Rural Female Detective - Chapter 92

“I didn’t expect that you would have animals in your house. I thought you didn’t like animals.”

“What makes you think that?” Gongsun Xiao asked doubtfully.

Song Yao said: “The heavens are forbidding this.”

Gongsun Xiao: “Don’t forget, just now, it was me who saved you. It’s fine if you don’t know how to repay my kindness, but you’re even making fun of me. You’re really going too far.”

Song Yao laughed: “I was just joking, why would I take it seriously.”

“Tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk …” Gongsun Xiao was helpless: “I have never seen a woman like you before, smart, stupid, stupid, transparent, stubborn yet also stubborn. You even want to lick your fingers while eating candied fruits. You have really impressed me. ”

“So what if you’re licking your fingers? I wash my hands every day, and I don’t do anything else. They’re pretty clean, and there’s no poison …”

Gongsun Xiao was about to speak when Song Yao suddenly said: “Finger … “Poison …”

“Wait …” She thought for a moment and asked, “Did you find any poisonous substance on Young Master Li’s corpse?”

Gongsun Xiao shook his head: “I have not reported anything.”

Song Yao nodded her head, and said to him: “Make Tang Bai go over there and ask his about this, especially the matter with your finger, you have to check carefully, and also bring Young Noble Li’s subordinate over, I have some things I want to ask her.”

Gongsun Xiao sneered, “Give me another order?”

Song Yao was stupefied for an instant, and said helplessly: “Can I command you? “Master Hou!”

“Stop!” Gongsun Xiao said: “In the future, just call me by my name.

“What are you afraid of? I don’t eat people.” Song Yao said.

“You call them cannibals …” He rolled up his sleeves and said, “Look, goosebumps are about to fall onto the ground.”

“Yi ~” Song Yao looked at him and said, “If you can get goosebumps like that, then how many times am I supposed to call you?”

Gongsun Xiao: “…”

Song Yao: “I’m just joking … “That’s what I’m asking you to do. Can you help me look into this matter?”

“Sure …” Gongsun Xiao agreed straightforward. Before Song Yao could even be happy, he heard him say, “But I have a condition. I never do things that do not benefit myself. Do you understand?”

“…” In Song Yao’s heart, this is obviously what we need to do, okay? Why does it feel like it’s all on me now?

“What condition?” Song Yao asked.

Gongsun Xiao thought for a while and said: “I want to know, who exactly is the person that you dream about? What made you cry? ”

Song Yao was stunned.

For a moment, she didn’t know how to react.

“You … Why are you so interested in this? ” Song Yao asked.

Gongsun Xiao said: “This is the first time I’ve seen you sad, and I can feel an unforgettable sadness. I want to understand you, want to know how sad you are.”

“Why?” Song Yao blurted out.

This time, it was Gongsun Xiao who was silent.

The atmosphere was a bit awkward.

“Actually, I can’t say why, but I want to understand you. At least, I know why you’re sad, or if I can help you ease up a bit.”

“Why are you helping me?” Song Yao asked again.

Gongsun Xiao laughed: “Are we not friends? Isn’t this how friends should share good and bad fortune? ”

“However, there are some things that others cannot interfere in …” She sighed heavily. “But if you want to hear it, I can tell you, because it’s been a long, long time since anyone has told me that. For a long, long time, I’ve had to bear my own grief.”

“I will listen carefully.” “No,” he said.

Song Yao laughed: “Then before I listen, can you help me handle this matter? After all, it’s not like this case has nothing to do with you, is it? ”

Gongsun Xiao nodded: “Don’t worry.”

He shouted towards outside: “Tang Bai!”

Tang Bai pushed open the door and entered, cupped his fists and asked: “What orders do I have?”

Gongsun Xiao said: “Go and find the coroner and have his corpse examined. Then bring Young Noble Li’s maid, Mingyue, here, saying that we have something to ask of you.”

“This subordinate understands.”

Tang Bai accepted the order and left, the house became quiet once more.

“How long do you think Tang Bai will take?” Song Yao asked.

Gongsun Xiao replied: “Half an hour.”

“Ha …” Song Yao laughed: “Do you like listening to stories?”

“Depends on who told you.” Gongsun Xiao said.

“It seems that I am honored to have said that.” Song Yao declined to comment.

“That’s for sure. Until now, Zi Yanghou has not heard many stories from people.”

“If you don’t believe me, then it’s fake. I’m just telling you that I made up this story and it has nothing to do with me. Even if I’m sad, I’m only sad for the people in this story.”

“Hah.” Gongsun Xiao only laughed, and did not say much.

Song Yao said: “The story happened in a small town, in the town there was a person with the surname Lin, Master Lin was a High Scholar, maybe he just went silly from reading and gave birth to a man who valued women.”

“Oh?” Gongsun Xiao frowned.

Song Yao did not mind and continued: “He thinks that women are useless, and that giving birth to a girl is just a form of humiliation. She thinks that all of the misfortune she had afterwards was caused by her eldest son giving birth to a girl.”

“His eldest son was used to filial piety. His cold words, his sarcasm, and all his other malicious intentions were all taken in. He never fought back or complained.”

“The eldest son’s wife is also not good to talk about, but she also doesn’t want to lose the child because she has difficulty getting pregnant and this may be her only child. Thus, they decided to take all the pressure and raise this child. They treated this girl as a boy and had her practice martial arts at an early age.

“When the girl was twelve, she came into contact with a lot of other things and saw a lot of different people and a lot of different ways of life. When she got home, she told her parents that she wanted to dress up as a girl, wanted to be a happy girl, didn’t want to live so hard. ”

“Her parents naturally did not agree, so she caused a ruckus. She did not understand why she could not be a girl. Obviously, any other girl could have lived such a beautiful life. So she went against her parents, they let her go east, she went west, they let her practice kung fu, she went out to learn embroidery, needles pierced her fingers, and she refused to give up. Later on, she fell in love with someone and wanted to express her feelings to that person. If it was appropriate, they would be together. As a result, her little thoughts that were written on the paper were discovered by her parents and her father came to talk to her. ”

“That was the first time she was so hysterical. After so many years of suffering and unwillingness, she started spouting nonsense. She said all sorts of nasty things and then left home, planning to cut off all ties with her family.”

No one noticed her, nor did she have the mood to care about herself. She wanted to curse the heaven and earth, why was it so unfair? She had worked hard since she was young, and she had obviously tried her best to fulfill all of her parents’ demands.

She sat by the side of the bridge and waited quietly. She thought that as long as anyone came to look for her, she would forgive her parents and give up on being like others who had expressed their love for her. She would continue to painfully and earnestly be a good child who listened to her parents.

“But in the end, no one came to find her. She was completely disappointed, so she decided to go home and pack her things before she left this place that made her sad and went out on her own. ”

“However, she never thought that when she returned home, she would see the corpses of her parents.”

Gongsun Xiao’s hand that was holding onto the teacup trembled, and made a slight noise on the table. He asked: “How did this happen?”
