Chapter 521 I thought it was a thief
After dinner, Tang Xi sent Tang Xiao back to Xiangyang Pavilion, asked He Shu and Tang Jiu Tangshi to take good care of Tang Xiao, and then returned to Sixiang Pavilion.

At Haishi, as soon as she came out of the space, she heard rustling sounds from outside the window.

Tang Xi's first reaction was to break into the thief. After all, the Tang Mansion is so big, although there are guards at the front and back doors, and there are guards on patrol at ordinary times, but maybe this little thief will be able to use light work, and it may not be possible to turn over from outside the wall.

She hesitated for a moment, and was about to go around to have a look, but unexpectedly, someone knocked on the window.

She paused and frowned suspiciously.

Isn't this little thief too bold?It's all right to sneak in, but dare to knock on her window blatantly?

She hesitated for a moment, but decided to go around the door to have a look.

Hua'er and Guo'er had already been sent back to rest by her, so at this moment, the Sixiang courtyard was very quiet.

There has been no snow in the past two days, so the ground is very clean. If you step on it, there will be no sound as long as you step lightly.

She quietly walked around to the rear window, only to see a slender figure standing outside the window in the darkness.

She found that the figure was somewhat similar to Xie Cheng's.

"Acheng?"

She groaned uncertainly.

The figure looked over upon hearing the sound, and after seeing it was her, he strode over.

"I heard about the matter in Zhongwang Village, so I came here to ask."

When the familiar voice came, Tang Xi suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Did you come in over the wall?"

"Probably." He chuckled softly, "After all, it's so late, it doesn't seem very good to go through the main entrance."

"I thought it was a thief." Tang Xi smiled, "Let's go into the house first."

Back in the house, Tang Xi was about to pour tea for him, but found that the tea was already cold, so he had no choice but to put the teapot back on the table.

"I heard that your relative died in Zhongwang Village? Which one is it?"

He had been busy in the government office for a whole day today, and he returned to Xie's mansion in Youshi, only to hear what Ying Wei said.

Tang Xi said softly, "It's my cousin."

"Aunt Tang?" Xie Cheng pondered and said, "That is, the one you don't like to see?"

Tang Xi nodded, "That's her."

"How did you die?"

"It is said that there is no food at home, and I want to dig ice to fish like others, but I don't want to. The ice surface has become much thinner in the past few days, and people accidentally fell into it and froze to death."

"No more food?" Xie Cheng was suspicious, "Didn't you send a lot of food to their family?"

"Because she gave all the family's money to Tang Shujuan, her second daughter, my uncle was so angry that he divided it with her. She lived with her younger daughter, and my uncle lived with my cousin and sister-in-law. They said they didn't want to go get food from my cousin, so they ran to the river by themselves."

Speaking of this, Tang Xi always felt something was wrong.

With Yang's shameless temperament, he shouldn't abuse himself like this.

She frowned slightly, and she didn't look at the corpse at the time, wondering if it was murder.

But, okay, who will kill Yang Shi?
However, even if it was a homicide, now that the body has been put in the coffin, it is impossible to open the coffin for an autopsy, right?

This is a very unlucky thing in the folk, and, for the deceased, it is a kind of disrespect.

Seeing her indifferent expression, Xie Cheng couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, he wasn't someone the little girl cared about. He was still thinking about how to comfort the little girl on the way here just now. Now that she was safe and sound, he felt relieved.
