Chapter 37 The Child Knows Her Injustice (1)
There was no one in the hall, only a servant girl was waiting on the side, Liu Qiqiao called the servant girl and said: "Can you go and invite your master here?"

The girl knew that Liu Qiqiao had just saved the young mistress and was now the benefactor of the Lin family, so naturally she didn't dare to be negligent, so she invited Master Lin over in a short while.

Mr. Lin looks to be in his 50s. He doesn't look like a farmer, but rather an elegant scholar. It seems that he has indeed managed the village very well.Seeing that Liu Qiqiao had asked to see him by name, Mr. Lin thought it must not be a coincidence that they came today, so he asked the maid to take Mrs. Wen to collect the silver money, while he stayed behind.

"Master Lin, I don't want to speak ill of you. Aunt Qian went back to Niujiazhuang yesterday and died that night. I know that your old man gave you money for the funeral. You are a kind person, but Aunt Qian didn't die well. I understand."

When Master Lin heard this, he couldn't help but frowned, his face became ugly and he said, "Girl, what are you talking about? I think you saved the lives of our daughter-in-law and grandson today. My old man is grateful to you, but you can't scare me with the matter of life or death. Yesterday, I made my second child run for hundreds of miles, and invited all the bosses in the capital to treat her. "

Liu Qiqiao heard Master Lin's concerns, and hurriedly comforted him: "Master Lin, you have misunderstood, I am not saying that you are a Zhuangzi who seeks wealth and murder, you must be a good person, otherwise today's incident is not such a coincidence. Say To be honest, if it wasn't for Aunt Qian, I wouldn't have come to your village, let alone saved the lives of your daughter-in-law and grandson."

Mr. Lin thought about it patiently, but this is not the reason. There is no such thing as a widow with money, and his family has to prepare for the funeral today.

"Girl, tell me, old man, I'll listen."

Liu Qiqiao thought for a while and said, "Aunt Qian's daughter said that in the middle of the night the night before yesterday, a man went to their room and called Aunt Qian out. Later, she was young and fell asleep before Aunt Qian came back. Wait When she woke up, someone outside told her that Aunt Qian was kicked by a horse. I just want to know who the person who called Aunt Qian out in the middle of the night, could it be someone from this village?"

Master Lin listened to what Liu Qiqiao said was logical, and after pondering for a long time, he said: "Widow Qian lives in the last row of servants' rooms in our yard, and the stables are in the northeast corner of the yard. A dozen or so horses. Our boss opened a horse farm on our village. When we are interested, we will come to run around twice. I am afraid that the horses will be stolen, so I specially set up a stable in the yard, and the yard will be locked at night. No, people who are not from this courtyard can’t get in at all!”

After hearing this, Liu Qiqiao probably had some thoughts in her mind, and couldn't help asking: "Master Lin, what you mean is that the person who called Aunt Qian to go out must be someone from your yard."

Master Lin thought back, isn't that the reason?Sweat broke out on his forehead in a hurry: "I won't believe you if I say it's not. There are several long-term workers living in my family, and they all come to work from other villages. They are all men with families and mouths. They are honest on weekdays. I'm afraid The Widow Qian suffered a loss, and she specially told them not to look at anyone else and have evil thoughts. Usually, the Widow Qian is responsible for cooking for the long-term workers, and takes good care of three meals a day, as well as feeding the stables. It’s not too tiring to feed the horses some fodder.”

Liu Qiqiao said: "Then Master Lin, can you call those long-term workers over, and I'll ask them some things face to face, do you think it's okay?"

"Yes, yes, but they are working outside right now, girl, you have to wait for a while, I will send someone to call them all back."
