Chapter 3 Su Xuan Visits Huaishu Village
Chapter 3 Su Xuan visits Huaishu Village
"Old lady, since I have taken over the Jinshan County Government, I am naturally capable of helping you make the decision. Just say what you say!" Su Xuan knew why the old man didn't trust her at the moment, but she didn't care about it. She just wanted to find out about the old man in front of her.
No matter what happened, she would know how to deal with it only if she knew what happened.
This is her first step in finding the real murderer for Chi Rui. Even though she is now weak, she must move well, otherwise she will be unable to move forward in Jinshan County.
"The thing is like this. The old woman lives in Huaishu Village. Her husband's family name is Song. People call me Granny Song. She has a daughter called Abi. She married her husband Lin Wanrong three years ago and gave birth to her grandson the next year.
Ji'er, originally the son-in-law was filial, Ji'er was sensible, and the family was harmonious. However, last year, Lin Wanrong went to Beijing to take the exam to make a career, but he didn't want to come back with a bad reputation. His whole personality changed. The old woman thought he failed the exam.
As a result, he was in a bad mood, so he didn't pay attention to it, but his changes really made it impossible for the old woman to connect with Lin Wanrong before." The old woman slowly told the story of the incident.
"Why is this?" Su Xuan asked next, as if she wanted to know a lot of details, which would help her find out the truth.
"He didn't eat spicy food before, but now he gets angry if Abi doesn't add any chili pepper when cooking. He didn't eat fish before, saying that fish have spirituality and cannot be killed easily, but now he asks Abi to cook fish for every meal!
What's more important is that one time the old woman discovered that the bunch of yellow hair that was originally in the middle of her son-in-law's bun was missing, and it was all black hair!" The old woman continued, "The old woman felt that he had nothing to do with his temperament or his hair.
He is not the old woman’s son-in-law. Please make a decision for the old woman and let this stranger return her son-in-law!”
After the old woman finished speaking, she knelt directly in front of Su Xuan and begged Su Xuan.
"Old lady, I already understand the matter. I will find out the truth and let you rest assured!" Su Xuan immediately helped the old woman up, and then said to the small mirror, "Little mirror, leave the old lady's address and send it to the old lady.
Get on the road!”
"Yes!" The little mirror immediately helped the old woman and walked towards the road next to her.
Afterwards, the little mirror returned to Su Xuan and said to Su Xuan: "Sir, it's obvious that Lin Wanrong failed in the imperial examination and became emotionally depressed, which led to his perverse temperament. The old lady must not be able to accept the change of her son-in-law, so she came to us.
, I can’t take care of this matter, sir, and the higher-ups will blame me for delaying the handover of county government affairs for this matter, it’s not worth it!”
Xiaojing felt that the people surnamed Zhao didn't want to take care of it. I'm afraid there was nothing to take care of. It was really not worthwhile for them to waste time on this matter.
"Little Mirror, have you ever thought that no matter how a person's temperament changes, there are some things that cannot be changed, and the people around him know best!" Su Xuan said immediately.
"But Master, have you ever thought about why it was the old woman who said Lin Wanrong had a problem, but not her daughter Abi? Is it possible that Abi, who is Lin Wanrong's wife, will not understand her husband better than the old woman?"
The little mirror analyzed it and said that it felt that this matter was just a mistake and there was nothing to investigate at all.
"But the old woman is willing to expose her grandson to the sun for this matter, and she also wants to find out the truth. I don't think this matter is that simple!" Su Xuan said. It seems that she plans to take care of this matter to the end.
"How about we go to my mother-in-law's house dressed as we are now?"
"Okay, since the young master wants to get to the bottom of it, Xiaojing will accompany him to the end!" Xiaojing immediately responded, and then followed Su Xuan towards Huaishu Village.
In Huaishu Village, Grandma Song's house is the first one at the entrance of the village. It is not a wealthy family, but a small farmhouse made of adobe. If someone pretends to be the son-in-law of this family, what is it for? Is it for this family?
The family is surrounded by walls? It’s really unreasonable.
But no matter what, now that I'm here, I have to go in and take a look at the situation, so Su Xuan asked the little mirror to knock on the door.
A woman dressed plainly came out. When she saw Su Xuan, she said with a wary face: "Who are you looking for?"
"Does Grandma Song's family live here?" Xiaojing asked immediately. This was indeed a knowing question. They had already checked everything before knocking on the door. Of course they knew what they knew. They asked like this at this time just for the sake of asking.
Say hello to this woman.
"That's right..." the woman replied immediately, and then asked, "Do you have anything to do with my mother?"
"Abi, I asked you to cook, what did you do?" At this time, a man's voice suddenly came out, and he immediately questioned the woman.
"Someone is looking for my mother!" Abi looked a little frightened and responded inside without any delay.
Immediately after this man walked out, Abi took the initiative to get out of the way.
"Who are you to my mother? Why are you looking for her?" The man spoke politely and like a gentle man, which was completely different from his attitude towards his wife.
"I was passing by and heard that Granny Song was kind to others, so I thought about coming in to ask for a drink of water. I thought I wouldn't be refused, so I took the liberty of asking for money. It's really rude." Su Xuan said at this time, making up a random one for herself.
reason.
As he spoke, his eyes naturally swept around, checking the details of the people around him. But in the process, the man seemed to have discovered something, and deliberately blocked Su Xuan's sight with his body, and then said: "Abi, here you two
Please prepare some water for the guests to drink before they go on their way, so as not to delay their journey!"
This was obviously an order to expel Su Xuan and others from here as soon as possible.
"Hey!" Abi responded immediately, and without daring to be lazy, she turned around and went into the house to get water.
"Isn't Grandma Song here? I want to go in and see her." Su Xuan asked the man at this time.
"She is unwell and is resting in the house. It is really inconvenient for the two young masters to go into the inner room to rest. Please forgive me for any negligence!" Lin Wanrong said this perfunctorily, and then blocked Su Xuan and the others from the house.
"Really?" Su Xuan looked at the other party questioningly.
"I think you are not just people passing by, but you have some other purpose. Who are you? Why do you want to ask about my mother?" Lin Wanrong seemed to sense something was wrong, and immediately questioned Su Xuan and the others, his eyes full of hostility, like that
It was as if Su Xuan and the others had done something to make him unhappy.
"To tell you the truth, I am the newly appointed magistrate of Jinshan County. Granny Song told me something, and I came to check it out!" After hearing this, Su Xuan directly revealed her identity and planned to go direct.
Go inside right away.
