Chapter 255: The Tranquility of Years Ago

Although Xiao Song is the son-in-law of the family, Ran Yan has also heard that it is not that he has a lot of money in the family and has inexhaustible money, especially Lang Jun like Xiao Song, who can be an independent portal, and he has a fixed monthly money from the public every month, and other expenses are generally responsible for himself.

The Tang Dynasty officials' salaries generally include rice, money, and office fields, etc., and the office fields cannot be sold, and the money obtained is contained in the materials, the so-called materials, including monthly materials, food, miscellaneous uses, and the officials have defense cabinets or servants, etc., so after calculation, the money available every month is not particularly rich, and it is not as good as a rich businessman like Ran Pingyu.

I'm afraid that this room of medicinal materials will cost a lot.

Everything can be seen to be with care, and value is secondary.

Ran Yan fiddled with Chinese medicine in the pharmacy, and more than an hour passed unconsciously, until Xiao Song's tall figure appeared at the door. Ran Yan looked at his plump and handsome face and showed a light smile, "It's bothered." ”

Xiao Song didn't see Ran Yan when he was the happiest, but even such a smile and thanks were enough.

Outside, the snow was blowing and had accumulated more than an inch on the ground.

The two of them held an umbrella together and walked in front.

Evening Green followed behind him with an umbrella. Xiao Song was draped in a black coat, with a circle of black raccoon dog hair at the neckline, his back was straight, the umbrella in his hand was almost on Ran Yan's head, half of his shoulders were outside, and a lot of snow had fallen on it. Ran Yan wore a warm apricot-colored cape, and her hat wore a circle of white rabbit fur.

Wan Lu remembered that his own lady was particularly happy when she wore it, if you use Liu Qingsong's words to describe it, it was a Lori with a serious expression who seemed to despise everything. Ran Yan had a poker face, and was completely stunned by this cute outfit.

Xiao Song lowered his eyes and looked at her appearance, he really couldn't help but want to laugh, but when he saw Ran Yan's black face, he couldn't help but laugh, Ran Yan glared at him and said hatefully, "I can't help but laugh, be careful to suffocate you"

After speaking, Ran Yan also glanced back at Wanlu. In the morning, Wanlu tried her best to encourage her to wear this, saying that Xiao Langjun would like it when she saw it, and after hesitation, she still chose this cloak, and the result was ...... I'm finally being ridiculed

"Ah Yan, this cloak is very good." Xiao Song really thinks it's cute and interesting.

Ran Yan said angrily, "Don't comfort me, and I don't have any sincerity." "Her life of wisdom was ruined.

Xiao Song finally couldn't help laughing, and the hearty laughter startled the birds that were looking for food on the ground fluttered.

Wan Lu watched her lady awkwardly being helped into the carriage by Xiao Song, and suddenly a sense of peace was born in her heart, she sighed in her heart, maybe the lady has suffered for so many years, and finally the bitterness has come......

Wanlu put away the umbrella, said goodbye to Xiao Song, and quickly boarded the carriage.

There is a lot of snow in Chang'an this year, and the next one will be almost every few days. The carriage couldn't go too fast on the road, so Xiao Songte came back an hour early to see if Ran Yan had returned home.

There are only seven or eight days away from the New Year's Pass, although the snow is falling, there are a lot of pedestrians outside, and the streets between Dongshi and Pingkangfang are full of cars and horses, and there is an endless stream, and you can already feel the strong atmosphere of the New Year.

The Ran Mansion was also very lively, Rong Qian began to lead people to clean the house, and it was busy for a while, and everyone was not allowed to be idle. Ran Yan looked at it, and was also infected by this cheerful atmosphere, and many troubled things were also put aside.

Originally, there were only seven or eight days before the end of the year, if Ran Meiyu was sent back to Suzhou, she would inevitably have to spend the New Year on the way to the road, although Ran Pingyu also heard that she colluded with outsiders and trapped Ran Yunsheng and Ran Yan in danger, but this seemed that their family was not generous enough, and the people in the clan could not necessarily understand. So I want to delay until the end of the New Year and then send her back. Who knew that as soon as Ran Meiyu heard that she would have to wait for the end of the New Year, she cried and made trouble, and even tried to hang herself.

Ran Pingyu had no choice, so he wrote a letter to explain the situation, and then sent more than ten guards to let her return to Suzhou with Ge Lan and his party.

Ran Meiyu embarked on the journey home full of hope, she wanted to escape from Ran Yan and get as far away as possible, but she forgot that the person who really wanted her life was not Ran Yan, but the blue-clothed maid who returned to Suzhou with her, who was as quiet as air.

The work of restoring his appearance has been completed, and Ran Yan does not need to go to Xiao Song's mansion, so he is idle.

Wan Lu and Xing Niang commanded the maids and maids to also start cleaning and Yaju, Ran Yan was originally sitting on the seat, but because of the obstacle, she stood in the corner again, and finally let Xing Niang "rush" to the center of the house.

She was in the way here, and wanted to help with something, and as soon as she bent down to pick up the rag, a maid came up and respectfully took it, and asked her where she hadn't wiped it clean.

Therefore, Ms. Ran, a generation of forensic doctors, has completely become an ornament in the house.

