Chapter 470: Noodle House
"That's nonsense!" The housekeeper waved his hand again and again and said, "When we divorced the marriage, our young lady also agreed, she didn't like Yang Gongzi and wanted to withdraw from the marriage!" Besides, with the temperament of our young lady, if she wasn't happy, how could she endure it until now, she would have already done it herself! ”
This is the same as Gao Jingchuan thought. Zou Susu is not the kind of person who can forbear.
"Two adults! In short, our young lady will not kill anyone! The housekeeper of the Zou Mansion said.
Gao Jingchuan said: "We will find out the truth." ”
Xiao Shulun said unsubstantially on the side: "What else do you know about this Liu Baiwang?" ”
The housekeeper of Zou Mansion said: "I know, I've already told you, now, I really can't remember......"
Seeing him say this, Gao Jingchuan and Xiao Shulun stopped asking, and the two walked out of the Zou Mansion.
…………
…………
Xiao Shulun looked at Gao Jingchuan: "This case is getting more and more complicated. ”
Gao Jingchuan bowed.
Xiao Shulun said as he walked, "Mrs. Zou, Miss Zou...... Zou Mansion Maiden...... Now there is another guard from the Zou Mansion. are all related to Yang Shiqi. ”
Gao Jingchuan bowed slightly and said, "Now, Liu Baiwang insists that it was Miss Zou who instructed him to kill Yang Shiqi. ”
"I don't think so." Xiao Shulun said.
Gao Jingchuan bowed slightly: "I think so too." ”
"It would be nice if I could interrogate this Liu Baiwang clearly." Xiao Shulun let out a long sigh.
Gao Jingchuan said: "Zhong County Ling has already gone to check his details. ”
"Hmm."
Xiao Shulun stretched his waist and said, "Let's not talk about the case first, let's go to dinner together?" ”
Gao Jingchuan looked at the sky: "Okay." ”
The two left the Zou family and came to a small noodle restaurant in Qiu Cheng.
Gao Jingchuan looked at Xiao Shulun: "How do you eat here?" ”
Don't blame Gao Jingchuan for a while, because according to the usual practice of the third prince, when he arrives in a town, he must go to a big restaurant to eat.
Xiao Shulun smiled and said, "It was Zhong County Ling who said it, this noodle restaurant is good." ”
Gao Jingchuan looked at him: "Did he tell you this?" ”
"yes." Xiao Shulun said, "The most important thing is that this noodle restaurant is what Yang Shiqi usually likes to come to. ”
"How do you know?"
"Didn't I ask the subordinates of the Zou Mansion before?" Xiao Shulun said, "I remind them of what to say, as long as it is related to Yang Shiqi." There is a subordinate who said that Yang Shiqi likes to eat noodles in this noodle restaurant. ”
"I see." When Gao Jingchuan heard this, he couldn't help but look at the name of this noodle restaurant again.
"Auspicious noodle restaurant."
Either way, the name sounds auspicious.
"Let's go inside." Xiao Shulun said.
Gao Jingchuan bowed.
…………
…………
Jixiang Noodle Restaurant is a very ordinary noodle restaurant, when Xiao Shulun and Gao Jingchuan entered, it was already past the time to eat, so there were no customers in the noodle restaurant.
There is only one shopkeeper in the store, who is cleaning the tables and chairs.
Seeing the two of them coming in, he hurriedly greeted: "Guest officer, what kind of noodles do you eat?" ”
Gao Jingchuan and Xiao Shulun sat down.
Xiao Shulun said: "What is your signboard here?" ”
"Our noodle shop, the signature Yangchun noodles." The shopkeeper said, "Taste it?" ”
"Okay." Xiao Shulun said, taking out a silver ingot.
The shopkeeper hurriedly said: "Guest officer, you have given too much, a bowl of noodles is ten ......."
"For the rest, serve a few side dishes." Xiao Shulun said.
The shopkeeper spread his hands: "That's not enough." ”
"The rest is yours." Xiao Shulun said.
"To me?" The shop was pleasantly surprised. I have probably never seen such a generous guest as Xiao Shulun.
"yes." Xiao Shulun smiled, "Take it." ”
The shopkeeper was grateful: "Thank you, guest officer!" Thank you, guest! ”
"Don't rush to thank me just yet." Xiao Shulun squinted and smiled.
The shopkeeper was stunned.
I only heard Xiao Shulun say: "I have a few questions I want to ask you, if you answer well, I still have silver." ”
"Guest officer, just ask!" The shopkeeper said, "But what I know!" I'll tell you both! ”
"Do you know Yang Shiqi?" Xiao Shulun asked.
"You mean, Yang Gongzi of the Yang family?"
"Yes." Xiao Shulun bowed.
"Wasn't he killed by Miss Zou?" The shop is small and two-way.
