Chapter 129: Finding Out the Evildoer
Here, Boss Wang saw that Li Li Fawei was going to be punished, and he was a good man who didn't suffer the loss in front of him, so he recruited all of them.
"My lord, it was a housekeeper who found me, this housekeeper said, his hostess is very powerful, but not childbearing, very depressed, his lord is looking for a room, it is the second grandmother, the stomach is angry, gave birth to a son, the lord is happy, the next step may be right, the grandmother is anxious, just want to get rid of the thorn in the eye, think about it, just want to contact a little arsenic through the housekeeper, the housekeeper and I are distant relatives, as long as there is money to earn, no one is afraid of silver biting, I agreed to come down. However, I only provided lethal drugs and knew nothing else. Boss Wang said.
"Then what happened when he found the lotus root powder in the stomach of the deceased?" Li Li asked.
"Lord Qiyu, the little one really doesn't know, the little one provides lethal drugs is true, and the others don't know anything. The steward took the arsenic from the little one, gave him the silver, and warned the little one not to reveal it to anyone, and the little one kept his mouth shut, and as for the lotus root powder, the little one did not know. Boss Wang said.
"You don't know? Is there a clue? Li Li asked.
"I'm afraid only the little relatives and housekeepers know about this. Because there are some things that the housekeeper will not say to the little one, if he does, it will be bad for him and bad for the big grandmother. Boss Wang said.
"Okay, go find the housekeeper. As for you, don't leave in a panic for the time being, when you finish signing, you have to cooperate with the official, follow the message, and you are not allowed to leave Dengcheng without the permission of the official. If necessary, the official will send someone to pick you up and take you to Xiangyang, do you hear clearly? Li Li said.
"Listen clearly, adults, without permission, the small ones will never go out, nor will they run away, and if they are found to have violated the above regulations, they are willing to accept the aggravated punishment. Adults just rest assured, small business, integrity first, never break your word! Boss Wang said.
"That's good!" Li Li said.
Then bid farewell to Jin Shan and returned to Xiangyang County.
As soon as he sat down, he asked people to arrest the housekeeper and come to the county government for questioning.
"You say, who made the lotus root noodle soup?" Li Li asked, straight to the point.
"It's the cook." The housekeeper said.
"Someone, get the cook. Butler, if you lie, you don't want to be a butler for the rest of your life. You're involved in a murder case, do you understand? Li Li said.
"Clearly, the little ones don't dare to lie, everything they say is true, there are no lies, sometimes they are not clear and comprehensive enough, but they are definitely not lies." The housekeeper said.
The catcher quickly received the order and went to arrest people, and soon, the cook was caught in the county office.
After a while, the master and grandmother were a little panicked, and if they caught someone again, the people in the family were almost caught. Without a housekeeper, the family's expenses and income will be affected, and without a cook, eating will be a problem, so it is better to do it yourself.
You have to know now, why bother in the first place? I should have learned cooking skills in the first place, in case the chef died or had something to do temporarily, I could roll up my sleeves and do it, so that I wouldn't run out of food.
The cook has arrived.
"Who is the one who kneels?"
"Cooking."
"Did you make the lotus root soup that your second grandmother drank?" Li Li asked.
"Yes, sir."
"Who gave the materials?"
"Lord Qiqi, it was sent by the housekeeper." The cook said.
"Butler, isn't that the case?"
When the housekeeper saw this, he knew that he couldn't hide it, so he said, "Yes, my lord, the little one sent the little six sons to send it over." β
"Is Xiao Liuzi a cook guy?" Li Li said.
"Yes, my lord, it's a cook, a chorre in the kitchen." The butler said.
"It means that Xiao Liuzi gave the lotus root powder to the cook, and the cook made the lotus root soup, and then gave it to the second grandmother to drink, right?" Li Li asked.
"Yes, sir." The butler said.
"Is Little Liuzi here?" Li Li asked.
Everyone looked around, looked at each other, the cook's eyes were sharp, and they immediately saw a young man probing his brain in the crowd, and the cook shouted: "Little Liuzi, come in." β
As soon as Li Li saw it, a young man crept in, saw Li Li, immediately knelt down, and said, "Little one bows to my lord!" β
"Who is the one who kneels?"
"The villain is a little six. The cook, the guy in the kitchen. Xiao Liuzi said.
"Oh, why didn't you come uninvited?" Li Li asked.
