Situ Wen has already described the situation in this yard in great detail. Like everything she said, there are many places in this yard that are weird.Especially the flowers and plants in the courtyard are the weirdest places, the messy layout really doesn't make any sense.

When he asked, Mrs. Hou said indifferently: "I don't bother to take care of the affairs of this yard. As for why the flowers and plants look like this, you can find someone to ask."

Mrs. Hou didn't know about the flowers and plants, so she asked him to ask those servants.

"Is there a butler in the house?" Song Wuya continued to ask.

Since you're going to ask a servant, it's better to ask someone who knows a lot.This butler is obviously the most suitable candidate, not to mention that before that, they said that they must meet this butler when they come again.

Madam Hou still had a calm expression: "I don't know."

"This..." This made Song Wuya at a loss as to how to respond. Madam Hou is in a very bad mood right now, and she is already sullen in her stomach. According to Song Wuya's guess, it must be Bai Zhuo's. The question made her very upset.

After being dumb for a while, Song Wuya was also puzzled. When Bai Zhuo asked a question just now, Madam Hou's mood changed obviously.After thinking about it, he felt that it was time for Bai Zhuo to ask Xiao Wan.

Xiao Wan had already left the Hou's mansion, so naturally she couldn't ask her about her relationship with the Hou.

"Go get your housekeeper." At this moment, Situ Wen coldly ordered the servants of the Hou's mansion beside him.

When the servant heard this, he turned his head and left without looking at Mrs. Hou's face.

The first thousand and 110th chapter nine eluting the suspicion

?The first thousand and 110th chapter nine eluting suspicion

This is good, Situ Wen's rebellion made Mrs. Hou, who was already a little unhappy, look even uglier.

As the master of the Hou Mansion, but listening to others giving orders here, one can imagine what it feels like.

The servants went to find the butler, but Mrs. Hou snorted angrily and said nothing.

Regarding the location of the housekeeper, Mrs. Hou didn't know whether she was angry because of the previous question, or because she resisted this question.

In any case, they came to the Hou Mansion twice successively. Apart from the master Mrs. Hou, the housekeeper must be the most important person, but this person did not appear.

In the entire Hou Mansion, Song Wuya always felt that there was a weird atmosphere here. He couldn't explain what was going on, but he always felt very strange in his heart.

Mrs. Hou's behavior is not like an ordinary woman who has lost her husband, and it is not known whether Master Hou's death is because two months have passed, or because the relationship between them is not good. Madam Hou looks at this matter The relative seemed very indifferent.

From the beginning to the end, Song Wuya didn't feel the urgency to catch the murderer from her. Instead, he ignored these things, as if it didn't matter whether he caught the murderer or not.

"Madam Hou, how long has this housekeeper been in the Hou's residence?" Song Wuya paused for a while, and then began to ask Madam Hou questions again.

Madam Hou took a deep breath, and faced Song Wuya's question, she said coldly, "I'm not sure about this, he's been here much longer than me."

The housekeeper of the Hou Mansion was already here before Mrs. Hou married into the Hou Mansion. I heard people say that he is not too old, only around 40 years old.Sitting in the position of housekeeper of the Hou Mansion at such an age can be said to have outstanding ability.

Her indifference made it difficult for Song Wuya to proceed with the questioning, but it was still necessary to ask the question.

The request for payment in front of him was very embarrassing, Song Wuya looked around, they were staying in this courtyard, and in front of them was the room at the scene of the crime, everything was still the same as yesterday, after they left, the government officials sealed the place again It's sealed.In the courtyard, several flowers and plants looked very abrupt.

Regarding the issue of flowers and plants, Song Wuya had already asked Mrs. Hou just now, but Mrs. Hou said that she didn't know the situation here.

This made Song Wuya not sure who to ask. He came to the nearest flower and plant, looked at the wet soil on the ground, and immediately frowned and asked, "Ma'am, who has been watering this flower and plant?"

Judging from the humidity of the soil under the flowers and plants, it was obvious that someone had watered this place not long ago, and it should have been just after noon, after avoiding the hottest sun, and watered here.

The hottest weather in summer is almost over, but in this southern land, it still looks very hot.

Madam Hou raised her eyebrows and looked at the bushes of flowers and plants that had not been carefully cared for. She raised her head and told the maid beside her, "Go and ask who is watering here."

This time she is cooperative, after all, with the scene just now, I'm afraid she also knows that even if she doesn't find someone to come, this Situ Wen will order the servants of the Hou Mansion to find this person, so she should just be happy .

