After the lard residue thought that she had saved enough for the dowry, she asked the matchmaker to say goodbye, and the pillow sister-in-law was very unhappy that the lard residue made an initiative to propose, but the pillow sister-in-law learned that the lard residue had a considerable amount of savings in the chat with the matchmaker, and immediately changed her face and agreed to the relationship between the two.

After that, the pillow sister-in-law began to work on the marriage of Xiujuan and the lard residue, but Xiujuan was very dissatisfied with the marriage, because she did not want to marry an ugly and silly man like the lard residue, Xiujuan always believed that she could marry a young and handsome rich child one day in the future, and become the young grandmother of the rich family.

So Xiujuan thinks that marrying lard residue is the injustice of fate, although she also wants the bride price of lard residue, but she just doesn't want to marry him, the best result for herself is that lard residue continues to provide free cooking oil for her family, and then gives the bride price to herself, and at the same time does not force herself to marry him, can respect her own happiness, and accept that she marries the person she wants to marry, this is the most perfect ending, after all, this is how it is performed in the theater.

But the progress of things is not as easy as Xiujuan thought, soon after the two got engaged, Xiujuan found the flaws in the character of the lard residue, and really couldn't stand his desire to control, so she proposed to withdraw from the marriage, but did not return the dowry, because the dowry had been given to herself, the two had a big quarrel about it, that was the first time Xiujuan saw the lard residue angry, originally thought that the lard residue was a temperless deflated eggplant, of course, this was also the last time she saw the lard residue angry.

Because after Xiujuan and the lard residue quarreled, Xiujuan left her home, I don't know where to hide, the lard residue came to the door several times to ask for an explanation but failed to get her wish, the pillow sister-in-law refused to return the dowry or handed over the eldest daughter Xiujuan to the lard residue, and the lard residue did not come again after two or three times to ask for fruitlessness, I heard that it was sick......

Just when the pillow sister-in-law wanted to inform Xiujuan of the good news, she found that Xiujuan who was hiding in a relative's house was missing, and the relatives did not know where she went.

Sister-in-law: "Okay, you oil thief!" You kidnapped me with such a good daughter? Say it! Where have you hidden my daughter? If you don't hurry up and hand it over to me, if my daughter is missing a hair, I'll let you sit in the prison, say it quickly! ”

And the sick lard residue has no spirit to deal with the confrontation at the moment, if it weren't for the kind neighbor who has been sending him some food these days, I'm afraid that he has died of illness in the house, thinking of his years of early morning and greed, thinking of his years of tireless hard work, and finally the savings he saved were cheated away, and he couldn't afford to ask for it back, and the lard residue that was already a nest couldn't think of it for a while, so he was sick with anger, and at this time he was half-dead in the court, and he couldn't speak at all, I couldn't even hear what my sister-in-law was saying, the lard residue just knelt on the ground with her head on her head, and the sleepy lard residue only felt as if she was in a dream, without pain or trouble, just floating there.

The county magistrate looked at the lard residue that did not answer in the hall, and only felt a little angry, so he ordered the 20 boards to be beaten on the grounds that the lard residue despised the court, and did not want to beat the 20 boards down, so he directly beat the lard residue into a coma.

Sister-in-law: "Master, you can't be deceived by that oil thief, he is pretending to be sick, I am sick, our orphan and widow are not easy, and now he has tied up my family's money...... No, it's my daughter! This is forcing me to die, you must not spare him, you have to be punished! Otherwise he wouldn't have confessed! ”。

The county magistrate shook his head, although he also felt that the lard residue might be the murderer, but now the lard residue seemed to be sick, if a heavy punishment was imposed, it would indeed be inappropriate to kill people, even if the lard residue was a poor person, even if he was a man of beauty and value......

After that, the case of Xiujuan's loss was entrusted to the Public Security Bureau of Nansiping County, and it was Xiao Bujie Wu Mingfan who took over the case.

In the backyard of the Sheriff's Office, at this time, a group of young men in their twenties were gathered around to watch the wrestling match, and two topless men were wrestling in the center of the venue, one of them had a light yellow complexion, a relatively strong physique, although the facial features were not surprising, but they were very spiritual, especially those eyes, which were flashing with love for life, he was Wu Mingfan.

