Chapter 66: Case Closed
Qi'er's hands and feet trembled a little, he swallowed hard and said, "I really haven't gone out, I slept until dawn." I've been brought here for so long and interrogated, and I'm innocent. ”
As soon as Ji Qingyi heard him say this, he stepped forward and grabbed his right arm, and then pulled the sleeve on his arm to the shoulder. Well, when Ji Qingyi touched the skin of this Qi'er, he still thought that this little girl's skin was so tender.
Ji Qingyi secretly scolded himself for being perverted, and when he looked down, he saw that there was indeed a scratch on Qi'er's arm, Ji Qingyi's eyes were over, and he said coldly: "What's the matter with this scratch?"
Qi'er hurriedly put down her sleeves, lowered her head and said in a panic: "It's normal for us to have a little injury on our body when we do this business."
Ji Qingyi felt goosebumps rise when she heard this, and she coughed and said, "Your scratch is obviously not man-made, but solid friction."
She paused and said, "We saw a blood stain on the edge of the eaves, but it has something to do with this scratch on your body?"
Qi'er's hands and feet trembled even more, he shook his head and said, "I don't know, I accidentally made this scratch myself, and it has nothing to do with that well."
Ji Qingyi wanted to laugh when she heard it, and the well didn't want to have anything to do with you.
Ji Qingyi sat back in his seat, and his fingers knocked on the table without a moment: "Where did you put the Night Pearl?"
Ji Qingyi saw Qi'er's body stiffen, and said in a panic: "What night pearl?" I do not know. ”
Ji Qingyi sneered: "You don't know? Admit it, have you been in the same boat with that butler for a long time? ”
Qi'er clenched her hands into fists: "I didn't!"
Ji Qingyi didn't pay attention to him, so he continued to take care of himself: "You and the housekeeper coveted the money in Zuo Shilang's mansion, so they stole the night pearl together, but they didn't want to have a dispute when they divided the spoils, so you fell into the well in the quarrel, and you wanted to save him at first, so you took his hand, but you thought in a blink of an eye, and when he died, the money could fall into your hands, so you let go of the hand that held him and let him fall into the well." But did you know that the steward did not die immediately after falling into the well, he carved your name on the bottom of the well with his fingernails? ”
This time, Xiao Jin was stunned, didn't he say that his eyes were not good to see the scratches clearly? This person who can't even see the scratch clearly can even say what the scratch looks like? I didn't expect this little girl to use fried.
Qi'er's face turned even paler, pursed his lips and his eyes fluttered, and he lowered his head so that people couldn't see his face clearly.
Ji Qingyi looked at him and said, "Did I say it?"
Qi'er buried his head and didn't speak, but his shoulders trembled more and more, and he shook badly, and after a while, he raised his head, his face full of tears: "I didn't kill him, I really wanted to save him at the time, but I couldn't pull it up, and then he slid to the bottom of the well by himself."
Ji Qingyi said expressionlessly: "Tell me what you did at that time."
Qi'er wiped her tears and choked up: "The housekeeper in Zuo Shilang's mansion is called Zhao Xin, and he and I are fellow villagers, and I was brought to the imperial capital by him." At that time, he said to my mother that he was going to find me a good errand, because everyone in the family knew that he was a housekeeper in the imperial capital, so they were very envious of him. I thought he would find me an errand in the house, but he sold me to Golan. ”
"At first, I didn't know what kind of place this was, I just thought it was good to have a good house to live in and eat, and I was very grateful to Zhao Xin in my heart, but I didn't expect Goolan to be that kind of place. Later, when I met Zhao Xin again, it was because I was taken to the mansion by Zuo Shilang, I was angry, and I really wanted to teach him a lesson, but he told me that he had sent the silver taels that sold me to my mother, saying that I could earn a lot of silver in Goolan. ”
"Later, every time I went to Zuo Shilang's house, Zhao Xin and I would steal things from his house, and then I handed over the stolen things to Zhao Xin, and Zhao Xin sold my share to send to my mother, that day, we did steal the night pearl, but I did not hand over the night pearl to him at that time, because I found that Zhao Xin deceived me, I wrote a letter to my mother, asked about the situation at home, but my mother said that I left and there was no news, and asked me to earn silver, and the rice at home was gone."
Qi'er cried even more as he spoke, he covered his face and said, "So I questioned him that day, but he refuted it, saying that he obviously sent the silver and said that my mother was lying, how could my mother talk to me?" So I was angry and threw the night pearl out of the courtyard in Zuo Shilang's mansion, he ran over in a hurry to find it, didn't pay attention to his feet, and then almost fell in, I was going to pull him, I didn't want to hurt him, but I couldn't pull up, he fell down by himself. ”
Ji Qingyi looked at him, and inexplicably felt that he was not only pitiful but also had a bad brain, so he asked, "Then why don't you tell the truth?" It wasn't yours who killed him in the first place. ”
Qi'er lowered his head and grasped his fist: "I can't say the reason why I looked for Zhao Xin in the middle of the night, theft is also a felony."
