Pastoral Valley Fragrance

Chapter 327
The bright spring light shot down obliquely from Yayawa's back, and in the courtyard of Yuanzhi Embroidery Village, under the branches and leaves of peach trees that had grown up a lot, the dappled light sifted down.

There is a wooden table in the courtyard, on top of which there are sesame dumplings and mung bean cakes on a blue and white disk, green and black, and a small bamboo basket next to it contains golden loquats, with leaves stained with morning dew, the front of the leaves glistening in the sun It has a glaze-like luster, but the back is somewhat whitish.

Since Xia Zhi was told by Su Keshou, she has become much more obedient.Gu Yu saw that he was in high spirits, so she sewed a small schoolbag for him with Wang, specially embroidered Xia Zhi's name on it, he was so rare, and immediately carried it to the next door to show off.As a result of showing off, Tingman ran over eagerly, didn't dare to say he liked it, and kept looking at it with greedy eyes. Wang smiled and made one for him, but they didn't bother Su Keshou for things like literacy.Fortunately, Tingman didn't intend to go to the government office with Xia Zhi.

It was later that they learned that it was Xia Zhi who had agreed with him, "Brother, you just stay put and I will teach you when I come back."

Gu Yu felt that it would be great to be able to do this. If Xia Zhi learned by himself, how could he teach Tingman? It was like returning to his beautiful school days. Many students came to ask for advice, and she felt that she had to study hard so as not to be ashamed. Later, her grades really improved.

So when Xia Zhi came back, she sneaked to the next door, she pretended she didn't see it, and told Wang Shi not to worry.

Now, in this beautiful sunshine, Xia Zhi went out with grandpa in the morning, came back at noon, and woke up more consciously in the afternoon, occasionally looking for Tingman to write together or gesture with a small bow and arrow.

As a result, Mrs. Wang put snacks in his schoolbag for him to eat when he was hungry, but he resolutely refused, "Mother, I am going to study martial arts, not to be a cook. I don't want this stuff. My godfather has everything." . ” In the end, when I went out, there was still only a small bow and arrow and a cut book in the bag.

Now, because the summer solstice is not making noise at home, it has become more and more quiet.

Gu Yu and Jing Zhe are sitting in the courtyard and chatting.

"When I came back, I went to the restaurant on purpose. This kind of thing spread to the outside is always a piece of cake. It must have been very embarrassing at the time, right?"

Gu Yu knew that he knew what happened back then, so he pretended to be relaxed, "Naturally, don't worry, big brother, anyway, they won't dare to do anything when I go in. Fortunately, she is not completely confused, and I don't know if there is anything else. The way, seeing me go in, always a hope, finally brought it out."

This she is the familiar Hua Sirou, in a trance, after being rescued, the Hua family found a house for resettlement, and she never saw anyone again.

Jing Zhe took a loquat, didn't eat it, rubbed it lightly with her fingertips, and said with a smile, "Why do you still want to save her?"

Gu Yu doesn't hide anything, she will tell Jing Zhe what happened before when she writes a letter, and if someone asks, she may be perfunctory and say some righteous things.At this time, he was very frank, "Because the Hua family promised to rescue her, if the Hua family comes up with any new tricks in the future, let our shop be the exclusive seller for two years."

Seeing that she is not hiding anything, Jing Zhe's heart is moved, she looks at Gu Yu's smiling face, as if saying that going to the store to buy rouge is normal.Thinking back to the time when I made mistakes first, I always wanted to be good and let her not live those difficult days. Now I suddenly understand that I always underestimated her.But it's too late.Gu Yu, from the very beginning, was not a daffodil in the yard.

The conversation changed, and he asked in surprise, "Gu Yu, is there anything you want to do?"

Gu Yu didn't think about it too much, "I thought about it too, I didn't seem to have anything to do when I swayed like this, but then I understood, guarding my parents, Xia Zhi, and the shop, I also I don’t think so, anyway, the family lives peacefully and beautifully, and don’t think too much about the rest.”

"Hehe Meimei..."

Jing Zhe had a lot to say, and she didn't know where to start, but she had to say, "... The matter of settling down may not be that simple, you've already made it, and most of your parents agree, but if you still Isn't it good to stay in the shop all day?"

