Chapter 107: A Girl from the Capital

Because it was a young lady wearing silk and satin who died, the news soon spread throughout Baofu.

Zhang Yuanniang and Duoduo listened to the gossip in the morning market, and when they came back, they couldn't wait to tell it, Minghui was stunned: "Wu family? It can't be the eldest lady's maiden family. ”

Although Minghui has been in Baoding for a few years, she has lived in Guanli for most of her time, and she does not know about the various prefectures in Baoding, and there are only a few of them she knows, but there are households surnamed Wu.

Zhang Yuanniang hadn't even seen the eldest lady, let alone if it was that one, she said, "I don't know...... That's right, I heard people in the city say that the Wu family wants to do something, and if something like this happens, I don't know if this happy event can be done. ”

Ming squinted his eyes, happy event?

By the way, Lizhu is going to get married, and she is still married, and she is married to the fifteenth young master of the Chengen Mansion.

Minghui hurriedly called Wang An and asked him to inquire if it was the eldest lady's maiden family who had the accident, and what was going on)

In the jujube tree alley, Ming Ye let people clean the guest rooms early in the morning, and let people book a banquet in the Zhuangyuan Building, thought about it, and sent people to buy local products from Baoding Mansion for the purpose of soil instruments.

Tomorrow, the elders of the Huo family in the capital will come over to discuss marriage, and everything that should be prepared must be prepared, so as not to be rude and lose the face of the little sister.

Reason, these things are all handled by the head of the house, but since the eldest lady learned that day that the Huo family gave a house to add a dowry to the Ming family, she felt that the Chen family's dowry was too little, and the old lady was partial, leaving good family affairs to her daughter, but ignoring her granddaughter.

The eldest lady didn't expect that when she was talking in her room, the eldest man would know when he turned his head.

The eldest lord even went to reprimand the eldest wife, so the eldest lady was sick again, and she was ready to "recover" in the past few days, but when she heard that the Huo family was going to come to discuss marriage, she went back to bed and lay down.

As long as Master Ming thinks of this, he has a headache, and when he finishes the family affairs of the little sister and Mingya, he begins to discuss with Mingda, saying that he will find a strong and reasonable daughter-in-law for Mingda, and then hand over the power of the family to his daughter-in-law, and take care of this family.

That's right, you have to be strong, otherwise you will live in this mother-in-law.

After explaining all the things that should be arranged, Uncle Ming breathed a sigh of relief and was about to sit down and have a cup of tea, when Ah Xing trotted in: "Master, something happened to the Wu family." ”

"Wu Family" Master Ming, since Wu Lizhu scolded Ming Ya in Zaoshu Hutong and told Ming Ya about her crush on Wu Tong, the relationship between the Ming and Wu families has not been as good as before.

In the past, Wu Lizhu often came to the Ming family, and after this incident, the Ming lord clearly told the eldest lady that Wu Tong and Wu Lizhu could come to the Ming family in the future, and the son of the Ming family could also go to the Wu family, but it was only limited to sitting and leaving, so as not to be idle in the melon fields.

Therefore, Mrs. Mingda was "sick" for a while, and the news knew whether it had reached the Wu family, but it was true that the Wu family did not come to visit the patient.

Now that I heard that something had happened to the Wu family, Master Ming didn't respond for a while.

"Yes, it's my uncle's house, last night, there was a girl who committed suicide in front of the Wu family, and shed a lot of blood, and today before dawn, the yamen received a report and found the Wu family, and the Wu family didn't know that there was such a big thing at that time."

Because Baoding is close to the capital, the security has always been very good. There were also officials patrolling the city at night, but the Wu family was not a house facing the street, and the officials could not patrol there, so they did not find it at night.

When it was almost dawn, the patrol was tired, and saw that the familiar snack shop was lit up, so he went over to eat a bowl of wontons, and just sat down, he saw the old man who played the watch stumbling over, saying that there was a dead man in the alley of the Wu family, and he shed a lot of blood, and the old man did not dare to come over to see, he played the watch on the street every night, and knew where the officials usually rested, so he ran over.

At this time, the door of the Wu family had not yet been opened, the officials knocked on the door of the Wu family, and the old housekeeper of the Wu family came out and saw the blood all over the ground, and was so frightened that he fainted to death on the spot.

"Now, my uncle has gone to the yamen?" Master Ming asked.

"I have already gone, not only my uncle, but also the concierge of the Wu family who was on duty last night was also taken away, and the Ya sent people to guard outside the Wu family's door, so that the people of the Wu family should not go anywhere, stay in the house and wait for the summons." Adao.

Master Ming (this chapter is not finished!) )

Sitting back in the chair, since the Wu family is not allowed to go out, of course outsiders can't go in, and it is not rude for the Ming family not to visit.

"Let's go talk to the eldest lady." Master Ming thought about it, but he still told the eldest wife, after all, this is the Wu family's business, and the eldest lady is the aunt of the Wu family.

When the eldest lady heard this, she sat up from the bed, and was about to go out with her shoes on, but the maids hurriedly supported her, and the eldest lady wore her hair: "I went to see the eldest master, there was an accident in the in-laws' house, shouldn't he go to the yamen to take a look?" ”

Master Ming was guarding against this, and when the eldest lady shouted, Master Ming had already finished drinking tea and got up in Shuangjing Hutong.

Yesterday, I got some good walnuts, and I just took them to make up for the third master's brain, a person in his thirties, if he can't pass the exam this time, he won't be able to think about it in the future.

Master Ming smashed a plate of walnuts for the master in Shuangjing Hutong, and went to find the second master, the second wife just came back from the shop where she was married, listened to a stomach of gossip, saw that the eldest master was also there, and hurriedly asked about the Wu family)

The eldest man didn't know what to ask, and the second wife said mysteriously: "Big brother, you are not as well-informed as me, I have heard that the dead girl is not from Baoding, but from the capital." ”

Not to mention the eldest master, even the second master, who didn't like to ask his wife about gossip, was interested: "The eucalyptus sent in the morning, and the identity of the girl will be found out at this time?" ”

The second wife shook the fan in her hand and looked proud: "That's right, you said it was a coincidence, that girl only came to Baoding yesterday and lived in Deyue Building." ”

The eldest and second elder understood.

The second wife's maiden family is a merchant, and the dowry for her daughter is very heavy, the second wife has seven or eight shops herself, plus acres of fertile land, and her sister is the same, and this inn called Deyuelou is the dowry of the second wife's sister.

"When I heard that a big girl had died in front of Wu's house, the guy in Deyuelou was startled, and hurriedly told the shopkeeper that the girl who lived in during the day yesterday had asked him how to go in the alley of the Wu family.

On weekdays, how can there be a young girl living alone in the store, therefore, the shopkeeper was very impressed by the girl, Shi Yuan did not let the girl, let the girl go to other houses to see, but the girl was bitter, said only to stay for one night, tomorrow will leave, the shopkeeper saw that she was single, if it was difficult to find a place to live, a moment of kindness, let her live, so the guy said, the shopkeeper knew who it was, and asked the guy to knock on the door.

But as soon as Ji knocked on the door, the door opened, and the door was not inserted, and there was no one inside, and then I looked at the bed covers, which were neatly folded, as if someone had slept with them.

The shopkeeper and the man were frightened and hurriedly sent a letter to my family asking what to do.

As soon as my sister heard it, what else could I do, report to the official, that's it, report to the official, the girl claimed to be from the capital, surnamed You, there was only a small burden when she lived in, and the burden was still in the room, I heard that the people of the yamen found Lu Yin inside, but Lu Yin was taken to the yamen along with the baggage. ”
