Chapter 115: Portrait
Bidding farewell to the county lieutenant, Jiang Yi and his entourage soon left Qingniu Town.
At the beginning of the day after the rain, the trees on both sides of the road are particularly spiritual, and the rich green is like flowing watercolor.
The smell of damp earth hit the face, and the horses' hooves trampled on the muddy road, slowing down the speed of the carriage and horses.
"Hey, isn't that the Li brothers and sisters?" Jiang Zhan grabbed the reins and raised his finger.
There was a group of people under the big tree not far away, led by the Li brothers and sisters.
The brother and sister live in Dayang Town, not far from Qingniu Town, and the children of the rich squire families are not more squeamish than the noble girls and sons in the capital, and a group of people, including Miss Li, are on foot.
Yu Jin glanced coldly in that direction.
This kid is scared to pee, is he still a thief?
Glancing sideways at the carriage, Yu Jin's heart jumped.
It can't be a lawsuit, right?
Li Gongzi didn't dare to look at Yu Jin at all, and hurriedly beckoned to Jiang Zhan: "Brother Jiang, my sister wants to say goodbye to Sister Ling." โ
Yu Jin's face was suddenly ugly, and the corners of his mouth hooked up with a sneer.
The little bastard has grown in, and he knows that he is close to his sister's set, but Ah seems to be unwilling to deal with strangers who have nothing to do.
"Parkingโ"
It was Lao Qin who was driving the car, and when he heard Jiang's command, he immediately pulled the reins and stopped the carriage.
Ah Man picked up the curtain of the car door and helped Jiang to get out of the car.
"Second brother, you wait first. Come and don't be rude, people are waiting here to say goodbye to me, and I will go over to talk to Miss Li. โ
Of course, Jiang Zhan wouldn't stop him, but just told Aman: "Help you girls, be careful of slippery roads." โ
Yu Jin touched his nose with a dark face.
When Jiang seemed to walk over, Miss Li came up with the hem of her skirt and spoke first: "Miss Jiang, let's go over there and talk." โ
Jiang seemed to look at Miss Li carefully.
She was still haggard, her eyes were blue, her lips were pale in color, like a person who had just recovered from a serious illness, but there was something more in her eyes that was difficult to see.
Jiang seemed to be puzzled.
With the appearance of Miss Li in the Lingwu Temple who avoided her, what was the purpose of waiting here?
The two of them walked to the side of the road with their own thoughts, and gradually widened the distance between them and Jiang Zhan and the others, and Ah Man followed not far away.
Miss Li stopped by a willow tree and glanced at Ah Man.
"Ah Man is my confidant, Miss Li has something to say, but it doesn't hurt to say it."
Seeing that Miss Li was still hesitating, Jiang seemed to remind: "The two of us say goodbye, if we break the maid, I am afraid that we will be suspicious in the eyes of others." โ
One sentence dispelled the other party's idea of wanting to break away from Aman, and Miss Li hesitated to speak: "I just thought of something about Miss Chi-"
"What's the matter?" Jiang seemed to be silent on his face, but he was inevitably excited in his heart.
Naturally, the more detailed the matter about Miss Chi, the better.
It feels like although she thinks that Miss Chi is the latest victim, but what if something goes wrong?
The day when Lord Zhen entered Beijing and stopped at the post house was May 19, and there was not much time left for her.
"I want to ask Miss Jiang one thing first."
"Miss Li, please speak."
Miss Li's lips twitched, and her hand clenched and loosened, obviously a little nervous.
Jiang seemed to wait patiently.
"Did Miss Chi have an accident?" Miss Li finally mustered up the courage to ask the words that were hovering in her heart.
Jiang seemed to be silent for a moment and nodded slightly.
Miss Li's face turned even paler: "She-"
How is she, I didn't ask at all.
After experiencing the tragic death of her lover, this girl has become extremely sensitive and afraid of "death", and she is even more afraid that this misfortune will fall on the head of someone she knows, even if that person just meets in the water.
"I'm here to help her." In the end, Jiang seemed to have to say this, whether to believe it or not is all up to the other party.
Miss Li was silent for a long time.
"What does Miss Li want to say?" It was Jiang who seemed to break the deadlock.
Miss Li stared at Jiang's eyes and considered the wording: "Maybe I remembered wrong, after all, I haven't been with Miss Chi for a long time, and I always feel that she is ...... She is somewhat similar to Miss Jiang......"
"What?" Jiang seemed to sink in his heart, and couldn't help but recall the appearance of the female corpse.
It was too dark at night, and she was busy looking for clues, and she didn't look much at the still immature face.
Who can bear to see more of that kind of miserable scene?
Are they similar? Jiang seemed to put a question mark in his heart.
"It's not that the appearance is very similar, how to say it - it's just that the eyebrows and eyes are somewhat similar. In this way, I'll draw Miss Chi to show you. โ
Jiang seemed to be overjoyed: "Miss Li can draw a portrait of Miss Chi?" โ
Although she didn't see the resemblance between the female corpse and her on that murderous night, she still remembered the general appearance of the female corpse, and if Miss Li could really draw Miss Chi, she would be able to determine if it was the same person.
Miss Li is quite complacent: "I invited a gentleman from my family, I didn't learn anything else, Danqing is okay, but now I don't have a pen and paperโโ"
"I have it in the car."
Jiang seemed to simply invite Miss Li to get into the carriage.
"Fourth sisterโ"
Jiang seemed to poke his head out of the carriage and begged softly: "Second brother, I hit Miss Li at first sight, let's talk again." If you wait to be bored, go to the roadside with Yu Gongzi to rest. โ
"It's not boring, you guys can talk, talk as long as you want." was begged by his sister like this, Jiang Zhan smiled out of his white teeth, pulled Yu Jin and left.
Yu Jin hated that iron could not become steel, and glared at Jiang Zhan.
Does this man have any principles?
Although Jiang Zhan didn't know Yu Jin's true thoughts, he also saw his dissatisfaction, and said with a smile: "The fourth sister has spoken, why don't you follow her heart for such a trivial matter?" Oh, Brother Yu Qi, you don't have a sister, I don't understand. โ
Yu Jin rolled his eyes silently.
He doesn't have a sister? His big group of sisters were scared to death when they spoke out.
It was precisely because of his sister that it was difficult for him to understand Jiang Zhan's thoughts.
When the elder brother has no majesty at all, he should leave with his sister with a straight face at this time.
In the carriage, Jiang seemed to have prepared pen and ink.
Miss Li is indeed quite accomplished in Danqing, and it didn't take long to sketch the image of a cardamom girl.
Jiang seemed to bite his lip.
Seeing this portrait, she can already be sure that the person in the painting is the corpse of the garden girl!
Unlike the female corpse's desperate eyes, the girl's eyebrows in the painting are exquisite, and her eyes are looking forward to Shenfei, which is really similar to her.
A cold breath rose from the bottom of Jiang Ru's heart, accompanied by overwhelming anger.
She will definitely let the Hou Shizi of Changxing have evil retribution.
Jiang seemed to leave the painting behind and sent Miss Li away.
The carriage traveled to the official road, and it was much better, and it was about to come to a fork in the road, Jiang Zhan turned his head sideways and said to Yu Jin, who was riding side by side: "Brother Yu Qi, it's hard to get out, I still have to take the fourth sister to go shopping elsewhere, do you plan to go back to Beijing?" โ
Under the sun, the young man smiled harmlessly: "It's okay to go back to Beijing, I want to go shopping with Second Brother Jiang." โ