In the arena, he is fighting with an opponent who is taller than him and stronger than him to learn wrestling skills, but Wu Mingfan, who is at a disadvantage in terms of physique, is not panicking, but bends down and lowers his center of gravity in a circle with the opponent, both sides are looking for the opponent's flaws and then attacking, the sun is just noon, and the hot sun is really testing people's patience, and the tall opponent can't bear the heat first, I saw that he suddenly pounced on Wu Mingfan, and wanted to directly knock down Wu Mingfan with his physical advantage, but Wu Mingfan's skills are very vigorous, A sideways dodge directly made one of the opponent's hands empty, and at the same time, one of his Wu Mingfan's hands had grabbed the opponent's belt, one foot directly stumbled under the opponent's feet, the opponent's body balance was destroyed and naturally fell to the side, Wu Mingfan's hand that grabbed the opponent's belt suddenly increased its strength, and the other hand was used as an auxiliary to grasp the opponent's shoulder, so both hands directly lifted the opponent above the head, and then gently threw it forward, the opponent's weight became a negative attribute at the moment, Because it aggravated the fall damage suffered by the opponent, I heard a 'poof' sound and the opponent fell heavily on the ground, although it was grass, but its own weight and Wu Mingfan's throwing power still made the big man directly stunned, and everyone began to applaud on the side.

At this time, the clerk of the Public Security Department came to look for Wu Mingfan, and the purpose was naturally to hand over the relevant records of Xiujuan's missing case to him, so that he could perform his investigation duties.

Wu Mingfan got dressed and got the case file, and then beckoned to everyone to say that he was going to deal with official business, and everyone automatically dispersed with interest, and it was natural to go to his own business when the excitement was over, after all, the salary was not white-collar.

Wu Mingfan came to the house to look through the case file, and found that the content was very small and incoherent in many places, indicating that there were many hidden facts in the case that had not been written, so his job was to investigate these hidden facts clearly, and then return them to the county order for ruling.

That night, Wu Mingfan didn't even have time to eat dinner when he returned home, so he hurriedly came to Liu Jin's house next door, because the two families knew about Wu Mingfan and Liu Jin Qiqiao, and they also acquiesced to their future, so naturally Wu Mingfan was very welcome to come to the house, and even after learning that Wu Mingfan had not had dinner, he directly prepared a dinner for him and sent it to Liu Jin Qiqiao's room, so that the two could eat and chat in private.

Liu Jin Qiqiao: "Why did you come here without dinner?" Isn't my food really to your taste? ”

Wu Mingfan: "Haha, I naturally don't have to pick the cooking skills of Qiqiao, but more importantly, I have taken over another case here, so I must come and hear your opinion." ”

Liu Jin Qiqiao: "Yo, it seems that the errand you are in charge of has changed recently, and you are no longer concentrating on catching thieves?" ”

Wu Mingfan: "Hehe, catching a few little thieves is not a good thing, I think the eldest master must have noticed my idea of wanting to become one of the top ten outstanding young people in Nansiping County, so he appointed me to handle so many difficult cases recently." ”

Liu Jin Qiqiao: "Hehe, then I want to congratulate you in advance, Xiaofan." ”

Wu Mingfan: "Hehe, Qiqiao, you want to become the daughter-in-law of the top ten outstanding young people in Nansiping County in the future, how about it?" Isn't it a little bit of an expectation? ”

Liu Jin Qiqiao: "Looking forward to ...... Of course there is, what girl doesn't want to have a good husband, but! I'm even more concerned about your safety, so! You must be careful when you take on the case, and don't provoke those Jianghu people, otherwise...... It can be dangerous. ”

Wu Mingfan: "Oh, I know, I deal with some cases in the market, and I won't provoke those Jianghu people." ”

Liu Jin Qiqiao: "Well, then I'll be relieved." ”

Wu Mingfan: "Qiqiao, your umbrella shop usually has a lot of customers, have you ever heard of lard residue?" ”

Liu Jin Qiqiao: "Well, I've heard that a few times he passed by in front of my shop, and in my impression, he is a timid and responsible man, so I don't think he will commit crimes, and even I don't think he has the capital to commit crimes." In this world, there are such people who are not naturally aggressive, no matter how much they are wronged and how much injustice they are subjected to, they will not retaliate, on the contrary, some people are naturally extremely aggressive, even if they are not treated unfairly, but just seeing the injustice of others is enough to provoke their rebellion. ”

Wu Mingfan: "That's it...... I also think there's something wrong with the person who was called the pillow sister-in-law. ”

Liu Jin Qiqiao: "Then you might as well ask your sister-in-law about the situation tomorrow?" ”

Wu Mingfan: "Well, I think so too. ”

After dinner, the two came to sit side by side at the stone table in the backyard, and then talked about some fleshy but not obscene love words, in such a night, Liu Jin Qiqiao's head naturally leaned on Wu Mingfan's shoulder.