"Grandma sent me. The small one was originally choosing vegetables to prepare for cooking, and the small one also knew a little bit of cooking skills, and was with the master all the year round, busy in the kitchen, how much would order, and it would be natural to see more and do more. Xiao Liuzi said.
After Xiao Liuzi finished speaking, Li Li immediately understood.
This is because the eldest grandmother is not at ease, so she sent someone to monitor and monitor, which is to prolong her eyes and ears, see far, hear clearly, and see the progress of the case.
"Little Liuzi, tell me, what have you done?" Li Li asked.
"Adults, the little ones are just helping the cook, they do all the work, they are doing chores, and there are many things in the kitchen, either busy with this or that. On that day, it was the supervisor who shouted that the second grandmother wanted to drink lotus root soup, because she said that there was no taste in her mouth, she couldn't eat salty, spicy, hard, and soft, so she shouted to eat lotus root soup. The small one took the lotus root powder from the housekeeper, handed it directly to the chef, explained it to the chef, and the chef began to boil the soup. Xiao Liuzi said.
"Is the pot where the lotus soup is boiled still there? What about lotus root soup? Is it still there? Li Li asked.
"Master, the lotus root soup is still there, after the accident, in order to cooperate with the investigation, the small one left a hand, so he left some of the lotus root soup pot and lotus root soup powder, worried that there would be problems, and the small one also understood, leaving these physical evidence, which can prove that the small one is innocent, after all, people's hearts are complicated, and if they don't do well, they will be involved in disputes." The cook said.
"Well, you're smart. Come on, make a hard trip, and go with the cook to find lotus root flour, unused lotus root soup and pot for boiling lotus root soup. Li Li said.
He went with the officials, and returned after a while, retrieving the lotus root powder, the remaining lotus root soup, and the pot.
Then a cat and a dog were caught and the cat was given lotus root powder, and the cat died quickly. Let the dog eat the rest of the lotus root soup, and the dog immediately stretched out his legs and stared at him and lost his breath.
Li Li was very surprised when he saw it, everyone looked at it, they were stunned, and then they saw that the chef was already so frightened that he was paralyzed on the ground, like a boiled noodle, and he couldn't get hard anymore. The housekeeper's face was even more colorful, mostly red, beads of sweat the size of beans, rolling to the ground, and fine beads of sweat on his forehead and head, which quickly gathered and flowed down his cheeks. Not to mention the back, the sweat has long soaked through the clothes.
"Come on, tie up the housekeeper!" Li Li commanded.
The official next to him stepped forward and tied up the housekeeper with five flowers, as strong as a zongzi, and he couldn't escape anymore.
"Adult, these are not made of small ones, this lotus root flour is given to the small by the big grandmother, let the small one be given to the little six sons, and the little six sons will be handed over to the cook, and it has nothing to do with the small ones!" The butler argued.
"Nonsense! Grandma is a woman, how can she go out to buy lotus root powder? It seems that you don't want to say anything if you don't move the punishment. Come! Beat! Li Li said.
"Adult, adult, spare your life, it was the big grandmother who instructed the little one to do it." The butler pleaded.
"How?"
"The big grandmother spends money on the little ones to buy arsenic and lotus root powder. Arsenic was bought by a small distant relative, he was not local, in Dengcheng, and the lotus root flour was bought by the maid in the shop outside, in order to avoid suspicion. She mixed the lotus root powder and arsenic that the maid bought, and when the maid and the little one were not present, after mixing, the big grandmother let the little one take the lotus root powder and arsenic mixture, and handed it to the little six sons, and entrusted the little six sons, and handed the arsenic lotus root powder mixture to the cook, let the cook boil it into lotus root soup, and then handed it over to the second grandmother to drink by the orchid flowers. The little one knows what is wrong and is willing to accept punishment. The butler said.
"Okay, come, go, lock up the grandmother and take it to the court. The facts of the case are already clear, and the culprit is the grandmother. Acquitted Orchid Flower. Li Li said.
The catcher quickly received the order to arrest people.
At this time, the eldest grandmother was like sitting on pins and needles, restless, like ants on a hot pot, there was a little movement outside, she was frightened, these people were taken away one after another, and her heart was uneasy.
After a while, I heard the crowd outside, the public rushed in, with iron chains, came in and asked who was the big grandmother, someone with sharp eyes, recognized it at once, caught a quick arrow step forward, the maids couldn't dodge, locked the big grandma and left, the big grandma didn't expect the matter to be revealed so quickly, her wishful thinking was wrong, she met the master, she had no power to resist.
