Chapter 25 Long Hair

Ordering someone to carry the corpse to Yizhuang for temporary storage, Ye Chengwei led his subordinates and whispered to Lu Xiuyuan as they walked out: "Go and ask someone to find out whether this Chen San had a bad relationship with others before his lifetime, and then understand his nature." .”

Lu Xiuyuan is also at a loss now, thinking of Miss Hua's previous suspicions, waiting to leave the mansion, he said to him: "Yesterday, the officials went to the Hua's to arrest Dou Erlang. During the dispute with Gu Langxi, Miss Hua mentioned that There are a few things, one is about the authenticity of Dou Sanlang's original suicide note, and the other is speculation about the cause of Dou Sanlang's death."

"Go back to the county government office and retrieve all the files of the Dou family's case. I want to fully understand the details of the case."

At this time, Ye Chengwei had faintly realized that this case was not as simple as a simple marriage.

But everyone in the Dou family is cautious, and they might not be able to ask anything.

It seems that she has to personally ask the woman of the Hua family, after all, it is related to her own vital interests.

Only from her mouth can I learn some useful news.

Thinking of this, he hurried back to the county government office with his people.

As soon as he entered the inner hall, he saw a tall and slender figure appearing in front of him.

"Brother, long time no see."

The woman smiled and bowed to him gently.

Looking at the figure approaching, Ye Chengwei's eyes paused slightly, and then he heard Ting An come over and say: "Young master, Miss Shiyin just came back from the neighboring county, and she came to visit."

"Miss He is exhausted, so there is no need to bother."

Ye Chengwei walked unhurriedly to the desk and sat down slowly, and motioned for her to take a seat.

"It's not that I heard my aunt say that my brother has just taken office and is too busy, and I don't plan to ask a friend to help me. I'm a little worried and want to share my worries for my brother."

He Shiyin looked at him affectionately for a moment, seeing that he was unmoved, she quickly smiled:
"I know that my elder brother must look down on me as a daughter, so I didn't come to make trouble, but I kept a set of idle hand-copied Daye law books. This book is not easy to buy in Jiangling City. In the past few years, there have been many Young scholars are pouring into the profession of litigators, and more and more people are studying criminal law. I am afraid that my brother will not be able to find the complete collection of classics in a short time, so I just sent it to my brother when I have time."

"fall."

Ye Chengwei was about to refuse, but suddenly remembered the scene of snatching books with the girl from the Hua family yesterday in his mind.

If the books in the book store were snatched again today, she might have to rush again.

Thinking about the Dou family's matter, the sentence of her case had already been changed, and such a turning point had never been expected to happen suddenly, it was really unexpected.

The promised future will be indefinite, and it will be ended by myself after all.

Since Ms. He's family has spare ones, it's better to buy them.

"Thank you."

Ye Chengwei just took back what he hadn't said yet, when he saw He Shiyin handing in the complete set of Daye Law manuscripts that had been sorted out.

Seeing this, Ye Chengwei hesitated for a moment, and immediately found a book with a brand new cover from his desk and pushed it to the side of the desk, saying: "This "Menglong Huaji" is the only copy left by Mr. Li in the previous dynasty. One volume, for you."

"Elder Li's orphan copy has a price but no market, even if you spend money, you can't get it. It's so precious, how dare my little sister accept it."

He Shiyin's face flushed slightly, and she was flattered.

"It's just bartering, you're welcome, Miss He."

Ye Chengwei spoke calmly, but he had other thoughts in his heart.

In the past few years, my mother has always talked about her goodness in her letters, and the meaning behind the words could not be clearer.

It's just that they are not in the same league. After the incident with the Hua family, he doesn't want to get engaged again.

Knowing that she likes to collect precious books, now I just use the method of barter to thank her for her kindness over the years.

Looking up at the sky outside the hall, Ye Chengwei got up immediately: "I still have some urgent business to deal with, so I won't stay with Miss He."

Seeing that he was about to leave, He Shiyin hurriedly called him to stop, and asked cautiously:
"To enjoy the moon in the Mid-Autumn Festival next month, I have reserved a box on the top floor of the Jinhu Restaurant by the Chu River. I would like to invite my aunt and elder brother to enjoy the moon together. I wonder if my elder brother can do me a favor?"

"I'm afraid I'm not free, sorry."

