MTL - Rumor Has It That I’m Pregnant with His Highness’ Child-Chapter 564 word of mouth
Chapter 564 Keep Your Words
Zhang Lizheng looked at the little official with a helpless look after asking the whole story.
"This is someone's house. They don't want to let it go to waste. Isn't it reasonable and reasonable to prepare to clean it? Do you need the approval of the government to do a big cleaning in your house?"
Little official retorted: "But there was a murder here!"
Zhang Li asked back and forth: "If it was a murder case, what did your government find out?"
Xiaoli's expression became embarrassed.
"not yet."
Zhang Lizheng: "It's been more than three years, and you still haven't checked it out at all. Not only do you not feel ashamed, but you are still here to make trouble for others, do you think it's appropriate?"
The clerk was speechless.
Zhang Lizheng sighed again: "All of Ya's family died in the fire, and now she's the only one left in the Feng family, what a poor girl, your government should raise your hand and let her go, don't disturb other people's lives again. already."
Little official tried to justify himself.
"That's not what we said. Our original intention is to protect the crime scene so that the government can investigate the case. We never wanted to embarrass anyone."
Zhang Lizheng frowned: "It's not an embarrassment, why do you bring so many yamen here? Don't you want to bully a weak female streamer with the help of the crowd?"
The clerk opened his mouth and wanted to continue his defense but could not find a suitable reason.
In the end, he could only rebuke angrily.
"You are deliberately favoring her, you are all in the same group!"
Zhang Lizheng waved his hand: "Let's go, let's go, don't get in the way here. If you think I'm doing a bad job, you can tell the county governor about it, and I'll take care of the consequences."
The little official gritted his teeth: "Okay, since you are determined to protect this little girl, go back and wait for the county governor to be held accountable, and see how you explain it?!"
After he finished speaking, he flicked his sleeves, and turned and left with the yamen.
Yu Weiwei was a little worried: "Grandpa, this won't cause you trouble, right?"
Zhang Lizheng answered without paying much attention.
"It's alright, they won't do anything to me. Anyway, I'm already half-dead, so what else is there to be afraid of?"
Yu hurriedly said: "Don't say that, you want to live a hundred years!"
Zhang Lizheng laughed: "Lend your auspicious words to live a hundred years!"
The crowd continued to work until the sun went down.
The whole house has not been cleaned up, I have searched everywhere I could, and even the soil in the garden was turned over, but still could not find the slightest clue.
Yu Weiwei couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.
But she quickly recovered herself. Three years ago, officers and soldiers searched this place thoroughly, and it is normal to find no clues now.
Since there are no clues to be found here, consider investigating elsewhere.
Zhang Lizheng warmly invited Yu and his party to visit his house.
"It's about this time. You should have missed your meal when you return to the city. Why don't you eat at my house, which is not far from here."
Yu's heart moved, Zhang Lizheng's house is not far from here, maybe he can find some useful clues from his old man's mouth.
So she readily agreed: "That's great! I haven't eaten your family's food for a long time, so I'll have a real treat tonight."
When they arrived at Zhang Lizheng's house, it was already dark.
Zhang Lizheng's two daughters-in-law learned that there were guests visiting, and they quickly set fire to cook.
Yu Weiwei and Xiao Juan, Luo Pingsha, and Ling Hai were sitting in the main room. Zhang Lizheng asked his son to serve them hot tea.
They chatted while drinking tea.
Yu Weiwei told some interesting things he encountered in Yujing, which made Zhang Lizheng smile.
Zhang Lizheng said with emotion: "Yujing is indeed a big place, there are so many interesting things."
Yu Cuiwei asked, "Although Yujing is good, I still like it here. I wonder if anything happened here in the two years I was away? For example, has anyone come to inquire about our family?"
Zhang Lizheng heard the overtones in her words, and knowing that this might be the main reason why she came from home to be a guest, he recalled it carefully.
Yu Weiwei didn't rush and waited quietly.
Xie's and Feng Lianghan's tombs have been opened, and all the funerary objects are there, but only one jade bracelet is missing. The possibility of tomb robbers is very low.
Thinking of the particularity of the jade bracelet, Yu Weiwei suspected that the other party came for the bracelet.
And the other party should be sure that the bracelet is in Xie's tomb.
Relocated, Yu Lingwei assumed that she was the one who wanted to steal the bracelet, and she must have inquired about the location of Xie's mausoleum before she started.
And that might be a useful clue.
Zhang Li was thinking for a long time before speaking.
"A year ago, someone did come to inquire about your family's affairs. At that time, everyone in my family went out to do farm work, and there were only me and a few ignorant little dolls left at home."
Having said this, he waved to the child who was squatting at the door and playing with stones.
"Aniu come here."
The child has a big head, dark skin, and looks very strong.
He stomped on the ground and ran to Zhang Lizheng's side, opened his mouth and called out grandpa.
Zhang Lizheng asked: "Do you still remember a year ago when you said that a grandmother came to our house to ask for water?"
Aniu tilted his head and thought: "Well, remember."
"Then tell this sister about the situation at that time."
Aniu said obediently.
"I took my younger brother to sweep the floor in the yard that day.
Suddenly someone knocked on the door, so I ran to open the door and found an old woman standing outside the courtyard door.
She said that she came from another place and traveled a long way. She was very thirsty and wanted to ask me for a bowl of water.
I went back to the stove, scooped a ladle of water with a gourd and brought it to her.
After drinking the water, she thanked me, and gave me a straw grasshopper as a thank you gift.
That grasshopper was very well made, like the real thing, I liked it so much, but it was broken by the big brother later..."
Zhang Li was interrupting him: "Don't say grasshopper, say that grandma."
Aniu responded angrily, and then returned to the main topic.
"That grandma also asked me about Uncle Feng's house, and she left after asking."
Zhang Lizheng continued his words.
"I didn't even know that there was a guest at the house at the time. I didn't know about that grandma until Anniu quarreled with the other little dolls because of the straw grasshopper."
A Niu defended in a low voice: "That grandma didn't let me tell others. I promised her, so I had to do what I said."
Zhang Lizheng educates his words earnestly.
"Keeping your word is the principle of life, but it also depends on the situation. The other party is a stranger you don't know at all. What if the other party is a bad person? What if she wants to plot against our family? You help her. Conservative whereabouts, tantamount to aiding Zhou, which will lead to very bad consequences."
A Niu was frightened, his face turned white: "I, I didn't think about it so much, Grandpa, I was wrong, I don't dare anymore."
"If you meet a stranger in the future to talk to you, or ask you for something, you must tell your elders immediately, remember?"
Aniu nodded hastily: "I remember!"
