101. a single seedling
"It's easy to say," Xie Xuan saw that Liu Siyun was not very happy because she didn't guess correctly, so she explained with a smile:
"When we first came, we screened out Sun Tie, as well as Li Da and Li Er, these people are not short, if they beat my grandfather with that thick stick, they should be around the top of their heads. My grandfather's wound was in the back of the head, and it must have been caused by a shorter man. So, I guess none of these people are murderers. Only Zhang Heizi was shorter, and he was one of the three people who found my grandfather, and I began to suspect that it was him. “
"Hmm--" A few whimperes came, and everyone followed the sound to look, it turned out to be Li Da Li Er, who was escorted back, heard Xie Xuan's voice, couldn't help but be happy and aggrieved, and blinked desperately, signaling the healthy servants next to them to untie them.
Xie Xuan didn't see it, and wanted them to suffer a little more.
"Later, when I asked about the last table, Uncle Lin couldn't wait to say that Li Da and Li Er had been away from the table for a long time, and he had some doubts in his heart."
Xie Xuan glanced at Lin Hai, who was pale, and continued: "After all, everyone knows that Li Da and Li Er are stingy and hold grudges, even if they suffer a loss at noon, everyone is just talking behind their backs, but no one deliberately provokes in front of them. And Uncle Lin has always been steady, but this time he took the initiative to say that they left the table, and deliberately said that they had been away for a long time, and even did not care that they would offend them. This behavior is a bit unusual. “
"I don't think Uncle Lin is short, and Uncle Lin is usually a person, so it's unlikely that he will be him. I guess he did it to protect someone......"
As he spoke, Xie Xuan looked at Lin Chun.
Lin Chun is 16 years old today, not yet an adult, and his peasant family lacks food and clothing, and he is generally malnourished and a little thin.
At the beginning, it was also because he was thin and small, Lin Hai proposed that only half of his salary should be counted, and this time the work should only be used for experience.
"And how did you know he was coming to the Basement?" Liu Siyun was still a little puzzled.
"Silly sister," Liu Sinian didn't know how many times she said she was stupid today, "This Lin Chun returned to the table immediately after beating the Xie family's grandfather, and he didn't even arouse the ideas of others, and the time it took must be very short, so the money bag he grabbed must not be hidden far away, and so many people watched when he went back, and the money bag was big, so he couldn't take it back to attract attention." So I can only hide nearby! “
Fu Junzhi smiled and continued: "Xuanxuan deliberately paid the completion money immediately and dismissed the workers to leave, leaving him with little time." After the workers left, the Xie family would probably plant vegetables in the basement the next day, and they would find the money bags hidden inside, so they could only take advantage of the time when the workers packed their luggage after we all left, and came out to get back the money bags that had been hidden. “
Fu Junzhi looked at Xie Xuan, his eyes moved slightly: "Xuanxuan is deliberately creating an opportunity for him to come back and get the money, if he misses this opportunity, his chances of getting the money will be even slimmer." And he would never have thought that this was a trap set for him in advance. “
Xie Xuan was looked at by Fu Junzhi with this kind of gaze, and couldn't help but turn his head away, avoiding his gaze.
Xie Xuan asked Lin Hai: "Uncle Lin, I don't think you are like a greedy person, why don't you stop him?" “
Lin Hai Tieqing left two lines of tears on his face, and said with a sad smile: "It's late!" By the time I found out, he had already done something like this...... What else can I do? Did you watch him being sent to the county office? fell into a reputation for murder for money, and the rest of his life was ruined......"
Murder for money, even if it is an attempt, is not the lightest hanging, but exile.
"Second brother--" With a sad cry, Lin stumbled over, looked at her second brother in disbelief, and looked at Lin Chun who was kneeling on the ground with his head bowed, and suddenly walked to Lin Chun's side and slapped him a few times according to Lin Chun.
