Mind reading, taking the rental house through the whole village crying

Chapter 676: Wrong Time of Death

If that’s the case, why would the Zhou family lie?

This means that she had eaten something poisonous, and not his shredded pork noodles or drank the soup.

However, in order to extort money, he lied about the old woman's time of death.

After this, Kong Yuanbao understood instantly.

As businessmen, there are few stupid ones.

I didn't figure it out just now because I was too anxious.

Now that he has the Meng family father and son and his goddaughter to support him, why should he be afraid?

My mood immediately calmed down and my mind became much clearer.

"No, Shopkeeper Kong, can't I just take the loss? If not, fifty taels is fine. I'll take my wife away immediately and tell everyone that she didn't die from eating the Kong family's noodle soup. How about that? I'll clear your name."

Zhou Kui's eyes were twitching and he felt very uneasy.

He knew better than anyone how his wife died.

If the officials really find out.

Then it's all over.

Even if they can't find out the truth, it won't be good for them to continue making a fuss.

I really regret it.

He also didn't expect that a merchant who ran a food shop would be so familiar with the officials.

Isn't it said that officials hate merchants the most? They disdain to associate with lowly merchants.

Are they all fake?

If he had known this, he wouldn't have come.

Now that’s bad, maybe even all my family members will be implicated.

Still can't get any good results.

Zhou Kui leaned close to Kong Yuanbao's ear and whispered.

There was still a hint of pleading in his eyes, but Kong Yuanbao saw through his thoughts and ignored him.

He just snorted coldly and continued, "Hmph, no need. When the officials come back, the truth will be revealed. I, the Kong Family Restaurant, only want a clear name. Otherwise, how can I continue to run the restaurant in the future?"

These words are sonorous and powerful.

Jiang Fubao took the lead in applauding.

If one person clapped, everyone else would applaud as well, even though they didn't know why they were clapping.

"Godfather said it well. The purpose of living in this world is to be an upright person. If you don't check whether the food is poisonous, who will come to eat here in the future? Old man, I don't know what you want to do.

One moment you want five hundred taels of compensation, the next moment you reduce it to one hundred taels, and now you're whispering something in my godfather's ear. I'm afraid the amount has been reduced again? What are you so anxious about? Are you panicking because you're afraid the officials will find out something?"

Jiang Fubao raised the corner of his mouth and sneered.

She was right.

There must be some hidden story behind the old woman's death, and coupled with what her grandmother had just said to her, her eyes became even more fierce as she looked towards the Zhou family.

These people were the ones who came to Jiangjia Village to cause trouble.

It’s from Zhoujia Village.

I heard that they had committed many evil things and were notoriously bad in several nearby villages.

If the police got evidence, Jiang Fubao was prepared to punish his brother severely.

This cancer should be eradicated one by one.

It was very cold, with a chill wind blowing from time to time, but Zhou Kui's face was covered in cold sweat.

His hands were shaking terribly.

After all, he is a farmer. No matter how smart he is, he cannot defeat Jiang Fubao, who has lived two lifetimes.

At this moment, he regretted extremely why he had caused such a scene.

Not only will you not get the money, you may also lose it yourself.

There are more and more people around.

It seemed as if the whole town had come.

Someone shouted that the prefect and the county magistrate were judging the case in the street, and people who were celebrating the New Year at home ran out one after another.

Just to see the fun.

The alley was extremely crowded.

The Zhou family, the Jiang family, the Kong family, and Meng Bujiu were all squeezed in the middle.

The people on both sides just stood there quietly.

No one spoke.

"I want to drink chicken soup. I'm so cold, Mom. I want to go home." Zhou Ruixiang was tired of standing and started to make a fuss.

His family, who seemed to love and pamper him, actually ignored him.

"Grandma, why are you lying down? Get up and heat up some chicken soup for me. Didn't you say you were going to make chicken soup for me? Why are you sleeping? You are not allowed to sleep."

Zhou Ruixiang pouted, came to the coffin, took Old Wang's hand, and began to act coquettishly.

But the person is dead, how can he speak?

Zhou Ruixiang cried.

Ye quickly slapped his hand away.

"Son, your grandma has passed away. Stop making trouble, okay? When we get home, I'll make you some chicken soup. Be good. Ruixiang is the best."

Just as she was coaxing her son.

The officer finally came back.

The crowd moved out of the way.

The already crowded alley became even more crowded, and the horses couldn't get in at all.

The officers had no choice but to dismount and enter sideways through the small path made clear by the people.

"Did you find out anything?" Meng Bujiu asked.

"To answer your question, there is a woman in Zhou's house who was tied up in the room. When she saw us coming, she cried and asked us to save her. We brought her here. In addition, I found a piece of loose soil in the backyard of Zhou's house. When I dug it up, I found a boiled chicken and some mushrooms.

The soup was sucked dry by the ground. I brought the chicken and mushrooms in a basin and asked the doctor to take a look. There was a pile of ashes in the stove in Zhou's kitchen, as if a lot of firewood was burned. There was not much firewood in the backyard, and the kitchen was full of smoke. There were marks of coffins on the ground..."

After the officer finished speaking, he waved his hand, and three more officers squeezed in from behind, bringing with them a woman and a wooden basin.

The appearance of this woman shocked Jiang Fubao greatly.

Isn’t this Jiang Kang’s biological mother, Sun Xiaotao?

The Zhou family came to make a fuss earlier, saying that Sun Xiaotao had run away, so how come she was caught again?

And it’s turned out like this.

He looks neither like a human nor a ghost. His legs are lame and bent strangely. It must be that he was beaten violently and his bones were broken.

The exposed wrists were all bruised.

The clothes she wore were very thin, exposing her chest skin. It would be cold to wear them even in late autumn, let alone a snowy day.

Although Jiang Fubao didn't like Sun Xiaotao, he still felt an indescribable feeling in his heart when he saw how miserable she was.

The Zhou family is really despicable. They don’t even treat people as human beings.

Even animals cannot be treated like this.

"Get her some clothes." Jiang Fubao said to the waiter of the Kong family who lived in the backyard of the restaurant, and then began to check the vegetables in the wooden basin.

First he smelled the chicken, looked at the meat, and then checked the mushrooms one by one.

It wasn't until she pinched a pure white mushroom that she smiled.

“This kind of mushroom is called snow mushroom. It only grows on snowy days and can break through the soil in about two hours. It is pure white and looks non-toxic, but it is actually more poisonous than red mushroom. If you use just one mushroom to make chicken soup, you will be poisoned to death if you drink a sip of the soup.

This poison is comparable to the red-crowned crane, it directly seals the throat, and after death, the nails and lips will turn dark purple, and there is another characteristic, that is, the chest will show purple patterns. "

Jiang Fubao's words made Kong Yuanbao feel relieved.

The heart that was lifted up was also put back.

After all this time, it turned out that the man was poisoned by mushrooms and they wanted to put the blame on him.

absurd!

Jiang Fubao was afraid that the Zhou family would continue to be stubborn, so he directly stripped off Old Wang's clothes, exposing the skin above her chest. People who were nearby all stretched their heads to look.

"Oh, there really is a pattern, it's purple, and it's almost spreading to the neck."
