"By the way, does Mr. Zheng have an equal wife?"
asked Leng Rui suddenly.
"Probably not! If there are flat wives, the master of their family will take concubines, so it is impossible for them not to appear."
Xu Lingzi stroked his white beard, and said somewhat uncertainly.
The four of them have already returned to the previous courtyard. After all, they are distinguished guests. If such a thing happens, the guests will naturally avoid it, so they can investigate this matter.
"Don't go, wait a minute, I have something to ask you, does your master Zheng have any other wives?"
Xiao Ran looked in the courtyard, a young servant was busy changing red to white, Xiao Ran immediately stopped the other party's way and asked.
"Ah? Our master used to have a flat wife, and married two flat wives, but one flat wife was immersed in a pig cage because she had an affair with a servant, and she couldn't bear the torture and committed suicide. The other flat wife committed suicide because of Sick and die."
The young servant looked at Xiao Ran in surprise, he didn't seem to expect that Xiao Ran would ask this question, but he still answered honestly.
After hearing this, no matter who you are, you will feel that the deaths of the two ordinary wives are very strange. Perhaps someone deliberately killed them. In the entire mansion, the only person who has the ability and motivation is the regular wife. Maybe that wife is jealous and possessive, but she can't fight against this system by herself, so she can only use this method.
Of course, these are just speculations, and the specifics need to be supported by evidence.
"What's the background of that wife?"
Xiao Ran asked again.
"I heard that the eldest grandma's family is very rich, but they have never had a male. Mr. Zheng can be regarded as a door-to-door son-in-law! At first, Mr. Zheng's status was very low, and many people looked down on him, but fortunately, Mr. Zheng's ability is outstanding, and slowly He showed his talent in business, and helped the Zheng family through some crises several times. Only then did Mr. Zheng's status in the Zheng family improve. Later, everyone in Grandma's family grew old one after another, and Mr. Zheng also took over the Zheng family. .”
The servant said respectfully.
"All these things are known to anyone who asks them casually. It's not a secret, but if you ask me about other people, maybe I don't know."
After the servant finished speaking, he continued to busy himself with the work at hand.
It has to be said that the other party did bring some useful information to Xiao Ran and the others, otherwise, they would not know the relationship between them, and it would be difficult to find out who killed the official wife of Mr. Zheng.
"Let's walk around!"
Xiao Ran looked around and suggested.
He was really curious. This house is so big, but the room behind the paper shop is far from that big. I really don't know how the other party did it. It looks like you are in a big mansion.
The four of them walked around casually, and met Mr. Zheng along the way. They seemed to have a good relationship with Mr. Zheng, and Mr. Zheng expressed his apology to them.
Soon they wandered around to the back kitchen, and it happened that a maid came out with a teacup, Xiao Ran stopped the other party's way and asked: "Where is the person who brought the teacup to the bride before? She is now Where?"
"She...she has been executed by the master."
The maid looked terrified, and spoke the truth in a trembling voice.
"Executed?"
Xiaohui repeated in shock.
At the same time, he turned his head and glanced at Leng Rui and them. When he saw the other people's expressions were extremely calm, he knew what they were thinking. This was still a stage of transition from a feudal society to a socialist society. For these wealthy families, Punishing one or two servants is not a big deal at all.
For those people, servants and so on are nothing but ants, if you kill them, you will kill them.
Just like in ancient times, if you are a servant, it is very likely that your ancestors have been like this for generations, and it is impossible to get out of that pit.
After seeing Xiao Ran wave his hand, the maid left.
"It's just a maid. She probably doesn't have the guts to poison her main wife. Maybe there is someone behind her, but it's a pity that she's dead. It looks like someone murdered her."
Xu Lingzi said.
"It is obvious that the murderers are mostly their masters. Since Mr. Zheng of this family is the son-in-law, there are not many relatives of the master's family. As long as we do a little investigation, we can find out about them. There are all those important people in this family."
Xiao Ran smiled and said calmly.
After a while, they learned from a servant that there are not many masters in this family, only Mr. Zheng, the first wife, two sons, and the concubine. people.
After inquiring a lot of news, Xiao Ran and the others came to the courtyard where the bride was.
Speaking of which, the bride was really aggrieved, so she just entered the door, and nothing happened!He was almost thrown into limbo.
After Xiao Ran and the others came to the courtyard, they saw that the bride had already put on a filial dress. On the wedding day, she was full of joy, but it turned into a funeral. Even if it was her wedding today, she had to change into a filial dress. The other party sat in a daze in the pavilion in the courtyard, as if he had lost his spirit.
Seemingly noticing someone coming, she said expectantly, "Did the master ask you to take me out of this yard?"
"Sorry, although we seem to say yes, we can't deceive you. We came here by ourselves. I know that the death of the eldest lady should not have much to do with you, but I have a question to ask you. Did you Do you know Eldest Young Master?"
Xiao Ran looked at the woman and asked.
He clearly saw the panic in the other party's eyes, and it's not difficult to guess that the other party may have had an affair with his son before he met Mr. Zheng, but he didn't know why, but Mr. Zheng took a fancy to it. Yes, and I'm going to accept her as a concubine.
"It seems that you know each other, maybe you already know who killed the eldest lady, am I right?"
Xiao Ran glanced at the woman and said.
He saw the woman trembling again.
"Let's go! The matter is almost clear, and it's time to know what gift the descendant of the Zheng family left for us."
When the matter came to this point, Xiao Ran already knew that the murderer was between Mr. Zheng and his son, and he also understood that only when the truth was found out, what the descendants of the Zheng family left for them would appear.
After leaving here, they found Mr. Zheng and asked Mr. Zheng to gather everyone together.