Ye Chengwei smiled lightly, and was about to leave, when he thought of something, he suddenly turned around, and his expression became a little serious: "I have been studying abroad these years, and Miss Lao He has taken good care of my mother, Ye Mouming is very impressed."

"It's just a little effort, brother don't have to worry about it."

He Shiyin pursed her lips shyly.

"Miss He has great ambitions and dares to compete with scholars and literati in Jiangling City, and I admire Ye Mou."

At this point, Ye Chengwei's conversation suddenly changed: "However, I still have to say some things first. The county government case involves people's livelihood, and if there is a slight mistake, it will miss someone's future or even kill someone. Be careful."

Then, walk away.

Ting An followed closely behind, leaving He Shiyin, master and servant, with a sad look on their faces.

The emotions in my heart turned back and forth for a while.

……

"Where did you put the set of great career classics I bought yesterday?"

After leaving the county government office, Ye Chengwei asked as he walked out.

Ting An patted the back of his head in embarrassment: "It's next to the bookstore in the back hall. I was so busy yesterday that I didn't have time to organize it."

"You don't need to sort it out, just go get it and come with me to Ningyuan Bookstore."

After Ye Chengwei gave his orders, he immediately went to the stables and got into the carriage. After waiting for Ting An to finish picking up the books, he hurried towards the south of the city.

When I rushed to Ningyuan Bookstore, I didn't meet Hua Rujin, but I met Shu Jinxuan.

The two bowed hands to each other, Ye Chengwei glanced at the carriage behind him, and asked suspiciously: "Miss Hua did not come with Mr. Shu?"

Hearing him mention his cousin, Shu Jinxuan looked cautious: "Our Rujin family moved to a new house today, and we are cleaning the yard with our uncle and aunt."

The first few words also deliberately increased the tone to show emphasis.

Not knowing why he came, he raised his eyes to look at the book store, and said casually: "I took advantage of the gap to buy some urgently needed medical books."

"I see."

Ye Chengwei nodded thoughtfully.

"Brother Cheng Wei, do you want to find your sister-in-law?"

Shu Jinxuan sensed that something was wrong: this person just said yesterday that he would have no future, but today he took the initiative to look for him, and he didn't know what he was up to.

"It's some official business."

Seeing that his expression became tense, Ye Chengwei smiled, and quickly changed his words: "It's just that I know some trivial things about Dou's family, and it doesn't have much to do with her."

Hearing this, Shu Jinxuan's tense nerves relaxed. After telling him the location of the house, the two hurriedly said goodbye.

Ye Chengwei went to the newly moved house of Liufang, while Shu Jinxuan walked straight into the bookstore.

Early in the morning, Hua Rujin, Cai Baiwei, Hua Junnian and his wife moved all the packed packages into the new rented house in the south of the city. After busying themselves in the yard for several hours, they managed to tidy up everything.

Although Shu Jinxuan verbally agreed not to help hire an ox cart, he still asked the coachman to hire a few nimble handymen in the city to help clean the yard without telling the Shu family.

The handymen were sweeping the front yard, while Hua Rujin and his family cleaned up the rooms in the inner yard.

Although this house was not considered gorgeous compared to the big families in Jiangling City, it was considered a luxury villa in her era.

Just thinking about it, I feel that the monthly two taels of silver is worth the money.

There is a large open space in the outer courtyard. Apart from the two handy rooms on the left near the corner of the door, there are two guest rooms in the center on the right. The main house in the middle faces south, and the study and a small side room are connected to the left.

In the far right corner are the kitchen and the hut.

There are back doors on both sides of the living room in the main house, connecting to the inner courtyard.

In the narrow inner courtyard, there is a larger bedroom on the east side, and two smaller wing rooms on the west side, both of which have windows facing inward.

Langfang is adjacent to each other, and in the middle stands a small rockery that has long since dried up.

After arranging the main room and the east room, thinking that the two little Doudings were young and the two rooms on the west side were temporarily unused, Cai Baiwei planned to clean up the rooms first. A place to stay.

Walking into the side room at the back, Hua Rujin led Hua Youen and Hua Muyang, two little bean dings, who were looking around. Cai Baiwei touched the clean small wooden table, bed, and wardrobe in the room, and suddenly looked surprised: "If Jin, let alone this room is much cleaner than other rooms."

Hearing this, Hua Rujin also hesitated for a while, checked around the bed, and suddenly found a very long hair at the head of the bed.
