Chapter 334: I Didn't Kill Anyone
Song Zixun nodded, "I've already sent someone to check...... he thought for a while, "I heard something interesting today...... About two years ago, there was a theft case in the Huo family - a small servant in the house sneaked into Mrs. Huo's room to steal, and was caught by Huo Yuanwai and Mrs. Huo who went back. As a result, the Huo family sent a group of subordinates...... Mrs. Huo has also moved to a partial hospital to recuperate. ”
He finished speaking, but did not get the expected response.
When I looked down, I saw her pillowed on her lap, looking peaceful, as if she had fallen asleep.
Song Zixun smiled silently, lowered his head and gave Du Rongzhi a kiss on the forehead, and carefully carried her to the bed, pulled the quilt over and covered it, and then walked to the round table and sat down.
The water in the teapot was still warm, he poured out a cup, dipped his long fingers in the tea, and casually wrote and drew on the table.
Xiaohong was scared to death in the middle of the night in the side courtyard and had no clue, but everyone had intentionally or unintentionally sketched an image of Mrs. Huo Fu in his mind-
The house is kind-hearted, sympathetic, and simple, and even a little mysterious......
Song Zixun's fingertips rubbed gently along the edge of the bowl.
It doesn't matter if he's ignorant or conceited...... He couldn't believe anything outside of nature.
But if it weren't for the ghosts and gods, who could scare a living person to death in a deserted house......
What is the relationship between Mrs. Huo and Xiaohong's death?
What is the secret of the theft case that frightened Mrs. Huo and made the Huo family keep silent?
What can make Xiaohong so scared, and even scare her to death?
Is there really a ghost in this world, or do some people have a ghost in their hearts......
Song Zixun sighed softly.
…… I hope I can find the man who gave Xiaohong Spring Sachet tomorrow.
………………………………
May nights are still a little chilly.
Because of the death of people in the past two days, the people in the house are panicking. In order to calm people's hearts, even at night, the Huo family is still brightly lit.
A swill truck slowly walked down the path. The cart was pushed by a tall, swarthy middle-aged man, who was obviously not light, and he was sweating profusely, and from time to time he had to stop and wipe his forehead with his sleeve.
He was holding back his strength and walking forward, when he suddenly felt that the car was inexplicably light.
Lu Song was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly looked up - sure enough, he saw a girl in coarse cloth and green clothes walking forward with difficulty holding on to the board frame.
"Why are you here?" Lu Song showed a sincere smile, "Didn't you say that you should rest for two more days?" ”
"I'm all right." Jing Si pushed the car forward, and said expressionlessly.
Lu Song didn't care about her attitude, and said to himself, "Actually, it's really difficult for you." A girl's house, doing so much work during the day, and collecting swill with me at night......"
"It's all my business, there's nothing difficult or embarrassing." Jing Si said expressionlessly. Bunny Fly
Lu Song smiled and stopped talking.
In the silence of the path, only the sound of heavy footsteps and the creaking of the wheels of the car on the ground could be heard for a moment.
The two quickly pushed the cart to the back door of the kitchen.
The swill bucket here is the largest, and the rotten vegetables and leaves in the kitchen and the leftovers of the whole house are poured into it, and sometimes it is a little difficult for two people to move.
Lu Song looked at Jing Si, who was silently carrying the swill bucket on the other side, hesitated for a while, and when the two put the swill bucket in the car, he couldn't help but speak, "I heard them...... Today, the magistrate asked you again? ”
Jing Si let out an unmoved "um" on his eyebrows.
Lu Song pursed his lips and was silent, "Don't be afraid...... he whispered, "I don't have anything-"
"Why should I be afraid?" Jing Si interrupted abruptly, "What do I have to fear?" ”
Her gaze was thrown at him coldly like a knife, "Just say whatever you want, no one will stop you." ”
"No, no, no!" Lu Song's face was flushed with anxiety, "I didn't mean that......" he explained helplessly, "I just want to tell you, don't worry, I didn't say anything about that night no matter how they asked...... You, don't get me wrong......"
Seeing that he was so anxious that he began to sweat on his forehead again, a black face that was not very good-looking seemed to be even darker...... Jing Si's complexion softened unconsciously.
In fact, she already knew...... On the morning when Xiaohong's body was found, when she called them one by one for questioning, she knew that he had said nothing.
"I'm not mistaken," she said in a nonchalant tone, "if you did, they would have interrogated me repeatedly, how could they have let me back so easily." As she spoke, she glanced at Lu Song with disgust, took out a handkerchief from her sleeve and threw it over, "Don't hurry up and wipe the sweat!" Such a big person, I don't know how to use my brain when I talk and do things! ”
Lu Song looked at her blankly, "...... Oops! He took it in flattery, and hesitated in his hand for a long time before picking it up and carefully wiping the sweat from his head, "Don't worry......" he assured with a serious face, "I won't betray you." ”
Jing Si shook his head for the solemnity in his tone, and it took him a while to react, and he said lightly, "You think too much." ”
Lu Song wiped his sweaty hands for a moment, and looked at her for some reason.
"I was just in a hurry that night, so I left for a while......" Jing Si's clean eyes looked back at him fearlessly, "I didn't kill anyone. ”
Lu Song looked at her stunned for a moment before nodding solemnly, "I believe in you." ”
He wouldn't ask her why she said she had a stomachache and wanted to relieve her when she saw a blurry figure that night, or where she was when she screamed, or why she came back with a face so pale that she was almost bloodless...... All he had to do was simply believe her.
He is a man with little ability, and even if he likes someone, he never dares to let her know...... Then keep her quiet. As long as he doesn't say it, no one will know.
No one will ever know.
………………………………
The process of finding Xiaohong's good relationship did not go as smoothly as expected.
Although according to the workmanship and style of the spring sachet, the embroidery workshop that made and sold the sachet was quickly found, but because of the special "function" of this thing, there are also the elders of the female relatives who buy it for the girl who wants to leave the cabinet at home to press the bottom of the box, and there are also the husbands who take it to relieve boredom in the boudoir of the husband and wife, and there are also young men and women who are in love with each other to teach and receive it privately...... Although this embroidered spring bag is not sold much, it is by no means as little as imagined.
Song Zixun felt that the people under his rule lived and worked in peace and contentment, and their spare time life was very colorful, but he also felt a little headache about how to find Xiaohong's good relationship among this bunch of men and women, young and old.