Gu Yu paused, she also asked An Jinxuan about the An family matter, he always said that there is no need to worry, everything is going well, she is not worried anyway, An Jinxuan and An Jinlin are together, maybe they can't handle it That An Jinhua?After going through so many things, she found that An Jinhua was not a very strong opponent. According to her estimation, it would only take a year or two before he would mess up. When the time came, it was An Jinxuan who had the final say on An's family. How, gradually dawn.

But Jing Zhe said that the matter of An's family is not easy, he would never lie to himself, is there anything embarrassing?

Jing Zhe paused every word, and it was difficult to say, "Gu Yu, have you ever thought about going back to Taozhuang to live for a while?"

Gu Yu shook her head subconsciously, "...Xia Zhi is still young, and parents have to take care of them, and in the shop..."

After all, it is inseparable from the shop, and the words are a bit far-fetched.

Seeing how resolute she said, Jing Zhe didn't say anything else, nothing happened yet, I hope...he was thinking too much.

The worry in my heart didn't dissipate until An Jinxuan came.

"Jinxuan, have you noticed something is wrong?" Jing Zhe didn't make a fuss, didn't he rush back this time just to talk about this matter?
An Jinxuan frowned, "I really think that An Jinhua is not someone who can do anything big. After this time, Gu Yu went to save the Hua family, I am more and more sure of this guess. What to say Back then my parents were killed by him, he didn't have the guts!"

Jing Zhe listened quietly, "What else?"

"Also, I have also thought about whether it was his parents who killed his parents, but it doesn't look like it at this time. It is said that the people of An's family looked similar when they died. They didn't have any wounds on their bodies, and they didn't look like they were poisoned. Death, with a peaceful demeanor, no abnormality..." Having said this, An Jinxuan smiled wryly, "That's why people rumored that there was a bad moon and a bad day in the An family, and the previous generation was cursed... that's why there is such a thing. end."

Jing Zhe raised her eyebrows, "Do you believe it?"

An Jinxuan responded, "What do you think?"

"Of course not!" the two said in unison.

Suddenly he smiled, and the atmosphere became much more relaxed. Jing Zhe wanted to land on the letter from Lu Rui to himself, but it was not easy to tell An Jinxuan directly, so he could only make indirect remarks, "Then you are going out this time, are you?"

An Jinxuan also found that there were many things that he couldn't explain when he went out this time. Jingzhe happened to be there, and he had a difficult heart, so he happened to help him take a look, so he told him from beginning to end, " Since Mr. Lu came here last time, the brocade and Yujinluo began to sell well, which is also a reasonable thing, but one day, a merchant from Dingzhou said that he was willing to cooperate with us, and the price offered was really attractive. At that time...it was really difficult, and I was a little moved at first, but then I found some strange things, especially he made a strange request, that is, to take a look at the secret recipe, you said it is impossible to show it to others, right? He also said, just take a look, or ask us to send a person in charge to dye the cloth at their side, and they will spend all of it, but we will share [-]% of the silver... He also said that Yu Jinluo is Our prescription has already been settled by the Purchasing Department, so it is naturally our name... After inquiring, he lost his position and said that he wanted to thank us. It turned out that he had a rift with An's family, and he was happy to see us. Stealing An's business..."

Jing Zhe frowned, this is a business, definitely not so.A businessman values ​​profits, even if An Jinxuan steals An Jinhua's business, he only needs to have fun, so why is that?This was too much, and it made An Jinxuan suspicious.

"So, when it comes to your prescription, I thought about going to have a look, but what did I find?"

An Jinxuan smiled, as if everything could not be hidden from Jing Zhe, "If he hadn't revealed the truth, I would definitely not have become so suspicious. Fortunately, I have gained nothing. Fortunately, Mr. Lu reminded him that he has a Pingzhou accent at all. Go, as expected, and, when he was in the city, he also had contact with Xie Hong, and he knew it, but he didn't know what kind of medicine he was selling. , he brought up the topic, but the Xie family didn't seem to know anything about it."

An Jinxuan thought about the situation at that time, and recalled: "Unfortunately, I saw An Jinhua later, otherwise I would have believed his words."

Jing Zhe laughed loudly, "The Xie family is an old fox, and it was Mr. Xie Hong who started the house himself. It has been able to reach this point in a short period of time. How can it be that there is no calculation, you are not stupid, his mouth can't pry it Come on, you're going to start with An Jinhua?"

