Volume 2 Mirror Lake Water Moon 021 - Step by Step

"Your three-legged cat's kung fu is no match for me, if you are a little better, I don't want to hurt you. But you want me to become a puppet at your mercy, so you might as well die. ”

"Fan Mingen, I won't let you go if I'm a ghost......"

With more strength in his hand, the cuckoo began to struggle, gradually ceasing to move.

Seeing the cuckoo swallow in front of him, Fan Mingen suddenly calmed down, and he tested her snort and pulse to make sure that there was no sign of life. At that moment, there was a trace of remorse in his heart, he was too heavy, not to mention the husband and wife for a hundred days, she still had his flesh and blood in her belly.

But remorse and guilt were only for a moment, and soon he turned his attention to more realistic issues. The second lady of Water Moon Villa died, this is not a trivial matter, how can I do it without knowing it. The old man's martial arts skills are much higher than his own, and there are so many people in Shuiyue Villa, once they decide that they are murderers, they will not be able to escape. Escaping from Shuiyue Villa like this, he was unwilling, because there was no second chance to come back, and all his previous efforts were in vain.

If it is someone else, it is okay to push it directly into the mirror lake, but the cuckoo knows water; It is not suitable to cause a stumble and fall off a cliff, not to mention what a pregnant woman can do when she runs to the island to climb the mountain, and the marks on her neck cannot be erased; Find a pit and bury it, and her disappearance will surely be suspected of him.

He got dressed, picked up the cuckoo's body and sneaked back into the house. In any case, her body could not be left at the scene of the crime, and the island was patrolled by family members during the day. The death of the cuckoo was either done naturally or completely incredible, so that he could get rid of suspicion.

Liu Zhuang was sitting precariously, looking at the early on the table and not moving the chopsticks. The magpie secretly aimed at him, but did not dare to move.

The maid who was waiting for the cuckoo came to report: "Owner, my uncle said that the second lady didn't sleep well last night, so let the slave maid bring it in early." ”

"Well, you go ahead, get a few side dishes that the cuckoo likes, and look at them."

The maid understood, took it and left early, and came back more than a quarter of an hour later.

"How?"

"Back to the owner, the slave and maid could see clearly outside the window, and after the uncle fed the second miss a small bowl of porridge, he helped the second miss to lie down."

Master Liu Zhuang thought for a moment: "Then don't go and disturb her, remember to wake her up at noon." ”

"Yes."

Fan Mingen limped to the study, and met several family members on the way and greeted them one by one. Once in the study, he took care of his daily affairs. The wind was a little strong, blowing pages and pages of booklets, and the contracts flew everywhere.

After all the business was done, he stretched and looked at the hour, it was already a quarter of noon. opened the door and was about to go back for lunch, but he heard a noise from far and near, and soon a clear voice came: "Uncle, the big thing is not good, the big thing is not good!" ”

"Something to say slowly, what are you doing all the time, can the sky fall?" Fan Mingen reprimanded.

"Uncle, second miss, she ...... She ......"

"What's wrong with the cuckoo, you make it clear!" He suddenly tensed.

"Second Miss, she's ...... in the backyard"

"Cuckoo!" Fan Mingen's face changed greatly, and he immediately ran out, because his legs and feet were not very convenient, and when he walked out of the courtyard gate, he accidentally tripped and fell. I stumbled all the way to the backyard and saw a lot of people surrounding me.

"Cuckoo! Cuckoo! He rushed up to cut through the crowd and saw the familiar woman in red lying on the ground, her eyes wide. He rushed up and shook her shoulders and shouted, "Cuckoo, what's wrong with you, don't scare me!" ”

Soon, he saw the scar on her neck, and the whip not far away, he reached out to test her snort and pulse, and then was shocked, ignoring the crowd of onlookers, pinched her nose with one hand, pinched her mouth with the other, and then pressed her chest. He muttered, "Cuckoo, you can't die!" He repeated the above movements.

I don't know how many times it was repeated, the lying person never reacted, he finally gave up, sat beside her, hugged her tightly in his arms, buried his head in her shoulder, and cried silently: "Cuckoo, why are you like this, you just took the child and walked away, leaving me alone for the rest ......of my life" It was really sad for the listener to see tears.

The magpie wiped his tears and gently pulled the sleeve of the owner of Liu's house. Seeing this, Lord Liu stepped forward and said: "Mingen, don't be sad, the death of the cuckoo should be an accident, now we still take care of the aftermath for her, let her be buried as soon as possible." ”

Fan Mingen wiped his tears: "It's all up to my father-in-law." ”

The owner of Liu Zhuang waved his hand, and the two family members stepped forward with the door panel. Fan Mingen stopped: "I'll come." With that, he picked her up and walked towards the village with one foot deep and one foot shallow.

Large families have longevity materials, and after Liu Zhuang knew the news of Du Juan's death, he asked people to prepare, but he didn't expect that he didn't use it, but his daughter used it first. Fan Mingen put the cuckoo into the coffin, held her hand for a long time and refused to let go, Steward Liu persuaded him several times before he let go of his hand, watching the coffin lid slowly close, he couldn't help but burst into tears.

