After being bound to the learning system in my mother's womb, I became the empress

Chapter 248 The sober-minded widow

Yuniang: "Xibao, do you remember sister Cao Ying?"

Lin Xilai remembered it after thinking about it, "Yeah, I know, Liu Hong's sister-in-law, what happened to her?"

Yu Niang: "She killed someone."

Lin Xi: "Oh? Who did she kill?"

Yu Niang: "Dad Liu and Hei Shidan."

Lin Xi had already forgotten about the Liu family. After all, the Liu family had been almost killed by her and could no longer stand up.

Unexpectedly, the Liu family, with only three members left, could actually cause murder.

"what happened?"

Yuniang told her mysteriously: "One time I met Sister Cao Ying in the mountains and saw her picking toadstools, so I reminded her that the fungi were poisonous and should not be eaten. Sister Cao Ying thanked me.

"A few days later, Father Liu and Hei Shidan died. Hao Po went to see them and said they died from eating poisonous fungi. Only Sister Cao Ying was fine.

"She said that she was cooking that day and found that there was no salt at home, so she went to borrow salt from someone else's house. Unexpectedly, when she returned home, she found that Father Liu and Hei Shidan were lying on the ground, out of breath.

"She also said that she didn't know that the fungus was poisonous... I've been thinking about it these days. I suspect that Sister Cao Ying deliberately used the fungus to kill Father Liu and Hei Shidan."

Lin Xi curled her lips. After her stupidity was cured, Yu Niang became smarter and smarter.

It should be said that she was originally smart, but she was ill and forced to be a fool.

"Have you told anyone else about this?"

Yuniang: "No."

As for why you should tell Xibao?
Although Yu Niang didn't know that Lin Xi "knew it from birth", she had an intuition that she was very reliable, and nothing would be a big deal when it came to her, and she had an inexplicable trust in her.

Lin Xi touched her head and said, "You did a good job. Don't tell anyone else in the future."

Yu Niang arched her neck, "Well, this is a secret between us."

Lin Xi patted her back: "Okay, go to sleep."

While Yu Niang was sleepy, Lin Xi gave her some psychological counseling.

Chun Niang wrote to her last time, saying that Yu Niang was frightened by the disaster that happened in the store. Although she seemed fine, she was easily frightened. Obviously, the incident left a deep psychological shadow on her. .

You have to provide timely guidance.

Otherwise, if you keep it in your heart for a long time, something will happen sooner or later.

After the counseling, Lin Xi did not fall asleep, but gently came out of Yu Niang's arms and went to Liu's house.

Now Cao Ying is the only one left in the huge Liu family.

She scanned around with her mental energy and knew Cao Ying's location.

"Ah, let me go..."

Cao Ying had a nightmare, shaking her head and struggling, as if she had experienced something bad in her dream.

Lin Xi took the opportunity to hypnotize her, "You deliberately used toadstools to kill Father Liu and Hei Shidan, right?"

Cao Ying closed her eyes tightly and gritted her teeth: "Yes, these two beasts deserve to die!
"That old immortal came into my house while I was sleeping, and even though he was half dead, he still wanted to do that kind of thing with me.

"I definitely couldn't let him succeed. I struggled desperately, and the little beast ran over. I quickly asked him for help and asked him to call someone, but he actually helped the old immortal to hold me down..."

"Do you know what that old guy said? He said that I was already a widow, and I deliberately dressed so showily and dangled in front of him every day, just to seduce him.

"Bah! I'm trying to seduce an old guy with a wrinkled face and the smell of urine? He doesn't even urinate to show off what he is!"
"Afterwards, he bragged to me, saying that his second son was the leader of some gang and that he was in charge of thousands of people. He also said that his son would soon take him to live a better life, so he asked me to follow him and wear clothes from now on. Jin Daiyin enjoys good food and drinks, and enjoys an endless good life.

"Damn it! I'm going to brag about it to the sky. With his virtue, how can his son be the leader of thousands of people? If his son is the leader of the gang, then I will still be the Queen Mother in heaven!" Lin Xi thought thoughtfully, Father Liu’s second son?

She didn't care about the members of the Liu family, so she didn't know. It turned out that Father Liu had three sons.

His eldest son Liu Jingen had died in her hands, and his younger son Liu Shuigen was a retired veteran and now serves as the village chief.

According to the order of the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, wouldn't his second son be named Liu Mugen?
Why have I never heard of this person?
Lin Xi didn't think much about it. She didn't come here for the dead Father Liu.

But for Yu Niang.

"You learned about the toadstools from Yu Niang, and then used the toadstools to kill people. Aren't you afraid that Yu Niang will report you?"

Cao Ying: "That's just a little fool. Who would believe what she says?"

Lin Xi: "Then what if Yu Niang is not stupid?"

Yu Niang's illness has been cured. Sooner or later, the villagers will find that she is no longer stupid. By then, will Cao Ying feel scared and want to get rid of Yu Niang to avoid exposing her murder?
What Cao Ying doesn't know is that her next answer will determine her life or death.

Once she answers "yes", what awaits her is ruthless murderous intent.

Cao Ying obviously hesitated, but her answer was: "No, I was able to kill those two beasts with toadstools, thanks to Yu Niang.

"They died, and now I am the only widow left in the Liu family. I plan to sell the Liu family yard, take the money, go back to my parents' family, and find someone to remarry.

"Even if Yu Niang is not stupid by then, I will have already run away. Am I still afraid that she will report me?"

Lin Xi: This Cao Ying is quite clear-headed.

For the sake of her sobriety, she was willing to give her a little boost.

"Is getting married better than being a widow? You have a house, land and a career (making tofu), you have no worries about food and clothing, and you don't have to take care of a big family. Why should you get married and make yourself suffer?"

Cao Ying was stunned by what she said.

The concept that had been instilled in her since she was a child was that she should find someone to marry, give her husband children, and serve her parents-in-law well...

Lin Xi's words opened a door to a new world for her.

"But if I don't get married, how will I live as a widow? Can I keep this house? I don't have children, what will I do when I get old?"

Lin Xi is not a living Bodhisattva and has no extra kindness to solve Cao Ying's life problems.

Being able to tell Cao Ying so much was because she had no intention of harming Yu Niang.

So she didn't answer Cao Ying's questions.

Before leaving, she used her mental power to carefully scan the house that once belonged to the Lin family.

Maybe Father Lin has hidden treasures in other nooks and crannies.

Since he once hid the treasure in the kitchen cave, Lin Xi focused on scanning the places where things might be hidden.

Even the roof beams and the bottom of the latrine were not spared.

This scan really made her find something.

There is a small hole under the bed in Liu Laogen's room, with a clay pot hidden in it.

Lin Xi went over and dug it out. There were some copper coins and silver hidden in the clay pot, which was probably the private money hidden by Mr. Liu.

In addition, there is something unusual inside.

A fish bone finger.
