(Text)

The reason why Meng Tianchu wanted to whisper in Cuilian's ear just now that Cuilian bought the smell of Wenpo's silver was because he wanted to see if it was possible to leave those silver taels to Cao's husband for treatment.

Wang Zhutou really asked: "Master, is the bag of silver that this matchmaker received from this Cuilian a gift?" ”

"I haven't found out yet. Meng Tianchu was vague, and asked Cuilian again: "How is it?" Are you going to do it yourself or are you waiting for us to torture you? ”

Cuilian smiled sadly: "I recruited, I bought the Cao family to kill Wu Xiaomei, I want to be the original partner of the Hao family." It was also me who bought the cell boss to poison Cao's mouth. Today's meal is also poisoned by me, for fear that you will find out the whole case. ”

Meng Tianchu leaned into Cuilian's ear and whispered, "How much silver did you give to the Cao family?" Is it two hundred taels? ”

Cuilian shook her head and replied in a low voice, "I only gave her one hundred and fifty taels." ”

Meng Tianchu frowned: "Cuilian, since you have admitted to buying murder." And why should you hide the amount of money you give? ”

"Yes, I gave her only one hundred and fifty taels. I didn't hide it. At this point, what else is there to hide? ”

Meng Tianchu pondered for a long time, then straightened up and continued to ask loudly: "You were the one who poisoned and killed the Cao family, right?" ”

"Yes, I put arsenic in the food I gave to Cao, and I was worried that she would confess me. This kind of thing can't be entrusted to others to do, so you can only take risks yourself. ”

"Arsenic? Is your poison arsenic? Are you sure? ”

"Yes. It's arsenic, which I bought to poison rats before. ”

Meng Tianchu's brows were locked together, this matter was very wrong, most of the symptoms of arsenic poisoning were gastrointestinal (the central nervous system paralysis type mainly occurred when a large amount of arsenic ****, poisoning in meals generally did not appear), gastrointestinal arsenic poisoning was mainly vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea and other gastroenteritis symptoms, but Cao's did not have this symptom. It's not like arsenic poisoning.

The contradiction between the two reminded him of the contradiction between the two amounts of money that bought Cao's land. Two hundred and two taels of silver were found from Cao's house, and those two taels were the normal midwifery honorarium, and Wang Zhutou searched out the fifty taels in the bag from the rice jar, and he secretly found one hundred and fifty taels from the bottom of the toilet. This is not in line with what Cuilian said.

However, after recalling it carefully, I found that the one hundred and fifty taels wrapped in oiled paper under the toilet bowl had the mark of the Hao family, and there was a fragrance attached to the silver, and it was by virtue of this that I found out that Cuilian was the one who bought the Cao family (the gold also has this fragrance). However, the bag of fifty taels of silver that Wang Zhutou and they found from the rice jar, although it also had the mark of the Hao family, did not have this unique fragrance.

Could it be that these two pieces of money came from two different people? In other words, there are actually two people who bought the Cao family!

If so. The contradiction of the poisoning can be explained clearly, that is, Cao was actually poisoned twice, once because Cuilian put arsenic in the meal, and what the poison was in the other time is not clear. Cao Shi actually did not poison Cuilian, she may not have eaten after being tortured, and before she could eat and be poisoned, another person poisoned her body attacked, resulting in her death.

Who is the other person who bought the Cao family? This person is likely to be the one who poisoned the Cao family again, and this person obviously did not know that Cuilian was also bribing the Cao family and poisoning the Cao family. Otherwise, he wouldn't have done it again.

Who could this man be?

Meng Tianchu lowered his head and pondered carefully. But after thinking about it for a long time, I couldn't figure it out.

Meng Tianchu was thinking about it. Wang Zhutou stared at Cuilian viciously, the more he looked at it, the more angry he became, remembering that he was almost killed by her, he stepped forward and kicked her: "Why did you knock Xiaoxing and the town housekeeper unconscious?" ”

Cuilian slowly raised her head, ignoring the king's head, looking into the distance, but still not speaking.

Wang Zhutou was furious, and he was about to slap Cuilian with his palm, Meng Tianchu shouted: "Catch the head, don't do it." ”

"Master, this slut can't fight!"

"I have my own measure, so let's go to the ward and ask Hao Tianbao and tell her that Xiaohong, the maid who died in the well, is three months pregnant, listen to what he has to say. ”

"Yes!" Wang Zhutou bowed down to receive the order, glared at Cuilian fiercely, and then turned around and left.

Meng Tianchu said to Cuilian: "You also killed Xiaohong, right?" ”

Cuilian sighed, the first two things were enough to convict her of death, so there was no need to hide it: "Yes, I killed Xiaohong, I hit her on the head with a wooden stick while she was carrying water by the well, and she was carried into the well and drowned." ”

"Why did you kill Xiaohong?"

"For the sake of the original status, I have already said it, for this purpose, I bought Wen Po to kill the original Wu Xiaomei, I know that after Xiaohong is pregnant with the master's child, of course I will kill her!"

