Chapter 5 The two fathers and sons of the Jin family
The county magistrate saw the old man's appearance with a handful of snot and tears, and he felt a little emotional. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Chen Zhutou, this old gentleman is really sincere to his wife, and the official is particularly moved. Why don't you just do it? “
Chen Jinbao really didn't know why the county master was moved, nodded and said, "Okay, follow your orders." “
Then, the county lord said to the old man, "Go quickly, don't be too sad, maybe you will continue in the next life." “
"Thank you, sir!"
The old man bowed to the county magistrate, turned around and was helped by his son and walked away again, crying next to the corpse.
Chen Jinbao squinted at the county master, and sympathy and pity really appeared in the county master's eyes. Thinking back to what the county magistrate said just now, he really didn't understand why the county magistrate still said something like poignant love in this absurd marriage.
The old man lay down beside the corpse and wept for a while, and at last he was really tired of crying, so he put a white cloth over the deceased again.
Then the old man walked up to Chen Jinbao and the county magistrate again, and said: "Thank you for your success, the villain must ask the adult to arrest the murderer and bring it to justice, in order to pay tribute to the lady's soul in the sky!" “
The county magistrate nodded: "This is natural, and it is also troublesome for your old man to cooperate with the yamen to handle the case." “
After speaking, several people left the morgue and came to the county master's house. I have to say that although Yang Sheng doesn't have any mind to handle cases, he really doesn't have any official skews.
The two fathers and sons went to the table, and the county magistrate ordered someone to make a pot of tea, and several people chatted.
"Let me ask, what are the two honorable names?" Chen Jinbao asked.
The old man took a sip of tea and replied, "Back to the adult, the villain is called Jin Maocai, and the dog is called Jin Manguan." “
When Chen Jinbao heard these two names, he thought that he was worthy of doing business.
Chen Jinbao then asked: "When did your wife disappear?" “
Master Jin replied, "Last night." “
"When?"
Master Jin thought about it for a moment and said, "I don't remember." “
"And when did you find out she's missing?"
"Hmm....... When sleeping. “
Chen Jinbao was a little impatient.
"And when did you sleep?"
"Hmm........ Wash your feet and fall asleep. “
"You!"
Chen Jinbao's teeth were about to crush when he heard this. But he got a clue that the deceased and this old man were definitely not really in love.
"Hoo ......"
After taking a deep breath to ease his emotions, Chen Jinbao continued to ask: "Master Jin, I want to ask you when you found out that your wife was missing last night." “
Master Jin raised his head again and recalled last night's events, and Young Master Jin, who was sitting on the side, said to Chen Jinbao: "My lord, I should have been missing last night (from seven o'clock in the evening to nine o'clock in the evening), and the specific time is not clear, and my mother was still there when I had dinner." “
Chen Jinbao then asked: "So I haven't seen her since dinner?" “
Young Master Jin nodded: "Yes, my lord." “
Chen Jinbao recalled the scene of seeing a female ghost last night, if the female ghost was the deceased herself, why did she smile at us on the street?
"Does your mother have a red dress? Or was she wearing a red dress before she disappeared last night? “
Young Master Jin thought for a while, and then replied: "Mother did wear a red dress last night, and the workmanship of that dress was very good and the price was not cheap, so Mother often wore it, and the adults asked why this was for?" “
"Oh, nothing, she was dressed in red when we found her yesterday."
Chen Jinbao thought to himself, it seems that he doesn't know about the haunting yet.
"Didn't you look for her when you found out she was gone?"
Young Master Jin replied: "My lord, at that time, the villain's whole family was already lying in bed, and they didn't know that their mother was missing, and it was early this morning that my father said that my mother didn't go to bed last night to know that she was gone, so the villain brought his father to report to the official." “
Chen Jinbao nodded, he looked at Young Master Jin, and felt that his reaction to the deceased seemed to be a little unnatural, and the reason was that he was really too harmonious with the deceased. Mother can be called out when she says two words, you must know that his stepmother is only two years older than him. His father is always confused, he shouldn't be confused.
