Chapter 480: Helper
Meng Tianchu: "Then you just listen to me, don't tell anyone about this matter first, this is a little secret between you and me, my opinion is to wait for your father to come back, you first ask your father what he means, and then tell your mother, okay?" If it doesn't affect the relationship between their husband and wife, it's not good. ”
Xiaonuo thought for a while and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you." ”
Meng Tianchu: "Give me that silk handkerchief, and I'll keep it for you, so that you don't have time to think about me as a husband when you see each other all day." ”
Xiao Nuo didn't laugh, but obediently handed the silk handkerchief to Meng Tianchu, and Meng Tianchu quickly hid it in his arms.
Feiyan called Xiaonuo out, Meng Tianchu heard the sound in the mosquito net, so he stepped forward to look, and saw Zuo Jiayin looking at him, so he sat down and said, "I thought you were asleep, did I wake you up again by talking to Xiaonuo?" ”
Zuo Jiayin shook his head lightly and said, "How long are you going to hide it from her?" ”
Meng Tianchu looked outside the door, saw Xiaonuo and Feiyan talking not far away, and said in a low voice: "Now is not the time, if it is explained now, it may be bad with Xiaonuo's personality." ”
Zuo Jiayin: "Be careful that she complains to you afterwards." ”
Meng Tianchu: "I can't take care of it, you can sleep well, I'll go see if your belly is ready?" ”
Zuo Jiayin: "Go, is there something wrong with the yamen, now that Wen Rou is gone, I am injured again, who will go to see Jian Ning?" ”
Meng Tianchu: "Yang Lezhi is dead, it's still unclear whether it was suicide or homicide, you don't have to worry about these things now, I'll find a way, sleep." ”
Meng Tianchu closed his eyes when he saw Zuo Jiayin. After a while, he fell asleep, got up and walked out of the door, told the maid at the door to speak softer, and saw that Feiyan and Xiaonuo were still talking, so he walked over.
"You've been muttering here for a long time, what are you muttering?"
Feiyan said with a smile: "I went to Sister Fengyi just now, and she asked me to discuss it with Xiaonuo, that is, the matter of Fengguan Xia on the wedding day, Sister Fengyi said that it was because Xiaonuo was a wife. It stands to reason that it can't be underestimated, Sister Fengyi asked Xue'er and Ruofan to help find a few good tailor shops, and finally ordered one for Xiaonuo to take a look. ”
Meng Tianchu saw that Xiaonuo was a little embarrassed, so he said: "Naturally, you have to be cautious, but you have to work hard these days." The yamen has another case, and I have to be busy for a few days. ”
After hearing this, Xiaonuo stood up and said, "Is it a homicide case?" ”
Meng Tianchu nodded. Said: "Lord Yang of the prefect's yamen is dead. ”
Feiyan and Xiaonuo were very surprised when they heard it, Xiaonuo: "Did you go to the scene?" How's it going? ”
Meng Tianchu smiled and said, "You can be your bride at home with peace of mind." It's just you, when the girl's family wants to leave the cabinet, she locks herself at home every day and sews a dowry for herself, what about you? ”
Xiao Nuo pursed his lips and said disdainfully: "You know that I am not good at those things, and I told my master the day before yesterday, but I will not go to the capital either, so the matter of learning martial arts can not be delayed any longer." ”
Meng Tianchu pretended to say: "There are already two master wives in the family, and there are more of you." I can be very insecure. ”
Xiao Nuo stretched out his pink fist, put the pestle under Meng Tianchu's nose, and said, "It's just that you don't dare to bully us." ”
Meng Tianchu seemed to suddenly think of something, and said, "Xiaonuo, what has your master been busy with lately?" ”
Xiaonuo: "Didn't you go back to the Yin family's cottage a few days ago, saying that the Yin family's grandmother was sick." I only came back the day before yesterday. At home. ”
Meng Tianchu simply sat down and said, "Can you ask your master to do me a favor?" ”
Xiaonuo: "Go and see Miss Jane?" ”
Meng Tianchu scratched the tip of Xiaonuo's nose. smiled: "You can guess anything as you are clever, do you think it's okay?" ”
Xiaonuo patted his chest and said, "No problem, wrap it on me, I'll go back now and let the master come over." After speaking, he got up to leave, but suddenly stopped again, and said, "I think it's better for me to go to the yamen with you first, you must need someone to do something for you at this time, right?" ”
Meng Tianchu: "You, I just told you, you can stay at home and be your land..."
