The woman looked at the knife in Ah Hu's hand, shook her head and said, "I don't recognize that person, it was the leper who pulled the thread for me, and the man promised to give us a hundred taels of silver, so that we could tie up Doctor Gu there." ”

"He rented that house too."

Ah Hu asked impatiently, "Who is the leper?" ”

The mother-in-law said: "It's just a gangster on the street." ”

"He used to rest at the City God Temple in the west of the city."

Ah Hu asked the leper about his appearance again, and then got up and went to the west of the city.

Jiang Youzhi sent Du Ruo out to buy some food and came back.

He saw Gu Yunjiao sitting in the hall, her face was pale, and her whole person seemed to have lost her soul.

He just wanted to hold her in his arms and comfort her, but he could only just look at her.

He walked over and pulled Gu Yunjiao into the courtyard, sat down at the table, "Eat something first." ”

There was porridge, buns, and some side dishes on the table.

Gu Yunjiao shook her head, "I can't eat it." ”

Jiang Youzhi said softly: "Eat some." ”

Gu Yunjiao slowly picked up the spoon and barely ate a few mouthfuls of porridge.

After eating most of the bowl of porridge, as soon as I put down the spoon, my aunt came over with swollen eyes, "Mei'er is here, I'm afraid I still have to wear clothes for the funeral." ”

Gu Mei really doesn't have any decent clothes now, and besides, those who have passed away have to change into new clothes according to custom.

Gu Yunjiao put down the spoon and said slowly: "I still have a newly made clothes there, I'll go and get it." ”

Lin Shuo caught the car and accompanied Gu Yunjiao home with Jiang Youzhi.

Gu Yunjiao took out the newly made clothes from the house, came out to the front yard, and woke up Gu Chuan, who had already slept.

Gu Chuan was confused and didn't know what was going on.

Gu Yunjiao only said softly: "The eldest sister is gone, on my aunt's side, you come with me and give her a ride." ”

Gu Chuan was dressed in a daze, and suddenly asked Gu Yunjiao, "What does it mean to be gone?" ”

He knew this in his heart, but at the moment he was a little unsure.

Gu Yunjiao pursed her lips, "It's just that the eldest sister is no longer there." ”

"She was killed to save me."

"Otherwise, I might be the one who died today."

Gu Chuan looked at Gu Yunjiao in surprise, but he didn't say anything, and he didn't have any expression, just dressed and followed Gu Yunjiao out.

Lin Shuo drove the carriage, and Jiang Youzhi accompanied the sister and brother to the south of the city.

At this time, it was already late, and the neighbors who were watching the excitement also dispersed.

The door of the Shen family was open, and it was deserted.

Gu Chuan was led by Gu Yunjiao to the hall, and when he saw Gu Mei lying on the ground, he suddenly felt that his mind was blank.

Before, when she was embarrassed, he longed for her to die.

But I don't know why, she is really dead now, but he wants her to be alive.

He still felt ashamed of her and didn't want to see her, but he wanted her to live well somewhere.

Gu Chuan didn't cry, but just looked at Gu Mei in a daze for a long time.

Ah Hu went for a long time before returning, and when he came back, he shook his head, "I looked near the City God Temple, but I didn't see that leper." ”

Jiang Youzhi said in a deep voice, "Then I'll talk about it after reporting to the official tomorrow morning." ”

Everyone kept watch all night, and in the morning Ah Hu went out for a trip, and then came over with a few catchers.

Catch quickly come in, first let the servant check Gu Mei's wound, and the knife was finally pulled out as physical evidence.

asked Jiang Youzhi and Gu Yunjiao about the situation at that time.

"So, you have heard the voice of the main envoy, think about it, could it be an acquaintance?" ”