"Young master, can you take a step to speak?"
Young Master Jin nodded.
"Obey your lordship's arrangement."
The county magistrate, who had been sitting without speaking, didn't understand what Chen Jinbao meant, and asked, "Chen Zhutou, is there anything you can't say?" “
Chen Jinbao glanced at the county lord and glanced at Master Jin with his eyes, meaning that he couldn't let Master Jin hear.
"Oh."
Chen Jinbao felt that the county magistrate understood, and just wanted to go out, the county magistrate shouted: "Come on, take down this criminal!" “
"That's not right!"
Then several officials rushed in, and scared Master Jin so much that he jumped up directly from the bench.
Chen Jinbao hurriedly stopped them, then walked to the county master, and said his thoughts in his ear, and the county master understood.
"Oh, Chen Zhutou, you said it earlier, you see this is a mess, the officials have all retreated, come and come to Master Jin to sit down."
Chen Jinbao sighed, walked outside the house with Young Master Jin, and asked, "Young Master Jin, I want to ask how your mother, the deceased, married into your family?" “
A look of embarrassment appeared on Young Master Jin's face.
"Adult, villain wants to know why you are asking this?"
Chen Jinbao looked back at the old man Jin sitting in the room, and then said: "Then let's open the skylight and say something bright, you also know that your stepmother is two years older than you, Ling Zun married her to let you call her mother, you don't seem to have any complaints, I want to know if there is something hidden here." “
Young Master Jin frowned and pursed his lips to think about it, then sighed.
"Hey, my lord, let me tell you the truth, that woman used to be a fireworks woman, and I guess how my father knew her. At that time, the villain's mother had been gone for a few years, and the father said that he would redeem her and marry her, and the villain, who was a son, did not dare to say anything, but after all, the family was also doing business, and this kind of thing was not good to say, so there was no big deal to marry her at that time, and basically no one knew about it. My father is seventy-one this year, and the villain wants to make his old man happy more than anything else. “
Chen Jinbao nodded, and asked again: "Actually, I'm a little strange, you are only twenty-two years old this year, Ling Zun is already seventy-one, you are still his son, this ....."
Young Master Jin smiled at Chen Jinbao, and then clasped his fists and said to Chen Jinbao: "It really made the adults laugh, and the villain will not hide it from the adults at this point." In fact, the villain was born illegitimate to his father and mother. It is precisely because of this that the villain does not dare to make irresponsible remarks about the woman. “
Chen Jinbao touched his chin, feeling why the family was so messy.
"Then Young Master Jin, you just said that your mother has passed away, do you have any other brothers and sisters in your family?"
Young Master Jin sighed again and said, "There may be, the villain doesn't know." “
Chen Jinbao was a little puzzled and asked, "What do you mean maybe?" “
Young Master Jin rubbed his temples with both hands, and then said: "Hey, the villain knows that there is a half-brother, who was born to his father and his original partner and later died of illness, his father likes to mess with flowers and grass everywhere, and the villain's mother was originally a maid in the family, and then my father raped her and conceived me, and it was precisely because Mrs. Zhengfang found out about the adultery between my father and my mother, and then I couldn't afford to be sick until I died." At that time, my father married the villain's biological mother, but my mother didn't have any feelings for my father, she was born to me by qiangjian, although I later had a name, but in the end I was depressed until I died. Adult, the villain's family has been in the jewelry business for several generations, and the money is very rich, and the father is also relying on this to mess with flowers and grass everywhere, and every time he meets a favorite woman, he makes some mountain alliances and sea vows, so the villain doesn't know if his father will leave a brother or sister anywhere. “
Chen Jinbao bit his lip and nodded, then looked back at Master Jin again, and thought, the older he gets, the stronger his skin becomes.
At this time, a servant ran over, shouting as he ran: "Master, someone has reported to the official!" “