Xiaonuo interrupted Meng Tianchu's words, pretended to be pitiful, walked to Meng Tianchu's side, and said angrily: "No, I'm going to go with you, but it's okay for Sister Feiyan to give me an idea about the wedding dress, okay." ”
Meng Tianchu: "No! ”
Xiao Nuo simply turned his head and said angrily: "Then I won't go to my master, see who goes to see Miss Jane, and let you be here alone in a hurry." ”
Feiyan smiled and said, "Giggles, Tianchu, I always find someone to treat you, I think you should take Xiaonuo with you, but aren't there still Sister Fengyi and me at home?" Besides, Ruofan will come over to help at noon, so you can leave with confidence. ”
Meng Tianchu: "If you want to come?" ”
Xiaonuo has always eaten some vinegar from this beautiful sister, and when she saw Meng Tianchu so surprised, she said, "What, people are coming, don't you want to leave?" ”
Meng Tianchu and Feiyan smiled, and Meng Tianchu said, "You, you, how can I say hello?" People are also housekeepers at home, and they are always busy, and I mean don't always bother people. ”
Xiao Nuo snorted and said, "I don't know about you yet." ”
Feiyan walked up to Xiao Nuo, put her arm around Xiao Nuo's shoulder, and said, "If Tianchu really wants to lead Ruo Fan into the door, what should you do?" ”
Meng Tianchu hurriedly interrupted Feiyan and said, "Don't open any pot without mentioning it." ”
Xiao Nuo said dissatisfiedly: "Whatever he wants, on the contrary, he is also going to marry my master, saying that maybe one day he will also take a fancy to Miss Jane, and bring him into the house together, wouldn't that be more lively?" ”
Meng Tianchu nodded Feiyan, signaled that her fast-talking problem had been committed again, and hurriedly walked to Xiaonuo's side, and said, "Okay, okay, aren't you just going to be with my yamen?" Don't ramble, we'll go now. ”
Xiaonuo: "I'm not going." ”
Meng Tianchu knew that Xiaonuo was angry, so he said, "Really not going?" ”
Xiaonuo said dryly: "Don't go!" ”
Meng Tianchu deliberately sighed. "Okay then, I'll go." Then he deliberately said to himself: "This is also strange, how can a person die after drinking a little wine?" Is it still harmful to someone like this? ”
When Xiao Nuo heard this, he couldn't help but be curious, stepped forward, and said, "That Lord Yang let the wine be poured to death?" ”
Meng Tianchu deliberately ignored it, Xiao Nuo took Meng Tianchu's hand and said, "Tell me about it." ”
Meng Tianchu squinted at Xiao Nuo and said, "Aren't you uninterested?" ”
Xiao Nuo punched Meng Tianchu. Said: "I hate it! ”
Jian Qi hurriedly came to Jian Ning's house, Jian Ning had just finished taking a bath, the maid stood there and combed her hair, Jian Ning in the mirror became more and more pale and emaciated, she gently wiped the rouge on her face, and the maid saw Jian Qi come in. Quickly put down the comb and bow down.
Jian Qi was impatient to let all the maids retreat, Jian Ning looked at Jian Qi coldly, picked up the comb and wanted to comb her hair. Jian Qi rushed over and snatched the comb from Jian Ning's hand and threw it downstairs.
Jian Ning got up with a smile and said softly, "Dad, what's wrong with you?" ”
Jian Qi let out a long sigh. Almost in a pleading tone, he said to Jian Ning: "Ling'er, Daddy begs you, what do you want to do in the future, what do you want to do, Dad depends on you, but if you still play petty with me this time, it will not only be Daddy, but the whole family may suffer." You'd better hurry up and hand over the ledger to me, or you're going to die. ”
Jian Ning: "Dad, it seems that you still don't believe me as a daughter, if you don't believe me, you can kill me, that account book is really not with me." ”
Jian Qi: "Then I'll tell you." Yang Le is dead! ”
Jian Ning was stunned when she heard this. Then he said, "What, Lord Yang is dead? ”
Jian Qi nodded heavily. Sitting on the chair, he touched his bright forehead with one hand, and said: "It seems that I guessed correctly, the person who wants this account book is not me Jian Qi alone, I went to find Yang Lezhi this morning He has died at home, and I almost collided with Meng Tianchu." ”
When Jian Ning heard the name Meng Tianchu, her heart warmed, and she pretended to ask casually, "What is Master Meng going to do?" ”
Jian Qi smiled and said: "Yang Lezhi is his subordinate, and I think he also wants to get that account book, so that he can ask the emperor for merit and take the opportunity to become an official and become a knight."
