[Seven-five] Sunflowers are warm

Zhan Zhao hurried out the door and headed towards Anping Lane. Judging from what police officer Chen learned, Jiang Tao did have a motive for killing.But why throw people into the well and salvage them after killing them?If it is true that Xu Xiangyang's nonsense, hiding the corpse in the house, is it too bold?What is he going to do with the corpse?

Looking at the sky, he pondered for a while and turned back halfway.Detective Chen has found something suspicious, and the body has started to stink. I'm afraid he will start to take action.If he went there rashly, he might startle the snake, so it is better to visit at night.Turning back to the Kaifeng mansion, he arranged for a few policemen to keep an eye on Jiang's house secretly, and then he himself stayed in the dark to watch and wait for the opportunity.

When it was dark and the lights were turned on in the room, Zhan Zhao glanced under the window and hid in the darkness.There was some domestic gossip in the room, and then I heard Jiang Tao's daughter-in-law Li Shi say: "Master, do you think the Chen family is giving up this time? Will they really be watching us from behind?"

Jiang Tao grimaced, "What can I do if I don't give up? The officials have also come in and searched. Where is the shadow of the younger sister?"

"But..." Mrs. Li hesitated for a moment, "but it's not a problem to keep that thing in the house all the time. The smell gets worse day by day, and sooner or later it won't be able to hide it. Besides, it's buried under the bed...it's too creepy, I can’t sleep well these days, and I’m in a panic.”

Zhan Zhao outside frowned, under the bed?Could it be that the dead body was really buried under the bed?No one would have guessed that they would bury the body under the bed, would they?Really bold.Jiang Tao's voice came from inside again, "The Chen family may be watching in the dark, just wait for us to make a move, how to deal with it will have to be discussed in the long run."

Mrs. Li became impatient, "Think long-term and think long-term! How many times have you said this before and after, people are stinking, and you still don't have an idea! No matter how strong the smell is, not to mention that the house cannot be lived, even parents should be suspicious gone."

"If you hadn't accidentally killed her, would you be here today?" Jiang Tao was a little annoyed.

"I'm not doing it for you! If she doesn't die, her parents' coffins will be posted to her! She's a married daughter, what's the point of going back to her mother's house every three days to enjoy the autumn wind? She used to support her, but now she has to support her whole family! Bah, why don't you go with your daughter if you are capable? Why should you follow us?"

"Okay, okay! Keep your voice down, so that no one can hear you!" Jiang Tao interrupted her impatiently, and the woman was speechless.Mrs. Li glared at him and complained, "Wouldn't it be fine to throw it into the well that day? What are you going to do with it again?"

"You think I'm full? The body was discovered before I was far away. The woman was scared out of her wits and called the official. If I didn't hide the body, I would have suspected us. It’s because the body has never been found that this matter has been delayed until now, even if they suspect it, it’s okay to find the body.”

Mrs. Li knew what Jiang Tao said was right. At that time, she killed someone by accident, and together with Jiang Tao, she threw the man into the well and pretended to commit suicide by throwing himself into the well.Looking back now, I can't help breaking out in a layer of cold sweat. Jiang Li died of a severe head injury. When the body was salvaged, it was clear that she did not commit suicide by throwing herself into a well. The couple must be suspected.Jiang Tao temporarily changed his mind and reversed the situation. No body could be found, and no one could say that they killed someone.It's just that I can't hide it now.Heartbroken, he said: "The corpse is so big, it's too conspicuous to move it out all at once, it's better to dismember it!"

Jiang Tao was stunned, dismembering the body?That's right, it was divided into small pieces, wrapped casually and taken out. Even if the body parts were found, they might not be able to think about the body.The husband and wife thought about it for a while and felt that this method was feasible.Li said again: "I'm afraid the smell will be even worse when the corpse is dug up. Tomorrow I will pretend to be unwell, and prescribe two medicines and boil them in the door, so as to cover up the smell."

