Ding Tian's Ancient Life

Ding Tian and Jin Buhuan looked at each other: "We will investigate, but Aunt Meng and all the people here are not allowed to leave the hospital. They can only enter and exit after our investigation is completed."

"Why?" Aunt Meng stood up abruptly, almost screaming: "This is the Lei Mansion."

"Yes, this is Lei's Mansion." A person came in outside, it was Mrs. Lei.

"Madam has seen Madam."

Everyone saluted, Mrs. Lei raised her hand: "Forget it, the two adults have something to say, although it is not convenient for the women in the inner house to come forward, but they can still do it if they are optimistic about some people."

"Then thank you Madam, we have to go out and check the records of the medicine hall, and ask Madam for help, the inner house is the scene of the crime, it cannot be destroyed, and no one can be allowed in or out, eating, drinking and drinking are not prohibited.... "To put it bluntly, they can't take people back, so they can only let Lei's mansion temporarily act as a high-level prison cell and confine them in place.

"Yes." Mrs. Lei's domineering air leaked out, and she finally had a bit of a general's posture: "Mrs. Ben asked her female soldiers to come and stand guard."

The female soldiers were left to Mrs. Lei by Mrs. Lei's mother. There are only a dozen or so of them, but it's no problem for a woman to beat two or three men. It's worse than Wang Zuo's female guards, but in such a family, such women are scarier than men.

In the inner house, such a woman can kill all directions.

In the inner house, unrelated men are forbidden to enter.

"Then I will take my leave first." Ding Tian cupped his hands and bid farewell to Mrs. Lei, and Jin Buhuan did the same.

"Two adults, go slowly, I won't send you off." Mrs. Lei waved her hand: "Hao Er, go and see off the two adults. This case requires the two adults to take care of you."

"Ma'am, you are welcome..." Jin Buhuan exchanged pleasantries with Ding Tian and Mrs. Lei, while Aunt Meng couldn't even lift her head under Mrs. Lei's strong aura, shivering like a weak lotus flower in the wind... Well, This is a white lotus with a black heart.

Mr. Lei sent them out of the mansion, he didn't give them any seals, but he gave Wang Ershi and Ma Xiaofeng who followed them, each with a purse, it was regarded as a reward of silver, even those who stayed outside were also rewarded.

It was not until he left Hongyi Lane that Jin Buhuan asked Ding Tian, ​​"Do you want to go to the medicine hall?"

"Go!" Ding Tian pursed his lips: "Go and ask, otherwise there will always be a knot in my heart that cannot be solved."

A group of them went straight to the medicine hall.

The pharmacy is opened in the outer city, and those in the inner city go to the Tai Hospital, and ordinary pharmacies will not patronize it.

The pharmacy is very big, and there are many people in it, but Ding Tian and the others are official servants, so they went to the boss directly when they came, and checked the account books. It was indeed recorded that there was a customer who came to buy safflower alone that day, and bought four taels of safflower.

"Only four taels?" Ding Tian thought it was a bit small.

"It's rare, isn't it?" Jin Buhuan smiled: "Safflower is a flower, and the flowers are small, and they are lighter after drying. You think four taels is less, but in fact, four taels of red flowers are quite a big package. "

"Oh." Ding Tian was silent for a while.

It was Wang Ershi who looked at the time: "Young Master Tian, ​​don't change your husband, why don't you go have some lunch? It's almost past noon..."

Ding Tian raised his head: "It's already this hour?"

"Yes!" Wang Ershi pointed to the outside: "Mrs. Lei went to the Rumengju, and she should have invited us to rest and have a meal, but you two... After you came out, you rushed from the inner city to the outer city. It’s almost noon for those who check accounts and ask about medicine.”

"Yes, yes, let's go and eat." Jin Buhuan also slapped his forehead: "Find a restaurant nearby."

"Let's go." It's good that Wang Ershi didn't remind him, but when he reminded, Ding Tian's stomach growled.

