Chapter 45 Crying with joy
  The sky was getting brighter, and the arrival of the princess brought a few more people to watch outside the lobby. They did not leave until they retreated.

Afraid of being in the way, Zhang Songming could only pull Su Mu to the side, "You don't know yet, right? Your sister is back and she's hooked up with a big shot! My mother said that man's carriage even has gold wheels. Yes! Your family may have great luck!"

"My sister is back? Are you serious? Are you telling the truth?" Su Mu raised his hand and wiped his face. It was like smiling for the first time since he didn't know how to use his face. His smile was extremely ugly.

Paired with his exhausted face, it was really unbearable to look at.

Zhang Songming hit him on the shoulder: "Cheer up! This is true, this is not true, then what is true? I won't lie to you."

A strange light flashed in Su Mu's bright eyes, and he grabbed Zhang Songming's arm excitedly: "So how is she now? Is she doing well? Has she suffered?"

Zhang Songming scratched the back of his head: "Brother Muzi, don't get excited. Actually, I haven't seen Sister Susheng yet. I also heard what my mother said when she came back."

Su Mu also knew that the Zhang family's aunt didn't like Song Zi having contact with their family, so she wasn't too surprised by this.

He calmed down and almost cried with joy: "It's good to be back, it's good to be back, it's good that she's fine."

"Alas." Zhang Songming sighed, looked at him steadily, and frowned: "Your mother is really cruel. She was the one who sold Sister Susheng without telling you. If my mother hadn't heard it with her own ears, I can’t believe it, you said that human hearts are made of flesh, why is she like this? This heart is too cruel!"

My sister was sold by Ah Nai. When Su Mu heard this, her mind went blank.

Wasn't my sister abducted from the village? Grandma lied to them!
  All of Su Mu's eyes came closer in an instant, and there was a coldness in his eyes.

"Your sister actually looks pretty good! My mother said she might have a better life than you." Zhang Songming was startled by his appearance and quickly comforted her.

His mother's original words were a bit unpleasant, so he didn't say them directly, but the meaning was pretty much the same anyway.

Seeing that Su Mu's eyes softened, he cleared his throat: "My mother said that your sister came back on horseback yesterday, and she chased your grandma with two swords and chopped her in the buttocks. She was so scared that your grandma immediately followed her. Your eldest brother and his family have divided their families and now they have moved to those shabby houses at the foot of the mountain."

This time Zhang Songming didn't dare to breathe again, and said in one breath: "But your sister and the others didn't suffer. She asked many people to move, and your grandparents and uncle's things were almost emptied."

The more Su Mu listened, the more he felt like he was dreaming.

He raised his hand and slapped his face hard.

It hurts! This is not a dream!

He was surprised and delighted at the same time: "The family is really separated, did Li Zheng agree to it? Is there a separation agreement? Uncle, they will really let things be moved away? They didn't make a fuss?"

"Your grandma is being chased and killed. Do you dare not to separate the family? When Li Zheng came, she also advised not to separate the family. My mother also said that your sister was crying at the top of her voice and refused to separate the family, saying she was afraid of affecting her and your eldest brother. reputation, but you also know your grandma's temper, so you immediately pulled Li Zheng and said that we wanted to separate the family."

When he was at home, Zhang Songming could only listen to his mother talking nonsense to him, which made him dumbfounded.

This time it was finally his turn to look at Brother Muzi looking so stupid.

Zhang Songming said in a coquettish manner: "Do you know why Sister Susheng emptied everything, but your uncle and grandparents didn't dare to fart?"

Su Mu Leng glanced over and Zhang Songming shrank his neck: "Your grandma wanted to give your eldest brother arsenic, but your sister caught him on the spot. Don't worry, your eldest brother is fine. Anyway, because of this, your sister said she wouldn't move anything. , I need to report it to the official. I heard that after the things were moved, your father was even angry. "

After listening to the process, Su Mu felt like he had breathed out a breath of bad breath.

