Dali Temple Small Dining Room 2

Chapter 38 Barbecue ([-])

Liu Yuan's face was a little ugly, and he said: "Her family members thought it was shameful and indecent, so they hurriedly covered it up and buried it."

Lin Fei fell silent.

Liu Yuan looked at Shangfeng who pursed his lips and remained silent. Even though the expression on his face was the same as usual, he still tasted a bit of wind and rain from it.

Of course, the wind and rain did not come for him after all.

"Who did the little lady get close to before the accident?" Lin Fei was silent for a long time, then spoke again, looked at Liu Yuan, and asked, "What kind of sweetheart does the young lady at Jiji have? What is the relationship with the gift-giver who was kidnapped and sold as a child?"

Liu Yuan looked at Shang Feng and said with admiration: "My lord is right! I heard that the two families have known each other since that incident. The young lady has a childhood friendship with the gift giver named Lu Qing. But the young lady The family thought that Lu Qing's family was poor, so they asked for a huge gift, several times more than the local custom, and if Lu Qing couldn't get it out, her family disagreed."

"Oh, that's right! I heard that she sold things across the basket to make up the dowry money together with Lu Qing." Liu Yuan said here, and couldn't help but sigh, "Who would have thought that something happened..."

Lin Fei asked him, "Where is that Lu Qing? What did the little lady say after the accident?"

Liu Yuandao: "Back then her family didn't report to officials, and Lu Qing had a quarrel, but he was dragged back by his parents. Dao's parents didn't want to be troublesome, so why is he meddling as an outsider..."

Speaking of this, for some reason, there was a sudden soreness in my throat.

Thinking of Mrs. Yan who was severely beaten by Yan San, and thinking of the little lady who had an accident, Liu Yuan couldn't help feeling: "Is face so important?"

The little lady is an ordinary family. When this happened, she was buried hastily. The family knew that something was wrong, but they still gritted their teeth and admitted it.A woman of Madam Yan's background can be considered a powerful person, but after marrying Yan San, her father and brother are clearly capable of dealing with Yan San, but for the sake of face, they turned a blind eye and turned a deaf ear.

If others want to intervene, they will be scolded for being nosy, because this is their family business.

After Lin Fei was silent for a moment, he raised his eyes to look at Liu Yuan again: "The little lady's family still lives in the original place?"

Liu Yuan didn't know why Shangfeng asked such a question, but he still let out a "hmm", recalled it, and said, "It's still the original place, but it's been newly renovated, and it's more magnificent than the houses in the neighbors..."

Halfway through speaking, Liu Yuan suddenly fell silent, his face changed several times, and he subconsciously looked at Lin Fei: "Could it be possible..."

"Go and find out!" Lin Fei said, "After that little lady's accident, did her family suddenly become rich?"

Liu Yuan's expression became even more ugly when he said a word. He opened his mouth and couldn't help muttering: "This is also..."

Mrs. Yan's family is not short of money, it is for the sake of saving face, this little lady's family actually...

"This family should not be a face-saving person." Lin Fei looked down at the case file, and said, "The bride price is much higher than the local practice, and it will be said by the neighbors. They don't care, obviously it's a good thing face."

As for what is good, Liu Yuan couldn't help cursing bitterly, "Bastard!"

Lin Fei glanced at Liu Yuan who was scolding bitterly, lowered his eyes, paused, and said: "If everything is as we guessed, this Lu Qing will be brought back and held accountable."

Liu Yuan nodded, thinking of this, and then said: "So, the little county king in the prison refused to say, it is very likely that he saw Lu Qing and recognized the companion who was kidnapped back then. After knowing the inside story, he helped cover it up?"

This statement seems to be quite reasonable.

Lin Fei frowned, and said: "Go and check first, if everything is true, bring Lu Qing back."

Liu Yuan responded, and when he turned his head and saw the setting sun outside, he couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth, and turned around to ask Lin Fei, "Lin Shaoqing, can't I go back today?"

Lin Fei said "hm", spread the file on the table in front of him, and said, "Go tell your family, if you bring Lu Qing back, I will interrogate him overnight!"

Liu Yuan sighed, a little helpless, but he didn't feel any difference: Dali Temple and other yamen are like this, when there is no case, they are naturally idle, and when there is a case, it is possible to stay up for several days and nights and follow the murderer.

After all, the murderer doesn't make a special trip to stare at you to commit crimes while on duty, most of them are sneaky people who commit crimes in the middle of the night.

After coming out of Lin Fei's room, they went to the outer lobby and talked to Bai Zhu and the others, and they all smiled wryly.

Wei Fu, who was a little older, couldn't help but stroked his beard, and frowned, "I was planning to go back to eat evening food, but the meat was roasted at home, which is Madam's specialty! But now..."

Thinking of Master Wang's "amazing" culinary skills, everyone turned off their appetites.

Bai Zhu thought for a while, and suggested: "Why don't you go out to eat..."

"Don't go!" Liu Yuan shook the file marked "Water Ghost" in his hand, and said, "Once it is verified, Lin Shaoqing wants me to arrest Lu Qing immediately and interrogate him overnight!"

This Shangfeng's temper, after these days of getting along, can be regarded as almost touched.On weekdays, he is very talkative, but once involved in a case, he will not keep any sympathy.

After a few people sighed, they had to go to the public kitchen. Facing the old face of Master Wang who didn't even want to look at it, they hurriedly stuffed a few mouthfuls of hard-to-eat evening food into their mouths, so as not to get too hungry, so they took it with them. He left Dali Temple with the dossier and several servants.

Ever since Master Sun and Master Wang became the head chefs of the public kitchen, they no longer have to worry about gaining weight on their bodies. In less than a year, almost everyone in the Dali Temple has lost weight.

They went out to Dali Temple during the evening meal, and when it was half past Xu time, several people came back with a dark, tall and thin young man and his family who were making a fuss.

Lin Fei only glanced at the tall and thin young man, then frowned and said, "Lu Qing?"

Liu Yuan nodded, and couldn't help but sighed again.

Everything was as they had guessed, but for some reason, it made people feel inexplicably uncomfortable.

It’s just that no matter how unpleasant it is, what should be said has to be said, he said: “It’s him! The family of the drowned little lady also confessed. After the accident of the little lady two years ago, it was Yan San and the others who gave the money in private. Hurry up and bury people!"

Although he was frightened, he told the truth.But the little lady's family obviously didn't think there was any problem, and they still said that this was their family matter, and the person who died was their family member, and had nothing to do with outsiders.

"I didn't bother to talk nonsense with them, so I just took them in together." Bai Zhu continued, pointing to the family who was dragged into the prison and still complaining, and said, "Don't report what you know, hide and deceive, According to the law, it should be sentenced to two years, and when the case is over, people will be imprisoned together."

Lin Fei nodded, and looked at the young man who was tied to the stake with his head drooping.

Before Lin Fei could speak, the young man spoke up, and said, "I didn't kill anyone."
