Chapter 60: Clues

The night was quiet, and the breeze sent a few wisps of whooping red fragrance from time to time, Wei Yun sniffed lightly, and said softly: "Yes, you go down with Chuntang to get the silver." Thinking that her mind was on her brother, she didn't plan to let her rest for the night before going: "Chuntang will prepare a carriage for her by the way, and you can rest in the carriage for a while." ”

Chun Tao stared at Wei Yun and blinked slightly.

In the spring breeze, the girl is like the fragrance of flowers, like silver frost flowers, like transparent jade chips. Like washed rouge.

"I'll talk to you about the steward, and you'll come back when my brother gets better." Wei Yun saw through what she thought.

Chun Tao's eyes showed surprise, and Fu said, "Thank you, Miss." ”

Chuntang smiled and took Chun Tao to get the silver.

This silver is naturally deducted from the Yunxi Courtyard where Wei Yun lives, and I am afraid that it will be hard for a while to give Chun Tao a part of the Yunxi Courtyard.

Liu Xiuyue is in charge of the monthly money in every courtyard of Wei Mansion, Chuntang can't help but be angry when she thinks of this, the monthly money in Yunxi Courtyard is often deducted or given less, which is obviously Liu Xiuyue is deliberately doing ghosts.

Chuntang also mentioned it to Miss, who was reading a book at the time and asked, "Is there a lot of deductions?" ”

Chuntang shook his head: "Naturally, I don't dare to deduct more." ”

The young lady nodded: "Then forget it, it's a big deal to buy less things." ”

Chuntang couldn't help but sigh when he thought of this, his own young lady is good everywhere, but she is too kind.

Wei Yun sat alone in the chair, her fingertips tapping on the tabletop, looking at the full moon hanging in the air, her thoughts fluttering.

Since Chun Tao is fine, who is the person who died? Since it was the maid of the Wei Mansion, why didn't anyone find out?

Her mind moved, wrapped in the clothes on her body, and walked towards the door of the Wei Mansion.

The doorman saw Wei Yun coming from a long distance, and hurriedly asked, "Miss, are you going out so late?" ”

He wanted to remind the eldest lady that it was not safe to go out so late.

Wei Yun nodded, "I'll go out for a while, and I'll be back right away, right here at the door." ”

The doorman didn't dare to delay and hurriedly opened the door, and said with a smile: "The slave and maid are waiting here, if the eldest lady has any call, the slave and maid will come over immediately." ”

After a pause, he felt that it was inappropriate, and took another lantern: "The eldest lady uses this, be careful when the night road is dark." ”

Wei Yun nodded, took the lantern and walked out the door.

When the corpse was found today, Wei Yun asked his subordinates to get the corpse back, in order to leave clues, it was currently placed in a dilapidated grass hut behind the Wei family, guarded by a dark shadow of Lin Mo.

Wei Yun slowly walked towards the grass hut with a lantern, and at this time the wind gradually became a little stronger, and it gradually became colder than before.

As soon as he approached the thatched house, a black shadow flashed out of nowhere, and said respectfully: "Miss." ”

The lantern was lifted forward, and when he saw that it was a shadow, he nodded and said nothing, and walked towards the room with his feet raised.

The corpse was placed in the middle of the room on a wooden table.

Strictly speaking, the house is not a house, there is not even a door, and the thatch on the roof is also lacking a piece of grass in the east and a piece in the west, and the silver moonlight shines in and shines on the white bones, making people shudder.

Wei Yun sniffed the stench of the old thatch, glanced at the motionless shadow behind him, licked his lips and said no more, and walked towards the corpse with the lantern.

At this time, there was still a pungent smell on the corpse, which was really uncomfortable mixed with the stench in the room, and she wrinkled her nose and looked at the corpse carefully with a lantern.

"Miss, there is actually an oil lamp." The shadow stood in the doorway, his voice was a little hoarse, it happened that the moonlight couldn't shine through, and he was dressed in black standing in the dark, barely able to see a figure.

Wei Yun was carefully observing the white bones, in fact, he was so weak in his heart that he couldn't do it, but he had to find clues if he was weak.

The shadow's sudden voice frightened her scalp for a while, and the lantern in her hand almost knocked over to the ground, she frowned disapprovingly: "Why didn't you say it earlier?" ”

Only now, didn't you mean to scare her?

The shadow seemed to bow his head, and said in a hoarse voice: "Childe said, don't ask, do what you order." ”

Wei Yun found a lamp in the corner and lit the oil lamp: "Then why did you say it again?" ”

"I saw Miss's hands shaking." Shadow's serious explanation.

This, can she be blamed for this shaky hand? You mention a lantern to see the white bones, your hands don't tremble?

Looking at the shadows, he probably didn't tremble.

Okay, she admits that she does have a sour hand, and she is by no means scared!

Wei Yun put the oil lamp next to the corpse: "Why are you standing at the door?" ”

Shadow's throat moved, and his voice was hoarse: "Childe......"

Wei Yun frowned and interrupted him: "Give me a good talk." ”

The shadow touched his nose awkwardly and walked towards Wei Yun.

This girl is so powerful, even her own son-in-law was extremely difficult to hear, this girl just knew when he said a few words.

"You've been here all night, and what have you found?" Wei Yun looked at the white bones with a dress in the air.

Shadow pulls out a small mahogany accessory carved into a white crane from his bosom.

He originally wanted to wait for Gongzi to come tomorrow, and he was handing it over to Gongzi, but depending on Gongzi's attitude towards Miss Yun, it was okay to hand it over to Miss Yun.

