Chapter Ninety-Seven: Scared to Death
"Auntie." Zhang Jingshu's voice came.
Only then did Mrs. Sun come back to her senses.
Zhang Jingshu turned her head to look at Mrs. An Yihou: "Mrs. Hou is asking you." ”
Second Mrs. Sun didn't hear a word, and looked at Mrs. An Yihou with an embarrassed expression: "Madam, what are you talking about?" ”
Mrs. An Yihou didn't care about this, and repeated it again: "I just asked if the second wife's family has everything been dealt with?" The second master is going to be sent back to the clan for burial, right? ”
Second Mrs. Sun nodded: "Yes...... I want to go back, but the top priority is to catch the murderer, I heard that the Xu family also had an accident a few days ago, but fortunately, the Marquis of Anyi and his wife can be safe. ”
Without waiting for Mrs. An Yihou to speak, Second Mrs. Sun continued: "It's all thanks to Mrs. An having a good daughter. ”
Second Mrs. Sun's words were smooth, but her heart was inevitably difficult, she actually ended up in such a situation, and she wanted to curry favor with the Marquis of Anyi.
The Sun family and the Zhang family are in-laws, An Yihou and Zhang Jiazheng have different views in the court, and there are fights in the open and in secret.
If it weren't for the rush to the doctor, she would never have come to visit.
As long as she thought about it, she felt very aggrieved if she wanted to bow her head to such a declining noble family.
Second Mrs. Sun's nose was sour, and tears really fell.
Zhang Jingshu kept looking at the door, Xu Qinghuan didn't know what Qiao was taking, he hadn't appeared yet, his aunt spent money to beat the jailer, and let the jailer interrogate the two thieves, knowing that the person who led them to tell the truth that night was Xu Qinghuan.
After my aunt knew the truth, she had to come to see Xu Qinghuan to feel at ease.
In fact, according to her meaning, my aunt doesn't have to work so hard, the last time she asked Xu Qinghuan about Miss Wang, Xu Qinghuan didn't say anything.
If it weren't for her cousin's face, she wouldn't have accompanied her aunt on this trip, thinking about her cousin's filial piety clothes, she felt distressed, but the white clothes felt that her cousin was more clear, and the whole person was like a snow lotus in the Tianshan Mountains, there were so many children of rich and noble families in Beijing, but none of them were as good-looking as her cousin.
"The eldest lady is here." The maid's voice interrupted Zhang Jingshu's thoughts.
Mrs. An Yihou's face was full of smiles, and the atmosphere in the room seemed to have become warmer, sweeping away the sorrow brought by Second Mrs. Sun.
Xu Qinghuan stepped forward and saluted.
Second Mrs. Sun said busily: "Miss Xu is really getting more and more beautiful, and she looks more pleasing than anyone else." ”
Zhang Jingshu's hairs stood on end, she had long known that her aunt had a good tongue, she talked about people when she saw people, and she talked nonsense when she saw them, if she didn't have such skills, how could her aunt remarry to the Sun family after she was dismissed.
But even if she is prepared in her heart, it is still uncomfortable to listen to it in her ears now, with her here, what is Xu Qinghuan?
In the future, her mother will honor the world, Xu Qinghuan will kneel in front of her and salute, as long as she is not satisfied, Xu Qinghuan can not kneel for a long time.
Zhang Jingshu raised her chin slightly, and a contemptuous smile flashed on her face.
Xu Qinghuan said: "Second Mrs. Sun came here for the two thieves that my brother caught last night?" ”
Second Mrs. Sun bowed her head: "If it was an ordinary matter, I wouldn't dare to come to bother Miss Xu." ”
Xu Qinghuan looked at Second Mrs. Sun, only to see that her eyes were sunken, she looked indescribably haggard, and there was a fear in her expression, obviously not only because of the death of Second Master Sun, but also worried about her own safety.
Xu Qinghuan said unhurriedly: "I heard that Shuntianfu sentenced Huang Qinghe to judge the case like a god, didn't Second Mrs. Sun ask Lord Huang about the case?" ”
"Asked," Second Mrs. Sun was even more anxious, "but I see that the yamen has not thought about it at all, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to find clues for a while." ”
"It's only been a day," Xu Qinghuan said, "The second wife waits with peace of mind, and I can't say that there will be good news soon." ”
Mrs. Sun shook her head: "I'...... I'm afraid that they haven't found the murderer yet, and the murderer will do it again," he said, looking at Xu Qinghuan tightly, "Miss Xu, I just came here this time to ask, the two people who caught it are really thieves?" Is it possible that they teamed up with that murderer to kill my master? ”
Xu Qinghuan seemed to be a little surprised: "How can the second wife see it?" ”
"Because they have my lord's purse in their hands."
