MTL - Our Mommy is the Best Investigator!-Chapter 35 Linglong gossip heart

  Chapter 35 Linglong Bagua Heart

Just like the debate between County Magistrate Hu and Mr. Zhao, whether it is bandits or enemies, Zhao's mansion is fortified, and it is not an easy task to rob a living person in the deep house compound .

  Since neither of them can achieve this goal, Chu Nanzhi can completely rule out these two possibilities at this time, and lead the possibility to another suspicion of hers:

  Murder in the house.

   As soon as he came, Mr. Zhao’s young man had never been out of the mansion before he disappeared. The file records that Mr. Mr. Xiao went to greet his stepmother before going to bed, and the maids personally served him to sleep;

  Furthermore, as I saw, the Zhao Mansion was surrounded by towering courtyard walls like an iron pass, and it was true that outsiders could not come in and out at will, not to mention that there were so many Ding Nuyuans.

   Moreover, what Sibao said just now when he entered the mansion also gave her some inspiration:

  In such a fortified mansion, is there really no family conflicts?

  The richer the family, the deeper the hidden grievances and entanglements.

  In order to cover up the contradictions, it is exaggerated to whitewash the illusion of harmony and peace.

  She quietly cast her eyes on Zhao Taigong, looked at the weather-beaten face, and asked softly:

   "I heard that your son was born to the Taigong's wife?"

  Hey, is it too gossip to ask like this?

  This **** gossip heart.

   "Not born of a wife."

   Zhao Taigong replied frankly.

  But as soon as he said this, everyone was dumbfounded immediately, except for his second wife, Yu Shi, who looked calm.

   Zhao Taigong looked at each other's surprised expressions, hesitated for a long time, and finally said slowly:

   "If we want to talk about this matter, except for the old and the young at home, it is rare to mention it to anyone, so the outside world agrees that the elder sister of the prefect of the county is the old man's wife."

   Then there was a long pause.

  He squinted his eyes slightly, as if he was a little reluctant to mention the past, but he thought that the youngest son had no news so far, so there was nothing to be afraid of, after thinking about it, he slowly said the old things in his heart again:

   "Actually, before marrying the Wu family, the old man had already married two wives."

  Chu Nanzhi was sipping tea slowly, when she heard this, she couldn't hold back her mouthful of tea and sprayed it out, choking her so much that she coughed several times, but couldn't relieve the shock in her heart:

   "It's really disrespectful. I didn't expect the old man to be a person with a long story."

   Then he pretended to calm down again.

  Based on this calculation, the prefect's elder sister is already his third wife.

  Prefect Hu and Xiancheng Sun also seemed to have heard a shocking secret, holding the teacup tightly in their hands, they stood on the spot in a daze, unable to recover for a long time.

   Zhao Taigong glanced at everyone, but quietly showed a wry smile:

"The old man's wife and I are both from Tong County, our hometown. They are childhood sweethearts. In the early years, we took our youngest son to do some business at sea. Later, we encountered pirates at sea. Unfortunately, our wife and youngest son died in the shipwreck. Later, we had to remarry in order to extend our children. I met a girl surnamed Jiang in Tong County, married for five years but had no blood, at that time Wu Enrong, who was still the magistrate of Tong County, wanted to make friends with the old man, so he instigated his deceased mother to abandon the Jiang family and welcome his eldest sister into the family."

"I see."

  Chu Nanzhi nodded in greeting.

   I'm afraid he is also an old scumbag.

   It is also wise for me to be greedy for beauty from the beginning to the end, and to deliberately blame my deceased mother for my sins.

  I want to come to Wu Enrong, the prefect of Pingning County, who married his elder sister to the old man just for the sake of promotion.

   "Wu's marriage with the old man gave birth to a child, Zhao Yan, within a year, but he died of illness in the house within two years. It can be regarded as having a child again when he is old, and he has a role to rely on, so the old man has always loved the child very much."

