Chapter 126 The murderer

Madam Fang felt irritable and depressed, but in front of Madam Yun, who had always been like an older sister, she couldn't vent her actual emotions, so she pursed her lips and swallowed the blood beads from her lower lip into her mouth.

It has a fishy smell, with a slight saltiness and a rust smell.

"It's okay, I've always felt bored these days. It's probably time to get angry, and it's going to be fine when the sky clears up." Mrs. Fang smiled, "I'm afraid I'll still rush to do your work at that time.

”

"If you have the ability, just grab it. If you are not afraid of you, you are afraid that you will not grab it." Seeing that Madam Fang smiled again, she felt a little relieved.

There is still a lot of work in my hands, and Madam Yun dares not delay too much, just go to work hard on her own.

Madam Fang cheered up a little, and the needle in her hand pierced into the embroidery cloth.

Manager Du from Linglongfang came over and raised his hand to Madam Fang, "Come here."

Mrs. Fang put down the needle in her hand and walked over, "What's the matter with me, the shopkeeper?"

"I remember you embroidered a birthday screen for a hundred blessings before, and the guests praised you endlessly. For this reason, I gave you an extra two cents of silver."

Manager Du stroked a troubling of goatee beard on his chin and said, "Isn't someone here to book a screen today, it is also said it is for birthday celebrations, and I want to embroider the pattern of hundreds of blessings. I'm thinking about you last time

I also have experience. I will leave this job to you. If the embroidery is good this time, I will be generous and give you an extra liang of silver to pay!"

"Thank you, shopkeeper." Madam Fang was blessed with a blessing.

"But this man brought some silk threads over, saying that they were finally obtained, and they were mixed with silver threads. I thought that they would embroider them at that time, and they would look good with silver light. You can go with me to see them too.

At first glance, I can see if the thing is really real, whether it can be used, and how to get started, I can ask them for the price.”

Manager Du said with all his steps, "The guest is in the flower hall now, so you can go with me."

Madam Fang hurriedly followed and walked to the flower hall with Manager Du.

But the flower hall was empty at this time.

"Where is the guest?" Madam Fang was surprised.

"Maybe he went to the front? You can wait here and I'll go find it." Manager Du looked forward.

Madam Fang stood there and waited.

A moment later, someone came over, but not the shopkeeper Du who brought the guests over, but Qu Zhiwen, who was dressed in the government, led a group of yamen servants to stand in front of Miss Fang.

"Minister...the young lady has met the adults." Mrs. Fang hurriedly knelt down and saluted.

"Are you Madam Fang from Linglong Pavilion?" Qu Zhiwen asked.

"That's right." Mrs. Fang nodded, "I don't know what it's important to find a girl from the adults."

"Some time ago, a male corpse was found in the well in Bayou Lane in Hedong Fucheng. After investigation, the identity of the male corpse was Wei Youshan, a scholar in Jiangnian County. Can you recognize it?"

A hint of panic flashed across the face of Madam Fang, who was lowering her head, and after a moment, he shook her head, "No, I don't recognize it."

"Okay, I will ask a different question." Qu Zhiwen said, "I have carefully investigated everyone in Linglong Pavilion. I heard that you were happy every day two months before the college entrance examination two years ago. Every day,

He rushed to make money by doing embroidery work, and he also mentioned by chance that he would buy a dowry for himself. I would like to ask Mrs. Fang, who was the person you wanted to marry at that time?"

When Madam Fang heard this, she bit her lip and said nothing.

"Since I don't say anything, I will ask another question. More than three months ago, you asked Linglong Pavilion for leave, saying that the elders in your family passed away and were going to go back to attend the funeral, but I checked that you have both parents since you were twelve years old.

Death, I have no choice but to have any contact with my second uncle's family. I came to Hedong Mansion to find work and did not want to have any contact with my second uncle's family anymore. My grandfather's family has no contact. I want to ask, who did you say you are going to attend the funeral?

How old is this year? Why did you die? Who has seen you on the road you took when you returned?"

"I asked you again, Wei Youshan was lost more than three months ago and the neighbors heard a quarrel in his yard. It happened to be the day you took your leave. Inferring that Wei Youshan died and injured, I came from

I learned here in Linglong Pavilion that you have frequent entry and exit during those days and don’t do well in embroidery work. Later, I took a leave of absence for several days due to illness. Since that time, I have been exhausted all day long. Why?”

"In addition, the clothes that Wei Youshan wore were brand new, without any wear, and a little longer, not like the clothes he wore when he was alive, but like they wore after he died, and that clothes were only worn after he died.

, I have carefully compared the materials. The materials are printed forgings that are only available in Linglong Pavilion in the entire Hedong Mansion, and the embroidery skills on them are very similar to what you usually do, exactly the same."

"I suspect that the one who killed Wei Youshan and threw it into the well is your Madam Fang!"

Faced with Qu Zhiwen's questioning, Madam Fang, who had been kneeling straight with her head down and tried her best to kneel down, seemed to have her backbone removed, and could no longer kneel up and just sat on the ground.

After a while, he opened his mouth in a stutter.

"I thought that if he had destroyed his face and could not identify his identity, he would not have doubted this matter on my head..."

It seems that she was discovered after all.

After all, the paper couldn't contain the fire, just as Wei Youshan thought he had already deceived her around, and had no idea that he had already clinged to the Qiao family and wanted to do the Qiao family's son-in-law's business.

It’s a pity that the Qiao family loves their daughter and values ​​Wei Youshan, the future son-in-law, so they come to Linglong Pavilion to buy many fine and soft things.

And she was the one who took on this embroidery life.

When she saw the Qiao family and the Qiao family mentioned Wei Youshan happily and proudly, she was shocked and felt uncomfortable as if she was stabbed by a needle.

When Wei Youshan arrived in Hedong Prefecture, he was a poor and down-and-out boy. His clothes were covered with patches and his meals were rough and difficult to swallow. However, he was a very ambitious person. Even if he copied books and copied letters to others in the market, he still did.

I haven't forgotten to study.

The first time she saw such a hardworking person, she felt that Wei Youshan would have a bright future, so she went to fund it from time to time.

At first it was a sesame cake or two, a bowl of wontons, followed by a coat and a pair of shoes, and later he rented a yard for him so that he could have a place to stay, eat to fill his stomach, and concentrate on studying.

Even when he couldn't go back to Linglong Pavilion on a rainy night, he gave him intoxicating tenderness.

In order to support Wei Youshan's huge expenses in studying, she had to work hard to do embroidery work. Her back and back were sore all day long, her eyes were sore, and even her hands were always covered with scars.

Wei Youshan was full of gratitude and pity when he saw her. He always said that he would wait for him to pass the imperial examination and study in the county school. After he settled down, he took her to Jiangnian County. After the two got married, he studied hard and she did embroidery.

He was able to make a living subsidy for the family. When he was admitted to the juren and became an official, he would let her become a real wife of the official family.

If the second day of Sunday wasn't Monday, I think I'd probably like it...
