Chapter 140 The Trip to Dong's House
Mr. Shen ordered: "Yang Qing, order some yamen servants to go with us immediately."

After Shen Xi brought Yao Heng down from the carriage, Yao Heng finally saw where they came from.

He looked up at the plaque of the mansion, it was impressively written Dong Zhai.

Yao Heng glanced sideways at Shen Xi and asked: "Master Shen, did the plague appear in this family's house? Why didn't someone send someone to seal it off?"

Shen Xi smiled and said: "I thought the case was closed before, but yesterday I suddenly found something suspicious, so I came back to check it again today, and I will trouble Dr. Yao later to help see if there are any hidden dangers in this Dong residence. "

Yao Heng immediately put on a serious face, and said seriously: "Don't worry, Mr. Shen, I will definitely do my best!"

Shen Xi gave Yang Qing a wink, and Yang Qing stepped forward to call for the door.

After a while, the door was opened, and a young servant came out from inside. Seeing the yamen servant standing outside and Shen Xi standing in the center in official uniform, he almost broke his leg in fright.

But after all, it was a servant from a rich family, although he was afraid in his heart, he could still hold his head. He quickly stepped over the threshold, stepped forward, and saluted Shen Xi respectfully.

"My lord, I don't know if my lord came to the humble house, what's the matter?"

Shen Xi glanced at him lightly and said, "Where's your master? Is Mr. Dong out there? I'm here to look for him today."

The servant's voice was a little trembling, but he still said seriously: "Returning to my lord, the master is not in the mansion now, and now the housekeeper is in charge. Liu Da, please come inside, and the villain will report to Butler Liu immediately."

Shen Xi hadn't spoken yet, suddenly, another person came out from the gate, walking hurriedly, looking at his clothes, he was a housekeeper, and he should be the Liu Da that this young man was talking about.

"My lord! The villain has lost his way, and I hope that my lord will forgive me!"

As soon as Liu Da came out, he first apologized to Shen Xi, and then asked with some doubts: "I don't know what business Mr. Shen came to the mansion today?"

Shen Xi just glanced at him and said directly: "It's not convenient to talk outside, let's go in."

Liu Da also seemed to have just realized it, with a face full of self-blame: "The adults are welcome, but the villain's hospitality is not good."

As he said that, he patted the young man next to him and said, "Hurry up and get someone to prepare tea for you adults!"

The boy didn't dare to disobey the order, and ran in quickly.

Under Liu Da's guidance, Shen Xi arrived at the main hall of Dong's residence, just as she sat down, a maid served tea, and then quietly retreated.

Liu Da was entertaining at the side: "My lord came here today unfortunately, my master is not at the house, and my wife also went to the temple to burn incense together, saying that I want to pray for the three young masters, and hope that they will reincarnate as soon as possible."

Shen Xi didn't touch the cup of tea, after listening to Liu Da's words, she just exchanged glances with Yao Heng who was next to her, and then her eyes fell on Liu Da.

Shen Xi looked at the bloodshot eyes in Liu Da's eyes, and couldn't help asking: "I know about the tragedy that happened in your house. It seems that it's not easy for you to be a housekeeper, and you look haggard. Could it be that the whole Dong's house is full of trouble now?" Is it up to you to make the decision? Is Dong Yuanwai okay?"

Liu Da looked terrified, but he said respectfully: "Thank you for your concern, sir. There are indeed villains taking care of the house now. The master and wife lost three sons at once, which is a big blow to them. Now they burn incense and worship Buddha all day long." , just hoping to make the three young masters feel better in the ground, and it doesn’t matter if the villain works harder.”

Shen Xi nodded, the greetings are over, now it's time to ask the real question.

He cleared his throat and said, "Okay, I know this. Since you are in charge now, let me ask you, the plague in your family came from the cook who came back to visit relatives. Where is the cook now? Where do you live? Also, are you sure to burn everything in the house that may have been touched by the three young masters?"

It was not the first time for Liu Da to respond to these questions. Hearing Shen Xi's question, he said calmly.

"Returning to my lord, the plague is not a trivial matter. Since the three young masters fell ill, we have cleaned up the house. As for the cook... Although she survived, she brought the plague back after all. Three young masters died."

"Although the master didn't beat her to death in a fit of anger, he still didn't want to see her, so the villain decided to give her some money and let her go back to her hometown."

Liu Da answered Shen Xi's questions one by one, which can be said to be perfect, because he could have the right answer for every question without any loopholes.

But it was precisely because it was too perfect that Shen Xi became a little suspicious. It seemed that the girl was right in reminding her that this Dong Zhai was really tricky!
Yao Heng next to him couldn't hold back for a long time. He knew what he was here for today, just to check if there were any hidden dangers in Dong's house.

Yao Heng is a good doctor, and he really doesn't want the plague to spread. At that time, the people in Qinghe County will suffer. He hopes that his arrival today can nip this risk in its infancy.

Shen Xi also noticed Yao Heng's uneasy gaze, so she cleared her throat, stood up and said.

"Okay, I see, Liu Da, this is Dr. Yao from Ji's Medical Center. I brought him here today, just to check your Dong residence and see if there are any hidden dangers."

"After all, this plague is not a trivial matter. If it spreads from your mansion, the people in the entire Qinghe County will suffer. Therefore, I brought Dr. Yao here today to eliminate the last trace of risk."

"If you don't mind, let your people take Dr. Yao and my yamen servants to search around. If there are any things left by the dead, they will be packed together."

Liu Da was taken aback when he heard this, and then saluted respectfully: "What your lord said is that it's rare for your lord to be so considerate of the common people. This villain admires him very much. I've also heard of Dr. Yao's reputation, and now he is the most powerful in our Qinghe County." Doctor, my villain will send someone to take Doctor Yao and the officials to check."

"However... since the three young masters had accidents, everyone in Dong's house is in danger. Anyone who finds anything suspicious will be thrown out and set on fire. I don't think there will be anything left in the house, but what your lord said is right, check it out more. Check it out, it’s definitely true.”

Liu Da was very cooperative, and after he finished speaking, without any delay, he immediately called a servant to take Yao Heng and a few yamen servants out.

Seeing his cooperation, Shen Xi not only didn't feel happy, but felt more uneasy.

The smoother it is, the more problems there are. Either the other party really has a clear conscience, or the other party has already made arrangements. Now it seems that the other party is probably in the latter case.

In this way, this so-called plague is really suspicious.
