Chapter 520

Xin Yi also saw Cheng Cang get on the boat.

The wooden window was facing the shore, and he passed through the Sizhou pier under the night, his tall body looked particularly energetic among the busy crowd.

"At this point, do you think there is something urgent?"

She said something to herself, but she saw that Xiang Ling beside her blushed.

puff!Xin Yi blinked slightly, "You can send a pot of tea to the king later."

Xiangling: "Sister..."

Seeing her shyness, Xin Yi smiled happily, "It's just a pot of tea, why are you blushing? If you don't want to give it away, then I'll let Xingyuan deliver it, Taoyu is also fine..."

"I'll go, I'll go, it's okay if I go."

Xiang Ling didn't know her temper, gave her a shy look with a smile, twisted her body and went out.

Xin Yi sat at the wooden table by the window, looked at the vinegar fish on the plate and the fish soup in the cup, sighed, and called Xing Yuan.

"Take the dishes to the stove and warm them up. The king of the county will bring them out after he wants to eat them. I'll go to the third girl's place for dinner."

The three children ate alone in the cabin, because of Fu Jiuqu's damn cleanliness, he would be awkward no matter who he was eating with except Xin Yi, and Xin Yi had always been used to this matter in order to take care of his face. with him.

Now he refuses to eat it, so she will use it with the child.

This ship is very big, fully loaded with supplies, and has many cabins. The three little ones eat in the third room on the right. When Xin Yi entered, the three little guys were eating, and there were fish soup and vinegar fish on the table.

Xin Yi froze for a moment, then laughed.

"Is the fish my aunt cooks delicious?"

When Yi Nian and Er Nian heard the voice, they put down their chopsticks to greet each other.

San Nian looked sleepy, his movements were half a beat slow, his little face was flushed, and he softly called "Mother" coquettishly, and then he didn't continue.

"what happened?"

Xin Yi stepped forward to touch her forehead, which was slightly hot.

"Is Sambo uncomfortable somewhere?"

"No..." San Nian shook her head, clinging to Xin Yi like a poor child.

"Stick out your tongue, mother, take a look." Xin Yi held her chin and coaxed her gently, "We can't hide it from mother when we are sick, and we can't drag a minor illness into a serious illness."

San Nian stuck out her tongue obediently, seeing Xin Yi frowning, she whispered:
"Sambo isn't sick, just dizzy. Just sleep and he'll be fine. I don't want my mother to worry about it."

"Silly boy." Xin Yi put her little hand away, felt her pulse, and after a moment of silence, asked Xingyuan to go to the warehouse, brought the medicine box over, found a bottle of pills, fed it to San Nian, and let Taoyu boil again Ginger soup.

"In a few hours, the city gate will be opened, and after entering the city, the lady will give you a prescription to pick up medicine."

San Nian nodded sensibly, drank a bowl of ginger soup as ordered by her mother, and then closed her eyes.

Xin Yi didn't dare to leave, so he ate some food casually and guarded in the Sannian room.Seeing that their sister was sick, Yi Nian and Er Nian also sat obediently aside, staring at her nervously.

When Fu Jiuqu came in, San Nian was just sweating, his face was flushed, and his hair was soaked.

"Xingyuan, go get some hot water." Xin Yi ordered the girl, while bending over to wipe the child's sweat, Yi Nian and Er Nian also hurriedly handed over the handkerchief to the mother.

The mothers were in a hurry, and no one paid attention to Fu Jiuqu standing on the side.

Fu Jiuqu coughed lightly, "What's wrong with San Nian?"

Only then did Xin Yi realize his existence, and turned to look over, "I've been making a fuss on the boat for the past few days, and I may have caught a cold. I just took the medicine and let her sleep for a while..."

Fu Jiuqu passed her belly calmly.

"Let them watch, you go to rest early."

"The child may still have a fever in the middle of the night, so I have to keep watch."

Xin Yi responded casually, then asked him with a frown as if thinking of something.

"Cheng Cang came to see you at this time, why?"

Fu Jiuqu glanced at her: "I've been away for the past few days, and a strange thing happened in Sizhou City..."

As soon as Xin Yi heard something strange, Xin Yi became interested, and his eyes were much brighter than before. Seeing her like that, Fu Jiuqu raised his brows slightly, and looked back at Yi Nian and Er Nian.

"It's getting late, you two go back to your room and go to sleep."

The two children heard that there was something strange, and they were pricking up their ears to hear the following. Unexpectedly, Uncle Fu would kick him out?

Although they were all curious, Yi Nian was obedient and obediently responded.

With a bitter face, Er Nian looked at Fu Jiuqu and then at Xin Yi.

"Mother, Uncle Fu, how can you treat a child like this... I'm so hungry, I probably won't be able to sleep. If a child can't sleep, he won't grow up, and he will get sick like the third sister."

Fu Jiuqu frowned, "What reason are you looking for? Go to sleep now!"

Xin Yi saw that Er Nian's mouth was flattened, with dissatisfaction written all over his face, and he smiled lightly.

"What Uncle Fu wants to say must be something children can't listen to, and that's why I'm telling you to go down. If you listen to things that you can't hear, then you won't be able to sleep."

"Mother..." Er Nian pouted when she saw that her mother was not helping her.

Xin Yi patted him on the back reassuringly, winking at Yi Nian.

"Go to sleep, you have to get up early to study tomorrow."

A thought cupped his hands: "Yes, my son will retire."

Er Nian was dragged down by her brother amidst the sound of mourning.

After the two children were gone, Fu Jiuqu pushed back the two girls and told Xin Yi with a serious expression.

"Cheng Cang said that there is a magic operator in Sizhou City, who can calculate the sky, the earth, the people's hearts, and everything can be calculated."

Xin Yi didn't expect him to say this, and smiled slightly.

"It's just bragging. Don't these pretenders always play like this? What's so weird about it?"

Fu Jiuqu stared at her solemnly.

"There is a rich family in Sizhou City. The youngest son has been missing for more than a month, and the police have not found a trace for a long time. There are rumors that he was kidnapped by a kidnapper, but the fortune teller said that the person in the river looks like a scorched corpse... Said that there were 11 other people in the river, all virgin boys and girls."

Xinyi's goosebumps came out, "Really?"

Fu Jiuqu said: "The family was skeptical, hired people to salvage for three days, and finally fished out the corpses from the river. A total of twelve charred corpses sank neatly in the river, as if they had been set on fire. ..."

Xin Yi pondered for a while, "If I were an official in Sizhou, I would definitely send someone to arrest that fortune teller immediately to find out the truth!"

"Caught."

Fu Jiuqu said it lightly, but Xin Yi noticed something unusual in his tone.

"How to say?"

"The fortune teller told me that the twelve boys and girls were burned to celebrate the birthday of the river god. As for who worshiped the river god, he couldn't figure it out. He only figured out that it was a man who came from the southeast. come..."

Southeast of Sizhou?
Xin Yi subconsciously thought of going to Yangzhou.

"Then, what happened to the fortune teller?"

"It was released the next day."

"Let him go so easily? Don't the government suspect him, in order to achieve his reputation as a fortune teller, he murdered him for money?"

Fu Jiuqu glanced at her and smiled coldly and charmingly.

"The fortune teller made a fortune in prison for the prefect Lu Yongfu, saying that the concubine of the prefect had an affair with the housekeeper, and that the concubine's son was not his own..."
