Early the next morning, after breakfast, Xie Jinlan accompanied Li Youcai out to hang out, and Mo Yan stayed at home alone.

A moment later, the two came to the doorway of a house.

When I looked up, I saw that the gate was open, and there were already a lot of middle-aged men and women sitting in the courtyard.

As soon as they saw Li Youcai and Xie Jinlan, they hurriedly beckoned them in.

When Xie Jinlan helped Li Youcai sit down, someone smiled and said: "Da Niu Dad, this young man is the Jin Lan you talked about yesterday, right?" She's so handsome! ”

Li Youcai's chin was slightly raised, and his face showed a smug expression: "That's, don't look at whose young man this is!" ”

When the words fell, Li Youcai couldn't help coughing.

Xie Jinlan hurriedly got up and patted his back, his face was bright and worried: "Cousin-in-law, just listen." If you have anything to say, give me a look, and I'll do it for you. ”

Li Youcai stopped coughing, took Xie Jinlan's right hand and patted it gently, and nodded approvingly.

When the people on the side saw it, they couldn't help but joke:

"Yo, Da Niu Dad, your cousin is really filial."

"That's it, that's it, that's it."

"My stinky boy, it's good if I don't get angry one day."

……

At this time, one of the slightly chubby ladies looked at Xie Jinlan and said, "Young man, how old are you this year?" Are you married? ”

When Xie Jinlan heard this, his face turned red, and he opened his mouth a little hesitantly: "Second ...... Twenty years old...... Still...... Not yet...... Marriage ......"

Another shorter lady then asked, "Do you have a girl you like?" ”

Xie Jinlan's face turned even redder, shook his head slightly, and said in a low voice, "No...... There is no ......"

The lady who spoke earlier instantly lit up her eyes: "Young man, do you want me to keep you a matchmaker?" ”

As soon as this remark came out, everyone echoed it:

"The young man is so handsome, this matchmaker can be guaranteed in a while."

"Dahai damn it, these people in our yard are all witnesses. You have taken the matchmaker's red envelope at this time, but you have to invite everyone to a meal. ”

"Young man, if you have any requirements for the girl, just tell the sea mother, don't be embarrassed."

……

In the next few days, Xie Jinlan accompanied Li Youcai to visit each house.

Soon, most of the families in Lijia Village knew that Li Daniu's family had two brothers. Especially the older one, it's very handsome! And they haven't married yet!

Many girls secretly glanced at it from a distance out of curiosity.

Some of them are bold, and they even go directly to talk.

It's just that after inquiring about Xie Jinlan's family background, many girls retreated.

This person is good-looking, and he can only take a few more glances on weekdays, but he can't eat it as a meal. Although I have read books for more than ten years, I haven't been able to get any fame, what's the use?

I heard that I now plan to learn to be a carpenter with Li Daniu. Let's wait until he learns something.

Dahai and Li's fourth daughter-in-law, Qian, thought that it was an extremely simple matter to protect Xie Jinlan.

Na Cheng thought that these girls were always talking about which young man was good-looking and wanted to marry such a man, but it turned out that they were just casual words.

Thinking of what he had said to Xie Jinlan with a pat on his chest, Qian only felt that his face was hot.

There won't be a girl who wants to marry this young man!

Thinking like this, Qian began to observe the little girls in the village.

As for the damn sea, I stopped thinking about it.

At the beginning, I just said casually, even if this matchmaker can't be guaranteed, it won't damage the friendship between the two families.

Two days passed peacefully.

At noon that day, Xie Jinlan, Mo Yan, and Li Youcai had just finished lunch, and there was a knock on the door.

"It's coming!"

Mo Yan answered loudly, and trotted to open the door.

When he saw the scholar-looking man standing outside the door, Mo Yan was slightly stunned: "Master Chen? ”

Master Chen bowed slightly, then looked inside the door, and said in a low voice, "My lord?" ”

Mo Yan replied with a smile: "Yes." ”

Then he turned sideways and let Master Chen enter the house.

"Mo Yan, who is here?"

At this time, Xie Jinlan helped Li Youcai to the front yard.

After seeing who it was, Xie Jinlan paused: "Ziyu? You're here to find me? ”

Master Chen took a few steps forward, with a bit of joy in his eyes: "Yanzhi." ”

Li Youcai squinted his eyes and looked at Master Chen, and then looked at Xie Jinlan: "Jin Lan, who is this person?" ”

Xie Jinlan said with a smile: "Cousin-in-law, this is Master Chen of Lin'an County, I mentioned to you that we used to be classmates. ”

Then he looked at Master Chen: "Ziyu, this is my cousin-in-law, you can call him a talented uncle." ”

Master Chen was slightly stunned, but he quickly put away the look of surprise on his face, and bowed slightly to Li Youcai: "Uncle Cai." ”

Li Youcai waved his hand again and again: "Oh, my old man doesn't dare to be it." It's up to me to salute the adults. ”

Li Youcai said, taking Xie Jinlan's hand, and slowly bent his knees.

Xie Jinlan glanced at Master Chen.

Master Chen immediately reached out and supported Li Youcai's arms:

"I have a friendship with Yanzhi. Uncle Youcai is also my elder, so I don't have to be so polite. Besides, I came today only as a friend to find Yanzhi. ”

Li Youcai saw that what Master Chen said was not polite, so he got up with his strength.

"Cousin-in-law, I have some private things to talk about with Ziyu, so you can go back to the house and rest first."

Xie Jinlan said, looking at Mo Yan, who was already standing beside Li Youcai: "Mo Yan, you can help your cousin-in-law back to the house." ”

Mo Yan responded with a smile: "Big brother, you talk to Master Chen slowly." ”

As soon as the door of Li Youcai's house was closed, Xie Jinlan looked at Master Chen with a smile: "But the two things I asked you to check have been settled?" ”

Master Chen nodded, and his eyes couldn't hide his joy: "The lower official has been pestering Lin Cheng for a long time, but he can be regarded as staring at him to check things out." ”

Thinking of Lin Chengzuo's temperament, Xie Jinlan couldn't help but look at Master Chen teasingly: "Presumably, you have been scolded a lot by him in the past few days, right?" ”

Master Chen's face was slightly red, but his eyes were full of determination: "As long as it helps this murder case, even if you are scolded by Lin Cheng for a few more days!" ”

Xie Jinlan raised his eyebrows undeniably: "So, what is the result of Lin Yanzuo's inspection?" ”

Master Chen's face straightened and said, "According to Lin Cheng's many inspections, in addition to a little soil, there are two other things mixed in the brown foreign body. ”

After a pause, Master Chen continued:

"One of them is cloth shavings. The linen crumbs found in Li Bao'er's mouth and nose should be from the same linen cloth. As for the other ...... It's human dander. ”

Xie Jinlan's eyebrows twisted slightly: "Human dander? ”
