Liu Zhiyuan shook his head and said: "No! If there were people from other villages who often haunted Huahu Village, they would have been gossiped about by the people in the village. Only people in the village would not make people suspicious. Erniang , do you know who Yang Yuniang is very close to in the village? Don't say women, just men."

Chen Bing thought for a while and said: "I have never heard of it. Although Yang Yuniang is a widow, she has a good reputation in the village. However, if we want to talk about people who can make her fall in love, there are some, but , It’s just..." Chen Bing felt obviously embarrassed when he thought of this, and his face became a little ugly.

Liu Zhiyuan saw it, and although he didn't understand why, he still felt a little uneasy in his heart, and asked hurriedly: "What are you thinking of?"

Chen Bing nodded helplessly and said: "Yang Yuniang likes Mei Decai, a carpenter in the village, very much. She has expressed her admiration for Mei Decai many times."

Liu Zhiyuan said: "Mei Decai? Since Yang Yuniang loves him in her heart, could it be that the person she lives with is Mei Decai?"

Chen Bing shook his head and said, "I guess I don't know how to do it."

Liu Zhiyuan was confused and asked: "Why?"

Chen Bing sighed and whispered shyly: "Because Mei Decai proposed marriage to my father twice, he, the person he admires in his heart is me, not Yang Yuniang, so it is unlikely that the person living with Yang Yuniang will marry me." It's him."

After hearing this, Liu Wuji secretly thought that it was bad, but he still bowed his head and stood silently.@*~~Liu Zhiyuan's face became extremely ugly. He laughed a few times, and then his expression became very nervous. He hurriedly asked Chen Bing: "What about you? Then your father probably didn't agree to your marriage with Mei Decai?"

Chen Bing shook his head and said with a smile: "I am the apple of my father's eye. I hold it in my hand for fear of falling, and hold it in my mouth for fear of melting. He loves me very much. He said he doesn't want me to get engaged to someone else early. , so my father is very cautious about my marriage. Although Mei Decai has good carpentry skills and is quite good at business, he is very unsteady and slippery. In addition, his father is lazy, loves gambling, and is extremely prodigal. , so my father rejected his request. Therefore, I did not get engaged to him."

Liu Zhiyuan breathed a long sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Listen to what you said, this Mei Decai is definitely not a lifelong lover. After all, Jiang is still old and hot. Your father is well-informed, so naturally he will look down on him. Your father did the right thing by not betrothing you to him." Liu Zhiyuan was in a very good mood at this time, and he started to flatter Chen Xingzu indiscriminately.

Chen Bing felt happy, rolled his eyes at Liu Zhiyuan, and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, stop flattering me. It's just that you refused a marriage, so there's no need to make a fuss. The soup is almost ready. Wait for it. Let it cool for a while, then you can serve it to Yang Yuniang to drink."

Liu Zhiyuan nodded and said: "Qian Zhongyi is good at martial arts. My yard is very safe. Let Yang Yuniang rest here for the next few days. Firstly, it will be convenient for you to come to see her. Secondly, if she is allowed to go back alone, Well, maybe the person who poisoned her is sneaking back and poisoning Yang Yuniang again."

Chen Bing praised: "Your suggestion is very good. I have thought about it. In addition to seeing her tomorrow, I will also cook you a dish you have never eaten before. If you think it is delicious, please invite me in De Xianlou should promote it well."

Liu Zhiyuan got excited and asked hurriedly: "Tell me quickly, what kind of dish is it? What kind of ingredients are used? If necessary, I will pay Zhongyi to do it now!"

Chen Bing smiled and said: "You are impatient even before this is done. It is not a complicated dish. This Huahu Village is a fishing village, and the most common ingredient is fish. So I plan to make one tomorrow. The fish is for you to eat. However, you must have never seen how to make this dish."

Liu Zhiyuan was curious and said: "There are only two ways to make fish, steaming or boiling soup. What other ways are there? There is a lot of water in the two Zhejiang roads, there are many fish and shrimps, and there are also many good eaters. I’ve never seen other ways of doing it. I’m very curious, could Erniang tell me what kind of fish you cook?”

But Chen Bing waved his hand and said with a smile: "Hey, of course I can't tell you now. Let's keep it secret. You will know when you eat it tomorrow. Don't worry, I will definitely give you a good meal." After saying that, Chen Bing Bing put the cooked decoction in the medicine pot into a small bowl, then put the decoction and beef tendon juice on the tray, picked up the tray and said: "This medicine is also good, for you and me.

Just bring it to Yang Yuniang to drink."

Liu Zhiyuan nodded in agreement. As soon as Chen Bing walked to the door, Liu Zhiyuan stopped and slapped the table with his palm, immediately smashing the inkstone on the table into pieces. Chen Bing was startled, thinking something had happened. It was a big deal, so he hurriedly asked: "Zhixing! What's wrong with you?"...

Liu Zhiyuan shook his head and said: "I was almost deceived by the person who poisoned me. You, me and Wuji all thought that the poisonous mushrooms were placed at the door, and there were many people walking by the door, so they must be visible. .But what if this basket of mushrooms was opened from inside the house and put outside? Then who would be able to see who did it?"

Chen Bing was stunned for a moment, then realized what he was doing and said hurriedly: "Ah! I understand, what you mean is..."

Liu Zhiyuan said: "That's right! The person who poisoned her was the one who was living in concubine with Yang Yuniang!"

Chen Bing said thoughtfully: "You are absolutely right. Now there are two points: one is the clothes and the shoes Wuji found beside the bed. The other is the dead chickens and dogs in this house. You said , this poisoner poisoned chickens and dogs to death is purely unnecessary, does that also mean that this person is also among the people on the flowing water table today?"

