Keyboard Immortal Chapter 1019: One hundred secrets one sparse
Zuan glanced at the child and hesitated.
The woman understood and patted her son: "Huzi, go to the backyard to play by yourself."
"Good!" The kid had wanted to test his new weapon for a long time, and ran back happily after hearing this.
"Be careful not to get hurt by the sword," Zaan reminded. After all, the other party was still young, so it would be bad if he accidentally got hurt by the sword.
"It's okay, he used to play his father's sword secretly and was beaten several times." Hearing that he was really worried about her son, the woman's face suddenly softened a bit, "Why have I never listened to my child before? Did his father say there are friends like you?"
"Hello, my name is Amman. Brother Shen saved me once during a mission in the early years. Later, we went our separate ways because of errands. When I came back to Yunzhong County this time, I wanted to catch up with him. By the way, I would like to thank him for his life-saving grace in the past. , who knew but heard the bad news from him." Zaun sighed, with a little more sadness in his tone.
Pei Mianman gave him a surprised look. This guy's acting skills are too good. This emotion is like entering.
I used to worry that he was being deceived by women, but now I am thankful that women are not deceived by him.
But thinking of the other party calling himself Amman, isn't that a combination of their names?
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel a sweetness in her heart.
At this time, the woman's eyes turned red all of a sudden, and she was obviously reminded of the pain of bereavement: "It's all to blame for the **** smuggler..."
"Sister-in-law's condolences." Zaan took out a hundred taels of silver from the glazed orb and put it in a wooden box and handed it over. "This is a little thought of mine, and I hope that my sister-in-law will accept it."
"I can't help it, it's too much..." The woman looked embarrassed, and hurriedly stood up to refuse, rubbing her hands on the apron, not knowing where to put it.
One hundred taels of silver is nothing to the wealthy and nobles, but it is indeed a huge sum of money for ordinary people.
"How can the life-saving grace be measured by money," Zaan said sternly, "I just hate that I came a step late and couldn't save Big Brother Shen. The only thing I can do now is to help him take care of his family."
Seeing that the other party still refused to accept it, Pei Mianman on the side also said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, if you don't think about yourself, you should also think about your child. Wouldn't it be better for your child to grow up in a more relaxed environment?"
Hearing her mentioning her son, the woman accepted it. While thanking the two of them, she looked at Pei Mianman and said, "This girl is so handsome, is she your daughter-in-law?"
Zuan nodded and held Pei Mianman's hand: "Yes, she is my daughter-in-law."
Hearing him introduce herself like this, Pei Mianman's eyes were slightly red. Because of her friendship with Chu Chuyan, she had always avoided the relationship between the two, but her mother was unnamed and depressed. In the end, would she not care about this in her heart?
Now that she heard the other party say this, she suddenly felt that all the efforts in the past were worth it.
"It's so lucky, you two are on the right track." The woman sighed, "Shen Zhou is not so lucky..."
Here she silently wipes away her tears.
Pei Mianman handed over a handkerchief, but the woman didn't take it, worried that her snow-white handkerchief would be soiled, so she picked up the apron and wiped it at the corner of her eyes.
"Does my sister-in-law know where the smuggler Shen is investigating? I see if there is a chance to avenge him." Zaan took the opportunity to ask.
The woman shook her head: "He never told me about his work, and the investigation was very secret this time, so he won't tell me. The government and yamen will know exactly what to investigate... An Brother, don't get involved in this matter, your eldest brother Shen has already sacrificed his life, if you are implicated, we will never feel at ease for the rest of our lives."
"Don't worry, sister-in-law, I have my own discretion and won't act recklessly." Zuan then asked, "By the way, after Brother Shen's accident, has the government's pension money been implemented for you? If not, I will help you. You urge you, you can't chill the hearts of the brothers."
"It has already been implemented. A few days after the child's father's accident, someone from the government came to the door, and the leader was the former commander. It seems that the surname is Gong or something..." The woman thought for a while. not get up.
"Miyagi?"
"Yes, yes, it's him," the woman continued, "Lord Gong is a good official. After the accident of the child's father, I just felt that the sky was falling. Fortunately, Mrs. Gong brought his men to help after the operation. It's the saddest day for our mothers."
"The Fuzhong pension was also given to us by Lord Gong. Later, I also inquired about it. It was a little more than the normal pension money. I think it was personally paid by Lord Gong."
"I've been thinking about finding a chance to pay him back, but now I'm taking care of Huzi and I can't walk away, and Lord Gong has a lot of time to do. I'm also worried about disturbing him. Brother An, why don't you help me bring the money to Lord Gong? Well."
Zuan hurriedly declined: "Sister-in-law, you are too outspoken, and I think it is also Lord Gong's heart for his comrade. If you go back and let him deal with it? You can take it with peace of mind."