Xiao Shulun was stunned: "What did you say?" ”
The shopkeeper was cautious: "I said something wrong?" ”
"It's not." Xiao Shulun looked at him without blinking, "How do you know that Yang Shiqi was killed by Miss Zou Family?" ”
"Just spread!" The shopkeeper said, "The guests who ate here just now are all talking about it. ”
When Xiao Shulun heard this, he looked at Gao Jingchuan.
Gao Jingchuan was also thoughtful at this time.
"Did you tell me how you killed it?" Gao Jingchuan asked.
"I heard that he instructed to kill people!" The shopkeeper took Xiao Shulun's silver and told him in great detail, "I heard that Miss Zhao instructed the guards around her to kill Yang Gongzi!" ”
"Why kill people?" Gao Jingchuan asked again.
The shopkeeper said: "Because of being divorced, Miss Zou hates Yang Gongzi very much!" ”
Gao Jingchuan looked at Xiao Shulun.
The two had a tacit understanding.
Not long after Liu Baiwang's surrender happened, the news spread in Qiu Cheng.
If there is no one behind them, they don't believe it anyway!
"Guest, what else do you want to ask?" The shopkeeper can be described as conscientious.
Xiao Shulun smiled, let him relax, and asked, "Do you believe it?" ”
"What?"
"Do you believe that Miss Zou instructed someone to kill Yang Gongzi?"
The shopkeeper scratched the back of his head: "This...... I don't know. ”
To put it bluntly, they are more of a spectator, and it doesn't matter who killed whom, as long as they listen to the excitement.
Gao Jingchuan asked: "Yang Shiqi often comes to your store to eat noodles?" ”
"Yes." The shopkeeper replied, "I often come to eat noodles." ”
"What is your impression of him?" Gao Jingchuan asked.
"You ask me?" The shopkeeper pointed to his nose, probably not understanding why Gao Jingchuan asked him this.
"Yang Gongzi is like that......" said the shopkeeper, "he likes to eat our Yangchun noodles, and he will come over to eat noodles from time to time." ”
"He's alone?"
"Yes." "Almost every time, he is alone, and I have never seen anyone else with him." ”
"Finish eating noodles and leave?" Xiao Shulun asked again.
"yes." The shopkeeper replied, "Yang Gongzi is an ordinary regular customer. ”
"Are you familiar with him?"
"Not familiar." The shopkeeper said, "He can't talk well, he finishes eating noodles and leaves after checkout." Is there anything else you'd like to ask, officer? ”
"I'm done." Xiao Shulun took out another ingot of silver from his sleeve.
"Guest! You're so kind! The shopkeeper smiled so much that he couldn't see his teeth.
…………
…………
The shopkeeper went down.
Xiao Shulun looked at Gao Jingchuan: "What do you think?" ”
"I don't think the purpose of Yang Shiqi's coming to this store will be so simple."
"I think so." Xiao Shulun said, "Unless this family's Yangchun noodles are particularly delicious!" ”
Gao Jingchuan couldn't help but smile.
Soon, the two of them were brought up.
The shopkeeper took Xiao Shulun's money, and the side dishes served were all full portions.
"Guest officer, you try it, this is our family's signature Yangchun noodles!"
Xiao Shulun looked at the noodles in the bowl, for the third son, who is used to eating delicacies from the mountains and seas, this bowl of noodles looks average.
You can't just look at the appearance.
Xiao Shulun picked up the noodles and tasted them.
Then, his expression paused slightly.
Gao Jingchuan on the other side smiled: "Delicious? ”
"How can you say it......" Xiao Shulun took a sip of soup and said, "It's a bit of a Yecheng feeling." ”
"Yecheng?" Gao Jingchuan was puzzled.
"Qiucheng is in the north, Yecheng is in the south......" Xiao Shulun said, "the north side is thicker in the red sauce, and the south side is more light and refreshing......
Xiao Shulun ordered his Yangchun noodles: "This noodles are somewhat similar to the taste we ate when we were in Yecheng." ”
At this time, Gao Jingchuan also tasted it.
"That's true."
Xiao Shulun looked at the shopkeeper on the side and said, "Who made this noodle?" ”
"Master Fang......"
"Can we meet him?"
"Okay." The shopkeeper said, "I'm just going to ask Chef Fang to come out." ”
The shopkeeper went down, and soon, a middle-aged woman came out of the back kitchen, she was a little thin, and she had the cringe of a small common man in her eyes.
"Two guest officers." The middle-aged woman looked at Gao Jingchuan and Xiao Shulun cautiously.
"You made this one?" Xiao Shulun asked.
"Yes, yes......"
"Listening to your accent, you don't seem to be from Qiu Cheng?"
"My hometown is the ...... of Bo"
"Oh, I see." Xiao Shulun smiled and said, "The noodles you made are delicious, and they remind me of the taste of my hometown, and I forgot to say that I am from Yecheng." ”
Bocheng is in the south of Yecheng, and it is not particularly far away.
Fang Chef Niang was not so nervous in the face of Xiao Shulun's generosity, she said: "Childe's accent doesn't sound like it is from the area of Yecheng......"
