Full-level real daughter: first-class female forensic doctor

Chapter 93 Mind

Yuan Chen turned sideways and said, "Come in and talk."

Cheng Xueyao was too confident in his feelings and only focused on showing off her sadness. She didn't even notice that his expression was unusually calm when he saw her.

Sitting on the soft stool covered with brocade, taking the warm tea from the man, Cheng Xueyao felt a rare sense of reluctance in her heart.

Yuan Chen is undoubtedly a very good person. The key is that he is very good to her. If he does more than just raise people, she might be able to marry him.

"Master and I will come to visit you soon." She remained silent until Yuan Chen spoke.

This moment brought Cheng Xueyao back to her senses, and she quickly refused: "No."

Yuan Chen raised his eyebrows, "What's wrong? Are you unwilling to marry me?"

Cheng Xueyao shook her head quickly, "No, I do. But yesterday I lost my face and reputation in front of so many people, so I can't hurt you."

"I don't care." Yuan Chen said.

But in the past, no matter what she said, he would go along with it, instead of deliberately playing devil's advocate to force her to tell the truth.

Cheng Xueyao was visibly more panicked than before. She put down her teacup and took Yuan Chen's hands. Her eyes were misty and her voice choked up: "Brother Yuan, I can't let you be implicated by me. I can't imagine that someone else is pointing at you behind your back, saying You’re the one who married a woman with no reputation like me.”

In the inner room, Xin Nuo was chewing the pastries and almost couldn't hold back her laughter when she heard this.

Look at what people are forced to do. In order not to marry Yuan Chen, they would say such self-deprecating words without hesitation.

Yuan Chen and Xinnuo had the same idea at this time. He looked at Cheng Xueyao with a touch of coldness in his eyes, "You said your reputation has been damaged. If you don't marry me, what kind of family can you marry?"

Cheng Xueyao was stunned. She didn't expect Yuan Chen to like her so much that she had to find another excuse. "It will fade away as time goes by. At worst, I will cut my hair and become an aunt, but I can't delay you."

Yuan Chen nodded: "You actually think about me so much."

I thought I would hear words such as "Then I can't let you down" and "I will take care of you forever", but what rang in my ears was a man's pleasant but seemingly cold and ruthless voice: "I have no choice but to follow your wishes." , today’s engagement is cancelled.”

Just give up?

Cheng Xueyao felt disappointed. Although her purpose was to reject Yuan Chen's engagement with unreasonable reasons, her hope was achieved despite her overwhelming reluctance to give up.

She thought that this handsome and tall man could not bear to hold her and say that even if the marriage failed, he would protect her in the future.

After all, her withdrawal at this time was for the sake of his reputation.

"I," Cheng Xueyao looked at Yuan Chen's tears and seemed to be very uncontrollable. She rushed over and wrapped her arms tightly around Yuan Chen's neck, choking and saying, "I can't marry you because we are not destined. .”

The unique fragrance of the woman's body broke the smooth sense of smell, and Yuan Chen unexpectedly found that he could not make any waves towards the soft and fragrant body hanging in front of him.

He patted the woman's shoulder and then pushed her away, "You will get married in the future, so please respect yourself."

Hearing this, Cheng Xueyao's heart was filled with knots.

Does Yuan Chen like her as a person, or the Cheng family she represents behind her?If it is someone you really like, this time will definitely be extremely painful.

This man was out of his control.

when did it start.

Could it be that his previous deep affection was just an act? He had never had any deep affection for her, and therefore he had never been under her control.

Cheng Xueyao was so confused that she didn't even notice what Yuan Chen said, and was sent out the door in a daze.

"Miss, how are you?"

The maid waiting outside saw the young lady coming out, and quickly stepped forward to support her, and quickly put the power in her hand on her.

"It went smoothly," Cheng Xueyao said, holding the maid's arm, turned around and got into the car, "He has me in his heart, so naturally he can't bear to see my tears."

The eldest maid actually didn't quite understand what the young lady was doing. After getting in the car, she asked cautiously: "At this time, the young lady blocked Yuan Juren's proposal of marriage and devalued herself. From now on,"

"Don't worry about it in the future," Cheng Xueyao picked up the power, her body swaying slightly as the car moved, "I have such a dowry from my mother, no matter what, I can marry a person who has a better future than Yuan Chen."

It's just that Yuan Chen is very rich, so she doesn't want to just kick him away.

Besides, the slight flaw in her reputation is not a disadvantage to her now. After all, it is impossible for the adopted daughter of the Cheng family to marry Ruiming Hou as his official wife.

Then she can only be a concubine. With her appearance, she can be a concubine. What will Ruiming Hou's future wife be?

