Chapter 142
Gu Yingying guessed that the "Brother Dong" mentioned by this woman should not be someone close to Yan Zhifu, but probably someone close to Xuanfeng.

Otherwise, Yan Yuan would have taken Liu Erzhuang and his wife away and found a reason to kill them, but would not tell the truth to the people outside.

This makes no sense.

Gu Yingying looked at the patient's wife with puzzled eyes, wondering if there was any grudge between Liu Erzhuang and Brother Dong before he was alive?

Or, if Liu Erzhuang is gone, he will come here specially to say something to the members of the Liu family?

The patient's wife smiled slightly and said:

"I just heard a little bit when I was passing by the cemetery. I don't know if it's true. The meaning of what that brother Dong said is that Liu Erzhuang had benefited from him a lot when he was alive. But he entrusted Liu Erzhuang None of the things Zhuang went to do was done for him.”

Gu Yingying nodded slightly to the woman, expressing that she could understand and she wanted to express something.It should be that Liu Erzhuang did not help Big Brother Dong with anything during his lifetime, which caused Big Brother Dong to suffer a loss.

That's when they came to settle accounts with the people of the Liu family.

Perhaps in Brother Dong's view, everything that Liu Erzhuang owed him should be repaid by Liu Erzhuang's relatives and friends on his behalf.

"Brother Dong said that Liu Erzhuang caused him a loss, and his fellow clansmen should compensate him!" The patient's wife spoke softly when she said this, "I'm telling you something, but don't tell others. know."

Gu Yingying said sincerely:
"Don't worry, I won't go out and talk nonsense."

After all, he stretched out his hand and made a gesture of swearing.

When the patient's wife saw it, she breathed a sigh of relief and told her: "In fact, that Brother Dong has come to us several times in the winter and twelfth lunar months of this year. He came here twice to see my husband's family. My relatives buy rice, but not flour."

Gu Yingying immediately had the answer in her mind, if that person didn't buy flour, he must have stockpiled some flour.

Otherwise, is there any reason not to buy it?

Chinese New Year is coming, who doesn't want some flour to make dumplings?
"Didn't you say that Brother Dong is covering his face? Then how did you know that he is the one you have seen before, who came to your relatives to buy food?" Gu Yingying was worried that this woman would I got the wrong person, so I asked.

The corner of the woman's lips curled into a hint of sarcasm, and she said: "He came to us to buy grain, he must have come at night. The situation in our village, I believe my husband has already told you that we are not allowed to sell grain. For people in other villages. He must know."

"It was mentioned to us." Gu Yingying was very frank.

"Brother Dong came here once, and it was brought by my uncle's friend, butcher Yin..." The patient's wife told the truth.

As soon as Gu Yingying heard the words "Yin Butcher", the original owner was kicked into Lanjiang by that person's wicked woman, and she herself was embarrassed by that person's daughter in every possible way.There was obvious resentment in his eyes!

That murderous Yin Yuejiao's father was actually a close friend of the woman's in-law's relatives.

I don't know if they are going to join forces to harm others after they become friends, or what?

The patient's wife saw that Gu Yingying's eyes became serious, thinking that she had mentioned someone she shouldn't have mentioned, which offended Miss Gu, so she stopped wisely.

But Gu Yingying didn't hear what the woman said, and immediately realized that she shouldn't show her bad emotions.But I couldn't say it, at that moment, why couldn't I control myself?
He pretended to be curious and asked:
"and also……"

The patient's wife didn't dare to tell the truth after hearing this, but she was even less interested in lying.So he asked straightforwardly: "I think, you seem to have heard of Butcher Yin, maybe you have heard something bad about him?" Or, when you heard me mention him, you would be so upset ?
"Hey, did I just hear about the butcher who sells meat in Fucheng who hurt people?" Gu Yingying didn't mention the matter between her and Yin Yuejiao, but just talked about how bad Butcher Yin is.

"Although my family also feeds some pigs and sheep, but on weekdays, when relatives come to the house, they have to go to the butcher's shop in Fucheng to buy meat from Butcher Yin and the others. Everyone knows that the meat in their butcher's shop is The whole Fucheng is not considered expensive. But he and his disciples are often short on us..."

The patient's wife couldn't help snickering when she heard this.

"How important is it for me? So that's all there is to it? Oh, butcher Yin is in business. It's okay to weigh a little less meat occasionally. It's a little selfish."

As soon as I mentioned this, I suddenly remembered, didn't their family sell grain to Gu Yingying?
The woman then smiled awkwardly and said:

"It's as honest as me and my husband. I'm not bragging about it. It's really rare these days."

"That is, you two, how can Butcher Yin compare?" Gu Yingying didn't think that this woman was praising herself, but also admitted this fact.

Even before that, she and her family members rarely went to Butcher Yin's shop to buy meat.However, it was true that the man liked to entrap customers.

Not only did she hear this from the folks in the village, but she also heard from Sun Ying and the others.

It can be seen that Butcher Yin often cheats honest people out of money on weekdays.

"However, Butcher Yin treats others badly, but he doesn't treat my relative badly. It is also because of this that most of the pigs and sheep fed by my relative have been sold to Butcher Yin over the years. "The patient's wife pointed to the granary and said to Gu Yingying:
"The grain in my family's granary is not as much as that in my relative's granary, half as much."

Gu Yingying heard the subtext of the words, the woman wanted to say that her relative raised a lot of livestock, but could save a lot of food.

It is rare.

Fucheng, Mo Lane.

In Liu Qiaoxiu's rented house, Gu Yingying also heard the other party mention something related to Dong Ningyuan.

"...I didn't go to Gujiazhuang with Xinlan's mother. Apart from not wanting to leave here, lest it would be inconvenient for me to receive letters, there was another reason. I wanted to find out something."

I already guessed in my heart that most of the things that Aunt Xiu wanted to find out were related to Yan Shao and the others.

But I also understand that it is a bit of grievance between Aunt Xiu and Yan Shao.Since I am an outsider, I don't want to ask too many questions.Just listen to what sister Xinlan and aunt Xiu have to say.

But if they had asked themselves when they were talking, what would they suggest?She must tell the truth.

"We also investigated some things in secret." When Xu Xinlan said this, her eyes fell on Gu Yingying.I wanted to hint at Aunt Xiu with his eyes:
Perhaps sister Yingying knows some things you want to know.

Liu Qiaoxiu understood instantly, and returned Xu Xinlan's "I understand" look.After thinking about it, I asked Gu Yingying about the things I learned in the past few days, especially the things related to the members of the Gu family:

"Tell me and Xinlan that I went to Lion Town to find someone to buy food today. Do you know that not long ago, Dong Ningyuan was entrusted by Wan Wan to go to Lion Town to help Mrs. Gu and the others buy food? Over food..."

Gu Yingying's heart sank.

When the patient's wife mentioned Brother Dong before, she also thought that that person might be Dong Ningyuan.

But it's just a guess, not too sure.

Now that I heard what Aunt Xiu said, I had to believe that that person was really Dong Ningyuan.
