Chapter 46: The taste of sour plum soup
Xie Jinlan was stunned for a moment: Good manner, why does this girl scold herself?
As soon as she saw Xie Jinlan's expression, Ruan Yezhen knew that he had misunderstood, and explained with a slightly red face:
"Since I was born, I have had a rare and strange disease. All people's voices have a taste in my ears, and they are all unique. Even if the person is good at ventriloquism, the taste will not change.
Your little guy Mo Yan, his voice is the smell of lotus leaf chicken. The murderer's voice that night was the smell of rock sugar gourds. Chen's voice was bitter and medicated.
I know these words sound outrageous and hard to believe. But I promise that everything I say is true. I didn't lie to you! ”
Xie Jinlan was only a little surprised at the beginning. But soon, his complexion returned to normal.
After Ruan Yezhen finished speaking, and met her slightly anxious look, Xie Jinlan smiled slightly: "I believe what you said is true." ”
Ruan Yezhen was stunned for a moment, and then a big smile bloomed on her face: "Xie Jinlan, thank you for believing in me." ”
Then she looked pleading: "Besides my mother, you are the second person to know about this, please be sure to keep it a secret for me." ”
Xie Jinlan only felt a little funny: "Even if I want to say it, I'm afraid I can't tell anyone, right?" ”
Ruan Yezhen was stunned, and then smiled coquettishly: "That's right, that person will definitely think you have a brain disease at that time." ”
As if thinking of something, Xie Jinlan was a little curious: "Then what does my voice taste like?" ”
Ruan Yezhen blinked mysteriously: "Do you remember the first time I went to the county government to find you, I asked you to say five more words?" ”
How could Xie Jinlan forget: "At that time, I just felt strange. Now it seems that it is related to your strange illness. ”
Ruan Yezhen gave Xie Jinlan a 'you are so smart' look:
"Your voice is the only one I've encountered so far that doesn't have a taste. At the time, I thought I was too flustered and anxious, and that's why I had the illusion. That's why I asked you to say a few more words to confirm. ”
A hint of interest crossed Xie Jinlan's eyes: "Oh? How so? ”
Ruan Yezhen looked at the person in front of her quite excitedly:
"Xie Jinlan, do you say that there is a special fate between us? Only you can see me now. And your voice alone doesn't sound like anything to me, it's just an ordinary voice. ”
Xie Jinlan's heart moved slightly, and then he looked at the woman in front of him with a smile: "Girl, don't say this casually in the future." ”
Ruan Yezhen was slightly stunned: "Why?" ”
Looking at Ruan Yezhen's ignorant appearance, Xie Jinlan didn't explain much, but said: "You just need to know that you can't say such things to others at will in the future, especially young men." ”
Ruan Yezhen muttered rather depressedly: "But what I'm saying is the truth." What's more, how can there be so many special men like you? ”
Xie Jinlan just pretended that he hadn't heard.
Ruan Yezhen didn't hold on to this, thinking of the previous topic, she looked at the man in front of her quite anxiously: "Xie Jinlan, now that the Chen family has ruled out suspicion, who else is suspicious?" ”
Xie Jinlan's eyebrows twisted slightly, and after pondering for a moment, he said, "Girl, you go with me to meet a few people and listen to what their voices taste!" ”
Ruan Yezhen asked curiously: "Are those people suspicious?" ”
Xie Jinlan shook his head slightly: "Originally, there was no suspicion, but now...... Maybe my reasoning was wrong. ”
As if thinking of something, a trace of eagerness flashed in Xie Jinlan's eyes: "Oh no! ”
Without waiting for Ruan Yezhen's reaction, he left the room like the wind, and he didn't even have time to close the door.
Seeing Xie Jinlan jump onto the wall, and then disappear outside the wall. Ruan Yezhen suddenly came back to her senses, and then followed the direction in which Xie Jinlan disappeared and floated out of the house.
Seeing Xie Jinlan's back running wildly, Ruan Yezhen followed closely.
Since they met, she had never seen Xie Jinlan look so anxious, and that matter must be very serious......
Rushing to the door of Widow Yang's house, Xie Jinlan knocked on the door eagerly before he could even breathe.
However, there was no reaction in the house.
Xie Jinlan couldn't, so he could only shout: "Sister Xiaoyu, I'm Jin Lan!" Are you at home? ”
A moment later, Widow Yang's echo voice came from inside the house: "This is coming!" ”
At this time, Ruan Yezhen on the side interjected: "This person's voice is the taste of sour plum soup, she is not the murderer." ”
When Xie Jinlan heard this, his movements paused slightly, and his expression relaxed a little.
At this moment, the door was opened by Widow Yang from inside.
Xie Jinlan immediately restrained the strange look on his face, and asked with a smile: "Sister Xiaoyu, is Brother Da Niu here?" ”
As if remembering the first time the two met, Widow Yang smiled a little awkwardly: "He just came." ”
Then he turned sideways and let Xie Jinlan into the house.
After Widow Yang closed the door, Li Daniu immediately walked out of her bedroom and walked in front of Xie Jinlan suspiciously: "Jin Lan, what's wrong?" ”
Xie Jinlan glanced at Widow Yang not far away, pulled Li Daniu to the corner, and asked quietly:
"Brother Da Niu, did you tell Sister Xiaoyu about the incident I told you last night?"
Li Daniu shook his head: "I was just going to say it, but you came." ”
Xie Jinlan had an obviously relieved expression on his face: "It's good that I didn't say it." ”
Li Daniu was very puzzled: "What's the matter?" Can't say it again? ”
Xie Jinlan said in a low voice: "Brother Niu, Li Tiezhu's daughter-in-law is not a murderer. ”
Li Daniu was taken aback: "What?!" ”
Xie Jinlan hurriedly made a booing motion: "Brother Da Niu, be quiet!" What should I do if someone outside hears it? ”
Li Da Niu suddenly looked panicked and covered his mouth tightly.
After relieving his nerves, Li Daniu asked quietly, "What the hell is going on?" Why isn't Li Tiezhu's daughter-in-law a murderer? ”
Xie Jinlan's face was full of chagrin:
"It's all because I didn't think it through. Before the matter is decided, I will give you an idea. After you left this morning, Master Chen came to me. He said that Li Tiezhu's daughter-in-law was not a murderer, so I didn't have to pay attention to her in the future. ”
Li Daniu patted Xie Jinlan's shoulder comfortingly: "Jin Lan, don't blame yourself, in the end, you are also for me." Fortunately, nothing has happened yet. ”
After a pause, Li Daniu showed a few traces of disappointment on his face:
"It's just that this great opportunity is gone, and I don't know what Xiaoyu and I will do in the future......"
Xie Jinlan looked at Li Daniu, his eyes were full of determination:
"Brother Da Niu, don't worry, I will definitely help you with Sister Xiaoyu. If there is anything that needs help in this case, I will definitely find you as soon as possible! ”
