Our Mommy is the Best Investigator! Chapter 327

Chapter 327 The big melon that fell from the sky

"Misunderstand?"

After hearing Chu Nanzhi's words, Zhao Taigong nodded suspiciously: "But just now, the old man heard from the servants who came back that Mrs. Chu went to the county government office, and she was very depressed when she came out. Could it be that she was embarrassed by the poor settlement? You Don't hide anything from this old man."

"Then it's even less relevant to this matter."

Chu Nanzhi looked at his concerned face, but did not dare to hide it, and replied truthfully: "It's just because of a murder case in the clan, my family went to the county government."

"The case in Lin Tingzhen's house?"

Zhao Taigong couldn't help asking.

This incident has caused a lot of noise in the county in the past two days.

Chu Nanzhi replied: "Yes."

"Isn't this case closed, is there any problem?"

Mentioning this matter, Zhao Taigong couldn't help but look sad: "If you say that the head of the Lin family is also a tolerant person, he has taken in other people's children for so many years, not only has he not treated them harshly, but he has treated them as if they were his own. The second mother of the family finally got a blessing in disguise, and met a nobleman."

"Other people's children?"

Chu Nanzhi seemed to hear a thunderbolt from the blue sky, her ears were buzzing.

This is really a big melon that fell from the sky.

She asked a little excitedly: "Could it be that the grandfather and the head of the Lin family, Jiang Xiaoniang, recognize each other?"

"Nature is known."

Eunuch Zhao buried his head calmly, and sighed softly: "The second wife of the Jiang family was originally the younger sister of the old man's second wife, Jiang Yuqing. When he was in Tong County, he often lived in the old man's house."

"I see."

The question that had puzzled her for a long time finally got the answer at this moment, and Chu Nanzhi's heart was still boiling with enthusiasm, which was still difficult to calm down.

When I went to the Zhao Mansion before, I heard him mention Xuxian's wife, Jiang Shi, but I never thought that Jiang Xiaoniang was also his old friend.

At the moment, I just suspect that Jiang Xiaoniang killed her daughter, and it is not easy to say it clearly. She pretended to be curious and continued to ask: "Just now the grandfather said that the Jiang family was a blessing in disguise. What is the reason for this?"

Hearing this, Mr. Zhao suddenly became alert, and asked cautiously: "Why is Mrs. Chu so interested in the affairs of the Jiang family's second wife?"

"Hey, women, they are bored at home all day long, and don't always like to hear strange things."

Chu Nanzhi smiled innocently.

"You are quite honest."

After Zhao Taigong finished speaking, he waved to the servants in the hall, sent everyone out, and then pointedly glanced at Sang Qi beside Chu Nanzhi.

"This is my personal envoy, she is my sister, she won't talk nonsense outside."

Chu Nanzhi saw that Sang Qi was the only servant left in the room, but she didn't dare to send her out.

Zhao Taigong nodded hesitantly, and said with a warm smile: "It's okay, anyway, it's something old."

After thinking for a while, a look of shame gradually appeared in his eyes, and he said in a low tone:

"Speaking of this matter, it's old, isn't it? When Jiang Erniang came to my house, it was the time when Wu Enrong made friends with the old man. Wu Enrong was greedy for Erniang's beauty, and Erniang was obsessed with Wu Enrong's power. She wanted to marry Entering Wu's house, the two had a love affair with her elder sister behind the back of the old man, and even made a private appointment for life.

When the old man and her elder sister found out, Erniang was already pregnant. At that time, Wu Enrong clinged to the young lady of the high official's family in the county, broke his promise and abandoned Erniang's mother and daughter, and married the current Wen family. She was expelled from the family and almost died by being immersed in a pig cage. Fortunately, an old woman beside her rescued her, and she left her hometown and came to Luyan Port. "

"Wu Enrong's affair with Jiang Xiaoniang is also a matter of your love and my wish. Why should the grandfather blame himself?"

