Chapter Ninety-Four: The Kui Family

Hua Yan snorted vigorously with an intoxicated expression, and then said to me sitting across from me, "Honey, do you know why I love this?" ”

I glared and shook my head.

"Because the first time you cooked for me, it was tomato and egg noodles!"

It dawned on me that when I picked her up from the hospital, I was at home to marinate her with scrambled eggs with tomatoes and order her noodles. At that time, she made more than ten bowls at once, but she didn't expect the taste to leave such a good impression on her.

I don't know why, but I was suddenly a little moved.

Hua Hu was already holding the enamel basin with both hands, she leaned her mouth over, only to hear a sound of "coo-dong-coo-dong", and it didn't take long for the entire enamel basin to see the bottom.

"Where did she put all these things...... Lin Ying praised sincerely.

Shi Chong and the male policemen were very excited.

"Teacher Shen, you are too good! can eat and solve crimes, it's simply our idol! They coaxed.

Hua Hu drank the last sip of soup in the basin and breathed a sigh of satisfaction.

"Alright, let's get here today." She said.

"Hey! Thank you for being kind to the little woman and knowing to give me food money! Lin Ying went over and helped her stand up with relief, "The people from the Kui family just came over, and they are waiting for us to understand the situation!" ”

......

The original owner of the old house of the Kui family was named Kui Shengchuan, Kui Shengchuan's wife died early, leaving him a pair of twin daughters Kui Yanxin and Kui Yanyun, when the two children were seven years old, Kui Yanyun went out to play and accidentally fell into the river and drowned, leaving the eldest Kui Yanxin alone.

When Kui Yanxin grew up in his twenties, he was stimulated for some reason, and began to become crazy, wandering around, and then disappeared. Kui Shengchuan spent his old age alone and died five years ago.

Kui Shengchuan has no siblings, only a distant cousin, whose son is named Kui Yanxiao, who teaches at the experimental middle school in Jiangyi District. This time, the person Lin Ying came to ask was Kui Yanxiao.

Kui Yanxiao is in his forties, but his ears and temples are gray, and he looks much older than his actual age. He was of medium build, with a fleshy face, and he was smiling all the time when he saw us.

Lin Ying personally got up and poured him a cup of tea, and began to ask him if he knew about the authenticity of the Kui Mansion.

"I really don't know this, I think Ha, Uncle Sheng Chuan actually doesn't know." Kui Yanxiao said, "Uncle Sheng Chuan is very withdrawn, and he rarely interacts with our relatives, and the Kui family is not a big surname in Yuntang Town, so people with other surnames have nothing to do with him." He used to be a scholar, usually holding a shelf, and had little contact with the neighbors, and we, distant relatives, only met during the New Year to worship our ancestors. ”

"When I went, there seemed to be a couplet on the house, do you know who posted it?" Lin Ying asked.

Kui Yanxiao shook his head: "What? Couplets? Isn't that house unoccupied? Who is idle to post Spring Festival couplets? Several police officers, let's tell you the truth, although Yan Xin can't see anyone alive or dead now, but after all, she is Uncle Sheng Chuan's daughter. We are all relatives who are about to get out of Wufu, you say, why do you always get close to that house? Otherwise, we must not be discussed by the villagers, and we think that we are going to occupy people's property, right? So, I usually don't go there anyway, and I don't know who has the leisure to post Spring Festival couplets to the old yard. ”

"Do you fellow citizens know when the house was built?"

"Hey, you're asking the right person! I'm a person who likes history and has looked up genealogies. Our Kui clan first lived in Weiyang, a descendant of Kui Lin, the prime minister of the Qin Dynasty, and later moved away for various reasons.

"When the population migrated during the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty, an ancestor named Shiyuan Gong moved back to Yuntang Town in Weiyang with his family. Now in Yuntang Town, Lu and Luo, who moved later, have become big surnames, and the Kui family has long declined.

"As for Uncle Sheng Chuan's house, I heard that it was built during the Guangxu period. At that time, the Kui family had a royal history, and that house was called the imperial history house, and I heard that it was a big piece at that time. Later, after the Republic of China, the imperial historian had a bad descendant, and the ancestral house was sold piece by piece with gambling money, and in the end, only the five main houses remained. If there is an authentic thing, I guess it was also dug up when the imperial history built the house, and there were always bandits at that time, so it was probably used for escape at a critical time. ”

Kui Yanxiao said casually, I, a person who is interested in history, listened to it with relish, and Hua Yan had already yawned for a long time.

I suddenly remembered that as soon as it was midnight, she should have swapped with Shen Yu, and when Shen Yu suddenly came out, she would be completely blinded - and now it was eleven o'clock in the evening, and I couldn't help but get anxious.

Fortunately, Lin Ying also saw that Kui Yanxiao should not know anything about the specific situation of the Kui family, she saw that it was too late, and was about to arrange a car to send him back, Kui Yanxiao hurriedly excused herself, saying that she came by car.

I saw that the time had come, so I quickly stood up and said that Shen Yu was sleepy and was going to send her home. I didn't expect Xiao Yu, who was not open-eyed, to tease me and ask me what I wanted to do when I was in such a hurry to go home.

I didn't bother to pay attention to her, pulled the tired Hua Hu, and walked outside with Kui Yanxiao one after the other.

"Two officers, do you work overtime like this every day?" Kui Yanxiao saw that the two of us also came out, so he accosted him.

I would have explained that we are not active duty police officers, but only consultants to the police department. But thinking about it, I was afraid of wasting time, so I had to vaguely agree, and then waved goodbye to him.

"I feel so sleepy, why are I so sleepy?" Hua said leisurely as he walked.

"Maybe it's because I'm going to swap identities again." I say.

"No, Asura can stay awake, but after coming to the world, I slowly feel tired."

I just remembered that she was chasing dramas in the early hours of this morning and was sleeping with her pad in her arms.

"The environment is different, after all, you are in a human body." I said as I got off the donkey.

"Hmm." Her eyelids were almost closed.

I opened the car door, let Hua Fei sit in the passenger seat, and then helped her fasten her seatbelt.

"Thank you, dear." She was confused as she said this.

I turned to the other side of the car, and just sat in the driver's seat, when I suddenly heard someone knocking on the car door, and when I looked up, it was Kui Yanxiao, and he ran back again.

I rolled down the window, Kui Yanxiao leaned over, and he said a little anxiously: "Officer, I remembered another thing while walking, maybe it will be useful for investigating the case." ”

"What's the matter?"

"It's also about the house." Kui Yanxiao said.
