Xiong Xingshun personally brought two people in and took Pan Gui away.
"Wait a minute."
Just as Xiong Xingshun went out, Lin Chuang shouted.
Xiong Xingshun stopped.
Lin Chuang walked out of the hall and said to Xiong Xingshun: "Old Xiong, Pan Gui is an important witness. You must hand over his safety to Wang Mu and not let him get hurt at all."
Xiong Xingshun immediately replied: "Sir, please don't worry. I can't see Captain Wang in my humble position, and I won't hand him over to anyone."
"Well, I can rest assured that Old Xiong can do things." Lin Chuang patted Xiong Xingshun on the shoulder and said approvingly.
Xiong Xingshun grinned and walked away with a smile.
Lin Chuang did not go back to his room immediately, but stood in the yard and looked around.
The courtyard is very large, with two rows of wing rooms in the east and west, and each row has five rooms.
On the roof of the east wing, a group of pigeons were looking for food, and another pigeon was flying into the distance.
The blue sky and the white doves are such a beautiful sight.
Just as he was about to go back to the house, he glanced at Chunmei and saw Chunmei walking nervously from the southernmost wing, holding a new handkerchief in her hand.
Back in the living room, Lin Chuang suddenly saw a green glass cup with a modern look on the back table.
This kind of open glass, thick at the top and thin at the bottom, was not uncommon in later generations, but it is a rarity today.
He took it into his hand and took a closer look, and found that the cup was dark green, with a strong sense of simplicity, and the body of the cup was engraved with bamboo patterns, a very exquisite pattern.
"This is an item from the Qing Dynasty that my father asked for in exchange. According to my father, there should be four of them, namely the Four Gentlemen of Plum, Orchid, Bamboo and Chrysanthemum. But my father only asked for two in exchange. This one is just bamboo, and one is plum.
"Jing Xin saw that Lin Chuang was interested in the cup and explained from the side.
"Where's the plum cup?" Lin Chuang asked.
"My dad usually drinks water from it. No, where did it go?" Jing Xin asked Luo Lin.
"I don't know." Luo Lin said, as if he had thought of something, and said: "A servant must have taken advantage of the chaos and stole it. Miss, I will search for it right away."
"Even so, it's not a valuable object, so don't make yourself anxious." Jing Xin said.
"No, we should search for it." When he said this, Lin Chuang never took his eyes off the cup.
Jing Xin thought to herself, it seems like he really likes it. Well, let’s look for it, it’s hard to give one to him.
"Uncle Luo, let's look for him and try not to make a big fuss," Jing Xin said.
"Yes, miss." Luo Lin agreed and went out.
"You haven't eaten yet? Have you eaten before leaving?" Jing Xin asked Lin Chuang.
"Okay." Lin Chuang put down the cup and agreed readily.
Jing Xin told Wu Xin: "Go to the kitchen to make some side dishes. It's hot, don't make them greasy, and make them refreshing."
"Yes." Wuxin agreed.
"Master, I know your taste best. May I go to the kitchen and have a look?" Yi Lianhua stood up and said.
"That's best." Jing Xin said.
Yi Lianhua and Wu Xin left.
Jing Xin glanced at Lin Chuang and thought to herself, no wonder he carries Yi Lianhua with him all the time. He is indeed loyal.
Lin Chuang ignored his look and said, "I haven't visited my aunt yet. Go and ask if it's convenient to visit my aunt?"
"good."
Jing Xin stood up and entered the inner room.
After a while, the door curtain was raised, and Jing Xin and Chun Mei came out supporting an old lady.
Lin Chuang quickly stood up.
"Sir, this is my mother." Jing Xin introduced.
Lin Chuang walked up to him and bowed: "Hello, aunt."
"Hello, Mr. Lin." Mother Pan replied softly.
Lin Chuang saw that she was very slim and did not have a figure like that of a landlady. Although there were already crow's feet on the corners of her eyebrows, it was obvious that she must have been a beauty when she was young.
