Chapter 114: Motivation
Aunt Ha twisted her body uneasily and said, "I asked her to drink water, but she said that the water was too cold and she didn't drink ......it."
Second Aunt Su shouted at Qingzhi, "Look! And said that you didn't poison it! Then why don't you dare to drink water? ”
Everyone present supported their foreheads: Second Aunt Su, there is no chance to poison at this time.
No one paid attention to her.
Aunt Ha continued: "I drank a few sips of water by myself, found a place where the sun shined and sat down to eat dry food, Qingzhi also sat next to me to eat snacks, she brought a lot of rose shortbread, and gave me a few, the rose marinade, it is indeed very sticky, but it is delicious, only bought in Lishan Town......"
The head man reminded: "Just get to the point." ”
"Oops! Talk about the point. Qingzhi had a lot of brine on his fingers, and said that he was going to wash his hands, so he went to the stream to wash his hands, and after washing his hands, we came back. ”
Meglo said, "So you didn't see Miss Qingzhi poisoned?" ”
"Nope!" Aunt Ha shook her head resolutely.
Su Lan smiled slightly and said, "Song Qingzhi is treacherous, how can he let Aunt Ha see if he poisons him?" She deliberately turned around at that time, with her back to Aunt Ha, I was on the glacier and could see it clearly. ”
Ritsu Zichuan coldly took Qingzhi's hand and walked out, Second Aunt Su'Hey! With a sound, he rushed to block it and said, "You two wicked people! That's it?! The gentleman in the town said that this poisonous water is estimated to be clean after the New Year, so you follow us to the county government to reason! Ruthless! Heart black! "I couldn't stop scolding.
When Su Lan heard the county office, she shrank a little, and Meglo glanced at her strangely.
Qingzhi saw that Ritsu Zichuan looked like he was going to kill someone, and thought of his most taboo slander and frame-up, and comforted him in a low voice: "It's okay, don't get angry, go to the county government to find out what's going on." ”
After she crossed over, she still had a certain degree of confidence in the social system of the Great Zhou, the previous Wei County Order was quickly overthrown, and the speed of Zizhou City's application for a wine shop was also very fast and professional, and the officials of Ketuo Town would not be too bad to think about, it would be good to go to the county office!
I just hope that I won't find out Ritsu Zichuan's life experience......
Ritsu Zichuan stopped when he heard this, nodded to Qingzhi, and then looked at Su Lan coldly.
Su Lan avoided his gaze, and her body couldn't help but tremble slightly.
Aunt Ha has always been a little afraid of the headman, but when it comes to Qingzhi, she hesitated for a moment and still said: "Headman, I have been with Qingzhi for so long, and she is not such a person if she dares to pack a ticket." She was bent on buying our herdsmen's wool to make money, so what good would it do her to poison the water? ”
Second Aunt Su snorted: "On the surface, she said that she wanted us to make money, but in her heart she must be afraid that we will all make wool, and her wool will not be sold!" ”
Aunt Ha was about to say that Qingzhi has been lending us a textile machine, how can she have such selfishness? Meglo frowned: "Auntie, don't say a word, I think there is still something inside to this matter." Father, what do you think? ”
After all, except for Su Lan's testimony, there is no other evidence that Song Qingzhi was poisoned, and Meglo noticed that Su Lan's behavior was different from usual, and she was a little suspicious.
But...... Qingzhi has no motive to poison, but Su Lan has no motive to frame Qingzhi.
The head man stared at Su Lan for a long time, and then said to everyone: "Send the cousins of the law family back first, and don't let them leave Ketuo Mountain until the matter is clarified." ”
Second Aunt Su was anxious: "Such a big thing! Just let them go?! Don't report to the official?! ”
The head man said lightly: "Find out who poisoned and talk about the report to the official." ”
Su Lan lowered her head again.
Ritsu Zichuan pulled Song Qingzhi and went coldly.
The two were still riding together, and Song Qingzhi sighed: "It's really unlucky!" When encountering this kind of thing, the first reaction of the pastoral team must be to suspect outsiders, which is understandable, and it is just a matter of slowly finding out. But what does Su Lan mean by directly giving false testimony to frame me like that?! ”
"Have you been in contact with her lately?"
Qingzhi hesitated for a moment, told Su Lan about the entanglement between Meglo that night, and mentioned Su Lan a little bit about asking herself not to pester Meglo and other things.
Although she couldn't see Ritsukogawa's face, she could feel a chill emanating from behind her.
"You're interested in Meglo?"
"Huh? No, I don't. "I don't like the appearance and style of that kind of decent martial arts brother.
"But Su Lan thinks you have."
Song Qingzhi straightened up all of a sudden, and a flash of inspiration: "Yes!" She thought she liked her cousin, and she poisoned me and slandered me to get me out of the herd! It's so vicious! ”
Ritsu Zichuan didn't have a sense of joy at all to solve the case, and asked coldly, "You and Meglo often see each other when I'm not at home?" ”
Well? I just discovered Su Lan's motives! Where is your focus?!
"Ritsu Zichuan, Su Lan is very suspicious! Let's go back and tell the headman! ”
"You haven't answered my question yet."
"Huh? Oh, I'm not at home and I often meet with Meglo, and for a while he comes every day, and Aunt Ha cooks a big pot of rice for everyone to eat together, and often other ladies come together. Later, I annoyed Su Lan and doubted me, so I didn't allow him to come to my house again. ”
"Qingzhi, you should have told me these things at the time."
“…… These things don't matter, and besides, I talk about eating together every day, but you didn't pay attention to it, right?! Feed! Let's go back and tell the leader Su Lan and Meglo about it! ”
"Go home for dinner first, they may not have no suspicion of Su Lan, this matter is not in a hurry."
Song Qingzhi noticed that the sun was turning west, and it was already dinner time, thinking of Lu Zichuan's various delicate living habits, he had to be convinced.
"Okay...... Since you're hungry, let's go home and eat first. ”
After eating, the donkey team came to the mountain with a large bucket full of water early the next morning, and Ritsukogawa bought a whole bucket back with pride, and Qingzhi said worriedly: "I said it first, and I will pay for it next time, the water is too expensive, and it is used quickly, so I can't just let you out." ”
Ritsukogawa poured the water from the bucket into the water tank and ignored her, still with the same expression of 'talking about money is like talking dirty'.
Song Qingzhi was speechless, and could only comfort himself that although the water in the pond was not drinkable, it was still okay to take a bath and wash clothes, and no matter how expensive the water was, he couldn't drink much.
After no longer drinking from the local water source, Ritsukogawa recovered and drove the sheep up the mountain, and although he was only tending the sheep for the sake of concealment, he also managed the sheep like a real shepherd.
Qingzhi cleaned up the house, and was thinking about telling Aunt Ha about Su Lan first, and the public opinion was building, but the people from the Su family came first, and it was Qingzhi's second aunt who didn't like it the most.
She sat down with a straight face when she entered the door, and saw that the water tank of Qingzhi's house was full of water, and there was a large bucket of water used by the donkey team next to it, so she immediately guessed what was going on, and snorted coldly: "No wonder you want to poison it, it turns out that you have money and no fear!" ”
"Don't spray people with blood, I can't tell who poisoned them! Would you like to ask your eldest daughter if she knows anything inside? ”
"Lan'er? My Su Lan works all day, and she has to take care of her younger siblings when she goes home! You said I could, don't talk about her if it's okay! Second Aunt Su blushed, as if she really cared.
Qingzhi was a little surprised: This Second Aunt Su never cared about her three children, so she still cared about her daughter in her heart?
Then why don't you give them food?!
