After time travel, I ate glutinous rice bran in ancient times

Painter Xiao Qi looked at the pale-faced Jin Baochai and sighed: "Baochai, forget it, you don't have to argue with your brother and sister-in-law anymore."

"Let's pay for your mother's funeral. After all, this is the last time!"

"Brother Qi, thank you" Jin Baochai cried after hearing this.

……

Wang Yugui sighed after watching the excitement. When Wang heard about it, she also sighed: "Ah, what kind of son did the Jin family give birth to!"

"Brother, why don't sister Jin have any relatives? Her brother is such a jerk, she can't control him, but can the Jin family members control him?" asked the eldest sister.

Wang Yugui sighed: "Alas, their family is a small one, and they don't have many relatives in the local area."

"I heard from the neighbors that there are only a few distant relatives. Even if we invite them, we don't know if they can come!"

"Yes, last time Baochai's father died, I heard that not many relatives came, and the funeral was arranged by Painter Xiao Qi." Wang listened and nodded.

He added: "Ah, Baochai must be very angry. This child is really in such a difficult situation."

"The situation now is different from when her father died. Now, Painter Xiao Qi is having a quarrel with him."

"She didn't dare to ask Painter Xiao Qi, so she had to hold back her anger and argue with her brother and sister-in-law."

"Hey, finally Painter Xiao Qi took pity on her and offered to help with her mother's funeral!"

"Oh my, Sister Jin's brother and sister-in-law are so mean, how could they even sell my coffin?" The eldest sister was very angry.

He then asked Wang Yugui, "Brother, did the government arrest her brother and sister-in-law?"

"The mourning hall had just been set up. After a while, someone from the government office came and took the couple away for questioning." Wang Yugui nodded.

Then he said to his mother, "Mom, I've already brought two pieces of paper to express my condolences!"

"Oh, good." Wang nodded hurriedly after hearing this, and then asked, "So are Baochai and her husband keeping vigil for her mother now?"

"Yes," Wang Yugui nodded, and said, "Fortunately, the neighbors around are quite nice, and they all help Miss Jin and her husband."

"Well, it is said that distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors." Wang sighed after hearing this.

As he said this, he frowned again: "Now that Baochai's mother is gone, she won't have anything to worry about at her mother's home. She should be able to live her life wholeheartedly with Painter Xiao Qi in the future!"

After listening to this, Wang Yugui nodded and thought: Maybe for Jin Baochai, her mother's death means she is relieved.

In the afternoon, Wang Yugui wrote another letter. In the evening, he asked Ah Huang to deliver it to Miss Tan together with the letter he had written last night.

Miss Tan was very happy when she received the letter. After not seeing each other for a few days, Wang Yugui brought her a lot of new things...

Over there, Wang Yugui also received the letter that Miss Tan had written to him these few days. He was smiling and reading it happily while lying on the bed...

Suddenly, I stopped laughing

Miss Tan said that this year, her parents will take their entire family to her uncle's home in Huaizhou on the sixth day of the Chinese New Year.

She will probably not be back until after the Lantern Festival, so she can’t go boating on the lake with Wang Yugui during this year’s Lantern Festival!

"Oh, how could this happen?" Wang Yugui was so angry that he sat up and sighed.

I had been looking forward to going boating on the lake alone with Miss Tan, but now my dream has been shattered.

Alas, what's the point of Lantern Festival without Miss Tan?

……

The next afternoon, Wang Yugui took the opportunity of riding his horse to the parade ground to go to the yamen to look for Captain Liu.

There is nothing else to do, I am just curious about how Jin Baochai's mother died!

"Hey, Painter Xiao Wang, this girl from the Jin family is really amazing!" Captain Liu laughed.

He added, "Yesterday morning, before our government office opened, she was at the door, beating the drum so loudly that it shook the heavens!"

"As soon as I arrived at the government office, Mr. Hai called me to go and see the scene together."

"Oh, Captain Liu, so you also went to investigate the scene yesterday." Wang Yugui smiled.

Captain Liu nodded and said, "Yes, it was thanks to the Jin couple that they knew to protect the scene and did not disturb the old lady's body."

"So, after Mr. Hai saw the scene, he was probably able to confirm that Mr. Jin's mother fell to her death."

"The coroner also confirmed this after the autopsy!"

After hearing this, Wang Yugui laughed inwardly: The Jin couple didn't know how to protect the scene at all. They were afraid of spending money and were waiting to force the Jin couple to pay for the funeral!

"Looking at the wound, although we can conclude that he died from a fall, we cannot conclude that the old man fell on his own. Could he have been pushed by someone else?" Wang Yugui asked hurriedly.

He had speculated about this question before. After listening to it, Captain Liu laughed: "Ha, Painter Xiao Wang, how could Lord Hai not have thought of what you said!"

"However, after carefully examining the scene, the professor at the University of Ocean University of China believed that the old man had most likely slipped and fallen."

"Oh, how do you know that?" Wang Yugui asked again.

Captain Liu said: "The old lady of the Jin family is too frugal. The soles of the cloth shoes she wears are worn thin and shiny."

"Master Hai tried his shoes on the ground. It was very slippery. There was even a slip mark on the ground where the old man fell!"

Captain Liu took a sip of tea and said, "Of course, we also recorded the confessions of Mr. and Mrs. Jin!"

"They both said that they both sleep very deeply and snore very loudly."

"So, the two of them didn't hear any noise in the main room, and they didn't know when the old lady fell!"

"Oh, then when did Mrs. Jin fall down?" Wang Yugui asked hurriedly.

Captain Liu sighed: "Well, it's only around five o'clock in the morning, it hasn't been long since he died."

"But the coroner said that she hit a fatal spot, so even if someone found her at the time, the old lady would not have survived!"

"Oh, so the old lady's death has nothing to do with Jin Da and his wife." Wang Yugui nodded after hearing this.

Captain Liu nodded: "Yes, originally Master Hai had some doubts, maybe it was Jin Da or Qiu Ju, one of them quarreled with the old lady and accidentally pushed her down!"

After hearing this, Wang Yugui thought to himself: Yeah, that’s what I thought too.

"But later, we asked the neighbors to investigate carefully," Captain Liu continued.

Then he laughed again: "Hey, Jin Da and his wife are really a pair of funny people."

"Neighbors said that the couple snored at night one after another."

"The neighbors can hear it in their own homes! It's like thunder. Yesterday, they also heard the snoring of Mr. and Mrs. Jin."

"The Jin couple usually talk very loudly at home. I often hear them arguing with his mother."

"However, at five o'clock yesterday, I really didn't hear any quarreling, I only heard them snoring!"

"So, the suspicions of Mr. and Mrs. Jin have been ruled out."

"Mrs. Jin's death was a complete accident. Maybe she had reached the end of her life span. Alas!"
