Chapter 250 What's the point?

Twelve Foods was still busy in the afternoon, diners chatted from guessing the situation inside to scholar Lang frantically killing his wife and hiding the corpse, and the police team rushed to the county school to arrest the people.

The county government immediately posted a portrait of Zhang Changrong with the suspect's physical characteristics on the bulletin board, and sent a fast-track police officer to go straight to Mrs. Zhang's natal village.

Jing Chao deduced that the deceased had died within ten days, and the information from the interview showed that Zhang Changrong had taken leave of absence from class three days ago.

The county town has sent more people to patrol, but the people are not very afraid, and they eat and drink as usual.

"Twelve taels, whoever catches Zhang Xiucai and sends them to the county government office can be regarded as a small fortune." The diner took a sip of his wine, squinted his eyes and looked up at the government servants passing by in a hurry outside the window.

"Is this money so easy to get? Even my own wife can be ruthless, and she will catch you without a fight and let you be tied up to receive a reward? Seeing it is not easy to run away and want to arrest him. It will be all right if you don't stab your stomach twice." It's not worthy of a bulletin board." The diner who just arrived next to him bluntly continued.

"Hey? Tell me, why did he kill his wife? I heard that his daughter-in-law is good-looking and obedient to him. The neighbors say that they have never heard a word of quarrel in his house. Is it peaceful?"

A woman holding a basin walked in at the door, listening to the discussion there, standing in front of the big food cabinet while putting braised meat in the basin and talking.

"That's not true. My family lives in Liuchang Lane. Zhang Changrong is withdrawn and doesn't like to talk. His wife was very lively when he first came here. She even gave out wedding candies to our son who lives next door. How can life be difficult?" Bickering, I have seen Mrs. Zhang with swollen eyes several times when she went out to buy vegetables, and it looks like she cried at night."

"Didn't it mean that she is pretty good-looking, and she serves her man wholeheartedly, and there is no mother-in-law overpowering her. What grievances can she have?" When the diner heard that it was Zhang Changrong's neighbor, he immediately raised his voice to chime in.

The woman snorted without smiling, "A rough man is a rough man, he only cares about other people's wives looking good. You say that a woman can have any grievances, and if you say a thousand words and ten thousand things, it is a man who doesn't hurt or not. Be considerate, what else can I have?"

She rolled her eyes, put the basin on the small platform and asked Caijuan to weigh it and count the money.Tilting his head, he looked her up and down, and his lips turned into a smile.

"You see, this shopkeeper's wife is loved and protected by her husband's family. She can see the warmth in her eyebrows whether she smiles or not. But she looks so good-looking, and every man likes it. Even we women think it's beautiful very."

Caijuan pursed her lips, smiled and reported the money in a warm voice, but didn't follow the words.

The woman complimented her, but her eyes were full of jealousy.At this time, no matter what she said, it would be a show off in the eyes of others, and she could not follow up with anything.

Shu Yingtong took the copper coin from Caijuan, and frowned slightly, "You come to learn how to keep accounts, just follow the format I am writing now. If there is nothing else in these few days, I will go back to the village. Zhu Yu is impatient. Do these."

Guo Liuniang worked swiftly, and everyone got used to the busy rhythm of the shop.It's time for the city residents to hunt for novelties, and the rest are individual tourists who come here, and after three days of busy work, the business will be on the right track.

It didn't make much difference whether she was there or not, there were other things to do in the village and it was time to go back.

The short period before the evening market is when the shops are empty.Those who do small business rushed home, and the people nearby weighed some marinade before going back to add a dish.

Twelve Foods also took advantage of this time to eat, and when the dinner market got busy, they didn't have time to take care of their stomachs.

Jing Chao came back with the gourd grandson pinching his meal, washed his hands and walked to the dining table with pride, with the words "Hurry up and ask me" written all over his face.

"Father Jing, what news did you go to the county government to inquire about?" Zhu Yu, who loves to join in the fun, couldn't wait to ask without reminding him.

In the past two days, it’s hard to think about it or not. One group of diners come to talk about this matter, and the next group of diners still talk about it. All kinds of true and false fabrications are flying all over the city like snowflakes.

The matter that had nothing to do with me originally made the diners arouse their curiosity, wishing to know where the case is going and whether anyone has caught it.

"I still don't have a clue." Father Jing raised a big smile meanly.

"Then what are you looking like!" Zhu Yu glared at him angrily, and buried her head in the rice angrily.

"I just like to see the faces of you who are full of hope and soon disappointed, hahaha~"

Shu Yingtong twitched the corners of her mouth, if it wasn't for her strength, the old man would probably be beaten to death sooner or later.

Several people were eating, and there were several voices of different heights outside the door.

"Just this one, it smells pretty good. I'm so tired from running around, I'm going to find a foot shop to rest after eating."

"You really are, why are you so careless and let him go, where can you find him now!"

"It's my fault. I didn't think about it that much at the time. She didn't have any relatives or friends here. I thought she had gone back."

"Hmph, I thought the third brother had a lot of face in Wu's house. We came so far away, we can't even get a meal, and we have to sleep outside at night!"

"Sister-in-law, don't be upset. The Wu family is busy with business right now, so I can't take care of these things. Fang'er also told me to treat you well. Brother, let the store make you a pot of good wine."

When a few people stepped into the door, Caijuan had already put down her bowls and chopsticks and greeted her with a smile, "Guests sit inside."

"Hey, Liuniang, why are you shaking?" Zhu Yu tilted his head and looked at the pale-faced Guo Liuniang with concern.

Shu Yingtong lowered her face and turned her head to look at the door. There was an old couple, a middle-aged strong woman, and a scholar in her early twenties with a square scarf and a long gown.

Although it was the first time I saw him, the scholar's appearance was somewhat familiar, and he was very similar to Niu Niu who was snuggling in Guo Liuniang's arms.

"Ha, by accident, I met you two daring bastards here! Come back with us now!" The strong woman knocked Caijuan away, rolled up her sleeves and strode towards the corner dining table.

"What are you doing! Who are you!" Zhu Yu dropped the chopsticks and slapped the table, dropped the rice bowl and stood up to meet him.

"You don't care who I am!" The strong woman put one hand on her hips and pushed Zhu Yu rudely with the other hand, "The bastard is still sitting, don't you see your parents and third brother, come here and kneel down for them! Looking for you made us run and break our legs in the city!"

Zhu Yu held her chest up and refused to budge, her round eyes were blazing with fire, "So it's your family who got paid a thousand dollars? I haven't troubled you yet, so I came here to hurt us first?!"

"Zhu Yu, reason with her." Shu Yingtong put down the bowl slowly, and wiped her mouth with a handkerchief.

"What's the point? We'll have it if we say we're going to break the sky." There was a crisp sound, and the woman covered her face and stared at Zhu Yu in disbelief, "Ah! Why did you hit me!"

Zhu Yu flicked his wrist, "Why, why should I hit you, my hands are itchy!"

After speaking, there was another slap, and the slap on the other side was also repaired.
