Chapter 11
The country is poor, and it is rare to eat meat. No matter which one serves wine and meat dishes, it seems like a robbery. She hasn't eaten meat for a long time, so she has to go back early and wait.

Xiao Ningxue shrugged her shoulders, feeling that life in ancient times was poor and it was difficult to eat a meal of meat.

It's a pity that she didn't dare to take out so many fish and meat eggs in the space supermarket, but the days are long, and she will take them out slowly in the future, just be careful of Mrs. Xiao and the others.

After the two returned, many people from the Xiao family had already arrived, all of them looked sad.

Because he died in vain and was young, there was no white cloth hanging on the gate, so he simply had a feast and was about to be carried up the mountain at night.

The grave was the one that the old lady Xiao, his mother-in-law and his daughter-in-law dug for Xiao Ningxue. It was ready-made and saved a lot of trouble.I just don't know what Yufen's mood is, she originally dug it for Xiao Ningxue, but in the blink of an eye she used it for her own daughter, alas, the only way is that the world is impermanent!

Xiaoyue was thinking about eating meat, so she found a seat early and sat down, drooling and waiting for the food to be served.

Xiao Ningxue went to the backyard, but she was curious how Xiao Mengyao's body was swollen like that, how could it be buried?

Hey, in the past, I found that the ancients had many methods. The air in the corpse's stomach was forced out, and it was a whole circle smaller, but it was barely buried in an adult's coffin.

After dealing with these family members who came to help, they sat down and were ready for the banquet.

At this moment there was a rush of horseshoes, presumably Gao Tutou came back from beating the county, and I don't know if Zhang Xiucai found it, Xiao Shan just sat down, then stood up quickly, and rushed out to greet him.

It was indeed Catcher Gao who came, and he brought two small cops with him. Three murders happened one after another, and the Yamen had to pay more attention to it and sent more manpower.

Behind them was another person, Zhang Xiucai who had been missing for a few days.

Zhang Xiucai had an unshaven beard, black eyes, and bowed his head in grief.

It seems that he didn't run away, and he doesn't know where Catcher Gao found him.

Without waiting for everyone to ask, Catcher Gao began to speak.

"This good-for-nothing boy, who huddles in a brothel to drink away his sorrows, is also a lover, and he has lost his fiancée to this point!"

Zhang Xiucai looked devastated, "What do you care about me? What's the point of my life without Mengyao? Make me drunk to death."

While talking, he stumbled into the courtyard gate and went to the backyard, "Mengyao, I'm here, I'm here to see you off for the last time..."

Xiao Ningxue looked at that extremely sad back, no matter how she looked at it, she didn't think it was a faux pas, maybe he had also fallen in love with Xiao Mengyao.

Gao Butou shook his head and sighed, "Man, you can't escape the word love!"

After the group entered the courtyard and sat down, the food and wine were served.

They didn't sit at this table with anyone else, Gao Butou, Xiao Zhao and Xiao Zhang, two small police officers, and they were the only ones who wouldn't shy away from being at the same table with Wu, of course, there was Xiao Ningxue.

Xiao Ningxue obediently sat beside Xiao Shan, and poured a bowl of wine for her father and Uncle Zhao.

"Don't bother sister Ke, we'll do it ourselves." Seeing Xiao Ningxue holding the jug, Xiao Zhao and Xiaozhang hurriedly took it over. Xiao Ningxue often followed Xiao Shan in and out of the county government office, and everyone knew each other very well.

Catcher Gao took a sip of his wine from the sea bowl, and asked about Wang Butcher's case.

"Wang Tuhu was killed last night." Xiao Shan said, "The method of death is exactly the same as that of Zhang San, even the number of branches stuck into his body is the same, a total of 49."

"49... There is a folk saying that if 49 nails are nailed on the coffin, the soul of a person can be suppressed, and people can't be reborn forever. The murderer didn't think of such an effect, did he?"

"Who knows? If so, how much hatred would there be!"

Xiao Shan chatted and drank with Gao Tutou here, and he didn't forget to pick up vegetables for his precious daughter on the other side, with a bowl full of meat, and told him lovingly.

"Eat more, the little girl's family is white and fat, so she can find her husband's family."

Catcher Gao laughed when he heard that, "Old Xiao, you are so worried about your daughter's marriage. Your ears are almost getting calloused by your words. Why don't you think about Xiao Zhao and Xiao Zhang?"

Xiao Zhao and Xiao Zhang immediately blushed. The eighteen or nineteen-year-old boy was just shy and shy. The two of them were quite interested in Xiao Ningxue, and they would sneak glances at her from time to time.

Xiao Ningxue looked indifferent, stuffed a piece of meat into her mouth, and said in a vague voice, "Father, I won't marry until I'm eighteen." Modern age is only eighteen, and she couldn't marry her before that.