After greeting the servants, Madam Hou looked away as if nothing happened, and turned her eyes aside, ignoring other things.

Song Wuya had already asked a lot of questions about the investigation. This courtyard was very strange, as if it had been arranged according to some kind of feng shui.When he thought of this, Dang even asked again: "Ma'am, is this courtyard originally like this? Or when did it rest for a while?"

This courtyard is very weird. According to common sense, such a courtyard should not appear in this wealthy Hou's mansion.

The layout of the courtyard is very monotonous. In the empty courtyard, except for this room, there are those seemingly random flowers and plants.Other than that, there is no other eye-catching place, not even the moon gate that should always be there.

Ordinary wealthy families will have a uniform design style when building courtyards.Not to mention that this is the Hou's Mansion, the building must have been carefully designed, and there are certain requirements everywhere, and it will never be fooled around.

But in the entire Hou's Mansion, this place is so out of place, and the style is completely different from other places, so that it doesn't feel like a part of the Hou's Mansion.It was precisely because of this reason that Song Wuya thought that perhaps for some reason, this courtyard was closed at a certain time after the construction of the entire Hou Mansion.

Modifications were made.

Comparing the styles of other courtyards, Song Wuya felt that this courtyard was originally two courtyards, but they were merged together later.It is not known exactly what the courtyard was used for.

Hearing Song Wuya's inquiry, Madam Hou's expression froze, but she quickly returned to normal, and said with a completely unclear look: "Your Excellency must also be clear, for Madam Hou like me, that always They are all pampered. Naturally, someone will take care of the ups and downs of the Hou's mansion, and I don't need to take care of them. I don't know what the courtyard looked like before."

Another one who doesn't know, Mrs. Hou really doesn't seem to know about the affairs in the Hou Mansion.

But Song Wuya didn't believe what she said now.Because before this, her father-in-law, the old marquis, used to live here. As a daughter-in-law, it is absolutely impossible for her not to come here, so she should know more or less about everything here.Even if you don't know, that's what you care about.

So, there are a lot of strange places here, isn't she curious?

Although he had doubts in his heart, Song Wuya didn't say it out loud. After all, the case was still under investigation, and there were still many things worthy of his consideration.And now he is not sure what kind of mentality this Madam Hou is in. If she just caused a little woman's emotions because of the reason just now, then it is understandable. There is no need to haggle with her because of this, and wait for her After the anger subsides, it will be fine.

Just as he had such a thought in his mind and was unwilling to pursue it further, Situ Wen glared at Song Wuya from the side.

This look made Song Wuya feel a little baffled, he didn't know what Situ Wen meant by looking at him like this.

She obviously noticed that Mrs. Hou was very dissatisfied with what happened just now. Situ Wen didn't want to say anything more, so she didn't speak, but gave Song Wuya such a look.

I don't know if it's because Song Wuya didn't chase after him or because of other reasons.

Song Wuya coughed dryly, while covering up his embarrassment, it could be considered as a message to Situ Wen, and at the same time he ignored it.

After waiting for a while and seeing that Song Wuya didn't ask any further questions, Bai Zhuo took over the conversation: "Mrs. Hou, the housekeeper is taking care of everything in the Hou mansion? Normally, you and Master Hou Are you going to ask about these things?"

"Huh!" Madam Hou exhaled slightly, as if she was a little impatient when they asked her. "If we take care of it ourselves, what do we want them to do? Naturally, the housekeeper will take care of it. We only talk about it ourselves when we see something that we are not satisfied with."

Bai Zhuo had hit a snag, but fortunately Madam Hou only showed this little bit, and didn't show too much impatience.

There is no difference between asking this question and not asking it. This point is obvious, so there is no need to ask any more questions.

Bai Zhuo frowned slightly, but he was not discouraged, and continued to ask: "Then about the matter of haunting, did you and Master Hou handle it, or did the housekeeper handle it?"

In the final analysis, the main cause of this case seemed to be the haunting incident, and Bai Zhuo directly asked about it.

"Haunted?"

Originally, Bai Zhuo thought that Mrs. Hou would talk about this matter.Unexpectedly, Madam Hou frowned and let out an exclamation.

"My lord, don't listen to those servants gossiping, our Hou's mansion is very clean! This house is just a peaceful place after my father-in-law's death. How could it be haunted?"

It's really strange that Mrs. Hou actually denied this matter.
