Ye An thought it was ridiculous. He just saved Yingniang by chance and talked to her. Then the little girl became rebellious after hearing the conversation between her parents.
yes!
According to physiology, teenage girls are in the rebellious stage. Of course, they are also responsible. After all, encouraging other children to "break the feudal shackles" is an act that violates the etiquette of this era. She should even be held primarily responsible.
.
At that time, I just felt angry. I felt that feudal arranged marriages were harmful to people, and even more so, I felt that Yingniang's way of seeking death for the "murderer" was outrageous. But now I think about the helplessness of this era, so what if I can help Yingniang?
Could it be that a little girl like her is really selling wine as a coward?
Reality and ideals are different. Poetry and distant places are almost worthless in the face of food and clothing. This era is such an environment. Those who dare to resist will either become heroes that have been sung for thousands of years, or they will have weeds three feet high on their graves.
!
Watching Ying Niang leave in a daze, her staggering steps revealed everything in her heart. Suddenly, Ye An remembered something, something that everyone seemed to have forgotten. The murderer hadn't been caught yet...
Everyone is busy with things related to the disaster. Everyone is thinking about themselves and how they can benefit from this disaster. Even the experienced people are packing their things and preparing herbs to go to Yangcheng during this time.
The county rescues the victims, but who cares about the "hard-working" Yingniang at this time?
The person who cares most about Yingniang is not Ye An. Ye An knows this very well. The only person who really cares about Yingniang is Zhan'er, Yingniang's personal maid.
This woman is a few years older than Yingniang, but she is much more mature than Yingniang. She sees the problem even more clearly than Yingniang, a lady of the family.
But she is not a stand-out person. As a maid, she knows how to act in a low-key manner and understands many stakes. From the outside, she is as innocent and simple as Yingniang, and even more low-key. She is so low-key that everyone ignores her, but Ye An...
I noticed her the first time I saw her.
Because this woman was not as "harmless" as she seemed, Ye An followed the initial "murder inference" and targeted this seemingly innocent woman, because only she could see Ying Niang before she came through the door.
"Groom Officer", as Ying Niang's personal maid, she is also the eldest maid of the first wife who will marry into the groom's family along with Ying Niang.
After Ye An inquired about Wangjiazhuang, he discovered that every time, Zhan'er went to the groom's house first, and then the strange thing happened that the groom was killed by Ying Niang.
When the groom dies, he almost always dies of painful suffocation, which is quite strange.
This time Ye An still saw the maid named Zhan'er behind Ying Niang, but she was hiding in a corner and deliberately hiding it, but the coldness in her eyes made Ye An extremely uncomfortable.
Indeed, "that thing" should have been done by the owner of these eyes, ruthless and cold. Wang Gang once said that those "quasi-aunts" died in such a miserable way that they foamed at the mouth and tore the flesh on their necks with their hands.
He convulsed and died.
This was obviously death by suffocation, and it was accompanied by convulsions. It just so happened that the only poison that Ye An knew that could kill people was hydrocyanic acid in cyanide. This was the poison gas commonly used during World War II. It could cause convulsions and even catalepsia.
Sex spasm stops the heartbeat, very fast...
It is impossible for poison gas to appear in this era, that is, a poison containing cyanide. Unfortunately, Ye An did not find any cyanide poison in Wangjiazhuang, nor did he find anything that could prepare cyanide.
The death of the groom, cyanide poisoning, Ying Niang's maid had time to commit the crime, Ye An connected all the clues of his suspicion, and became more and more strange about Zhan'er.
The Wang Gang brought a sour soup to relieve the hangover, and also a ringo fruit.
"Mr. Ye Xiaolang, this sour soup has just been warmed, and it is very effective in relieving hangovers. If the old god likes to cool down, this Pinpo fruit is very effective in relieving hangovers!"
"Thank you, King, for taking care of things. Just give these to me."
Wang Gang waved his hands repeatedly: "Young man, you're welcome. If you like to eat Pinpo fruit, just ask. There are many of them here, young lady... You are a real immortal! Those turbid wines in Zhuangzi have come to you.
It turned into an intoxicating wine in my hands, I don’t know Mr. Xiaolang......"
Sure enough, he brought the topic back, and Ye An interrupted with a smile: "Official Wang didn't get anything from Ye An, so Manager Wang still wants to find out the news?"
Wang Gang smiled awkwardly and said: "Curious, just curious. Don't misunderstand me, Mr. Xiaolang, don't misunderstand..."
After the Wang gang left, Ye An held the sour soup in one hand, threw up the Ringo fruit in the other and walked towards the house. The Wang gang was too stingy and gave them one fruit at a time. Didn't they see two people?
The bright red Ringo fruit surprised Ye An, because in his mind, this thing was an "apple" but much smaller and redder, but in Wang Bang's mouth, it became a "Binpo fruit".
Drunk people first have a headache, and secondly they are thirsty. A bowl of hangover sour soup can just relieve the headache and thirst problems. After drinking it slowly, the old man feels much better and sleeps soundly for a long time.
And Ye An took a bite of the bright red Pinpo fruit, and he couldn't help but shiver because of the sour taste. The taste of this Pinpo fruit was not as good as that of later generations, and the texture was completely different. The flesh was soft and easy to rot like a peach, unlike the ones cultivated in later generations.
The apples are so crisp.
But it was still a vitamin, so Ye An was naturally not polite and ate it up quickly, but he tasted a bit of "bitter almond flavor" in the core.
This smell instantly set off his alarm. At the same time, recalling what Wang Gang said just now, the corners of his mouth immediately curled up. He knew where the cyanide came from.
Although the pinpo fruit is different from the apple, it is a type of ringo. The core of the fruit contains cyanide. A trace amount of cyanide is not fatal, but if there is enough, severe cyanide poisoning will occur.
But he still lacks evidence and has no way to prove that Zhan'er did it, and he still doesn't know Zhan'er's motive for the murder.
The old man slept very hard, and Ye An returned to his room. This was the guest room in Wang Daguan's mansion. It was a separate small courtyard. It was an elegant and quiet place. The room was full of Song-style furniture.
The lines are smooth and elegant, echoing the classic saying "simple but not simple".
The shape is quaint and elegant. A few seemingly slender pillars can support a large book desk. The dark ink color gives people a strong visual impact. In Ye An's eyes, this is more like the high-end furniture of later generations. It is really amazing.
.
The most important thing is that these furniture maintain the simplest expression, without any fancy carvings, patterns or the like. They are restrained and naive, without any carvings, and are more simple than simple.
Unexpectedly, the simple style popular in later generations had already appeared in the Song Dynasty, and it was more exquisite and lovely.
Slowly sitting down in front of the desk, there are pens, inks, papers and inkstones, but there are more than these. There are lotus-shaped pen washers, pen handlers, and exquisite small wine bottles that look like water bottles. The exquisite utensils are so beautiful that it makes people dizzy.
Sitting here, Ye An began to play unconsciously. Only then did he really come into contact with the cultural life of the Song people. It was eye-catching and colorful. Of course, it also gave him a new way to make money...
