Pretending to be jealous in the arms of Dali Temple

Chapter 50
When the three of them left Old Niu's house, Aunt Niu mustered up the courage to tell Su Jizhi: "Master Su, please find out the truth as soon as possible. The generations of our old Niu family are grateful to you."

"Don't worry, I will ask Xiao Shitou to bring someone here immediately. You must tell the doctor truthfully if you have any symptoms and feelings." Su Jizhi turned his head and told Xiao Shitou.

Xiao Shitou was ordered and ran away quickly. Niu Dazhuang was not good at words, and he stood behind Mrs. Niu without leaving.

Right here.

Wan Yan and one of Su Ji entered the courtyard and found that the main room was full of people.

The little girl felt a little uncomfortable.

Su Jizhi looked at her sideways: "There's nothing to be nervous about. You stay by my side. I'll tell you what I'm about to do, and we'll go back to Tongshan Mansion."

Wan Yan nodded, it's not that she can't face this kind of situation, it's just that her identity is a bit awkward, she followed the adult to investigate the case like this, fearing that it would have a bad influence on the adult.

Before the two of them entered the room, a figure ran out from the main room. Wan Yan took a closer look and found that it was Mrs. Qian.

Qian bypassed Su Jizhi, and rushed directly in front of Wan Yan: "Girl, you are finally back, how is the investigation going? Has Guo Wanfu been caught?"

Su Jizhi turned to stare at her with a straight face.

"Auntie, the case is under investigation, you are waiting here, is there anything new you want to tell the adults?"

Having had experience in dealing with the family members of the deceased, Wan Yan did not feel alarmed at this time.

"Yeah, I went home last night and thought about it again. Xi'er was killed and everything in her house was gone."

"What's missing?"

Wan Yan glanced at the lord, and he did not object to Wan Yan's question.

So she boldly asked: "No matter what it is, you tell me, I will record it, maybe it will help the investigation."

"Yesterday when I entered Xi'er's house, I saw Xi'er lying on the ground at first sight. In fact, I saw it at that time. The red agate hairpin on Xi'er's head was gone."

Wan Yan calmed down, red agate was very valuable, she hesitated for a moment, Qian Xier's family was not rich, could she wear a red agate hairpin?
Xu saw what Wan Yan was thinking, and Qian shook her head: "Girl, that hairpin is Xi'er's dowry. I bought it at Fengxiang Jewelry and it was worth 15 taels. I still have the certificate. I won't lie, girl." , must be true."

"In this case, do you remember the style of the hairpin?" Wan Yan looked at Su Jizhi: "My lord, I can draw it."

This was another surprise for Su Jizhi.

"Auntie, tell me again, what else is missing besides the hairpin?" Wan Yan asked, and at the same time took the pen and ink that Li Zheng handed over.

"The broken silver is gone too. Don't be afraid of the grown-ups' jokes. Xi'er and Wanfu's life is not enough compared to the previous ones, but more than the next. The silver is in the corner cabinet, and it's gone."

While Wan Yan was drawing the style of the hairpin, she was still thinking in her heart that there was really a turning point in the case.

The belongings of Xi'er's house are missing. Could it be that they robbed and killed people?
Wan Yan has always liked gold and silver jewelry, and she has also studied the styles of hairpins and hairpins on the market.

Listening to Qian's mother's description, within a short while, a hairpin with a white magnolia flower on it, and a wooden hairpin with red agate on it appeared vividly on the paper.

"Auntie, look, is the hairpin like this?"

Qian was amazed, and nodded frequently: "It's exactly the same, I wonder if the girl has seen it before?"

Wan Yan couldn't help laughing.

Su Jizhi had been watching her from the side, and when the little girl was drawing hairpins, his eyes moved with the tip of her pen.

The little girl devoted herself seriously and immersed herself in the things she liked, and her whole person exuded a completely different light from that in Jiaofangsi.

After finishing the drawing, Wan Yan handed the blueprint to Su Jizhi who was beside him: "My lord, what do you think we should do next?"

Li Zheng also leaned over at this time, waiting for Su Jizhi's order with a flattering expression.

"I've found out the rumors about Niuzhuang just now. Lizheng is now sending people to the dry well in the grove. Fill the dry well with earth and rocks, no matter what method is used."

Li Zheng was stunned, why didn't he think of it before?

He has been troubled by rumors, and only thinks of telling the people of Niuzhuang to stay away from there.

"As for the Earth Temple in the east of the city, I have already sent a small stone back to summon people. The ruined temple can be bulldozed before evening today. You will build a resting place for the people there in the future, and there will be no more rumors."

Li Zheng was in a bit of a dilemma: "Master Su, someone said a long time ago that it is the place of the Buddha, and ordinary people can't get close to it, so...in order to keep Niuzhuang safe, I have never dared to move there."

Su Jizhi sneered: "I did the demolition. If the Buddha wanted to find it, he would settle accounts with me. Tell the people in the village that it was all my idea."

Li was about to say something, but Su Jizhi looked at him sharply: "Are you still worried about the Buddha asking me to settle accounts? How about this, when the ruined temple is knocked down, I will ask the yamen servant to write a notice there, and everything will be handled by the governor of Tongshan Prefecture, Su Jizhi." Ji Zhi is in charge."

Li Zheng grinned, a little embarrassed.

"There is also the matter of Niu Dazhuang. Now he is in good health. As long as he wants to go out, no one can stop him. You are Li Zheng, the last thing you should listen to are rumors."

Li was hanging his head, and his body language told Su Jizhi that he actually believed the rumors.

Su Jizhi was helpless.

The matter was clearly explained, and Su Jizhi was about to leave when a burly, square-faced, sloppy farmer ran into the yard: "Master Su, who is Master Su, I have something to say."

Mother Qian was standing next to Wan Yan, she recognized him at a glance, and hurriedly asked, "Her uncle, why are you here?"

Just as Su Jizhi was about to leave, he stopped and said slowly to the person who came, "I am Su Jizhi, Governor of Tongshan Prefecture."

When the man heard this, he first waved his hand at Mother Qian, then glanced at the people in the yard, and sighed: "I drank too much yesterday and slept until now. When I got up and heard that something happened to Xi'er, I regret it."

The man was full of remorse: "I met Xi'er and Wanfu the day before yesterday. Speaking of which, their husband and wife fought because of me."

Everyone was stunned.

Su Ji took a step forward: "Who are you? What's going on?"

The man squatted in the corner annoyed, with a resentful expression on his face: "I'm Xi'er's uncle, and it's all because of me. Wanfu went out to collect dogs a while ago and was away for five or six days. I happened to go to the shanty town to do some business, and I helped Xi'er did some farm work."

Everyone stared nervously at the man, not wanting to miss a word.

"Wanfu came back the day before yesterday. Xi'er thanked me and gave me a dog. Hey, I ate the dog, but it was a dog that Wanfu used for business. My greed caused a disaster."

Mother Qian took a step forward: "Wanfu ran home in a hurry to look for a dog that day. Is it because you ate the dog?"

The man nodded, and Qian's mother was very angry, and turned to Su Jizhi to explain: "If you say that, my lord, I also saw Wanfu the day Xi'er had an accident."

Su Jizhi looked at the man, then at Qian's mother, his already gloomy face became even gloomy.

Wan Yan also didn't know whether to laugh or cry, how many times did the adults ask, why didn't Mother Qian keep talking about this matter?
