Yao's words are not without reason.

Xiao is a noble lady from the Marquis' Mansion and has a very high self-esteem. No matter how holy the coroner is, he is still a lower-ranking and unparalleled person who deals with the corpse. He is not of any quality, so where can he be decent for imperial examinations?

Therefore, after she gave birth to her eldest son and third son, she held them to study. When Chi Shi's father Chi Zhu came here, he asked his son to inherit his father's business and become a coroner.

Old Master Chi Rong, Chi Rong, has a wife and three concubines. Among those three concubines, Aunt Zhang is the daughter of a scholar. Not only does she say that she is childhood sweethearts with Chi Rong, she has also read many books. She is a talented person and is most loved by Old Master Chi, and she gave birth to her second son Chi Ting.

Now Mr. Chi is a coroner under the command of the Yongzhou Magistrate, leaving the old lady Xiao to guard Youhai, but he has brought Aunt Zhang with him. This is a subtlety.

The other two old concubines, one of whom was the surname Liu, was a famous singer who gave birth to a concubine's daughter Chi Yan, and married to a wealthy family in Yongzhou early in the morning;

Another surname is Cao, who is the dowry maid of Mrs. Xiao of Chi, and gave birth to Chi Hai, the fourth son of the Chi family.

Previously, the two old ladies sat and talked in the old lady's room, but the woman disguised herself as a man and walked in the front yard on weekdays, and rarely dealt with them.

"My son, my mother is so glad that you are now a young man. Otherwise, what if you fall into this back house and become a black-eyed person? Isn't it a waste of time?"

Yao said, picking up a lychee, peeling the shell, and handing the meat inside to Chi, "My mother asked you to ask Lu Jin, what does Lu Jin say?"

Chi Shi shook his head.

Yao narrowed his eyes, "Lu Jin is of great character and is born in the Lu family in Yongzhou. Although he is not good at writing, the marriage depends on character. He has no father or mother, and no parents-in-law to serve. As I say, he is a rare noble son-in-law."

"Look at the shoes on your feet," Yao said, pointing to the new boots on Chi Shi's feet. "Why are you so obedient when you think Shang Niang is so obedient? You are still seeing Ying Ju have a good marriage and begging for her to come."

Yao was born in a wealthy merchant family in Yongzhou. Bai Yu made a horse for the church, and the opera was not a joke. After she married into the Chi family, she gave birth to her eldest son, Chi Ying and Chi, and she had two children. The fifth house had no illegitimate son, and only three illegitimate girls.

Chi Yingju is the oldest. In spring this year, Yao told her about a marriage. She was a classmate of Chi Ying and was a student who passed the imperial examination. She was married a few days ago.

"I want to tell her that Lu Jin is good, they are so arrogant that they look down on a little captain. They don't take a mirror to look at them. Are the cats raised by your father considered fame or fish?"

"I didn't ask for it to go to the old lady. The old lady said that she was rich and went to fill in the house. The lady in front had already given birth to two children and one daughter, and the older one was already eleven."

"How old is Shang Niang? He has done something wrong. As he was talking about this, you came in. I told Shang Niang about marriage. Some days, the old lady didn't mention it before. That is, someone from your aunt came, and this happened."

There was no response in the pool.

Yao didn't care. Her eldest son Chi Ying passed the imperial examination last year and is now studying in a college in Yongzhou Fucheng. There is only Chi Shi in the courtyard, and she listens to her.

"Okay, my mother won't bother you anymore. I'll ask Lu Jin to come to your house for dinner another day. He will help you a lot. Although the marriage is not done, you have to have more contact. If you want to go to the yamen today, take the fruit and eat it for Lu Jin."

Chi Shi nodded obediently, "I understand."

Yao complained and felt much more relieved. She swung her handkerchief and went out in a hurry.

Mother Tao, who was waiting at the door, saw her coming out and hurriedly helped her up. "It was just raining yesterday, and the land was not dry, so the lady walked slowly."

Yao sighed and shook his head again, "Every time I encounter something, I will come to tell her. I don't say how powerful she is, at least I don't want to be cheated. I just don't know how much Shi'er can listen."

"Madam, it's not that the young master cannot, it's just that he doesn't want to. He is so smart that he can't solve any case. If he is mentally conscious, the fight in the inner house will be like a child in his eyes."

Madam Tao said, muttering in her heart.

The wife thought Chi Shi was a little lamb, and when others saw him, the wool would be shaken off. Just look at the old lady and you will know.

When Yao left, Chi Shi spread out his palms and there was a small note on it.

She stood up, shook the dust on her robe, looked at the new shoes on her feet, then changed into another pair and headed towards the East Courtyard.

The Chi family is a coroner's family. If the coroner does not take action, it will be impossible to make progress. Therefore, a large area was specially drawn out on the east side of the front yard, which became the training place for the Chi family to take autopsy.

Chi Shi ranked ninth and was the youngest in his family. Now his father and brother have gone to work in yamen in various places. He is the only one who still uses this East Courtyard.

In a corner of the East Courtyard, there is an old locust tree that is unknown how old it is, covering the sky and the sun, making this place look particularly gloomy.

"Sister Six put me a note, what's the matter with me?" Chi Shi opened his mouth, and the girl in green clothes under the locust tree was startled and turned around with her lip.

She looked behind Chi Shi and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw no one following her.

This place is simply forbidden area of ​​the Chi Mansion. Few people are willing to come. If it weren't for the serious matter, she would have 1,000 or 10,000. She didn't want to come here to get into the ghostly spirit.

"Brother Ninth, although our second wife has always been in a bad mood with your fifth wife, during festivals, sister six has never lost your clothes, shoes and socks. Not to mention the brother-sister friendship, but at least... it is also friendly."

"You know, I will get married on the sixth day of next month. But I have a hurdle in my heart. If I don't step over, I can't get out of this door. Sister Liu thought about it and only you can help me."

"I know that you especially want the shop on Changyang Street. Whether this matter is successful or not, my rouge shop will be yours. After that, the entire Changyang Street will be yours."

Chi Shi's eyes lit up and he became happy.

When she buys a shop, she likes to buy one street after another. There is a fish that slips through the net on Changyang Street, which makes her feel nervous. Every time she passes by, she is extremely unhappy.

"What's up?"

When Chi Liuniang saw him asking questions, she was relieved. Then she realized that after saying so much, she was shocked and sweated in her back.

"Ten years ago, a sensational case occurred in the Guan family in Youhai County. The file of the case is now placed in the Youhai County Government Office and has been sealed up."

Chi Liuniang said, biting her lip, as if she had made up some determination, and said, "I want you to re-examine this case and prove that this case is wrong."