This is really a very good pair, it can be described as a door-to-door pair, Wu Mingfan's family is a dart game, he is a fast catcher, that is, a civil servant, this is a decent and no dangerous and stable errand, and Liu Jin Qiqiao's family has a hundred acres of fertile land in the countryside, and he will not worry about rice and grain at all, and Liu Jin Qiqiao himself worshiped under the door of the Weaving Ji Pavilion in his early years, although his martial arts cultivation is average, but the umbrella making and umbrella repair skills are very good, so with the help of the family, he now runs an umbrella shop, Because of the appearance and practicality of its umbrellas, they are very famous in the local area, so they are very popular in the local area, and their monthly income is naturally very good, and although Wu Mingfan and Liu Jin Qiqiao cannot be regarded as handsome men and beautiful women, they are very fond of each other, so they must be a happy couple after they get married, I personally think so.

At ten o'clock in the morning of the next day, Wu Mingfan came to the home of his sister-in-law.

Wu Mingfan: "Is there anyone at home?" I'm the Vigilant Arrester. ”

Wu Mingfan, who wanted to knock on the door, found that the door was unlocked and hidden, so he could only shout loudly.

Soon someone trotted out of the house, and the person who came was not the pillow sister-in-law, but the neighbor's aunt nearby.

Neighbor's aunt: "Yo, you are here, you are here, it is too coincidental that you came, and there was an accident at my sister-in-law's house again." ”

Wu Mingfan: "Something happened again?" What's going on this time? ”

Neighbor's aunt: "This morning, when the pillow sister-in-law asked her little daughter Ya'er to eat, no matter how she shouted outside the door, there was no response inside, and the pillow sister-in-law had to take the key to open the door, but when the door opened, she found that the bud was not in the room, but she was still eating together last night, so this time the pillow sister-in-law was scared, and now she is still crying in the house." ”

When Wu Mingfan learned of this, he hurriedly walked to the house.

Pillow sister-in-law: "Oh, the messenger is here!" You're here, you're here, it's too late, my little daughter Ya'er is also lost, you have to help me get it back. ”

Seeing that the catcher came to the house, it was like seeing a life-saving straw, and he hurriedly begged to find his little daughter.

Wu Mingfan: "Sister-in-law, with all due respect, the two children in your family have been lost in a row, I'm afraid it's not a coincidence, think about it, have you offended the enemy recently?" ”

Pillow sister-in-law: "Enemy? Where do I have any enemies, our family has always been kind to others, if you have to talk about enemies, it must be the oil thief! That's right, he must have done it! ”

Wu Mingfan: "You mean lard residue, right?" But as far as I know, he's still in prison, and he's seriously ill, so I'm afraid I won't be able to come out and steal your little children. ”

Sister-in-law: "I don't care, I told you that it must be a good thing done by the oil thief, you go back and torture him now, and you must let him hand over my two daughters." ”

Gritted his teeth.

Wu Mingfan: "Sister-in-law, don't get excited, according to the information given to me by your neighbor, the time when your little children lost should have been last night, and the lard residue did not have the time to commit the crime, because I went to see him in the cell this morning, and he was still lying in the prison sickly, and he did not leave last night, which can be testified by the cell boss and his cellmates." ”

Sister-in-law: "I don't care if he has the time to commit the crime, this thing is what he did, because he is a disgusting oil seller, who knows what means he used, I don't understand these things as a woman, but you have to be the master, woo woo." ”

Wu Mingfan: "Sister-in-law, then I still have a question, what grievances do you have with lard residue at home?" Why do you think he will take revenge on you so much? ”

As soon as these words came out, the pillow sister-in-law stopped crying for a while, but sat there for a while.

Sister-in-law: "He, he, he has no grudges with our family." ”

Wu Mingfan: "What? No grudges? If there is no grudge, why should he take revenge on you? ”

Pillow sister-in-law: "Then who knows, he's perverted, he's insane, he may be revenge if he doesn't sleep well, that's right!" He took revenge because my daughter dumped him, so he was resentful. ”

Wu Mingfan: "Oh...... So, did he come to your house to make trouble before? ”

Sister-in-law: "It's been troublesome, I came to my house to make trouble before, and I want to get the money back." ”

Wu Mingfan: "Money? What money? ”

Sister-in-law: "Eh! There is no money, just a little money spent during his relationship with my daughter, and he plans to go back, such a non-structured and stingy man is not worthy of my daughter at all. ”

Wu Mingfan: "Sister-in-law, I don't think it's that simple, it's better for you to make things clear, I think if there is no huge conflict between you, there is no reason for him to do such a dangerous thing as kidnapping, are you thinking about it carefully, did you forget to say something?" ”

Sister-in-law: "Oh, my God, my two daughters are lost, you don't interrogate the prisoner, just here to embarrass me as a woman, it's really unreasonable, woo woo." ”

Hearing the distrust in Wu Mingfan's words, the pillow sister-in-law began to pretend to cry to disturb the audio-visual.

