Chapter Twenty-Eight: Lover's Vine (7)
So many things happened in the mansion, Master Wu's white hair was almost all over his head, Erniang was helping him, basking in the sun in the courtyard, he saw Di Renjie and a few of them, so he beckoned them over.
"Master Wu, where are you basking in the sun?" Di Renjie asked. Master Wu smiled and nodded, didn't speak, just looked at the sky and sighed.
"Yes, after lying down for so many days, I feel that my body is damp, basking in the sun, and my mood is good!" Erniang wiped the corners of his mouth while holding tea to Master Wu.
"There have been too many things happening in the past few days, and it seems that it is really not suitable for us to stay, Dad, when you are well and the weather is warmer, come with me to the Uighurs, herd cattle and sheep, drink mare's milk wine, it is better than staying here!" The eldest young master said and took the teacup from Erniang's hand,
"The Uighurs are my mother's hometown, and when the matter is over, I want to send her ashes to the Uighurs, Di Gongzi, I ask you to do me a favor, I must find out the murderer, and return ...... Give my mother justice. ”
"What? Grandma Da Shao is not Han, but Uighur? Su Zimo asked.
"Yes, six years ago, when we first arrived in Bingzhou, she came to our house with his brother to work, and we met and fell in love! Later I learned that she and his brother were Uighurs who had come here to escape the war. When I married her, she became my main house and the only lady. The eldest young master had a smile on his lips, as if he was reminiscing.
A trace of displeasure flashed on Erniang's face, although it was only for a moment, it couldn't escape Di Renjie's eyes.
"By the way, young master, is this thing yours?" Di Renjie handed the concentric knot to the eldest young master.
"Huh? Oh, yes, I gave it to my wife, and now I see things and think about people, and I am so saddened! The eldest young master picked up the concentric knot and began to cry bitterly.
"Okay, okay, such a big person, what does it look like to cry like this?" As she spoke, Erniang began to blame the eldest young master, but the other people remembered the words of the maid and Wu Meiniang in their minds.
Di Renjie looked at the dazzling sunlight, and felt that the truth was like putting on a thick coat, waiting for him to peel off layer by layer, but he couldn't find the knot that took off his coat.
"Oh, hurry up, really, I'll move all this rice to the kitchen!" The housekeeper scolded a few of the housekeepers who were carrying rice,
"It's all big men, people can carry four or five bags of rice at once, but you can't carry three bags?"
"The housekeeper is talking nonsense, who is so vigorous and can carry four or five bags of rice, except for the Uighurs like Wang Zhong, who grew up eating beef and mutton, we can't bear it, but what is the use of Wang Zhong's hard work, isn't he also dead?"
"Shut up! Have you forgotten the taboo? If you don't want to do it, get out! The butler scolded loudly. Di Renjie suddenly came to his senses,
"What? Wang Zhong, I don't think I've heard this name before! ”
"It's the lover of the maid who was forced to die, that is, the original groom of the martial arts!" Su Zimo said.
"Just now, the eldest young master said that the eldest young grandmother is also a Uighur, and she is from the same place as Wang Zhong, is it ...... Could it be that Wang Zhong is the elder brother of the eldest young grandmother in the mouth of the eldest young master, but why are they so taboo about Wang Zhong's name? ”
"I don't know, let's go, let's go to the morgue first to see the headless corpse of the young grandmother!" When I passed by the kitchen, I saw the housekeeper scolding something with his waist crossed.
"You said that this widow Shen is really excessive, why did you lock the kitchen door, we carried such a heavy amount of rice, and we were locked out of the door!" Di Renjie and Su Zimo walked over,
"What's the matter, butler, making such a big fire?"
"Hey, don't mention it, Shen Niang, who is in charge of the kitchen, received the letter from home and went home to visit relatives, why did you lock this door! Alas, the widow is so troublesome that she deserves to be bitten by a dog! ”
"Bitten by a dog?" Zhang Cambodia asked.