The people in the room talked for a while, then turned off the lights, and Zhan Zhao also left quietly.

When Zhan Zhao reported the progress of the case to Mr. Bao, it was already Haishi when he returned to the small courtyard. When he opened the door, a note fell down.He froze for a moment, picked up the note, the words on it were written with charcoal, and the handwriting was beautiful.He unconsciously glanced at Xu Xiangyang's room, the lights had been turned off, and he should be asleep.

I took the note and went to the kitchen, where there was an oil lamp shining warmly.Lift the lid of the pot, as the note said, the food is warm in the pot.He didn't eat much in the evening, and he was a little too hungry by now.If it was usual, it would be like this. Now that someone is taking care of the diet, it is really different.

After Zhan Zhao went out that evening, Xu Xiangyang never saw his figure again, and it didn't affect her much.She continued to sew and live her life.Without Zhan Zhao's consent, she didn't dare to go to Mrs. Lin's, so she had to bring the medicine trustee and hand it over to her.The weather was getting colder, and the sky began to snow again. Xu Xiangyang held an oil umbrella and carried a basket to Kaifeng Mansion slowly.Such weather is really bad, the snow is trampled muddy, wet and slippery, every step must be careful.

Suddenly, there was a commotion from the opposite street, but I saw a group of officials escorting people to the direction of Kaifeng Mansion.Xu Xiangyang followed the trend, and the leader was Zhan Zhao.The flying snow foam obscured his vision, and he was getting closer and closer like this with black hair and red clothes.The tips of his shoulders and hair were already wet with snow, but he didn't realize it.She had never seen him so upright, and there was a strange feeling in her heart, warm and astringent, and more of an indescribable loneliness.She and him, even if they are close at hand, are like a world apart.

She stood in the snow and watched quietly, all the chaos around her disappeared, the only thing she could do was to watch silently, not daring to step into his world at all.Suddenly, Zhan Zhao cast his gaze towards her.She was startled, and instinctively wanted to hide, but she had nowhere to hide, and stared blankly at him through the passing pedestrians.

Zhan Zhao just glanced inadvertently, not wanting to see her holding an umbrella across the street.She was beautiful and quiet, her face was whitened by the rabbit fur scarf, and there was a trace of panic in her eyes that could not be erased at any time.But for a moment, he looked away without any emotion.Xu Xiangyang was still staring in his direction blankly, watching his figure go away, thinking that one day, he would walk out of her life like this.Suddenly she smiled shyly, she had never been here before, so why did she leave?

In the afternoon, Mrs. Wang brought over a basket of taro, saying it was from someone else, and she couldn't finish it, so she sent some over.Xu Xiangyang accepted it thankfully, but she had nothing in return, and thought about making some taro to send back in a few days.Seeing that she was still busy sewing, Mrs. Wang couldn't help but look carefully.Xu Xiangyang is skillful, he learned her method to make jacket last time, not only Chao Dynasty likes it, but her daughter likes it even more.

Sister-in-law Wang has a son and a daughter, and she made up a good word.The son is 12 years old and the daughter is ten years old.Although the little girl is not very old, she has gradually begun to love beauty.He didn't like those thick cotton-padded jackets very much. Later, Mrs. Wang learned a hand from Xu Xiangyang, which suited the little girl's wishes.Therefore, when seeing Xu Chaoyang doing needlework, Mrs. Wang would always pay more attention.

"What's the girl doing this time? Hey, your scarf looks good, my girl will definitely like it." Sister-in-law Wang's eyes were sharp, and she was immediately attracted by Xu Xiangyang's rabbit fur scarf.Xu Xiangyang smiled and untied the scarf for her, and said: "I bought some scraps of leather and pieced them together to make a lining for the jacket. The rest of the time I made a scarf. It's not difficult, but it takes a lot of work."

Sister-in-law Wang looked over and over, and said that it was made of broken leather, but the stitches were fine and the seams were exquisite, as she said, it took a lot of work.She put down the scarf, looked at Xu Xiangyang's plain appearance, and said: "It's better for you young girls, you look good in anything, even if it's as simple as this, there's a sense of beauty."

