One touch and one silence

Nanzhi got the answer she wanted, so she didn't waste any more time and stood up to leave.

Old Man Niu wiped his tears and stood up to see him off.

"I'm so sorry for making a fool of myself, young master!"

Nanzhi waved her hand and reached out to stop a few people.

"I am sorry for disturbing you. Now that I have drunk the water, I will leave. Thank you very much!"

After Nanzhi finished speaking, he gave Liuyue a look, and Liuyue took out a silver ingot and stuffed it into the old man Niu's pocket.

Old Man Niu was stunned for a moment, then immediately returned the money to Nanzhi.

"No! No! It's just a bowl of ordinary hot water. It's really not possible!"

Nanzhi stretched out his hand to stop the old man Niu.

When touching the man's thin skin, Nanzhi saw the scene of Yang Xiaocui's life here when she was a child.

Then I also understood this family's feelings towards Yang Xiaocui.

"Uncle, take it. Thank you!" After saying that, he bowed, turned around and left. His movements were so agile.

Seeing that the two men were refusing, Old Man Niu had no choice but to accept it.

They also know that these wealthy young masters are not short of money.

I could only watch Nanzhi and the others go away with great gratitude.

It was not until Nanzhi disappeared that his son beside him asked in confusion.

"Dad! Why did you tell this young master so much? The head of the village doesn't allow us to tell anyone about our affairs."

Old Man Niu ignored his son's question and kept looking at the two people walking away.

After a long while, he murmured, "You don't understand!" and then walked towards the house.

At this time, Nanzhi was recalling the story of Old Man Niu. It must be said that Old Man Niu was a smart man.

Nanzhi couldn't help but smile when he thought of this, while Liuyue smiled for no apparent reason.

"Master, what are you laughing at?"

She really couldn't tell.

"Me! Laughing at that old man just now!"

Liu Yue was a little confused as she listened to her master's words.

Old man? What happened to the old man?

Nanzhi looked back at Liuyue's puzzled eyes and chuckled.

"Didn't you see? This old man took the initiative to tell your master two things!"

"One is that her daughter has worked in Zhuo's house, and the other is that he wants to see if I can help his granddaughter."

"I just asked casually, and the old man told me everything about his family. Don't you say that family disgrace should not be made public?"

"Do you think they look alike? Instead, they are spread directly in front of you and me!" Nanzhi said, pointing at himself.

"And a peasant like him saw ten taels of silver but didn't even look at it. Why do you think that was?"

Liu Yue nodded vaguely, recalling what had just happened.

"It seems that there is indeed some suspicion."

Nanzhi walked in front and said helplessly, "It's more than just a little bit!"

This also shows that this family is smart.

That's right. No matter how smart you are, you can't beat a scoundrel and someone's nominal father.

Although she didn't clearly see that the child was not the current father's, it was most likely not the case, as there was not the slightest resemblance.

Nanzhi had been raising Yang Xiaocui since they were young, and it was obvious that they also doubted their granddaughter's background.

It’s just that my daughter died so suddenly and didn’t leave any message.

The old man also sent his son to inquire, but found nothing.

However, this old man's daughter, Yang Xiaocui's biological mother, is a woman worthy of respect.

Yang Xiaocui!

It seems his background is still a mystery!

Forget it, let’s deal with her murder case first!

"Let's go quickly to Yang Xiaocui's husband's house. Yuan Wuqing is still waiting for us."

As Nanzhi spoke, his steps became much faster.

When passing by Yangjia Village, Nanzhi took a casual look and saw that the people inside were happily eating lunch.

What a warm and happy family!

Nanzhi showed a mocking look on his face.

When they arrived at the town, Nanzhi walked into a house according to Yang Xiaocui's memory.

Nanzhi looked around casually and it seemed that there were quite a lot of rich people in Jiangnan.

Just look at the two words "Liu Mansion" above and you will know.

When Nanzhi went in, Yuan Wuqing was questioning the people inside.

At this time, Nanzhi had changed back into Xiaosi's clothes. Nanzhi walked to Yuan Wuqing's ear and whispered a few words about Yang Xiaocui's mother.

"Xiao Qi, you've come at the right time. This is Yang Xiaocui's husband, and that is Yang Xiaocui's mother-in-law. Please help me ask about how Yang Xiaocui killed Mr. Liu."

Nanzhi understood Yuan Wuqing's intention.

"Don't worry, sir. I understand. I wonder which maids and servants witnessed the murder that day. Please, Madam, bring the person up!"

"this!"

Nanzhi looked at Mrs. Liu who looked a little embarrassed and couldn't help feeling confused.

"What? Is there any difficulty?"

"To be honest, sir, those people have been fired. Otherwise, these things in the mansion will spread all over the city. How can my Liu family still survive in this area?"

Ha ha!

What a coincidence!

However, there was still no expression on Nanzhi's face, she was smiling.

"It's alright, old lady, just tell us where those people's homes are, and we will send the bailiffs there. Madam, don't worry, we will make them keep their mouths shut at this time."

When Nanzhi said this, his eyes were always fixed on the old woman.

This woman accounted for 50% of Yang Xiaocui's tragedy.

Seeing that Mrs. Liu didn't say anything, Nanzhi took out paper and pen from somewhere and put the brush directly into Mrs. Liu's hand.

"It's okay if you don't want to say it, it's the same if you write it down!"

"Or is there something hidden?"

Nanzhi's words successfully made the woman's face freeze.

However, Nanzhi also got the information she wanted.

Sure enough.

Nanzhi looked at the weak and helpless man kneeling on the ground.

Yang Xiaocui was proposed to by this man himself, and he gave Yang Xiaocui's stepmother a lot of benefits.

Yang Xiaocui's stepmother also knew about his hidden illness, but still married Yang Xiaocui to him.

As for the man's mother, she knew that it was her son's fault, but she still beat and scolded Yang Xiaocui all day long.

Either they scolded her for seducing people like a vixen, or they scolded her for being a hen that didn't lay eggs.

In fact, she knew better than anyone what kind of person her son was. He was kicked in the vitals by a horse when he was a child. It was a blessing for him to be able to survive.

However, this woman still vented all her anger on Yang Xiaocui.

Yang Xiaocui was beautiful, and was often called to the presence of Mrs. Liu to be scolded and punished, so she had more and more opportunities to see Mr. Liu.

Which man can stand seeing a beautiful woman being bullied so pitifully?

After a while, the old man became lustful and started to set his sights on his daughter-in-law.

From time to time, he watched his daughter-in-law being punished in secret, but was discovered by this woman a year ago.

Until I heard the old man calling Xiao Cui's name in his sleep.

As a woman, I naturally understand what kind of person can make a man think about her the most.

The less a woman can eat, the more she will miss him.

So she came up with this vicious idea.
