In the room of the eldest lady of the Sai family, Sai Jiangnan sat on the windowsill, pinching a wet dead leaf that floated from nowhere, tearing it apart little by little. It seems to be killing time, but the brow has never stretched.

"Big brother, I never thought that my little sister would go and return, you and my brother and sister are actually separated by yin and yang. In just two months, Jiangnan lost two close relatives in a row, and there were no wolves, tigers and leopards outside the courtyard wall, so that Jiangnan had no time to mourn. Ay! ”

Muttering to himself, Sai Jiangnan's face was as calm as a big lady.

Outside the window, Xiaolian ran over with stagnant water, and Sai Jiangnan hurriedly threw away the dead leaves and walked out: "The autopsy results are out?" ”

Xiaolian panted and nodded: "Come out and come out." The young master died of illness. ”

"Did the eldest brother really die of illness?" Sai Jiangnan frowned and returned to the room to sit down, dragging his cheeks with one hand and tapping lightly on the table with the other.

Xiaolian followed in curiously: "Miss, what are you thinking?" Madame and Suzuo both said this, don't you think there is still a problem? ”

Sai Jiangnan suddenly asked, "Are you leaving?" ”

"Not yet, get paid in the account room!"

"Let's go! Tell someone to stop the scheming! ”

……

He came out of the account room, put on the rain, put on the hat, bowed his head and hurried.

As soon as he left the door of Sai's house, he was invited back from the back door of Sai's house before he walked out of the courtyard wall of Sai's house.

He was a little weak-hearted, and looked at the two family members who stopped him: "You guys...... What are you going to do? ”

"We're just asking Mr. to come over in the name of Miss."

"Your young lady? Where's your young lady? I still have a work to do. ”

"It's all at the door. The gentleman outside still won't come in and sit down? A woman's voice came from inside the room facing her.

He looked left and right in the courtyard, and felt that it would be difficult for him to leave without going in and saying a few words, so he had to sigh and take off his hat helplessly.

This is a women's boudoir, full of beautiful objects of everyone, in front of me is a table and a maid, and a screen.

"Dada...... Da Da ...... Da Da ......"

The sound of rhythmic knuckles tapping on the table came from inside the screen, and a beautiful figure loomed.

But the seemingly soft shadow brought invisible pressure to the work, and although he didn't see anyone, he felt that he had been seen through.

"It's Miss Saijia inside, right? I wonder what the young lady is looking for me? This is the lady's boudoir, I'm afraid it's a little inappropriate for a man here, right? ”

"The little girl never felt that it was wrong, so why should the gentleman care?" The voice behind the screen continued, "Xiaolian, go out and close the door." ”

Xiaolian answered, left the room and closed the door.

In the boudoir, there are only two people, Sai Jiangnan and Qi Zuo, and there is only a screen in between.

"Miss, is there something you can say?"

"Sir, have you given my eldest brother the results of the autopsy?"

"Haven't you heard? I have already told my wife that the deceased died suddenly of tuberculosis. Nothing to do with others. ”

"Really?"

"Really."

"Dada...... Da Da ...... Da Da ......"

The sound of the regular knuckles tapping on the table sounded again.

For some reason, he felt that he was furious when he heard this, and he always felt inexplicably uneasy. After a brief conversation, he gradually found that the young lady behind the screen was very different from other young ladies, and he couldn't say what was different, so he just wanted to leave early. Just as he was about to say goodbye, the voice suddenly stopped.

"Since it has nothing to do with others, why is the gentleman in a hurry? Is it because the little girl abruptly abrupt Mr. and dislikes Mr., so she wants to leave in a hurry? ”

The young lady was serious. It is really against the laws of the court to conduct an autopsy with someone privately, so I have scruples and want to leave early. ”

"Sir, don't you mean it?"

"Why did the young lady say that?"

"Private autopsies, while contrary to the law, are not new. Mr. dared to take this job, and he was not afraid of being known by outsiders, which proved that Mr. was not worried about anything. But at this moment, there was panic, can the little woman understand that her husband did not tell the truth and felt ashamed? ”

He was shocked: "Don't talk nonsense!" The deceased did die of coughing! Miss, don't be cranky? ”

"Why is the gentleman so alarmed? If the eldest brother really died of tuberculosis, why did my mother have to pay you to come here for an autopsy? Although I could not see the body of my eldest brother, I could guess that my mother would ask her to come for an autopsy, and she must have found something incomprehensible. And now you say that your eldest brother died of tuberculosis, don't say it's me, even my mother won't let you leave so easily. And now you can leave, which can only prove that you and your mother colluded to hide the truth. ”

“……”

"What? Sir has nothing to say? ”

He clasped his hands on the screen: "After Miss is worthy of being a Saijia, I have nothing to say." But Mademoiselle didn't want to get any news from me. ”

"Aren't you afraid I'll poke this out?"

"I have promised my wife that I will not go back on my wife's word. At this time, it is all because of my greed, and I will not complain if I am punished for it. So just to be worthy of others! ”

"Worthy of people?" Sai Jiangnan let out a sneer behind the screen, "As a servant of the imperial court, you should serve the imperial court yamen." At this moment, it is disloyal to abandon the public and seek personal gain! It is unkind for you to be indifferent to my brother's tragic death and to ignore life! You have profited from the dead, and that is unrighteousness. Are you so disloyal, unkind, and unjust, and still boast of being worthy of others? How safe are you? As a servant, you should have spoken for the dead and avenged for the dead, but now you know that my eldest brother died tragically, instead of announcing the truth to the world, you don't know it, what kind of face do you have to claim to be a servant? Do you dare to see those unjust souls who died tragically after death? ”

The girl behind the screen was heartbroken, and she was sweating profusely when she had been forced to be calm, and when Sai Jiangnan finished speaking, she was already sitting on the ground with weak legs.

……

At noon, the news that the young master of the Sai family died violently due to tuberculosis has spread, and due to the impact of this incident, the popularity of delicious and delicious noon has decreased.

In the hall, Xia Shang and the Fang family brothers were no longer so busy, and they had time to chat with each other.

Fang Buyu came in from the door, saying that the Sai family had already set up the mourning hall, and he was going to keep the spirit for three days.

Seeing that there was not much work to do at noon, Xia Shang decided to go over in the afternoon to have a look.

In the afternoon, Xia Shang took his vacation brother to Sai's house. I didn't see many outsiders, but I could feel that the mourning hall was built in a hurry. The atmosphere throughout the courtyard was dreary.

The eldest lady stood aside and smiled at Xia Shang, Xia Shang nodded in response, and then slowly walked towards the mourning hall.

Kneeling on the side of the mourning hall was Qin Lan. The reason why Xia Shang was in such a hurry was mainly because he was worried about Qin Lan and wanted to know her situation.

Qin Lan's situation is not good, and the whole person has not yet recovered his soul.

Xia Shang couldn't do anything, and wanted to comfort her another day.

Thinking about it, he walked to the hall, Xia Shang went to get the incense, but was stopped by the Fang family brothers behind him: "What are you doing in the shopkeeper!" ”

"It's fragrant."

"Or! Don't give incense to those who died of illness, and they are very angry. Let's burn some paper money, and the young lady will help us incense. ”
