The Plow

While saying these words, Ling Shu's gaze never left Yue Dingtang's face.

The other party's reaction was beyond his expectation.

Yue Dingtang was slightly surprised.

"Why do you think so?"

Ling Shu didn't answer and asked instead: "Have you seen Du Yuning's body with your own eyes? Have you checked it yourself? That is indeed Du Yuning?"

Yue Dingtang fell into deep thought, and spoke slowly after a while.

"I remember that there was a red mole on her left wrist near the elbow. When she was in school, those female classmates joked about her, saying that it was Shou Gongsha. Also, she fell on a bicycle before, and her knee was left behind Scars. I've seen them all."

Now it was Ling Shu's turn to frown.

Yue Dingtang: "Why do you have such doubts?"

Ling Shu: "During my dealings with Du Yuning several times before she was alive, I discovered that she was not only dissatisfied with Yuan Bing, but also had the idea of ​​fleeing Yuan's house. She even proposed to elope with me the day before the accident. After being rejected by me, she once said a word."

"Ok?"

Yue Dingtang issued a questioning tone.

Ling Shu: "If you don't want to come with me, I'll go by myself, as far away as possible, to the ends of the earth, don't regret it."

Yue Dingtang: "That sounds like her tone."

Ling Shu was not happy: "Dare you think I'm making up a story?"

Yue Dingtang: "Of course not, but Yun Ning has always talked a lot and done little since she was a child. Although she was dissatisfied with her situation, she never had the courage to make a change. It was like this when she went to study abroad, and later she married Yuan Home, too."

Ling Shu: "If you rely on this sentence alone, of course you can't. Do you still remember that I told you that she wants to entrust a sum of property to me for safekeeping to avoid being taken away by Yuan Bing."

Yue Dingtang hummed, and didn't think Ling Shu was delaying time.

The other party will bring it up again at this time, there must be new content that was missed or not mentioned before.

Sure enough, he heard Ling Shu say: "At that time, she gave me a list of property, which listed the property she wanted to transfer. But I saw the handwriting of two people on it."

Yue Dingtang: "Could it be that her maid helped her write it together?"

Ling Shu: "I have learned that when she married to Yuan's family, she only brought a dowry with her, that is, the maid who is following her now, but the other party is illiterate."

Yue Dingtang: "In other words, there is another person who is helping her to make suggestions and help her leave Yuan's house."

Ling Shu: "Du Yuning has a weak character and no assertiveness. She alone has no courage to leave the Yuan family. In the past, when she asked me out, she only complained and cried. Until the last few times, she began to propose elopement until she took out her belongings. The list is for me to keep, step by step, quite planned, it's not like she can come up with it."

Yue Dingtang pondered: "So, you suspect that she used you as a murderer to attract other people's attention, and then took the opportunity to feign death and elope with others?"

Ling Shu: "I don't rule out the possibility."

Yue Dingtang: "Why didn't you tell such an important clue earlier?"

Ling Shu: "Because the timing of your appearance is so coincidental, I can't be sure whether you are related to Du Yuning."

Yue Dingtang: "Do you still think so now? If you say that your current situation is equivalent to being surrounded by enemies, I am the only one who can open up a way out for you. Don't you want to find out the real culprit for her and let her die?" How can she rest in peace? After all, she was once a good girl."

Ling Shu stopped talking.

Yue Dingtang couldn't tell anything from his expression.

A long time ago, Ling Shu was not like this.

This person will be competitive in academic performance, and will often tell others vividly about the current situation, social anecdotes, and I don't know where he knows so much news and stories. Every time after class, he is always surrounded by three layers of people. On the third floor, the students were happy to listen to his slightly exaggerated and ups and downs stories.

Although Yue Dingtang felt that those words were mostly nonsense, he actually liked to hear them. Which young man doesn't like to hear those bizarre stories?

He doesn't admit it in face, but he always stands quietly on the periphery, pretending to pass by casually, and rubs his ear.

Among the crowd, Ling Shu is always the focus of being chased. His expression is changeable, and there is a little bit of complacency in his high spirits, especially his eyes, which seem to be smiling even when he is not smiling, and are more vivid when his eyebrows are beaming.

It's definitely not what it is now, lazy, lacking fighting spirit, muddling along.

"I'm going out for a cigarette."

Yue Dingtang got up and went out, while fumbling in his pocket, he found that he came out in a hurry and forgot to bring his cigarettes.

Half a pack of cigarettes was thrown from Ling Shu, who frowned at him.

Before Yue Dingtang was touched for half a second, Ling Shu said: "I borrow one and pay two! I'm poor."

Yue Dingtang: ...

Ling Shu reckoned that he didn't really go out to smoke.

After all, when Shen Renjie sent him here before, there were still two police officers who escorted him waiting outside.

Shen Renjie didn't dare to take on this responsibility, and Yue Dingtang had to come forward to solve these troubles in person.

Sure enough, the one surnamed Yue came back before it was even half a cigarette.

Ling Yao and the old servant have already arranged a table of dishes.

It is not as exquisite as the Yue Mansion, but it is better than homely.

Ling Yao wiped his hands, and waved vigorously.

"It's too late to go out and buy your favorite dishes. Aunt Hong and I just made some casually. Please forgive me!"

