The days when I fished in Daming

"Madam, can you please take a moment to speak?"

He was a little embarrassed when Zheng Xiong stared at him, but now he still wants to talk alone.

But what to say!

As long as a person has a guilty conscience, he will not have the confidence to speak.

Zheng Xiong looked joking. Mrs. Chen declined at first because she couldn't figure out Zheng Xiong's tricks.

"Master Hou, is there anything you can't say in public?"

"Madam, there is something fishy about this matter, and you don't want everyone to know about it!"

Yes, Zheng Xiong looked confident about himself, and his inadvertent actions just now showed that Zheng Xiong was confident.

There were so many people at the door, and I was really afraid that Zheng Xiong had mastered something, and if he said it in front of so many people, it would be irreversible in the end.

Therefore, Mrs. Chen is not resisting.

"Okay then! Lord Marquis, please come inside!"

The ancients did not deceive me, and it was a bit exciting. Zheng Xiong's little heart was beating fast.

Inside, there is nothing wrong with it.

From the outside, this mansion is already different from most others, and there is nothing to say about the inside.

Once inside, go around a wall partitioned by a screen, and walk along the small courtyard to the main hall.

At this point, nothing much.

But come on!
In the reception hall, Mrs. Chen obviously thought this was not a good place to talk, so she took Zheng Xiong to the backyard.

Stimulation is real stimulation.

There is a small bridge and flowing water in the backyard, surrounded by rockeries.

Looking around, there was no one around.

It really is a good place to talk.

The person in front of me was so close that I didn't even have time to appreciate the scenery, and my little heart began to beat rapidly again.

He frowned slightly, obviously not used to Zheng Xiong's unscrupulous inspection, so he suppressed the discomfort and forced a smile.

"Master Hou, you can say something now if you have anything to say!"

After coughing twice to relieve his embarrassment, Zheng Xiong slowly turned his back and pretended to be serious.

"There is something strange about the death of your housekeeper!"

Just such a sentence made Mrs. Chen's heart twitch in her throat and her breathing became rapid.

Being so close at hand, even though Zheng Xiong was not face to face, the gentle breeze was still conveyed to him.

Both were nervous.

Zheng Xiong was the one who had seen the actual operation. It was an excitement that he had never experienced before.

Mrs. Chen was simply nervous.

"Master Hou, why do you ask this?"

The question is, you are not stupid, don’t treat others as stupid!

"Don't you know, madam? If not, I will tell you: Within two hours after death, the muscles begin to stiffen. Within three hours after death, rigor mortis begins to spread, and at the same time, the coagulated blood begins to darken the skin. "

"According to Madam, your housekeeper died in the morning, so at least two hours have passed since then."

"But since what I saw doesn't match up, it can only be that he died not long ago."

"But the housekeeper's body was limp and still warm."

"If I'm not wrong, he died right when I was summoned!"

"Madam is so deliberate that she would rather let him die than dare to let him face me."

Having said this, Zheng Xiong suddenly turned around and his tone suddenly became more serious.

"What is the intention?"

Scared to death!
Coupled with Zheng Xiong's tone, Mrs. Chen was so frightened that she took a few steps back and almost hit the rockery behind.

Zheng Xiong secretly laughed in his heart, this is not a piece of cake, he can pinch it with his hands.

Mrs. Chen was flustered for a while, and then suddenly calmed down again.

After all, if the prediction is correct, this person is also a ruthless person, and it is impossible to break the opponent's defense with just a few words.

Steadying her mind, Mrs. Chen pretended to be calm.

"I'm also very helpless about the housekeeper's death. Maybe it's because of the hot weather!"

I explained it, but it was full of loopholes.

Then he thought of something and continued.

"If the doctor has anything to say, you might as well say it directly. Since you won't explain it in public, you should leave everyone alone and talk to me alone."

"I wonder what prompted the doctor to do this?"

Not convinced, slightly disappointed.

But it doesn’t matter, just play.

"Of course I'm asking for something!" After saying that, he looked at the person in front of him.

Repeatedly, Mrs. Chen had to endure it.

"If the Marquis has any request, it doesn't matter if you say it."

"Isn't Madam still clear about what I mean?"

Zheng Xiong became more bold, more unscrupulous, and more explicit, even if he didn't say it openly.

Mrs. Chen almost collapsed, but she still had a glimmer of hope and pretended to be dumbfounded.

"I don't understand what the Marquis said."

"If it's some gold and silver, Lord Marquis can just tell you the number, and I'll give it to you immediately with both hands."

Shaking his head, Zheng Xiong felt a little overwhelmed.

Fortunately, at this moment, two children rushed out.

Seeing Mrs. Chen talking to someone, she trotted over, nestled in front of Mrs. Chen, and shouted happily.

"mother."

After shouting, he looked at Zheng Xiong curiously.

"Be good, go and play."

"no!"

The two little guys shook their heads, but they were unwilling to leave.

Chen felt inexplicably relieved, letting the two of them hug her thighs, and looked at Zheng Xiong with a hint of apology.

"Master Marquis, the child is clingy. I'm sorry. I hope you'll forgive me."

I was a little dissatisfied. I just arrived at a wonderful place and almost failed~

I was disturbed by two small children.

Maybe God also thinks that this is enough.

After laughing, Zheng Xiong showed a kind smile, ran to Mrs. Chen, and touched the two children.

"So cute."

Chen's face was full of vigilance, thinking that Zheng Xiong was going to do something stupid!

But he didn't expect that Zheng Xiong just made a false shot.

After touching the child, he turned and left.

Before leaving, he did not forget to say.

"I don't have any requirements. I forgot to tell my wife. I am here for the sake of public security in Beijing."

"Chen Donggua in your mansion has been causing troubles time and time again. I am here to reward him and make him remember."

"Since the person is dead, forget it."

"Excuse me for disturbing you, ma'am. I'll take my leave now."

"Ma'am, there's no need to send it away!"

The moment Zheng Xiong finished explaining, Chen's face looked so wonderful.

His face turned from red to white, then from white to green, and finally showed the angry look of being teased.

It's of no use.

Zheng Xiong has been playing yo-yo for a long time.

Not even a shadow was seen, so Chen could only growl helplessly.

"What a good doctor, you are teasing me like this, just wait for me."

Zheng Xiong trotted all the way, looking back from time to time, as if there was a man-eating monster behind him.

It wasn't until he arrived at the door and saw the large army that he regained his composure.

After adjusting his clothes, Zheng Xiong walked slowly.

After passing the butler's body, he casually gave instructions.

"Since the person is dead, let's leave it at that! Let's go to the next house."

In the blink of an eye, the bustling entrance suddenly became deserted.

Only the people in Chen's residence were left, looking at each other in shock.

After a while, Mrs. Chen arrived late. Looking at the deserted door, she was still a little angry.

snorted coldly.

"Is everyone gone?"

"In reply to Madam, the doctor came out and left."

Mrs. Chen turned to look at the butler's body, feeling a little regretful and helpless.

"Pay ten taels of silver from the accountant and bury it for the steward!"
