Chapter 15: Clues
"Yes!" After getting such a sentence, the maid closed her mouth unwillingly, but the expression on her face was a little unwilling.
Lin Niannian retracted his gaze and stood in place, his eyes lowered.
saw that Liu Yuroulian moved slightly, and her skirt just stopped in front of her.
"Where are you from, why haven't I seen you before?" The warbler's voice carried a trace of doubt, Lin Niannian was silent, and just as he was about to speak, he heard the maid just say for himself:
"This was brought into the house by the third lady."
"I've seen Miss." Lin Niannian owed a debt, and at this moment, a maid suddenly came over in a hurry, and asked Liu Yurou to take someone to the front hall to burn paper.
"Got it, you go down first." Liu Yurou's voice carried a hint of tiredness, and said to Lin Niannian, "Since this is the case, then you can come with me!" ”
Lin Niannian had no choice but to follow.
Compared with the silence of the backyard, the front hall is particularly lively, and the chanting of suona is noisy.
Several of Liu Zhanghui's wives and concubines knelt in one place, their faces sad, and a brazier was placed in front of them, in which there were already a lot of ashes of paper money.
Liu's mother was supported by several maids, almost crying into tears, Liu Yurou walked over with someone, held back her grief, and said widely: "Mother, mourn." ”
Mother Liu didn't appreciate it, only glared at her fiercely, and cried darkly: "If it weren't for you, my son wouldn't have died!" ”
Liu Yurou was pushed back a few steps, her face full of loss, so she had to kneel to the side with those concubines.
Lin Niannian looked around, didn't find Yan Chenghuai's shadow, and couldn't help but be a little disappointed.
said that they were going to look for clues separately, but I don't know where this person went. Retracting his gaze, Lin Niannian took the paper money brought by the little guy on the side, and was about to hand it to Liu Yurou, but when he saw the scene in front of him, a storm and waves set off in his heart.
Liu Zhanghui has three concubines and a wife, not counting Sanniang, who has gone out, and the remaining three people all have parts that look similar to Liu Yurou.
This......
Lin Niannian was horrified in her heart, no wonder she felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity, it was so!
Liu Zhanghui actually has such thoughts about his sister!
Under the shock of the bottom of his heart, Lin Niannian handed over the paper money, that is, at this juncture, Lin Niannian's hand inadvertently touched Liu Zhanghui's wife, and a sad voice came:
“…… Liu Zhanghui is buried, so she can rest assured......"
In a word, it was not clear, but it made Lin Niannian goosebumps, and in the next second, his body was knocked away, and Bi Jin didn't know where he came out, looking displeased, and raised his eyebrows to look at her: "What are you doing in a daze?" Why don't you go to the back to help? ”
Lin Niannian was silent, it was useless to be here anymore, so he just had to go to the back kitchen with the most people.
After walking a short distance, his body was pulled aside by a huge force.
"What are you going for?"
The powerful big hand stopped Lin Niannian's movements, and it wasn't until a deep voice sounded in his ears that Lin Niannian didn't move.
"Yan Chenghuai?" After a pause, Lin Niannian let go of his fist, raised his eyes to look at the shadow covering his head, and frowned, "Why are you here?" ”
At this time, although Yan Chenghuai did not take off the human skin mask, his body had already returned to his former height, he did not answer Lin Niannian's words, but frowned and looked at the position at her feet;
"Take it away!"
Lin Niannian, who realized that he had stepped on the other party's shoes, silently withdrew it, and listened to Yan Chenghuai's voice above his head:
"I have to ask you, why don't you collect clues in the back, what are you doing here?"
Lin Niannian was speechless, raised his head, met the other party's disgusted eyes, paused, and held his forehead: "It's hard to explain this matter clearly for a while." ”
She can't say that she has been a maid for a long time, right?
But fortunately, Yan Chenghuai has no intention of pursuing it.
Lin Niannian breathed a sigh of relief, thought about it, and said, "Did you find any clues over there?" ”
Yan Chenghuai stared at her for a long time, and suddenly took out a stack of letters from his arms, the handwriting on them was familiar, he pinched the corner of the letter, and shook it in front of Lin Niannian: "Do you know what this is?" ”
Lin Niannian shook her head, how could she know what was inside.
"This is a letter from the prefect Li Zheng and Liu Changping." Yan Chenghuai's words were amazing, the hairs on Lin Niannian's back were about to explode, he looked at the letter with round eyes, and then looked at Yan Chenghuai's calm face:
"No, sir...... You just take it out like this, aren't you afraid of startling the snake? ”
Liu Changping, an old fox, will definitely be anxious if such an important thing is lost, and when the time comes, it will be found on them, let alone investigating the case, whether or not he can keep his job is one thing.
This Lord Qincha, Yan Chenghuai, he is a little marquis from the capital can be ignored, when the term of office expires, he will take office directly, who cares if she lives or dies at that time?
Lin Nian wilted, and saw the little marquis slowly put the letter back into his arms: "What are you afraid of, if you can be found by us, it is not an important thing after all." If you lose it, you lose it. ”
Then you still bring it back, Lin Nian secretly slandered himself.
"What do we do next?"
Yan Chenghuai pondered for a long time, and suddenly said, "You came from the mourning hall just now, what important things did you see?" ”
Something that matters......
Lin Niannian suddenly remembered those very similar faces, his face was embarrassed, and he seemed to be a little embarrassed:
This Liu Zhanghui seems to have some thoughts about his sister that he shouldn't have...... And this Liu Yurou doesn't seem to be as beautiful as we look like on the outside......"
After saying this, Yan Chenghuai's expression did not move, and he only said: "It is not surprising that there is dirt and dirt hidden between the big families. ”
After that, his eyes flowed, and he looked at Lin Niannian for a long time: "This point of interest is still doing a trick, I really think highly of you!" ”
After that, he walked straight forward, Lin Nian gritted his teeth angrily, but for the sake of the case, he had to catch up and say, "Then can we go home now?" ”
"Liu Zhanghui's burial is the most chaotic time in Liu's mansion, and now go back, all your efforts have been wasted." Yan Chenghuai's words were concise and to the point, "Except for Sun Rulan, I'm afraid that only the young lady knows best in this mansion." ”
Lin Niannian remembered the words he had heard in the young lady's heart just now, and was surprisingly silent.
Indeed, this has nothing to do with her.
The two of them dodged the miscellaneous servants who came and went, and went straight to the young lady's house, and just after hiding, they heard the sound of the door locking, and two pairs of embroidered shoes appeared in front of their eyes.
In the dark, Lin Niannian Yan Chenghuai and the two glanced at each other and held their breath.
“…… You are not in good health, and we are in front of the mourning hall, just for the sake of the child in the womb, and you must also have a good rest. The voice was slow, followed by the sound of teacups clashing, and then another person whispered.