The house is being cleaned up and down, and even the garden is being pruned and cleaned without exception, and Ran Yan is in the same situation wherever he goes.

"Lady, the slave saw that Dr. Liu was coming." Wan Lu walked past Ran Yan with a basin of water and said casually.

Ran Yan stepped aside and asked, "What is he doing here?" ”

A few days ago, I had already done a check-up on those people with qi diseases, and Liu Qingsong shouldn't have come to look for her.

Wan Lu turned around and said with a gossipy smile, "I heard that I came to send a tight spell to Twenty Niang." ”

"Huh? Inhibitions? Ran Yan secretly wondered, recalling what dynasty wrote that "Journey to the West"? Could it be that the Tang Dynasty existed? Or is Liu Qingsong telling the story again......

"Dr. Liu sent a story to Twenty Niang a few days ago, it is about the story of a monkey, I heard that it can be touching, Twenty Niang cried again and again, and lent the book to the maid next to her, but unfortunately the slave is not very literate, otherwise I want to borrow it to see...... Do you want to take a look? Evening Green asked as she wiped the table hard.

Ran Yan groaned for a while, thinking that it must be the same "Journey to the West", she really didn't remember any particularly tear-jerking scenes in Journey to the West.

"I'll go find Ah Yun." Ran Yan took a step, but was stopped by the evening green.

Wanlu was helpless, she only now found that her lady was really puzzled, "Lady, Dr. Liu is talking to Twenty Niang, if you go, they will be embarrassed." ”

Ran Yan shook his head, feeling that what Wan Lu said made sense, so he could only continue to wander around the house idlely. When you're bored, think about the case.

Now the robbery can basically be ruled out, because there are too many secrets between the people who traveled together, and they are handled so well that there are almost no flaws to be found, and it is more inclined to be a premeditated murder.

Dou Chengfeng is the concubine of the Dou family in Chang'an, He Yan is a scholar from a poor family, has no fame, and there is an unidentified Yulang, their identities are almost the same, but how did they get mixed up with Chai Xuanyi?

What's even more strange is that the mother and daughter who had an affair with Dou Chengfeng.

The appearance of these circumstances undoubtedly weakened the suspicion of the county lord of Wenxi, because as the clues were exposed little by little, it was originally speculated that her motive for killing could not be established.

Keeping her suspicions for the time being, now the middle-aged woman, Dou Chengfeng, He Yan, Yu Lang and even Chai Xuanyi may be the murderer.

In fact, the reason why this case is taken seriously is, in the final analysis, because the person who was attacked was the husband of the county lord of Wenxi, otherwise it was just a few people with a low status, even if it became an unsolved case, they would not be stabbed to the saint.

In this case, Chai Xuanyi was just injured by mistake? Or was the murderer primarily directed at him?

How did the maid who fell down the mountain together die? Thrown to death?

Ran Yan frowned slightly, remembering the corpse of the maidservant, she had never examined it. She was a forensic doctor, not a professional detective, and without bones, her train of thought was naturally trapped.

Ran Yan thought about it, so he planned to order someone to send a letter to Xiao Song to see if he needed to examine the body of the maid again.

As soon as he walked to the door, Ran Yan saw Rong Qian coming towards him.

She still looks very hearty and affinity, but this time the smile on her face is a little suspicious, "Seventeen Niang." ”

As soon as Ran Yan saw her like this, she decisively prepared mentally and listened to her tell about the ten gossips that Chang'an had to say, even though every time these ten gossips were like a weekly magazine, they were changed every few days.

"I was just tidying up with a few little girls in the West Garden, and I accidentally heard a beautiful thing." Rong Qian's eyebrows and eyes were full of smiles.

Ran Yan invited her into the house to sit. The house was almost tidyed, but there were still maids and maidservants doing the final cleaning. Rong Qian didn't avoid people, and said with a smile, "I see, our family's happy event is approaching." Oops, that Dr. Liu seems to be an ordinary person, who knows that when he talks about love, it will move our Ah Yun to tears. ”

"What did he say?" Ran Yan didn't believe that anything serious could come out of that lewd guy's mouth.

Rong Qian said, "I only heard a few sentences, one of which was: Five hundred years ago, I was a free monkey, and five hundred years later, I am willing to put on a tight spell for you...... Huh? Have you read a book of sunrise some time ago? It's called "Mythology". ”

Ran Yangang's hand that was about to serve tea paused, her expression was a little embarrassed, there was a drama she had watched, and it had nothing to do with monkeys, could this Liu Qingsong be more nonsense?

And according to her rational speculation, most of that sentence was also pulled by Liu Qingsong from that book, and asked at the moment, "What about Ah Yun?" Answer him like that? ”

"How can it be, but I don't think Ah Yun has any objections...... Rong Qian thought for a moment and said with a smile, "Doctor Liu said that Old Lady Xiao will be able to go to Chang'an today, and if Ah Yun agrees, just ask the old lady to help propose marriage, and he will marry." ”

Ran Yan smiled, Liu Qingsong didn't know whether it was true or joking, but the word "marry" was really suitable. Mrs. Xiao has always raised him as a lady, and maybe she really wants to marry him off.