An Jinxuan smiled and patted Jing Zhe's shoulder, "Master Lu didn't come forward, you know, half of the things in Yunzhou City are from the An family, and half from us and the Hua family, so the one who can talk is naturally Master Lu, What's more, he doesn't know how to be defensive or thinks it is unnecessary, so he asks out in three or five times."

It was only at this time that Jing Zhe became interested, "Oh, but what?"

"It's not too detailed, but I can be sure that the person was definitely sent by Xie Hong. He probably acted improperly. He was dismissed when he returned. It happened that An Jinhua was a guest at Xie's house, but how could he tell Xie Hong?" I don't know if the family is together. Mr. Lu also said something strange, An Jinhua's good days are coming to an end."

An Jinxuan felt a kind of joy in stripping cocoons, "An Jinhua and the Xie family are friends... The Xie family sent someone to deal with An Jinhua?"

After Jing Zhe listened to it, she understood everything, thinking about the letter from Lu Rui, she suddenly became enlightened.

"Jinxuan, tell me, what position is the Xie family standing on? Have you found out how he made his fortune that day? Although the Xie family is in Pingzhou, what are the characteristics of his materials? Also, why did An Jinhua Will you get so close to him? Why did he send someone over to provoke you again? Is it to help An Jinhua? Or is there another purpose? Or is it just waiting for you to fight to the point where he can benefit from it."

After a series of questions, An Jinxuan was stunned, and he didn't react for a long time. He had thought about what Jing Zhe said, but he thought that it had nothing to do with him, so he might as well come back and wait, and calm down. , when the time comes, the soldiers will cover the water and cover it with soil.At this moment, it seems that it is not so simple, Jing Zhe never said these things for no reason, so there is only one possibility, Xie Jia, it is not just a simple problem.

The cold sweat was brushed off.An Jinxuan was a little scared, "It's a good thing you're back, otherwise my vision would have been narrowed, and I was only thinking about doing the things in front of me well..."

An Jinxuan is good at this, he can quickly accept good opinions from others.

Jing Zhe thought to himself, if Lu Rui hadn't reminded him, he wouldn't have looked at it more carefully than An Jinxuan, "Why do you need to belittle yourself, if I hadn't heard about something when I was handling the case, wouldn't I still be kept in the dark If there is no matter about uncle and aunt, there is really nothing wrong with the Xie family, but now it seems that there is really a problem with the Xie family, Jinxuan...you have to be careful."

An Jinxuan looked at Jing Zhe with good eyes, a little excited, "Jing Zhe, did you... discover something?"

Jing Zhe didn't deny it, and lowered his voice, "Uncle and aunt, the place where they were killed was between Yunzhou and Pingzhou. It was said that they were visiting relatives and friends at that time. Why did they die for no reason? It has been too long, and many things happened. I don’t know anymore, but in Wuxian County, there are often people who take a shortcut and pass by there. The border between the two places has always been ignored. This is a murder case, and the two sides naturally shirk it, and there is not much evidence. , it became a death case... plus no one at home asked..."

At home, after the death of parents, the family is afraid of themselves, right?They tried their best to whitewash themselves, make themselves disappear, and then propped up An's family out of helplessness. Isn't that how they have come here for so many years?An Jinxuan grabbed the hem of his clothes with his fingers, and the veins on the back of his hands bulged.

Seeing him like this, Jing Zhe pretended to turn a blind eye. Sometimes, words can't comfort people. What he can do to help him is to let him know the truth as much as possible. "Coincidentally, seven or eight years have passed, and another couple died in that place again, without a trace. Later, some people said that they were cursed, silk industry, and hated by the silkworm god. It's up... I was in the government office, and I accidentally got a handbook from my predecessors. These strange things were recorded in it, and I immediately thought of Anjia. I went to look through the files, and there were indeed. But there was only one, so I came back this time. I just ask my father to help, and the day when I know the truth may not be far away."

It took a long time before An Jinxuan calmed down, "So, it's unlikely that it's An Jinhua's side?"

Jing Zhe shook her head, "I don't know, maybe it was suicide, maybe it was the same person who killed me, I will find out, but from now on, you have to be careful, and... take care of Gu Yu and the others."

An Jinxuan was a little puzzled, "The relatives who know the state, they dare?"

Jing Zhe didn't turn her head back, "When one's own interests are harmed, or even one's family is ruined, some people can do anything."

An Jinxuan looked at Jing Zhe's back, terrified.
