Chapter 347: Lunch
Yang Qiuchi and the others returned to their residence, entered the back room, and saw that Song Yun'er had not come back yet, and the investigation and visit was a very meticulous work.
Seeing Yang Qiuchi coming back, Hong Aya hurriedly greeted him and said hurriedly: "A few servants and family members just came, and sent Peng Si's body and put it in a room on the other side of the small courtyard. I didn't let them go, they had to let it go, and they said it was you, sir......"
"Hehe, I asked them to send it."
"Huh?" Red Aya was taken aback, "I thought they were talking nonsense." It turns out that it's really a ......, let a dead man in this courtyard......"
Yang Qiuchi smiled and rubbed her face: "What? Isn't it bad luck? ”
For ordinary people, it is indeed somewhat unacceptable for a dead person to be placed in his own residence.
Hong Aya nodded, and then quickly shook her head: "This is the master's job, the master asked them to move to the room, of course it is for good intentions, there is nothing unlucky." ”
Yang Qiuchi patted her on the shoulder: "I also have to do it." There was a murder last night, I just went to investigate the scene, examined the body, and I haven't even figured out how this person died, I was in such a hurry, so I simply asked them to carry the body here, and wanted to study it slowly. ”
Hearing Yang Qiuchi say that the case was in trouble, Hong Aya asked with concern, "Master, is this matter very tricky?" ”
"Well, I haven't figured out how this person died, you said thorny or not."
"So, what about that?"
"Scrambled eggs with rodish shreds!" Yang Qiuchi smiled bitterly.
"What?" Red Aya looked at him with wide eyes.
"It's nothing, I asked Yun'er to investigate the situation, wait for her to come back and see if she finds anything, and then decide what to do next." Yang Qiuchi said, looked out the window, and asked, "Where did they put the corpse?" ”
Hongya walked to the window and pointed to the row of bungalows opposite, "There it is." Picking up a key from the table, "This is the key to that room, which I just delivered." ”
Yang Qiuchi took it, looked at Hong Aya and said with a smile: "I'm going to take a look, will you accompany me?" ”
“…… All right. Red Aya replied in a low voice, her face slightly pale.
Yang Qiuchi knew that Hong Aya was also afraid of seeing dead people, which was normal, but all women were not interested in this, of course, women who were interested in seeing dead people, especially women who were examined by corpses, I am afraid that only Song Yun'er was the best. He smiled and said, "I'm kidding you, I've already checked it at the dock just now." There's no need to look at it now. Wait for Yun'er to come back and see if there is any need to recheck. ”
Only then did Hong Aya breathe a sigh of relief, and glanced at Yang Qiuchi, her face flushed.
This beautiful girl can die with herself without hesitation, but when it comes to accompanying her to investigate the body, although she agreed, her face turned white with fright. It's interesting to think about.
After chatting for a while, a servant came to report that Peng Hexi had invited Yang Qiuchi and them over for lunch.
Song Yun'er never came back, Yang Qiuchi was a little worried, and ordered Xia Ping to send two guards to find it.
After the guards went out under the leadership of Jia Ding, they came back soon after, saying that Song Yun'er was investigating and visiting the pharmacy, saying that there was no need to wait for her, she had already eaten and would continue to investigate.
It turned out that when they came last night, Peng Hexi organized many people in the town to greet them, so many people knew Song Yun'er and knew that she was the person next to the earl Zhizhou, and later the news from the servants of Pengjiazhuang everyone knew that this sassy and heroic little girl turned out to be the sister of the earl.
In addition, Song Yun'er has a sweet mouth, a cute person, and a background, so whenever the people in the town are asked by her, not only do she ask what she answers, she knows everything, but also rushes to invite her to her home for dinner. Being able to invite the sister of the earl Zhizhou to have a meal at home, for the people in this town, wow, it is a blessing accumulated by the ancestors for eight generations. Therefore, Song Yun'er doesn't have to worry about not eating at all.
Since Song Yun'er said so, Yang Qiuchi was relieved, and came to Peng Hexi's courtyard with Hong Aya and personal guards.
Peng Hexi had already greeted him at the door, Yang Qiuchi looked from afar, and saw a little boy and three women standing behind Peng Hexi, one of whom was the beautiful woman who had just seen kicking shuttlecocks with a few maidservants on the garden grass.
Only then did I walk in and see clearly, the other two women behind Peng Hexi were Peng Hexi's two daughters who I saw last night, according to the news that Song Yun'er heard, I now know that these two daughters were born to Peng Hexi's ex-wife.
