Chapter 108: The Secret in the Mansion (2nd Watch)

Xu Jing looked at Xiao He, raised her lips and smiled unhurriedly, and said, "This is also a good question. As I said earlier, the fatal wound of the deceased was a knife wound on the right side of the neck, and that knife wound was probably here. ”

Xu Jing said as she raised her hand and drew a line diagonally on the right side of her neck to show everyone.

When Xu Jing said this, she suddenly paused, looked at Wei Dadong and Xinghua Nianxia, and said, "You have entered the scene of the crime and seen the deceased with your own eyes, do you remember what the deceased looked like at that time?" ”

Several people were stunned, Wei Dadong reacted first, and said, "I remember...... My wife's hair was not tied at the time, and her makeup seemed to be half gone......"

As he spoke, he seemed to remember the tragic death of his wife, and he couldn't help choking up again.

Xinghua glanced at him, and hurriedly said: "Lord Lang is right, Mrs. is generally used to tying her hair after putting on makeup, just today, Nian Xia, who specializes in makeup and hair for Mrs. on weekdays, went outside to grab medicine for Mrs., so Mrs. can only do it herself, and her movements are a little slower......"

There is a bit more information in this paragraph, Xu Jing raised her eyebrows slightly, and said, "Grab the medicine?" Is your lady unwell? ”

Nian Xia, who was still shedding tears on the side, choked up and said, "Madam...... Mrs. has a little cough and sore throat during this time, a few days ago I invited the doctor to come and see, the doctor prescribed a few doses of medicine to Mrs., Mrs. after eating it yesterday, she originally said that she would not eat it, but in fact, it was ...... In fact, Madame's illness has not yet broken its roots, and the cough suddenly became serious last night, so I sent the slave maid to grab a few more medicines early in the morning and came back. ”

Xu Jing nodded, looked at Xinghua, and said, "You said, Nian Xia is not here, your wife can only do her own makeup and hair, aren't you also the maid next to your wife?" Can't you help your lady with her makeup and hair? ”

Xinghua was stunned for a moment, her face seemed to be slightly red, and she said with some embarrassment: "Slave maid...... The slave and maid are clumsy, and the lady has always been unable to look at it, and she has always sent the slave and maid to do some chores, so ...... So ......"

While she was talking, Xu Jing saw that Nian Xia on the side suddenly glanced at her, and there was a very obvious mockery in her eyes.

It seems that this family has a lot of hidden secrets.

She quietly withdrew her gaze and continued the topic, "Back to what happened just now." As Wei Dongjia said, when the deceased died, her long hair was scattered, and her fatal wound was on the right side of her neck.

The murderer most likely killed the deceased from behind, and you can imagine what would have happened when the murderer cut that wound on the deceased's neck. ”

Zhao Jingming was fascinated by it unconsciously, and he couldn't even care about the person who was guiding his thoughts was Xu Siniang, who he had never looked down on, and when he heard this, he hurriedly racked his brains and thought about it, and suddenly said with a flash of inspiration: "If the deceased's hair was scattered at that time, the murderer would definitely cut the deceased's hair if he killed like this!" ”

"That's right!"

Xu Jing couldn't help but glance at him, and the corners of his mouth hooked slightly: "If you are killed in that situation, the hair of the deceased will definitely be implicated, more or less, it will definitely be brought!" However, when we conducted an autopsy, we found that near the wounds of the deceased, there was not a single severed hair, not a single hair! ”

The county magistrate of Jingning County couldn't help but say: "No...... Impossible? If so, doesn't it mean that the murderer pulled up the hair of the deceased before killing someone......"

Xu Jing nodded and said, "That's right, moreover, there is no trace of restraint or suppression on the deceased's body, and seeing that the deceased's eyes have not been closed now, she was awake when she was killed."

If there really was a vicious murderer who came in and pulled her hair up and then killed her, how could a normal person not resist without even calling for help? ”

At the time of the incident, although there was only one deceased in the bedroom, the Wei family's mansion was not large, and if the deceased shouted for help, it would be impossible for the people in the entire mansion not to notice any movement.

When everyone thinks about this scene, they can't help but feel a little creepy.

