The search is destined to be long.

After all, there are a lot of officials here who can't be messed with, Huang Yougui and Su Qiuyue are no longer distressed that their son's preparation for the exam has been affected, and they don't dare to snub them, so they went into the house and took out a few sticks, boiled some tea, and beckoned Deng Youwei and Xiao Yi to sit and wait.

Xu Jing originally thought that a noble son like Xiao Yi in the capital would not be used to this kind of pestle, but he saw him pull off his robe, without any psychological pressure, and sat down elegantly.

Xu Jing couldn't help but look at Xiao Yi twice because she was a little surprised.

Xiao Yi couldn't notice Xu Jing's gaze, his waist couldn't help but straighten, and his eyebrows frowned slightly.

She kept watching him do something, could it be that there was something wrong with his movements?

However, Xu Jing was a little curious, and quickly took her eyes back.

Xiao Yi suddenly felt that when she stared at him, he felt that something was wrong.

Now that she didn't stare at him, he seemed even more wrong, and his heart was heavy.

He deliberately sat up straight, why didn't she look at him?

The other people related to the case did not leave, and the county order did not say to let them go, where did they dare to leave.

Xiao Yi didn't wear an official uniform when he came over today, he was wearing a round-necked ink-colored dark pattern large-sleeved robe, but the simple dress made him more upright and handsome, and his natural charm, although he barely spoke after coming here, but no one would ignore his existence, and several young ladies would sneak a glance at him from time to time, if it wasn't for the wrong occasion, I was afraid that I would not be able to hold back and take the initiative to talk.

Xu Jing sat diagonally opposite Xiao Yi and Deng Youwei, and when she saw that she was waiting, she glanced at Chen Hu.

Although Xu Jing is wearing a veil, others can't see her appearance clearly, but she is more noticeable like this, not to mention that she is still in a wheelchair, and it is only because the people from the county government are obviously protecting her that no one says anything.

Seeing this, Chen Hu immediately ran over and came to Xu Jing, Xu Jing said something in his ear, Chen Hu nodded, ran back to Xiao Yi and Deng Youwei, and repeated Xu Jing's words.

Xiao Yi glanced up at Xu Jing and nodded.

Deng Youwei was a little surprised, when the conveyed Chen Hu's questions, he felt something, this really knows how to investigate the case!

At this time, she asked Chen Hu to convey to him, and the questions he asked were already in his interrogation plan, but he originally planned to wait for the results of the search to come out.

But it's not impossible to ask now.

Deng Youwei also nodded, Chen Hu immediately stood up, cleared his throat, and looked at the people in the courtyard: "I don't know if Zhuo Niangzi has a grudge against anyone on weekdays?" Or is there anyone who might harm Zhuo Niangzi? ”

Everyone was slightly stunned, and Zhuo's father took the lead in speaking: "My Yuniang is the most docile and well-behaved on weekdays, even if she quarrels with others, she can't hold back a bad word for a long time.

How can such a child take the initiative to make enemies with others? Not to mention...... Not to mention that Yu Niang rarely even goes out of the village on weekdays, Zhenri helps take care of the housework and farm work at home, takes care of the two nephews, and there are only a few people who come and go from time to time, and there is no chance to make enemies with others! ”

Ye Anqiao also nodded and said: "This folk woman can testify, the folk woman grew up with Yu Niang since she was a child, and Yu Niang's temperament is the best among our sisters, that is, because she is too good, she will be bullied by some villains." ”

As she spoke, she glanced at Zhu Yan and Miao Xianglan, who were sitting opposite her, with a resentful expression, Zhu Yan had been keeping her head down since she was surprised by the butterfly pearl silver hairpin on her head, looking extremely hated and ashamed.

Miao Xianglan had been next to Zhu Yan, and when she noticed Ye Anqiao's eyes, her face was slightly pale, but she didn't say anything.

