Chapter 21: Suspicious Persons
My mother-in-law's medicine smeared and scratched, the scar was gone, and the whole neck and shoulders were red and rashed, like a toad.
Don't know don't know!
I don't believe he doesn't know.
As it turned out, I guessed right.
Officials and eyewitnesses testified that the table fell apart because there were too many plates, and that they slapped the table or even stepped on it with their fists and feet while eating.
They were not convinced.
The table in my inn has a strong bearing capacity, and it will not be damaged by putting too many tableware, and my three 170-pound buddies stand on it without damage.
The reason is understood, and what to do next is Lu Cheng's business.
It was late afternoon.
The location is still a warm inn.
The woman came over to apologize to me and just left.
The man who is in the medicinal herb business is here again.
It seems that Lu Cheng's method is not light or heavy, but it is convincing, he said that he remembered that a man he knew could cure incurable diseases, but in his hometown, it was two hundred miles back and forth.
I didn't mention it from far and near, so I said it casually, and he actually took it seriously, and he said it in great detail.
But what you see, he actually doesn't know Na Langzhong, he memorized it, memorized it for an hour, there are not many words, but if it is like, you see that he performed well, I believe it if I don't know.
I pillowed on Lu Shang's arm and told him about it.
The words of outsiders cannot be believed.
Why don't you send someone to find out first?
What are you asking, is she afraid that her eldest brother will punish her and stammer you, you can't hear it?
I heard it, but he scolded me, didn't it prove to be true, try it, and there was no loss.
You don't believe in him or your husband, do you?
The medicine my mother gave me didn't work, look at my neck.
If you don't go to see Langzhong, Langzhong here can't be cured? Go that far.
I want to get rid of the scars.
I'll figure it out, you don't have to think about what you want, okay?
Ahhh
Lu Shang frowned and looked at me: Wen Guan, you go to heaven.
If you don't accompany me, I'll go by myself.
I'll let them look into it first.
Good. I finally smiled.
There is really this Langzhong, and this Langzhong also came, for fear that my mother-in-law would be unhappy, so I chose to meet in a single room on the third floor of the inn.
Lu Shang and I were shocked when we saw this person.
I don't know if you're surprised.
This is the girl.
It turned out that her name was Eucommia.
She was slightly fatter than she was back then, and her makeup was not thick or light.
I had the standard smile of the shopkeeper: Du Langzhong, please take a seat.
Lu Shang: Why did Du Langzhong come here in person, let's go there.
I just came back to see it, and I saved money to hire a carriage, hahaha!
I didn't like her laughter.
I'll look at your scar.
Lu Shang: Wait a minute.
You noticed, he saw a small wound in the outer corner of Eucommia's left eye, and a scratch on Eucommia's medical suitcase.
Du Zhong had already come, and he was a little overwhelmed by what he said.
What's wrong?
You washed your neck, right?
My neck is white and clean. I bared my neck for her to see.
He's nervous!
It's the kind of nervousness I show my neck to the executioner!
You must have doubted it, the most suspicious thing is that she cleaned the room cleanly, if she is not the real murderer, but also an accomplice, she wants to destroy the evidence, so that Lu Cheng can't find any clues.
However, the clues are also the most easily ignored details of the real murderer.
Lu Cheng found a fragment of the blade.
The head catcher searched Du Zhong's house, but did not find the knife, and did not learn from the inquiry. Eucommia wasn't lying.
Although Eucommia is suspicious, some cases are eventually solved, and the real suspect is often unexpected, and the least likely is that the person who was ignored, hiding around, peeping, and laughing at you and me.
Therefore, Du Zhong, who has a motive to kill, yes or no, you have to rely on your keen eyes to observe carefully.
Du Langzhong, can you find a way to help my wife remove the pimple first?
Du Zhong looked at it and said: Scar removal and pimple are not a problem, the question is whether you can persevere.
Yes, as long as I have a neck as beautiful as a swan, I can overcome any difficulty.
Then, heal the pimple first. Did the three young grandmothers eat something allergic or apply something?
I said that I had smeared the scar removal medicine, but I didn't say that my mother-in-law gave it to me.
Have you brought it, I'll take a look.
I forgot.
If you don't bring it, I can't judge how to use the medicine, the third young grandmother will bring it next time, but it's better to hurry, I'll stay here for a few days.
Lu Shang, you go back and get it.
I don't know where you put it.
Then I'll go back myself.
The shopkeeper, the guests on the first floor, please come over.
I opened the door and asked Li Cheng: What guest?
Not very well dressed.
Is it male or female?
Man. He says he knows you.
There are more people who know me. Thinking so, I walked up the stairs on the second floor and saw Li Bei.
He also saw me and smiled at me, I walked over, and he stood up: Shopkeeper Wen, long time no see.
It's really two people, both talking like this.
Then he said behind me: Brother Lu, you are also here.
Brother Li Xian came to stay in the hotel or did he hit the tip?
I saw Du Langzhong coming, so I followed, can you ask Du Langzhong to heal Rui Rui first.
What happened to Rui Rui?
It was Autumn that asked him.
If you look at his expression, you can tell how nervous he is.
Chilblains flare-up.
I said: Du Langzhong is on the third floor, Qiuyu, you can go and invite it.
Lu Shang: I'll go and please, Qiuyu, you go and get busy.
I don't know why Lu Shang is nervous, as if he is particularly afraid of them meeting.
Qiu Yu's future lady had a chilblain attack, could Lu Shang stop it? Besides, he didn't say anything.
Just now, what you saw, Du Zhong was looking at us through the crack in the door, and you still feel creepy.