There is a Shandong restaurant nearby that looks quite big. After Ding Tian and the others went in, they asked for a private room. Everyone sat together and ordered [-] dishes. The table was full, because there were so many people and the food was lively. , but in such a place, if the meal is not lively, it is an alternative.

Unlike the inner city, the restaurants in the inner city are big and elegant, but... when eating, no one will shout loudly or even fight.

Just like now, Yu Fei was very angry about his experience in Lei Mansion today: "When I see Lord Lei Ming in the future, I will take out my pocket card once and show it to him, so that he will detour when he sees me in the future."

"Yes, just do it like this!" Lu Yan also supported Yu Fei while pawing and pulling the braised noodles: "Let his eyes be brightened in the future."

"

Ding Tian and Jin Buhuan lowered their heads to pick up noodles. The staple food of this restaurant is braised noodles.

The ingredients are sufficient, minced meat, eggs, green chili and miso.

After eating, everyone rested for a while before going downstairs to check out and leave.

Did not get in the car right away, Ding Tian and Jin Buhuan seldom came out during the day, so they took people for a stroll in the street, discussing things while walking.

Next case.

"It seems that Mrs. Liu is not lying. Someone did come to buy the safflower. I also roughly checked the medicinal residues and found nothing wrong. The safflower is too small, so I need to go back and search carefully..." Jin Buhuan and Ding Tian chatted as they walked: "Did the second housekeeper betray the water or did he never seek refuge with Aunt Meng?"

"I can't see it all." Ding Tian smoothed his thoughts: "On the surface, it is true that Lei Jiahao and Mrs. Lei are indeed suspected, but Aunt Meng's reaction was too great. When the second housekeeper reported the case, it was In the middle of the night, the yamen of the Ministry of Criminal Justice sent people to go, but they were kicked out by Mr. Lei Ming. That means that the case is settled as soon as it is settled. What kind of door? What kind of investigation? Otherwise, Xu Shangshu would not have handed over the case to you and me Come to handle it, someone has already gone to investigate, and the review is not allowed but the case is urged to be finalized. Do you believe that there is no ghost in your heart?,,

"That's true." Jin Buhuan thought for a while: "If it's not Mrs. Lei and Mr. Lei, then it's Aunt Meng."

"You also think it's her?" Ding Tian looked at Jin Buhuan: "Me too."

"Aunt Meng's method is actually not very clever, you can tell it at a glance, but why is she biting Mrs. Lei?" Jin Buhuan shook his head: "I don't understand this point. She is a concubine, and she is not like that." As for Madam, what good does it do for her to bite Madam Lei? And Mrs. Lei, what does he mean? Instead of protecting his wife and children, he told a concubine that Mrs. Lei is also suspected?

Isn't it obvious that Mrs. Lei is jealous?

For ancient women, being jealous was one of the seven outlaws.

"By the way, do you still remember the silk spinning?" Ding Tian suddenly brought up this topic.

"Remember, I made the underwear for Mr. Lei, because he is going to be in his zodiac year, so I made a red Dangdangsha, hehe...it's quite expensive." Jin Buhuan said: "Things like spinning silk are very expensive. , and, ah, bright red...hehe, it's usually the color for newlyweds...hehehe..."

Thinking of the big red color to ward off evil spirits, he couldn't help laughing.

"Then what about making women's dresses?" Ding Tian asked again.

"That's impossible." Wang Ershi curled his lips: "Master Tian, ​​you don't know that this kind of material is light and breathable, in other words, it is very soft. If a woman wears it... the wind blows and it sticks to your body, can you still see it?"

Ding Tian was taken aback: "Then why can't you watch it?"

"Put it on the body...doesn't it reveal everything?" Jin Buhuan reminded him in a low voice: "If a man wears it close to his body, he can also wear it in the bedroom. He is not afraid of being close to the body, as long as it is breathable and cool. Women can only wear it close to the body." Dressed up and ostentatiously going out, it’s not worth it...to let people see how cheap it is!"

Close-fitting may also be a way of dressing to show your figure in modern times, such as tights, but in ancient times, this was a very serious matter. Women in brothels and Chu houses would not wear bellybands to meet customers, at least they would not wear bellybands. You have to wear a skirt.

