"Do you remember something strange happened when my wife or third lady used to drive five years ago? Or is something wrong? " After thinking about it, Xu Shaoyin asked directly. Then he continued to add a sentence.
"It's OK. Don't worry. Just sit here and think, Muyun tea." Then he looked back and motioned to Muyun for tea. Although he had already sat on the chair, the groom still seemed a little embarrassed. Xu Shaoyin took a look at her, got up and went inside, leaving only Muyun and Yuqing looking outside.
Although she was holding her favorite Baojian daily, she couldn't concentrate on watching it. However, she took a look at the newspaper and looked up at the direction of the flower hall. Just when Xu Shaoyin lowered her eyebrows to ponder whether it was really what the man said, Yu Qingmei came in.
"Miss, the groom remembers." Xu Shaoyin eyebrows a joy, followed out.
"I don't know what the second lady wants to know. I'll tell her all about five years ago."
Seeing Xu Shaoyin coming out, the groom immediately took out a small book from his arms and opened it. It was full of words, but Xu Shaoyin couldn't understand any of the ghost symbols.
However, he was a little annoyed. The groom began not to talk about his bookkeeping habits, which would suddenly show his innocence and worry him for so long.
"What's this?"
"When Miss Hui ER was alive, my father once told me that it was better to keep accounts, but the younger one had never been to school and could not write, so I replaced it with lines on this book. The horizontal bar means that she came back safe and sound, and the arc line means that there were some small problems." Pointing to the lines on the book, the groom explained in detail that at this time, he had faded from the embarrassment and calmed down a lot.
"I can't understand you. Just tell me about five years ago." Although the groom's explanation is easy to understand, Xu Shaoyin still feels that the first two are big when it comes to the ghost like script. He simply shoves the script back to the groom and says in a cold voice.
"Well, let's talk to the second young lady." The groom was still respectful.
Directly open the book, carefully look for a time, in a page of some dirty page stopped, looking at the black above the similar gray stains, Xu Shaoyin can not help but frown, but did not speak.
"Miss, this is the car record of five years ago. These are miss's, and these are lady's, these are miss three's and miss four's."
The groom pointed to the lines on the book that only he could understand and explained to Xu Shaoyin.
At this time, Muyun and Yuqing come together, but they can't help frowning one by one when they see the stains on them, and they step back in disgust.
At this time, even the groom felt a strange atmosphere. When he looked back, he saw the people's faces. He followed their eyes and touched the stains on the book. He suddenly realized that. Then he laughed bitterly and quickly explained.
"Miss, it's not what you think. It's a kind of soil. It's unique to Qingshan temple outside the city. But it's hard to wash it off as long as it's on. I'm afraid that the whole record will be destroyed, so I keep this thing on it. It's really not what you think. "
"Castle Peak temple?" Three words suddenly fell into his ears. Xu Shaoyin moved in his heart and looked down. He only saw that the area of the stain was not big, just the size of soybeans. There was a faint arc under it. Suddenly, he felt that a light was going to break through the fog and illuminate the answer. At this time, Xu Shaoyin was also a little excited. He pointed to the arc and looked directly at the groom.
"What does this arc mean? And who drew this line in his car. "
The groom looked down and carefully contrasted. After a long time, he looked up and solemnly replied, "if you go back to the second lady, this is what the third lady drew when she was driving."
"Then your line is an arc, and there is that kind of soil on it. Did you take miss three to Qingshan temple that day?"
Although the tone of questioning, but Xu Shaoyin has almost been able to determine the fact should be like that, sure enough, listening to Xu Shaoyin's question, the groom nodded repeatedly.
"The second young lady is right. I remember now. That day, I went to Qingshan temple outside the city with the third young lady and her maidservant to offer incense. But when I came back, it was a little late. It rained heavily on the way. At that time, the road was slippery, and the carriage fell into the ditch from the side of the road. Later, when I woke up, the third young lady was gone."
"When I got back to the house, I told my wife about it, but I didn't see any action from my wife, and the third lady didn't know anything about it. Later, the third lady didn't know when she would come back, so it passed. At that time, I was still puzzled. Why didn't the lady let someone look for her? "
Thinking of these, the groom still did not understand. It was obvious that this matter was a mystery in his mind, an unsolved mystery.
"Are you sure you remember correctly?" Xu Shaoyin's eyes narrowed and asked again.