When Xiao Shan heard this, he immediately became impatient, "Well, how can this work? Which girl doesn't get married as soon as she is young?" After speaking, he turned his back and let out a series of violent coughs.

His own body knows that this damn corpse poison is eroding him every day, and it is still unknown whether he can last until then.

He used to think that if he was dead, he still had family members after all, but after staying at home for so many days, he finally understood that his mother and two younger brothers only recognized money but not people, and they never regarded Xue girl as their relatives at all. Throwing her hands away, she might be sold somewhere by them.

So he had to find a reliable man for Maid Xue before he died, otherwise how could he feel at ease!
Seeing Xiao Shan coughing like this, Xiao Ningxue was extremely worried, she stroked her chest and beat her back, and finally could only respond obediently.

"Okay, Dad, hurry up and be gentle, my daughter will listen to you in everything."

After hearing Xiao Ningxue's words, Xiao Shan let go of his heart and gradually recovered.

Catcher Gao quickly winked at Xiao Zhao and Xiao Zhang: "Xiao Zhao and Xiao Zhang, why don't you introduce yourself quickly?"

The fat and water don't flow into the fields of outsiders, and the girl Xue is clever and clever. If she can look up to her two stupid apprentices, that would be great.

Xiao Zhao and Xiao Zhang hurriedly stood up blushing.

"My name is Zhao Laigui, I am 19 years old, I have three brothers in my family, and my family is in the next door Huaihe Village..."

"My name is Zhang Xiangyang. There are six brothers in my family. My family lives in Zhangjia Village near the county seat..."

Looking at the two honest and honest young men, Xiao Ningxue really didn't want to hurt them, so she turned her eyes to Xiao Shan.

"Father, why don't you just choose one of them? I just want to marry the policeman, so that I can help my husband investigate the case and autopsy together in the future."

Xiao Shan originally thought that these two guys were pretty good, but he waved his hands again and again when he heard this, "That's no good, it's good for girls to stay at home and teach their husbands and children, how can they keep thinking about these things?"

"No, dad, if I want to marry, I'll marry you, please!"

While talking, she was shaking the old father's arm, but she was secretly laughing in her heart. The more she behaved like this, the less her father would agree to her appointment. She has a stubborn temper. If she marries a policeman, she will definitely not be idle, and she will definitely help her husband intervene in the case. Yes, this is not what he wants to see.

Xiao Shan really thought so, he kept shaking his head.

"Oh, it's too early, it's too early to talk about it now, let's talk about it when I'm 15 years old."

This meant disagreement, so Xiao Zhao and Xiao Zhang could only sit down in disappointment.

It's not Xiao Shan's fault, after all, which father doesn't want his daughter to marry a rich man to live a comfortable life?Besides, sister Ke is so good-looking, they really don't deserve it.

Seeing their disappointed faces, Xiao Shan couldn't bear it, so he quickly changed the subject.

"When did Zhang Xiucai go to the county? Is his suspicion completely cleared?"

Gao Butou ate a piece of meat, took a sip of wine, smacked his mouth and opened his mouth.

"I went there five days ago. He didn't have time to commit the crime." After speaking, he added, "All the money has been spent. If I hadn't gone in time, he would have sold off the ancestral land!"

Xiao Shan shook his head helplessly, "He can't be so depraved because of this matter and ruin his future, alas."

While talking, the meal was quickly finished, and the sun was about to set at this time.

Everyone was full and full of strength, so they yelled and went to the backyard, and carried the coffin up the mountain.

Not long after, Xiao Mengyao was buried. After going down the mountain, the family members dispersed. The patriarch was about to leave, but was stopped by Yufen and Xiao Hong.

"Patriarch, you have to make the decision for my family, Mengyao. She was not murdered at all, but was forced to death by Xiao Ningxue. This matter can't just be left as it is, woo woo woo!"

No one knew how regretful she was these few days, what kind of corpse did Xiao Ningxue have to examine, and insisted that Mengyao was forced to death by her? The 100 taels of compensation has already been obtained.

Now that the murderer can't be found out, hasn't Mengyao become an unjust dead ghost?I don't know who to turn to for money...

The more Yufen thought about it, the more unwilling she became. After discussing with Xiao Hong, she decided to change her words, and no matter what, Mengyao must not die in vain.

The head of the patriarch is also full of black lines. He knows that Mrs. Xiao's family is difficult, but he didn't expect it to be so difficult.

Not to mention that all the money Xiao Shan worked so hard to earn as a gangster is in their hands, but now he still wants to blackmail his brother through Mengyao girl, this character is really hard to describe in words!
Seeing Xiao Hongyufen lose her face, "Whether girl Mengyao committed suicide is up to you to decide, the people in the yamen are here, they have their own conclusions."

"There are always mistakes in the case in this yamen, right? Didn't you still suspect Zhang Xiucai before?" Yufen glanced carefully at Gao Butou, "Gao Butou, tell me, did my Mengyao hang herself?" of?"

