Chapter 588: The Bat Knocks on the Door
Chu Ruoxi became more and more curious: "No wonder what?" If you don't say anything, I'll get out of bed and see. ”
Leng Qinghuan walked back and took the handkerchief in his hand to Chu Ruoxi to see: "Look at it yourself, what is this?" ”
Chu Ruoxi looked down and saw that the clean handkerchief of the cold and happy daffodils was stained with a little red, which seemed to be bloodstains.
"What is this? Paint off? ”
When the door of the room where the two lived was married, Leng Xiang specially asked someone to calculate it, saying that Leng Qinghe belonged to the fire life, and in order to have a happy occasion, he painted the door and door frame all red. Later, Chu Ruoxi disliked the flamboyant color, and ordered the craftsman to change the paint to iron red during the Chinese New Year.
"No, it's blood." Leng Qinghuan explained: "If my expectation is right, it should be eel blood." ”
"Eel blood? What do you mean? Ward off evil spirits? Chu Ruoxi asked stunned.
"What evil do you avoid? Recruit evil spirits! The one who kept knocking on the door last night should not be some master who came and went without a trace, but a bat. Bats are easily attracted by the smell of eel blood, and when their heads or bodies collide with the door panel, isn't it the same as the sound of knocking on the door? ”
"So amazing?"
Chu Ruoxi was a little surprised: "How did you know?" ”
This is also due to the time when I was a child chasing dramas, it seems to be a fragment in "Detective Di Renjie", right? The specific storyline has long been forgotten, and this creepy "haunted" scene is still fresh in my memory.
"Happens to know."
Chu Ruoxi felt novel: "Who is so insidious, can you think of such an idea?" And, when did he apply the blood? How did I not know at all? ”
"Then ask the people in your yard who came in and out of your room yesterday."
Chu Ruoxi was a little annoyed: "It's really hard to say this, since I got pregnant, there are many people who come to visit the house." Of course, there are some people who come for your medical skills. ”
"Since this person is prepared, he must know the environment in your yard well. Knowing that you have a cotton curtain hanging on the door, the door opens outward, and the color is similar, generally no one will notice. ”
Chu Ruoxi suddenly realized: "It's just too hateful." Could it be that I am in charge of the house on weekdays, who has neglected me? As for poisoning me like this? I must investigate this matter to the bottom of the matter, and I can't just leave it at that. ”
Leng Qinghuan did not dissuade. This person is like a needle falling on the bed, if he can't pull it out, Chu Ruoxi won't be able to live in peace while pregnant.
Chu Ruoxi called in her mother-in-law and asked her to call her mother and sister-in-law in.
After a while, everyone arrived.
Chu Ruoxi told several sisters-in-law the truth about the discovery of Leng Qinghe and Qinghuan's brother and sister, as well as her own suspicions.
It just doesn't make sense! The five of them were immediately filled with righteous indignation and made suggestions and suggestions.
Leng Qinghuan finally understood a truth, what is called, not a family, not a family. This family, with a very high voice, got angry, and made their heads buzz.
"I'll go to the kitchen and ask if any eels were slaughtered in the house yesterday?"
"If it wasn't killed by the house, it would be brought into the house from outside the house, and if you ask the guy guarding the door, you should be able to know who has been in and out of the prime minister's house in the past two days."
"I'll ask the mother-in-law in the courtyard, although there are many people, but if it is someone outside the prime minister's mansion, the gods are chattering about this, and someone will definitely pay attention."
"Also, if you have offended the people in the house these days? At least there must be a reason for harming people, right? If something happens to you, what's in it for him? ”
"Does this have anything to do with that crazy mother-in-law in your house? The commotion that makes people panic must have a purpose. ”
"Yes, there is also the ghost fire you said last time, and the old man coughed in the middle of the night, and there are people floating around, it must be for people, it is impossible that there are no flaws."
Everyone is gossiping, you say a word, I say a word, and this matter is almost analyzed.
Leng Qinghuan didn't speak all the time, and listened attentively to the chatter of several young ladies to express their opinions.
Three stinkers, top one Zhuge Liang, so it seems that although this person is unaware, but he also left a lot of doubts, follow these clues, find them one by one, and then look for intersections, there is no doubt that the person behind this troublemaker is undoubted.
Chu Ruoxi twisted her face and asked Leng Qinghuan: "What do you think?" ”
Qing Huan shook his head: "I don't have any good ideas here." However, my brother didn't rest in the yard last night, who knows about this? ”
The young ladies who were discussing it were lively suddenly turned their faces: "That's right, it's not too early or too late, so I deliberately chose this juncture to start." Moreover, how did he know in advance that his sister-in-law would stay in the study? ”
Leng Qinghe has not slept in separate rooms since Chu Ruoxi became pregnant. The husband and wife have always slept together, unless Leng Qinghe went out to eat or returned late because he had something to do, and because he got up early in the morning, he simply stayed in the study, so as not to disturb Chu Ruoxi's rest.
Leng Qinghuan's reminder, everyone suddenly woke up: "That's right, the eel blood should be smeared in advance, this matter has been premeditated, that is to say, this person knew early in the morning that Qinghe might stay in the study." ”
This clue is clearer and clearer.
Chu Ruoxi said: "Yesterday, he stayed in the study just for a temporary purpose, and he ordered someone to come to deliver the letter after dinner." At this time, there were no guests in the house, and no one from outside came or went. ”
"Then the people in this courtyard ......"
"There are two people I brought from my mother's house, a nurse and a girl. The other two are also honest and reliable people in the Prime Minister's Mansion. Besides, I have never treated them harshly on weekdays. ”
"That's weird."
Chu Ruoxi frowned slightly: "Every time your brother has a new book, he can't put it down, and he often stays up all night, and many people in the house know about it." Although the letter came late, I expected it. ”
In other words, the one who started must be the people in the house who didn't run away.
"Then, the people who went in and out of your yard yesterday should have a plan in their hearts, right?"
Chu Ruoxi thought for a moment, a bright light flashed in her eyes, and she shook her head suspiciously: "Shouldn't it?" ”
"Who do you think of it?"
Chu Ruoxi said hesitantly: "There is a little suspicion, but it is unlikely. Let's wait for the sisters-in-law to verify. ”
Mrs. Chu was obedient and obedient, it should be because her daughter had scruples in her heart, so she took a few young ladies out to inquire about the mothers-in-law in this courtyard.
Chu Ruoxi said to Qing Huan in a hurry: "I really have a guess, if it's wrong, don't worry about it." ”
"Who is it?"
"Yesterday, your brother got that treasure book, Qingjiao, this kid knows."
"Are you suspicious of Qingjiao?" Qing Huan was shocked.
