In this way, it means that Zhang is not arrogant and lascivious, but still maintains the habit of working in the farmhouse. She loves cleanliness, does not like enjoyment and luxury, and rejects wealth and the gorgeous life that wealth gives.

At this point, Xu Chu's image and temperament towards the Zhang family have become clearer and clearer.

The group walked to the place where the crime occurred, and at this time the room where the crime occurred was still closed, and although there was no one guarding the door, there were seals unique to the government attached to them. It seems that there has been no damage.

"A few officials, this is where the accident happened to the lady. Before, Lord Huang ordered that no one was allowed to enter or leave, and the old man was in a bad mood, but no one dared to come to find taboos. ”

Along the way, Steward Yu also secretly looked at the two face-stricken-faced masters, but found that the two had a good bearing, and they were extremely conspicuous among the officials, as if they stood out from the crowd. Naturally, he became more and more apprehensive about coping.

"It's very good, and I bother the housekeeper to inform the Yu family to gather outside the courtyard later, we have something to ask."

Butler Yu saw that these two were also easy to talk to, and he didn't mean to make things difficult, so he secretly breathed a sigh of relief and responded again and again.

After the housekeeper Yu retreated and the official guarded the door, Xu Chu and Xiao Qinglang stepped into the wing. Although it is a side room, it is also fully equipped, and there is a door and window between the hall and the inner room. It's just that because of the perennial Buddha burning incense, the house exudes a strong sandalwood fragrance.

Xiao Qinglang and Xu Chu looked around and didn't find anything inappropriate. After Wei Guang searched with the catcher, it was confirmed that there was no such thing as a secret passage or a secret door. In this way, the two began to look at the signs of the scene.

The hall is not spacious, and the table and coffee table are placed in the center of the room and by the window. Two steps to the left of the coffee table is where the vase was broken and Zhang's body was located.

At present, except for the fragments on Zhang's body, they are kept by the government, and the rest are still scattered all over the hall.

Xu Chu first went to the coffee table and took a closer look, and then pushed open the window and groped for a while. After that, he walked towards the place where Zhang fell to the ground.

Before the government conducts an autopsy, it usually draws the corpse to the ground with white ash and then records it. So now Xu Chu and Xiao Qinglang can clearly see the traces, and then speculate on the circumstances of the day.

"Childe, do you think the scene is strange?" Xu Chuxian did not look for the porcelain pieces and other objects left behind, but first squatted down and touched the ground with his hands. After a while, when he looked up, he saw Xiao Qinglang raising his eyebrows slightly, as if he had an epiphany, and couldn't help asking.

"Since Xiao Chu found out, why do you want to ask me?" Xiao Qinglang said helplessly, "Although the Yu family is a businessman, it can't be regarded as having any behind-the-scenes background. Therefore, if many of the local hardwoods used in the home were really watered by boiling water here, then not to mention where the water came from, just that the floor would never be so dry. ”

"Besides, she had a serious wound in the chest before she died, and there would have been bleeding. But the cracks in the floor were empty, and there was no sign of a dull red sign of drying. ”

As the words fell, the two of them turned their eyes to the inner room at the same time. If the Zhang family was still closed that day, then at the beginning of the case, in addition to the hall, there would be only the inner room.

Without hesitation, the two of them got up and went to the inner room.

Compared with the hall, which is slightly brighter and colder, the interior decoration makes people feel particularly oppressive, but also warmer.

The heavy curtains hung down, and even in broad daylight, the room was extremely dark. Further forward against the wall is the stepping bed, on which a simple layer of bedding and pillows are placed. Three steps at the end of the bed, is the statue of the Buddha shrine, it can be seen that no one has been here since the accident, the table, chair and the Buddha shrine have long been covered with a thin layer of ash, obviously no one has come to clean for many days.

Xu Chu glanced at the furnishings in the room, and first saw the charcoal fire that had long been extinguished, and there was an empty basket on the side of the brazier, which should be used to hold silver charcoal. And near the charcoal brazier, there is a small table and three teacups.

She took a few steps forward and reached out to take the teacup, but saw that there was still tea in it that had not dried up. It's a pity that someone seems to have been cleaned up in a hurry, and I can't see the tea that should have been.

"It is Songyang silver monkey tea, the soup is tender and green, and the fragrance lasts for a long time. This tea is a specialty of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and is not well known to the world. Xiao Qinglang's arm swept in front of Xu Chu, and then carefully gathered the small tea soup into one cup. After a while, I saw that a small wave of soup had gathered at the bottom of the white porcelain cup, and the color and luster became more and more obvious against the backdrop of the white porcelain.

Hearing this, Xu Chu's brows stretched slightly.

It shows that there is a custom of containing copper coins in the mouth in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and then there is tea produced by Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and there can never be such a coincidence in the world.

Jiangsu, Zhejiang...... In the end, what does the murderer have to do with Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and how can he act easily. Although there is no one to serve in the main courtyard, it is not easy to go around the front yard of the house and go straight here.

After making a new discovery, Xu Chu didn't dare to be too excited, and carefully recorded the clues in the book, and then investigated other places again.

