Late one night half a month ago.
Yanping County, the family of cattle dealer Jia Yi.
Young detective Xu Zhen took a bag of poison, climbed over the wall and sneaked into the yard, heading towards the cowshed behind.
What surprised him was that the lights were on in Jia Yi's house so late at night, and there were figures shaking in front of the windows, and bursts of babies crying could be heard.
Xu Zhen could have lowered his head and sneaked into the backyard to poison one of the cattle.
But when he heard the baby crying, he instinctively stopped.
"Oh oh oh..." At this time, a woman's voice came from the room to coax the child, "Good baby, don't cry, don't cry..."
But no matter how much he was coaxed, the child still cried.
"Oh," the woman sighed and said, "It's all because of my weak body and lack of milk. I can't even feed my child! Ahem..."
The woman seemed to have lung disease and was coughing constantly.
"Don't worry, it will get better," the voice of the male owner Jia Yi came from the room, "When our cattle are taken care of, we can hire a good doctor for you and he will definitely cure you."
"Oh," the woman sighed again and said, "I'm really worried. We borrowed so much money. If we can't sell this cow, how can we live? Ahem..."
"Don't worry," the man said naively, "If they don't like us, how can they lend us money? I picked out these cows after observing them for a long time. When the farming season is busy, they will definitely be able to lend us money." Sell it for a good price.
"Oh, don't cry, don't cry," Jia Yi sat next to his wife, coaxing the child and comforting his wife, "Mom, when we sell the cows and make money in the future, we can live a good life. Well, I’ll cure your disease, raise your child to be healthy and fat, and then renovate our old house so that we don’t have to worry about rain leaks in the summer..."
"Well...don't just think about us," the woman said calmly and thoughtfully, "don't forget that there is your second uncle, ahem...he is already a grown man, so you have to find a marriage for him. .
"Also, when we have money, don't let him be a postman anymore. Banditry is serious now and the roads are dangerous. It's too dangerous for him to run here and there every day!"
"Oh," Jia Yi praised, "my sister-in-law is better than my mother, and everything is going well for the family. What do you think I, Jia Yi, did in my previous life to be able to marry such a gentle and virtuous wife like you?"
"De Xing," the wife said with an angry smile, "hurry up, the child peed, change the diaper quickly!"
"Oh, yes, yes..."
Hearing the words of the couple in the room, Xu Zhen sat down with his back against the wall, feeling very uncomfortable.
He looked at the bag of poison again and felt that the small bag of poison was particularly heavy.
As long as this bag of things is put down, this family will be destroyed...
…
Wow...
There was a sound of water, and Xu Zhen poked his head out of the hot water in the tub. The thick steam made him feel particularly comfortable.
He was taking a bath at the moment, but he was unconsciously checking the memory of the young detective in his mind.
The young catcher was kind-hearted, but unfortunately his fate was unfavorable.
Now that it's me, we can't wipe out the good thoughts in our heart, we have to live a good life!
well……
Things in the world are dangerous, and people's hearts are not as old as they used to be.
Look around, everyone is evil.
If you want to survive in such a harsh environment without violating your principles, it seems very challenging, right?
Moreover, the people around him are not as simple as he thought. From the county magistrate Song Zhili to the head catcher Cheng Xiao, to the ordinary government officials and police officers, everyone is calculating and good at thinking, and they are not just NPCs.
If you want to use tactics in front of these people, you must be extremely careful...
After taking a bath, Xu Zhen came to the living room.
The meal is ready, and my wife has been waiting for it for a long time.
She stood aside submissively until Xu Zhen sat down and picked up chopsticks, then she slowly sat down opposite Xu Zhen.
"Huh?" Xu Zhen was surprised to see that today's dinner was particularly rich, and there was even half a sauced duck. He asked hurriedly, "What is this?"
"Oh, my second cousin is here," Youmeng quickly replied, "I know you love sauce duck, so I brought half of one to you, and..."
Saying that, Youmeng took out a piece of broken silver and put it on the table.
"This is also given to you by my second cousin," Youmeng Qingse said, "Same as before, don't let your aunt know..."
oh……
Looking at the broken silver on the table, Xu Zhen felt a surge of warmth in his heart.
My uncle's family has no sons, only a pair of twin daughters. The eldest daughter is named Han Hanyu. She was drafted into the palace when she was fourteen years old.
The second daughter's original name was Chen Hanbing, but because she became a teacher at Jinxiu Study Hall, she changed her name to Chen Wenxin.
The Daxuan Dynasty encouraged women to study, and there were private schools for women everywhere. She Wenxin studied in a study since she was a child. Because she studied hard and achieved outstanding results, she stayed in a private school and became a teacher after graduation.
This second cousin is three years younger than Xu Zhen. Perhaps because she is equally kind-hearted, she has the best relationship with Xu Zhen. She knows that Xu Zhen is in need, so she often comes to help.
Xu Zhen picked up the silver, put it in front of Youmeng, and said, "In that case, you can keep it! To support the family."
"Ah?" Youmeng was surprised and waved his hand hurriedly, "Master, this is not possible, why don't you use it to pay off your debt quickly?"
Seeing Xu Zhen narrowing his eyes, Youmeng timidly changed his words: "Young... Young Master..."
"No need," Xu Zhen grabbed You Meng's little hand, handed the money into her hand, and said, "You don't have to worry about repaying the debt! You... um..."
When he clasped his little hand, Xu Zhen saw that Youmeng's sleeve was stained with red blood, and it also exuded an unpleasant smell.
oops……
Only then did he remember that the pig blood that had been splashed on the door had been cleaned up, so naturally it was his little wife who wiped it away.
Alas, Xu Zhen cannot help but feel distressed. Such a young girl should be loved and cared for...
"No, no..." Youmeng broke free and said timidly, "I still have some here, enough for home use. Hey... old... master..."
Unexpectedly, Xu Zhen grabbed his little hand again, forced the broken silver into his hand, and said distressedly: "When I finish the case at hand, I will buy you new clothes, keep the money!"
"No, no need, really no need..."
While speaking, she deliberately blocked a certain part of her clothes.
Xu Zhen knew that a new patch had been added there.
"You have a dream," Xu Zhen could only console him, "You were right before. I'm considering selling the house, and then we can pay off the debt, so we don't have to worry about it in the future!"
"Really?" Youmeng was surprised.
"But," Xu Zhen said, "there will never be such a big house in the future!"
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter," Youmeng said excitedly, "As long as we are no longer threatened by those evil people, what if we live in a thatched house with the young master?"
Tsk tsk...
Xu Zhen smacked his lips helplessly. He was moved at first, but then an imperceptible fierceness flashed out of the corner of his eyes.
He sighed in his heart, it is really abominable for these bullies to cause harm to the world. Just because of their presence, how many people are like You Meng, living in fear all day long?
"Alas," thinking of this, Xu Zhen could only "comfort" his little daughter-in-law, "I have a dream. If we really live in a thatched house in the future, I'm afraid we can only live in one room, one bed, and one quilt. Alas... …”
"..." You Mengteng blushed, her young and timid but red-as-flame face was so fascinating...
