Chapter 40 Good, deal!

In fact, the atmosphere in the study was indeed quite good. Although it was not to the point of "husband singing and wife accompanying" as Grandma Shen imagined, the two of them had the same goal, so it was a harmonious atmosphere where you and I were asking questions.

In view of the scene during the day, both Shen Fu and Zhou Heng tacitly got to the point after meeting each other -

How Zhou Heng later helped Shen Fu investigate the real culprit behind the scenes.

To this end, Zhou Heng went straight to the point and directly contributed an important clue: there might be something wrong with the "third lady" he met while eating at Tianxiang Tower.

Anyway, the person sitting at the desk now knows where he is from, so there is nothing to worry about when he tells him that he does not know the "third lady":

"She is a pretty girl, in her twenties, and judging by her hair style, she must be married. Aunt Huang calls her 'Miss Third', and she doesn't seem to like her very much."

"Oh? Third Miss...?" This was a bit unexpected for Shen Fu. Before, he only asked Mu Yun to focus on the person who looked similar to the boatman described by Zhou Heng. Tianxiang Tower only mentioned it slightly. He mentioned that based on his own understanding, there were many tourists at Liuhu Lake in the spring, and the business of Tianxiang Tower was always very good, especially during lunch time. The guys were so busy that no one would notice. When it came to Zhou Heng, no one noticed who she met or talked to. Even if they met at the time, they would have no impression after time passed.

Furthermore, the other party will never come to say hello to you carelessly and leave a clue for others to investigate, right? That would be too unscrupulous!

Unexpectedly, he would now get such useful information from the client. Shen Fu pondered and asked, "Did that lady seem to be very familiar with you at that time?"

She originally wanted to ask her how the other party was dressed, what kind of carriage he was riding in, and what about the accompanying maids and wives. Unfortunately, Zhou Heng, a girl from the 21st century, couldn't tell anything except the color of the other party's dress. After thinking about it, Shen Fu decided to start from the side. Based on his intuition, the meeting between the two should not be such a coincidence.

Sure enough, Zhou Heng then provided another very useful clue: "I think, how should I put it, the relationship between the original Miss Zhou and this third lady is a bit subtle."

After thinking about it, Zhou Heng said something that he thought summed it up well: "How should I put it, the third young lady seems to want Miss Zhou to show that she is very cold to her, so that Aunt Huang and the others rest assured…"

"Go on!" After hearing this, Shen Fu forgot the origin of the girl in front of him, and instinctively said this in the same tone as he usually ordered his subordinates.

Zhou Heng couldn't help but roll his eyes: He really looks like a prince!

But there is no need to worry too much, after all, only by following his ideas can you see the horse head jade sculpture that is indispensable to you.

Zhou Heng paid no attention to it and continued to talk about the situation at that time:

"The third lady's voice was high and low. In front of Aunt Huang and the others, she said that she was her sister. She came to treat guests. Then, while they were not paying attention, she whispered that what happened last time was a pity and she would do it again. I'll think of a way."

"Nanny Huang doesn't want to see her, and she doesn't like Nanny Huang either. She also said that she would help me take care of Nanny Huang first, and then slowly take care of Chen Lu and Mu Yan."

Speaking of this, Zhou Heng couldn't help but sigh. The people who were slaves in ancient times were so pitiful. They even lost their lives if they were not careful. How innocent!

Well, it’s better to go back early, it’s not safe to be the master here anyway.

Shen Fu didn't expect such a useful clue to be obtained so easily. It seemed that the third lady must be involved in what happened later. After thinking about it, combined with what Zhou Heng had described about Aunt Huang and the others, they thought about the third lady. attitude, I thought of a possibility:

"In A Heng's family, in addition to her four brothers from the same mother, there are several other sisters who were born from a concubine, and a concubine brother. The third lady calls herself sister, and I don't know if she is the third lady from the Zhou family's concubine..."

Having said this, he raised his head again with a decisive tone that was non-negotiable:

"Tomorrow, follow Mu Yan to Miss Wednesday's house to identify them and see if they are the same person."

Zhou Heng endured it for a while, feeling that there was no need to be too serious about such small details, just give orders, but in general terms, he still needed to be reminded incidentally, so he nodded and said:

"No problem, it's best if it's the same person. In this case, things will go smoothly later on, and we can also get there soon, haha!" You understand.

Shen Fu naturally understood. The development of the matter was much smoother than he imagined, and it might not be as complicated as he imagined. It was not the situation Zhou Yan said, so he nodded and expressed his position:

"When the truth comes to light, Shen will definitely hand over a black jade sculpture of a horse head to the girl."

As for whether it is the one you are looking for, I'm sorry, it's best to find it by chance. If you can't find it, I only said it was one statue, not that one. After all, I haven't seen it before, so I tried my best.

Shen Fu's words were actually quite misleading. Zhou Heng didn't think much about it. He also thought that the other party was a pleasant person. He was originally sitting on the edge of the Arhat's bed. Seeing that the two of them reached a consensus so quickly, he came over and stood in front of the desk happily. He stretched out his hand towards him: "Okay, deal! Come on, shake hands!"

Shake hands? Shen Fu saw her right hand stretched out in front of his eyes, with the four fingers together, the thumb open, and the palm facing the right. Although he didn't know what it meant, he could still understand the word "shake hands", and his face started to start again. Hot: "Girl, isn't this inappropriate?"

We're not husband and wife, so how can we hold hands together? That's too, too intimate!

However, during the day, he stepped forward to cover her lips in a daze, and the girl also grabbed her hand. Could it be what she calls a "handshake" now?

Thinking like this, for fear that Zhou Heng would grab his hand again, Shen Fu quickly retracted his hands on the table and said awkwardly: "Girl, this, I'm afraid this is related to Isn’t that inappropriate?”

Although he knew that he was engaged to the rich and handsome man the same day he came to this world for no reason, Zhou Heng never thought about what he would do with Shen Fu for a moment. He was only thinking about how to go back the same way, especially Yesterday, I encountered an unexplained disaster. It would be a lie to say that I was not shocked. But thinking that I could always go back to the safe and worry-free 21st century could offset the shock of being attacked by the boatman and almost dying in Liuhu Lake. Feeling of fear.

Later, I arrived at Prince Jing's Mansion in time and received protection and care. No one I met, Shen Fu or Aunt Shen, showed any signs of panic. My heart gradually calmed down, but my desire to go back became even stronger. , he had no other thoughts about this ancient rich and handsome man.

Talking about his thoughts, his only thought was that he wanted him to donate the black jade horse head carving as soon as possible so that he could return home smoothly.

So now that she felt that her goal of returning home was very close, Zhou Heng didn't think much about the ancient rules of men and women, such as accepting, accepting, and not being intimate with each other. For a moment, she couldn't think of it, so she just continued to stretch out her hands according to her past habits:

"It's just a handshake to show that we are happy to cooperate! Come on!"
