Uncle Qi asked everyone to go out first, leaving only Qiao San, Xiao Chenyu, and Li Siniang present, and Qiao San and Xiao Chenyu helped lift the coffin lid, revealing Qiao Dazhuang who was lying quietly.

Li Siniang stood on the other side, staring at Qiao Dazhuang's face, and suddenly felt that this man was a little strange, and the man who loved to peek at her, always liked to sleep with her in his arms at night, and was also associated with Bao'er from time to time.

In the past few days, Li Siniang has always been thinking about that morning, if she had stopped him, or if she hadn't said anything like that, or.

She has a lot of "or", maybe in that case, this person will run to herself, take a silver hairpin and offer treasure, just to ask for a light kiss from her.

Since birth, Li Siniang has been destined to be a lowly slave.

Niang is a cook, she is her mother's little tail, and she has been growing up with her mother in the Li family's big kitchen.

When she was ten years old, her mother spent money and left the relationship, and stuffed her into the old lady's yard to be a little girl. At that time, it was not easy to enter the old lady's yard, my mother was very happy, but my father was not happy, he wanted Li Siniang to go to the uncle's house to serve, near the water, maybe in the future my daughter can get the uncle's own eyes, and she can be an aunt in the future.

My mother saw a lot in the inner house, but she often taught her that as a subordinate, she should keep to herself, don't be greedy, and follow the old lady more decently than with others.

For Li Siniang, decency is something that goes deep into the bone marrow.

Because she was born in a family, as well as her mother's careful teaching and the connections she had made in the big kitchen before, she became a second-class maid by the old lady's side at the age of twelve.

After another two years, she became the old lady's most trusted big girl, and even her father and brother had to ask her mother to pass her a message if they had something, and as long as she agreed, there was nothing she couldn't do.

Fate is always inescapable, and she still became an uncle's woman.

didn't become a formal aunt for a day, she treated herself as a maid, and tried her best to serve men, even if he and the new woman greeted me and me in front of her, she also abided by her duty and would not show the slightest jealousy, and she never cleaned up the arrogant woman in front of her.

My mother often said that why should women be embarrassed by women, and she also comforted herself like this: they are all women without reputation, what are they fighting for?

Until, she married Qiao Dazhuang.

Did she know what it was like to be held? What does it feel like someone is obsessed with her? What is it like for someone to be jealous because she kissed a child on the cheek?

She always thought that she could only use Qiao Dazhuang, and she used him to escape the shackles of the Li family.

But only in the past few days did she understand that she wanted him back, she only wanted him.

The heart of wanting revenge has never stopped, but at this moment, it has reached its peak.

But the water and rice did not enter for a few days, and she insisted on keeping a vigil for him, and she didn't sleep much, Li Siniang suddenly fell to the ground softly and finally fainted.

Li Siniang was taken away, and Qiao San finally sighed: "I don't blame her, why should she be like this?" Da Zhuang followed me out of the house, and we knew that there would be this day after all, but it was only sooner or later! ”

Qiao Dazhuang's death, if Qiao San would remember his hatred on Li Siniang, it would not be possible to mix it outside.

"Da Zhuang is a member of our family, and we will not be good about this matter, and Third Brother Qiao will also mourn and change."

Qiao San still has the matter of the dart game to deal with, and naturally it is impossible to take revenge for Qiao Dazhuang, so Xiao Chenyu said this.

Afterwards, Xiao Chenyu continued to follow Uncle Qi to identify the corpse.

Seeing that Xiao Chenyu was a little interested, and he was not afraid of the dead, he taught some details on the identification of corpses, which was more nuanced than the knowledge in the books for Xiao Chenyu.

Qiao San also listened very carefully, because these things could not be easily learned.

"Second master, the county government came to the officer, saying that he came to check the cause of the death of the eldest brother." Zhang Laosan came in to pray.

Xiao Chenyu and the three of them turned their heads to look outside, and the two officials with knives were standing in the courtyard with a servant, and the faces of the officials were very impatient, and they were probably reluctant to come to such a place, feeling unlucky.

Although there were some doubts, why did the county government take the county government to personally investigate the cause of death of a subordinate of the Xiao family. But Xiao Chenyu still calmly ordered: "Please come in!" ”

He followed a servant in and saw that the coffin had been opened, which saved him a lot of trouble.

After bowing his hand to everyone, and then lighting a stick of incense to Qiao Dazhuang, Qiao San opened his tools, Qiao San frowned when he saw a pair of tweezers and knives in his hand, and said in a low voice: "What do you want to do?" ”

He glanced at Qiao San and the other two with some fear, and then turned his eyes to the official for help.

"What are you doing, this is what the lord ordered, saying that he wants every person in our county who died suddenly to record the specific cause of death. Do you want to disobey the master's orders? "The official has a fox and a fake tiger posture, and he is a reprimand to this group of people.

He can be sent in, but you can imagine that he is either a newcomer or a stupid one.

Obviously, he is both.

Xiao Chenyu tidied up his sleeves and walked in front of him to block him, but looked at the servant: "This person is a descendant of my Xiao family, and my master, I did not report the case, nor did I agree with you to check and touch him at will, what's more, what do you mean by this?" Do you want to destroy his body? ”

The inspection is not a casual review.

The most important thing now is that Xiao Chenyu doesn't know what the purpose of these people is?

Maybe the examination of the body is fake, but there is a conspiracy behind it?

However, the host family does not agree, even the government has no choice, but for the sake of a family member to do the right thing with the people of the government, will the gains outweigh the losses?

The official who was waiting outside still came in, but there was no way, that stupid official actually drew a knife in someone else's mourning hall.

Although it was just a threat, Qiao San took away the knife, and the person was pressed to the ground with his backhand and couldn't move.

Qiao San's red eyes stared at the officials on the ground, almost wanting to kill people.

"What is this for? Why don't you let him go, are you going to rebel? When the official who came in saw this scene, he hurriedly blurted out and shouted.

"Rebellion? The hat is too big for us to wear. Xiao Chenyu sneered: "You came to the door for no reason, first you wanted to be disrespectful to the deceased, and then you dared to draw a knife in the mourning hall, don't you understand the truth that the dead are great?" ”

It is impossible to refute the heavens, and the dead are great.

Later, the official hurriedly restrained his anger, smiled and arched his hand, and said: "Everyone, everyone, you have misunderstood, we will not be disrespectful to the deceased, I think there is a misunderstanding?" Just say it. ”

Xiao Chenyu was also reluctant to confront Mai Mang with the people of the yamen, so he asked Qiao San to release the people first, and then said to the officials who came in later: "I don't know why the two bad masters came from?" ”

"Who can not listen to the master's orders? We don't want to wade into this troubled water, it's not impossible. I hope that a few people will be convenient, and we will not use the knife, just take a look at the errand, how about it? ”