The woman's face was moved: "You are all good people. Although the child's father is not lucky, but with your group of comrades, this life is worth it."
Zuan chatted with her for a while, and suddenly mentioned it inadvertently: "By the way, I heard Brother Shen mention that he broke his leg once in his early years. Later, although the wound healed, it would be a pain in the wind and rain. This time, I specially found Duanyu paste, originally thinking that it would relieve his pain, but I didn't expect it to be used, so I'll leave it to my sister-in-law."
As he spoke, he took out a bottle of ointment.
The woman looked astonished: "Did Shen Zhou break his leg? Why don't I remember it?"
"Perhaps he didn't tell the family because he was afraid of your worries." Zu An thought that was the case.
The woman looked puzzled, obviously thinking back to her past with her husband.
Zuan wanted to ask if Shen Zhou had left any last words or things, but he felt that it was too abrupt to ask, so he changed his words: "That's right, sister-in-law, because the case of Brother Shen has never been solved, I think Let's see if there are any new clues to bring the murderer to justice, or take revenge for Big Brother Shen."
"I wonder if the sister-in-law had any unusual behavior on the day she saw Big Brother Shen for the last time?"
The two of them had a chat just now, and the other party was giving money and gifts. The doubts in the woman's heart had already been dispelled, and she heard the words and replied, "It doesn't seem to be abnormal."
When Zaan was disappointed, he suddenly heard the woman say, "I don't know if it counts."
"Any small matter may have hidden clues." Zaan was overjoyed and hurriedly asked.
The woman fell into memory: "The child's father didn't say anything to me that day, but he seemed to be very preoccupied, and he played with the tiger for a long time. You must know that he never brings children on weekdays. Yes, it must have been a foreboding before death."
Speaking of the latter, she couldn't help but wipe away her tears.
The two comforted him for a while, just as Hu Zi waved his dagger in his mouth and "charged" plausibly, Zaan took advantage of the situation and pulled him to ask what his father said to him that day.
"I don't remember very well..." Hu Zi scratched his head and thought for a long time before he said, "It seems that he didn't say anything, he just played the game of war with me."
Zuan asked for some more details, but unfortunately it was just the most common kind of play game, and there was no code word or anything.
At this time, Pei Mianman also said: "Sister-in-law, can we take a look at Brother Shen's room, there may be clues left by him."
She is extremely beautiful, and her peach blossom eyes bring a smile, giving people an inexplicable affinity. I chatted with that woman for a while, one elder sister-in-law is long and the other is short, and she has long shouted. The other party's heart has spoken.
"Of course." The woman couldn't help but hold her hand in admiration, "The big girl is really handsome!"
Pei Mianman was a little embarrassed, and hurriedly went to Shenzhou's room with Zaan to investigate.
Unfortunately, the two of them searched the room for half a day, but they didn't find anything of value. They were all very common daily necessities.
"By the way, the official came once before and took away many of his work-related items, saying it was a routine and needed to be taken back for investigation." The woman said aside.
Zu Anxin thought it was no wonder that there were so few things in the house, and he asked, "Does my sister-in-law know the official's name?"
"It's that Lord Gong." The woman replied.
"Oh?" Zaun raised his eyebrows thoughtfully.
The two chatted with the mother and son for a while, and then got up to say goodbye. On the way back, Pei Mianman finally couldn't help but wonder: "Why don't you check the other two's families? Why did you come directly to this sinking boat? home?"
"There's no need to go to the other two," Zaan explained. "I've already analyzed that Cheng Ba before, and the probability of it being as seamless as a fake is too small. The other Yu Li, too, was slapped with thick eyebrows. The Taoist has drained his skills, so I can prove it myself, and although the face of the mummy has changed drastically, as a family member, it is impossible not to recognize it, so the identities of the two are no problem."
"Instead, this sinking boat, although it was indeed burned to death by fire, but because his face was destroyed, he could not prove that he was the one who died. I noticed that there was something abnormal in the leg bone of the charred body, and the wound had already healed. , apparently an old injury suffered during his lifetime. So I came here to ask her wife, but she told me that Shen Zhou had never broken a leg before."
"Obviously the charred corpse was not Shen Zhou himself, but was forged by someone with a similar body type. The result was a hundred secrets. I never thought that the person they chose had a broken leg before, and this was revealed. Weakness."
"So Shen Zhou is the person you were looking for to report the news to the capital?" Pei Mianman was a little puzzled, "But why does he have to travel all the way to the capital to report the news? Not to inform his superior Gong Pan or Madam Yu?"
"There are two possibilities. First, he couldn't get in touch with these two people under the circumstances at the time. Second..." Zuan paused, looking rather complicated, "He can't trust these two people."