Jian Ning: "Then daddy means that Lord Meng took away the account book?" ”
Jian Qi shook his head and said, "I found someone to keep an eye on them, and Meng Tianchuti didn't mention the account book, although he entered Yang Lezhi's room, he only took away some irrelevant things, such as cups and tables, and there was no account book for me." ”
Jian Ning: "Then why don't you find someone to take the opportunity to take a look in the house, is it hidden in some other hidden place?" ”
Jian Qi looked at Jian Ning steadily, Jian Ning's eyes bravely met the other party, Jian Qi finally surrendered, looked away, and said: "If the account book is really in Yang Lezhi's place, then it seems that the person who killed Yang Lezhi is also going to the account book, and now we must find the murderer before Meng Tianchu, so that we can find the account book one step ahead of him." ”
Jian Ning sat back in her seat, picked up another comb from the dresser and casually combed the green silk on her head.
Jian Qi looked at Jian Ning's back and thought for a while, then suddenly got up and walked to Jian Ning's side, put his hands on Jian Ning's shoulders, and said softly: "Forget it, everything can be over, Dad won't ask you in the future, you take care of your body, take someone you believe in wherever you want to go, Dad will never interfere with you anymore." After speaking, he let out a long sigh and slowly left Jian Ning's room.
The maid then walked in with a comb and asked in a low voice, "Miss, is the master's anger gone?" ”
Jian Ning sneered and said, "No, his anger has just begun." ”
The maid was puzzled, and was about to ask Jian Ning, but Jian Ning stood up, walked outside the door and looked at her father's back from the attic, and didn't say a word for a long time.
Meng Tianchu took Xiaonuo directly to the mortuary of the Yamen, Xiaonuo prepared everything with ease, and waited for Meng Tianchu to dissect it.
After Meng Tianchu put it on, he pointed to Yang Lezhi's corpse and said to Xiao Nuo: "Before the autopsy, I want you to tell me what you think after seeing the corpse. ”
He put down the pen and paper in his hand, walked over to the corpse and looked at it carefully. After a while, he said: "It shouldn't be poisoned to death, there is no bleeding in the seven orifices, and there are no traces of external injuries."
Meng Tianchu nodded approvingly and said, "Then how long have you been dead from the corpse?" ”
Xiao Nuo pressed the skin of the deceased and said, "It's been more than twelve hours." ”
Meng Tianchu put on his gloves and said with a smile: "It's good, you learn very quickly, if you are a man, I have the heart to teach you anatomy." ”
Xiaonuo: "It's not that I don't dare. If you teach, I will naturally learn the earth, and it is not necessarily worse than you, the master. ”
Meng Tianchu: "I completely believe this, but you want to be my wife after all, so ah, don't touch these bloody things." Alright, let's get started. ”
Xiaonuo nodded obediently.
Coming out of the mansion, Meng Tianchu didn't say anything all the way, Xiao Nuo: "Tianchu." Are you still thinking about the results of the previous autopsy, and feel that there are some things that make you puzzled? ”
Meng Tianchu: "Mrs. Yang said that Yang Lezhi doesn't drink, but how about his liver..."
Xiaonuo: "You mean from the liver of other places. Shouldn't he be a non-drinker? ”
Meng Tianchu snorted and said, "Not only do you want to drink, but the days of drinking are not short, and there are obvious ulcers in the stomach and intestines, shouldn't Yang Lezhi not know his body?" ”
Xiaonuo: "What is an ulcer?" ”
Meng Tianchu came back to his senses at this time, and quickly explained: "Hehe, it's the place that has rotted. ”
Only then did Xiaonuo come to his senses and said, "Does that have anything to do with his death?" ”
Meng Tianchu: "We checked the food in the stomach and found no signs of poisoning. It is very likely that alcohol kills people. ”
Xiao Nuo was very surprised, and said, "Can you drink the dead?" ”
Meng Tianchu smiled and said, "Of course, tomorrow I will check the wine on the table and the wine in the glass, if I don't find anything suspicious, then it is a problem with the wine." ”
Xiaonuo: "You've said it all. There were no signs of poisoning. And what else is there to see about wine? ”
Meng Tianchu: "Some wine itself is not toxic, but people with a bad liver or a bad stomach can drink too much and cause wine poisoning. ”
Xiaonuo: "So strange? ”
Meng Tianchu smiled. "So you have to remember, don't be greedy." ”
Xiaonuo snorted: "I don't know who to say this sentence to." ”
Meng Tianchu smiled happily.
