The room fell silent.

The girl sat there, not knowing what to think.

Aunt Wu felt that she had told everything, but this girl did not let her go, and she was even more flustered in her heart.

"I ...... I actually found the clue about the woman, and I haven't had time to tell Lin Sanniang," Aunt Wu stammered, "As long as you let me go, I'll tell it." ”

Xu Qinghuan shook his head: "You don't have the right to speak here, and you can't make any requests to me, otherwise you ......."

"I know," Aunt Wu's hairs stood on end, "I will listen to you for everything." ”

Xu Qinghuan said: "What else do you know?" ”

Aunt Wu swallowed: "When I was walking around, I knew that there was a family at the foot of the mountain, the man was a dumb man, I don't know when he married an ugly woman, the woman's face was blurred with flesh and blood, it was really scary, at first everyone thought that the man married a female ghost, and he would come out and walk around in the middle of the night, and everyone wanted to see the woman, but they were beaten out by the dumb person."

Many people in our village know about this, one year there was a plague in the village, and everyone thought that it was caused by the terrible ghost of the mute family, and I don't know who set a fire to the dumb man's house to burn the evil ghost to death. ”

Speaking of this, Aunt Wu seemed to have forgotten her fear, and her eyes flashed with pride: "Only I know that the ghost is not dead at all, and it is not a ghost, it is a real woman, because I passed by the house a while ago and heard the sound of a baby crying, can a ghost give birth to a child?"

If others may believe it, my wife has seen so many things, and she knows very well in her heart that there are no gods and ghosts in this world, unless you see it with your own eyes...... So that night I had the two children secretly go to the mute's house, and then I saw ......"

Aunt Wu saw that the girl was attentive, and when she said this, she deliberately showed a flattering expression: "I saw a woman on the dumb bed, and the woman was holding a child in her arms.

Not to mention how beautiful the child is, my family is also a kind-hearted person, for fear that it was the dumb child who deceived me, so I asked the mute and the woman carefully, and the woman said that the child was born and raised by her.

The woman said it was true, and we saw that she was pitiful, so we agreed to help her keep it a secret, and the woman also gave us something as a thank you. ”

Aunt Wu said in a low voice: "I saw the needlework that the woman made for the child, oops...... It was a beautiful thing, not a craft that we can see in the country, and some loose pieces of silver and a small gold lock with precious stones on it, which would be worth a lot of silver when sold.

Later, I wondered if Lin Sanniang was looking for that woman. ”

Xu Qinghuan said: "What about the things that the woman gave you?" But still? ”

"No," Aunt Wu swallowed, "only needle and thread...... I wore it on my body and sold everything else. ”

After saying this, Aunt Wu's eyes turned red: "Our family is old and young, and we have to live our lives, otherwise where will I help Lin Sanniang do that kind of unconscionable work, this Bodhisattva, please let us go!" ”

Without waiting for Aunt Wu to finish speaking, Xu Qinghuan tapped her fingers on the table, and Feng Xiao immediately stepped forward and grabbed another young woman.

Uncle Lei also went to carry the Wu brothers who were tied up like zongzi.

Aunt Wu was so frightened: "In the small box under my bed, I don't dare to use it, it's ...... It's all there. ”

Xu Qingan walked quickly to the inner room and rummaged for a while, found a wooden box, opened it and saw that there were several longevity locks inside, one of which was wrapped in a muslin cloth, and it was indeed a gold lock inlaid with precious stones.

"That's all," Aunt Wu said, "I've said it all this time." ”

"I believe it."

Under Aunt Wu's gaze, the girl finally spoke: "You don't dare to lie anymore, but ...... When I see my appearance, if I don't kill you, you will go to the police, and I am not ......"

"No...... No," Aunt Wu said, "We don't dare to report to the official, we also have human lives on our hands, if we report to the official, we will also die, it's true, there are several corpses buried in the vegetable field in the backyard of my house, all of them are children who died of illness before they were sent out, and when you leave, we will bury our daughter-in-law there, and now there will be a war in chaos, and no one will pay attention to these." ”

Aunt Wu said sincerely.

Xu Qinghuan shook his head: "I never believe in this kind of words, maybe you will change your words when you turn around." ”

"No...... Won't ......"

Xu Qinghuan refused to listen and nodded to Uncle Lei.

Uncle Lei immediately picked up Aunt Wu's son.

"I have accounts," Aunt Wu said, "I remember the accounts of every transaction clearly, as long as you take that account, you will hold the lives of our whole family, we are still useful to you, we know all the secrets in this place, especially those things that are not visible, we need to do it."

Next time...... Next time, you won't have to do it, people like you, just move your fingers, and we'll do it all. ”

"Is that what you're talking about?" Xu Qingan has already found the ledger.

Aunt Wu nodded again and again: "However, you may not be able to understand these, I am illiterate, and I use my own method to keep accounts." ”

Xu Qinghuan opened the account, and sure enough, there were no words in it, just circles.

Aunt Wu said: "I'll tell you, and you will know everything." ”

Xu Qinghuan flipped through the accounts, seemed to be a little interested for a while, and looked at Xu Qingan: "Brother, just write down everything she said!" ”

This account, which would have cost their entire family's lives, has been kept properly by Aunt Wu on weekdays, and she is afraid that there will be a slight mistake, but now she can't wait to tell it to others.

One stroke at a time, clearly.

For if only that man would listen, their whole family would be saved.

Xu Qing'an asked carefully, and Aunt Wu didn't dare to lie, and it took a whole hour to read everything recorded in the accounts.

Xu Qinghuan suddenly asked, "Is there any place where you lied to me?" ”

Aunt Wu kept shaking her head.

"No," Xu Qinghuan stood up, "You have ...... You broke into the dumb man's house not because you were worried that the dumb man would kidnap someone else's child, but because you felt that the mute was weak, and outsiders didn't know the situation in his home, so you snatched the child and sold the dumb man helplessly, and just when you were about to take the child, the child's mother would take out the golden lock and exchange it with you.

You let go of the mute family for the time being, because you think that there must be valuable things in the mute family, and you have to support their family, slowly find out their secrets, and then ask them for money.

It's not that you didn't have time to mention this matter to Lin Sanniang, but you didn't calculate how much silver this news would sell, and after telling Lin Sanniang, should you take out the things you found before. ”

Aunt Wu felt that the girl in front of her was unspeakably terrible.

"Are you afraid of me?" Xu Qinghuan squatted down and looked at Aunt Wu.

Aunt Wu nodded hurriedly.

Xu Qinghuan smiled slightly: "What you said is not right, there are gods and ghosts in this world, your family is a powerful ghost, you should be afraid when you meet me......"

Speaking of this, Xu Qinghuan's smile was even more moving: "Because I am a ghost eater for a living." ”

Aunt Wu was once again shrouded in fear: "You...... You...... And kill me...... You ......"

Xu Qinghuan stopped talking.

At this moment, the door was opened, and two servants entered.

Before Aunt Wu could react, Xu Qinghuan had already turned around, and she didn't want to be in the same room with such a beast anymore.

Xu Qinghuan walked out of the house, to her surprise, there were several people standing in the courtyard, the man headed by was heroic and heroic, it was Song Chengxuan, and next to him was Xue Shen, a military advisor with a deep expression.

Xu Qinghuan couldn't help but wipe the dried blood on her face with her hand, her current appearance would probably make the military advisor even more worried.

Xue Shen's face gradually became more ugly.

Xu Qinghuan sighed, alas, it was really not a good time to meet.