The neighbors on the side saw the pitiful appearance of the pillow sister-in-law beating her thighs while crying, and they couldn't help but help on the side.

Wu Ming Fan saw that he couldn't ask the result here, so he had to leave temporarily. It's just that before leaving the pillow sister-in-law's house, I found that there was a black little boy at the door who was eavesdropping on the movement inside the door, and when he saw Wu Mingfan coming out, the little boy hurriedly ran away, and then stopped not far away and continued to look here. And Wu Mingfan did not criticize the little boy, but left the pillow sister-in-law's house directly, this little boy is only eleven years old this year, and he looks more naïve than his peers, dark and thin skin, because he runs crazy with his friends all day long and does not like to take a bath, so there is always conspicuous mud on his body, and he is played by his friends as 'little loach', he is a good friend of Ya'er.

At this time, the streets of Nansiping County are lively, at this time the picture is a medical hall at the end of the street, the main entrance of the medical hall hangs a plaque with white characters on a black background, and the plaque is written in Cangluo script with four big characters 'Liangde Medical Center', the owner of the medical hall is a very famous doctor in the local area, the name is Shang Liangxin.

At this time, a carriage stopped in front of the Liangde Medical Center, and after the door opened sideways, two middle-aged men with a height of 30 centimeters walked down, the two looked very obscene, their eyes were unfriendly, and there were iron weapons hanging from their waists.

Lewd Jianghu people: "Hey! Is your owner here? ”

As soon as I entered the door, I asked loudly at Mr. Counter, completely ignoring that this was a medical hall, and most of the patients who came here were patients, so I couldn't be frightened.

Mr. Counter at the Medical Center: "Are you looking for our owner?" ”

Lewd charlatans: "Nonsense! If we don't look for him, we'll ask if he's not there?! ”

Mr. Counter of the Medical Center: "That's right, if you two see a doctor, I can be responsible for arranging, and I don't need to alarm the owner of the museum." ”

Lewd charlatan: "You fart!" Do you fucking look like I'm sick? I think you're underwhelmed! ”

As he spoke, he rolled up his sleeves and made it look like he was going to hit someone.

Shang Liangxin: "Wait! ”

At this time, a well-dressed middle-aged man with a friendly face walked out, and this person was Shang Liangxin, the owner of this medical hall.

Lewd Jianghu people: "Yo, it's you?" ”

Shang Liangxin: "Hehe, do you know me?" ”

Lewd Jianghu people: "Of course I know, it's just ...... You may not know us. ”

Shang Liangxin: "Oh? I wonder where you two have seen me? ”

Lewd Jianghu people: "Hehe, to tell you the truth, we are from the villa!" ”

As he spoke, he pointed his thumb behind his shoulder.

Shang Liangxin: "Oh...... Please come with me, both of you. ”

As soon as he heard the word 'Villa', his face changed slightly, and then he hurriedly led the two to the backyard of the medical hall.

And the mountain villa in the two Jianghu people is not an ordinary leisure and summer resort, but a force gathered by a group of Jianghu people.

There is a place called Luoshan next to Nansiping County, this Luoshan is about 600 miles away from Hengyu Town, the altitude of this mountain is only six or seven hundred meters, the mountain is high in the east and low in the west, which makes the trees on the east mountain particularly tall and dense, but the trees on the west mountain are short and sparse, and there is a peak that protrudes outwards in the north of the west mountain, which is called the lookout platform, this lookout platform is not blocked by the high mountain in the east, so the trees grow very smoothly, especially in summer, there is often a pleasant cool breeze blowing here, Therefore, it is a good place to escape the summer, so there is a mountain villa for summer vacation on this lookout platform called Iron Sword Villa.

There are more than 200 chivalrous warriors in this Iron Sword Villa, and more than 100 thieves and bandits are at ease in one place, and the owner of the Iron Sword Villa is called Tan Huanrang, who is a lay disciple of the Iron Master of the Lower Nine Gates.