   After finishing speaking, Zhao Taigong turned his face sideways, glanced at Yu Shi full of doting, and praised with great satisfaction:

   "The current wife was married five years ago. The old man is old now, and the wife is gentle and virtuous. It all depends on her to take care of the family. She also loves the only son very much. The old man is very satisfied."

  Looking at the two people's eyes intertwined, their love blended together, Chu Nanzhi felt a bit of gossip in his heart.

  The Jiang family and this Yu family have not obtained any blood for five years, but why did the Wu family give birth to a fat son after only one year of marriage.

Um?

   It shouldn't be so complicated.

  Chu Nanzhi tried her best to focus on the case.

  But after thinking about it, Yu Shi has been in the family for five years, and he is so affectionate with the old man, why doesn't he have a child of his own?

  It seems that I still have to think about this aspect.

   If there is no secret, it means that the old man may have some problems with his body.

  Looking around at County Magistrate Hu and County Chancellor Sun, they saw that they were just listening attentively, and put on the face of a melon-eating crowd.

   This made Chu Nanzhi feel a little distressed.

   Could it be that such a private and heart-wrenching question should be asked by a woman like me?

  She glanced at Magistrate Hu.

  Hu Maoxi lowered his head, picked up the teacup unhurriedly, and sipped the tea carefully: "Good tea, the tea from Taigong's Mansion is really the top grade among the top grades, even if it is the imperial grade in the palace."

  She had no choice but to look at Sun Xiancheng again.

  But the old man turned his face away and deliberately looked at the scenery outside the hall.

   "Grandpa Zhao and your wife have been married for five years, why didn't you think about having another baby? My father and mother gave birth to me and four older brothers and sisters within one year of their marriage."

  Little Sibao is also very curious.

  In her world, one should have children after becoming a parent.

   "There are no taboos in children's words, there are no taboos in children's words, don't be offended by the grandpa."

  Chu Nanzhi looked extremely embarrassed.

  In case Mr. Zhao is in poor health, Xiao Sibao's words really hurt his heart.

   I don’t know if it’s a good thing or a bad thing to bring this little guy here today.

   But someone raised this question, and she was still happy in her heart.

  It can't be too obvious, so I can only pretend to be serious and say to Sibao: "Children are not allowed to interrupt indiscriminately."

  Little Four Treasures lowered his head aggrieved.

  But what the little guy said really hurt the old couple.

  Yu Shi's whole face immediately sank, but it was not easy to scold a child in front of everyone.

  Old Mr. Zhao held the teacup, and couldn't calm down the pain in his heart for a long time.

  After thinking about it, he could only pretend nothing happened and replied: "It's okay, I'm already satisfied with Yan'er, and I don't dare to have extravagant thoughts."

   So far, Chu Nanzhi has roughly reached some conclusions.

  But if you want to support your inference, you must first find the body of Mr. Zhao's young man.

  Before and after the accident, Mr. Zhao Xiaolang never left the mansion. This is a fact that everyone in the mansion can confirm.

  If it was really murder, then Mr. Zhao Xiaolang's body is most likely still in the mansion.

   It's just that she can't confide her feelings at will before she finds the real evidence, so she can only discuss with Zhao Taigong:

   "I wonder if it is convenient for the grandpa to call some of the servants from the son's courtyard to let the women have a deeper understanding of some of the daily living habits of the young man?"

  After thinking for a while, she simply said bluntly: "The woman wants to check where your son lives."

   "You are a woman."

   Yu felt that it was against the rules, and wanted to stop him, but Zhao Taigong waved his hand quickly and said:

   "Since it is to investigate the case, Mrs. Chu has no problem going, so I ordered my servants to lead the way for the lady."

  He actually resisted this woman with a child who did not investigate the case rigorously, and he had no idea at all.

   Just thinking that there is little news about the youngest son now, and this woman is a strange person who solved the tax and bank case, so I feel somewhat hopeful.

   Immediately, they called two maids from the young children's courtyard to hand over to Chu Nanzhi, planning to let her go to the northwest courtyard to inspect.
