Mr. Mei San led Yuning all the way forward. "The snow is getting bigger and bigger."

"That's not it." Yu Ning stopped in his tracks, stretched out his hand to catch the snow falling from the sky, the cold little thing fell into his palm, and soon melted into a little crystal drop of water.The snowflakes rustled, and a thick layer of white snow accumulated on the flowers and trees, and all of them were bent down.Yu Ning looked at the silver and white stain, shook the water beads on his hand, and smiled with Mr. Mei San: "Today is not a coincidence, I'm afraid I can't see anything."

"It doesn't matter." Mr. Mei San also stopped in his tracks, "That's not the only reason why I called you here."

"Yes yes yes, just to covet me for a meeting gift, right?" Yu Ning sighed exaggeratedly, and said to Mei Xiyun with a side profile: "It's done, let's do it, there are any juniors in the mansion, take them with you Come up... Don't worry, your little uncle has brought enough gifts for the meeting, so I can't lose you."

"Ah Yun hasn't married a wife yet, how could he be a junior!"

Yu Ning pushed his sleeves: "Then it seems that I can't give this bag out today."

Mei Xiyun, as a junior in a standard feudal society, naturally wouldn't take pleasure in interrupting the elders' bickering like Yu Ning, he held back a smile and stepped forward, respectfully said: "Father, little uncle, the tea in the room is ready Well, it's cold outside, let's go in quickly."

Mr. Mei San nodded and looked at Yuning. When his eyes were wrong, he saw Yuning quietly grabbing the snow on the leaves beside him and playing with it in his hands. He couldn't help but lightly reprimanded: "Throw away the snow! Junior brother, you are seriously injured Chuyu, why is he playing with snow again——Furong, you have to watch your young master, don't let him touch these things."

Yu Ning has a skill, that is, he can make himself look less awkward anytime and anywhere.I saw him throwing the snow into the pond casually, the ball of snow was squeezed into a ball by him, and when it fell into the pond, there was a plop, which shocked the colorful koi inside to scatter in a panic, but he was still calm She took the handkerchief from Fu Rong's hand and wiped her hands. She also smiled very politely. If Mei Xiyun hadn't seen this little uncle throwing snowballs at fish, he would have thought that this little uncle had just dropped the snowball. Under the wolf hair, there is still a pair of lifelike paintings on the table.

"Okay, okay, it's just a ball of snow... I'm not a woman, so I can't be cold." Yu Ning handed back the handkerchief that she wiped her hands to Fu Rong, and said with a smile: "Brother, don't worry about it." , finally asked me to release, but you still hold me."

Mr. Mei San was speechless for a moment, and after a pause, he said helplessly: "You should at least act like an elder in front of juniors!"

"It's not an outsider, so why care so much." Yu Ning said indifferently.

Speaking of elders and juniors, Mr. Mei San's son, Mei Xiyun, is seventeen years old, and the age difference between him and Yu Ning is not even ten years old, so Yuning naturally can't put on airs.The few people walked along the corridor for a short distance, and finally arrived at the main hall. To be honest, Yu Ning couldn't bear to sit in the main hall and greet them. It was really good, went in and had a sip of tea to warm up. Seeing that the father and son had something to say, they greeted each other and took Fu Rong and the two guards to the backyard for a stroll.

Half a month later is Mei Xiyun's big wedding. Part of the bride's dowry has already arrived. The main room is all newly made furniture, and some dowry gifts have also been put into the warehouse. There is also an old nun sent by the bride's family. Stand guard outside the room.Seeing Yuning bringing a few maids, knowing that there are distinguished guests coming to the door today, he knelt down to Yu Ning, Yu Ning asked to go in and have a look, but the other party didn't stop him, and went in together.

Yu Ning turned around the room, pointed out two not-so-good decorations, let Fu Rong remember them, and was about to enter the dormitory to have a look, but was stopped by the old mother: "Although I don't know who you are in this house Relatives, but this will be the dormitory of my uncle and my young lady from now on...it's not convenient for you to go in."

It's okay for Yu Ning to listen to it, maybe he was influenced by Gu Guoshi, he never looked at the small Fengshui of these home decorations, and usually started from the general direction, and the layout of these dormitories, this age is no different from the modern world, the layout is always It's not bad, and it's not that there are no old people in the house, and generally they can't touch any fatal taboos.He was about to turn around and leave when suddenly a strange green light flashed from the corner of his eyes. He paused, thinking that he had made a mistake. When he looked again, he found that the aura in the bedroom seemed to be different. Looks so good.

