Chapter 58 What is the origin?
But if she was wrong, why would the woman look at her by the roadside of Xing'ergou.

If she was an ordinary village woman, how could she have the guts to stare inside even though she knew she was a female family member of the Shen residence?

No one stipulates that the guards cannot be women.

In addition to sending bodyguards to the Qin Palace, Iron Camp also has shadow guards.

And this kind of shadow guard who is close to each other, sometimes in order to avoid people's eyes and ears, often recruits women.

This woman is of the right age, if she carved the puppet, then she also knows martial arts, so it is more suitable.

And since she knew it just after she entered Xingergou, did she always know that the original owner was in Xingergou all these years?Does she know her recent situation?
"What's the matter with you, girl?"

Yuan Bei was a little worried by her expression.

Yuan Bei didn't know what happened when she went out in such a hurry just now, and then came back after so long with a heavy heart.

Shen Xi lowered his head and exhaled, feeling that he might have thought too much.

Unless it was true that Qi Jiu had been walking around Xing'ergou all these years, it would not be such a coincidence that she would also appear as soon as she appeared.

She drank her tea and said, "Did you find out?"

"En!" Wang'er nodded heavily and said, "This house is now lived by a family named Liu.

"The Liu family is a local squire, and the descendants of the family are promising, so they bought this house for the old lady. But it was not the buyer who changed hands from the girl three years ago, but from a family surnamed Wei. Come—"

"Wait!"

Hearing this, Shen Xi stopped him suddenly.

Changed hands from her three years ago?Could it be that the original owner sold this house by himself?
It has only been a few years since Shen Chongxin and his wife died, and she started selling the house?
She would understand if it was said that they changed hands only recently, but three years ago, the second house was very wealthy, so it would be unreasonable to sell the house just by reaching out!
She looked at them: "Is it sold three years ago? Why can't I remember?"

"Not long after we moved to Xingergou three years ago, someone came to ask the girl if she wanted to sell the house in Qingshi Town.

"The girl refused to sell it at first. Not long after that, someone came to my house and said that the government office in our house was going to be confiscated, so we should hurry up, otherwise we won't get anything if it's too late.

"Later, the girl hurriedly sold it to a man surnamed Wu for a thousand taels of silver.

"But later, not only was the land not expropriated, Wang'er found out just now, but the person surnamed Wu sold it to a person surnamed Wei, and last year, the person surnamed Wei sold it to the current Liu family for 4000 taels of silver! "

Speaking of this, Yuan Bei's tone was slightly complaining, but he didn't dare to make it obvious.

Shen Xi finally understood.

That silly girl from the original owner was tricked by someone!

Selling the house with such a good location for a thousand taels of silver, this Wu must be sure that there is no one around her, so it is a good lie!

It's just that no matter how stupid she is, Shen's family is behind her. Who would be so bold as to directly attack her?

She thought for a while and said, "How long did it take for the man surnamed Wu to buy the house and sell it to the man surnamed Wei? What's the selling price?"

Wang'er looked at the Yuanbei and said, "It's not been out for a month! I haven't heard how much money there is.

"However, it is said that the person surnamed Wu is a person surnamed Wei, because when the house was handed over last year and the deed was signed, the person surnamed Wei showed his face. Monsieur. They're a gang!"

It fell out within a month, and the man surnamed Wei was the master of the man surnamed Wu, so this house was probably targeted by the man surnamed Wei, and the man surnamed Wu was just a puppet.

But since it is a legitimate transaction, why is it necessary to introduce the surname Wu?

Suspicion arose in Shen Xi's heart.

She said: "Can you find out the origin of this surname Wei?"

Yuan Bei shook his head: "It is said that they are from outside Beijing, and they have already left. This made a net profit of several thousand taels, so naturally they are happy and happy."

Shen Xi pondered.

Dare to usurp his family's private property under the eyes of Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Punishment, this is really quite courageous.

I just don't know if the courage of this surname Wei grew up by himself, or was it given to him by others?
"Rang Rang! Rang Rang! The food is served, the food is served!"

At this time, the aroma of the dishes was already coming from the side, and the voice of the little setter was getting higher and higher, so it turned out that this teahouse also serves meals.

Shen Xi regained his composure and looked at the sky, it was already past noon, so he hurriedly asked Wang'er to call someone to serve the food, and first set up the food.

The house in Qingshi Town was lost strangely, and the property and money in other places are almost the same.

If the original owner of the family's property was ruined like this, then don't blame Aunt Pei and Yuan Bei for being so speechless to her.

Although what was lost by the original owner was the private property of the second room, and there were two siblings in the second room, Shen Ruopu was unlikely to reach out to manage it.

But after all, the amount is not small. After learning that he was defeated by the original owner, Shen Ruopu must have had someone check it out, but so far he hasn't heard a statement, which shows that he didn't catch the other party.

If this person surnamed Wei is the mastermind, then he must have a lot of background, and he didn't act casually.

I don't know who it will be, so that Shen Ruopu can't find out?

After eating here, Shen Xi got into the carriage, took Yuan Bei to the nearby area to buy some small gadgets and brought them to Shen Liang, and then went back home.

Wang'er knew that Shen Xin's group of people didn't deal with Shen Xi, so she wanted to take her for a stroll, so she walked slowly back, and it took half an hour before she entered Xing'ergou.

Naturally, everyone who should go out at this time has gone out, so there is no one outside the house except the passing tenants.

Shen Xi walked along the original road from the side door to the front yard of the Xiaokua courtyard, first called Shen Liang to come over to get food, and then went into the room to change clothes.

Aunt Pei and the others felt relieved after she came back, and asked questions while making tea.

Shen Xi didn't want to talk too much, went back to the room, closed the door and changed his clothes, then called Aunt Pei in, covered the door and asked, "Is that Qi Jiu male or female?"

Aunt Pei was stunned, she turned her head and thought for a moment before she said: "I didn't ask either, presumably it's a man?"

She is just a woman in the inner house, and she is not familiar with the court, so naturally she doesn't know much about the types of guards.

Shen Xi sat down, frowned and thought for a while, and then said: "I wonder if there is a woman who sells puppets in the nearby village, with single eyelids, tall and thin, in her early thirties?"

"Selling puppets?" Aunt Pei paused blankly, and said, "Not really. But the girl said there are tall and thin women with single eyelids all over the place. It's just that there are not many beautiful ones with plump eyelids."

After hearing this, Shen Xi covered his face with his hands.

Of course, the shadow guards in Iron Camp should be as inconspicuous as possible, how can they still be plump and beautiful!

"Miss, did you see Qi Jiu?" Aunt Pei came over and asked in confusion.

Shen Xi shook his head and put his hands down: "No. She has a special status, so I can't say that I will see her when I see her."
