Chapter 261: Dumplings (6)

"This Yun Pian fell to his death on the spot?"

Xing Ruyi asked curiously, but his eyes glanced at the female corpse on the ground. Because she didn't feel the breath of a ghost, she didn't bother to use ghost magic to investigate, and only recalled it slightly, feeling that this eldest lady of the Yun family didn't look like she fell to death.

"It's not! The attic of the Yun family is not too high, and there are some maids and servants walking downstairs, so when they fell, they were only slightly injured. Such a big thing happened, even if the Yun family wanted to hide it, the Ma family might not be willing to calculate it, and it soon spread to the government office, and it was the county magistrate from the paper shop who took over the case at that time.

After bringing Yun Pianpian to the mansion, she didn't waste any words, she said it all, and even the bones of the maid were found somewhere in the back garden. The context of the case was clear, and the main culprit pleaded guilty on the spot, so the sentence was quickly handed down. ”

"What was the verdict?"

"The Autumn Queen asks for a cut! But it didn't wait until the autumn. The day after the verdict was announced, the Yun family sent someone to deliver something to the eldest lady. After that person, the eldest lady of the Yun family committed suicide in prison! ”

"Take poison or hit the wall?"

Xing Ruyi thought about it, most of the women's prisons in this county government were narrow and low, and many female prisoners were usually held in one place. But judging from the security situation of the paper shop and the family background of the eldest lady of the Yun family, it is very likely that the county magistrate will give her a single room, and someone will visit the prison before she dies, so as not to discharge the Yun family's reputation for the sake of her own reputation, let people send poison to this eldest lady.

"Neither!" Chang Tai shook his head: "The eldest lady of the Yun family committed suicide, using her own clothes." ”

"You can't strangle yourself to death, right?"

Li Mao thought of the strange situation when he saw the eldest lady of the Yun family last night.

"Yes! This Yun family's eldest lady did something quite strange, she actually tied her clothes to the prison door, and then tied her sleeves into knots and hanged herself. Because the cell door was not high, Miss Yun's posture at that time was also very strange, and even the work of going to investigate was worried. In the end, it was the county commander who sent someone to summon someone from the Yun family to help the eldest lady collect the corpse. Oh, by the way, on the day the eldest lady of the Yun family was sent out of the mansion, the Ma family also sent someone over, probably to see if this eldest lady Yun was really dead or fake, and there was a commotion at the gate of the county government for a while. ”

"The result?"

"The eldest lady of the Yun family is naturally dead, otherwise how can she be carried out of the death row of the county government." Chang Tai said, and also glanced at the body of the eldest lady of the Yun family. Although the things she did when she was alive are difficult to sympathize, the fact that her body is still tossed like this after death also makes people feel a little unbearable.

"This official is right, our young lady is indeed dead."

Not long after Chang Tai finished speaking, another voice came from the crowd. Xing Ruyi looked carefully, it was the young woman who recognized Xing Ruyi earlier.

"The little woman's maiden name is Yuan, and her husband's surname is Liu, and she lives in this village. It was two years ago that I entered the Yun family through the employment of the Yun Mansion, and I did some rough work on weekdays, and some things that the eldest lady did not use are also pulp washed by us, so when I was in the Yun family, I also met with this eldest lady a few times.

The Yun family is such a young lady, the one lying on the ground in front of her, with small characters, I heard that she also has a big name given by her husband, but the people of the Yun family are not often called, and those of us who are domestic servants are even more unclear. I only heard from the people of the Yun family that this eldest lady had an excellent temperament, if it weren't for this, it would not have been possible for the Ma family to be favored and selected as the future daughter-in-law. You must know that the master of the Ma family is a big official in the gods.

But since this old man Yun continued the strings, this eldest lady's temperament has become more and more strange, first closed for a few months, and then although she came out, she didn't say a word, and it lasted for a year before it was normal. Although it looks normal on the surface, I heard the maid in the yard of the eldest lady say that this eldest lady is not the same as before. ”

"What's different?"

"I can't say the specifics, anyway, the maid in the courtyard said that the eldest lady has become very weird, for example, she used to like to eat light food, but now she likes to eat salty, and the taste is heavy, she used to like to wear plain clothes, and now she likes to wear delicate clothes, and she has a good temper, even if someone makes a mistake, she just whispers a few words, but now she scolds from time to time."

"It's nothing! His father suddenly found a stepmother for himself to come back, and his grace was halved at once, not to mention, and even he paid less attention to himself, as the eldest lady, it was inevitable that he would have some temperament. As for the taste, the color of the clothes, etc., as I get older, it will also change. Like me, I used to like to wear dark clothes, but now, I like this kind of bleaching and shiny, making myself look like a little fairy. ”

Xing Ruyi said, pulling his clothes. Before traveling to the Tang Dynasty, she was an out-and-out housemaid and lazy girl, and most of the clothes she bought on weekdays were black, white and gray, not to mention any matching and aesthetics. After arriving in the Tang Dynasty, she was unfamiliar with life, she didn't have any silver on her, and she couldn't buy online, and she relied on foxes to buy clothes and jewelry for her. According to her usual lazy character, she naturally wears whatever the fox buys.