Xu Xiangyang smiled and didn't answer, and Mrs. Wang just mentioned it casually, then picked up the rabbit fur lining she made for Zhan Zhao, shook it away, and her eyes brightened.The rabbit fur that Xu Xiangyang bought was of mixed colors, including black, white and gray flowers. She carefully cut and arranged them, and put them together according to the style of the British plaid. It looked very generous. "Oh! This is so beautiful! If it were me, I wouldn't care about the color and pattern. I'd be grateful if I could put it together into a jacket. It would be a pity to make a lining. Master Zhan would be so happy to see it?"

Not to mention that Mrs. Wang has slowly accepted Xu Xiangyang, even if she doesn't want to see her anymore, she has to admit that she is good at craftsmanship.Her family's conditions are not bad, and she can afford to buy one or two pieces of leather to make clothes. She knows that these scraps of leather are cheap, but she has never thought of that, and she really doesn't know how to do it.Some of them saved a few bucks and were said to be nondescript by the dynasty, but look at them, how skillful they are.

"It's just a piece of clothing. I only think about it when I'm free. My sister-in-law is busy all day, and there are two children to take care of. How can I take care of these?"

This time Mrs. Wang has opened her eyes again, but these are all meticulous work, just like what Xu Xiangyang said, she really doesn't have time to do it.While talking, Zhan Zhao came back.Sister-in-law Wang is familiar with Zhan Zhao, and she is a few years older than him, and she speaks casually. "Master Zhan, you're back? It's snowing outside, and you don't even have an umbrella."

Zhan Zhao smiled slightly, "It's okay."

"How can I not get in the way? You see that your clothes are all wet, so hurry up and change your clothes. It's not good to catch a cold. Just in time, Miss Xu gave you a rabbit fur jacket, try it out." Saying that, she put it in Zhan Zhao's hand Said, "Look, how beautiful this is. I just said it's a pity to use it as a lining."

Zhan Zhao glanced at it, and responded lightly.Sister-in-law Wang didn't want to get involved in the affairs of the two of them, so she hurriedly said that she had something to do and resigned.Seeing off Mrs. Wang, Xu Xiangyang saw that Zhan Zhao was wet, and said, "Master Zhan, go and change your official uniform first, and I'll dry it. If you don't go out later, I'll boil water and soak medicine for you." Yu, Mr. Gongsun said that your injuries have been taken care of carefully."

"Thank you." Zhan Zhao didn't refuse, thought for a while and said, "That case has been solved."

"Caught the murderer?" Xu Xiangyang recalled what he saw in the morning, so he was busy with this case these days.Zhan Zhao briefly explained what happened, and finally said: "It was the girl's nonsense that reminded me."

Xu Xiangyang didn't dare to take the credit, and quickly said: "I just said it on a whim." After a pause, "Is the corpse really hidden under the bed?" , it is appalling.

Zhan Zhao smiled, "Of course not, but it's not too far off. The corpse was buried under the bed." The room was covered with floor tiles, and other places could not be moved, but the bottom of the bed was out of the way. Will pay attention to where the hands and feet are passive.

Even so, Xu Xiangyang still finds it frightening that I am really behind you.After the case was solved, a huge stone fell from her heart, and she could go to Mrs. Lin to have a look.Seeing that he was going back to the house to change clothes, she hurriedly tied the rabbit fur lining to the jacket with a thin belt, and handed it to him, "It's getting colder and colder, you should wear this."

With a layer of rabbit fur added, the jacket became much thicker, and Zhan Zhao rarely smiled at her, "Thank you."

Xu Xiangyang was stunned by this smile, for him it was just a thank you, but for her it was like fireworks.The soul-stirring beauty of that moment falls in the eyes and engraves in the bottom of my heart, and it disappears before I can touch it, without a trace.