As soon as it was dark, Xiao Nuo brought Yin Susu to Meng Tianchu's mansion and had dinner just in time. Meng Tianchu invited the two of them together, Yin Susu was also generous Since the last time Ke'er's incident, Yin Susu obviously didn't have that for Meng Tianchu, but it was still uncertain, making Meng Tianchu unpredictable. There was no word during the banquet.
Now the people who eat are only Meng Tianchu, Fengyi Feiyan and the nurse with Jin'er, very boring, after everyone has eaten, Feiyan went to Jiayin, and the nurse also left with the child, Meng Tianchu saw that Fengyi was also lazy, so he let the maid help her go back to rest.
Meng Tianchu took Xiaonuo and Yin Susu to his study, and then asked someone to call Chai Meng and Tulong to discuss the affairs of the evening.
Yin Susu listened and said, "I don't need Chai Meng and Dragon Slayer to help me, I'll just go by myself." ”
Meng Tianchu: "No, Jia Yin was injured last time, I can't let you take this risk." ”
Yin Susu said expressionlessly: "You let me go, you have already let me take risks, I think the third lady would not have been injured if it wasn't for the rescue of the second lady, I don't need to be burdensome." ”
Chai Meng and Tulong were used to Yin Susu's way of talking, and they didn't mind, but Meng Tianchu said: "They are the same as the girl, you have the same kung fu, and they went to help you, how can they be a burden?" ”
Yin Susu: "Then you let them go, I won't go." ”
Xiao Nuo said on the side: "Okay, okay, Tianchu, since my master has this certainty, you can let her go alone." ”
What else did Meng Tianchu say, Xiao Nuo gave him a look, Meng Tianchu understood, and nodded in agreement.
Yin Susu walked beside him, Meng Tianchu: "Miss Yin, then Yang Lezhi Yang said that he would die, maybe the Jian Mansion has been on guard, so..."
Yin Susu went out and flew to the room. Only two words remained: "Boom! ”
Meng Tianchu looked at the three people around him helplessly, and Xiao Nuo comforted: "I, Chai Meng and Slaying Dragon are following behind her, just answer her like last time, don't worry." ”
Meng Tianchu's eyes widened and said, "Are you still going?" ”
Xiaonuo: "I naturally want to go, how can I be missing to save people?" ”
Tu Long said with a smile: "Madame, don't go, Chai Meng and I will go, you are about to be a bride, there must be no mistakes at this time." ”
Xiao Nuo listened to the dragon slayer jokingly call his wife. His face turned red all of a sudden, and he said, "Bold minion, you tease me too." ”
Dragon Slayer: "It's only been a few days, and there's nothing to shout now." After speaking, Xiao Nuo's pink fist had already jumped out of the door before he could shoot.
Chai Meng said with a smile: "Slaying the dragon is right, you should stay at home, and it will be enough for the two of us to go." ”
Meng Tianchu thought for a moment. Said: "Forget it, don't go to the two of you." ”
Xiaonuo: "Why? ”
Meng Tianchu: "The old thief Jian Qi naturally thought that Yang Lezhi died because of the account book, so what he is most worried about now is that I will get this account book first, so I should be stricter than anyone else." He knows the two of you, so don't go. ”
Xiaonuo: "What about my master?" ”
Meng Tianchu: "Don't worry, your master's kung fu is so good." There should be no problem. ”
Xiaonuo was not happy, and said: "No, you are partial, Sister Jiayin, you don't worry, if the master goes, you won't let us pick it up, you clearly don't care about my master's life or death." You are eccentric! ”
Meng Tianchu couldn't cry or laugh, and was about to speak, when he saw Feiyan come over and said, "Tianchu, Miss Yin asked me to tell you, she took away the monkeys in the yard." ”
Meng Tianchu understood now. Said to Xiaonuo: "Look at it. Your master knows how to find a helper, and that helper is definitely not a burden. You know? ”
After hearing this, Xiao Nuo stopped talking, but Meng Tianchu couldn't help but secretly admire Yin Susu.