There is also no plump and unrestrained woman showing half of a big steamed bun, which is all the imagination of modern people.

No woman can go out in such a dress, and the women in the brothel and Chuguan are no different.

But it can only be done by a very bold and unrestrained woman from the brothel Chuguan. Ordinary women and Taoists would have died of embarrassment long ago.

"Go to the pharmacy and ask, is the woman they saw wearing clothes that fit you well?" Ding Tian had a sudden thought: "Otherwise, red alone can't be so eye-catching, unless..."

"Unless the color is bright and the lines are particularly prominent!" Jin Buhuan also thought of this: "Ordinary men can't see such a scenery.,,

Isn't it!

Ding Tian and the others turned back to the medicine hall and asked, the boy who was grabbing the medicine at that time blushed: "The reason why I remember that day clearly is because

The clothes I wore for that girl are very nice, if the wind blows...it's a bit close to the body.... "

The exquisite curves are exposed, which naturally attracts attention. I guess the girl didn't expect that she took the medicine and left in embarrassment. Although the scarf on her face was not taken off, her white forehead was red!

"Go back and ask, who in their house still has that kind of silk!" Ding Tian said affirmatively: "If there is any, take it out, if there is less...it must be made into clothes and worn out."

"Go to Lei's Mansion!" Jin Buhuan hurried back to Lei's Mansion regardless of what kind of meal he had at this time.

Lei Fu is preparing dinner.

Unexpectedly, Ding Tian and the others would come to the door again.

If it wasn't for Menzi who knew them, it would be easy to be suspected of being here for dinner, and Lei's mansion at this time is not very peaceful.

Mr. Lei Ming was on a business trip, but was dragged by his boss to some place for dinner, but he didn't come back, only the servant who was with him came back and told Madam.

This upset Meng Fanhua who had been looking forward to his return.

She really wanted Mr. Lei Ming to come back and take a look. His wife, the head wife of Lei Mansion, sent ten tall and strong women to guard her Rumeng Residence and not let her in or out. What does this mean? ?See if the master is coming, can they stop him!However, Lei Ming didn't come back, but went to socialize instead.

Hearing the news, Meng Fanhua was so angry: "The family is going to be turned upside down, why is he going to socialize? I think he went to find some bitch?"

"My aunt, don't say such things." Xiao Meng'er also went through a lot of hardships, and only asked a few words with the aunt who brought in the food, and the aunt didn't dare to say more.

As everyone knows, the aunt who delivered the food still got Madam's permission and asked her to "disclose" the news to Aunt Meng.

Otherwise, they really don't know anything.

And Ding Tian and the others suddenly came to the door for the second time, and they also saw Mrs. Lei, but this time they asked to check the bright red textile.

silk.

"Spinning silk?" Mrs. Lei was stunned for a moment, and then said sadly: "Yes, there are three bright red spinning silks in the house."

"Madam, are you all there?"

"It's gone, one is for my elder son to make a coat...the other I cut some rulers to make the hem of the clothes, and the other..." Mrs. Lei hesitated to speak.

"What happened to the other horse?" Ding Tian and Jin Buhuan asked in unison.

"There is another one that the master wants to give to Aunt Meng." Mrs. Lei gritted her teeth and said: "But you also know the identity of Aunt Meng, she can't wear red clothes, so she only wants to wear this material. Can look at... At most, it is a close-fitting dress to wear...,,

For example, bellybands, underwear and other underwear.

Anyway, if you wear it inside, as long as you don't take it apart to see it, no one can see it.

The clothes of ancient people are not usually cumbersome, there are several layers, and there are more than ten layers in winter.

"Go to Rumengju and ask Aunt Meng for that piece of spun silk." Ding Tian said in a deep voice, "If you can't get it out, or if it's missing, she's the only one who asks."

!,,

In the eyes of others, this case is just the death of a concubine, but in Ding Tian's eyes, it is quite bad. A pregnant woman, one dead body and two lives, what a tragedy, the person who killed her must be found out.