Their family was extremely unlucky. The eldest brother fell down the mountain inexplicably and was depressed. The second brother could step on the air and fall when he went out with his eyes wide open. Every time he tried to do something small to his grandparents and the others, he always got the backlash.

Xiaowu was okay, he didn't seem to be unlucky, but he kept getting stoned when he was eating, so he could only eat with caution.

The previous family separation failed, and he also threatened him with a knife, but the result was not ideal, and he almost accidentally cut Xiao Wu.

The second brother secretly broke the latrine board at night so that grandma could eat it when she went to the toilet at night.

The family was separated, and her sister also came back. As a twin brother, Su Mu was ecstatic: "I will..."

Halfway through the words, his expression turned ugly, "No, I can't go back now." The county lieutenant will go to the cashier's wife's house later to look for evidence, and the other party allowed him to accompany him to investigate the case.

"Song Zi, listen to me. I promised Xiao Wu that no matter whether I find a job before noon today, I will go home. But now I can't leave my uncle's side..."

Su Mu hesitated for a moment and then said: "Whether uncle is released or not, I will go back today, but it may be a little later."

"Do you want me to go and tell you that you are safe? What about your uncle? Do you want me to tell your brother and the others too?"

Zhang Songming glanced at the street behind him: "It's almost dinner time, and my father probably has enough people by now."

Originally, Su Mu wanted to take Uncle Zhang's ox cart back early today, otherwise he wouldn't have picked up his uncle outside Qianyuan before dawn.

"You are like this..."

Su Mu whispered in Zhang Songming's ear.

Zhang Songming blushed a little, "The first part is okay, but can't you go back and tell Sister Susheng the last part?"

"Go if you are told. I didn't tell you." Su Mu's ears were red and she was a little embarrassed, but her tone was confident.

"Ming'er, don't be afraid. It doesn't hurt. It doesn't hurt. Dad will go find a doctor for you right now."

The servants carried Qian Mingsheng out, followed by Qian Yuanwai in a hurry.

At the same time, the county captain also walked out of the court with several government officials.

He looked around and set his sights on Su Mu: "I would like to go to Mr. Qian's outer house and question his servants one by one. I promised you to participate in this case, so are you willing to accompany me? It's up to you."

The yamen servant followed the county captain and walked out.

After saying goodbye to Zhang Songming briefly, Su Mu quickly caught up with them.

Money house.

The vermilion gate has a majestic stone lion on each side of the gate.

Officer Qian was worried about his son and wanted to stop pursuing the case, but the county lieutenant stopped him with one sentence: This matter is not the responsibility of one person. There are two ways to deal with the case. One is that you falsely accuse Mr. Er and must be punished; the other is that Lu Shubai’s theft is true and he will be punished in accordance with the law.

There was no other way, so Qian could only ask the yamen servants for help to ask a doctor to see Qian Mingsheng's injuries, and he summoned all the servants in the house to the front of the hall.

When the county captain interrogated the servants, Su Mu was also listening.

As one person after another was interrogated, the county lieutenant couldn't help but become worried.

Why did so many people get nothing after asking questions?
  Butler Wang was the most suspect. However, on the day Lu Shubai stayed overnight, Butler Wang was sent to make purchases. He was not at the mansion the whole day and had no time to commit the crime.

As for the other servants, they were basically ruled out of suspicion. None of them had entered Lu Shubai's room. They had no access to his things and had no motive for committing the crime.

In desperation, the county lieutenant could only go to the room where Lu Shubai lived to explore.

Su Mu did not follow him. He and his uncle had someone they suspected, but Qian Mingsheng was not awake, so he wanted to go to the kitchen, warehouse, stables and other places to find someone to inquire about Qian Mingsheng again after the people dispersed. See if you can find out the other party's motive for committing the crime.

Unfortunately, after searching most of the house, he could not find any useful clues.

Just when Su Mu thought he wouldn't be able to ask anything, the chat between the two maids gave him new ideas.

 People don't seem to like these recent chapters, so I'm going to speed up the progress and maybe write a little more to end this plot point.