Yang Qiuchi smiled and said, "Peng Weng personally greeted him, which is really polite." ”
"It's an old honor." Peng Hexi bowed his hand, first introduced Yang Qiuchi to the beautiful woman, and then introduced the beautiful woman to Yang Qiuchi and said, "Sir, this is a cheap one." ”
Yang Qiuchi thought that he had guessed well, it was really Peng Hexi's wife, that is, the woman named Shui Wanqi who Song Yuner heard singing. stepped forward and arched his hand: "I've seen Mrs. Peng." ”
Shui Wanqi bowed and said softly: "Concubine Wanqi has seen the lord." ”
Peng Hexi called a six or seven-year-old boy to Yang Qiuchi and said, "This is a dog, named Peng Jiafu." He bowed his head and said to the little boy, "Fu'er, hurry up and meet the lord." ”
The child tilted his head and looked at Yang Qiuchi, and was about to speak, when he saw Hong Aya at a glance, he cheered, bypassed Yang Qiuchi, ran over and took her hand and said, "Sister, you are so beautiful, can you play with Fu'er?" ”
Red Aya touched his head and said, "Okay." ”
Peng Hexi was very embarrassed and scolded: "Fu'er! Don't mess around, don't come and meet the lord soon! ”
"I don't!" The child was very naughty, holding Red Aya's hand and not letting go, and grimacing at his father.
"You turtle son, Lao Tzu, beat you to death!" Peng Hexi was angry, he didn't choose what to say, and scolded his son, even the turtle son.
Yang Qiuchi smiled and stopped: "That's it, Peng Weng, he's just a child." It's okay. Peng Hexi apologized vigorously, and kept teaching Peng Jiafu a lesson.
Shui Wanqi beckoned and said, "Fu'er, don't be naughty, come to your mother's place quickly." ”
The child listened to his mother's words very much, oh, looked up at Hong Aya, and then walked back to Shui Wanqi.
Only then did Peng Hexi and others welcome Yang Qiuchi and his party into the room.
At the banquet, everyone gossiped some gossip, and also mentioned Peng Si, saying that his sudden death was a bit of a surprise. Yang Qiuchi took the opportunity to inquire about Peng Si's situation, and learned that Peng Si usually lived in his small house near the dock in order to facilitate the supervision of the workers, and did not often come to Pengjiazhuang.
Yang Qiuchi noticed that when talking about Peng Si, Shui Wanqi's face was gloomy, she rarely spoke, and there was a hint of disdain at the corner of her mouth. I can't help but think of the conversation between the two maids I overheard in the rockery just now. It seems that there may be some conflict and entanglement between this woman and Peng Si.
Everyone talked about tomorrow's "Fairy Festival", and now Shui Wanqi smiled at this time, and everyone talked about the lively situation of the Fairy Festival in previous years, Peng Hexi said that he also invited Zhao Xinle, the governor of Boryeong Prefecture, to watch tomorrow's "Fairy Festival".
Yang Qiuchi was slightly stunned, he hadn't heard Peng Hexi say it, he had a general impression of this Zhao Xinle, and he only remembered that he was very good at sycophancy.
After lunch, Yang Qiuchi returned to his residence with Red Aya.
In the afternoon, Yang Qiuchi and Hong Aya were talking in the room. Song Yun'er finally came back bouncing, and smiled at Yang Qiuchi when she entered the door: "Brother, guess what, what did I find in my investigation?" ”
"Yun'er is out of the horse, a top two, then you still need to guess. Good news. ”
Hong Aya poured a cup of hot tea for Song Yun'er, Song Yun'er fanned the wind with her hand, and said, "No, no, no, this tea is too hot, I'm so tired after running all day, I'm going to die of thirst." ”
Red Aya hurriedly ran to pour her a glass of warm water. Song Yun'er took it, drank it dry, and breathed a long sigh of relief, then she grinned, sat down at the table, and said, "Brother, I really heard a lot of interesting news this time." ”
Yang Qiuchi didn't speak, looked at her with a smile, and waited for her next step.
"This Peng Si only came to Pengjiazhuang two years ago, and he said that he was not sick, although his back was a little hunched, but his health was very good, and Lang Chinese medicine shops said that Peng Si had almost never looked for a disease."
"Oh?" Yang Qiuchi's heart moved, the more this kind of person, the easier it is to die suddenly, because this kind of person usually does not get sick, so the body's immune system can not be exercised regularly, once a serious illness appears, the body can not quickly enter the role tissue to resist; In addition, because this kind of person does not get sick often, even if it is a little sick, it is often easy to ignore it, resulting in disasters being buried, and when the same quantity of change produces qualitative change, there is no way to return to heaven.
Song Yun'er continued: "This Peng Si is not popular in the town, I have checked this day, and I have never heard anyone say that he is good." There are still people scolding him, this is already for everyone's sake. ”
"What bad things did he do?"
"Everyone is reluctant to say it, after all, he is the family of Old Man Peng, and Old Man Peng is still very prestigious in this town. Therefore, I didn't ask about any real illegal and bad things about Peng Si. Song Yun'er was a little frustrated that she couldn't ask the result, "However, according to what everyone said, it is certain that this Peng Si is very." ”
"Lustful? What kind of man isn't, what's so strange about that. ”