In fact, whether she is a wife or a concubine, if her husband likes her, she can live happily in the backyard.

"Hahaha," Xinnuo couldn't help laughing when he came out and saw Yuan Chen's hapless face, "Second senior brother, I guess Cheng Xueyao is arrogant and didn't like you in the first place. But you Be generous, even if she doesn't marry you, she doesn't want to push away such a good spare tire like you."

The girl was still holding the pastry in one hand, but she was laughing so hard that she rubbed her belly, and tears came from her eyes.

Yuan Chen said helplessly: "Don't choke on your laughter."

But when Xin Nuo thought about Cheng Xueyao's behavior just now, she couldn't help but laugh.

Yuan Chen poured a cup of tea and handed it to her, "Drink some water."

Xin Nuo drank directly from his hand.

Like a small animal running to the small pool on the side of the road to drink water after having fun, the slight weight on Yuan Chen's hand made his heart feel sour.

The small cup of tea was quickly consumed.

"Are you still drinking?"

Xinnuo shook his head and threw the pastry into his mouth, "I'm going home."

Yuan Chen put down the tea cup and sent her out, "If you don't have a pleasant stay at the Cheng family, come to senior brother."

In the past, when he didn't find a benefactor, Yuan Chen had imagined countless times how he could repay her by being kind to her in the future. When he mistakenly thought it was Cheng Xueyao, he would often lend a helping hand behind his back, and felt satisfied that he had repaid her a little.

But when he learned that it was all mistakes before and it was his junior sister who really gave him the cat's eye stone, he realized that she didn't need anything.

He doesn't need to go out of his way to repay the kindness he received back then, as long as he sees her live happily, it's enough.

Her life is easy and easy to satisfy, so she doesn't need anyone to please her.

Xinnuo didn't know what Yuan Chen was feeling. Looking at his eyes that were so soft that they were almost dripping with tears, Xinnuo waved his hand and left quickly.

The tenderness of the second senior brother is a bit too much to bear.

Xin Nuo bought some breakfast on the way, went home and ate with her grandparents with the food Chun Yue brought from the kitchen of Cheng Mansion.

Grandpa had to go out for something, so Xin Nuo left with his grandfather after dinner.

The deeply apologetic old man said to his old wife, who was left alone at home again: "I'll bring you Wang Ji's steamed pigeon when I come back."

Xinnuo also said, "Grandma, I'll bring you sesame sesame cakes from the outer city."

"Okay, okay," the new and old lady waved their hands for the grandfather and grandson to leave quickly.

She is fine at home alone. Although her granddaughter can help her with things like a little lady when she is quiet, most of the time she is naughty and lively. Helping is worse than causing trouble.

As for the old man, he has been sticky all his life, and it is quite refreshing for the new and old ladies to be apart for a while.

After the grandfather and grandson left, the pear courtyard instantly became quiet. There were birds sitting on the pear trees outside, causing a startling chirping.

The most abundant thing in this pear garden is pears. There are three or five here and five or six there. The environment is very good.

The green pears are hanging all over the branches, which is very pleasant.

The new and old ladies asked Chunyue to bring a stool and cut off some too dense green pears.

Chunyue came over with a small half basket of cut pears and said, "Old lady, have you thrown away these?"

In fact, it would be a pity to cut a good pear like this.

The old lady stretched out her hand and plucked it, and said with a smile: "There are quite a few. Wash them and dry them. I will use this to make young pear wine."

The little girl and the old man at home all love this bite.

Her cooking skills are not very good, but she is quite good at making fruit wine.

A servant woman passed by outside the pear courtyard and heard voices inside. She glanced inside. As soon as the words "young pear wine" came into her ears, she couldn't help but tilt her head and look deeper.

In the small courtyard, under the lush pear tree, sat a very ordinary old woman.

Wearing a wide brown tunic with a tuanfu pattern that most old ladies wear, she has a smile on her face. She doesn't look like an ordinary farm lady, she looks more like an old landowner lady.

However, this servant girl became more and more familiar to her.

"Young pear wine," the servant girl repeated, patted her thigh, and left quickly.

In the yard, when the new and old ladies heard the sound and looked out, they only saw a piece of clothing.

In the Songhe Hall, the wealthy Mrs. Cheng put down the delicate cattail leaf fan in her hand and asked again as if she heard wrongly: "Who are you talking about?"

"Chu family, the eldest lady of the Chu family who is living outside and can't be found." The servant girl still can't hide her excitement.

It wasn't that she had any friendship with the eldest lady of the Chu family, but that someone who everyone thought was dead reappeared, and it was still the excitement of gossip in her own home.

