Chapter 54: Characteristics (1st Update)
Zhao Qingci's eyes were like water, and he looked at his little sister for a long time, until Zhao Xiaowan began to wonder if she had said something wrong, but Zhao Qingci suddenly turned around.
I saw her gently put away the picture scroll, and said softly: "I heard Xiaocui tell that when she was six years old, she went to the mountains to pick a kind of insect medicine, and wanted to sell it to the pharmacy for money to cure her grandmother's leg disease. ”
Unfortunately, he fell off a rock and broke his little finger...... I don't have money to see a doctor, so I can only endure it, endure it, and the broken little finger grows on its own, although it does not affect the work, but compared with ordinary people, it looks a little deformed......
Zhao Xiaowan got the news she wanted and was satisfied. Seeing that the sky was completely dark, he helped the second sister to go to the main courtyard for dinner.
A dinner was enjoyed by the guests and hosts, although I didn't know the inside story of Master Sun's visit this time, but the old man of the Fu family still took the opportunity to make friends with him.
Until the end of the meal, the group offered to leave, and the Fu family repeatedly retained them, and the Zhao family and Sun Zhubo's master and apprentice still chose to leave.
sent everyone to the door, and saw that Zhao Xiaowan was about to board the carriage and leave, but was stopped by Zhao Qingci.
"Sister, what's wrong?"
Zhao Qingci stretched out his hand to the maid on the side, and the maid Yugui immediately presented the picture scroll that the young lady had just asked her to take back to the East Courtyard.
Zhao Qingci's eyes were like water, and there was a shallow smile on the corner of his mouth, and he said softly, "Xiaowan, you can take this painting......
Zhao Xiaowan thought that she had revealed her stuffing, and hurriedly wanted to explain, "Sister......"
Zhao Qingci didn't give her a chance to speak, she said in front of Sun Zhubo, "Didn't you say that the people in the village met Xiaocui, you can bring this painting back, and when the people in the village meet her again, you will transfer it to her for me......"
Hearing this, Zhao Xiaowan subconsciously looked at Sun Zhubo, and saw that he nodded at her without a trace, so he breathed a sigh of relief and took the scroll.
Until the carriage slowly drove away from the dock by moonlight, Zhao Xiaowan didn't notice it, Zhao Qingci looked at the back of her leaving, and her eyes were full of grief.
However, Sun Zhubo glanced back at Zhao Celadon before getting into the car, and the moment the two looked at each other, they seemed to have an understanding.
After the Sun lord Bo Chaofu family bowed slightly, he lifted the straw curtain and bent down into the carriage.
……
The carriage swayed in the direction of the county seat.
There were no lights in the carriage, and the only light that came from the lanterns hanging outside the carriage.
When they left the Fu family, Fu Wenqing sent it intimately.
With the moonlight and the swaying shimmer, Zhao Xiaowan spread out the scroll in his hand.
"Master Sun, it's Sister Xiaocui who is painted on it......," she said, and brought up Yao Xiaocui's somewhat deformed little thumb that her sister had said.
I saw Master Sun staring at the portrait and pondering for a long time, and then let out a long sigh.
"My lord, what's wrong with you?" Zhao Xiaowan didn't know why.
Master Sun Bo sighed and said, "If the old man is not mistaken, this Yao Xiaocui may have been killed a long time ago......"
He remembered that among the fifteen skeletons, there was exactly one that matched Zhao Xiaowan's description.
This time not only Zhao Xiaowan was shocked, but Zhao Daniu was also shocked, and his heart "chuckled", "My lord, do you mean that Xiaocui was murdered by Su Dazhi a long time ago?" ”
"But ......" Zhao Xiaowan's eyes were full of doubts, "why did Su Dazhi kill Sister Xiaocui?" They have no grievances and no hatred......"
As she spoke, she remembered her personal experience two days ago, and silently shut up.
She and Su Dazhi are also innocent, but didn't that person want to kill her?
Does it make sense to reason with a murderer?
This is also where Sun Zhubo feels the most puzzled.