Wei Yun raised her eyebrows and stretched out her hand to take it, the peach wood accessories were only the size of a thumb, the crane's beak made a fish, the fish turned over in a circle, a red rope strung through the fish, the white crane, the fish were carved lifelike, holding the empty line to hang in the air, as if the white crane would fly away with a fish in the next second.

Wei Yun felt that she had seen this thing somewhere, but she couldn't remember it for a while, she always felt that there was a string in her head, as long as she broke it, she could remember it, but the more she thought about it, the more headache she felt.

"Where did you find this thing?" Wei Yun asked.

The Shadow coughed lightly, and said in a clear voice, "In the bones." ”

Wei Yun remembered that this morning she watched the sleeves fluttering, and the hand bones were hidden in the sleeves, and she didn't lift them to look.

She sighed, she was misled, she thought that it was Chun Tao who died at that time.

But who is dying now?

Wei Yun looked at the peach wood accessories in his hand and asked lightly, "...... you Recognizable this? ”

Shadow shook his head, "I don't know. ”

On the way home, Wei Yun kept thinking about this thing, and the string in her head hurt more and more.

The doorman stood on the steps of the gate, put his hands in his sleeves, reached his head to look, and saw a dim light floating to this side not far away, and when he got closer, the doorman immediately smiled and said, "Miss, are you back?" ”

Wei Yun nodded at the doorman.

When I returned to Yunxi Courtyard, it happened that Chuntang also came back, and when I saw that Miss hadn't slept yet, I thought that I might not be sleepy, and I smiled and talked to Wei Yun about Chuntao's younger brother.

It can be seen that Wei Yun frowned and didn't speak, Chuntang closed his mouth and asked in a low voice, "Miss, what's wrong with you, are you uncomfortable?" ”

Wei Yun shook his head, glanced at Chuntang, and his expression moved.

It's the maid who died, ask Chuntang maybe she knows.

She spread out the peach wood accessories in her hand: "Chuntang, do you recognize this?" ”

Chuntang looked at her hand suspiciously, his face changed, and he asked, "Miss, where did you get this thing from?" ”

Wei Yun saw Chuntang's expression and knew that she knew: "I found it from that corpse." ”

Chuntang's face changed: "How come, this is Cuiping's, then isn't she ......?"

"Who is Cuiping?" Wei Yun's heart jumped.

Chuntang's expression is not much sad, it is far worse than knowing today that it is Chun Tao who died, it can be seen that they have no friendship, she recalled: "Cuiping is the maid of the Wei Mansion, but a few days ago, I don't know who said that Cuiping couldn't stand the hard life of the Wei Mansion and ran away secretly, this matter is related to the reputation of the Wei Mansion, and the steward checked it and didn't find out who said it, so he suppressed the matter, and warned the slaves and maids that they were not allowed to go out and talk nonsense. ”

"What was the other day?" Wei Yun frowned and asked.

The person who can be preliminarily bound to death now is Cui Ping.

Chuntang also knew that this matter was careless, and after thinking about it carefully and calculating the days in his heart, he spoke: "I found out that Cuiping's disappearance was the day when Miss drowned, and two days later, someone said that Cuiping couldn't stand the hard days of the Wei Mansion and ran out." ”

Wei Yun's doubts became even greater, but she still suppressed her emotions and asked, "Then can she be found after she disappeared?" ”

Chuntang shook his head: "This slave doesn't know." ”

At that time, Wei Yun had just drowned, her body was too weak, and the high fever did not go away one after another, how could she dare to delay, she was busy serving before and after, and how could she have time to pay attention to the affairs of the people in the house.

Wei Yun asked again: "Then Cuiping used to work in that yard?" ”

Chuntang thought about it again and said, "Do laundry work in the back hall." ”

It's really watertight.

A maid who washes clothes, doing all the rough work and tiring work, said that she couldn't stand the hard days of the Wei Mansion and ran away, which is reasonable.

She tapped her fingertips on the table, her thoughts returning to the day she had drowned, and little by little details were magnified......

She figured out that there would be a string in her head, and it was not her own memory, it was the memory of the original host.

She suspected that this maid named Cuiping was instructed by someone, that is, Gu Yining's person who reported the news, and sent someone to deliberately push her into the water on the way to the banquet of the original owner Wei Yun, because Wei Yun remembered it, as if she saw Cuiping hiding when she was drowning in her memory, they found that Wei Yun actually came back to life, Cuiping's maid wanted to run, and the people behind the scenes were afraid that Cuiping would reveal the secret, so they cut her throat with a knife, and took advantage of Cuiping's last breath to pour fossil powder.

Thinking of this, Wei Yun couldn't help but sneer, what he did was really ruthless, not leaking, and there was no evidence left.

Now that the evidence is broken, she doesn't think about it, that person can do this, she can't think of who it is, but this person must still be hidden in the Wei Mansion, Wei Yun doesn't believe that they only put a dark line in the Wei Mansion, there must be other people, Wei Yun just needs to pay more attention to the usual, and see and find out this person in the future.

"Miss, this mahogany accessories slave will burn it for you, after all, it's a dead man's thing......" Chuntang glanced at the things on the table a little timidly.

When she was a child, she often heard the old man say that when a person dies, the soul of a person will attach to his favorite things in front of him.

She felt a chill run down her back just thinking about it.

Wei Yun shook her head and said, "Just hang it on the pillar in the corridor outside the door, return the things to Cuiping early tomorrow morning, notify her family to claim the body, and give another burial fee." ”

Chuntang said timidly: "But, hanging the corridor pillars, ...... in the middle of the night"

"Chuntang!" Wei Yun interrupted her with a frown.

Chuntang also knew that he had spoken too much, and he shrunk his head and was not talking.

Miss said hang, then hang it, it's a big deal that she will try to see if the ghost is powerful for Miss first.