Since there was such a thing, it was difficult for him to leave. He found a place in the main room where he could breathe, and ordered Fu Rong to call Mr. Mei San and Mei Xiyun, and Fu Rong responded in a low voice. , two guards were outside the house, but she didn't dare to leave Yuning here alone.Fu Rong took out a small whistle from her bosom, and blew it lowly. Yu Ning thought the sound would be loud, but the whistle only made a very weak buzzing sound. If it wasn't for Yu Ning's keen hearing, it might have The buzzing was completely inaudible.Soon a guard arrived where Yuning could see with naked eyes, Fu Rong beckoned him to come in, gave a few orders, the guard left in response, and soon invited Mr. Mei San and the others.

Seeing the arrival of the master's house, the old lady of the bride's family hastened to courteously and said: "I have seen Mr. Mei San, I have seen my uncle."

Mr. Mei San waved his hand, knowing that if Yu Ning hadn't discovered something, he would never have invited him here, so he quickly asked: "Little Junior Brother, did you see something wrong?"

Yu Ning sat on the chair and held the stove, said: "Ask someone to open the door."

"Go, open the bedroom door." Mr. Mei San ordered.

The maidservants on both sides stepped forward, but the old nanny hurriedly stopped her: "Mr. Mei San, this... this..."

"Get out of the way." Mr. Mei San didn't like to talk nonsense with people, as soon as he raised his hand, two guards came over and pressed him to the side, gagged and knelt down. Only then did Yu Ning get up Shi Shiran, and said: "Brother, please... Ah Yun also come in together, after all, it's your wife's dowry, so you can know what happened later, don't follow others."

"Tell her to follow along, so as not to say that we have no evidence." Mr. Mei San glanced at the old nanny, and the guards let him go, and the old nanny said bitterly: "Mr. Mei San actually Letting so many outsiders into the new house is simply not paying attention to our Zhou family!"

Yu Ning glanced at him lightly, and said: "Loyalty is commendable, but there are too many words. If that's the case, let's all go in."

After finishing speaking, the guards on both sides stepped forward and restrained the servant, and entered the dormitory together.Yu Ning glanced around, pointed at the Babu bed and said: "Fu Rong, go and take down the beam on the right side of the Babu bed, put a piece of cloth between it, don't touch it with your hands."

"Yes." Fu Rong went away in response.She walked to the side of Ba Bu's bed, looked up, and Yu Ning said: "Yes, it's the one on top of your head."

Furong raised her hand, only to hear the sound of brocade cracking, and in a blink of an eye, she tore down the curtain embroidered with hundreds of sons and grandchildren on the bed. It was easily torn off through the curtain.

The beam was about half a foot long, and Fu Rong was about to bring this beam to Yu Ning to show him, when she suddenly raised her eyebrows, she held the beam in one hand and slammed it towards the corner of the wall, only to see a green shadow being savagely thrown from it. It was thrown to the wall, followed by a dart, which firmly nailed the green shadow to the ground.At this moment, everyone could see clearly that the green shadow was a strangely green snake, almost as long as the beam. At this moment, it suddenly saw the light, became fierce, and slowly bowed its body into an S shape with its tongue out, but Because the tail was nailed to the ground by the dart, he couldn't move.

"Zhuyeqing." Yu Ning took a look and said, "Kill it, it's not good to bite people for a while."

The guards on the side quickly went up and beat the snake to death with two knives. In order to prevent the snake from dying but not stiff, they also used the scabbard to press the snake's body so that it would not jump up and bite the owner.

"How can there be green bamboo leaves on this Babu bed?!" Mr. Mei San exclaimed. After Mei Xiyun was shocked, she quickly walked to Furong's side to see the beam, but Furong avoided it when she reached out to take it. , Fu Rong said: "Master Yun, please be careful, there is something weird on the beam."

"What's weird?" Yu Ning stepped forward, and he pulled a piece of the curtain before touching it. Fu Rong held one end, not daring to let a weak chicken like Yuning hold this beam - although it is only half a foot long, it is also Pressing hard, Yu Ning flipped through the veil and asked, "Is it hollow inside?"