At this moment, she had already walked over, and her eyes were still very nervous when she looked at Qiu Yu, just like seeing Qiu Yue.
I don't know if it's because I remember my daughter being kidnapped or because of ......
Du Langzhong, my daughter's chilblains have flares up again, please prescribe some medicine to the child, the child can't help but scratch, it's all scratched.
Still the same as before? Without waiting for Li Bei to answer, he said: I'll go with you to have a look.
Then it's troublesome for Du Langzhong.
No hassle, as it should.
Li Bei is also suspicious, you have already felt this, although he didn't dare to let Zhang Zhenzhen know that he killed livestock, but can it prove that he didn't kill anyone?
Then, do you guess what Li Bei and Du Zhong are going to conspire to?
But what you see from your perspective.
You guessed it wrong.
Rui Rui does have chilblains.
Li Bei and Du Zhong, except for the doctor-patient relationship, have no other contacts.
I'm going to see Rui Rui.
It's rare that Lu Shang doesn't have to go far today, just help me when he comes, it's almost time, so I have time to eat, I don't know if it's lunch or dinner, I have to eat quickly, otherwise I can only eat supper.
I fried too many chili peppers and he counted them down, and I was humbly accepting it, and Qiu Yu came over to say this to us.
Seeing Qiu Yu, Lu Shang changed his smile: Worried about Rui Rui. Have you thought about choosing Rui Rui as a lady?
How do you say this again?
Lu Shang stood up and hugged him and pinched his shoulder: It just so happens that Dad is on the way, so I'll go with you.
What do you do? I asked.
My father-in-law asked me to help buy donkey skin, let's also buy some and boil donkey glue.
What did my dad buy donkey skins for?
My family is in the leather business, but they never use donkey skins.
Your father has a lot of women, so it must be useful.
I look at him with the eyes with which you dare to say that I cut off your tongue.
He always laughed at my father for marrying three aunts, and compared my father-in-law to my father. Indeed, with my mother-in-law's character, my father-in-law does not dare to marry any of them, this, I really hope that my mother can learn from my mother-in-law, not so cowardly, thanks to the three aunts who respect her very much, there are no chickens and dogs in my father's backyard.
Lu Shang got into the carriage and told me not to eat spicy, not to scratch, not to accept the medicine from my mother-in-law, to listen to Du Langzhong's words, to get rid of the rash as soon as possible, the scar is not important, that thing is not painful or itchy.
I took his words to heart and would do them, except for rejecting my mother-in-law.
Unconsciously, two days have passed, Qiu Yu and Du Zhong came back in the same carriage, Qiu Yu got out of the car and told me that Lu Shang sent donkey skins to my mother's family.
Lu Shang had to come back from lunch when he went, and I was a little worried that he drank too much and said that my father had a lot of women and would be beaten.
Mother, Du Langzhong is talking to you.
You heard, Du Langzhong asked me if I had brought the medicine I smeared.
I stayed up all night studying new dishes for the past two days, and I didn't taste them, and my neck didn't hurt or itch, and I even forgot that there were scars, so I forgot about it.
I'm really sorry, so I'll go home and get it.
I'm running fast, I'll go back and get it.
It's okay, thank you son.
I didn't expect that my white, handsome and lovely son would turn red on the left side of his face when he came back!
Who hit you? Tell me.
Grandmother.
Qiu Yu lay on my shoulder and cried bitterly, extremely aggrieved.
The reason why my mother-in-law beat him is what you see.
He went out with the medicine bottle, and my mother-in-law came over and asked him why he took it, and he told the truth, so he was slapped in the face and accused him of being nosy.
Excessively!
Why did she beat my son?
Be good, don't cry, my mother went home to find her and said it well, and asked her to apologize to you.
No, no need, the elders beat the juniors, there is no need to apologize, there are only grandsons who have done wrong, and grandmothers who have not made mistakes.
She didn't treat you as a grandson.
In front of outsiders, I didn't want to say more, so I told the guy to bring ice cubes to cold compress, and he said that it was okay after a while, and took out the medicine bottle that he had "sacrificed" to keep.
Du Zhong said that I wiped the allergy with what was in it, and I can't remember it, I only remember how to use the medicine she prescribed.
Halfway through, Lu Shang came to the inn with no smell of alcohol on his body.
You didn't drink with my dad?
I gave the donkey skin and left, and I haven't eaten anything.
I'm going to cook the dumplings for you.
When I came back, Qiu Yu was also there, and he had just cried, I guessed that Lu Shang asked his face, and he said it.
Me: Xiaoyu, how many will you eat?
What stuffing.
Chicken potatoes.
Then Qiu Yu took one and ate it with his hand, with a very strange expression, and didn't eat the second one.
Mother cooks other stuffing for you? What kind of stuffing do you want to eat?
I ate it at noon.
Well, you stay with your father.
I didn't have time to wipe it at the inn, and I didn't think about it until I lay down, and pushed Lu Shang to get him up.
What's up?
I want to pee.
When I got out of bed, he couldn't wait to lie down and go back to sleep.
But I applied the medicine, and he came to help.
I gave him the medicine bottle and cotton swab: didn't you fall asleep, how to get up.
Are you afraid that I will say that you forgot to apply the medicine?
He sat across from me, looking serious and handsome.
This medicine smells very strong, so don't go to the inn yet.
Tomorrow I will try a new dish, I can't go there.
I'll go and get the results back for you.
You don't boil donkey glue?
The donkey skin has not been processed yet, and if it can't be boiled one day, the husband must not help his wife first. He yawned: wipe it and go to sleep.