Liu Zhiyuan nodded and said: "Yes, originally he thought that Yang Yuniang would definitely die after eating the mushrooms, so he came to eat on the running water mat without any scruples. But to his surprise, Yang Yuniang only ate half of it. When he saw Yang Yuniang, she also came to eat When he was sitting, he must have been panicking. He wanted to understand the reason, so he hurried back to Yang Yu's mother's house, dug out the remaining mushrooms, chopped them into pieces, and fed them to the chickens and dogs, until they were poisoned and died. After that, they dragged the chickens and dogs into the latrine, and finally cleaned up the house briefly. After doing this, they left Yang Yu's parents' house. Huh! I didn't know to take away my clothes and shoes when I left. It’s really confusing.”

Chen Bing also nodded and said: "You are right. Now if you want to know who is living in concubine with Yang Yuniang, you can only ask her herself.@*~~" Liu Wuji is very understanding of human nature, so he stepped forward to take Chen Bing's hand. Holding the tray in her hand, she nodded slightly to Chen Bing. After Chen Bing thanked her, she took a step away and stood side by side with Liu Zhiyuan. She knew that Liu Zhiyuan was cold on the outside and hot on the inside, so she said, "You don't have to worry too much, as long as she eats my food on time." Prescription, the remaining poison will definitely be removed within five days. Then it won't be too late to ask her who she is living with. Come on, this medicine will be cold if you don't remove it."

After saying that, the three of them walked through the central courtyard and entered the west wing. In the room where a banquet was held nearby, Ah Wu and Ah Liu were still eating wine non-stop, while Fang Mengshan stood in front of the door.

He kept poking his head out, looking very sneaky. When he saw Chen Bing and Liu Zhiyuan entering the next room again, he retracted his head, shook his head, closed his eyes slightly, and whispered to himself thoughtfully: "

Looking at it like this, Er Niang seems to have an unusual relationship with this man. How did she get involved with this man? And who is this man? Hey, I think I have seen him somewhere.

.”

Although Ah Wu drank a little too much, his mind was clear. He looked at Fang Mengshan's slightly changed expression, hurriedly pushed away the wine glass that Ah Liu stretched out, walked to Fang Mengshan, and whispered: "Brother Mengshan, there are so many people just now.

It’s not my place to ask, what’s going on in this yard?”

Fang Mengshan still shook his head and said, "I don't know either. When I was eating dinner outside, I asked the people who came with me. Some said they were good people from Huzhou, some said they were locals from Changxing, and some even said they were Xiu.

One of the good people from the state, an old man, even said that the people who gave porridge in some neighboring villages were also people from this courtyard. They were all talking nonsense after drinking. Naturally, these words were all unbelievable. Later, you and I entered the courtyard.

I knew there was another banquet held in this house, and I asked Chen Tingyao if he knew the owner here, but he refused to know. But look at the way he walked with his head held high when he went to say goodbye, it doesn't look like he doesn't know him? Look again.

The second mother-in-law of the Chen family is in and out of the man at the same time. This relationship must be extraordinary!"

Ah Wu said in Fang Mengshan's ear: "Everywhere in this yard is weird. How can it be that the main house has not been built until the side rooms have been repaired? Also, from the measurement of the yard to the raising of the beams, it only took four people in total."

Duo Yue, this has been built too fast and is too unreasonable. Do you think there will be any problems?"

Fang Mengshan slapped Ah Wu on the forehead and cursed: "There's a problem! You useless thing, stop being suspicious. Everyone under this sun is alive. If there is a problem,

, they’ve all been sunburned to ashes, and you’re still eating like shit!”

Ah Wu shrank his head and said aggrievedly: "I can't.

I said that because you looked worried just now. It’s all up to me. By the way, Brother Mengshan and Brother Liulang have been staying next door for more than an hour, and they haven’t seen him come out yet. He is my favorite.

He is a wine drinker. Today, he can eat as much as he wants with this fine wine, but he is indifferent. Instead, he keeps guarding this little widow. Something is wrong, very wrong."

Fang Mengshan was confused and anxious at this time. Hearing this, he became angry. He raised his voice and said coldly: "I didn't know! Brother Liulang didn't know what he had done with that little widow, and he stayed to take care of her. I think

He was also poisoned."

Ah Wu was startled and asked quickly: "Ah, Brother Liulang, Brother Liulang is also poisoned? No, I was leaning against him tightly when we were in the next room. I, oh, it hurts, I, I

Could it be that he is also poisoned?" After Ah Wu said this, he felt something was wrong all over his body and it hurt wherever he touched it.

Fang Mengshan was so angry that he kicked Ah Wu on the butt and cursed: "You fool! I said Brother Liulang was poisoned by that woman, you useless little chick.

! Brother, I will take you to Baixiang Tower to play with you someday and try some meat, and you will understand."

Ah Wu couldn't understand what he was thinking, and he was thinking whether he was poisonous or not, he was poisoned? Brother Liulang was poisoned, and you still scolded me. I think you are the fool! Humph! Why is Baixianglou not Baixianglou? , Can this meals be delicious for my mother? Awu is angry and does not argue with Fang Mengshan. He grabbed a chicken leg on the table and stuffed it in his mouth. While drinking the wine, he slowly slurped the fish in the bowl, sighing in his heart: "Hey, it's better for you, Ah Liu. You don't care about anything, you just know how to eat. Hum! I'll eat it too!"

After Chen Bing and the others entered the west wing, Zhang Liulang, who was usually taciturn, was the first to gather around him. He looked nervous and his already round face was even more distorted. He was holding a wet handkerchief in his hand. He thought it was for Yang Yuniang to wipe her sweat. After meeting Chen Bing, he hurriedly said: "Er Niang, you are here. Yu Niang keeps talking nonsense, please take a look."