The inner room is not very large, and further on, you can see that there are neatly arranged objects on the dresser. The wooden comb jade earrings are also neatly placed in the fragrant wood makeup box, and the purse embroidery is placed in turn. It was as if it had been specially cleaned up, and then looked at the left and right of the Buddhist shrine, and the incense and candles were also placed very properly.

At first glance, there really isn't anything suspicious. But both of them knew that there was something missing in this room, and it was an extremely crucial object in the case.

There were doubts in their hearts, but the two of them did not entangle for long.

Immediately, she and Xiao Qinglang looked at the stepping bed. When they saw clearly the messy sheet and the wrinkled satin quilt under the neatly folded futon, both of them frowned slightly.

It was obviously broad daylight when Zhang's accident happened, but why were there so many folds in the sheets on the bed?

"The quilt against the wall......" Xiao Qinglang took two steps forward and pulled the neatly folded quilt away, and in an instant, a vague sandalwood fragrance mixed with the smell of blood dispersed. And there are faint mottled mildew on the milky white curtains.

Xu Chu's expression changed, he took out the white handkerchief from his sleeve, and slammed forward to put his hand into the crack of the bed against the wall. After a while, I took it out, but I saw that on the white and immaculate white handkerchief, some dried rust mottled dirt appeared.

"It's blood, and ...... Mud shavings. Xiao Qinglang slowly twisted the small piece of soil, "The mixture of humus soil, peat soil and coarse sand is used to raise begonia flowers." ”

Speaking of this, Xu Chu had already bent down and lifted the sheets hanging from the bed to check it, and sure enough, he saw a pile of black dirt against the wall.

"I didn't expect it to be like this!" Thinking of the truth that might appear, Xu Chu not only felt a chill behind him. Could it be that she was wrong? But what kind of hatred can be more important than life?

If that's what she wiped, then why?

All of a sudden, countless possibilities flashed through her mind.

Xiao Qinglang saw that the handkerchief in Xu Chu's hand was very familiar, and her expression was not embarrassed or evasive, and her heart became more and more comfortable. In the solemn and silent face just now, there was also a bit of joy and relaxation.

But when he saw the dirt under the bed, and saw Xu Chuyin's face pale when he saw the handkerchief in his hand, his expression couldn't help but be cold.

If the Zhang family was killed on the bed, then who else could fold the bedding quietly and handle everything without panic? Also, where did the tea leaves in the teacup go? Since Su Ri can drink tea, why do you only see tea cups but no tea leaves in the house?

Furthermore, did the murderer premeditate, not from the kitchen to ask for boiling water, but to boil hot water on top of the charcoal fire in the inner room?

The water that can be used to make tea will inevitably burn the wound, and then make the skin and flesh roll without blood.

"The flower pots that were removed from the house, and ...... Xiao Cui ......" Xu Chu's eyes were heavy, and he pursed his lips and said. "But what motives does she have?"

In addition to the person's confession, motive and evidence are also needed to deduce the case. But now, everything is just their speculation, and there is no clear evidence. Even the motive is only speculation related to Zhang's abortion eight years ago, but if this is the case, what does it have to do with Xiaocui?

Towards noon, the two men surveyed the chamber and wrote down each other's suspicions. Just as he was about to send someone to find the housekeeper, he saw that he had come straight to ask for an order, saying that he had gathered all the people in the house.

Except for the people who had alibi evidence at the time, as well as several extremely beautiful aunts in the backyard, Xu Chu directly let the rest of the people disperse. Sure enough, now they only have Xiaocui, the housekeeper and six enchanting aunts who have their own spring and autumn seasons.

To be honest, before he saw him, Xu Chu really didn't expect Yu Fugui to have a six-room concubine room at home. Of course, the powder he raised in the Goolan Courtyard didn't count. Now that she sees it, she can't help but be speechless, she is really beautiful, but she doesn't know if it is the most difficult to accept the grace of beauty.

These people all hung their heads and wiped their tears, their expressions were sad, and there were also two pale faces who were silent but still had tears. If people who don't know the inside of the family see it, I'm afraid they will feel more about the wealth and blessing, it is really a wife and concubine, and the concubine will be so sad after the death of the main house.

However, Xu Chu and Xiao Qinglang had already studied the files at home, and now when they saw a group of warblers and Yanyan pretending to be, they would only feel that these people were playing a lot.

"Since everyone is hurt for Madame, you also want the government to solve the case as soon as possible in order to comfort her in the spirit of heaven. In this way, I will also ask bluntly, if there is any offense, please don't be surprised. Xu Chu suppressed the impatience in his heart, and then got straight to the point, "Have you ever crossed paths with your wife on weekdays?" Or do you think there has been an abnormality in the main hospital? ”

Where there are so-called people, there are rivers and lakes, especially the backyard of the rich with many men and women. For the sake of status and luxury life, it will naturally be the norm for a group of idle women to fight/favor/frame.

What's more, the Yu family has no heirs, and it is uncertain who will kill the deer.