In just over a month, Chu Nanzhi has heard Wu Enrong's name several times.

The majestic prefect of Pingning County did not expect the past to be so miserable.

First, in order to curry favor with Mr. Zhao, he instigated him to abandon his wife, Jiang Yuqing, and marry his elder sister, the Wu family.

Such a person is really disgusting to the extreme.

Thanks to myself, I didn't go to the county to decide Cao Cao's history last month.

Zhao Taigong sighed, and continued: "When Jiang Erniang and the old woman next to her found the old man, the old man had already married Wu Enrong's elder sister and moved the family to Luyan Port. She wanted the old man to be the master for her, but Wu Enrong I have been promoted to be the prefect of Pingning County, how dare this old man offend, I am afraid that my late mother and wife Wu will find out about this, so I hastily gave her a hundred taels of silver and sent her away."

So later she fell into prostitution and became a busker.

Chu Nanzhi guessed.

I don't know how this beautiful woman hooked up with Lin Tingzhen while she was pregnant, let alone whether Lin Tingzhen knew that Jiang Erniang was pregnant at that time?

Zhao Taigong saw her in a daze thoughtfully, and slapped the table heavily with deep thoughts, and said in a deep voice: "Wu Enrong is the person I regret the most in my life, and I only hate that he didn't die back then. In Tong County, after all, Jiang Erniang is the one to blame, she harmed the old man and herself."

"What does Grandpa mean by this?"

Chu Nanzhi was taken aback by his sudden sharp slap, and quickly raised her head to look at him closely.

Zhao Taigong's eyebrows were sunken, and he explained rather annoyed: "When he was in the upper reaches of Huiran Lake in Tong County, he almost fell into the lake and drowned. If Jiang Erniang hadn't rescued him, he wouldn't have the blessings he has today. "

"My little aunt can still swim?"

Chu Nanzhi asked in surprise.

"There is no woman who grew up on a fishing boat who doesn't know how to swim."

Zhao Taigong did not expect this woman to be so gossip, but with an attitude of admiring her, he patiently explained to her clearly.

Chu Nanzhi suddenly realized, and all the problems were solved.

Combined with the clues that Lin Jinxiao deduced together in the county government office, it seems that Jiang Xiaoniang was the murderer of Lin Sanniang.

This trip was really not in vain, and there was such an unexpected harvest.

After finding out the reason of the matter, she didn't intend to stay here any longer, so she was about to get up and leave. Mr. Zhao frowned in a panic: "Ms. Chu is leaving now?"

"The misunderstanding between me and my humble husband has been clarified to the grandfather. I appreciate the kindness of the grandfather, but there are still children at home who need to be taken care of, so I will go back first."

Chu Nanzhi was worried that he would be entangled in Lin Jinxiao's divorce, so she just wanted to leave quickly.

"If it's true what Mrs. Chu said, the matter between you and your wife is just a misunderstanding, then this old man has to keep you here. This county magistrate has openly opposed the entire wealthy family in Luyan Port since he first took office. He cares about the common people, which is admirable, but the powerful and evil gentry in Luyan Port have occupied this place for many years, and the forces involved behind it involve all the dignitaries in Jingling City, and I am afraid that he cannot be shaken by himself."

At this point, Zhao Taigong stopped suddenly, motioned her to sit down again, and continued seriously:

"Ms. Chu is very kind to my Zhao family. Whether Lin Jinxiao lives or dies has nothing to do with this old man, but this old man will never tolerate Mrs. Chu being burdened by him. Mrs. Chu also saw it today. This old man has no malice towards you. There is awe."

Chu Nanzhi looked out of the hall, there were maids and nurses standing neatly around the door. Everything from entering the door to the present seemed to be aboveboard, but she really didn't intend to insult or frame her lightly.

He is indeed the richest man in Luyan Port. Even though he is overbearing, he does everything in an upright manner without playing tricks behind his back.

This is quite admirable.