Pan's mother sat on the main seat, Lin Chuang sat in Yi Lianhua's seat, and Jing Xin stood on Pan's side.
"I heard from my daughter that Mr. Lin is trying his best to exonerate me. Thank you very much. Xiaoxian, bow to Mr. Lin for me," Mother Pan said.
"Yes." Jing Xin responded and walked to Lin Chuang.
"No, no, no, this is impossible." Lin Chuang quickly stopped him.
In front of Pan's mother, he couldn't help the mirror, so he just used his hands to block it.
Jing Xin still bent down: "Thank you, sir."
"Auntie, I really don't deserve this. It's my nephew's responsibility to investigate the disease, so he really doesn't deserve this thank you." Lin Chuang said.
"Mr. Lin, although it is your duty to investigate the case, this case is unusual, the opponent is powerful, and others cannot avoid it. Who else but you will take the initiative to interfere? I understand the meaning of protection in this." Pan's mother.
road.
"It's really shameful. So far, I don't have a clue." Lin Chuang said.
When Pan's mother heard this, a look of disappointment appeared on her face.
Maybe thinking of her husband, tears welled up again.
"Mom!" Jing Xin stepped forward, took out her handkerchief, wiped her mother's tears, and said, "Isn't this still under investigation? Don't worry."
Pan's mother calmed down and seemed to feel that it was not good to be like this in front of Lin Chuang, so she said: "Mr. Lin is making a joke. If a stupid man kills someone, the worst result is nothing more than paying for his life. I have been mentally prepared.
It’s just that this is our first meeting, and I have an unkind invitation, and I hope you will agree to it.”
"Auntie, please speak."
"The crime of being a clumsy man is best if you can get rid of it, even if all your family wealth is lost. If you can't get rid of it, there is nothing you can do. Just do your best and obey fate. However, Xiaoxian is still young, so I hope Mr. Lin will take care of him."
This is Tuogu.
It seems that Pan's mother has prepared for the worst.
Lin Chuang said: "Don't worry, aunt, if that day comes, my nephew will definitely protect her."
"Thank you, Mr. Lin." Pan's mother thanked her, and then said, "Oh, my family has suffered a sudden disaster, and I am heartbroken. I'm sorry, let Xiaoxian accompany you, I'll go and have a rest."
"Aunt, please." Lin Chuang stood up.
Pan's mother made a very good impression on Lin Chuang.
He is well-informed and has a good eye.
"When you were young, you weren't a student, were you?" Lin Chuang thought to himself.
After a while, the food will be served.
Wuxin and Yi Lianhua served it in person.
There are four dishes in total. Braised fish with tofu, rapeseed with fragrant rapeseed, cucumber and shrimp, and Kaiyangpu vegetables.
Only three bowls are faster.
Wu Xin waited and asked Lin Chuang, Yi Lianhua and Jing Xin to clean their hands respectively.
The three of them sat down to eat.
Seeing that Jing Xin was too polite, Lin Chuang only took a few bites of green vegetables, and most of the time he just held the kuaizi without moving.
"Eat more." Lin Chuang looked at her deeply and said.
"Yeah." Jing Xin understood what he meant, picked a piece of fish, put it in her mouth and chewed it slowly.
"Did your father eat breakfast alone, or did your aunt eat with him?" Lin Chuang asked while eating.
"No, he ate with my mother." Jing Xin replied.
Lin Chuang nodded.
Originally he planned to check the people in the kitchen, but now he no longer thinks so.
In his mind, he had ruled out the possibility of poisoning.
In addition to the suspicion that the poison takes too long to develop, there is another point. If the food is poisoned, there is no reason why the husband is poisoned and the wife is fine.
[To be honest, I have been using Yeguo Reading recently to catch up on books, change sources, and read aloud with many sounds, and it can be used on both Android and Apple.]
The key is that the couple has a deep love for each other.
Mother Pan's sadness is real and her tears cannot be faked.
