Working part-time as a wife is too busy

Chapter 102
Liu Zhou also heard that the cold words implied a warning, but he didn't know the details of what happened 20 years ago. He only knew that the little sister he had always loved had done a scandalous thing that humiliated the family, and in the end he didn't know what happened. trace.

"Uncle, the old lady would like to invite Mrs. Leng to move to the small Buddhist hall." At this time, a maid reported from outside the door.

Liu Zhou's eyes darkened, his mother had ignored all affairs in the house for many years, it seemed that what was said in the hall just now had reached her ears, but she didn't know what she wanted to say to Leng Yan.

Although he was unwilling in his heart, Liu Zhou took Leng Yan to the small Buddhist hall of the old lady in the backyard in person. After arriving at the small Buddhist hall, the old lady of Bofu asked Liu Zhou, his son, to wait outside and let Leng Yan alone go in.

The Buddhist hall was a bit dark, with a faint scent of sandalwood lingering in the nostrils. After entering coldly, I found an old woman with silver hair kneeling and sitting in front of the small Buddha statue, twirling Buddhist beads devoutly.

"The prison inspector Leng Yan has seen the old lady." Leng Yan greeted the old lady kindly behind her.

"Master Leng, you don't need to be too polite. I have been ignorant for many years. If there is any negligence, please forgive me." The old lady got up by herself, and then sat down on the chair beside her.

"The old lady is serious. I don't know if the old lady has something to do when she sees me?" Leng Yan sat down on the lower chair under the old lady's signal. , so Leng Yan is very respectful to her.

"Master Leng is here today because of my disappointing third daughter? Did Master Leng find her whereabouts?" The old lady tried her best to keep calm, but Leng Yan was still sensitive to her hidden excitement.

Leng Yan didn't answer, but took out the portrait from his arms and handed it to the old lady: "Does the old lady recognize the person in the portrait?"

Although the old lady said she was ready when she got the news just now, her eyes turned red all of a sudden, touching the familiar face on the portrait, a tear flowed down the old man's vicissitudes of face.

"This is my youngest daughter Liu Zhixiang, Lord Leng, what's wrong with her?" The old lady still asked.

Leng Yan could see that the old lady's serious pain did not seem to be fake, but in order to solve the case, he had to tell the truth, so he told the old lady that because the case of Liu Fei'er's murder involved another murder case, in the disused Ziwei Garden The body of an unknown female murdered was found in the well. Through the reconstruction of the skull, it was discovered that the deceased's appearance was exactly the same as that of Liu Zhixiang, the third daughter of the Weiyuan uncle's mansion.

"How could this happen, my poor Xiang'er, how could this be happening!" The old lady obviously didn't want to believe the bad news, she burst into tears immediately, hearing the sound of crying, Liu Zhou and the old lady's personal nurse rushed in.

"Mother, are you okay? Don't be sad, maybe this is not the little girl at all, Master Leng made a mistake." Liu Zhou said comfortingly, supporting his mother.

Unexpectedly, the old lady glared at him angrily and said: "Nonsense, this is clearly my Xiang'er, how can I make a mistake when I am her biological mother." She began to cry again.

Leng Yan went directly to the General's Mansion to look for Gu Xiaoya after leaving Weiyuan Bo's Mansion, and when he arrived, he found that Gu Xiaoya was in a good mood playing chess with Rong Yao in the pavilion in the backyard.When did the couple get along so well?

"Leng Yan, you're here, did you find out anything?" Gu Xiaoya woke up after resting for a long time, and found that Rong Yao had returned from the city guard, and the two of them played Go in the gazebo after eating.

Leng Yan walked to the gazebo and sat down, a maid had already brought him a cup of tea in due course, Rong Yao had already nodded to him when he came in, and then concentrated on the chessboard.

"You two are very interested, ha ha!" Leng Yan glanced at the chessboard, the black and white pieces were evenly matched, and they were in a stalemate. "The woman in the portrait has already found out her identity."

"Only the identity was found?" Gu Xiaoya sounded a little disappointed. When Rong Yao came back, she had already told her the identity of the woman on the portrait, saying that the woman was Liu Zhixiang, the third daughter of the Weiyuan uncle's mansion who disappeared 20 years ago.

"What? You already know?" Leng Yan was startled, but he glanced at Rong Yao, and he knew in his heart that he was relying on himself to investigate the case, and there were not many capable people under him, but Rong Yao was different. He doesn't know the details of the family, but it must be more "scary" than he imagined.

"That's right, this woman's name is Liu Zhixiang. She is the sister of Concubine Liu and General Muhu's wife in the palace. But how could someone who disappeared 20 years ago be killed in the Ziwei Garden?" In just half a day, Rong Yao's people are still investigating, so that's all she knows.

Laughing coldly, he looked at the two people and said, "Actually, Liu Zhixiang didn't disappear at all 20 years ago, but eloped with someone. Weiyuanbo Mansion just said that he disappeared because of his reputation."

"Elope? Elope with whom?" Gu Xiaoya became interested, and the women of the Liu family were really worried.

"I haven't found out about this, but Liu Zhixiang's mother told me that 20 years ago, Liu Zhixiang had a private life with a man outside the mansion, and said that he would not marry Feiqing. The old lady of the uncle's mansion never thought that she was the most well-behaved daughter. He would do such a rebellious and shameless thing, so he grounded her in his own courtyard. Unexpectedly, one late night, Liu Zhixiang packed up some small silver coins, left behind a letter, and disappeared without even a maid. " Leng Yan told Gu Xiaoya and Rong Yao about the so-called scandal in the Bofu that the old lady of the Bofu told him.

"What about the letter?" Gu Xiaoya asked.

"The letter is in the hands of the old lady of the uncle's house. I have already read it. The main idea of ​​the letter is that she loves that man deeply and must marry him as a wife. I am sorry for the kindness of my parents for raising me, and I will repay it in the next life. The identity and name of the man was not mentioned in the letter." Leng Yan said slowly after taking a sip of tea.

"This is really strange. Could it be that the man was a villain, that's why he killed Liu Zhixiang, but why did he hide him in the abandoned well in Ziwei Garden?" There are still many doubts about this case.

The murder case 20 years ago was not so easy to investigate, and he got up and left after drinking tea, and not long after he left, the chess game between Rong Yao and Gu Xiaoya also ended.

Early the next morning, after Gu Xiaoya woke up and washed, and was about to go to the front yard, Rong Yao came to her with an envelope and a smile on her face.

"Is there anything good?" Seeing Rong Yao happy, Gu Xiaoya also had a smile on her face, and she always felt that Rong Yao came so early as asking for credit.
