Chapter 748: Interrogation in the Fuzhong

Long Zihan pointed to the cut fabric on the bed and asked, "Who are the clothes on the bed made for?"

Xiaoxi sighed and said sadly: "That's what the eldest lady made for the eldest young master." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

Long Zihan asked puzzledly: "With the conditions of the Geng family, do you still have to make the clothes by the master?"

"No matter how strong the eldest wife is, no matter how high her status is, she is also a mother. The eldest young master is about to be born, and the eldest lady hopes that the eldest young master can wear the new clothes she made for him, and also hopes that the eldest young master can understand his mother's heart and understand something in the future. ”

Long Zihan narrowed his eyes slightly, and said with a little suspicion: "You know a lot. ”

Xiaoxi's face stiffened slightly, and said, "This is what the eldest lady told me and Jade two days ago, not that I made it up." ”

Long Zihan nodded, believing it.

Then, he asked again: "I see that your eldest lady has prepared silver buttons for the clothes made by the eldest young master, and the eldest lady's own clothes are also silver buttons, and the Geng family prefers silver?"

"The Geng family's business is mainly gold and silver, so all the buttons of the masters' clothes are silver. The first is to show the identity, and the second is to let outsiders see that the Geng family's silver is all the best and pure......"

"I see. "It's about doing business and advertising.

Long Zihan asked, "How is the eldest lady?"

Xiaoxi praised without hesitation: "Our eldest wife is well-governed, gentle and kind, Bing Xue is smart and has a bodhisattva heart. ”

Long Zihan asked with some surprise, "Have you ever read?"

Xiaoxi nodded and said, "I've read it for a few years." ”

No wonder you don't run out of words when you praise people.

Long Zihan asked again: "What is the relationship between the other aunts and the second master?"

Xiaoxi replied: "On the surface, it looks okay, but ...... You also know that people's hearts are separated from their stomachs, and people in this big family are staring at the position of the master. ”

Long Zihan asked again: "Why has your family always been the head of the eldest wife's family? The eldest young master should not be young, right?"

"Originally, last year, the eldest young master was supposed to marry Ma Rongrong, the daughter of the Ma family who had a marriage contract with him, and then sit on the throne of the head of the family. However, the daughter of the Ma family failed to come back last year, and she came back this year but she didn't get married. The Ma family can't control that, so they can only let Miss Ma be. So, the matter dragged on. ”

Ma Rongrong? He also seems to know a young lady who is also Ma Rongrong. I don't know if it's the same person as Ma Rongrong in Xiaoxi's mouth.

Long Zihan asked puzzledly: "Why do you want to marry the daughter of the Ma family before you take charge of the Geng Mansion?"

Xiaoxi hesitated for a moment and replied: "Our lord has a dying word, and only by marrying Ma Rongrong, the daughter of the Ma family, can he become the head of the family smoothly." ”

Long Zihan frowned and asked, "Oh, so strange?"

Xiaoxi nodded and said, "The whole mansion knows about this matter, and no one is not curious about this matter." However, I don't know if the masters don't know, or don't say it, this matter has been pressed for many years, and it has spread all over the house, and they are all very curious. ”

To be honest, Long Zihan was also very curious.

I only heard Xiaoxi continue: "Actually, the eldest young master didn't want to marry Miss Ma who had been married to him since he was a child. But the eldest lady refused to do anything, and even forced her to die, insisting on forcing the eldest young master to propose marriage. Unexpectedly, the eldest young master agreed, but Miss Ma refused. ”

Long Zihan asked, "So, they didn't marry by fingertips, but made a marriage contract since childhood?"

Seeing Xiaoxi nodding, Long Zihan asked, "How young was that?"

Xiaoxi said uncertainly: "It should be when the eldest young master is four or five years old......

Long Zihan asked again: "Since there is a marriage contract, then the elders of the Ma family will let Miss Ma be like this?"

Xiaoxi sighed and said, "The young lady of the Ma family has been away from Shanghai for many years, and she has not been disciplined by Master Ma and Mrs. Ma at all, and after the old lady of the Ma family died, there was no one who could calm her." It is said that ......"

Long Zihan asked, "What are you talking about?"

Xiaoxi replied: "It is said that he is also a wrongdoer, a debt collector. ”

Long Zihan nodded, and after expressing his understanding, he asked again: "Your eldest wife, have you been abnormal lately?" Or, are there anything different from the ordinary in the other rooms?"

Xiaoxi shook her head: "No!"

Long Zihan looked outside, a girl with a veil pushed the man in a wheelchair, looking at the room with a sad expression.

The man in the wheelchair was expressionless and didn't seem to feel much about everything.

"Tell me about the housekeeper. ”

Xiaoxi asked inexplicably, "Butler, what does the butler have to say?"

"Tell me about the relationship between the housekeeper and the rooms, and how long you've been here, etc., just tell me what you know. ”

Xiaoxi nodded and said, "The housekeeper is very strict with us, but he treats the masters with respect. He is the oldest person in the mansion, and before the lord died, he was the account office in the mansion. After the death of the old man, the eldest lady was lonely, so she asked the housekeeper to take care of the mansion and let the housekeeper's son do the accounting room. ”

"Why does the eldest lady trust the housekeeper so much?"

Xiaoxi replied: "We also asked, but the eldest lady only said, 'No suspicion is used to use people'." As for the rest, I don't know much either. ”

Long Zihan nodded and asked, "How about the second master and that young lady?"

"The second master and the fifth lady are very low-key, rarely go out of their own yard, and rarely talk to outsiders. The two of them lived in a courtyard, and there were two servants in the courtyard, and they looked a little lonely. ”

Long Zihan asked, "Is it because of the deduction?"

Xiaoxi shook his head and said, "In this mansion, the eldest lady is especially good to them." Because of the pity and distress of Miss Five, the eldest lady often sent her some extra food, and the degree was never less than theirs. I've heard some old people say that they weren't like this before, that they became what they are today after they had been hit. ”

Long Zihan asked again: "What happened to the legs of the second master, the appearance of the fifth young lady, and the wife and children of the second master?"

Xiaoxi replied honestly: "Then I don't know, I'm also later." But I also asked, and I only heard that the second master's family met the bandits outside. ”

"Last question, when you came or after you left, did the eldest lady say anything to eat?"

He had just seen that the deceased had vomit, which had apparently not been digested. If it was last night's meal, it was impossible to have not digested it before dying.

That is to say, the deceased Ling Yushuang only had vomiting symptoms after Xiaoxi left, after he ate something, and before he died.

Xiaoxi shook his head and said, "No." I remember telling my wife when I was leaving, she would call us if she was hungry, and she nodded. Who knows, when I left, people were fine, and when I went to call people for dinner in the morning, people ......" (To be continued.) )