He stared again, the beam had lost the green bamboo leaves, most of the strange aura had disappeared, but there was still some faint aura, presumably the wood was also weird.

"Exactly." Fu Rong said, "Your maidservant noticed it just after she started using it. Babu beds are always firm, and my maidservant can't break them off with one hand. Only the hollow ones can be easily broken by my maidservant."

Yu Ning threw away the tent cloth in his hand with a little disgust: "The whole bed is hollow? Could there be snakes in it?...Brother, are you getting married or are you getting married? You can't wait until you get married. Ah Yun to die?"

When Mr. Mei San heard that the entire bed was hollow, his face was already livid: "Come here, smash all the household items in the main house for me! Let's see if there is anything bright!... Junior brother, let's go out first." , I don’t know what kind of monsters were made by the Zhou family here, and even such low tricks as releasing poisonous snakes can be used, it is really chilling... If I hurt you, how can I explain to the master. "

Yu Ning waved his hand: "Brother said, let's go out first, let's talk about it in the main hall... As for you." He looked at the old mother, who was pale and sweaty, "You stop us like this , I think I should know about it—how long have these betrothal gifts been sent?"

Mei Xiyun's expression was really not good, but more resentment: "It's been more than a month."

"Oh, the snake is in the bed. Even if it's winter, it's impossible for it to be alive and kicking without eating or drinking for a month. I think this old slave has some credit. Take it down and ask... Furong, Throw that piece of wood away, what are you holding it in your hand for?"

Yuning said that he wanted to throw it away, but Fu Rong didn't dare to seriously throw it away, and carefully handed over the wood to Mr. Mei San's servants, and then returned to Yuning's side.

The rest of the matter is somewhat private - the secret matter of murdering her husband and son-in-law naturally has an inside story. He didn't believe that the Zhou family would suddenly kill people when they became crazy.Mr. Mei San is not stupid, can't he tell if he has a grudge against his own family? How could he find a grudge against his son?It can be seen from this that the inside story probably came from the Zhou family.

A few people arrived at the main hall, Yu Ning didn't want to chat with them, he was embarrassed to hear such privacy, so he wanted to leave and go home, but Mr. Mei San pulled him to sit down, frowning Said: "Brother, you just said that you are not an outsider. Why did you go? How did you find out that there were snakes in the house?... Those in my house are all trash. There is no such a big poisonous snake hidden in the bed. People found out!"

None of the group suspected that the Zhou family didn't know how important the bride's dowry was?Not to mention the Babu bed waiting to be sent to her husband's house in the new house.Generally, for a slightly well-to-do family, the daughter will start looking for talented people and make a dowry three years before the daughter is married. For some wealthy families, they will start preparing the dowry as soon as the daughter is born.Then there are those who are more disciplined and have a family background, from the coffin and shroud after the daughter dies, down to the drink, food, stitches and threads after the daughter arrives at the husband's house, all of which are not prepared by the husband's house, so they get married in this way. Only the daughter of a daughter can have confidence in her husband's family. If the daughter has no biological heirs, the mother's family even has the right to ask for the dowry back after the daughter dies.

The fact that the Zhou family can be classmates with Mr. Mei San is also well-established.Which of the pretense they come out of is not carefully selected and checked one by one?It took three or four embroiderers a year and a half to embroider the tents of hundreds of sons and grandchildren on the Babu bed, let alone the Babu bed?Hollow and solid, the weight gap is too big.It's just that the Zhou family really made a mistake and didn't know about it. Didn't they have any idea when moving the dowry?

When Yu Ning heard the words, he sat down on his ass: "You can't blame the servants, who can guard against you if you have a mind and don't care? But senior brother, the Zhou family really has no enmity with you? You must know that red snakes are auspicious, and green snakes are auspicious." It’s fierce. Not to mention Fengshui or Fengshui, since you can feed snakes, it means that there is an exit, and if the snake crawls out and bites Ah Yun silently at night, you should be completely cold when you find Ah Yun.”

"Besides, if the Zhou family behaves like this, why don't they care about their daughter at all?"

"The old man of the Zhou family and I have been friends for more than ten years. It is a classmate friendship! I really can't figure out why his Zhou family would harm Ayun so much!" Mr. Mei San calmed down after his anger, but his face was a little bit pale. obscure.He and Mr. Zhou are really classmates for more than ten years, they have always been close, it is definitely not a friendship on the face of it.The two of them can be said to be a good family, otherwise they would not have arranged this marriage: "...there must be an inside story, but I just don't know what kind of inside story it is, and the Zhou family should ignore the friendship of more than ten years." , lay this murderous hand."

