The next morning, the sun was shining. Shang Wenqing woke up and heard the pleasant sound of birdsong outside the window, and yesterday's depressed mood disappeared a lot. He got up and dressed, and wanted to push open the door to bask in the sun, but as soon as his hand touched the door, he heard a click, and the two wooden doors fell down at once, almost hitting him. Shang Wenqing was stunned for a moment, only to remember that this gate was kicked off by Mu Xipian the day before yesterday, and he carefully closed it, but now he was distracted for a while and forgot about it.

The two wooden doors fell to the ground and broke into four sections, seeing that they could no longer be saved, Shang Wenqing shook his head, simply stopped caring about it, straightened his robe, and strode out of the door.

"I don't know what Brother Huo Sheng is doing." Shang Wenqing came to the street, watching the crowd bustling, slightly busy in harmony, standing in it, and being slightly incommensurate with these beings. "I guess I'm busy with the roast goose restaurant again, right?" Thinking like this, he turned around and walked in the direction of Huo Shengdian.

After walking for a while, I can vaguely see the big card of 'Huo's roast goose'. Shang Wenqing saw that there were many people gathered in front of the store, and said with a smile in his heart: "After so many years, the Huo family's roast goose business is still so good. Thinking so, he quickened his pace and walked forward. I have to hurry over and give Brother Huo a hand. ”

Shang Wenqing came to the front of the store full of joy, but he couldn't help but be surprised when he pushed through the crowd. I saw a large red blood stain on the ground extending into the house, and inside the house was an old man howling and crying. Shang Wenqing was shocked, and recognized that the voice was Huo Sheng's father, so he hurriedly rushed into the house to take a look, and at first glance, he couldn't help but feel like five thunderbolts were thundering. It turned out that Huo Lao was kneeling on the ground in the middle of the house and holding a corpse and crying bitterly, and that corpse was Huo Sheng.

"Brother Huo" Shang Wenqing was so frightened by the scene in front of him that he couldn't help but kneel down in front of Huo Lao. Seeing that it was Shang Wenqing, Huo Lao cried even more fiercely and said, "Wenqing, why is this?" I'm just such a son. Although he usually likes to fight with others, he has never had a grudge against others. Why? Why is this happening? ”

Shang Wenqing looked at Huo Sheng in Huo Lao's arms, and couldn't help but gasp for a while. I saw Huo Sheng, his limbs were stiff, his face was covered with blood, and what was even more terrifying was the hole in his forehead that was the size of a palm, and he almost wanted to see the milky white brain inside, and his eyes were round and round, full of unwillingness and doubt, and he looked at Shang Wenqing's heart.

Shang Wenqing staggered out of the crowd, fell to the ground and gasped for air. Huo Sheng's tragic image was hovering in front of him, and Shang Wenqing only felt dizzy, his stomach was churning, and he almost wanted to vomit. When he was uncomfortable, he suddenly heard a 'hey', and was patted on the back.

"What are you doing kneeling here in the morning?" Seeing that Shang Wenqing's face was bloodless, Mu Xi couldn't help frowning slightly: "Why don't you help Brother Huo Sheng?" ”

"Pity?" Shang Wenqing looked at Mu in a daze, and only after a while did he say in a trembling voice: "Brother Huo Sheng is dead"

……

Huo Sheng's matter went straight to the afternoon, and the government sent someone to investigate, but after looking for a long time, he couldn't find any clues, so he had to return in vain. Although Mu Xilian learned of Huo Sheng's death, although he was very sad, he also had to endure his grief and help Huo Lao take care of related affairs. Although Shang Wenqing knew that the murderer was sent by Master Jing, he knew that no one would believe it even if he said it, and if he didn't get it right, he might burn himself, so although he was full of grief and indignation in his heart, he could only endure it and follow Mu Xilian to deal with related matters.

As the sun set, the two of them, tired from a day, sat side by side in the courtyard. Watching the sunset on the horizon, Mu Xi muttered, "I can't steal Brother Huo's roast goose in the future." ”

Shang Wenqing was stunned, and sighed randomly: "I didn't expect this to happen, and I don't know who the murderer is." ”

Mu Xilian turned his head to look at Shang Wenqing, and said after a while: "Actually, you know who the murderer is, right?" ”

"What's the use of knowing?" Shang Wenqing looked at the sunset and said: "No one will believe it when it says it, and no one will care if it is believed." ”

"What's next?" Mu Xilian turned his head to look at the sad Huo Lao in the room and asked.

"Probably the same as back then." Shang Wenqing said: "I can't find a clue, it's over." Or grab a few inconsequential people and pretend. ”

"Why Brother Huo?" Mu Xipian gritted his teeth, and his voice trembled a little: "He didn't do anything." ”

"Maybe it's because of me, right?" Shang Wenqing smiled miserably and said, "Brother Huo Sheng told Yu Shu about my drunkenness that night, if it weren't for this, it wouldn't have happened later." Your father did this probably to vent his anger. ”

Mu Xipi saw that his face was pale, and knew that he blamed himself in his heart, but how could he comfort him again because of the general pain in his heart. Seeing her like this, Shang Wenqing forced a smile and said, "You don't have to be reluctant, I know you don't feel good in your heart, after all, Brother Huo likes you very much." ”

Before Shang Wenqing finished speaking, Yu Shu's tears flowed down, and she could only hear Yu Shu say: "I know that I am also me"

Shang Wenqing saw Mu hiding his face and crying, and he was not comforted, but he shook his head slightly. Jing Yushu cried for a while, and her voice gradually stopped, and she finally stopped convulsing and said, "Then what will they do next?" What do you do? ”

"I don't know." Shang Wenqing shook his head and said, "My life is rotten, and it is not a pity to die." It's just that Brother Huo and Yu Shu have been affected. ”

"I came home last night and didn't find out what bad they did to Sister Yushu." Mu Xilian wiped her tears and said, "What my mother-in-law gave to Sister Yushu is indeed a decoction for the fetus." ”

"If that's the case, that's great." Shang Wenqing nodded and said: "My big deal is death, it's just that you have to protect Yushu these days, I don't believe that your father will be so good." ”

"I know." Mu Xilian nodded.

"Wen Qing, pity." The two were talking, and suddenly heard Huo Lao shouting behind him, and they all turned around. I saw Huo Lao's face full of sadness, and he took a purse in his hand and said: "This is a child, I think, he plans to wait for this nerd to fill it up before giving it to you, but he shouldn't be able to wait for that day." As he spoke, he handed the half-full purse to Mu Xilian.

Mu Xilian took the purse and opened it to see, only to see that it was full of copper coins, and he was a little puzzled in his heart, and was about to ask, but suddenly remembered something, and the whole person suddenly cried again: "It turns out that Brother Huo has always known." ”

"You joked with me before you gave birth." Huo Laoqiang said with a smile: "When this bag is full, I will go to you to propose marriage, and say that you have eaten so many roast geese from our family, and you will have to work hard in the future to pay back the money you owe." ”

Huo Lao went back to the house leisurely, Mu Xilian stood in the courtyard holding the purse, tears couldn't stop sliding down her face, the setting sun shone on her face, I don't know if the expression was happy or sad.
