Chapter 21: Death
"Little master, the slave maid went over there to investigate carefully and found some clues, but after following the clues and leaving the house, I finally found the place where the little maid was staying, but I found that there was a large group of people around there, and there were officials shouting left and right."
In the afternoon, Yao's mother returned to the small courtyard and reported the situation with an ugly face, "I stepped forward to ask, only to know that a person died nearby, I secretly screamed in my heart, squeezed forward to take a look, and sure enough, the deceased was quite similar to the girl you described."
And I heard from the neighbors on the left and right that that girl had just been assassinated. ”
When Jiang Long heard this, his eyes slowly narrowed, and he wanted to assassinate his own people, what a ruthless method!
If he couldn't make a plan, he saw that he was aware of it, so he immediately killed Yahuan.
"Nurse, when you went over there to find clues before, was there a bit of a big commotion?"
Yao's mother was stunned for a moment, and then patted her head in annoyance and said: "It's the slave who is in a hurry, and she just wants to catch that girl ring as soon as possible so that she can ask who the mastermind behind her is, so she didn't be careful!"
It must be that person still has eyeliner in the house, and when he heard me inquire about the girl, he immediately sent the news, and the little girl was killed.
It's all the slave's fault, please punish the little master! ”
As she spoke, Yao's mother was about to kneel down and admit punishment.
Jiang Long hurriedly stepped forward to help, "Nurse, you always see the outside like this, tell you not to call yourself a slave, if you don't change it, it's just that, now you still have to kneel down to me and admit your mistakes!"
I grew up eating your milk, how can I stand your kneeling, isn't that a loss of my life? Forcibly helped Yao's mother up, Jiang Longcai said again: "I am actually to blame for this matter, I didn't settle you in advance, but although we missed this time, it was not without gain." ”
was vigorously helped up by Jiang Long, and listening to the intimate words in Jiang Long's mouth, Yao's mother felt that her intimate care for Jiang Long over the years and her strong feelings were really not in vain.
I heard Jiang Long say that things were messed up and there were gains, so he asked suspiciously, "What's the gain?" ”
"Although the person in the dark killed people and cut off the clue of the little girl's ring, he also clearly told us that in the mansion, he also arranged other eyeliners, and even, there was more than one!" Jiang Long calmly reasoned and analyzed.
Yao's mother nodded when she heard this, indeed, if no one sent the news out in time, that little girl would not have been killed first.
But thinking about it like this, she was a little nervous, "I didn't expect that the mansion, which has always been safe and sound, is so unsafe, little master, or let's confess the matter to the old lady." ”
"Nope." Jiang Long immediately vetoed, "That person in the dark is very familiar with the mansion, once he finds out that the old lady is vigorously searching, he will hide deeply, and it will be good if he can really find out the other party, but if he doesn't find out, there will always be a secret nail around him that will attack us at any time."
At that time, I was afraid that even the old lady would be always worried and would not sleep well. ”
Although Mrs. Jing is in good health, but in the end, she is old, Yao's mother thought about it for a while, and then nodded.
The old man can't stand the toss, especially at night, he can't even sleep well.
Maybe it's only ten days and half a month, and Mrs. Jing's body can be boiled down.
"Why don't I go to the small courtyards I asked about again to see which one of them left the house before, or if there is something abnormal?" Yao's mother proposed.
"It's to be checked, but it's to be investigated in secret, and it's useless to estimate it now."
Jiang Long walked to the bed and sat down, leaned down and reached out to stroke the forward's head, thought about it and said.
After chatting for a while, Yao's mother retreated.
Jiang Long, on the other hand, continued to ponder, and after a while, he took out the dagger hidden in his sleeve, rubbed it in his palm, and played with it gently.
Yao's mother walked out of the small courtyard and walked towards Mrs. Jing's residence, where Mrs. Jing and Lin Ya were both chanting scriptures in the Buddhist hall.
