Marry a eunuch to catch demons

Chapter 38 The Female Corpse in the Mirror

Ye Ge didn't realize what he was going to do for a while, until he was dragged by Xie Zhen and walked in front of Aunt Liu, he had a flash of inspiration.

What the servants of the Xie family didn't know didn't mean the masters didn't know about it either, and if Aunt Liu really wanted something from them, she would definitely tell them more.

"Hey, it's the third master and Brother Ye who are here." Sure enough, when Aunt Liu saw Xie Zhen and Ye Ge approaching, a smile appeared on her face, and she hurriedly reached out to her son who was playing next to her: "Chongxiu, come on!" Come over and say hello to your third uncle and Uncle Ye."

The fourth young master of the Xie family, Xie Chongxiu, heard his mother's voice, and ran over obediently with the ball in his arms, but when he came to him, he was a little bit unfamiliar, and stood timidly beside Aunt Liu, and shouted with his red face up: "Hello Third Uncle, Hello Uncle Ye."

Although he grew up in Xie's family, he was still young after all. Xie Chongxiu didn't know all kinds of thoughts of adults. He was innocent and innocent, which made Ye Ge like it a little. Touch Xie Chongxiu's head.

Suddenly, he understood a little bit why Mr. always liked to touch his head.

Xie Zhen didn't have much reaction, he just casually exchanged a few words with Aunt Liu, and then turned to the main topic: "Sister-in-law Liu, I have a few words that I want to talk to you alone, is it convenient?"

Aunt Liu didn't expect Xie Zhen to be so direct, she just thought that he had seen her own thoughts, and the handkerchief in his hand was twisted and twisted, and the smile was on his face again: "It just so happened that I prepared some hot tea in the pavilion ahead. , if the third master and brother Ye don't dislike it, come and sit with me."

Xie Zhen nodded naturally, and after Aunt Liu settled down with Xie Chongxiu, the three of them came to the small pavilion on the rockery together.

Aunt Liu didn't call the little maid, but made tea for Xie Zhen and Ye Ge by herself, and Xie Zhen didn't go around and asked about Aunt Song and Aunt Qian directly.

"Why did the third master ask about them?" When Aunt Liu heard the names of the two, the water in the teapot in her hand almost spilled out, and her face became unnatural. Obviously, this family is very taboo about their affairs.

"Of course there are some things to investigate. If Sister-in-Law Liu knows something, can you tell me?" Xie Zhen was not surprised that Aunt Liu would have such a reaction. After looking at Ye Ge, he continued to ask slowly.

"This... this..." Aunt Liu was still a little worried, but she didn't want to give up this opportunity to talk to Xie Zhen. She bit her red lips lightly with her white teeth, and said after a while: "Since the third master asked about this Two people, you should know that they are no longer alive, right?"

Xie Zhen nodded, and briefly told Aunt Liu the news she got from Xie Feng.

After hearing this, Aunt Liu nodded: "That's roughly the case. What I know is not much more than what Xie Feng said. What does the third master want to ask?"

"I want to ask," Xie Zhen narrowed his slender eyebrows a little, and looked at Aunt Liu with irresistible eyes: "Do you think there is something strange about the deaths of these two?"

Aunt Liu's complexion became even worse. After thinking for a while, she said, "Well, I don't know much about Aunt Qian, but I do know about Aunt Song."

"Back then, I lived with her in the second wife's yard, each occupying a side room. She is not a very good-natured person, she likes to get into the wrong things, and because the second master loves her a bit, she likes to go against the second wife even more. "

"The matter of administering the medicine was just the second wife reprimanding her a few words in front of everyone. She felt that she had lost face, so she was confused for a while..."

"Later, after she hanged herself, the second master asked me to watch it secretly. It's true that she committed suicide like that."

After Xie Zhen heard this, she was silent for a moment, but Ye Ge asked in the notebook: "Did she really take the medicine? Could someone wrong her?"

Aunt Liu shook her head after seeing it: "I'm sure of this, she did it... As for how you know, Brother Ye don't ask."

Speaking of which, Aunt Song's matter is basically clear. If she poisons someone and kills herself after the incident, although there is resentment, it should not be too serious, and the death pattern does not match the female corpse in the mirror. .

Both Xie Zhen and Ye Ge couldn't help but become suspicious of that young master's Aunt Qian.

"According to the third master's question, if the death is strange, it is indeed Aunt Qian who is more likely." Aunt Liu began to recall the events of the year in detail: "Then after Aunt Qian entered the mansion, she was probably worried about her family background. Because of this, Zai Zong doesn’t go out much, and has been living in that pavilion.”