Suddenly, Ye Anqiao paused and said: "However, because Yu Niang is beautiful, there are many people in the village who covet Yu Niang, and the women know Wang Mazi at the head of the village, as well as Chen Xiaozi, whose wife ran away with someone two years ago, every time they see Yu Niang, they all have a squinting face, which is very disgusting!"

Especially that Chen Dwarf, once by passing by Yu Niang, he actually wanted to ...... I want to take advantage of Yu Niang! Fortunately, Huang Erlang was there at the time, and he almost didn't break the hand of the dwarf Chen, such a cheap and disgusting man, no wonder his wife couldn't stand it and ran away with her son!

It's just that since then, every time Chen Xiaozi saw Yu Niang, he had a resentful expression, as if he had a grudge against Yu Niang. ”

Chen Hu was slightly stunned.

The woman who was called Ah Rong by them on the side also spoke: "Indeed, when the folk woman and Yu Niang were together, they also met those two people a few times, and their eyes were sticky every time, which made people very uncomfortable, and it was precisely because of this that Yu Niang would be very vigilant on weekdays and rarely go out alone."

That Wang Mazi is now in his thirties, and he hasn't gotten a daughter-in-law yet, he doesn't just squint at Yu Niang, but there is no woman in the village who has not been harassed by him.

The woman remembered that Yu Niang once told the woman that once she went to the field to deliver food to Uncle Zhuo, and she was the only one on the way back, and Wang Mazi had been following her, and she was so frightened that she ran home almost the whole way, and since then she would pull her sister-in-law or one of her two nephews when she went to deliver food. ”

Ye Anqiao was slightly stunned, and her eyes turned even redder, "Yu Niang didn't tell me about it, she has always been strong-hearted and rarely complains in front of others, so she must have been afraid of being ruthless, so she told you about it......"

Su Qiuyue, who was on the side, suddenly sneered and said, "What kind of strong heart, I think it's a restless fox!" She deserved this kind of thing this time! If it weren't for her, my family would not have been disturbed at such a critical juncture......"

"Mother! Shut up! ”

Huang Qingchuan, who had always had a decadent face and seven souls seemed to have lost his six spirits, suddenly glared at his mother with red and swollen eyes, and shouted in collapse: "I have always loved you, on weekdays, you always say that Yu Niang is not good here, and it is not good there, forget it, and now ...... Now that the Jade Lady is gone, you can't miss the Jade Niang's daily goodness? ”

Su Qiuyue was yelled at by her son in front of so many people, her face was obviously a little unbearable, but she really didn't want to stimulate her son anymore, and finally only said hatefully: "You will be miserable by that woman sooner or later!" ”

Then he kept silent and said no more.

The courtyard was quiet again.

Chen Hu couldn't help but murmur in a low voice: "Who are the people around this Zhuo Niangzi, Zhuo Niangzi has been able to live peacefully for so many years, it seems like a miracle." ”

Xu Jing vaguely heard his words and couldn't help but glance at him.

As the saying goes, the husband is not guilty, but he is guilty. In this world, if a woman does not have enough self-protection ability, but has too ostentatious beauty, she is destined to live a more difficult life.

Just like the original owner who first fell into Hutou Village.

However, although I now know the existence of Wang Mazi and Chen Xiaozi, if there is no evidence that they may be related to Zhuo Yuting's case, it is just a matter of adding to the blockage.

Deng Youwei immediately instructed Chen Hu to tell the officials who were searching outside, focusing on asking the whereabouts of the two people that day.

It's just that they can't be too explicit, if they are really murderers, the people who know the county government are already suspicious of them, and they are afraid that they will startle the snake.

After waiting for more than an hour, the sun was already halfway down the mountain, and then the messenger ran back, saluted Deng Youwei and Xiao Yi, approached them and whispered: "The subordinates have asked all the people who are still in the village, and all of them said that they had not seen Zhuo Niangzi that afternoon.

They also said that after Zhuo Niangzi disappeared, Zhuo Niangzi's father and brother searched for Zhuo Niangzi all over the village, and if anyone had seen Zhuo Niangzi that day, they would have said it a long time ago! ”