No wonder this lady said that the murderer must be an acquaintance of the deceased, at least, someone who would never be ostracized if he was close to the deceased!

Xinghua suddenly looked at Nian Xia on the side, and said, "Ping...... If you walk behind her and pull up her hair, Madame will not feel that there is anything wrong! But you're ......"

Nian Xia was startled, and immediately glared at her with tears in her eyes, and said, "Don't frame people casually!" Madame treats me so well, how could I do such a wolf-hearted thing! What's more, the servants brought by Madame from her mother's house have almost been expelled by you, and Madame has always said that the only person she can trust and rely on in this family is me, and I will not do anything to hurt Madame......"

Xiao Yi, who had not spoken, glanced at her suddenly and said, "Why are all the servants brought by your wife from her mother's house expelled?" ”

Nian Xia bit her lip fiercely, with an extremely indignant look on her face, however, before she could say anything, Wei Dadong on the side said with a sad face: "This matter is all my fault, I made the late mother wronged." Before my father died last year, I have been thinking about revitalizing the Xinghua Inn, since my great-grandfather's generation, our family's Xinghua Inn is the best inn in Jingning County, but this title has been deprived in the hands of my father.

My father felt sorry for his ancestors and ancestors, and he couldn't even look at it when he died. As his son, I really can't bear to let Daddy go away with such regrets, so I have been planning to rebuild the Xinghua Inn to see if I can regain the title of the No. 1 Inn in Jingning County.

But the cost of rebuilding the inn is a lot, and in recent years, our Xinghua Inn has a lot fewer guests, in order to save the money for rebuilding, I can only reduce the expenses of the family, and release all the servants who can be released, leaving only the necessary few. The late mother also ...... to support me I let all the servants she brought with her go......"

As soon as Wei Dadong's words fell, Xinghua glared back at Nian Xia and said, "Just like Lord Lang said, those servants were all sent away by Madame herself!" Lord Lang said before, I don't want to wronged Mrs., Mrs. doesn't want to send those people away, so he will find a way to save money from other places, it was the lady who kept saying that she wanted to support Lord Lang, and sent people away while Lord Lang didn't know, and posted a lot of money to them! You keep talking about expulsion, but who is it that frames people? ”

Xinghua said, and there was a little pain on her face, as if the money that their wife had taken from her for the money that was posted to those servants.

Nian Xia became angry all of a sudden, his eyes seemed to be able to breathe fire, and he gritted his teeth and said, "You...... You're embarrassed to say it! The money that the lady took to the servants was all the lady's dowry! It didn't cost you a copper plate to the Wei family!

Moreover, Madame did this, because our Madame was virtuous and virtuous, and it was also because the old lady secretly talked to Madame about the difficulties of the lord for a long time, so Madame made up her mind to dismiss all those servants, among them, there is also a nurse who has followed Madame since childhood! You don't know, when Mrs. sent Qian Niang away, she cried so much that her voice was hoarse!

You can say that these are all voluntary by the lady, and the lady is not qualified to complain about anything, but the lady has made so many sacrifices for the lord and the Wei family, but what about you?

The old lady's intention to arrange you by the side of the lord of Lang was clear to the lady, but before the lady married the lord of the Lang, the lord of the lang swore that she would not accept a concubine in this life, and the lady would be willing to marry the lord of the lang, otherwise...... Otherwise, our lady is so beautiful, and my wife and brother have already been admitted to the fame, and those who ask to marry our wife will have to break through the threshold of the Su family, why did our wife choose your lord alone!

The old lady also promised Mrs. at the beginning, saying that as long as Mrs. is willing to support Lord Lang to rebuild the Xinghua Inn, she will let you out and no longer obstruct Mrs. Eyes, but Mrs. sent all the people around her to the ground, but the old lady did not fulfill her promise and ...... I also gave you a hairpin that is worth a lot of money at a glance!

Apricot blossoms, people's hearts are made of meat! It is true that you did not expel those servants, but you deceived Madame into letting them go! Do you think that if you bully Madame like this, Madame will not feel it in her heart? Mrs. is just good-hearted, thinking about the husband and wife relationship with the husband and wife, and she doesn't want to say these things, which makes the family restless! (End of chapter)
