Chapter 853 - Flickering
Chapter 853 flickered.
Yao's chief didn't give people a sense of amazement, but she felt like everyone was beautiful, and after she came in, she poured a blessing for everyone, and then stood aside and waited for questioning.
Ye Xing glanced at Yao, and then asked, "How much does the young lady know about that Xiaomei?" ”
Young Lady Yao's face changed slightly, and her eyes were a little dazed, but she still hurriedly replied: "That Xiaomei is just a maid in the house, and I don't know much about her." ”
Ye Xing sighed, and then asked, "Since the young lady doesn't know much about Xiaomei, why did you give Xiaomei a jade bracelet?" ”
Yao was a little nervous, she hurriedly explained: "It's nothing, it's just a bracelet, if you give it to the next person, it's nothing, I think it must be Xiaolan who told King Daming, that girl is really jealous, I gave the bracelet to Xiaomei and didn't give it to her, so she talked about it." ”
Yao's words were very contrary to her feeling of being a lady, but Ye Xing didn't care much about them, everyone has two sides, and everyone will unconsciously reveal their other person when they are nervous or excited.
This was not surprising to Ye Xing and them.
And Yao's reason is also very reasonable, the maids are all subordinates, and it is possible that they are very jealous, if the owner only gave Xiaomeiyu bracelet and did not give it to Xiaolan, then Xiaolan, who is also a maid, must be unfair in her heart.
Ye Xing didn't ask Yao many questions, and then let Yao leave.
Then, they went to the place where Xiaomei and Xiaolan used to live, and carefully searched Xiaomei's room, but there was nothing valuable in Xiaomei's room, let alone the bracelet that Yao gave Xiaomei.
Xiaolan saw that Ye Xing and the others kept rummaging, so she asked tentatively, "Are you looking for Xiaomei's money?" ”
Ye Xing nodded: "That's right, you said that your young lady gave her a bracelet, I want to know where." ”
After listening to Ye Xing's words, Xiaolan hurriedly replied: "You don't have to look for it, Xiaomei will immediately go out of the house and give it to her family whenever she has money." ”
"Her family?" Ye Xing was very surprised, because since they investigated this matter, they had never heard that Xiaomei still had family in Tai'an County.
Xiaolan nodded: "That's right, it's Xiaomei's family, but I've never seen it, and these are just what Xiaomei told me." ”
"What did she tell you?" Ye Xing suddenly felt that there was something strange in it, if Xiaomei still had a family, then Xiaomei had been dead for so many days, why didn't her family go to the yamen to identify the body?
Xiaolan thought about it carefully and said: "At that time, Xiaomei often went out of the house to send money to the family, I was curious and asked her a few words, Xiaomei answered a little unclear, only said that the family was poor and had to rely on her to support her, and if I asked again, she would not say." ”
"Then do you know where Xiaomei's home is?"
Xiaolan shook her head: "This Xiaomei has never said it." ”
After leaving Xiaomei's room, Ye Xing and the others went to see the second lady Zhang, who is now in her forties, but she is still very charming, and it is no wonder that she jumped from a little maid to a second lady back then.
A woman with capital is the easiest to succeed, of course, this capital is more often about appearance.
Now that the eldest lady is dead, although the second lady Zhang has not been corrected, her status in the family is not something that ordinary people can shake, so she really has a feeling of a noble lady at this time, she glanced at Ye Xing, and then asked, "I don't know if the adults have anything to ask?" ”
A pampered woman, even if she sees a big official, has a little arrogance in her heart.
Seeing this, Ye Xing was not surprised, but just asked, "Do you know much about that Xiaomei, what kind of person do you think she is?" ”
The second lady Zhang smiled a little disdainfully: "That Xiaomei, is a woman whose heart is higher than the sky and whose life is thinner than paper, she thinks that she has a little bit of beauty, so she wants to jump into wealth like me, hum, she thinks too simply." ”
Listening to the words of the second lady Zhang, she didn't seem to like Xiaomei very much, and she still knew Xiaomei very well, Ye Xing refused to let go, and continued to ask: "Why did the second lady say this?" ”
The second lady Zhang smiled coldly and said: "I'm not afraid of a few adults' jokes, that Xiaomei dresses herself up and often seduces our master when I'm away, she wants to be the second me, but then we have to see if she has this life!" ”
Xiaomei seduced Tong Yuan, this incident was indeed enough to shock Ye Xing and several of them, but Ye Xing still didn't believe the words of another woman who came out of a woman's mouth, because it was very likely that Tong Yuan was very angry and wanted to seduce Xiaomei, but was discovered by the second lady Zhang, so it was said that Xiaomei seduced Tong Yuanwai.
But in any case, this is a very important clue.
Ye Xing and the others have been looking for the motive of the killer Xiaomei, a little maid, who would have trouble with her, so the motive is very important, and after some inquiries in the Tong Mansion, they always found a little motive in the second lady.
The struggle between women, what if the second lady was afraid that Xiaomei would shake her status in this family, so she tried every means to go out of Xiaomei?
Although Xiaomei was naked at the scene of the crime, and there were signs of being raped, it was very likely that this was hired by the second lady, so that no one would suspect that she was a woman.
Although Ye Xing thought so, but he didn't say it, after listening to the words of the second lady, Ye Xing smiled slightly, and then said goodbye and left the Tong Mansion, they were originally going to ask the two sons of the Tong family and the young lady, but the two sons of the Tong family were not at home, and the young lady did not leave the second door, and there seemed to be nothing to ask.
At this time, Ye Xing had a very important thing to do, so they couldn't stay in Tongfu for a long time.
After returning to the county office, Ye Xing hurriedly went to find Fan Xinyuan, Fan Xinyuan saw Ye Xing coming to find him, he was a little proud, and asked, "Is there anything wrong with me?" ”
Ye Xing nodded: "There is one thing I would like to ask Miss Fan to help investigate." ”
Fan Xinyuan was naturally willing to help, but she still hesitated for a long time before nodding in agreement.
After Ye Xing saw Fan Xinyuan's agreement, he hurriedly said: "I heard that Xiaomei often gives the money she gets to her family, but I suspect that Xiaomei has no family here, she must have given the money to someone else, maybe it is her own friend, Miss Fan is very familiar in Tai'an County, so I want Miss Fan to investigate and see if anyone has seen Xiaomei go there after leaving Tongfu and meet whom." ”
