Xuanxue boss, she became rich in ancient times by selling houses

Chapter 117 Isn't Aunt Su curious who the real murderer is?
The moon is dark and the wind is high, and the autumn night is cold.

Before Gu Xixi went out, Wang Shuanghua forcibly put on an extra floral jacket.

Li Junze stood aside, looking at the two with great interest.

Why does he feel that in this family, it seems that he is the extra one?

Probably an illusion!he thinks.

Seeing that Wang Shuanghua and Gu Xixi are like mother and daughter, he must be happy.

Everything is tidied up.

Li Junze held Gu Xixi with one hand, and held a paper lantern with the other.

The two walked forward leisurely.

Gu Xixi didn't say where she was going, but when it was time to reach the turning, she would explain it to Li Junze in advance.

It was obvious that she had already figured out where to go.

In Mingyue Pavilion, Su Qiongyun saw off the last guest of the day.

A maid died in the shop last night, and the news has already spread throughout the streets and alleys of Yanzhou City.

Although there are not many guests today, there are still some.

In fact, at her Mingyue Pavilion shop, there are always a few customers visiting her every day.

Most of them order bone china from other places.

After seeing off the guests, Su Qiongyun was about to go back to the shop when she saw an acquaintance walking not far away.

She raised an exquisite smile and joked, "Xiya, where are you going so late?"

"Whose son is this, so handsome, could it be your husband?"

Gu Xixi blushed and nodded in admission.

"Is the grave moving going smoothly today?"

Su Qiongyun stepped forward and asked immediately. When she said this, her voice seemed to be deliberately lowered.

"Xiya, I'm so sorry, I was supposed to go with you today, alas... I didn't expect that kind of thing to happen last night."

"In the past, I saw Shirley wandering here from a foreign country and looked at her pitifully, so I took her in to work in the store. I never thought that she was actually a spy from Japan."

"Fortunately, the prefect is fair and honest. After he sent someone to check that my shop was fine, he returned my innocence to Mingyue Pavilion."

"Otherwise, I'm a little widow, and it's hard to walk in Yanzhou City."

As Su Qiongyun spoke, a series of teardrops hung on her face, and she wiped it with a handkerchief herself.

That appearance is indescribably pitiful.

"Don't worry, Aunt Su, everything is going well when the grave is moved today."

Gu Xixi blinked her eyes to appease Su Qiongyun and said.

She stared at every subtle expression on Su Qiongyun's face seriously, refusing to let it go.

Sure enough, when she said 'everything is going well', a trace of doubt flashed in Su Qiongyun's eyes.

It was only a short-lived change, but it was still keenly captured by Gu Xixi.

"Qin Butou also said that he asserted that Xueli was not Dongying's spy, and that the real murderer was someone else."

Gu Xixi said seriously, while staring at Su Qiongyun's charming face.

She saw Su Qiongyun's scheming look flitting across Su Qiongyun's eyes like an old fox.

But within a short breath, he regained his calmness like water.

A smile appeared on Gu Xixi's face. A person's face, voice and even eyes can be faked and deceived.

But only when she looked at the same person, her eyes, the complex expression contained in them, could not be deceived.

Before Su Qiongyun could speak, Gu Xixi pretended to be smiling and continued:

"Although the real culprit has not been guessed yet, but the next person who will die, that is, the victim tonight, Qin Butou has already thought of who it is."

"Who is it?" Su Qiongyun couldn't hold back, and asked eagerly.

Realizing that she had lost her composure, she quickly adjusted her mood.

He regained that exquisite smiling face.

"Could there be another victim tonight? It's horrible."

"The one who is going to die tonight is Mrs. Zheng." Gu Xixi said straightforwardly.

"Qin Butou said that he found out that Zheng Huo's family fled famine ten years ago and came to Yanzhou City to join relatives."

"But after Mrs. Zheng married far away twenty years ago, her parents became very anxious and died of serious illness."

"The Zheng family is in Yanzhou City and has no relatives at all, but there are quite a few neighbors who know Mrs. Zheng, Ming Sulan."

"Plus, Zheng Huo is human again."

"So, there is only one reasonable explanation."

"Zheng Huo is a secret agent. They settled in Yanzhou City ten years ago when they were fleeing famine, and they used this as a cover to act secretly."

"The real human tooth head is not Zheng Huo, but someone else."

"The one who will die tonight is Mrs. Zheng, because she is an important witness. If she does not die, the person behind the scenes will be exposed, but it is not her who will die tonight."

"She is the one who deserves to die tonight, but the one who dies tonight is not her."

Gu Xixi is serious
What she told Su Qiongyun was that all these came from Qin Feng's mouth.

But in fact, these are Gu Xixi's own inferences.

Su Qiongyun froze for a moment, and she smiled awkwardly.

"What is Xiya talking about? What is she who died and not hers?"

Gu Xixi suddenly put away her smile, she stopped acting, raised her eyebrows and said:

"Aunt Su, you and Ming Sulan still want Mrs. Ye, when the three of you were young, you were called Yanzhou Sanbeauties together?"

Su Qiongyun smiled charmingly, "It's true."

Gu Xixi nodded and continued: "The three of you are still close friends."

"Aunt Su, why have you never seen Mrs. Zheng?"

"Is it because the former sisters have turned against each other, or is there some other unspeakable secret?"

Su Qiongyun's smile froze on her face.

After a long time, she laughed twice.

"I had a quarrel when I was young, and then Sulan married far away, and she stopped writing letters. Naturally, the relationship will never be the same as before."

Gu Xixi chuckled, "This explanation makes some sense."

After she finished speaking, two police officers came not far away.

It was Wang He and A Si who often followed Qin Feng.

"The two fast brothers just came from Mrs. Zheng's residence?"

Gu Xixi stopped the two of them and asked.

"Exactly." The two of them nodded.

"But walking this way from Mrs. Zheng's house is obviously not in this direction." Gu Xixi reminded kindly.

Wang He and Ah Si looked at each other, their expressions a bit embarrassed.

"Miss Gu, to be honest, Mrs. Zheng is dead."

"The two of us have just returned to the government office, and we have already reported this matter to the prefect."

"Right now, the two of us are going to find Brother Qin and tell him."

"Brother Qin said half an hour ago that he had already guessed the murderer, so he took people to arrest him first."

Gu Xixi made a look of sudden realization.

"So that's the case, I just don't know who the murderer is, two big brothers, can my husband and I go and have a look together?"

Wang He and Ah Si rubbed the backs of their heads for fun.

The other people can't avoid this kind of thing.

It was the first time they had seen it, and there were still people who came along curiously.

"Miss Gu, if you don't think the distance is too far, you can come with me."

Seeing this, Su Qiongyun with an exquisite smile on her face hurriedly said:
"I have a carriage here, if you don't mind, I can give you a ride."

"Then I would like to thank Boss Su." Wang He and A Si bowed to each other to express their thanks.

Su Qiongyun ordered the carriage to be ready.

Gu Xixi asked Li Junze to follow the two policemen into the carriage first.

She herself looked at Su Qiongyun with a smile, and said half-jokingly:

"Aren't Aunt Su curious about who the real murderer is?"