"What kind of credential is this?"
"Because ......" Second Mrs. Sun swallowed, looking at Miss Xu's clear eyes, she had an impulse to tell everything that had happened so far, only in this way could she feel better, "because every time this murderer kills someone, he will take something away, and the next time he wants to kill someone, this thing will appear...... Appears on the next person he is going to kill. ”
When Zhang Jingshu heard this, she couldn't help but widen her eyes, her aunt must be crazy, where could there be such a thing.
"What I said is true." Mrs. Sun also said these words to the people in the yamen, but the people in the yamen just wrote down her words in the paperwork, and there was no follow-up, as if she was the only one in the world who was in a hurry, as long as she thought about her, she couldn't sit still.
Second Mrs. Sun continued: "When my master was found, he only lost his purse, and now this purse is found in the hands of two thieves, and they ...... Could they be murderers? ”
Although Xu Qinghuan didn't know why Second Mrs. Sun was so determined, she had already understood the intention of Second Mrs. Sun's visit this time, and Second Mrs. Sun must have told Huang Qinghe these words, and Second Mrs. Sun thought that as long as the yamen started from here, the case would definitely make progress.
The verdict relied on solid evidence, Huang Qinghe could only promise to do everything according to the rules, and it took time to solve the case, but the second wife Sun was crushed by fear, every moment was torment for her, and there was no news from the court for a long time, so she was afraid that the court would not let go of the murderer because of negligence.
So even if she didn't trust the Anyi Hou Mansion, Second Mrs. Sun still came to the door, hoping that she could help the Yamen find some clues, as long as one more person was involved in this case, it would be possible to be more sure of catching the murderer, and Second Mrs. Sun would feel safer.
Xu Qinghuan's eyes are clear, and the current state of Second Mrs. Sun is also the best time for her to understand the whole case.
"What is the evidence for the second wife's words," Xu Qinghuan said, "If you don't explain it carefully, I won't be able to do it." ”
Looking at Xu Qinghuan, Second Mrs. Sun swallowed and began to tell the whole story.
The murderer took the jade pendant from the uncle of the Sun family, and took the fan pendant from the hand of the strict master.
If those two thieves had nothing to do with the murderer, the murderer didn't seem to take anything from Second Master Sun.
Will it all end there?
Xu Qinghuan thought for a moment, raised his eyes and said, "Second wife, what kind of business is that Master Yan doing?" ”
"I don't know about everything." Second Mrs. Sun's eyes flickered.
Xu Qinghuan said: "Then do you buy and sell jade?" ”
Second Mrs. Sun nodded: "That's natural, the Yan family started by selling jade." She suddenly covered her mouth, could it be that the murderer had already calculated who he would kill from the time he took the jade.
"But why, do you want to take away the fan pendant from Master Yan, what does this have to do with my master?" Second Mrs. Sun's face turned pale.
Xu Qinghuan said: "The murderer may not always be able to find the exact object to indicate who is the next person he wants to kill. ”
A fan pendant is just a decoration.
Perhaps for the Zhang family, the Sun family has always been an ornament.
Second Mrs. Sun's fingers trembled slightly: "If the master's purse was not taken by the murderer, then ...... Does that mean that murderers don't kill anymore? ”
"Maybe the thugs have taken something." Xu Qinghuan raised his eyes and looked at Second Mrs. Sun.
"What?" Second Mrs. Sun's voice was hoarse.
"Tongue, Second Master Sun's tongue."
Second Mrs. Sun only felt an inexplicable fear coming down to her, and she collapsed in the chair.
"What nonsense are you talking about," Zhang Jingshu got up, "Auntie, don't listen to her nonsense, this is nothing at all, she is deliberately scaring you again." ”
Tongue.
Second Mrs. Sun still wanted to speak, but her eyes were black, and then her chest hurt, and she fainted.
"Someone," Zhang Jingshu shouted loudly, "Hurry up...... Fast...... When I went to find Langzhong, Miss Xu scared my aunt out. ”
As soon as the words fell, Zhang Jingshu saw Xu Qinghuan pick up the tea bowl, raise his hand, and splash all the tea.
The tea poured on Mrs. Sun's face, and Mrs. Sun's throat immediately made a "gurgling" sound.