What's more, Miss Chu was the person Mrs. Cheng disliked the most back then.

If she hadn't been homeless due to an accident, Mrs. Cheng might not have been able to marry the deceased old man.

When he was young, the old Marquis was very talented and proficient in martial arts. When he was less than 20 years old, he was named the Crown Prince by the then Zhongyong Marquis. He was the dream lover that all the noble ladies in the capital aspired to.

It's just that this person only loves the eldest lady of the Chu family, who is like a pitiful little girl.

Miss Chu lost her mother when she was young. At a young age, she had to protect her younger brother and earn a living under her stepmother's hands. She usually went out for parties and wore clothes that were several years out of date.

But there is no reason for reasoning in everything in the world. Back then, the old man really only had Miss Chu in his eyes.

Mrs. Cheng is the daughter of a minister, and her uncles all hold important positions in the court. Although she is only the daughter of an official family, many girls from established aristocratic families with titles have to be treated politely in front of her.

There is only one Chu Ruofei, who can firmly control a man's mind and make her suffer a lot of unspeakable and unexpressable depression.

God knows how happy she was that day decades ago when she heard that the team following her stepmother back to the rented home to visit relatives was attacked by bandits and Chu Ruofei was nowhere to be found.

Unexpectedly, half of the person was lying in the coffin, and he heard news about the woman again.

Mrs. Cheng looked thoughtful, "Did you read that correctly?"

The servant girl nodded affirmatively and almost swore, "Old slave is definitely not wrong. She also said something about young pear wine."

Young pear wine?
Back then, Chu Ruofei was best at making fruit wine. During the New Year, everyone she was friends with would receive the fruit wine she made. Using such a shabby thing as a New Year gift, wouldn't it mean that she couldn't buy good gifts because she had no money?

Thinking that when the old Marquis was here, he would collect all kinds of fruit wine every year, and then put it aside with dissatisfaction after tasting it, Mrs. Cheng felt sour and uncomfortable.

Even though the old man had been dead for four or five years, Mrs. Cheng still couldn't get over this hurdle. She could never forgive Cheng Yunshan for his perfunctory treatment of her.

It's really a pity that Cheng Yunshan died early. If he were alive today and saw the woman he had wanted all his life turned into an old woman and married to an old country man, I wonder if he would feel sick when he thought about the woman he had been thinking about for so many years.

Mrs. Cheng was only worried for a while and then she smiled happily and said: "If it is really her, we sisters are quite destined. If you invite her over, just say that I have never thanked the person who raised my Cheng family's granddaughter in person. We’re going to have a banquet today, so I need to thank her properly.”

Xinnuo and Chu Wei arrived at Jingzhao Mansion Yamen almost at the same time. When they saw him, they felt as if they hadn't seen him for one day, especially since they had dreamed of some unpleasant things last night, and they wanted to see him even more.

Xinnuo jumped out of the car and ran to Chu Wei, asking: "Are we still investigating those girl mummies cases today?"

"No, you sort out those files at home," Chu Wei said as he walked towards the gate of Jingzhao Mansion, but in order to take care of Xinnuo's pace, his steps were obviously much smaller, "Piaofeng and Xiao Shan have already gone to investigate the Qianji sect. .”

Xinnuo: "Are you suspicious that the Qianji Sect has some special sacrificial habits, and those girls who died of blood loss were all captured for sacrifice?"

"You have a quick mind." Chu Wei was really surprised. He also looked through the records of the Southwest Yi area for several days before asking someone to check in this direction. "The patterns formed by the blood around the female corpse in Luohua Lane are not accidental. , but someone wiped traces on the land in advance to guide the blood to flow out."

The two of them were talking and walking on the path with gossip on both sides. Xinnuo didn't feel panic at all about such a bloody topic, and asked further: "You have found out the meaning of that pattern."

Chu Wei was much taller than her, and he could see her face from one side of his eyes. He felt doting on her as a little girl for being interested in such things.

"Well, I found it out," he said. "It's very similar to a magic circle from the White Rhinoceros that is said to be able to imprison a person's soul in the eighteenth level of hell. The murderer should be someone who hates the dead very much. Currently in the Yamen The police are investigating people who had a grudge against the deceased in the past."

Xinnuo said in surprise: "Then the Cheng family is also in this range."

The Cheng family is not only there but also the main target of suspicion, especially Mrs. Cheng and the girl in front of her.

Seeing her seemingly surprised but actually excited expression, Chu Wei secretly shook his head. If it was really her, she would be too stupid.

Xinnuo was completely unaware of her senior brother's suspicion of her, and said happily: "When will I ask the Cheng family? I have to ask for leave that day."