Ji Qingyi looked at Xiao Jin and said, "Let's go out."
After Xiao Jin and Ji Qingyi went out, they roughly talked to He Huaishen, and the case was settled. Just as he was about to go back, he saw He Xiaobai wandering back and forth in front of the door of Fushoutang, Ji Qingyi walked over quickly and said, "Xiaobai?"
After He Qingchen was banned by He Huaishen, he couldn't get out of the house, but He Qingchen was still a master who loved Xiaobai more, knowing that Xiaobai liked to eat Fushoutang's pastries, and originally wanted to tell his subordinates to buy a few boxes, but the flavor He Xiaobai liked to eat couldn't be named, so he asked his subordinates to bring He Xiaobai over to buy it. But halfway to the road, He Xiaobai watched an acrobatic kung fu and couldn't find the next person, he came to the door of Fushoutang with his memory, just wanted to go in, but the silver was in the hands of the next person, and he was thinking about whether to go back to the house first, when he heard Ji Qingyi's voice calling him.
He Xiaobai turned around and saw Ji Qingyi, ran quickly to hug her, raised his head and said, "Sister."
Ji Qingyi squatted down and rubbed his face and asked, "Xiaobai, why are you here by yourself?" He Qingyun let you go out by yourself? ”
He Xiaobai shook his head and said: "Uncle didn't let my brother go out, but my brother wanted Xiaobai to eat the pastries of Fushoutang that Xiaobai liked, so he asked his subordinates to bring Xiaobai here, but Xiaobai and his subordinates got lost......"
Ji Qingyi frowned, and said dissatisfiedly: "Why is his subordinate in He Mansion so inappropriate?"
He Xiaobai hugged Ji Qingyi's neck and said, "No, it's Xiaobai running around by himself."
Ji Qingyi kissed He Xiaobai's little face: "What do you want to eat?" My sister bought it for you. ”
He Xiaobai nodded happily, rubbed it in Ji Qingyi's neck, and said in a milky voice: "I haven't seen my sister for a few days, Xiaobai misses you."
Ji Qingyi's heart was melted by He Xiaobai, she held He Xiaobai's little head and said, "Why don't you go to my sister's place to play for a few days?"
He Xiaobai's eyes lit up when he heard this, but as if he remembered something, he muttered: "But Xiaobai still has to accompany his brother, and his brother is already very bored and bored at home, if Xiaobai doesn't want his brother anymore, his brother will be sad."
Just by virtue of He Xiaobai's listening to He Huaishen's words in the past few days, he shouted He Qingyan up early in the morning to endorse the behavior of practicing martial arts, if He Qingyan heard this, he would probably dance the striptease excitedly on the side, and said while dancing: You go, you go, my brother will live a long life without you!
But Ji Qingyi had the idea that she couldn't let her brother suffer from lovesickness, so she generously accepted He Xiaobai's rejection of her proposal.
Ji Qingyi took He Xiaobai into Fushoutang, pointed to the various pastries on the table and said, "What does Xiaobai want to eat?" Just take my sister and buy it for you. ”
He Xiaobai scratched his head, raised his head and said to Ji Qingyi: "Sister, I, I don't know what the one I ate last time tasted, but it was delicious......
Ji Qingyi winked at him: "It's okay, sing one by one."
Then he waved his little hand like an upstart and said, "Boss!"
It is said that this Fushoutang is also a store specializing in the business of the rich, and as soon as he saw the prince of Jin, he immediately nodded and walked over: "What do you want?"
Ji Qingyi pointed to these pastries and said, "These pastries come together with one flavor."
The boss hurriedly instructed the shopkeeper: "What are you still doing in a daze, hurry up and wrap it up!"
Ji Qingyi waved his hand and said, "You don't need to wrap it up, you all put it in one tray and let my brother taste it."
The boss nodded and smiled and squeezed out the folds: "Gotta gotcha, let me pick it out."
The movements of the people in this store are also very fast, and in the blink of an eye, they have already picked a plate, and it is neatly placed.
Ji Qingyi pointed to He Xiaobai to taste, He Xiaobai also encountered this posture for the first time, and was a little stunned: "Sister, it's too wasteful to eat one bite......"
Ji Qingyi rubbed his head and said, "You can eat it, and if you see that it is delicious, tell your sister, and your sister will buy it for you."
He Xiaobai's face flushed, nodded happily, and then happily picked up a pastry and began to eat. At this time, suddenly He Qingyan ran over from the door panting, swallowed his saliva and shouted, "Xiao, Xiaobai."
He Xiaobai stuffed the pastry in his mouth, and when he looked back, his eyes widened in surprise when he saw He Qing.
Ji Qingyi also walked over in wonder: "Hey? Aren't you being banned by your father? ”
He Qingyun was still panting, and said intermittently: "This is not ...... The lower ...... of the house The next person came back and said that he couldn't find Xiaobai...... Xiaobai, I'll jump over the wall and run out to find ...... Looked. ”
