Chapter 55: Suspicion of Yang Po Murder
"What are you staring at me?"
Since Yang Po got on the horse, Xiao Jincheng has walked with her, but he always looks at her.
This made Qiao Sheng very uncomfortable, and he felt like he was being watched.
"Miss Joe really looks a lot like someone I know."
As soon as Xiao Jincheng's words came out, Yang Po, who was riding a horse in front, stiffened a little.
"Really? Then tell me who I look like. Qiao Sheng asked with a smile, her purpose was to know what the identity of the person she looked like was.
Xiao Jincheng pursed his lips and didn't say it, without confirmation, he couldn't say it, so as not to cause trouble.
Qiao Sheng didn't say anything when he saw him, and he didn't ask.
Half an hour later, they arrived at the Yamen.
She was forced to be separated from Yang Po and waited alone in the yard.
"Miss Joe has tea." The little sparrow put the teacup on the stone table, then turned and walked away.
"Wait." She stopped the little sparrow.
The little sparrow stopped reluctantly, turned around and looked at Qiao Sheng in front of him.
"Miss Qiao has something to command." If it weren't for the young master's order to serve this woman here, he wouldn't be here.
Qiao Sheng twisted his eyebrows, thinking that he had robbed this little sparrow in his previous life, otherwise how could he have such a big opinion about her.
Thinking about it, she asked the little sparrow.
"Little Sparrow, why do you hate me so much?" "Hmph." The little sparrow first glanced at her with contempt, and then said with a look of contempt, "Every year, there are many women like you who are close to the young master, and you just want to marry into the mansion, I tell you, that's impossible, my young master has a fiancΓ©e, and he is a doorman."
Yes, even if you are a maid like you, you are not worthy. β
"Oh, that's it." Qiao Sheng suddenly realized, and was not angry because of the little sparrow's contempt, and then asked the little sparrow, "I don't know what you were born in, little sparrow." β
"I'm ......," the little sparrow was about to say, but he stopped at the end of the word,
Because his little sparrow used to be just a little beggar, he was picked up by the young master when he was about to die, and his life has taken a big turn since then.
Qiao Sheng laughed when he saw that he didn't say anything again.
Generally speaking, his birth must be difficult to talk about, and she has seen a lot.
When the little sparrow saw her laughing, she felt that she was laughing at herself, and suddenly her face pulled down.
"You don't care what I was born in, in short, you don't want to beat my young master's idea."
"Hey, whoever is rare about your young master, the whole thing is like a sissy, and any woman who marries him will definitely not be sexually happy." Qiao Sheng didn't plan to pay attention to the little sparrow after speaking, picked up the tea and took a sip, and felt that it tasted good, so he took a few more sips.
I have to say that this Xiao Jincheng will really enjoy it, and the tea that entertains the guests is all good tea.
The little sparrow's face flushed, her eyes widened, and she asked, pointing at her.
"What do you mean by a sissy?"
"Haha." Qiao Sheng laughed, she looked at the little sparrow's reaction, and thought that he knew, but he didn't understand it after a long time, but she thought, "I won't tell you." β
The little sparrow glared at her, turned and walked away.
Half an hour passed.
Xiao Jincheng led Yang Po over, and she immediately got up and went over.
"Can we go back now?"
Xiao Jincheng nodded.
Seeing this, Qiao Sheng took Yang Po's wrist and walked towards the gate.
Xiao Jincheng looked at them, twisted his eyebrows slightly, and left without saying anything.
Back at home, Qiao Sheng closed the door.
When Yang Po saw her close the door, she knew what she wanted to ask, so she sat in the hall and waited for her.
Qiao Sheng came into the hall and looked at Yang Po who was sitting there, she walked over and sat opposite Yang Po.
"Grandma, Qiao Xiong, they are your ......" She didn't say the latter words, she just wanted to hear what Yang Po said.
Yang Po frowned, shook her head and said, "It's not me, why did I kill them if I had no grievances with them." β
That's right, Yang Po and Qiao Xiong have no grievances and no hatred, why do you want to kill them in one fell swoop?
Thinking of this, Qiao Sheng took out the note and put it on the table.
"Then grandma, what are you doing with this for me?"
Yang Po looked at the note on the table and was stunned for a moment, then said with a smile: "That's because I'm afraid that I won't be able to come back, and then you can take the money to the yamen to redeem me." I used to hear that if you went into the Yamen, don't think about coming out, unless you have money. β
What Yang Po said is true, but that was the previous official master, and the current Xiao Jincheng will not be the same as the previous official.
Yang Po's words can be described as leaky, and they are reasonable.
Yang Po saw that she was still thinking about this matter, so she said to her: "Qiao Xiong and his wife have raised you for a while, should you go back and deal with the aftermath for them?" β
"I don't have anything to do with them." If this was the previous Qiao Yiyi, they might have dealt with the aftermath for them.
But who is she?
She is Qiao Sheng, not Qiao Yiyi.
If Qiao Xiong and his wife were kind to her when she came here, maybe she would have been compassionate and would have dealt with the aftermath for them.
"You better mean it!" Yang Po persuaded.
"Grandma, don't persuade me, I won't collect the corpses for them, besides, it's not my turn to do this, they also have a good son Qiao Dazhuang, this matter should be handled by Qiao Dazhuang."
Yang Po saw that she didn't eat oil and salt, so she didn't say anything.