Catcher Gao nodded, "Indeed."

"Yes, it's over." Yufen raised her voice immediately, and looked at Xiao Shan, "Uncle, I remembered that the scratches on Mengyao's body were made by me accidentally."

"At that time, Mengyao's body was full of filth. I really couldn't see it, so I took off all the dirty clothes on her body~~ Those scratches were made when I moved the corpse to the bed."

Xiao Hong also quickly echoed, "It's true, it's inconvenient for me to be a father, so I'll just wait outside the door."

Everyone sighed secretly when they heard this, especially Gao Butou.

The cause of Xiao Mengyao's death is indeed different from that of Zhang San and Wang Butcher. The reason why she was determined to be a homicide is based on the wounds on her body and the strangle marks on her neck. Now that Xiao Mengyao's parents are so sloppy, no one can determine that she was murder.

Xiao Ningxue was not surprised by their behavior, no one knew the virtues of these people better than her.

It would be good to let my father see their true colors clearly, so as to save them from working hard like cows and horses, dragging on a whole body of illnesses and being reluctant to spend money on treatment.

So she didn't speak, and stood silently watching the play.

Xiao Shan looked at Xiao Hongyu and said earnestly: "Second brother, my brother just asked you a question, is what your mother-in-law said true?"

Xiao Hong's eyes flickered for a moment, and he hooked his head a little guilty, but he could feel the sharp eyes of his own wife coming over, and he straightened his back in a hurry.

"Of course it's true, can we still lie?"

Xiao Shan's heart was also completely cold at this moment.

"Okay, okay, you guys have explained the scratches on your body clearly. There are so many strangle marks on the neck, it's not something Mengyao can get out by herself, right?"

"Why can't it be strangled?" Yufen squeezed her waist with both hands and straightened her chest, "Maybe she was hesitant when she hanged herself, and stepped on the stool to hang herself several times, so wouldn't she be strangled several times?"

This sounds reasonable, but only Wu Zuo knows that it is impossible to step on a stool to get such deep strangle marks on his neck.

Once the neck is tightly strangled, he will kick his legs hard in a panic, and the first thing is to kick the stool over!

But these Xiao Shans understood, but others did not. For a moment, the people watching nodded their heads, thinking that it was indeed possible.

Yufen looked smug, as long as Xiao Ningxue forced Mengyao to death, 100 taels of designation could be obtained, which is not a small amount, saving a little money is enough for Mingren to study and eat well at home.

Guilan pouted and watched from afar, feeling extremely upset, extorting so much money from Xiaoshan in one go, but she couldn't get any of it, she was going to die of anger.

"Mother, look at the second sister-in-law? The food is too ugly, and the relationship with the eldest brother is completely frozen..."

"Shut up." Before she could finish speaking, Mrs. Xiao slashed at her with a sharp look, "So what if you offend me? Xiao Ningxue has become so powerful now, and it won't be so easy to get money from Xiao Shan in the future." It’s over, why don’t you focus on your hands and pluck up the wool.”

After a pause, he added, "Don't worry, when I get the money, I will let the second child share it with you."

"Really, mother? Mother, you are so kind!" Guilan was so happy that she almost jumped up, and she covered her mouth when she realized that she was a little loud and busy, her eyes were full of excitement.

Soon, he looked at Old Madam Xiao strangely, and couldn't help but ask, "Mother, is elder brother your own? Why are you so cruel to him?" If it comes out?

"What do you say?"

"How do I know? It doesn't look like the two brothers Xiao Hong and Xiao Hai."

Mrs. Xiao gouged her out and didn't answer. It happened decades ago, so I don't mind mentioning it.

Over there, Xiao Shan looked at his second younger brother Xiao Hong with a sad face: "Gold and silver are priceless, family love is priceless, do you really want to turn against your brother for 100 taels of silver?"

Xiao Hong blushed, it was thanks to his eldest brother who earned money by working as a gangster to live such a good life all these years.The mistake was that he shouldn't pick up an abandoned baby and bring him back to raise. There are so many nephews and nieces, which one can't be adopted?

He used to take home all his monthly salary of four taels of silver, but since the year before last, he has only given him two taels of silver. Why did he want to save a dowry for that lowly girl of unknown origin!

This money has shrunk by half at once, how can it be enough for the family to spend?Guangmingren earns twelve taels a year after studying!For a cheap girl who has no blood relatives, she doesn't care about her family, and the one who doesn't want family affection is obviously him!
Thinking of these, Xiao Hong was puffed up, and said with a gloomy face:

"Brother, let's settle the score. Eldest brother can't let my daughter die in vain because of a girl who has nothing to do with the Xiao family?"

"What a dear brother, you can settle accounts clearly, so do you want to calculate the money I got back over the years?"

"His uncle, what you said is wrong. Your silver is for filial mother, what has it to do with us?" Yufen crossed her arms, her thin cheeks were full of meanness.