Before coming to the Buddhist hall, Yao's mother saw Lin Ya's two wedding maids getting together and didn't know what they were talking about.
With a slight frown, Yao's mother snorted lightly.
Hearing the sound, Du Juan and Shui Lan hurriedly stood up, and saw that it was Yao's mother coming, although they were Lin Ya's companions and had a special identity, they also hurriedly gave a salute and took the initiative to say hello, "Yao's mother." ”
"Hmm."
Yao's mother has the heart to preach a few words, but after all, the other party is the young lady's companion, and it is difficult to speak.
Moreover, it is also possible that these two daughters will become the concubines of their little master in the future, so Yao's mother finally didn't say anything and walked straight into the Buddhist hall.
When Mrs. Jing heard the footsteps, the tips of her ears trembled slightly, and she stopped chanting, "Xiaoya, didn't you say that you often cook food for your stepmother at home, it just so happens that I am tired of eating the food in the house, how about you cook a few things tonight, how about giving me a taste of your special dishes?" ”
"Yes." Lin Ya put down the wooden fish and responded respectfully.
stood up, nodded politely to Yao's mother, and then walked out of the Buddhist hall.
"Something?"
Mrs. Jing slowly opened her eyelids at this time, if it wasn't for something to report, Mother Yao would definitely have landed silently and would not have deliberately walked out of the footsteps.
Yao's mother stepped forward with a smile, picked up the wooden fish that Lin Ya had put down, and said while beating: "Earlier, the slave maid went out for some things, but I heard people talking on the street, saying that the presiding master of the Jialan Temple had passed away the night before. ”
"Oh?" Old Madam Jing pinched her fingers and calculated, and after a while, she said, "Speaking of which, Master Guichen is already eighty-three years old this year, right?" ”
"The old lady has a good memory."
"It's a pity that I didn't have the same freedom as Master Guichen back then, otherwise I would have gone to find a quiet nunnery to practice." Old Madam Jing suddenly sighed.
Yao's mother hurriedly said: "The old lady doesn't dare to think so, our Jingfu is still counting on you to sit in the town and get ideas." ”
"I know." Mrs. Jing shook her head and said: "I can't compare with Master Guichen, Master Guichen was born in a wealthy family, but he can resolutely give up his glory and wealth and throw himself into the Buddha's seat, and he is a master who really has Buddha roots!" And I'm just a fake monk, chanting the Buddha on my lips, but often my subordinates will harm people's lives.
It's really duplicity, presumably the Buddha and his old man won't accept a disciple like me. ”
"Old lady......"
Seeing that Yao's mother showed a worried look of wanting to be comforted, Mrs. Jing waved her hand and interrupted, "Although I can see through fame and fortune, I really can't rest assured that Jiang Long's family is wronged, and I don't dare to let Jingfu cut off the incense inheritance from me, so don't worry, I won't go looking for a monk in the nunnery in the short term." ”
Short term?
Yao's mother's heart jumped suddenly!
But I want to persuade, but I don't know how to persuade.
And she also knows that Mrs. Jing is a very assertive person, if she makes up her mind, it is useless to persuade anyone.
"When Jiang Long was born, I took him to ask Master Guichen to tell his fortune, speaking of which, we have to mourn." Old Madam Jing remembered something and spoke.
Yao's mother said, "That's exactly what the slave maid thinks, and by the way, I want to ask if I want to increase the amount of sesame oil that Jialan Temple has to send this month?" ”
"Yes, make it three points thicker." Mrs. Jing was confident in the Buddha, and every month she would give incense oil money to several temples and nunnery near Ningyuan County, "As for mourning, Jiang Long's body has just improved, and the wind is strong on the mountain, I am afraid that he will not be able to bear it." ”
"When the time comes, the little young master will be thickened, the death of Master Guichen is a big event, it is best to let the little young master mourn and pay respects, and by the way, get a little Buddha spirit."
"Okay, then when do you say we're going to mourn?"
