Chapter 210, the elder sister-in-law recruits Di

"It is necessary to investigate whether it is related or not. It is best to eliminate a possibility. If it is related, it will be another ironclad evidence of conviction."

Guan Quantong heard that County Magistrate Wei was losing his composure and handed the letter to Chen Yuan.

Chen Yuan took the letter helplessly.

This behavior is tantamount to provocation. The angry county magistrate Wei was angry. "The content of the letter is useful or not, and it still needs a coroner to judge? The magistrate reads the sages into the dog's belly. He actually relies on women to act."

This is too much, but this is a dispute between two adults. Chen Yuan is really not qualified to speak. As soon as she speaks, she will let the magistrate Guan confirm the provocation of Wei County Magistrate.

If you are bullied in front of you, if you don’t refute, you will be beaten up.

The magistrate Guan was not so angry. The Wei County Magistrate spoke indiscriminately today, which means he was panicked!

With a smile, the magistrate Guan spoke casually like a gentleman, "This is a bad word. Chen Yuan is not only a woman, she is also a coroner hired by the county government. She is also a talent who even solved the strange case and presented the strange method and received recognition from the Shangguan of the State Government. What is the relationship between the discussion of the case and her gender?"

“…”

As soon as Shangguan's name was raised, the Wei County Chief, who could not find a reasonable rebuttal, did not dare to vent his evil fire unreasonably. "Hmph, after reading this letter, what did Chen Zhuo find out? Can the case be solved immediately?"

He did not dare to argue with County Magistrate Guan anymore, and the firepower was transferred to Chen Yuan's head.

Chen Yuan smiled bitterly in her heart, County Magistrate Wei was so unreasonable.

She was also a bachelor, and directly handed the letter to the Wei County Chief, "I am humble in my opinion. I see that the letter is just a virtue and talent. Maybe after reading it, I will have great opinions."

County Magistrate Wei suddenly lost his interest, and his moral character and status can be verified. Otherwise, Yu Shouqian would not let people with unknown backgrounds become his own housekeepers.

Seeing that he couldn't make it, Gao was even more dissatisfied with Chen Yuan's courage to rebel against the generals.

"It's all known situations, so I said I wasting the yamen's manpower."

County Magistrate Wei put his hands behind his back and refused to answer the letter. He glanced at him and confirmed that Chen Yuan was not lying. He thought it was meaningless to stay here, so he left the conference hall with a swagger.

As soon as he left, the county magistrate Guan simply drove out other people, leaving only Chen Yuan, Liu Yanchun, Wei County Magistrate and Yu Quan to discuss the case.

Decai was from Jieshiwei, Shanmei, and his father Luo Bi was a local child. When he was young, he studied with his elder brother for several years. After his father died of illness, he was led by his elder brother.

When the elder brother reached the age of marriage, Decai took the initiative to go out to be an apprentice, gave all the house and land to the elder brother, and gave the money he earned to the elder brother to marry.

Because after studying, he learns everything quickly and is diligent and honest, he gradually falls into the eyes of his boss and is framed by the shopkeeper.

Yu Shouqian, who went out to collect seafood, had dealt with Decai. He knew people with keen eyes and was grateful for his character. He spent money to save Decai and took him back to Yu's house to serve as a job.

These are all well-known information in the Yu Mansion.

There are still some details in the letter that the servants don’t know.

Yu Shouqian failed to clean up Decai's crime of stealing the money in the account and was taken out of prison after spending the money to settle it. Therefore, Decai was quite suspicious of leaving Jieshiwei in shame and did not dare to speak out with great fanfare.

The second year after Decai entered Yu's mansion, the Jieshiwei was attacked by Japanese pirates while everyone was in a vacant defense during the Spring Festival. Umeta Village and other villages were seriously injured. The man organized a resistance to protect the elderly, women and children in the village and hiding.

Decai's elder brother died in Umeda Village's anti-Japanese war.

After the Japanese pirates were defeated, Umeda Village had already burned all over and could not live.

If there are men in the family, they can still rebuild their homes, while the rest can only go to their relatives or sell themselves as slaves. No one is in the mood to celebrate the Spring Festival.

The villagers saw Decai's eldest sister-in-law Zhaodi carrying the child on her back, and asked if she wanted to go back to her parents' home, but she said she wanted to surrender to her brother-in-law.

The villagers knew Decai, but they hadn't seen him for a long time, so they asked Zhaodi if they knew where Decai was.

The eldest sister-in-law Zhaodi returned. After Decai settled down last year, he wrote a letter to his family. He heard his husband talk about where his brother-in-law was on duty. However, at that time, the husband was angry that his younger brother was not clean and stole the owner's money and was unwilling to deal with him again. He wrote back and scolded him. The two brothers were angry and broke off contact.

But Zhaodi wanted to try it. After all, the uncle said in the letter that the master's family would not make things difficult for his servants, and she was going to surrender. The brother-in-law should have arranged an errand for her nephew's sake so that she could raise the child.

After hearing what she said, the villagers did not try to keep them. After all, everyone is unable to protect themselves across the river. Ask a little more, they have already fulfilled their friendship with the same village.

The letter also said that when Zhaodi left, Ruan Cui from the same village also left with her.

Ruan Cui was the elder brother who made a marriage for Decai. However, before getting married, Decai got into a lawsuit and went to prison. The next year, when the Japanese pirates burned the village, her father and brother also died in the fight against the Japanese.

Following Zhaodi to leave was her best choice and the only choice.

"According to the letter, Decai's eldest sister-in-law and fiancée both came to him, but after several days of investigation, he had no relatives and no reason in Weiyu County." Chen Yuan couldn't help but worry about the fate of the two women and a child.

Yu Quan analyzed, "Jieshiwei is four hundred miles away from Weiyu County. The yamen runners' office had to run fast horses for two days. The two weak women were careless and had to take their children. It was time to arrive in Weiyu County after ten or half a month of walking, but they didn't see each other after leaving for seventeen years. I'm afraid... they are in danger."

"It seems that this letter is of no use."

Magistrate Guan suddenly became discouraged and said, "Let's go away."

"yes."

The group left the meeting hall and went to work on their own.

Liu Yanchun followed Chen Yuan, and when she saw her frowning, she fell into deep thought, and asked, "What are you thinking about in senior sister?"

Chen Yuan didn't dare to talk about anything without evidence in front of the adults.

In front of Liu Yanchun, she did not avoid brainstorming. "There is no hatred for no reason, nor love for no reason. Whether virtue is to hide it for the murderer, or he is the murderer, he must make his hatred for Yu Shouqian exceed his gratitude to Yu Shouqian."

After investigation, Decai did not buy his own land and home business outside the Yufu.

Such a greedy and loyal butler cannot bribe his master.

"What senior sister means is, maybe we can think about Decai's sister-in-law and fiancée?"

"Yes."

Liu Yanchun looked at Chen Yuan unexpectedly and asked, "Sister-in-law Zhaodi and his fiancée Ruan Cui have both lost news for seventeen years. If their disappearance has something to do with Yu Shouqian, why did Decai take revenge now? If someone who has hatred towards the Sheng Mansion kidnapped Zhaodi and Ruan Cui, why did he threaten De to kill Yu Shouqian now?"

"Seventeen years..."

The questions raised by Liu Yanchun are very reasonable. Chen Yuan chewed them repeatedly for seventeen years. "Seventeen years ago, Qingming Festival, died in a fire in the mid-winter month. Seventeen years ago, two women left their hometown to defect to Decai... Seventeen years later, with Decai present, Yu Shouqian fell into the water and died without drinking or being poisoned."