Later, she opened a rouge shop, and she was familiar with the streets and shops in Luoyang, but she was also used to the dressing style that the fox cultivated for her. There is also the most critical point, that is, whether it is the person who came to the shop to buy rouge, or Li Mao and Aunt Lu, who later walked into the rouge shop one after another and became a family with her, they would praise her for wearing so good-looking. The people who come to buy rouge must have some small compliments and flattering things behind their compliments, hoping that when she is happy, she can sell the rouge gouache cheaper and charge them less silver. As for Li Mao and Aunt Lu, maybe she simply thinks she really looks good, or maybe she "thinks her children look good no matter how they dress", in short, after these days, her aesthetics seem to have really improved, and she is more confident in dressing up.

The young woman looked enviously at the clothes on Ruyi's body, whether it was workmanship, texture, or embroidery, they were all first-class and good, and naturally they looked good no matter how they were worn.

Xing Ruyi saw the envy in her eyes, glanced at the curve of her figure, and asked Li Mao to take a coat from the carriage: "This dress was made when I was about to leave the city, although it is not the handiwork of Jinxiufang, but it is not much worse." It's just that I've lost weight in recent days, and this dress doesn't fit well, if you don't dislike it, sister, you might as well take it and put it on casually. Also, I haven't put it on before, I only tried it once, and it's ninety percent new. ”

"Oops, that's embarrassing!" As she spoke, the young woman hurriedly took the dress, and then put it on herself happily, and bumped the man next to her with her shoulder, and asked, "Is it pretty?" ”

The man glanced at Xing Ruyi unnaturally, lowered his head and said, "Good-looking!" ”

The young woman rejoiced: "This is my man!" Even the farmer who farmed in the village didn't understand how good the clothes were. Thank you, girl! Thank you, girl! ”

"In addition to the change in her temperament, tastes, and dressing style, is there anything else this Yun family lady has?" It's almost time for the punishment to be an opinion, and he continues to ask.

"Nothing else." The young woman thought and shook her head: "Usually, the eldest lady stays in her own yard, and she doesn't often come out and walk around, except for the days when Ma Gongzi came. ”

"Do you know about the horse boy and the maid?"

"We don't know the specifics, after all, they are just rough subordinates, and they are still a little different from those in the Yun family's inner house. But when I'm free, I still hear some gossip. ”

The young woman said, lowering her voice: "Actually, the reason why Ma Gongzi stayed in the Yun family was not because the Yun family kept him, let alone because Master Yun wanted him to get along with the eldest lady before they got married, but because Ma Gongzi asked for it. This matter was told by a mother-in-law in the inner house, and she said that Ma Gongzi had long heard that the eldest lady was different from the past, and often beat and scolded the maid, so she continued to propose her relatives and wanted to stay and check it out for herself.

It is said that one night, the eldest lady scolded a maid as usual, and happened to be met by Ma Gongzi who came out to see the moon. Girl, think about it, this eldest lady who is still quiet and gentle during the day has become a wicked woman who beats the maid at will with a bamboo cane at night.

Ma Gongzi was stunned at that time! The whole person stood in the courtyard, watching the eldest lady come back to her senses.

The maid who was beaten that night was none other than the one next to the eldest lady. I can't tell what kind of psychology this maid was at that time, but when she saw Ma Gongzi, she gritted her teeth and turned around and pounced on Ma Gongzi for help. Don't say it, this maid is also delicate and smart, coupled with the moonlight at that time, and a pair of teary eyes, this Ma Gongzi softened his heart at that time, and without looking at the eldest lady again, he picked up the maid and took it back to his yard.

The maid did not return overnight, and it was not until noon on the second day that she was sent back by Ma Gongzi with her little hand with her head down. Even if others don't talk about what is going on here, we can't guess anything. It must have been this maid who climbed onto the bed of the young lady and robbed the eldest lady's fiancΓ© with her pitiful strength.

If you want me to say, this eldest lady was also forced by these two people to get angry, and as for the maid who was chopped into dumpling filling, she also deserved it. Who called her a maid, she didn't keep her duty, she just thought about hooking up with her master, and she was hooking up with Miss's fiancΓ© under the nose of her own young lady, and she didn't chop her. ”

The young woman spoke, spitting on the ground, with the intention of holding grievances for the eldest lady of the Yun family.

"In this way, the reason why this eldest lady of the Yun family did such a cruel thing is really for a reason."

"Isn't that right? It's just that this eldest lady doesn't think through it, isn't she just a maid? When she becomes the housewife of the Ma family, can she still clean up a little concubine? The young woman said, pouting.

Xing Ruyi smiled, stretched out his hand, and gave the other party a thumbs up. "Eldest sister, you are an understanding person. Indeed, although Miss Yun's approach is resentful, it is too worthless. ”

"Not really! This good and dignified Miss Yun lost her life because of these two people. The young woman sighed and glanced at Miss Yun's corpse: "You said that this person is dead, he is gone, and he is so miserable, so pitiful, the people of the Ma family still don't believe it, and they have to invite someone to take a closer look, and the one who invited is still a man, and he is stunned to check a big girl who has not yet left the pavilion inside and out." ”

"What did you say, the Ma family invited someone else to conduct an autopsy"

"What kind of autopsy? The old man in the county yamen said that the eldest lady had died, but the people of the Ma family did not follow it, and they were stunned to find a disciple to humiliate the young lady. However, the people of the Ma family did not get any good fruits, and someone jumped into the well that night! ”

"Jumping into a well?" Xing Ruyi's gaze involuntarily fell on the ancient well.
