Chapter 17 The Missing Woman
On the second day, Du Si woke up from the dream and found that there was an extra coat on his back. He packed up his appearance and walked out of the room, only to find that everyone was discussing outside the wing.
"I heard that Qi Xuzhen is extremely lewd|slutty. Although she usually looks educated and reasonable, who knows that she is so dissolute in private! When she left, she took a lot of gold and silver treasures, gold hairpins and jade bracelets are all gone!"
Du Si walked in and heard that it was Sun Ping who was telling everyone about Qi Xuzhen.
"My lord, you are here." Du Heng saw Du Si, and quickly ran over to hold his hand, "Catcher Sun is telling the story of Qi Xuzhen, which is even more exciting than the storyteller!"
"Does it mean that Qi Xuzhen has lost her morals and insulted her parents?" Du Si asked rhetorically.
"Hey, my lord, how do you know?" Du Heng asked in bewilderment.
"Now the streets and alleys of Linshui County are full of rumors about Qi Xuzhen. It's hard not to know." Du Si sighed.
At this time, there was a commotion in front of the yamen. Du Si went to the door to look around, only to find that the old couple surnamed Qi came to the yamen again today, wanting to find the magistrate.
"Though these two old people are pitiful, you know that the magistrate of the county is busy with daily affairs, not to mention that this case has already been judged, and there is no need to go to trial again."
"That's right, Qi Xuzhen's adulterous|chaotic high mansion, the wife of the mansion hasn't said anything yet."
The two hall servants were discussing in a low voice, and Du Si pondered for a moment, then walked towards the old man surnamed Qi.
"Please hurry up, both of you, the county magistrate Qiu is not in the government office, you can come back another day." Du Si helped Qi An up and respectfully said to him.
"Are you... the young master from yesterday?" Qi An immediately recognized Du Si.
Du Si nodded, a gleam of light rose from the turbid eyeballs of the sixtieth old man, it was like a light cast in the eyes, dazzling but extremely fragile.
"My lord, little girl Xu is innocent! I don't know who is spreading rumors about the little girl this morning, so please judge for me!"
Qi An couldn't cry, coughing repeatedly because he couldn't breathe, Du Si quickly patted his back to help him breathe.
"My wife suffers from heart disease, and my daughter often goes to the pharmacy in the west of the city to get medicine. Recently, he misses Xu Zhen very much, and his heart disease has worsened..." Wife Qi said while supporting Qi An, wiping her tears.
Du Si remained silent and sent Qi An home.
The old couple's family was not rich, but they loved reading very much, so they vacated an empty room as a study room. Du Si followed Qi An into the study room, and saw books piled up on loose wooden shelves, and a horizontal wooden table. There are a lot of paper left, and the beautiful small characters are flying on it, which is very beautiful.
"This is what my little girl did. Xu Zhen usually doesn't like rouge and hairpins, but only loves reading. Xu Zhen has already read most of the books in this house, and even the county town is not as talented as my little girl."
Qi An smiled through tears, stretched out his rough fingers and gently stroked the white paper, feeling extremely nostalgic.
Du Si observed a few times, walked to the front of the bookshelf and said, "The old man is lucky, the bookshelf is so clean, it must be cleaned often."
The old lady Qi said, "When Xuzhen was here, she always shared the family affairs and was extremely filial. Because she could read and write, she would help her father write a few pictures and earn some money."
"She can write? Can you let me take a look next time?" Du Si asked.
"My lord, please take a look." Qi An presented a blank paper with both hands.
Du Si took it and took a closer look. The characters on the paper are beautiful and the strokes are light and elegant, especially the left-handed radicals, which are extremely beautiful.
"Could you let me go down and have a look in the lady's room?" Du Si asked.
"Of course, my lord, this way please."
The old couple welcomed Du Si into Xuzhen's room. It was very tidy, and the four treasures of the study were all available, but the jewelry and rouge that a woman should have was nowhere to be found. There is only a bronze mirror and a wooden comb on the dressing table, which is extremely monotonous.
This is more like a place where men live than women.
"How did you talk about this marriage with a big family surnamed Gao?" Du Si wondered.
"It's also a coincidence. Master Gao was not rich before. I happened to rescue him a few times and gave him a few extra pieces of cake. This marriage was completed."
Qi An showed a nostalgic smile, which was immediately replaced by disappointment.
"Before my daughter's accident, I had promised to get married in early May, so Gao's family took Xu Zhen away in early April, and I never met Xu Zhen again..."
As Qi An said, two lines of tears flowed down the stream.
"Du knows that you love your daughter dearly, but if there is no other evidence, the case cannot be retried."
Du Si comforted Qi An, and he walked around the room a few times, and the bright white exposed under the pillow caught his attention.
It was a blank piece of paper with a few lines written on it. Du Si opened it and looked at it, but couldn't put it down for a long time.
I see above it says:
Those who give birth to me are also my parents.
The same is true for those who support me.
My beloved, my dearest relative.
The traces of being wet and air-dried are very obvious, and a very strong sorrow filled Dusi's heart, making him breathless.
At the same time, Du Si was even more sure that this case was not as simple as Cao Mingde said.
"Can Du Mou take this piece of paper back to the government?" Du Si asked.
"As long as the little girl can be cleared, the adults can do whatever they want."
Du Si said a few more words to Qi An, asked about the location of the Gao Mansion, and hurried back to the Yamen.
"Hey, Master Du is back!" Wang Qi said excitedly.
"My lord, where are you going?" Du Heng stood at the door, looking at Du Si who was busy in the room.
"Go to Gaofu." Du Si pulled Du Heng up, "You also go with me."
"My lord, the case has come to light, why do you need to work so hard?"
"The person who can write these words must not be the prodigal son in the rumors."
Du Si said firmly, and couldn't help walking a little faster. The two masters and servants walked through the streets and came to a mansion in the abyss. The door made is extravagant.
"I'm sent by County Captain Cao, can you make it easier for me?"
Du Si stepped forward to knock on the door, and the servant at the door heard his words and immediately let him into the house.
The inside of the Gao Mansion is the same as the outside, large and small stone statues appear in groups in the mansion, blue bricks and black tiles are even more common, and groups of servants pass by in an orderly manner, which shows that the mansion has strong financial resources.
It took Du Si a lot of effort to come to Qi Xuzhen's room.
The room is well-furnished, with more expensive furniture, light-colored gauze curtains are light and soft, and there is an exquisite incense burner. Dusi opened the lid of the incense burner, but the inside was empty and full of dust. He couldn't help frowning and walked back and forth in the room.
Du Heng sneezed suddenly, "Why is there so much dust in this room?"
Du Si wiped the tables and chairs with his hands, and his fingertips were immediately stained with a thick layer of black ash. He suddenly opened the closet, and saw that the closet was full of pots, pans, and some daily necessities.
At this moment, a maid rushed in and woke up Du Si who was in deep thought.
The author has something to say: I lost another collection, and my heart hurts.
Just halfway through the end of 54 favorites, hold yourself tight.
