Chapter 77: Gathering Crowds to Gamble
Lin Xue'er's face turned pale suddenly, and her figure shook slightly: "My lord......"
Xie Jinlan raised his eyebrows: "As long as you are no longer Wang Tianci's aunt, and you are sincere, this official will make an exception to recruit you to the county government as a sprinkler and sweeper." Doesn't it mean that you are willing to be a slave for your own officials? Aunt Xue didn't look happy. ”
Lin Xue'er wanted to cry: "My lord, even if you don't like Xue'er, why do you want to abuse Xue'er so badly?" ”
So saying, she hid her face and turned away.
Looking at Lin Xue'er who was trotting past him, Lu Shui was surprised: What did Master Xie say? It scared my aunt away directly!
Raising his eyes and glancing at Xie Jinlan's side face not far away, Lu Shui instantly lowered his head again, and his heart was very entangled.
Xie Jinlan didn't care what the master and servant were thinking, and walked straight to the other side of the lotus pond.
Ruan Yezhen watched Lin Xue'er's back disappear into the arch with some schadenfreude, and then retracted her gaze: "Xie Jinlan, there are new clues in the case?" ”
Xie Jinlan didn't stop at his feet, but he said casually: "Those five suspects, have you gained?" ”
Ruan Yezhen was stunned for a moment, and then quickly floated towards the direction where Lin Xue'er left.
Out of the garden, looking at the white figure on the verandah, Ruan Yezhen breathed a sigh of relief: Fortunately, she didn't go far.
When she got closer, Ruan Yezhen realized that although Lin Xue'er had a gentle smile on her face, the handkerchief in her hand was about to be twisted into twists by her.
At the same time, she muttered viciously, "Damn it! Could it be that this Xie Jinlan is really so oily and salty? ”
As soon as her beautiful eyes rolled, she whispered again: "It seems that you can only use that trick." ”
Soon after Lin Xue'er returned to the courtyard, Lu Shui also returned.
Nervously entered the bedroom, Lu Shui thought that things were not going well, and Lin Xue'er would be angry with her. Unexpectedly, the other party just lightly revealed the matter, and after telling her to continue to pay attention to Lord Xie's movements, he let her retreat.
Although Lu Shui didn't know what her aunt was thinking, she was relieved to avoid the pain of flesh and skin, and she was no longer curious.
After Lu Shui exited the bedroom and closed the door, Lin Xue'er got up and slowly came to the dresser and sat down.
I saw her take the jewelry box on the dresser, gently open the bottom drawer, take out all the earrings in it, and fumble in the empty drawer.
After a 'click', a small wooden board was taken out of the drawer by Lin Xue'er.
Ruan Yezhen's face flashed with a little surprise: I never thought that this jewelry box was actually unique!
Looking up, I saw a small blue and white porcelain vase lying quietly in a drawer.
Lin Xue'er reached out and took it, and after pulling out the wooden cork on the mouth of the bottle, she leaned under her nose and sniffed gently. Then he stuffed the plug back again, and showed a slightly satisfied look on his face: "This Wang Tianci has left me a good thing." ”
Although I don't know what is in the porcelain vase, but looking at Lin Xue'er's demeanor, Ruan Yezhen knows that this is probably not a good thing.
Thinking of her whispers when she copied the verandah, Ruan Yezhen's heart tightened: Could it be that this is used to deal with Xie Jinlan?
Holding back the emotions in her heart, Ruan Yezhen continued to observe Lin Xue'er's every move.
It's just an hour down, and Ruan Yezhen has found nothing.
This Lin Xue'er sometimes asked Lu Shui to tell the small kitchen to make some delicious snacks, sometimes asked Lu Shui to pinch his shoulders and beat his legs, and sometimes asked Lu Shui to take out all kinds of jewelry to admire......
Pile by pile, everything is just pleasure.
Ruan Yezhen thought to herself: If this person is really the real murderer of Wang Tianci, then will she still have the heart to hook up with Xie Jinlan? Can you still be so laid-back?
Finally, after taking a deep look at Lin Xue'er, Ruan Yezhen decided to go and see the other suspects.
It's just that as soon as she got out of the courtyard, she was instantly a little dazed: where are those four people at this moment? She is unfamiliar with life, and she doesn't know the way, how to find them?
Then he shook his head slightly: Forget it, let's get out of here first.
Out of the backyard, Ruan Yezhen walked aimlessly, and after a while, she came to a relatively remote courtyard, and faint shouts came into her ears.
Her ears moved slightly, and she drifted in the direction of the sound.
"Big big!"
"Tiny!"
......
The closer you go, the clearer the shouting becomes.
It wasn't until she got close to a house and made sure that the sound was coming from inside, and Ruan Yezhen went straight through the door.
After quickly looking around, and seeing the quilt that was neatly folded or turned over at random, Ruan Yezhen knew that this was a subordinate room.
Her eyes fell on the excited voices of the little guys who were gathered in a circle, and she walked directly through the crowd to the front.
I saw a square table, with small stones pressed on the left and right sides of the paper with the words 'big' and 'small', and under the two pieces of paper, there were some copper plates. On top of these two sheets of paper, a piece of paper with the words 'Leopard' written on it was pressed.
On the table was a porcelain bowl with rough workmanship. The porcelain bowl is pressed with a large, dark and wrinkled hand.
When his gaze moved up, he saw a dark-faced, fierce-looking little guy sitting there. The big hand swayed back and forth against the porcelain bowl, and the contents made a crisp crashing sound.
The rest of the crowd stared closely at the porcelain bowl in his hand, and the words were in their mouths.
Suddenly, as soon as the porcelain bowl stopped, the little guy slowly lifted the porcelain bowl, looked at the few still dice, and said loudly: "One, two, three, small!" ”
Then the copper plate under the word "big" is closed, and according to the number of copper plates under the word "small", some copper plates are divided.
Rao had never seen such a scene before, but Ruan Yezhen had also heard of it, and she knew that these people were gambling.
One of them was about seventeen or eighteen years old, with a thin body and a little difficulty in moving his right arm, and his face was very uncertain: "I haven't won a handful today!" Don't play, don't play! ”
As he spoke, he squeezed out of the crowd and sat down heavily on the bed.
The crowd looked at each other, and after a moment they dispersed.
This is the end of the game.
Ruan Yezhen followed to the edge of the bed, glanced up and down at the little girl, and stared at his right arm for a while: Isn't this person Wang Yi?
The next moment, her suspicion was confirmed.
A little servant who seemed to have a good relationship with him walked to his side and sat down: "Wang Yi, the young master doesn't reward you less on weekdays, right?" I've just lost so much today, as for it? ”
Wang Yi glared at the man fiercely: "What do you kid know?" On weekdays, I rely on the young master. Now that the young master is dead, I don't know whose yard I will be assigned to, what kind of work I will do, and I can't save some money with this money! ”
The man touched his nose wryly: "What you said also makes sense." What are you going to do in the future? ”