"I went to Loking later." Xiao Shulun closed his eyes and was blind.
"That's it......" The cook rubbed her hands, "I don't know, Childe called me, it's ......"
"It's okay, I just tasted the taste of my hometown and wanted to see who made the noodles."
"Thank you for liking." Chef Fang smiled.
Xiao Shulun said again: "I am Yecheng, you are Bocheng...... Speaking of which, we're half a fellow countryman. ”
"Yes, yes......"
"Are you alone in Qiu City?" Xiao Shulun said, "What about your family? ”
"I have a daughter...... "Chef Fang said.
Xiao Shulun nodded.
"What does she do?" Gao Jingchuan, who had not spoken, suddenly asked.
Chef Fang said: "Make a maid for someone." ”
Gao Jingchuan asked again: "In which mansion?" ”
"Zou, Zou Mansion ......" Chef Fang swallowed her saliva and said, "What's wrong?" ”
"It's fine." Gao Jingchuan said, "Just ask casually." ”
"Oh......"
"Something happened to Zou Mansion recently." Xiao Shulun took Gao Jingchuan's words and continued to ask, "Do you know? ”
"I've heard about it." Fang Chef Niang said, "Yang Gongzi was killed in Zou Mansion. ”
"Do you know Young Master Yang?" Gao Jingchuan said, "He often comes to this noodle restaurant to eat noodles. ”
"I don't know much." Chef Fang said, "I have always been in the back kitchen......"
Gao Jingchuan nodded lightly, and suddenly asked, "Is your daughter's name Xiangcui?" ”
"How do you know?" Chef Fang was taken aback, "Guest officer, you, you are ......"
"Don't be afraid." Gao Jingchuan said, "We are investigating the case. ”
"Although my daughter is a maid from the Zou Mansion, she doesn't know anything...... She ......"
Gao Jingchuan nodded soothingly: "I know, I said it, you don't have to be nervous......"
Chef Fang tensed her body and nodded stiffly.
"You go down first." Xiao Shulun smiled, making Chef Fang also relax.
"Yes......"
Chef Fang was puzzled, looked at the two of them several times uneasily, and left this time.
After she left, Xiao Shulun suddenly looked at the shopkeeper and said, "On the day Yang Gongzi was killed, did you come to your shop?" ”
"This ......" shopkeeper tilted his head, "I've ...... after a long time"
"Think about it." Gao Jingchuan on the side reminded, "On the day Miss Zou threw the hydrangea, did Yang Shiqi come to your store?" ”
"The day the hydrangea was thrown......"
With the lead, the shopkeeper patted his head: "I remembered!" Yang Gongzi has been here! He ate a bowl of noodles! And left! ”
"Yangchun noodles to eat?"
"It should be!" The shopkeeper said, "Every time he comes, he orders Yangchun noodles!" ”
Gao Jingchuan bowed his head slightly and said, "Thank you." ”
The shopkeeper was thanked and a little embarrassed.
"Then guest officer, you eat slowly, I'll go down first......"
…………
…………
Eating a bowl of noodles at the auspicious noodle restaurant, Gao Jingchuan and Xiao Shulun came out.
The two looked at each other and understood each other.
"This Fang Chef Niang, I want to check it." Gao Jingchuan said.
"Hmm." Xiao Shulun said, "I went to the county government to send someone to follow her." “
"Don't startle the snake."
"No problem." Xiao Shulun nodded.
"I'll go to Zou Mansion to see that maid again." Gao Jingchuan said.
"Hmm!" Xiao Shulun said, "That maid has an ambiguous relationship with Yang Shiqi, and now Chef Fang is the maid's mother...... Yang Shiqi often comes to Chef Fang's place to eat noodles......"
The connection between them is so obvious, you must ask Xiangcui in person.
"Then we divide into two ways?" Xiao Shulun said.
"Hmm." Gao Jingchuan said, "I'll see you in Zou Mansion in a while." ”
"Okay."
…………
…………
The two separated at the auspicious noodle restaurant, one went to the county government and the other went to the Zou Mansion.
When Xiao Shulun came to the county office, he happened to see the head catcher in charge of the Zou Mansion case and walked out.
"King catches heads!" Xiao Shulun beckoned, "It's just right, I'm looking for you." ”
"Lord Xiao, are you looking for me?" Wang Zhutou said, "I'm just looking for you too?!" ”
"You're looking for me?"
"That's right!" Wang Zhutou said, "You asked us to check the details of Liu Baiwang, and we have found out clearly. ”
"Great!" Xiao Shulun smiled.
"What are you looking for me for?" ”
"Oh, that's right." Xiao Shulun said, "You send a reliable brother and let him secretly follow the Fang Chef of the Jixiang Noodle Restaurant." ”
Wang Zhutou was confused: "Stalking a cook? ”
Xiao Shulun nodded: "Once Chef Fang has any trouble, let him hurry up and report."
"No problem." Wang Zhutou patted his chest.