"It's too late, so why don't you go the day after tomorrow?"
"Okay."
After the two chatted a few more words, Yao's mother put down the wooden fish and withdrew from the Buddhist hall, and then walked to the direction of the back garden again, this time to investigate secretly.
When it was time for dinner, Lin Ya came to Mrs. Jing's small courtyard with two food boxes.
"Grandma, granddaughter-in-law has brought you dinner."
Coming to the door of the bedroom, Du Juan stepped forward and helped lift the door curtain, and Lin Ya walked in straight with a short body.
Several maids were massaging Mrs. Jing's shoulders, and they all stopped and retreated to the side when they heard the words.
At this time, Zhang Jiang's family was also there, stepped forward to help Mrs. Jing get up, glanced at Lin Ya, and said in a deliberately low voice that could be heard by everyone in the house: "It's really unruly, I don't know how to call before entering the door." ”
Lin Ya's footsteps paused, and the smile froze on her face.
Du Juan and Shui Lan, who followed up, glared at Zhang Jiang fiercely in secret.
Mrs. Jing waved her hand and said with a smile: "Ya'er is the granddaughter-in-law of the old body, and when you come here, you don't need to let someone call you first." ”
"You are kind." Zhang Jiang was helpless.
Gently patting the back of Zhang Jiang's hand, Mrs. Jing motioned to Yahuan, who was standing on the side, to help her put on her shoes, "This is the first time Ya'er has gone into the kitchen to cook for the old man by hand, I must eat more." ”
Lin Ya saw that Mrs. Jing played a round for herself, so she put her smile on her beautiful face again.
I only secretly wondered in my heart, this Zhang Jiang's weishenme always looked at himself unpleasantly?
I didn't offend her.
Mrs. Jing cleaned her hands in the basin brought by Yahuan, and Yahuan helped to wipe it clean, Mrs. Jing took Zhang Jiang's arm and walked to the table and sat down, and saw Lin Ya bring two food boxes, but at this time she only opened one, and asked suspiciously: "Why, don't you take out the food in this food box for the old man to eat?" ”
Lin Yabaixi's face was a little red, and she whispered: "Granddaughter-in-law has learned to cook medicinal food, and she knows that Xianggong is not in good health, so she specially made a few things and prepared to send someone to give Xianggong a taste." ”
"Humph! If you are really good for the little master, stay away from him! ”
Mrs. Jing was stunned when she heard this, she didn't expect Lin Ya to take the initiative to cook for her grandson at this time, in fact, Lin Ya didn't want to come forward so quickly to show Jiang Long, but the two maids kept urging, there was really no way, and Zhang Jiang immediately put his hands on his waist and said unceremoniously: "Last night, you made the little young master vomit blood angrily......
"Enough!" Old Madam Jing pulled down her face suddenly, "I said a long time ago, Jiang Long vomited blood and fell into a coma last night, and I am not allowed to mention it again!" ”
"Yes."
Seeing that Mrs. Jing was really angry, Zhang Jiang had to bow her head.
"Ya'er will accompany me to eat here, you can go and give the medicinal food to Jiang Long." Mrs. Jing didn't want Zhang Jiang's family to continue to stay here to find Lin Ya's stubble, so she simply sent her an envoy.
Zhang Jiang didn't dare to refute, so he could only personally carry the food box and walk out of the courtyard.
However, as soon as he stepped out of the courtyard door, Zhang Jiang turned around and handed the food box to a maid ring beside him, and ordered angrily: "You go and send the food box to the little master's courtyard!" ”
"Yes." Xiao Yahuan lifted the food box and went straight away.
"Hmph, the food cooked by an unfavored young lady also wants me to deliver it in person, I think it's beautiful!" Zhang Jiang stomped his feet hatefully and turned around to go back to his small courtyard.
When the little girl ring who took the food box walked near the Jianglong courtyard, a figure suddenly appeared next to her.