"Second young lady, although the little one sometimes can't remember, it's written in black and white. Even if the little one can't do it any more, it's certain to just look at it." The man was obviously annoyed by Xu Shaoyin's suspicious attitude. He immediately pointed to the book and replied."In that case, you go down first. Don't mention it to others, just as if nothing has happened."
Staring at the groom finish these words, Xu Shaoyin gives Muyun a wink, Muyun will come forward to take out a silver screw to the groom. When the groom got the silver, he was surprised.
I didn't expect that there was an unexpected income today. Holding the silver in my hand tightly, I patted my chest and assured, "second lady. Don't worry. Ma Er is famous for his strict mouth. I won't tell anyone about it. Don't worry. "
Waving his hand to indicate that ma er retreats gratefully, Xu Shaoyin picks up the account book left by Ma Er, which only he can understand. It's still the obscure lines. Although ma er's explanation has been given before, Xu Shaoyin hasn't seen what those are and what they mean.
Muyun looked out of the window, immediately moved to the side of Xu Shaoyin, picked up the teapot to empty Xu Shaoyin's teacup, added tea, and whispered.
"Miss, should I go to see that young master Liu?" People already know that the incident happened outside the city, but they don't know the specific location of Mr. Liu's family at that time, so they can't be sure that the two locations can match.
Mei Mou is slightly raised, her eyelashes are slightly agitated, and Xu Shaoyin's eyes are deep in thought. Seeing that his young lady is like this, Mu Yun doesn't continue to speak. He waves his hand to show Yu Qing to go out first, and then he slowly goes out, and puts down the bead curtain outside. They guard at the door together.
"Muyun, why do we come out?" Yu Qing, who had not understood Muyun's decision, went out of the door and seized the opportunity to ask.
Not angry white jade Qing one eye, looking at jade Qing that ignorant eyes, Mu Yun would like to give her a few steel chestnuts good knock wake up, this head may be a pot of paste woman, think about it or give up, looked inside, this just helpless answer.
"Why do you say that? Miss, I'll be thinking about something. What if we find Miss inside? What's the matter with your head these days, you don't turn at all? "
"Me, I think I've been a bit stupid lately." I thought it would lead to Yuqing's sarcastic attack. Who knows that Yuqing was embarrassed and gave a silly smile. She touched the back of her head and replied with a smile.
"You! You! There's nothing I can do with you. " Mu Yun was temporarily speechless, but he shook his head and sat down on the spot. His eyes fell on the bead curtain at the door, paying attention to the situation inside, and no longer went to see Yu Qing.
In the room, Xu Shaoyin's eyebrows moved, and a faint smile rose from the corner of his mouth, as if he had made a decision. He raised his soft white fingers like green onions, put his notebook on again, and immediately went out.
"Miss..." Hearing the sound of the curtain, they quickly got up and looked at Xu Shaoyin.
"Yuqing, you should stay at home today and remember that no one is allowed to let them in." Finish saying will eyes fall on the body of Mu cloud.
"You remember that position." Mu Yun nodded.
"I remember."
"Well, Muyun, you'll go with me today." After finishing finishing her clothes, she pulls Muyun and goes out. When passing by Yuqing, she pouts her mouth, smiles and walks slowly. Only when she reaches the threshold, Xu Shaoyin suddenly turns back and says with a smile to Yuqing, who is still unhappy.
"Take good care of your home. If you do well, miss, I'll be rewarded when I come back."
Yuqing's grievance immediately turned into a bright smile. She patted her chest and promised, "Miss, you can go with Muyun. The maid promised that even an ant would not let them in."
With a smile, Xu Shaoyin turns to cross the threshold, and their figures disappear. Yuqing takes back her eyes and shouts in the yard.
"Come on, come on! People come out for me. The yard hasn't been cleaned for many days. Come and clean it carefully for me today. "
At that time, there were only three big words "yunkelai" written on the paper. Only by looking at the name, it was an inn. When Xu Shaoyin got to the back door, he asked the housekeeper for the location of the inn, and they went straight to the inn.
When they got to the place, they got out of the carriage. There was only a two-story house in front of them. There was a shabby and even shabby banner at the door, on which it could be seen that it was yunkelai. Xu Shaoyin frowned and walked in slowly. Muyun paid the driver's car money and then followed.
To be honest, this place is very remote. There is almost no one around. The house only has a place in the small crack between the two laneways.
It's OK for Liu to be able to find this place. You should know that if you didn't look at this place carefully, you wouldn't really associate him with the inn.
