BXBX NOVEL Chapter 234: husband
By the time Xie Zhiwei arrived at Sibaozhai, it was already midnight.
There are people coming and going on the street, Taixue and Guozijian are out of school, and students are shopping in groups of bookstores and the Four Treasures Store of the Study. The next door to Sibaozhai is overcrowded, except for Sibaozhai, the door is closed.
Xie Mingcheng hadn\'t entered the Taixue, and after school was over, he was pulled over by some classmates, and he was standing at the door of Sibaozhai, who asked him, "Mingcheng, didn\'t you say that Xiangyun paper is sold here?" Is there any good stuff in this Sibaozhai? You lied to us if you didn\'t have any?"
Xie Mingcheng was also feeling weird when he saw the closed door. At this moment, Xie Zhiwei\'s carriage arrived.
Seeing the Zhulun chariot, Xie Mingcheng\'s classmates took two steps back one after another. Zhulun chariots have always been qualified only for nobles of a certain rank. These people said that they don\'t know who is behind this Sibaozhai Woolen cloth?
Xie Zhiwei got off the carriage, saw Xie Mingcheng, and hurriedly called out "Brother!"
"Big sister, why did you come in person? What\'s going on with this Sibaozhai? I brought my classmates to buy Xiangyun paper, but who knows, it\'s closed."
"Zi Mo, take out some of the Xiangyun notes I made yesterday and share them with the young master\'s classmates." After Xie Zhiwei ordered Zi Mo, he hurriedly apologized to Xie Mingcheng\'s classmates, "I\'m sorry, I just found out today. Something happened to this shop, and it made everyone waste a trip, I\'m really sorry, at the latest, it will open tomorrow, and by then, if you have time to come, as long as you are the classmate of the young master, you will have a discount."
Zi Mo took out a stack of fragrant cloud paper and asked Xie Mingxi\'s classmates to choose. The students from Taixue and Guozijian who were walking around next door smelled the fragrance, followed the scent, and saw the fragrant cloud paper in Zi Mo\'s hand at a glance. The color Or gorgeous, or elegant, fragrance and color and style matching, not bad at all, everyone is amazed.
"Girl, how do you sell this flower paper?" One of the students asked, "I can buy one for a tael of silver, is that okay?"
Zi Mo looked at Xie Zhiwei in embarrassment, Xie Zhi smiled and said, "Nurse Tong, tell everyone that this Xiangyun paper is sold exclusively at Sibaozhai. There is something in the store today, so we can\'t open the door for business. It will start tomorrow morning." For sale, the quantity is limited, first come first served."
"One person chooses one of these fragrant cloud papers and distributes them. If you like it, if you want to buy more, come back tomorrow!"
After finishing speaking, Xie Zhiwei entered the store, Tong Nunnery took the Xiangyun paper from Zi Mo, and shouted as she sent it out, "Sibaozhai\'s Xiangyun paper, everyone who sees it has a share, try it first It\'s a fresh one, come back tomorrow if you like it!
About twenty or thirty Xiangyun papers were sent out, some like peonies, some like peonies, some like green bamboos, some like cold snow, and so on. Those who got Xiangyun papers can\'t wait to hold them in their arms and never let go. , only sighed, what kind of strange woman in this world can come up with such a flower note, what kind of ingenuity.
Xie Zhiwei stepped into the door of Sibaozhai, and the inside has been cleaned up almost, and some broken ones have been repaired, only the shelves are half empty, and there is no replenishment for the time being, and no business can be done.
Through the courtyard, the coffin in the back room was also carried away and stopped at Yizhuang.
The shopkeeper Zhu\'s family led the two children to pack their luggage, slowly, and blindly killing time. Zhao Ammon did not urge him, he was talking with Zhangtai, asking about the situation in the store, and when he learned that the store only wrote one thousand taels of income in the account book for a year, he almost vomited blood.
Hearing that the eldest girl is coming, Zhao Ammonium hurriedly got up, came out with Zhang Tai, and greeted Xie Zhiwei.
Zi Mo hurriedly took the maid, spread cushions on the chair, invited the girl to sit down, and took out all the tea utensils. After a series of actions, a bowl of fragrant tea was handed to the girl.
Xie Zhiwei took a sip of tea before asking, "Tell me, what happened?"
"Returning to the girl, this is the waiter in the store. He said that he has been working in the store for more than ten years. When the eldest wife was there, he was doing it under shopkeeper Sun, and now he works with shopkeeper Zhu. The shopkeeper hanged himself the night before yesterday.”
Zhao An knew more things, and added some information, Xie Zhiwei knew something was wrong, and said, "Go and bring that woman over, I\'ll ask you a question."
Zhao Ammonium went to bring the woman over. She was dressed in filial piety, with white flowers on her hair, and kowtowed three times to Xie Zhiwei when she entered the door.
"You said that someone came to shopkeeper Zhu to make up the five thousand taels of silver that was missing from the account. Tell me, who is it?"
The woman thought for a while, "The man said that he was the nanny next to the county lord. When the woman served him tea, she took a look. There was a mole in the corner of the woman\'s eye, which looked fierce. She saw the man The woman glanced at her secretly, and stared at the civilian woman."
"What did she say?"
"She said that the debt can only be paid off unless she dies. Otherwise, the five thousand taels of silver must be filled up no matter what. The county head has the support of the emperor and the empress. Mr. Xie is the Minister of the Dali Temple of the third rank, and his father is the commander of the fourth rank, if he knew that the head of the family had squandered all the money in these years, he would have to send the whole family of women and children to prison."
Xie Zhiwei frowned, "Did shopkeeper Zhu tell you this, or did you overhear it yourself?"
The woman lowered her head and thought for a while, "The woman doesn\'t remember all of them. When the nanny talked to the head of the house, she didn\'t let the woman listen. The woman hid under the back window and listened for a while, but she didn\'t listen carefully, but These words were overheard by the servants."
Xie Zhiwei saw that what she said was unclear, so he didn\'t bother to get entangled, and asked, "The shopkeeper Zhu said, I allowed people to spend so much money before, and now I have to make up for it. Did he say this himself?"
"Yes, the head of the house told the women, ah, no, he whispered it when he was drinking."
Xie Zhiwei held the teacup, took a sip, pondered for a moment, then raised his head, and said to Zhao Ammonium, "Go to the Yamen of Shuntian Prefecture and tell the police that a murder case happened here."
The woman knelt on the ground with a plop, her face paler than her filial piety, "The county mistress, the women don\'t want to report to the officials."
"Why? Your man\'s death is unclear, and you didn\'t report it to the police. Could it be that you strangled him to death?""
"No, no, no, it\'s not a commoner\'s wife. How could a commoner\'s wife do such a thing to murder her husband!" The woman trembled in fright, "The men of the commoner\'s wife are all dead. If you report to the official, wouldn\'t you Extra problems arose, anyway, he would never survive again, and the woman still has two children to raise..."
Xie Zhiwei glanced at Nanny Tong who came in, and Nanny Tong turned and left.
"Then tell the truth!" Xie Zhiwei didn\'t show any sympathy for this woman, she picked up the tea cup and took a sip slowly.
