Chapter 304: Regret
"Sister-in-law Xianglin, this woman is definitely not simple!"
"When I first met her, I thought she was a capable person, and it was true, she worked very well, and she always did her work beautifully, especially with all her strength, she was like a man.
"Work more and talk less, such a subordinate is always liked, and I was very happy with such a capable person before, until today."
"Today the store is quieter than usual, I have nothing to do, and the tea is also upset, so I went out to walk, saw Xianglin's sister-in-law washing rice, I wanted to casually talk to her, after some nonsense, I said casually:
"'Hey, don't be surprised when you say it, I hired someone, and I don't even know where they are, don't you think it's weird?'
"I just wanted to bury her for a few words, but she was so excited that the water splashed out of the rice
She glanced back at me, and there was a deep meaning in her eyes, which I didn't understand.
She probably sensed her gaffe, and immediately smiled back at me, her originally ruddy face oozed a little pale, the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes were made into a few lines, and her eyes were squeezed into a triangle, and her mouth was grinning wide, as if I had said something funnyβmost of the people who accompanied the smiling face to please me were like this.
The corners of her mouth quivered twice, she swallowed, and her eyes were fixed on me, as if to hide the nervousness that could be seen at a glance. She finally spoke:
"'It's all sad things, and it's sad to mention it.'" She immediately calmed down, but such a perfunctory result did not satisfy me, and I asked a few more questions, but ......"
Obviously, the fourth uncle didn't finish it, but I don't know why, after reading these messy and trivial words, Tang Ning felt a little chill in his back, is it really not as simple as it seems on the surface? But it really should be like this, otherwise my main quest this time will not be established.
It's a pity that now Xianglin's sister-in-law has left, so she can only understand it from the side, so Tang Ning waited patiently until the evening, and then went to find the fourth uncle, after the two drank a pot of wine, Tang Ning took advantage of the good atmosphere and asked tentatively: "Fourth uncle, I accidentally saw an account book you kept today." β
"Then what do you think of your fourth uncle's account as someone who has drunk foreign ink?" The fourth uncle asked Tang Ning proudly.
"The fourth uncle must not say anything if he remembers the account." Tang Ning praised it first, and then cut to the point: "But what I saw in the account book is not an account, but a written Xianglin sister-in-law, but you haven't finished writing it, so I want to ask you why you think that Xianglin's sister-in-law is not simple?" β
Hearing Tang Ning ask about this matter, the fourth uncle's face became solemn, first took a big sip of wine, and then slowly asked: "You also saw that I didn't finish writing in that account book, so do you know why I didn't finish it?" β
Tang Ning shook his head and said, "I don't know, in fact, this is exactly what I want to ask you." β
The fourth uncle took another sip of wine, then closed his eyes and said, "Because I can't see through, I really can't see through." Speaking of which, your fourth uncle's eyes have almost never missed people, but only in this Xianglin sister-in-law, I can't see through it, or I can't see it away, but I don't know why I always feel that something is wrong here, but I just don't know what the problem is. β
Speaking of this, the fourth uncle opened his eyes and said to Tang Ning with a serious expression: "Do you remember how I felt when I first chatted with her?" That was definitely what I really thought at the time, and I still can't forget that smile.
And how could things be so coincidental? Marry two men and die two men? Not only the man died, but the child also died! And most importantly, these things are what she is telling us, there is no corroboration, who knows if what she said is true or not? β
"I remember that there was a middle-aged man named Mrs. Wei?" Downing interjected and asked.
"It's because of this Chinese person that I'm just suspicious, so I didn't write it all, so I hired her after she came back, so I questioned my own vision." The fourth uncle replied distressedly, and then poured another sip of wine.
Seeing the fourth uncle's appearance, Tang Ning decided to change his perspective: "Then if it weren't for these things that happened later, judging from the feeling you had when you chatted with Xianglin's sister-in-law for the first time, what kind of person do you think she would be?" β
The fourth uncle pondered for a while, and then said with some uncertainty: "It's not good to say, but I always feel that this person is very scheming, and he should have a plan." β
"But if she is really scheming, how can she end up where she is now?" Downing questioned.
"That's the problem, to be honest, if it weren't for the exact same, I couldn't believe that this was Xianglin's sister-in-law, this change is too big, it's like a different person!" The fourth uncle shook his head and sighed, and then he was too strong to drink, and fell asleep groggily.
Tang Ning had no choice but to send the fourth uncle back to the room, and at the same time pondered in his heart, it seems that this is all that the fourth uncle can ask here, or tomorrow I should go to the old lady of Zhongrenwei to ask.
But the next morning, as soon as Tang Ning woke up, he heard a shocking news, that is, Mrs. Wei was actually dead! And it's scared to death!
Hearing the news, Tang Ning was taken aback, so he immediately got dressed in three or two times, and rushed to Mrs. Wei's house, although there were police and servants at the scene to maintain order, but Tang Ning was able to mix in with the identity of the young master of the Lu family, and saw the body of Mrs. Wei, sure enough, her face was full of horror and death, and she did look like she was scared to death.
And the neighbor on one side is still reporting to the police: "I just fell asleep last night when I heard the old lady Wei next door shouting, don't come, don't come!" This has nothing to do with me, it really has nothing to do with me, what's the use of you looking for me?! It seems that there are other things to say, but I don't hear them clearly.
Originally, I thought that this old woman was having hysteria in a dream, and I didn't take it seriously, but this morning when I came together, I found her lying at the door of her house, and I went over to take a look, and found that she was dead, and then I called the police. β
"Has she offended anyone?" The police asked.
"I don't know much about that." The neighbor shook his head and replied.
PS: I'm sorry to tell you that because I received a notice, Master Lu's related works are not allowed to be written anymore (except for "Eh" and "New Story"), so the blessing and the subsequent Mr. Fujino and medicine can only unfortunately not appear......
