, there is something wrong with their things, and if they find out, his brother and sister-in-law will be very dangerous.

Zhao Cong subconsciously didn't want to report to the official, his brother and sister-in-law were his closest people, and they couldn't have an accident, especially now that his brother was not there, his sister-in-law couldn't have an accident.

Zhao Cong's thoughts were the same as those of the second aunt, the second aunt struggled to get up, and with the support of the eldest mother, she slowly came to Lu Xiaoyao's side.

"Xiaoyao, we can't report to the official, what happened to him in our family, whether we did it or not, has something to do with us, if you report to the official, you and Dawu ......"

Lu Xiaoyao could see the second aunt's urgency, but Lu Xiaoyao disagreed with her words.

Who is this man? She didn't know, what did he come to do? They also don't know that instead of hiding and letting people get the handle, it is better to report to the official directly, and their family is upright and sitting, so that they are not afraid of being investigated.

Lu Xiaoyao withdrew her hand, looked at the second aunt and said, "Second aunt, this matter is definitely not as simple as we think, in my opinion, if we don't report to the official, some people will also report to the official for us, and when the time comes, it will be us who will be passive." ”

Lu Xiaoyao's words made the second aunt stunned, Lu Xiaoyao didn't say anything else, and said to Zhao Cong in a deep voice.

"Xiaohu, hurry up."

Zhao Cong looked at Lu Xiaoyao hesitantly, the second aunt thought about it, and finally gritted her teeth and said, "Xiaohu, listen to your sister-in-law, go quickly." ”

Even the second aunt said so, Zhao Cong could only nod, and then quickly rushed out.

As soon as Zhao Cong left, Lu Xiaoyao said to the frightened ladies on the side, "Let's come over and take a hand and carry people to the guest room." ”

This person was poisoned, and Lu Xiaoyao had not found out what poison he had yet, so while everyone was carrying people to the guest room, Lu Xiaoyao looked at the eldest mother.

"Auntie, this person is poisoned, I can't leave now, can you help me go to Tongxin Hall and invite Uncle Chang over?"

The eldest mother has been working here since the beginning, Lu Xiaoyao is good to her, there is something wrong at this time, how can the eldest mother refuse, and nodded hurriedly.

"I'll go right away."

Soon the eldest lady left the house, and Lu Xiaoyao returned to the room.

Lu Xiaoyao didn't stay in the room for long, and when he came out, he had two silver hairpins in his hand.

Since there is silver at home, Zhao Guanlan will also give her some small gifts from time to time, and the silver hairpin that Lu Xiaoyao took was the first time Zhao Guanlan sold prey in the county town and got silver in exchange.

Lu Xiaoyao didn't look at the poisoned man again, motioned for the guy to watch at the door, and she went to the backyard.

The backyard is a special place for smoking sausages, and outside the wall, there is a forest, in order to facilitate the guys to go to the forest to chop wood and smoke sausages, Zhao Guanlan opened a small door in the backyard.

Lu Xiaoyao came to check, the lock on the small door had been pried open, and there were still some traces on it.

After looking at the door, Lu Xiaoyao came to the place where the sausages were smoked.

The weather hasn't been good lately, and the sausages made earlier haven't dried out yet, so they haven't smoked too much today.

Lu Xiaoyao took the silver stubble and carefully inspected the sausages.

"Madame, ma'am."

As soon as the sausages were checked, the guys at home rushed in in a hurry.

Lu Xiaoyao raised his eyes, and the guy hurriedly said, "The county government has come, say, say ......"

"Who is Lu Xiaoyao?"

Before the guy finished speaking, a few officials went directly into the backyard and looked around with a dark face.

Lu Xiaoyao frowned, got up calmly, and looked at the person in charge, "Official, I'm Lu Xiaoyao." ”

"Someone reported to the official, saying that you poisoned and killed people, come with us."

The words of the leader fell, and with a gesture, a knife was set up on Lu Xiaoyao's neck, and this scene instantly frightened everyone.

"Official, no, it's not our lady who poisoned her, she just got ......"

A guy opened his mouth to argue for Lu Xiaoyao, but before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Lu Xiaoyao, "

Shut up, take care of my second aunt and younger siblings for me, and I'll be back soon. ”

When Lu Xiaoyao's words fell, the guys stopped talking, and they all looked at her with nervous faces.

Lu Xiaoyao raised his eyes and looked at the official led by him, and said neither humbly nor arrogantly, "Official, may I ask who is the person who reported me for poisoning people?" ”