The eldest grandmother was pulled out, everyone was scattered aside, and there were many people who secretly watched the excitement, and there were people inside and outside the mansion. The rich old man was also stunned, this time it's good, the eldest grandmother was arrested, the second grandmother died, and Orchid Flower was still in the cell, is this family scattered like this? My son is still young, so I don't have a mother! What a bitterness!
The so-called rich people also have unsatisfactory opponents, and all the rich families are probably distressed by material scarcity, and they have their own troubles with or without money.
The eldest grandmother looked back at the big house, her heart was cold, she knew that she would never come back, she glanced at the master, the master did not look at her, her face went elsewhere, this day the husband and wife were also fake, she thought, maybe she was too strong, and she always suffered as a result, she wanted to live a life of a master, but she became a prisoner, and the next thing was to face the beheading in the fall. This is inevitable. I originally wanted Orchid Flower to die, and when Orchid Flower died, there was no proof of death, the case was a headless case, and I couldn't see the light of day again, but I didn't expect that people were not as good as the sky, but I still couldn't count the sky, and I still lost to the sky, which was really God's will.
The idea is very good, but the result is sad, the problem is that I am arrogant, if I restrain a little and keep a low profile, I will not have these troubles, and I will not lose my head.
She could barely walk, and she was arrested and almost racked up to the court.
"Who is the one who kneels?"
"Big grandma."
"Bold Diaomin, what kind of grandmother are you?"
"The people's girls know their mistakes."
"It's good to know what you're wrong. Tell the truth, lest you be punished! Li Li said.
"My lord, the women of the people are deeply sinful, so they have no heirs." The big grandmother said.
"Don't talk nonsense. Everyone has sins, and few people know about it, and this is related to the heir, but as long as you confess your sins, abandon the evil and follow the good, and move the emperor, you can still get the heir, how do you do it? Li Li said.
"My lord, when the people's daughter saw that the second grandmother had a child and was a son, and she didn't have it, she was jealous and wanted to have it herself, but the lord didn't like the people's daughter, so he didn't give the people's daughter a chance." The big grandmother cried.
"You are the eldest grandmother, did the master marry you first or the second grandmother first?" Li Li asked.
"My lord, it's the daughter of the people who married first."
"That's it, you who married first, why didn't you conceive a child? Who is the problem? If it's your lord's problem, how can he have a child with the second grandmother? Li Li asked.
"Lord Qiyu, the second grandmother will be demagogic, as soon as she enters the mansion, the folk girl will be snubbed by the lord, and she has never had sex with the folk girl, so she has never been pregnant, and the blame for this should be on the second grandmother." The eldest grandmother said.
"How can this be true? You yourself married your lord first, you didn't coax him, didn't get his heart, but cooled his heart, he married the second room, you saw that the second room had it, and began to be jealous, so you had to design to harm her, at the same time, your eyeliner saw that the old man coveted the orchid flower, so you wanted to poison the second grandmother, and then blame others, denounce the orchid flower, and then arrested the county government and put him on death row, you bribed the servants and neighbors up and down, let them testify to you, and then you hit the top and bottom, so that the original Xiangyang County magistrate and the case-handling personnel can get your benefits, So this case ended hastily, anyway, someone died, someone went to jail, but you ended up clean and chic outside. Such a mindset is rare in the world. You can do it! Not ordinary people! It seems that you have a very good mentality and have a unique ability to see and recognize people. Your eyes can see through people's hearts and analyze people's personalities. You know that people die for money, birds die for food, as long as you are willing to spend money, there is nothing unfair. As a result, you become deluded and begin to sink deeper and deeper into the path of crime, and finally you can't extricate yourself and end up in a sad end. Li Li said.
"That's what my lord said. The folk girl understood, and now she understands that it turned out that the folk girl was too strong. Ignoring the head of the family, that is, the master is the master of the family, the folk girl is only a supporting role, not the protagonist, the end of overriding the lord's head must be tragic, the folk girl is a typical example, if there is an afterlife in the future, the folk girl is willing to continue to be a woman, come again, find her own position, be a good wife and mother, and become a model for others, instead of always thinking about destroying the enemy physically, but to defeat the opponent spiritually. The spirit is more important than the body. If the folk girl is known for her humility and gentleness, then many opportunities will not be missed, and the folk girl will not fall into such a field if she continues to live under one person and above the whole family. It's too late to regret now, and it's useless to regret your intestines, you only hate yourself for being too strong, and failure is in being strong. Heyβ" said the grandmother.