Everyone saw it in their eyes and was moved in their hearts, my uncle really had nothing to say to Miss, even the magpie was moved, only Master Liu still frowned.

"This morning, you are sure that after seeing your uncle feed the second miss some porridge, he helped the second miss to lie down."

"It's true. The slave went to see it again after half an hour, and the young lady was sleeping soundly. ”

"You tell you everything you see."

"Yes!"

After the maid finished speaking, he thought for a while and asked, "When did my uncle leave?" ”

"Three quarters a minute."

"Alright, you go down."

"What time did my uncle arrive at the study today?"

"The hour is about to pass, and the time has not yet come."

"Has he ever left since?"

"Nope. The little one has been observing outside the door, and the uncle has been in the study and has never left. ”

"Have his doors and windows ever been closed?"

"At first, the doors and windows were open, but then the wind was strong, so my uncle asked the little one to close the doors and windows, leaving only the west half of the door."

"What's so unusual about him today?"

"Uncle's legs and feet seem to be a little inconvenient."

"Let's go down."

Lord Liu Zhuang paced back and forth, the death of the cuckoo looked strange, but when you think about it, it is a coincidental accident. But if he thought about it carefully, this coincidence was too coincidental, and he had to doubt Fan Mingen. But he asked several subordinates, and Fan Mingen fed the cuckoo porridge in the morning, and never left the study after that. Moreover, several subordinates have said that he has inconvenient legs and feet, and he has seen it himself, so it is unlikely that he will leave to kill people without knowing it.

"Ming'en, the cuckoo is gone, don't be too sad."

"Dad, it's my fault, it's me who didn't take good care of the cuckoo." Fan Mingen said guiltily.

"I don't blame you, I heard that your leg was injured, it's okay, right?"

"It's all my fault, it's my fault, I can't escape from the cuckoo's accident, even if my leg is broken, I deserve it!"

"It's not necessarily your fault, tell me what's going on?"

"Originally, I couldn't talk about the matter of husband and wife, alas! Cuckoo has always had a bad temper, but I like her straightforward nature of daring to love and hate. Since having children, she has become more temperamental and often suspicious. Because her morning sickness was very severe, I was afraid of hurting her and the child, so I haven't touched her since I knew she was pregnant, but who knows...... Who knows, she suspects that I am having an affair with a magpie! ”

"Since I decided to be with her, I have stopped teaching magpies to read and kept my distance from them in order to avoid suspicion, but she just didn't believe it and smashed my foot with a vase. I was angry, so I quarreled with her for a few words, and ran out into the yard and sat alone for half an hour. When I calmed down, I went back and apologized to her, and she forgave me at the time. I thought it was all right, but I didn't know she would...... It's all my fault, I shouldn't have quarreled with her, let alone be angry with her, so she can't think about it......"

"Well, don't blame yourself anymore, the cuckoo's death was just an accident. You have to take care of yourself, and I'll ask the doctor to show you the leg injury later. ”

"Thank you, Dad!"

The doctor bandaged the wound with medicine, and after a while, he sent a few more doses. Fan Mingen sent the doctor away, and he was relieved that this level should have been fooled.

After he brought the cuckoo's body back to the house, he thought about it all night before he thought of this adventurous method. He knew that the owner of Liu Zhuang had not trusted him since his sneak attack that night, and had sent people to spy on him, so he used the people who were spying on him to testify against him.

In the morning, he deliberately asked the maid to send her to the room early. When the maid went to fetch breakfast, he lifted the cuckoo's body up and leaned against the bed, and then pretended to feed her porridge. Every time he fed her, he would blow it first, but in fact he drank the porridge himself, and what was fed to the cuckoo's mouth was just an empty spoon, but the maid watching at the window couldn't see this detail clearly, and only thought that he was feeding the cuckoo porridge.

Then, he helped the cuckoo to lie down, drank another bowl of white porridge, ate a bun, during which the bowl that fed the cuckoo porridge never touched, and after eating, he called the maid to come and put away the dishes and chopsticks. When the maid saw the empty bowl and the sleeping cuckoo, she naturally did not be suspicious.

And he commanded the cuckoos to rest, so that they should not be disturbed. Since the cuckoo became pregnant, her temper has become more irritable, and those who disturb her rest will be scolded at least and whipped at worst, which everyone knows, and they dare not wake her up, only dare to look at her from a distance.

He limped to the study again, greeting people along the way, so as to make an impression, and also to hide what was hidden in his clothes. Everyone's attention was on his legs, and no one cared if the clothes were unnatural.

When he arrived at the study, he opened the doors and windows as usual, and took out a stack of contracts to settle the score. Soon, a gust of wind blew, the ledger was blown up, and the contract was blown everywhere. He called the little guy who was actually watching outside, and asked him to help pick up all the contracts on the grounds of inconvenient legs.

The servant picked up the contracts one by one and put them away, and stepped forward to close the windows.

"There is no wind in the west. Leave half of the fan, or it will be too stuffy. Shut the door when you go out. ”

The little guy did so one by one and stepped back. Why leave half a window, because since someone is watching, there will always be a way to see him, rather than not knowing where the other party will peek at him, it is better to leave a window for himself, and he can also calculate a good angle, so that what the little guy sees becomes a testimony in his favor.