Meng Tianchu felt a chill in his heart, this woman was not vicious, in order to achieve her goal, her methods were vicious and spicy, which made people shudder. He asked again: "Then why did you knock Zhenjiang and Xiaoxing unconscious?" ”

"The town housekeeper is loyal to the master, and Xiaohong is pregnant. He knew earlier than me that he had always been good to that girl, and after Xiaohong was pushed down the well by me, Xiaohong couldn't be found anywhere in Zhenjiang, so he ran to me and asked me, listening to his tone seemed to be a little suspicious, and said that he would report to the official. I was furious. While he was unprepared, he knocked him unconscious with a stool. was going to strangle him with a rope, but at this time Xiao Xing suddenly screamed and pushed the door in, panicked and said that Xiao Hongdi's body was found in the well, and then she saw Zhenjiang on the ground, and shouted in fright, I hurriedly said that the town housekeeper suddenly fainted, let her check it. And then take advantage of her unpreparedness. Knocked her unconscious from behind with a stool. ”

"Why don't you kill them?"

"I wanted to kill the ground, but when Xiaoxing came to me, she said along the way that a body was found in the well, so the house was in chaos, and the maids and servants came to knock on my door to report. So I didn't have time to kill them, so I just smashed them on the head a few more times, and before I could see if they were dead, I pushed them under the bed. Then come out and deal with the transaction. While you were dealing with it, you came. ”

"Hehe, in this way, if we come a little later, the two of them may not be able to escape your poisonous hands. ”

After a while, Wang Zhutou returned. looked very surprised, and said to Meng Tianchu in a low voice: "Master, you must not have imagined that I told Hao Tianbao about the maid Xiaohong's three months of pregnancy, and he was actually very surprised, saying that he had never done anything with that Xiaohong, and he also insisted that the child in Xiaohong's belly had nothing to do with him. ”

When Meng Tianchu heard this, he was slightly surprised: "Won't it?" Is he worried that Cuilian is jealous and doesn't want to admit it? ”

"I thought so before, but I think Hao Tianbao's words also make sense. ”

"What did he say?"

"He said that he was in charge of this family, and he had the final say. Besides, if the child in the little red belly is his. He will definitely want it, after all, it is the blood of the Hao family. No one can fail to admit it; That Xiaohong is already dead, if he is really afraid that Cuilian will be jealous, and the tigress will be powerful, there is no need; Besides, it's just a maid, sleep when you sleep, what else dare not admit, that Cuilian used to be a maid, he can marry, let alone a woman who is already pregnant with his child. ”

Meng Tianchu heard this, frowned and said, "But, that's not right, didn't the child Cuilian in the little red belly say that it was their master's?" ”

"I think that's just Cuilian's guess, because in this Hao family's house, only Hao Tianbao is the most likely, who else can be so casual with the maid besides him?"

"Well, you really reminded me. ”

"What do you mean by ......?"

"Think about it, we all agree that Hao Tianbao did this thing, so now the question arises, who is the man who did the same thing with Xiaohong?"

Hao Tianbao was also very angry when he heard it, no wonder, there have been so many things in the Hao family recently, the eldest wife is dead, the child is gone, and the little wife is also arrested by the yamen. I can't help but be angry. Hao Tianbao also said that Cuilian was right to kill Xiaohong, saying that the maid had ruined the reputation of his Hao family, even if Cuilian didn't kill him, he would kill him if he knew. ”

"Hehe, doesn't he know that Cuilian has confessed to buying and murdering his wife and killing Xiaohong?"

"I know, I told him later, and he was going crazy when he heard it. The servants were all knocked out of the door by him. ”

This is completely understandable. However, Meng Tianchu didn't have the heart to care about how Hao Tianbao was angry at the moment. What he wants to know most is whose child Xiaohong is pregnant. Although this answer has no direct impact on the case itself, the murderer who is now floating on the surface has been identified, and the real murderer secretly has not shown the slightest trace. One thing is certain, this person must be from the Hao Mansion or have a grudge against the Hao family. Maybe when investigating Xiaohong's pregnancy case, you can find clues.

Who is this man? After thinking about it, Meng Tianchu suddenly turned around and asked Murong Yuxue, who was making a note on the side: "With your intuition as a woman, who do you think that little red man is?" “

"Men? Gut feeling? Murong Xue seemed to have not understood what Meng Tianchu said.

"Alas! Stupid, stupid, just tell me, who do you think that little red wild man will be! ”

"How do I know who it is?" Murong Zhenxue's face was a little red.

"If someone killed the man you love, what would you wish for most right now?"

"I wish he was dead!" Murong Yuxue didn't want to say it.

"Then this man must be in the Hao family. ”

"Why?" Murong Xue Qi said.

"It's simple. First of all, the maid master of the big family is very strict, do you see that our family Feiyan has talked to other men besides you and Lao He Tou on weekdays? Then the Hao family is naturally the same, she is the personal maid next to the big * milk, so naturally there is no more time to go out, so the man should be in the Hao family. ”

Murong Yuxue nodded again and again.