Jian Ning looked bored in the house, and the guards in front of the door and the guards downstairs Jian Qi really withdrew, but Jian Ning naturally wouldn't be fooled, she would rather walk back and forth in the house alone than take a step downstairs.
Old mother: "Miss, can you not go anymore, my eyes are spent." ”
Jian Ning stopped, walked to the old mother with a smile and whispered, "Then what do you say I am not going to do if I don't leave?" ”
The old mother smiled, and while sewing a jacket for Jian Ning, she said, "Miss looks like she's waiting for someone." ”
Jian Ning listened, and quickly signaled the old mother to speak quieter, then walked to the door and looked, then turned around and walked to the old mother's side and whispered, "Be careful that the wall has ears." The old mother secretly covered her mouth and smiled.
It was finally dark, the old mother lit the oil lamp and candles, Jian Ning finally sat down and picked up a copy of the "History Book" and read it, suddenly someone downstairs was shouting something, Jian Ning didn't move, but the old mother put down the needle and thread in her hand and ran to the front of the building to take a look, and then hurriedly returned to the house and said to Jian Ning: "Miss, why is there a fire in the front yard, it's so thick smoke, should we go and see?" ”
Jian Ning's eyes never left the book, but smiled indifferently and said, "Let's close the door and do our own thing, does this family have anything to do with us?" ”
The old mother saw that Jian Ning had no intention of closing the matter, so she had to walk to the door and prepare to close the door, when suddenly a figure flashed in front of the old mother's eyes, and before the old mother could react, the door was closed.
Jian Ning also saw it with the peripheral vision of her eyes, so she turned around, took a closer look, and was startled, it turned out to be not a person, but a monkey looking around.
Old mother: "Oh my God, where did this monkey come from, it's still wearing clothes, is it from some troupe, just get rid of it." ”
Unexpectedly, the monkey jumped onto Jian Ning's table and looked at Jian Ning in a daze, Jian Ning instinctively leaned back, the monkey took out a note from his clothes pocket and gave it to Jian Ning, Jian Ning hesitated, but finally finished over, unfolded it, immediately smiled, and said to the old mother: "Don't rush, you go out and keep an eye on me, I have something to say to this monkey." The old mother thought that Jian Ning was crazy, and said, "Miss, it's a brute, how can it speak?" ”
Seeing that the monkey barked his teeth viciously at the old mother, Jian Ning smiled and said, "Let you go, you can go quickly." ”
The old mother saw that the monkey was also clever and seemed to be able to understand human speech, so she hurried out.
After putting the note on the candle and burning it, Jian Ning said to the monkey, "I'll ask you to bring me a letter to him, is that okay?" ”
The monkey nodded sensibly, then picked up an apple from the plate on the table, sniffed it, and then ate it
Jian Ning smiled and said, "I didn't expect him to have such a spiritual little thing by his side, so you can eat it, I'll write it quickly." Just as he was about to take the pen, he suddenly turned to the monkey and said, "Did you set the fire in the front yard?" ”
The monkey made a shushing gesture as he put his finger to his lips while eating the apple, and Jian Ning smiled happily, sat down and began to write.
As soon as the letter was written, suddenly the old mother rushed in and said, "Oh no, the old man has come here with some people." ”
Before Jian Ning could react, she saw the monkey reach out and snatch the letter from Jian Ning's hand, and then carefully put the apple core she had eaten in her pocket, and then quickly patted Jian Ning, as if to comfort her, she jumped from the window, and the old mother ran out of the window to take a look, only to see that the little thing had jumped onto a tree, and soon there was no trace.
Jian Ning motioned to the old mother to close the window quickly, sat back in her position, picked up the book, Jian Qi walked in, first looked around, then showed a smile, walked to Jian Ning's side and said, "Ning'er, are you reading?" ”
Jian Ning raised her head, nodded to Jian Qi with a smile, and said, "Yes, history books." ”
