Liaozhai: I just want salted fish with invincible magical powers

Chapter 31
Not long after, two men were brought over.

One of them was obese and had difficulty walking, while the other was thin and listless.

Although the two men were much different in stature, they looked sad, as if their wives and children had just died.

"Crassman Zhao Si! Greetings, my lord!"

"Student Hou Baicai! I've seen you, my lords!"

It seems that this Hou Baicai is still famous.

Hu Qian said: "Take Zhao Si down first!"

Immediately, two yamen servants took Zhao Si out.

Hu Qian said: "Young Master Hou, when did you find out that your wife passed away?"

Hou Baicai looked at Hu Qian, did not answer, but cupped his hands and said to Xu Yuanfang: "Master, who is this?"

Xu Yuanfang said: "He is Hu Qian, and he is here to assist in the investigation."

Hou Baicai was taken aback for a moment, then snorted and said, "Is that the Mr. Hu Qian who gave the unicorn uniform?"

Then he turned around and bowed to Hu Qian, "Don't blame Mr. Hu, my eyes are clumsy, but since Mr. Hu is not an official of this state, can I not answer your question?"

Xu Yuanfang said: "You..."

Hu Qian smiled and said: "Of course, come here, please ask Mr. Hou to go outside later and bring Zhao Si in."

Hou Baicai walked out without saying a word.

Hu Qian walked to Xu Yuanfang's side and whispered a few words.

After a while, Zhao Si walked in.

Xu Yuanfang slapped the gavel: "Bold Zhao Si! Why did you kill someone!"

Zhao Si was taken aback, and retorted subconsciously: "I didn't kill anyone!"

Hu Qian immediately stepped forward, "Just now Hou Baicai confessed! Said that he colluded with you and killed his wife and children!"

Zhao Si panicked, "My lord, the villain was wronged! The villain... didn't kill anyone at all! I don't even know that good cabbage!"

Master Tongzhi He said: "Then how did your wife and children die?"

When Hu Qian heard this, he secretly thought something was wrong.

Sure enough, after Zhao Sijing asked this question, he immediately woke up, collected himself, shook his head and said: "When I came home, I saw them dead at home. I don't know how they died."

Xu Yuanfang frowned and glanced at Mr. He. The latter also knew that he shouldn't interrupt, so he picked up the tea in embarrassment and stopped talking.

Hu Qian said: "Do you have any conflicts with your wife? Answer after thinking about it, and we will confirm it from your neighborhood later."

But Zhao Si didn't even think about it, so he blurted out: "No."

"Really do not have?"

"No."

"We already know from your neighbors that your child is not your own, doesn't it!"

Zhao Si's face turned pale, he opened his mouth, stood up, and shouted: "You are talking nonsense! That is my own!"

Li Er next to him held him down.

Hu Qian waved his hand, the matter has come to this point, and he can't find out why if he asks again.

So he called Hou Baicai in again.

Xu Yuanfang asked Hu Qian's question again.

Hou Baicai answered fluently, and he couldn't see any questions at all.

When the two left, Judge Qu said: "Or give Zhao Si a severe punishment? Forgive him for daring not to do so."

Hu differently said: "Firstly, there is no plaintiff, and secondly, his wife committed suicide, so how can we use punishment?"

"But if it continues, if someone dies again, then..."

Everyone frowned, just looking at Hu Qian in the hall.

"Qian'er, what eyebrows do you have?"

"My lords, if a couple has been married for a long time and has no children, what will they usually do?"

"I must have a look at the doctor."

"May God make a vow to take care of your body."

"Burn incense and pray……"

Hu Qian said again: "Then, is there any famous doctor in Jinling City?"

Xu Yuanfang shook his head and said: "Don't say no, even if there is, how can people from the following counties come here to see the doctor?"

"Those who sincerely seek a child will come no matter how far away they are."

"No, I haven't heard of such a doctor."

"What about the others? Temples, Taoist temples?"

Everyone shook their heads.

Hu Qian said: "Then ask someone to investigate! Ask the neighbors of the deceased to inquire."

In ancient times, transportation and communication were extremely inconvenient. Otherwise, people from the following counties could be recruited and asked carefully, and some clues must be found.

In the evening, when Hu Qian returned to the house, he met Shen Yuzhen walking over with a painting.

"Msanggong, come and help me look at this painting."

"Avalokitesvara? Is this painted by a lady?"

Shen Yuzhen nodded, "This is Avalokitesvara...I heard that it should be drawn carefully and hung on the bedside. The husband and wife will burn incense and worship in the morning and evening. It is very spiritual."

He said with a little embarrassment: "So I have to trouble my husband in the future."

Hu Qian gently hugged her in his arms, "My lady has a heart."

After dinner, the two burned incense and cleaned their hands, and Shen Yuzhen hung the statue of Guanyin who gave birth to the child on the bedside, and bowed respectfully, and then Xiaohuan and Xing'er changed their clothes and washed them.

Shen Yuzhen gently leaned on Hu Qian's chest, "Sir, do you like a son or a daughter?"

Hu Qian's hand never stopped, caressing inside and out.

"Son and daughter are fine, as long as they are like you."

"But why?"

"The lady is like a fairy, and the child is like you, naturally handsome."

"The husband is too humble. On the night of the marriage, when I first saw the husband, I felt my heart beat and I was happy..."

Just as she was talking, she suddenly felt something strange in her body, and said with a blushing face, "Sir, there, no way..."

Hu Qian said: "I've heard of a secret formula for conceiving a child. I don't know if my wife wants to try it."

She raised her head and looked at Hu Qian, "Master, tell me, I am willing to try anything."

Hu Qian said: "It's nothing special, it's just a gesture."

"posture?"

"Yes, intercourse position."

Her face turned red up to her ears.

"Okay...isn't it just one position in intercourse...what is it like?"

Hu Qian knelt beside her and said seriously: "Of course, the different postures of intercourse have different help for childbirth."

"Is this... really like this?"

Although she followed suit, she turned her head and didn't dare to look at Hu Qian.

"Pillows are also critical, to be in the right place."

She slowly took a pillow and laid it on it.

"Well...and then what?"

"Then you have to look at your husband, and you can't avoid his gaze, or your sincerity will not move God."

So she turned her face slowly, bit her red lips lightly, and looked at Hu Qian shyly.

"Okay, Xianggong will start casting spells now."

"Uh-huh!"

The night passed.

The next day, before Hu Qian woke up, he suddenly felt that Shen Yuzhen seemed to be talking beside him.

He came back to his senses and opened his eyes.

Shen Yuzhen's beautiful eyes were closed tightly, and she seemed to be still awake, but her hands were slowly moving forward.

While grasping, he said softly: "Shangxian, don't worry, if I can conceive a child, I must burn incense and pray day and night, thanking Shangxian for his great kindness."

Hu Qian was taken aback.

Why does she seem to be dreaming about something ghostly?

So he patted her lightly.

She woke up immediately, saw Hu Qian, and said happily: "My husband is really amazing, I really saw the Guanyin of Songzi!"
