Chapter 8 Qingqing is a money junkie
Madame, as a reserved girl, how could she talk about such a thing as silver?
If you want to say it, you have to go back and say it, how can you mention it in front of outsiders?
"Madame!" Bai Qi stomped his feet and staggered his teeth at Wei Qingqing, "Are we very short of silver?" ”
"We're very short of silver!" Wei Qingqing had already rummaged through her own house before, and came to the conclusion that she was a little poor.
She will take a leave sooner or later, Han Shuo will leave Chengenbo Mansion, what can she do without money?
Wei Qingqing was afraid that Bai Qi would not believe it, so she added seriously, "Even the jewelry is not worth much, we are really poor." ”
"Flutter-" Han Qian on the side couldn't help laughing out loud when he saw Wei Qingqing speaking so sincerely, and then looked at Wei Qingqing with interest, thinking that his second brother and sister seemed to be quite interesting.
He didn't care about his innocence, and he didn't bother to prove his innocence to Han Shuo and the others, but he was a little curious about what Wei Qingqing would do next, and on a whim, he actually bargained with her, "Three hundred taels is too expensive." ”
"Is it expensive?" Wei Qingqing frowned and muttered: "Three hundred taels of silver to solve a mystery case, and return your reputation, where is it expensive?" ”
Bai Qi pouted her face, not wanting to admit that the woman in front of her who fell into the eyes of money was her wife.
"It's notorious, Qingyu isn't worth three hundred taels of silver," Han Qian said seriously, and following Wei Qingqing's example, he stretched out a finger and shook it in front of her, "How about a hundred taels?" ”
"No way!" Before Wei Qingqing could answer, Bai Qi preemptively refused, and swept away his previous embarrassment, indignantly accusing Han Qian of being unkind, "Uncle Qian! You are bullying my wife who has never walked outside, and I don't know the rules of buying and selling things! If you buy something in a shop outside, the price is cut by half is considered to be too much, and you dare to cut off two-thirds of it, and the shopkeeper doesn't take a broom to drive you out! ”
Wei Qingqing suddenly realized, generously praised Bai Qi for doing a good job, and changed the price from the good, "I want to fork ...... ahead"
She paused as she spoke, looked Han Qian up and down with the eyes that examined the goods, and bowed her head slightly after looking at it, "You're right, your reputation is indeed not worth three hundred taels of silver." In this way, the fixed price, two hundred taels of silver, you agree to the deal! ”
Han Qian was speechless for a moment, thinking that he had obviously cut the price, but what was the unhappiness in his heart?
What do you mean by "your reputation is indeed not worth three hundred taels of silver"?
He felt like he was shooting himself in the foot......
"Uncle Qian, can't you even afford two hundred taels of silver?" Although she didn't know why her wife was so short of money, as a qualified maid, she had to work hard to pit the silver for her wife...... No, it's earned!
"You little maid is also very weird, isn't your wife still not allowed to mention silver? It's only a blink of an eye, and you rolled up your sleeves and stepped forward to fight for your wife's silver? Han Qian shook his head and smiled, he didn't care about the hundreds of taels of silver, the bargaining was purely to tease Wei Qingqing, so naturally he wouldn't insist on lowering the price, "That's it, two hundred taels is two hundred taels." ”
Only then did Bai Qi retract his gaze at Han Qian with satisfaction, and muttered in a low voice: "If you don't mention it, you can mention it, no matter how little money you make, wouldn't it be a greater loss?" ”
Wei Qingqing and the three of them had just finished bargaining, and the room was quiet, and Yao slowly woke up.
Seeing this, Wei Qingqing took a step forward, glanced at everyone in the room with a faint gaze, and her tone was casual but revealing strong confidence, "I already know who the real culprit is, and it's not right to let people take the blame indiscriminately, so-do you want to stand up yourself, or let me find you out?" ”
Wei Qingqing used extraordinary means to prove himself decisively and ruthlessly in front of everyone, which somewhat frightened some people, making them subconsciously believe that Wei Qingqing really had a way to find out the real murderer...... Even the real murderer thinks so in his heart.
Seeing that Wei Qingqing's words fell, Young Master An's nurse Yueniang knelt down and confessed, "Yes, it was the slave who accidentally pinched it." An hour before Young Master An fell into the water, the slave maid accompanied him to take a nap, and he fell asleep without paying attention, and he also had a dream......"
Yueniang said that someone shouted at her in her dream to kill, she waved her hands indiscriminately to resist, and without paying attention, she regarded Young Master An as a villain and pinched him twice!
Wei Qingqing was noncommittal to Yueniang's words, and only stepped forward and ordered Yueniang to spread her hands flat, cover her hands on them and compare them, and found that Yueniang's hands were comparable to men's hands, and they were twice as big as her hands!
Wei Qingqing raised Yueniang's big hand so that everyone in the room could see it clearly, "I was negligent in front of me, forgetting that there are women in this world who are born with big hands and feet, comparable to men, so I mistakenly thought that the murderer was a man, and gave the wrong hint to the son." ”
While secretly embarrassed, she pinched the index finger of Yueniang's right hand, and saw that there was a painful look on her face, so she dared to close the coffin, "Yes, the murderer is you." ”
Wei Qingqing naturally wouldn't talk in vain, and after she identified Yueniang, she motioned for everyone to look at Young Master An's neck, "Ordinary people have a lot of strength with their right hand, and they naturally use their right hand when pinching people." Take a closer look, the pinch marks on An'er's neck are two heavy and one light, and the light finger marks are left by the index finger, which proves that the murderer's right index finger is not strong. ”
She said and pointed at Han Qian, "Uncle Qian used his right index finger to pluck the bowstring at the beginning of the fight, which is impossible without a little strength, so I said earlier that he was not the real murderer." On the contrary, it is Yueniang, who carefully protects her right index finger in everything she does......"
Wei Qingqing had already secretly observed everyone in the house, and when she saw that Yueniang deliberately avoided her right index finger no matter what she did, she guessed in her heart that she was the murderer. Now after verifying Yueniang's hand, her inference has been confirmed.
"Well said!" After Wei Qingqing clearly stated her inference, Han Qian couldn't help but high-five her and cheer for her!
After Ling Wanrou on the side learned the truth, her delicate body became more and more shaky, because Yueniang, the nurse, was personally selected by her, "Yueniang, how can you, how can you live up to my trust in you?" Ah Shuo, it's all my fault, I didn't notice how to use people, and I almost hurt An'er......"
Han Shuo hurriedly reassured her, "It's this Diao slave who is too cunning and cunning, how can I blame you?" You are new to the city, and you have to teach An'er and serve me on weekdays, how can you have more energy to deal with these slaves? It's not your fault, don't blame yourself, I don't care if I hurt my body! ”
Wei Qingqing was so disgusted by Han Shuo's meaty words of comfort that she had goosebumps all over her body!
She subconsciously turned her head, but inadvertently met Han Qian's eyes, and found that he was slapping his arm up and down with his hand, and he seemed to be disgusted by Han Shuo.
