The cicadas in the courtyard chirp and stop, occasionally accompanied by the frogs in the creek in front of Sufu.

Unconsciously, the lotus flowers in the river have shown sharp corners, but everyone is busy investigating the murder, and no one has seen if there are dragonflies standing on their heads.

In the evening of this day, Lin Yun followed Zhao Qing back, at that time, the sky was cloudy, a trace of wind blew, the willows in the courtyard were flying, everyone was in the courtyard to enjoy the shade, watching the sunset, after seeing Lin Yun, they were all immediately excited, Nangong Yan asked first, "What did you investigate?" ”

Lin Yun grinned and said: "Hui husband ** person, there are a lot of investigations, this Zhao Qing, he is really addicted to gambling, I followed him for a long time, he actually gambled in the casino for a long time, and then lost all the money, and wanted to gamble on credit, but the people in the casino saw that he had no money, and his father was killed again, so he said that he had no financial support, and he didn't give gambling, and if he wanted to gamble, he had to take out the cash, so he left the casino." ”

After listening to what Lin Yun said, Su Wuming bowed his head slightly, and said, "It seems that what Old Madam Huang said is not true at all, this Zhao Qing is really not a good master." ”

"That's right, yes, when I first saw him, I felt that he was quite pitiful, but now, ah, I just feel hateful!" Tang Xiong echoed on the side, and everyone nodded again and again.

At this time, Su Wuming glanced at Lin Yun and said, "Go on!" ”

Lin Yun nodded: "In addition to this, I inquired about Zhao Qing's situation, he is Zhao Bo's only son, and his mother died when he was very young, so Zhao Bo loves him very much, he wants to give everything, which causes Zhao Qing's gambling vice, every time Zhao Qing loses money, Zhao Bo hates it very much, but although he hates it, in the end he still pays his own money to pay back his son's account, tsk, what a loving father and how defeated!" ”

After Lin Yun finished speaking, he seemed to be very emotional.

Su Wuming only frowned and asked, "Then Uncle Zhao's wife has been dead for so many years, and he hasn't renewed the string?" ”

Lin Yun nodded: "No, I heard that Uncle Zhao's wife used to be a maid in the Huang Mansion, and it was given to Mrs. Huang for marriage, although it was a marriage, but the relationship between the two was very good. ”

Su Wuming bowed his head slightly, and said with a smile: "This Uncle Zhao is really an infatuated lover!" ”

"Yes, this Uncle Zhao is indeed quite infatuated, unlike that Huang Shicheng, after his wife died, he immediately accepted a few concubines, but this is also reasonable, who made his family rich, he is the master!" Lin Yun said casually, but after finishing speaking, he seemed to find that he had some words, and quickly shut up.

The sunset is over, the bright moon is rising in the east, tomorrow should be a good day, Wen Wan'er saw that Lin Yun had finished talking about all the investigations, so she asked, "You haven't eaten yet, have you?" ”

Lin Yun touched his head a little embarrassed, and didn't know how to answer for a while, as if it was because Wen Wan'er was too beautiful, which made him a little nervous, Qiao'er saw Lin Yun so embarrassed, and suddenly laughed: "If you eat, you won't eat, why do you keep touching your head, you used to be a big internal guard, why are you so unhappy!" ”

Being reprimanded by Qiao'er, Lin Yun's face couldn't help but turn red, and then he was even more embarrassed, Su Wuming saw him like this, and said with a smile: "Okay, Lin Yun has been busy for a long time, he must be hungry, go and cook some food for him, get a few pots of good wine, and Brother Su and I will accompany him to drink a few glasses." ”

When Lin Yun heard this, he was a little panicked: "Master Su, this can't be helped, I'm just a subordinate!" ”

Hearing Lin Yun's words, Tang Xiong was not happy, and said: "What kind of subordinate is not inferior, when did Brother Su see you as a subordinate, if you are a subordinate, won't my old Tang also become a subordinate?" ”

Tang Xiong was angry, Lin Yun didn't know what to say, he used to be a guard in the palace, although it sounded quite face-saving, but every day he was trembling, everyone in the palace was a subordinate, when was he called a brother and friend by officials?

Just when Lin Yun was at a loss, Su Wuming smiled and said, "Okay, okay, everyone is friends in private, why bother to see each other like this, two ladies, go and bring the wine and food!" ”

The bright moon rises in the east, the cicadas chirp, and the glasses of wine are staggered.

At noon the next day, Jiang Ying came back from Yanguan County, and after seeing Su Wuming, he immediately told him what he had investigated.