"In that case, then it's up to you." After Yang Po finished speaking, she went back to her room.
She gave a thump to her shoulder, got up, and went back to her room.
Fulai Town School.
"Qiao Dazhuang, someone is looking for you outside."
Qiao Dazhuang, who was playing with a few rich boys, heard someone looking for him, so he greeted a few rich boys, and then went out.
Qiao Yu was at the door of the school, raising his head and looking at the words on it.
Qiao Dazhuang came out just in time to see this scene, smiled sarcastically, and walked up to him and mocked.
"Cousin, do you know the words on it?"
"I don't know." Qiao Yu lowered his eyes and looked at Qiao Dazhuang in front of him, smiled awkwardly, and shook his head.
"You don't know, you've been staring at it for so long." Qiao Dazhuang's tone slowly looked down on people, looked at Qiao Yu's white-washed clothes, and asked with disgust, "What are you doing with me?" β
"Your father and mother are dead."
"Cousin, don't joke with me, how could my father and mother die, and they are not sick." Qiao Dazhuang felt that he was joking.
Seeing that he didn't believe it, Qiao Yu continued: "Your father's corpse is in the yamen now, if you don't believe it, you can go and see it now." β
This time Qiao Dazhuang couldn't laugh, he looked at Qiao Yu very seriously and asked, "What you said is true?" β
"Really." Qiao Yu nodded heavily.
Qiao Dazhuang still didn't believe it, he pushed away Qiao Yu in front of him, and ran in the direction of the yamen, Qiao Yu followed.
The entrance of the yamen.
Qiao Dazhuang broke in directly, but was stopped.
"Stop, do you know what this place is? Is it a place for your little kid to play? β
"My name is Qiao Dazhuang, I heard that my father's body is in the yamen, let me confirm." Qiao Dazhuang said to the officers and soldiers guarding the door.
As soon as the gatekeeper heard that it was Qiao Dazhuang, he led him in.
"Follow me."
Qiao Dazhuang followed him in, and then went to the morgue, and the other person went to inform the adults.
In the morgue, the two corpses emitted a stench, and Qiao Dazhuang covered his nose and his legs were weak before he approached.
"Cousin, you go and uncover it and I'll take a look."
Qiao Yu didn't bother with him, and walked over to uncover the cloth for him to see.
Seeing his parents whose faces were a little black and a little rotten, Qiao Dazhuang's face was pale and colorless, and he ran out with a crawl.
Qiao Yu chased out, looking at Qiao Dazhuang, who was spitting on the pillar, he walked over to help him stroke his back.
"The people in the yamen said that your father and mother died of poisoning, and the murderer is still under investigation."
"Any clues?" Qiao Dazhuang turned around, and he wiped his mouth.
"Nope." Qiao Yu shook his head.
At this time, Xiao Jincheng came over, looking at Qiao Dazhuang, who was only a teenager, and wearing a school uniform, Xiao Jincheng frowned slightly.
It's not unusual for an ordinary family to send their children to study in the town.
Qiao Yu saw Xiao Jincheng and hurriedly worshipped.
"Your Excellency."
Seeing this, Qiao Dazhuang hurriedly learned from his cousin and saluted the adult.
"My lord, please avenge my parents." Qiao Dazhuang knelt on the ground as he spoke.
Xiao Jincheng didn't tell Qiao Dazhuang to get up, the little sparrow brought a chair over, he sat down directly, and his eyes didn't leave Qiao Dazhuang's body.
"How much does the town's school cost a year?"
Qiao Dazhuang twisted his eyebrows, he didn't understand what the adult was asking for, but he still had to answer honestly when the adult asked.
"Ten taels a year."
"What is the average person's monthly expenses? You said. Xiao Jincheng looked at Qiao Yu.
Qiao Yu, who was suddenly named, was a little slow to react, and when he reacted, he immediately answered the adult's question.
"Back to my lord, like our family, we use two hundred dollars a month to buy salt or something, and we have our own vegetables."
Xiao Jincheng's eyes widened in surprise, it turned out that ordinary people use this money, how do they live?
He didn't dwell on this issue, but looked at Qiao Dazhuang who was kneeling in front of him.
"Your one-year tuition fee is actually enough for other people's expenses for three years, it seems that your family's conditions are good!"
Qiao Dazhuang frowned, feeling that these had nothing to do with the death of his parents, so he wanted to correct the adults.
"Adult, the villain wants to avenge his parents, and it seems to have nothing to do with the villain's tuition."
"Shut up, my young master must be asking this to investigate the person who killed your parents."
was reprimanded by the little sparrow, Qiao Dazhuang didn't dare to speak anymore, but he was still unconvinced.
Xiao Jincheng saw the expression on his face, the corners of his lips raised slightly, and he smiled.
"How come your family has so much money for you to read and write?"
Qiao Dazhuang was stopped by this question, because he didn't know where the money came from.
Seeing that he still didn't answer the question, the little sparrow said, "My young master asked you something." β
"The villain doesn't know." Qiao Dazhuang shook his head.
"I heard that your parents made a fortune after raising Qiao Yiyi. Is there such a thing? Xiao Jincheng stared at him.
Qiao Dazhuang shook his head: "The villain doesn't know, the villain was not born at that time. "Alright, you can transport your parents' bodies back and bury them!" It's a strange hot day, and it's not good to stay here with this official. After Xiao Jincheng finished speaking, he got up and turned around and left.