Yue Dingtang glanced at it, and said with a smile: "Eldest sister, so many dishes are still called casual. I don't eat so much at home."

Ling Yao smiled and said, "That's different. If you are a guest, you will definitely be made to feel at home. Come on, sit down quickly, don't be shy, eat more, if you are not full today, I won't let you go out!"

Yue Dingtang originally didn't intend to keep the meal, but Ling Yao was very kind, and Ling Shu hadn't given him a final answer on Du Yuning's case, so he agreed and took off his coat and scarf.

Needless to say, the old servant immediately came to take it away and put it away, and then took it out and returned it before the guest left.

It is difficult for the servants of Xiaofu's family to have such sharpness and sharp eyesight. It is not difficult for someone with a heart to see the scenery of the Ling family from the details.

Yue Dingtang's gaze fell from the old servant to the dining table in front of him, and he inadvertently saw that the corners of the table were severely worn, and a table leg was padded with a little bit of paper.

Ling Yao's cooking skills are good. Yue Dingtang had eaten at Ling's house before, and she also cooked in person at that time. The long-lost familiar taste, coupled with Ling Yao's enthusiasm, was enough to offset Ling Shu's passivity and indifference.

"Dingtang, where are you getting high school now?"

Ling Yao scooped up a bowl of chicken soup for him and asked casually.

Yue Dingtang: "I am now teaching law in a university, and the main lecture is the history of Western legal system."

Ling Yao's eyes lit up: "This job is good, decent and leisurely. Are there many educated female teachers in the school?"

Yue Dingtang: "There are some, but not many."

Ling Shu felt bad: "There seems to be someone knocking on the door outside, I'll go and have a look."

"sit down!"

Ling Yao shouted, performed a body-holding technique on Ling Shu, and then looked at Yue Dingtang with a smile on his face.

"What kind of girls are they? Are there any unmarried ones? You and Ling Shu are old classmates, and the elder sister has no other demands on him. She just hopes that he will get married soon. The woman doesn't need to be rich, as long as Good character, clean family background. Ling Shu is not like you. He works in the police station all day long, and his colleagues are all men. The only woman he sees is the suspect. If you let him find it by himself, he will probably have to be a bachelor in his [-]s. !"

Ling Shu couldn't get away, with a helpless expression on his face: "Sister, can you let the guests have a good meal, don't scare them away!"

Yue Dingtang: "It's okay, big sister. There are not many female teachers of the right age in the school, but my third sister knows a lot of people. Let her help you pay attention later."

Ling Yao smiled openly and kept saying yes.

"Dingtang, you are so outstanding, you should have a family already? You will bring your sister-in-law over for dinner sometime. Eldest sister has nothing else, this cooking skill is still very good."

Yue Dingtang smiled: "Not yet, the family members let me go, they are not in a hurry."

Ling Shu hit the nail on the head: "Sister, look, he hasn't married himself, so you asked him to help me find one. Isn't this a blind man lighting a lamp?"

Ling Yao sighed: "You don't have to worry about an excellent child like you. Girls who are willing to pursue you will definitely be able to line up from the Bund to northern Jiangsu. Unlike Ling Shu, no one wants to stand on the street and yell." .”

Ling Shu: ...

The one surnamed Yue seemed to think that the firewood was not burning enough, so he pretended to comfort him: "Maybe Ling Shu dated a girl outside and didn't tell you, eldest sister, don't worry too much, this kind of thing has to go with the flow."

Ling Yao curled her lips: "He? He shouldn't bring me a dancer one day and say he wants to get married. I'll be thankful!"

Ling Shu couldn't help complaining: "Last time you said that as long as I'm willing to get married and bring back a dancing girl, you'll recognize me too."

Ling Yao gave him a hard look.

The topic ended, and after three seconds of silence——

"Dingtang, you stayed abroad for a few years, why have you heard nothing about it?"

"Study in France for three years, and then study in Europe for two years, and went to some countries."

"So you can speak all the foreign languages ​​in Europe?"

Yue Dingtang said modestly: "No, I can speak English and French fluently. I can only speak a few words in other languages ​​like Russian and Spanish. After I came back, I didn't have that language environment, so I almost forgot."

Ling Yao: "It's really amazing. It's worthy of being able to teach in a university. Our family Ling Shu can't do it. Up to now, I can't even speak a few words of foreign language."

Ling Shu: ...

He finally understood that Yue Dingtang was the "always good kid next door", as long as he was around, he was doomed not to have a peaceful meal.

"Sister, you can't say that. After all, we have been speaking Chinese since we were young. If we suddenly go abroad, we will definitely not get used to it. I have seen people who have been there for several years and can't even speak a word of foreign language. When they meet foreigners Still stuttering."

Yue Dingtang was not in a hurry, and he made a timely rescue.

"You're right, but they're also studying abroad, so they must be better than worse. If Ling Shu is half as good as you, I don't have to worry about it all day long."

Ling Yao looked at him the way he saw him, with a pleasant face and a gentle voice, which was in stark contrast to when he was facing his younger brother.

"Ling Shu was outstanding when he was studying, but now everyone has different experiences and directions after graduation. With Ling Shu's ability, he must have a bright future soon."

Yue Dingtang comforted him, seeing Ling Shu, who was a dead pig in prison and not afraid of boiling water, had a look of lovelessness, and he was in a good mood.
