Chapter 65: Not an example
The woman bit her lower lip slightly, twisted the embroidered handkerchief in her hand, and looked at Xie Jinlan with a sigh of desire.
Xie Jinlan was unmoved, and bowed slightly to the woman: "Madam, please take care of yourself, this official will take the first step." ”
And as he spoke, he passed over the woman.
The woman's lotus steps moved slightly, once again blocking Xie Jinlan's way, and said quietly: "Do you remember that on Tai'an Street more than a month ago, a woman named Xue'er sold her body to bury her mother?" ”
Xie Jinlan showed just the right amount of surprise on his face: "It turned out to be you." ”
Immediately, his eyebrows twisted slightly: "If you come to the official for justice for the matter of that day, please forgive the official for not being able to do anything." ”
Xue'er lowered her eyes slightly, raised the embroidered handkerchief in her hand and gently wiped away her tears: "Xue'er has already become the aunt in Wang Tianci's room." It's a foregone conclusion, so what's the use of talking about that? ”
Xie Jinlan's face flashed with a little puzzlement: "That lady is looking for this official...... What is it? ”
Xue'er hated Xie Jinlan's incomprehensible style in her heart, but she looked at Xie Jinlan with affection on her face, and her red lips opened lightly:
"Since I met the adults on that day, Cher's heart has long been left behind in the adult's body. It's just a pity that Xue'er doesn't know who the adult's surname is and where she lives.
I didn't even have a chance to sneak a glimpse of an adult. Fortunately, God had mercy on Xue'er and let her meet the adult again. Adult ......"
Xue'er's delicate and admiring appearance still didn't make Xie Jinlan feel crooked.
I saw that his eyebrows frowned slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "Madam, since you have become Wang Tianci's aunt, you should have broken off that idea that should not have been there early!" ”
Xue'er was anxious and blurted out: "But that Wang Tianci is dead now!" For the rest of her life, Cher just wants to follow the adults! Even if it is a slave or a slave! ”
Xie Jinlan suddenly raised his eyebrows, and looked at the woman in front of him with a smile: "Madam! How could you have such an idea? Isn't it Wang Tianci's death, which has something to do with you? ”
Xue'er suddenly became excited, and looked at Xie Jinlan with a sad expression: "My lord, it's Xue'er who doesn't choose what to say." Xue'er just loves adults too much, could it be that it has become a mistake like this? Could it be that in the hearts of adults, Cher is so unbearable? ”
Such a pear blossom with rain, and because of himself, ordinary men have seen it, and I am afraid that it will have softened a long time ago.
However, Xie Jinlan was completely unmoved and laughed quite playfully:
"It's only been a few hours since Wang Tianci died, and you, don't be sad and sad about it. He even stopped his official and did such a debauched thing! Didn't you really do something and want this official to protect you? ”
Xue'er involuntarily took a few steps back, and looked at Xie Jinlan with a pale face: "Master Xie, you ...... Are you really so ruthless? ”
Xie Jinlan's face suddenly condensed: "Don't take it as an example!" Please also ask the lady to do it herself! ”
The words fell, and he walked over Xue'er and strode forward.
Seeing Xie Jinlan's figure disappear around the corner, Xue'er bit her lower lip fiercely, tightly twisted the handkerchief in her hand, and murmured: "I don't believe it, there are really upright gentlemen in this world who are not confused by women!" ”
Finally, after taking a deep look at the direction where Xie Jinlan disappeared, Xue'er turned around, twisted her waist, and walked gracefully towards her yard.
Returning to the lotus pond again, Xie Jinlan found that Master Chen and the others had returned. At the moment, they were packing their things and planning to leave.
As for the previous guards, they were long gone. I don't know if I went on patrol or if I had something else to do.
Walking to the front of Master Chen, Xie Jinlan asked with a smile: "Master Chen, can you gain anything from the trip to the pavilion?" ”
Master Chen and the others behind him bowed to Xie Jinlan: "I've seen my lord." ”
Then Master Chen's eyebrows twisted slightly: "Xiaguan and Li Zhukuai have found something above and near the gazebo. It's just that whether those things are relevant to this case will need to be investigated before we can find out. ”
Xie Jinlan raised his eyebrows with interest: "Oh? What is it? ”
Master Chen's face turned slightly, and he raised his hand to signal Li Zhu to quickly present the things.
Taking a small jewelry box covered with mud in Li Zhukuai's hand, as well as an unknown item wrapped in a white cloth, Master Chen handed it to Xie Jinlan: "My lord, this is what we have discovered. ”
Xie Jinlan only asked in passing, and did not want to take a closer look, so he nodded clearly. His gaze swept over the few people behind Master Chen, and then returned to Master Chen: "You have also worked hard today, hurry up and go back to rest." ”
After a pause, he said again: "Master Chen, in recent days, the Japanese official will temporarily live in the Wangyuan Foreign Mansion, if there is anything important, come to the Foreign Mansion to find the official." ”
A hint of surprise flashed on Master Chen's face, but when he thought of Li Bao'er's case at the beginning, the adult was also temporarily living in Lijia Village, he suddenly understood: "Yes, my lord." ”
Xie Jinlan raised his hand and waved it lightly, signaling a few people to leave first.
Master Chen, Li Zhukuai and others bowed their hands:
"Retire!"
"Retire from your duties!"
When the footsteps of Master Chen and the others gradually faded away, Xie Jinlan slowly walked to the delicate and small wooden bridge above the lotus pond. Then find a place to sit on the guardrail.
Seeing Ruan Yezhen following his appearance step by step, he couldn't help but smile: "Miss Ruan, what are you doing?" Since I have promised to help you, are you still afraid that I will break my promise and become fat? ”
Ruan Yezhen waved her hand again and again: "Naturally not!" I...... I'm because ...... Because ......"
Looking at the embarrassment that flashed on Ruan Yezhen's face, Xie Jinlan had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and suddenly understood her unfinished words. couldn't help but look at her funny:
"Miss Ruan, after those days in Lijia Village, haven't you yet adapted to the night?"
When her mind was exposed, Ruan Yezhen's face turned red, and she looked at Xie Jinlan with some annoyance:
"If I'm not afraid of the dark, why am I so eager for you to send Xiaobai here? Besides, how can things that are naturally feared be overcome so easily? ”
Ruan Yezhen's justified accusation made Xie Jinlan suddenly feel a little unreasonable, and couldn't help touching his nose: "It's mine, it's not, Miss Ruan, don't worry about me." ”
Ruan Yezhen's chin was slightly raised, and then she forgave him with kindness: "This girl doesn't care about villains, so she won't care about you." ”
After a pause, she seemed to remember something, and looked at the person in front of her without saying anything: "Xie Jinlan, you say, is it really important to find out the real culprit for Wang Tianci?" ”
Xie Jinlan straightened his posture slightly, and smiled slightly: "Why did Miss Ruan say this?" ”
Ruan Yezhen analyzed: "You see, that Wang Tianci is a tyrant in Lin'an, and he bullies and bullies the weak on weekdays. As soon as he died, the people would be spared some unwarranted calamities. Isn't that a good thing? ”