"Secondly. Since she doesn't have much contact with the outside world, it is naturally easiest for her to have feelings with the men in her yard. It's the so-called 'love over time'. This is probably the reason why Cuilian misunderstood. It's just that she ignored one point, the Hao family has nearly ten men, not to mention that Hao Tianbao is not the only one who is interested in young women. ”

Murong Yuxue's eyes lit up and said, "Well, those young manservants are also possible. ”

"Yes, this is the first..., since it is a person from the courtyard of the Hao family. Then, we can narrow down the target to those men who are not married or widowed, or the men who are very close to Xiaohong on weekdays, so that it is not difficult to find the wild man. ”

At this moment, a catcher ran out of breath and said, "Master, go and take a look, Hao Yuanwai is like crazy, and he is whipping the servants and maids in the backyard." ”

Meng Tianchu hurriedly rushed to the backyard with Wang Zhutou, Murong Yuxue and others. Sure enough, I saw that Hao Tianbao was on crutches in one hand, screaming and scolding, and the housekeeper Zhenjiang had a bandage on his head, covering his head with one hand and a leather whip with the other, and slapping the kneeling male servants on the ground fiercely. The servants held their heads in their hands, but did not dare to dodge. It looks terrible.

"Stop!" Meng Tianchu roared, and quickly stepped forward and snatched the whip from Zhenjiang's hand, "You are going to kill people like this!" ”

Hao Tianbao gasped and said, "Fight!" Kill these brutes! The wild men who ruined the reputation of my Hao family were killed one by one! ”

Meng Tianchu stepped forward and patted Hao Tianbao on the shoulder, this man thought that there were several incidents in the family in a row, and the whole person collapsed: "Master Hao, you don't have to be impatient, listen to me tell you slowly, I will find this wild man for you, what do you think?" You're bending it like that. Not only can't you find a real wild man. It will also wrong the good people. ”

Hao Tianbao gasped and nodded in agreement, and the housekeeper brought the Taishi chair. The maids helped Hao Tianbao sit under the eaves.

Meng Tianchu walked up to a man who was about forty years old and asked, "Are you married?" ”

"Yes, with three children. ”

"What's your relationship with Xiaohong on weekdays?"

"Although the girl is a maid, after all, she is a local person around her grandmother, and she told us that she is a big maid in the room, and grandma is going to give her to the master to be a small one, so she and us don't even have a superfluous word on weekdays, let alone have a good relationship. ”

It seems that this Xiaohong wants to be Hao Tianbao's concubine, which threatens Dao Cuilian's status, no wonder Na Cuilian will kill her.

Meng Tianchu asked a few more people one after another, and most of the content was the same, he walked to Hao Tianbao's side, found a chair and sat down, and asked, "Does Master Hao know that grandma is going to marry Xiaohong Xu to be a little one for himself?" ”

"Yes. ”

"Then why didn't you marry her in for a long time?"

"I don't like that girl's temperament very much, besides, she is a little younger, my wife said that she will wait until she is over seventeen. Anyway, I'm not at home all year round, so I didn't ask about it. ”

"What about Cuilian?"

"Cuilian she...... She was not Mrs.'s personal maid before, but once, Mrs.'s maid Xiaohong's mother died, Xiaohong asked for leave to go back to the funeral, because the road was far away, and it took nearly a month to go back and forth, and there was no one around Mrs. to take care of her. She was very intelligent and had a very sweet mouth, and I liked her, and once, Madame went to collect the rent, and we ......."

Meng Tianchu nodded, and after contact, Meng Tianchu believed that Cuilian should be very good at pleasing men.

"You said that Xiaohong left Madame for a while, when did that happen?"

Hao Tianbao thought for a while: "Anyway, it was last year's thing, I forgot the specifics, you ask Zhenjiang, that time Mrs. also asked Zhenjiang to accompany Xiaohong back, because the road is too far, Mrs. is not worried that she will go alone, it just so happens that we have a branch of Silk Village in Xiaohong's hometown, Zhenjiang is to send Xiaohong by the way, and the other is to see the branch business." ”

Meng Tianchu's heart lit up, he turned to look at Zhenjiang, and found that Zhenjiang was standing aside, his face was very ugly.

Meng Tianchu walked to Zhenjiangdi's side and smiled coldly: "Town housekeeper, you care about the little red girl very much?" ”

When Zhenjiang heard this, his face turned pale: "Master...... Master, what do you say, I don't ...... Got it. ”

"You don't understand? You just want to inquire about Xiaohong's affairs, and even don't hesitate to suspect Cuilian, so as to arouse Cuilian's doubts, that's why I started with you, hehe, if I guessed correctly. The child in the little red belly is yours! ”

Meng Tianchu's words made everyone present stunned, and Hao Tianbao even smashed the tea bowl in his hand on the ground.