"After going to Yanguan County, I found the family that Yuan Rong borrowed before, that family has indeed been defeated, and there is only an old mother and a cousin of Yuan Rong's uncle's family left, I am afraid that they will be suspicious, so I pretended to be someone from Huangfu to pick up Yuan Rong, they were very surprised after hearing it, saying that Yuan Rong rushed to the Waterfall Tower after receiving the letter from Huangfu, and asked me if I didn't meet it? I saw that what they said was not bad at all, so I hurried back, but when I arrived at the Waterfall Tower, I suddenly thought that Yuan Rong might leave in the middle of the night, so I went into the Waterfall Tower and asked. ”

Seeing that Jiang Ying was doing things so safely, Su Wuming was very appreciative, and after nodding, he hurriedly asked, "Then what did you find?" ”

Jiang Ying nodded and said: "I asked the shop guy if he had an impression of Yuan Rong, the shop guy said that Yuan Rong had been in a hurry that night, as if he was waiting for someone, and then it rained, and there were not many guests in the Waterfall Building, so he chatted with Yuan Rong for a few words, and then he didn't go back to the house to rest until very late, after I listened, I asked the guy again, is it possible for Yuan Rong to leave the Waterfall Building in the middle of the night, and then come back, the shopkeeper looked surprised, and said that it was impossible, and said that he slept on the first floor, if someone left and came in, he must know. ”

"In this way, there is no doubt that Yuan Rong is really there, and it is impossible for her to leave the Waterfall Tower to kill Uncle Zhao!" After listening to Jiang Ying's words, Nangong Yan hurriedly said, and after finishing speaking, she set her eyes on Su Wuming, as if asking for his consent.

Su Wuming only smiled lightly and said, "Since these have been investigated, let's go to the Huang Mansion again and see if the Huang family son has anything to say, Jiang Ying has just come back, just rest in the mansion and let Lin Yun accompany you." ”

After saying this, Su Wuming took Tang Xiong and Nangong Yan to the Huang Mansion.

After entering the Huang Mansion, Huang Hong immediately greeted him, and said slightly apologetically that the store was too busy yesterday, so Su Wuming waited for a long time.

This Huang Hong is a talent, and he is very mature and steady, giving people an indescribable comfortable feeling, after he led Su Wuming and others to sit down in the living room, he hurriedly said: "Uncle Zhao was killed, it was really unexpected by me, Uncle Zhao is usually very peaceful in the house, and he is also very good to his subordinates, I really can't think of anyone who will kill him." ”

Su Wuming bowed slightly, and asked, "I heard that Uncle Zhao begged you to let his son Zhao Qing be the shopkeeper of the branch, I don't know what Huang Gongzi thinks about this matter?" ”

Huang Hong's face sank slightly, and said: "Then Zhao Qing has a gambling nature, and it is really not good for our Huang family's business to let him be the shopkeeper, but my father has already agreed when he is still here, so I can't object, so I thought that after my father's funeral and the business of the store is stable, let Zhao Qing go to the store to try to do it for a while, if he can repent, then let him continue to do it, but if he doesn't repent, it will be a tear of face with Uncle Zhao, I can't let the Huang family's shop have such black sheep. ”

Huang Hong's words are neither humble nor arrogant, and it can be heard that he is also an extremely good businessman, Su Wuming couldn't help but have a good impression of him after listening to Huang Hong's words.

It's just that although I have a good feeling, I still have to ask.

"So does Huang Gongzi want Qin Er to be the shopkeeper?"

Huang Hong was a little surprised, his face changed slightly, and said: "I do have this plan, Qin Er is the second housekeeper in my Huang Mansion, and he is not very busy every day, and his ability is good, so I thought about letting him go to the store to help, but now that Uncle Zhao is dead, the Huang Mansion needs to be taken care of up and down, so I am ready to let Qin Er be the big housekeeper, and the shopkeeper will let Zhao Qing do it first, see how he performs!" ”

After Huang Hong said this, he suddenly asked, "Listen to my grandmother, Lord Su is suspicious of Qin Er?" ”

Su Wuming smiled: "In the entire Huang Mansion, Qin Er is the only one who has a conflict of interest with Uncle Zhao, isn't it?" ”

Huang Hong nodded again and again: "That's true, but the night Uncle Zhao was killed, Qin Er was with me in the first half of the night, I want him to help calculate some accounts, I think he shouldn't have time to go out of the city to kill people, right?" ”

"If that's the case, then Qin Er really doesn't have the time and opportunity to kill!" Su Wuming smiled and didn't raise any questions about what Huang Hong said.

Seeing Su Wuming say this, Huang Hong smiled easily.

At this time, Su Wuming suddenly asked, "Huang Gongzi has seen Miss Yuan Rong Yuan?" ”

Huang Hong nodded: "I've seen Sister Yuan, it seems to be thinner than before, but girls, when they were young, they were a little baby fat, and when they got older, they loved beauty and liked to be thinner." ”

Su Wuming smiled: "It seems that Huang Gongzi and Miss Yuan are a natural pair, so fateful!" ”

Huang Hong's face was slightly red, and said: "In front of the soda disturbance, I won't hide it, in fact, I have liked Yuan Mei since I was a child, my mother saw me like this, so she told her uncle to marry, I didn't understand what it meant to marry, but when I heard that I could be with Yuan Mei for a long time, I didn't sleep all night!" ”

Seeing such a mature and steady person like Huang Hong say such a thing, Su Wuming thought to himself, this Huang Hong really likes Yuan Rong.

"In addition to being thin, does Huang Gongzi have any other feelings about Miss Yuan?"

Huang Hong didn't understand why Su Wuming asked this question, he frowned slightly, thought about it, and said, "I have seen a little outside, and I am a little gentler, unlike when I was a child, I always followed the call of my cousin and cousin!" ”

"After all, when you're older, you can still be like when you were a child, and you don't know your identity!" Su Wuming smiled like a person who came over at this time.

Huang Hong also smiled and nodded: "That's true, but I really like her gentleness!" ”