Shang Liangxin took the two obscene Jianghu people to where and what they did, regardless of where they went, it was already afternoon, and the little unhappy Wu Mingfan had come to the prison, and the lard residue was already able to speak at this time, and the lard residue was not in the body, but the blow was too great, causing a fire to fall ill without suppressing it, fortunately, the cell head was a good person, and he had heard of the pitiful life experience of the lard residue, so he was full of sympathy for him, and even didn't believe that he would break the law at all, so at the behest of the cell boss, The prison bully in the same cell did not embarrass the lard residue, and arranged a better bunk for him, and did not let him do the tiring work of scrubbing Gongjian, but let him recuperate well.

At this time, Wu Mingfan, the cell head, and the lard residue were sitting in a small room that was convenient for conversation, and the lard residue began to talk about him and Xiujuan in front of the two, and the content of what he said was very different from what the pillow sister-in-law said......

Wu Mingfan: "Lard residue, do you know about the disappearance of Miss Xiujuan?" ”

He asked with a serious expression.

Lard residue: "Yes." ”

He replied weakly, but still seriously.

Wu Mingfan: "Now my sister-in-law insists that you kidnapped her daughter, do you ...... Do you admit it? ”

Lard residue: "I don't admit it, I can't admit what I haven't done." ”

Wu Mingfan: "How long have you known Miss Xiujuan?" ”

Lard residue: "More than three years ......"

Wu Mingfan: "Have you ever had a dispute?" ”

Lard residue: "Once." ”

Wu Mingfan: "When?" ”

Lard residue: "When I want to get out of the marriage......"

Wu Mingfan: "En? Why do you want to get out of the marriage? ”

Lard residue: "Because it broke her adultery." ”

Wu Mingfan: "In detail. ”

Lard residue: "I was ugly and born poor, and now I live by selling oil, so I have long known that I will never meet a woman who really likes me in my life, but I met Xiujuan that day, I thought it was a blessing from God who took pity on me, but I didn't want this to be my calamity...... Xiujuan often told me that she likes hard-working men, so I only slept two hours a day, and worked as hard as possible to sell oil to make money, rain or shine for three years, I just hoped to move her, and Xiujuan's mother also promised me that as long as I could meet the requirements of her family, I could marry Xiujuan to me, so I once thought that I could marry Xiujuan as a wife......"

Wu Mingfan: "What are her family's requirements?" ”

Lard residue: "There are at least two courtyards in the southern district of Nansiping County, because Xiujuan's mother also has to move over to live together, so there must be at least three green tile brick houses or a two-story brick and wood building, and the living area cannot be less than 150 square meters!" In addition, gentlemen's hiring, filial piety, and Fuyuan bags are all necessary, although I also feel that these things are only paid attention to when a big family marries, Xiujuan and I are ordinary civilians, and there is no need to pay attention to these, but Xiujuan's mother insists that her daughter must marry decently, otherwise the thief will not marry! I had no choice but to say yes. I ran desperately in the alleys for three years to save some money, but it was still far from fulfilling Xiujuan's mother's requirements, so I had to go to the money village to sign a two-life loan, so that I could buy a house and be hired, but I didn't want me to hand over the deed and dowry to Xiujuan's mother on the front foot, Xiujuan immediately regretted the marriage, I asked for an explanation, Xiujuan said that she pursued the freedom of love and could not accept the marriage transaction! I had to ask Xiujuan's mother for the return of the deed and other things, but Xiujuan's mother disagreed, she said that she had agreed to her daughter marrying me, so she could accept these things, as for her daughter's refusal to marry me, it was a matter between me and her daughter, let me solve it myself, and told me to be patient, to work harder to make money, as long as I pay sincerely, I can move her daughter...... I feel like I've been tricked, I haven't spoken to Xiujuan a few times in the past three years, let alone anything else, and every time I go to her house, I give free oil, I'm very angry! After that, I went to her house to ask for an explanation several times, but I was kicked out by Xiujuan's mother, at that time I already felt a little unwell, but in order to live, I still have to continue to walk the street to sell oil, one day I went to the door of a family to sell oil and was stopped by the old mother of that family, just when I poured oil for them, I saw Xiujuan wearing a corset and walked out, she was followed by a man wearing only pajama pants, I immediately understood what was happening, at that time we had an argument in the yard of his house, I was also beaten up by the tall man and fell ill after that......"

Hearing this, Wu Mingfan and the cell boss both understood, if what the lard residue said was true, then the two sister-in-law and Xiujuan were clearly engaged in fraud, poor lard residue was so easy to be deceived, and the current situation was very unfavorable for him......