"Fortunately, I had an idea and called you here, otherwise Ah Yun would have died unjustly?" The more Mr. Mei San thought about it, the more angry he became, and he swept all the teacups on the table to the ground, only Yu Ning survived.Looking at it, Yuning felt that this was really Mr. Mei's personal disciple, and the posture of smashing things was exactly the same.Mei Xiyun at the side hurriedly fetched a few more teacups, poured another cup of hot tea for Mr. Mei San and himself, and persuaded: "Father, don't be too angry, it will hurt your health."

Yu Ning's heart moved, and he asked: "Ayun, have you met Miss Zhou? Do you like her?"

Speaking of which, the bride's family planned to kill the groom, but the most angry one was the groom's father instead of the groom!With Mei Xiyun like this, it was really not sad, all he could see was anger and a bit of indifference.Mei Xiyun lowered her eyes, avoided answering, stood up, knelt down and kowtowed three times to Yu Ning: "This time, my nephew's life is all due to my young master's insightful eyes. Take my bow."

"I've talked about my own family, I'm impatient with these etiquettes, get up." Yu Ning held his chin, thought for a while and said: "Now that something like this has happened, what is the brother going to do... we will go back to the Guoshifu to ask the master, the master call the shots?"

Mr. Mei San was silent for a moment: "This kind of scandal, how could it stain the eyes of the master and Mr. Gu, I just deal with it myself."

"Is there anything dirty, brother, do you think you can really hide such a big matter?" Yu Ning said pointingly, while pointing outside, Mr. Mei San also knew that Mr. Mei was surrounded by Yuning With Gu Guoshi's eyes and ears, this matter can be private if it is said to be private, and it can be made public if it is said to be public. It's just that Yu Ning bumped into it, so naturally I can't hide it from the elders Mei and Gu. .It just so happened that Furong reported outside: "Third Mister, Young Master, Young Master Yun, Mr. Mei has ordered you to go to the National Teacher's Mansion immediately."

"Look, isn't it here?" Yu Ning clapped her hands: "Okay, let's go..."

"Ah Yun, my hand stove is not hot anymore, go and get a new one for me and your father." Yu Ning deliberately instructed Mei Xiyun to go out first, and Mei Xiyun naturally followed suit.When he went out, Yuning pulled Mr. Mei San, who had a somewhat gloomy face, and said in a low voice: "No matter how old you are, you are still the master's apprentice. Master, it's not like you don't know that the knife mouth and bean curd heart are really at a critical juncture, what? Time to stand by and watch?"

"No matter what the inside story of the Zhou family is, it's not a reason to harm Ayun." Yu Ning analyzed: "Besides, brother, you are a shopkeeper of ancient artifacts, what's the harm? It's not unreasonable for master and master to be nervous. Shigong's title of 'demon master' is not very nice."

The implication is, could it be that the Zhou family has fallen into someone's hands, and this time the spearhead is actually aimed at Gu Guoshi?But maybe it's complicated again. If Gu Guoshi was targeted and killed the youngest son of his third disciple with whom he made a pact, it would be a bit of a detour.But things above the court have always been unpredictable, everything is possible, Yu Ning is not clear.His idea is very simple - the sky is falling and there is a tall man holding it up, since Mr. Mei and Gu Guoshi have spoken, then go back and obey orders.

***

There was a murderous atmosphere in the National Teacher's Mansion.

Mr. Mei and Gu Guoshi were more straightforward than Yu Ning imagined. When the three of them arrived, the head of the Zhou family, Miss Zhou, who was married to Mei Xiyun, and Mrs. Zhou, the housekeeper, all knelt on the ground without running away. down the hall.

Gu Guoshi sat on the top wearing a red blouse embroidered with peonies, with an indescribably bleak air all over his body. Mr. Mei sat on the other side, both of them were drinking tea with indifferent eyes, and saw When Mr. Mei San and the three of them came in, Gu Guoshi showed a smile: "It's pretty quick, sit down—what's wrong with your Zhou family, you might as well say it now, so as not to say no later Come out, it’s time to blame me for being cruel.”

