Delicate Flower - Chapter 40
[Chapter 40 Uncover]
Unconsciously, the light in the room dimmed, and Yu Tang realized that the sun had already turned westward.
She got up, rubbed her slightly sore eyes, and went out to call a servant to ask, “Have Master Yu and Young Master Yu not come back?”
“No!” The servant replied, and Yu Tang saw Tong Er. The shopkeeper came in.
He is very similar to the shopkeeper Tong Da, not in facial features, but in temperament, which gives people the feeling of being very friendly and easy to talk.
The owner of the inn kept the accounts at the counter.
He asked the owner of the inn: “Is the proprietress there? How is Miss Yu’s family? I’ve been thinking about coming to ask, but I’m too busy with business today, so I can’t get out.”
There are differences between men and women.
The owner of the inn was embarrassed to visit Yu Tang, and said, “Is it all right? I heard from the second in the shop that Miss Yu’s family went out to buy some things and came back – you can still go shopping, most likely. “But if it’s specific, he doesn’t know. After saying this, he asked someone to call the proprietress to come out.
The proprietress smiled and said: “Okay, okay! It’s just that the spirit is not very good. However, anyone who doesn’t eat this day will have no energy!”
“That’s good.” The shopkeeper Tong Er said with a sigh of relief. “Our third master already knows that I used his famous post to invite a doctor for Miss Yu. If the third master asks about the situation of the Yu family, I will know how to answer it!” Then he asked about Yu Wen and Yu. Come from afar, knowing that the two of them went out early in the morning and have not returned, he said: “Then I will not visit Miss Yu, Master Yu and Young Master Yu are back, please tell them for me, I will come back tomorrow. Visit them.” The
boss and the proprietress responded in succession and sent shopkeeper Tong Er out.
Yu Tang was too embarrassed to go out to say hello, and turned back to his room.
While holding the lantern, Yu Wen came back first.
He looked tired, and when the boss greeted him, his smile was a little reluctant. He said politely to the boss and went back to the room.
When Yu Tang heard the movement, she went to her father’s house.
“Sit down!” The tiredness in Yu Wen’s eyes seemed to come from the bottom of his heart. He stroked his forehead and said, “If you don’t come to me, I’m going to see you. How are you today? Does your stomach still hurt? What are you doing in the inn alone when we’re not here?”
Yu Tang answered one by one,
then poured a cup of hot tea for his father, then sat down beside his father and said, “Did you encounter something? What?”
Yu Wen nodded, holding the tea cup without drinking tea, but staring blankly at Yu Tang, his eyes were deep and solemn.
Yu Tang’s heart skipped a beat.
According to their previous plan, in order not to attract attention, her father went to investigate Lu Xin’s matter to see if there was anything strange about Lu Xin’s death, while Yu Yuan went to the master surnamed Qian to see if he could help The “Pine Creek Fishing Hidden Picture” has another layer.
Now that Yu Yuan hasn’t come back, I don’t know how the master surnamed Qian will reply to Yu Yuan. Yu Wen’s place is definitely not good news.
She held her breath, waiting for her father to figure out how to tell her about it.
Yu Wen was silent for a long time, and then he said: “A Tang, you are right! Your Uncle Lu’s death, I’m afraid it really answers your guess!”
After receiving such information, Yu Tang felt more at ease.
She said, “Could it be that Uncle Lu was killed by someone?”
“I don’t know if he was killed by someone, but he shouldn’t have died like this.” Yu Wen told Yu Tang about what he had found. Come on, “Before your Uncle Lu died, he still owed the inn’s room and the alley’s food restaurant’s drink money, and he just got in touch with the newly appointed Censor of Education, and I heard from the inn’s owner that he had already got the It is recommended by the imperial censor that you will go to study at the Imperial College in the capital in two days…”
Yu Tang frowned and said, “Could it be Lu Xiucai bragging?”
“Whether it’s bragging or not, it’s true that he’s going to the capital.” Yu Wen said, “He also found several acquaintances to collect money, and wanted to settle the money for the accommodation and wine. The inn is okay, the owner of the small restaurant listens. Said he was going to leave, for fear that he would sneak away without paying the drink money, and he kept sending his son to follow your Uncle Lu. The owner of the small restaurant said that his son saw your Uncle Lu returning to the inn to rest that night. My uncle was called out to play in the middle of the night. The restaurant owner’s son didn’t go back until the second watch was played. He couldn’t hold it any longer.
“Who knew that your Uncle Lu was drowned in the early morning the next morning. Peach Blossom River not far from the inn.
“I also asked the innkeeper, and the innkeeper swore that he didn’t find your Uncle Lu going out.”
Yu Tang shuddered.
Yu Wen also looked sad.
Both of them felt that the situation was not good, and neither dared to continue the investigation and startled the snake, nor did they dare to pretend to be confused and wait until disaster struck.
For a while, the father and daughter were out of ideas.
Yu Wen had to comfort himself: “Maybe we’re thinking too much, we’ll talk about it when A Yuan comes back.”
People who do business like Master Qian are usually afraid of making faces.
Today Yu Yuan went over, and he didn’t bring the painting with him. Instead, he invited a friend who had a very good personal relationship with Master Qian as an intermediary, and tried to ask Master Qian to help him with this.
As for whether it will succeed or not.
Seeing that his father was a little dejected, Yu Tang could only say: “Dad, you haven’t had dinner yet, have you? I asked the lady boss to order the food. Today, the fish was fried in the
restaurant , and I could smell the fragrance while sitting in the room.”
The inn can either package meals or order a la carte.
Yu Wen and the others didn’t know how things would work out. Without a meal, they could only order one.
“Let’s wait for A Yuan to come back!” Yu Wen said timidly, Yu Yuan came back.
He was in high spirits, and said happily, “Uncle, Master Qian asked us to come over early tomorrow morning. Only after we have seen the painting can we give us a letter of approval.”
This is also good news.
Yu Wen cheered up, but Yu Yuan still saw the clue.
Yu Wen didn’t hide it from him, and told Yu Yuan what happened.
Yu Yuan looked serious and said, “Then we have to be more careful tomorrow.”
Yu Wen sighed and said, “Let’s eat! Do your best and obey the destiny. We will talk about tomorrow’s affairs tomorrow.”
Yu Tang hurriedly ordered dinner.
After dinner, we originally planned to go to Xiaoheyu Street Night Market, but everyone lost their mood and went back to their rooms early.
Yu Tang continued to be the first flower, and didn’t fall asleep until he heard the three-warning drum.
When she woke up the next day, she heard Yu Wen talking to the shopkeeper, and Yu Yuan had already left the door with the painting.
However, this time he came back very early.
I came back before lunch and left the painting with Master Qian.
He lowered his voice with bright eyes and said to Yu Wen and Yu Tang: “Master Qian has seen the painting and said that at least three layers of this painting can be uncovered. He asked us how many layers to uncover. I thought that I would trouble him once. You’re welcome, let him uncover several layers, but it will cost five taels more than what I said before, and I won’t be able to get the painting until tomorrow afternoon.”
Yu Wen felt down after learning about Lu Xin yesterday .
Yan simply replied “Yes” and took the money directly to Yu Yuan.
Yu Yuan took the money and went out again.
