SFS Chapter 220 Investigation 5
Chapter 220 Investigation 5
As time passed by, Chu Yuhua had proposed several times to send someone to look for Ji Zihe, but Rong Ge stopped them.
The longer time passed, the greater the pressure on Rong Ge. Even the servants who came with Ji Zihe began to wonder why Rong Ge stopped him. Rong Ge and the housekeeper finally came late.
Rong Ge heaved a sigh of relief, sorted out the recorded confession, and handed it to Ji Zihe, "My lord, I have interrogated all these people. This is the confession recorded by my subordinates."
Ji Zihe nodded, but didn't take it over, "Thank you for your hard work."
"It's the responsibility of the subordinates to share the worries of the adults." Ji Zihe refused to accept it, but Rong Ge took it by himself, and retreated to stand in the line of yamen servants.
"My lord has been away for so long, but what happened?" Chu Yuhua asked.
"No, it's just that I walked a little slower seeing the exquisite repair of this house."
"Your Excellency has good eyesight. This house was rebuilt by everyone in Suzhou at the request of my uncle."
"Oh, it's a Soviet-style house, no wonder it's so exquisite. Ning'an is far away from Suzhou, why would your uncle think of rebuilding a Soviet-style house?"
"It's a long story. My mother and uncle are actually not locals, but businessmen in Suzhou. My grandfather's family is small, with only one son and one daughter. He was reluctant to marry his daughter, so he bought a good man for my mother on the way to the business. The door-to-door son-in-law. Later, my grandfather encountered bandits on the way to run a business, and all the goods were robbed. A native of Ning’an County, he gave my mother a token, saying that if necessary, Ning’an County can ask his clansmen to make a living.” Chu Yuhua lowered his eyes, and touched a small pocket around his waist with his fingers.
"After the fall of the Chu family, the clansmen took away the last property of my family. I really couldn't survive, so my mother and uncle took me to Ning'an County. Unfortunately, every time I found my father's clansman, my mother died of illness. Thanks My aunt was kind and willing to help us, otherwise I would have reunited with my mother long ago. Later, when my uncle moved into my aunt’s house, my aunt didn’t dislike me and even let me study. I’m very grateful to her.”
Ji Zihe's eyelids twitched, "Then where is your aunt now? Why haven't you seen her?"
"She..." Chu Yuhua raised her head sadly, "She passed away a few years ago, and died of dystocia, one dead body and two lives."
Ji Zihe pursed his lips and said softly, "It's a pity, and I'm sorry for you too."
"Thank you for your compassion."
"By the way, you have been in Ning'an County for so many years, but have you ever found your father's clan?" Ji Zihe asked again.
Chu Yuhua shook his head, "I haven't found it yet."
"How come? Ning'an County is such a big place, can you still fly into the sky?"
"Maybe, it's because fate hasn't arrived yet."
"How about this, if Mr. Chu believes in this official, you can hand over the token to this official, and I can ask the Sixth House of the county government to look for it for you."
"This is too much trouble, sir. After all, it has been a long time, and the grass people have no hope."
"Don't bother, don't bother. As a local parent official, I naturally have to worry about the people's worries. No matter how big or small, the most important thing is to relieve the people's worries."
Chu Yuhua thought for a while, then untied the kit bag at his waist and handed it to Ji Zihe, "Then I will trouble my lord."
"Don't worry, the matter is on me. As soon as there is news, I will send someone to inform you."
"Thank you sir."
"Ah, it's getting late, I can go back to the county government."
"Does your lord stop looking elsewhere?"
"I still have things to do today, let's see next time."
"Since this is the case, my lord's business is important, and Xiaosheng dare not keep you longer, so I will send you out."
"Well, there is one more thing. I need to take your housekeeper away."
"Why did your lord take Steward Zhang away, but what did he do wrong?" Chu Yuhua asked.
Season child
He looked at Butler Zhang with some embarrassment. It turned out that the butler's surname was Zhang. After talking to him for so long, he forgot to ask his name.
"That's not true. I took him away because I saw that he was very familiar with this house, and I wanted to ask him more about the situation. Maybe it would be of some help to the case."
"So that's how it is." Chu Yuhua said to Steward Zhang, "Since your lord asks, then you can go with your lord. Remember, you have to answer whatever your lord asks. You must know everything and say everything."
Butler Zhang was a little embarrassed, "My lord, it doesn't matter if the villain is gone, but the business in the store..."
"It's okay, I will explain this to my uncle. Anyway, it won't be long, and I believe that my lord will not return safely." Chu Yuhua said.
Ji Zihe raised his eyebrows, this young man dared to threaten others.If Ji Zihe was really violent, then both master and servant would be beaten.
"Don't worry, my lord doesn't like to do anything. Most of the time, I like to convince people with reasoning. Butler Zhang is not a criminal. As long as he cooperates with me in investigating the case, he will definitely not lose a hair."
"Don't be surprised, my lord. Steward Zhang is my father's right-hand man. Without his uncle, he will definitely encounter some difficulties. I also hope that my lord will let Steward Zhang come back as soon as possible, and don't make things difficult for my uncle."
"That's natural. As long as the case is solved, I will naturally not keep him in the county government. It's getting late, and I will leave after that. Mr. Chu is just patiently preparing for the government examination, so there is no need to send me off." Ji Zi He got a big piece of evidence, felt very relieved, and said very generously.
After sending Ji Zihe away, Chu Yuhua dismissed the servants and locked herself in the study.He took out a jade bead given by Mrs. Hong from the bottom of the table, and shouted towards the bead, "Mrs. Hong, Mrs. Hong..."
After calling several times and still getting no response at all, Chu Yuhua clenched the beads tightly in disappointment.
What to do with this, the last time Mrs. Hong came to the Yang family was a few days ago.Having not seen her for so many days, Chu Yuhua actually felt a little uneasy, as if something was about to happen.
Suddenly, Chu Yuhua slapped Yuzhu on the table, covered his stomach, frowned, and shouted, "Quick, bring the wine."
Next to the small road in the suburbs, there are tall weeds.From time to time, rustling sounds could be heard in the wild grass, mixed with the murmurs of men and women, I don't know which pair of wild mandarin ducks it was.
Madam Hong got up satisfied, put on her clothes lazily, and looked back at the man lying on the ground, with a smile on the corner of her mouth, full of charm.
On the contrary, the man lying on the ground has a pale complexion, swollen eye bags, thick black eye circles, weak breath, and his originally strong body has become very thin.Having lost part of his yang energy and the essence of flesh and blood, this man may take a long time to recover to his former self.
It's a pity that Mrs. Hong secretly said, if she didn't want to get into trouble, she would definitely kill him directly.That way, her injury will heal faster.
A man without any use value is like an ant in the eyes of Mrs. Hong, not worthy of her too much attention.Madam Hong withdrew her gaze, brushed aside the bushes, and left without a trace of nostalgia.
After so many days, she finally found the residence of the lotus essence.It's just that the lotus essence is staying with Xin Shishiniang's master and servant, so she has to make a better plan.