The implication was that it meant to kill someone.

Yu Ning was speechless inwardly, but Mr. Mei San couldn't help but stood up and shouted: "Zhou Yuming, how can I feel sorry for you?"

"Sit down." Mr. Mei's brows were frosty: "Screaming in class, your rules are eating by dogs?"

Mr. Mei San swallowed his breath, cupped his hands and said, "Yes, master."

Mr. Zhou knelt down in the hall, and said inexplicably: "National teacher Rong, this... what happened, Zhou is really puzzled!" He looked at Mr. Mei San: "Zhou and Mei The three letters and six ceremonies of Mr. San’s family are only the last one. Although we haven’t formally welcomed the relatives, our two families can be regarded as serious in-laws. I really don’t know how I offended you!”

Judging by Elder Zhou's appearance, he is indeed ignorant.Fortunately, Yu Ning was smart, and before leaving, he told him to send the snake's body and the Babu bed that had been dismantled into pieces, which happened to be useful at this time.Yuning clapped his hands, and the snake corpse and a few boards were brought up and placed beside Master Zhou.

"The Babu bed is hollow, and there are poisonous snakes in it." Yu Ning made a gesture: "Master Zhou, why not take a look for yourself, what kind of dowry did your family send to my third senior brother's house?"

Mr. Zhou didn't care about other things, the snake corpse was cut into two pieces, he only took one look to feel his heart shudder, he knew that it was highly poisonous, he picked up a beam and looked at it, just a look When he got it in his hand, his heart felt cold. He turned his head and threw the beam on Mrs. Zhou who was kneeling behind him, and cursed: "Mr. Liu, what a good thing you did?!"

Mrs. Zhou was hit by a heavy beam, and her bun was broken. She picked it up and looked at it, but she didn't care about the messy temples. She was shocked and said: "How could this happen! This... this How could it be hollow!" She paused, and threw herself on Master Zhou: "Master Mingjian! Although Ah Zhu is not my own, I regard her as my own! She has been raised by my side since she was a child. The big one! How could I harm her! I asked the craftsman to choose the best huanghuali, and the dowry was done, and you have seen it, how could there be such a problem!"

Both of them knew the seriousness, and they couldn't blame Gu Guoshi University for kidnapping them and their daughter to the Guoshi Mansion early in the morning without any reason. Who can not be angry when encountering such a situation?If the dowry was wrong, it's okay to say, but the snake made them hard to argue!

Mr. Mei said coldly: "Stop crying, I don't care about other things, Cheng Zhi is my disciple, A Yun is my grandson, whoever wants to kill him, I will seek justice."

"Extremely." Gu Guoshi said softly: "So that you two know, our Mei family is not unreasonable. Since you don't know, what about Miss Zhou? Miss Zhou doesn't know either?"

Miss Zhou has been lowering her head since just now, her whole body trembled when she heard the words, she didn't even have the courage to look directly at Gu Guoshi: "I...I don't know...The dowry has always been decided by my mother."

Gu Guoshi nodded, and asked again: "Third brother, what do you say?"

It was only then that Mr. Mei San dared to answer. He stood up and pondered for a moment, before he said: "Although I am stupid, I still believe in my own eyes... I have known Brother Zhou for more than ten years, and I believe in Brother Zhou's character. My lord, check it carefully to avoid being wronged."

"What do you say, Ah Yu?" Gu Guoshi nodded dispensably and asked again.

Yu Ning thought for a while, and felt that what he said really did not look like a fake - Gu Guoshi did not cover up the fact that Gu Guoshi and Mr. Mei formed a contract, at most he would not take the initiative to publicize it, and anyone who is interested can find out as soon as he inquires.What the Zhou family said this week and Senior Brother Mei San also knew the basics. It was unreasonable not to know that Gu Guoshi was standing behind him. If he really wanted to kill Mei Xiyun, the whole family would have to be buried with him. As long as his family members were not crazy, they would never do it. This kind of thing that lost his wife and lost his army.He also stood up and said: "This matter is indeed strange, master and master should investigate carefully, after all, they are also relatives of our family, even if they die, they must die clearly, and the evidence should be conclusive. "

"There is no saying that everything is flawless. Now that the matter has been exposed, it will naturally come to light one day."

Mr. Mei said flatly: "That's right, then I'll wrong my in-laws to stay in the house for a while."
