Hearing Aunt Lin say this, Xu Feiyan stood up suddenly and asked in surprise, "What?!" What is so expensive? ”

Aunt Lin replied, "I'm also curious, after they left, I went to ask Widow Feng." Widow Feng showed me that it was a lotus flower made of ordinary cloth, sewn on a shoe, and it was worthless. Widow Feng said: In the future, Miss Shangguan will buy a lot of lotus flowers from her, because all of Miss Shangguan's shoes must be sewn with lotus flowers. ”

"What a waste! There is no need to sew anything extra on the shoes, Widow Feng is changing ways to make Liz's money. Big Brother Bai is really, why is he so confused, and he was fooled together. Xu Feiyan was so angry that her voice changed, she hated being taken advantage of by others the most.

"She is a widow and has two children to raise. I guess that Lord Bai deliberately gave her money to earn. ”

"Okay! As the saying goes: emergency is not poor. There are many poor people in the world, can they be relieved?! Liz herself eats and lives for nothing in Baifu, without contributing at all, and always instigating Big Brother Bai to give money to irrelevant outsiders! Last time, it was the same for that Aunt Pan. ”

Xu Feiyan couldn't stay any longer, and then said, "Isn't it just a lotus made of cloth?" I asked Baifu's maid ring to make it, and then sewed it on the shoes for Liz. ”

Xu Feiyan hurried back to Baifu, and as soon as she entered the door, she happened to meet Lizi, and asked, "Cloth Lotus hasn't been bought yet, right?" ”

Liz replied, "I have already bought it, and all the shoes are sewn." Sister Feiyan, do you want it? I'll go to Widow Feng and buy some back. ”

Xu Feiyan asked in a trembling voice, "How much did it cost?" ”

"I gave all the money in my money bag to Widow Feng, I didn't count."

When Xu Feiyan heard this, she became even more angry, her face turned blue and she wanted to have a seizure, but, considering that this was in Baifu, Bai Haohong always protected Lizi, so she endured it.

Lizi didn't know what to do, but asked, "Sister Feiyan, you just came back from Aunt Lin, did Aunt Lin make you angry?" Look, I'm you off like this. ”

Xu Feiyan said loudly in annoyance: "I'm fed up with your anger!" I ask you, what are you crazy about, why do you sew lotus flowers on your shoes? ”

Liz replied disapprehantly, "I think it's pretty good, and besides, I know it's my shoes when I look at them." ”

"You spend money like this, are you worthy of Big Brother Bai?!"

Lizi said lightly: "I also feel sorry for Big Brother Bai, so I decided: After becoming Mrs. Bai in the future, I will serve Big Brother Bai well and give birth to a few more champions to repay him." ”

"You, you ......" Xu Feiyan was so angry that she didn't know what to say, and Liz left humming a little song.

On this day, Bai Haohong was dealing with official business in the head-catching room, and Wang Xi ran in with Du Yiming in a panic. As soon as Du Yiming saw Bai Haohong, he hurriedly said: "Brother Bai, it's not good, the shopkeeper of our health pharmacy has been killed." ”

Wang Xi heard this and interjected: "This kind of case is under the control of Kaifeng Mansion, you should go to Kaifeng Mansion to report the case." ”

Bai Haohong said: "Wang Xi, you may not know that Lord Bao of Kaifeng Mansion is trying the case of Chen Shimei, because the case is serious, and there are too many things that need to be investigated and confirmed, so there is no time to accept other cases, therefore, Lord Bao and our Lord Yu discussed, during this period of time, all the cases that occurred in the capital were accepted by our Dali Temple." ”

After speaking, Bai Haohong stood up, took eight catchers, and rushed to the scene with Du Yiming.

On the way, Bai Haohong asked Du Yiming to introduce the situation, and Du Yiming said: "I went to the pharmacy early today and saw that the door had not yet opened. As soon as I pushed the door, it opened, and without much thought, I went in. When I entered the door, I saw our shopkeeper dead on the ground, and the corpse was terrifying, and even I, a person who studied medicine, was scared enough. You will know when you go to see it, and you don't know who is so cruel and has such a poisonous hand. ”

Du Yiming then analyzed: "Big Brother Bai, I think this is definitely a vendetta!" On the way to report the crime, I have been pondering that recently, our shopkeeper has behaved a little strangely, and he often asks us to go home early to rest, which must be doing something shady. ”

Bai Haohong asked, "Does Shopkeeper Zhang have relatives in the capital?" ”

"His wife is long dead, and he has no children and no daughters. Our pharmacy sells medicine in the front, people live in the backyard, and the shopkeeper Zhang and his little fellow Ah Liu live in the backyard. ”

While talking, everyone came to the health pharmacy, Bai Haohong asked two catchers to stand at the door, blocking the idle people from entering the pharmacy, and he took the rest of the people and pushed the door and walked in. As soon as Bai Haohong saw the corpse, he immediately understood why Du Yiming was frightened, because the face of the dead corpse on the ground was blurred with flesh and blood, and it had been disfigured, its palms and calves had been cut off, and there was a large pool of blood on the ground, as well as some bloody footprints. Bai Haohong looked around the house again and saw that the tables and chairs were neat and intact, and there was no sign of a fight at the scene.

Bai Haohong asked Li Dahai, Wang Xi and others to go to the surrounding residents to learn about the situation, and he came to the backyard. There are three houses in the backyard, and the door of one of them is open, and Bai Haohong decides: go into this room and take a look.

When Bai Haohong walked into the house, he saw that the room was extremely simple, with only a bed and a table. There was a young man sitting in the corner of the wall, dressed in burlap short brown, shrunken into a ball, trembling, this young man was about the same age as Du Yiming, he was timid at first glance, it was estimated that he was Ah Liu.

Bai Haohong walked up to him and said kindly, "You are Ah Liu, right?" I am Du Yiming's eldest brother, surnamed Bai. ”

Ah Liu raised his head, looked at Bai Haohong with frightened eyes, and asked in a trembling voice, "Are you the big brother Bai that Yiming often talks about?" Are you the white master of Dali Temple? ”

Bai Haohong nodded and replied, "Yes." ”

"Our shopkeeper is dead." Ah Liu only said this, and then he burst into tears.

Bai Haohong helped Ah Liu up and let him sit on the bed, and after he calmed down, Bai Haohong then asked, "How did you find the body of the shopkeeper Zhang?" ”

"This morning, I went to open the door as usual, and as soon as I got to the front yard, I saw dead bodies, which was terrifying! As soon as I was scared, I ran back to the house. ”

"When was the last time you saw Shopkeeper?"

"Yesterday, when it was almost evening, Yiming left, and after I and the shopkeeper took turns to eat dinner, we worked together for a while, and then closed the door. I was about to go back to the backyard to rest when I heard a knock on the door and the shopkeeper asked, 'Who?' A man's voice replied, 'Brother.' The shopkeeper told me to go back to the backyard and rest, saying that he would open the door himself, and I went back to my room. ”

"Later, did Shopkeeper Zhang go back to the backyard?"

"Nope. I think I went out with someone who came, and I didn't care. ”

"When did Shopkeeper Zhang come back?"

"I don't know, I should have come back after I fell asleep."

"Did you hear any unusual noises last night?"

"Nope. I've always slept dead. ”

"Has Shopkeeper Zhang offended anyone?"

"I don't know, I don't think so."

"Recently, Shopkeeper Zhang has often taken your vacations, do you know what the reason is?"

"He told me to stay in the backyard and not go to the front yard, so I don't know what the shopkeeper was doing."