"I really don't have any friendship with her. If I have to talk about it now, there are only two things." Aunt Liu paused, looked at Ye Ge with erratic eyes, and then said: "The first thing is that she came into the mansion. About two or three months ago, once I went to the big wife's yard, I overheard a few young maids discussing in private, saying that Mrs. Qian seemed to be insane."

Ye Ge was shocked, and immediately wrote in the notebook: "Then is she really crazy?"

"I can't say that well," Aunt Liu shook her head, and said after taking a sip of tea, "But after that, when I saw her again, I always felt that her face was so ugly that she seemed to have lost her soul." Yes. Occasionally speaking by her side, she seemed to be frightened and couldn't turn around for a long time."

"Didn't anyone in the mansion ask the doctor to come and show her?" Xie Zhen picked up the cigarette stick, took a puff, and already had a sense of proportion in his mind.

"I've invited you," Aunt Liu nodded, "Back then, the young master was very caring for her, and would invite doctors from outside every now and then, but after looking around, he didn't see anything wrong at all."

But it was precisely because of such frequent visits to doctors that the news of Aunt Qian's madness spread more and more.

"And then, did she die because she went crazy?" Xie Zhen continued to ask.

"Later, another incident happened, which also made people feel incomprehensible," Aunt Liu sighed, seeming to feel sorry for Aunt Qian: "About a few months later, someone suddenly reported that she was pregnant. .”

"This matter is really embarrassing. If Mrs. Song has a child, it will be the first grandchild of our Xie family after returning to the house. It should be a happy event. But...she is just an aunt after all, and the young master has not married yet. The main wife already has a son, which is really unreasonable."

Ye Ge couldn't help wrinkling his nose when he heard this, not because of anything else... He remembered that when Xie Zhen took him to identify people on the night of thirty, he hadn't seen his grandchildren.

"Where is that kid now?"

Aunt Liu shook her head, with a hint of pity in her eyes: "Who knows, we outsiders don't even know if we ever had this child."

Ye Ge was a little confused. How could it be unclear if there are any children?

"At that time, everyone just heard the rumors from the servants, but a few days later, they heard that Qian was not pregnant at all, and she had a hypocrisy and imagined it."

"Is that really the case?" Ye Ge never imagined that such a thing could happen.

"Who knows, it's just a word passed down by servants, and we can't really ask it face to face," Aunt Liu said while looking at Ye Ge's writing, "But not long after this incident, the money He fell ill and died."

Xie Zhen gently exhaled a puff of white smoke with a faint bitter fragrance, and after a while he asked, "Have you seen her death?"

This time, Aunt Liu shook her head: "After all, she is not from the same place. Even if I pity her, there is no chance to see her."

"At that time, the young master was crying and flustered, and he didn't know what to do. Fortunately, the eldest wife was kind and considerate, and helped Qian's affairs in every way. It was not good but neat."

"That's all I know. If the third master wants to hear more about the past, you might as well ask the eldest wife directly. She should know the best."

After hearing this, Xie Zhen didn't say anything else, just held Ye Ge's hand, breathed out a few more puffs of white smoke, and then smiled at Aunt Liu: "I'm bothering my sister-in-law today, and I will ask Cheng Liu to send some thank you gifts someday."

"It's all a family. What did the third master say? It's just trivial things." Aunt Liu added tea for Xie Zhen and Ye Ge. After talking about Xie Zhen, it's her turn... But to say it, or not to say it.

Just as Aunt Liu was hesitating, Xie Zhen stood up with Ye Ge: "Ge'er and I have other things to do, so I won't disturb my sister-in-law for tea."

When Aunt Liu heard this, she couldn't help standing up in a gaffe and asking to stay: "Don't bother, don't bother, it's better for the third master and Brother Ye to stay a little longer."

Xie Zhen glanced at her indifferently, withdrew the half stick in his hand, and said softly, "I won't keep it any longer. I have written down what my sister-in-law told me today. Although I never said what my sister-in-law thought, But I also know."

Aunt Liu was taken aback for a moment, then looked at Xie Zhen nervously: "Then the third master means..."

"Children and grandchildren have their own blessings, let's wait until he is older."

After saying this, Xie Zhen took Ye Ge down the small pavilion on the rockery.

Walking along the way, Ye Ge recalled what Aunt Liu said just now.

"Shall we go to the eldest lady now?" When no outsiders were around, Ye Ge put away the small notebook and only wrote on Xie Zhen's warm palm.

"No," Xie Zhen lowered his eyes and patted the little pigeon's head: "Let's go to that pavilion first."

"Some things, no matter how many people ask, it's better to go and see with your own eyes."

The author has something to say: A little angel told me to do a horror warning, but I always feel that I can’t write horror [laughs and tears]