"Yes, I went out to buy vegetables a while ago, and I was bitten by someone's dog on the stomach! Alas, when I think of the kitchen, I think of my grandmother, her cooking skills and knife skills are also superb, but she hasn't cooked for several years! There will never be a chance to cook for us, alas! Su Zimo said with a smile,
"What's so hard about this, look at me!" As soon as the fingers were closed, the lock was broken.
"Oh, in the end, it's from the capital, Miss Su's martial arts are strong, come on, come on, a few of you move the rice in, by the way, bring me the firewood, Shen Niang is not here today, a few of us cook!" Di Renjie and Su Zimo came to the morgue together and met Di Zhixun,
"Huaiying, Miss Su, you came just in time, Miss Jing was told by me to ask me to help with the autopsy, you can also go in and have a look!" Su Zimo glanced at Di Renjie,
"Be happy, your lady Jing is inside!"
"What? What my lady Jing, what are you talking nonsense? ”
"The murderer's knife skills are very good, he cut off the head of the corpse with one knife, you see that the wound of this corpse is very neat, it is cut off flat, the murderer is either a butcher or a soldier!" Jingshu said.
"That's strange, the murderer seems to be a person who is used to using knives, and the murderer must be familiar with the martial arts!" Di Renjie glanced at Jing Shu and said.
"Could it be the eldest young master, their husband and wife have always been in a discordant relationship, and then took the opportunity to kill them, and between their brothers, isn't the relationship not good?" Su Zimo said.
"But when the second young master had an accident, the eldest young master had alibi evidence!" Zhang Cambodia answered.
"Alas, let's go, let's go, go back to Wufu first!" Di Renjie shook his head,
"By the way, Miss Jingshu, do you want to go back with us?"
"Oh, no, I'm going back to the infirmary, there are still patients waiting in the infirmary!"
"Doctor's office? Miss Jing, have you opened a medical clinic? ”
"No, I recently worked with a few colleagues to provide free treatment for patients in the hospital, you can come to the east of the city to find me if you have something!" : Jing Shu walked out of the door, Di Renjie was still looking at it from afar, Su Zimo glanced at him and said,
"Don't look at it, everyone is far away, let's go, we'll go back to eat, starving to death!"
"Eat? Are you sure you can eat? Zhang Cambodia asked.
"Okay, Doctor Zhang, are you like this detective, do you forget that you are hungry when you see a beautiful woman?" Walking into the Wu Mansion, a maid came in with a dinner plate,
"Oh, you're finally back, we're hot and cold with this meal, it's cold and hot, but fortunately you're back, otherwise you'll have to take it back and reheat it."
"Huh? Someone cooking today? Is the food cooked by the housekeeper good? Jotte said.
"It wasn't done by the housekeeper, it was done by Shen Niang, she will be back in the afternoon!" The maid said with a smile.
"It's hard work!" Di Renjie took the plate from the maid's hand and gobbled it up with Xiao Yi.
"Brother Di, I'm really hungry, I ate a very delicious meal today!"
"I'm not hungry, yes, today's meal is really different from what I've eaten before!"
"Ah, aren't you too hungry, so you think it's especially delicious to eat!"
"Well, maybe!" Di Renjie began to think about something while pulling the rice into his mouth. Half eaten, pull up Jottay, let's go, let's go to the morgue and have a look!
"No, Brother Di, we just came back from the morgue, why are we going again!"
"Let's go, I'll know the murderer!" The butler sat alone on the threshold in a daze.
"Eh, what's wrong with you?" Jotte asked.
"Nothing, it's just that tonight's meal doesn't know why, it's a particularly familiar feeling!"
"Hey, you eat here every day, of course it's familiar!"
"No, it's not Shen Niang's cooking, it's like the handiwork of a dead grandmother!" Qiao Tai smiled and said,
"Don't be scary here, ...... People have become ghosts, so they will cook for you! Di Renjie had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and glanced at Qiao Tai approvingly,
"I feel like we're close to the killer!" The two of them came to the morgue again, and Di Renjie lifted the corpse's underwear.
"And so it was!" Then he took the two hands of the corpse and began to look closely,
"Don't look at it, I know who the murderer is!"
"Huh? Brother Di, do you know who the murderer is? Jotte asked.
"Yes, but I need your help with a few things!"
