The second girl glanced out, just as her mother came in. It's probably because Jian Qing and the others ordered two plates of meat and vegetables, which are worth a little money, and they happen to live in Mrs. An's house, if they eat happily, these two bachelors may use their shop as a kitchen in the future.

The second girl began to popularize the parents of each family in Renqi Lane to them, "Speaking of Mrs. An's family, the façade of our family used to be theirs, after the old father was gone, she was coaxed by the housekeeper to go, these conscienceless, seeing that she was illiterate, her son was small, fooled inside and out, and a good family was so ruined." ”

"Alas, people's hearts are not ancient!" Jian Qing sighed, Zhao Er raised his head and glanced at her, his eyes were full of mockery, and Jian Qing didn't care.

"That's not the case."

Jian Qing can easily stimulate the potential of people to gossip, the second girl also sighed without saying a word, and dragged a stool across the head of Jian Qing's table, and said at a glance, "Their family foundation is also okay, the child is also very competitive, and he was promoted at a young age, and originally hired a girl from the Pei family in the west of the city as a daughter-in-law, who knows, the child was fascinated by a flower girl on the Qinhuai River boat." The Pei family knew that they were not happy, and the child refused to marry, so he had to get along with the flower girl, where was Mrs. An willing, scolded the child a few words, and the child fell ill at once, and lost his life in two days. ”

This is a typical case of beating mandarin ducks with a stick and forcing her son to death.

Jian Qing sighed when he heard it, "Why is this so?" ”

She can't say the kind of "how can I not marry a flower girl", no matter what kind of era, it has its limitations, just like the era she is in now, "starvation is a small matter, and a loss of festival is a big thing", if she says it, she will not be criticized, she may be beaten.

"How many tenants does Mrs. Ann have in that house now? I saw a man who was about the same age as my eldest brother and couldn't walk easily, how long had they been staying? ”

"Oh, you're talking about Mrs. Yu? I've lived there for more than a year or two, I've been doing the math, at least three or five years. ”

"So long?" Jian Qing said in surprise, "I thought he had rented a few days earlier than us, has he been working in the dyeing workshop?" ”

"Not necessarily, the child of the Yu family works for a short time, and his legs and feet are inconvenient, but the child is diligent, his mother has been bedridden for many years, and he has always taken good care of him, and he would rather be hungry than let his mother not eat meat for a day, and they all say that such a child is cultivated by the blessing of being a mother and cultivating three lives."

"He's sick in bed? What kind of illness is it? ”

"I don't know, it's an old problem, I can't get up, I'm dizzy when I get together, and I can only lie down."

Zhao Erjiu finished drinking, half a catty of wine went down, his face was a little red, he asked for another bowl of rice, poured the leftovers on the table into the rice bowl without even the soup, mixed it, and ate no grains.

An Pozi's house is a square courtyard, the front of the inverted seat remodeled, half of it is rented to the second Ya's family, the other half is rented to a family to sell breakfast, every day to get up early and greedy, at this time, it is the time for people to sleep well, the lights in the house have been extinguished.

Yu Bai and his mother lived in the north wing, I heard that the original three wings were rented to two families, the other was a couple with a child, and the husband was a merchant.

Where Mrs. An is willing to lose this rent, she will have to spread it on the Yu family. If the Yu family refuses to rent all three wings, they will kick the Yu family out.

Yu Bai had no choice but to admit the money and rent an extra room and a half. Two people and three rooms, it would have been more spacious to live in, but because Yu Po also had to be taken care of at night, Yu Bai still built a bunk under his mother's room to take care of his mother.

At this time, Yu Bai's house was still lit with a dim oil lamp. A hunched figure is still reflected on the window paper.

Jian Qing glanced at it, then withdrew her gaze and went back to her room.

At night, Jian Qing lay on the bed, her hands under her head, looking at the darkness outside the window, she was pondering the case.

There were five victims in total, and there is no doubt that each of them had been slashed on the back of the head, and the blade was about half a finger wide, and it could be preliminarily concluded that the murder weapon should be the same one, and the blade was at least 40 centimeters long. This is one of them.

Second, the three bosses are all in contact with Sichuan and Shu, and the owner of the silk shop has been to Sichuan and Shu and has conversations with people from Sichuan and Shu; Needless to say, the owner of the crude medicine shop sent the big shopkeeper to Sichuan and Shu to buy goods, and there were often people from Sichuan and Shu who sent medicinal materials over, and the innkeeper personally sent the guests from Sichuan and Shu to the Tianzi, and finally was cut off with an axe.

"After chopping an axe, hurry back to the Tianzi Room, stay in it for a while, and then take advantage of the chaos to escape?" Jian Qing thought about it and felt that it was wrong, who was the person who went to the scene to ask about the case that day? Has the guest in the Sky Room been asked?

Before she knew it, Jian Qing fell asleep.

Early the next morning, she went to Yingtianfu to check the file, and when she arrived at the door of the yamen, she heard someone calling her, Jian Qing turned her head and saw that it was Xie Jin, she had forgotten this person, but the bed where she and Zhao Er slept was donated by Xie Jin.

"Brother Xie? What are you doing here? Jian Qing hurriedly went down the steps and greeted him.

"Next year, the imperial court will have a spring festival, no, a few classmates will come, everyone will get together and go back to the Qinhuai River." Xie Jin was in high spirits.

"In this way, the little brother is here to wish Brother Xie next year's high school laurels and take the lead!" Bow your hand concisely and sincerely bless.

"It's not daring to be the leader, but the high school laurel list should be nine out of ten!" Xie Jin is not modest.

"Brother Xie, why should you be modest?" A voice interjected, and in the middle of winter, a young man came over shaking a fan and said with a smile, "I remember that Brother Xie also said the same thing half a year ago, but what happened?" Who is the top spot in this township test? ”

Jian Qing understood, let out an "ah" in surprise, and bowed his hand to Xie Jin again, "Little brother is clumsy, he didn't recognize Lord Xie Yuan, it's disrespectful and disrespectful!" ”

Xie Jin laughed, didn't take it seriously, and said to the young man who was shaking the fan, "Why is Brother Ye teasing? In the spring of next year, they can compare with each other, Brother Ye is only eight buckets high, and he is afraid that he will not be able to overpower Xie's rich five cars? ”

Jian Qing was stunned, are the top students of this era so immodest?

Xie Jin introduced Jian Qing and the young man to each other, "This is a newcomer to Ying Tianfu, Jian Qing, the eldest son of Master Jian Chong Jian of Qingzhou back then, and this is Ye Xi'an Ye of the 'Manchu Qinggui' Ye family." ”

Jian Qing was extremely surprised, could it be that Ye Xiping's death had not yet been reported? It should be not, otherwise, Ye Xi'an should go back to the funeral, and it is impossible to still think about participating in the Spring Festival with such ambition.

If this is the case, then the battle between the vassal king and the imperial grandson can be seen.