"I've treated you poorly on weekdays? Are you doing this to me? When you did this, did you think that your aunt and I would be at your mother-in-law's house in the future? Lin slapped him twice with hatred, "My father-in-law is not kind to you, he knows that you can't do any work, but he still lets you take half of the salary, how can you have such a wolf-hearted mind?" My Lin family has always been sitting up straight, how can I give birth to such a bad seed as you! “
Lin Hai sat on the ground, and let his sister beat Lin Chun, but he just held his head and didn't speak.
Lin Shan Lin Zhu's father and son were also silent, when Lin Hai asked them to help conceal Lin Chun's departure, they had already guessed, and now that the matter was revealed, it was not only Lin Chun Lin Hai's face that was lost, but also the face of him, the boss of the Lin family.
I saw that the workers were talking a lot, and they had everything to say:
"Messing around, it's still a house thief......"
"That's not related to the Xie family, and the daughter-in-law's mother's family is not the Xie family's family......"
"This time, the daughter-in-law is going to be gone, maybe she will have to leave......"
"I don't know how this Lin Chun should be sentenced, the crime of murder for money is not light, maybe it will be a hanging......"
"Maybe, the Xie family has always been benevolent, didn't they spare Wu Qingxi last time?"
"Wu Qingxi stole things, and he didn't hurt anyone's life, this time he almost died......"
……
The sound of discussion came into the ears of the Lin family, making Lin Hai's heart sink more and more, looking at his son who was constantly trembling with fright, Lin Hai gritted his teeth, came to Xie Pingtian, and knelt down upright.
"Brother-in-law, it was I who taught my son no way to ask him to do such a conscience-losing thing, everything is my fault! If you have resentment or hatred, it's all out of me! Two lines of tears flowed from Lin Hai's rough and dark face, "If you kill me today, I won't say a word!" I only beg you, spare Chun'er's life, he is still young, he is only sixteen, he will never dare to ...... in the future"
Lin Shan and Lin Zhu also came to the Xie family, knelt down straight, and kept kowtowing.
Seeing the foreheads of several members of the Lin family slamming on the ground, Xie Xuan didn't have much joy in his heart, no matter what, going around and around, the murderer he caught turned out to be his own relative, and the Xie family was also embarrassed.
What's more, the Lin family is sandwiched between the two families of his mother-in-law's family, how will the Lin family be a person in the future?
Lin Chun was slapped several times by Lin, his face was swollen, he finally understood what mistake he had made at this time, and his whole body trembled with fright, seeing that his father and eldest brother were interceding for him, he also hurriedly buckled his head on the ground and begged:
"Aunt, I was wrong! I just saw the money and opened my eyes, and I didn't want to kill Grandpa Xie! I was still young, I had never seen the world, and when I saw the bag of silver, I was fascinated...... I was confused for a while, begging my aunt to help me......"
Lin saw that Lin Chun's hands were tied behind his back, he fell to the ground and couldn't get up, his thin body was trembling on the ground, he was really a little pitiful, and he couldn't get off for a while.
Looking at her husband, she saw Xie Pingtian frowning, his eyes full of disappointment. Uncle Xie Ping'an looked at Lin Shan and Lin Hai, his face was full of anger, and he couldn't wait to go up and fight.
Even Hui Niang and Qiu Niang also looked at the Lin family with strained faces.
Lin suddenly panicked in her heart, she came to Xie Pingtian, knelt on the ground, and cried and said: "Pingtian, my nephew did this kind of thing, so that Gonggong almost lost his life, and now he is still lying in the hospital, this blames me!" If it hadn't been for my mother's family to come to work in the Zhuangzi, this would not have happened, and my father-in-law would not have been injured......" As she spoke, she closed her eyes and said ruthlessly:
"Hirata, I am also a member of the Lin family, and I am also responsible for my nephew to do such things...... You divorce me, I just ask you to spare Tsubaki's life, he is the only seedling of my second brother......"
