Chapter 11 Jia and his wife are too partial

Xiang was anxious to coax her son out of the one tael of silver, but she had no intention of arguing with her fourth daughter. Jia Silian patted her chest, thankful to have escaped, but when she turned around, she saw a person in the distance, slowly walking towards the door of her house, hands behind her back. ,

"father!"

Jia Silian recognized the person from a distance and called out to greet him. Jia Jincheng nodded when he saw his fourth daughter, and took out the hand behind his back, holding a piece of fat and thin pork belly.

"Today there was a murder in the west of the city. The commander asked me to go there..."

Jia Jincheng is a thin man with dark skin, a goatee, and drooped eyebrows. He has a sad face. He shakes his head when talking about the murder in the west of the city.

"I don't know how things have happened in the west of the city recently. There have been several murder cases in a row. The operators in each department were overwhelmed, so they called me to help..."

Jia Jincheng is from the Dongcheng Military and Horse Department. He should not be involved in the cases in the west of the city. There is only one case in which the daughter-in-law killed her husband's family. The bodies of a family of four are still on display in the examination room. Old Luo in the west of the city is busy. But he didn't come, so he asked the commander for instructions and asked him to help.

Jia Silian held up the meat and asked curiously,

"Dad, what case are you examining?"

Jia Jincheng glanced at his daughter and responded slowly,

"It's a case of burglary and murder..."

Jia Jincheng is usually taciturn, and he is in the work of a widower. People who know him feel a little unlucky when he talks about it. His family members are also afraid of the bloody scene, and they rarely ask about it. Only the fourth daughter, who is naturally bold, likes to ask about it. As time went by, Jia Jincheng only talked about official matters with his fourth daughter...

"...The thief originally wanted to break into the house, but it happened that the male owner of the room went out on business, leaving only the female owner and the three-year-old child at home. When he was rummaging through the belongings, he was discovered by the female owner, and the female owner screamed. , he became murderous and stabbed the hostess to death with a sharp knife. The three-year-old child was awakened by his mother's screams and started crying, but he was also stabbed to death... This thief was ruthless and ruthless. Have mercy, mother and son, one was hit by seventeen knives and the other was hit by eight knives, both in the chest and abdomen, so they are determined to kill!"

Jia Silian's face was full of anger when she heard this,

"There is such a cruel person, father... has the thief been caught?"

Jia Jincheng shook his head,

"The bodies of the mother and son were discovered after the male master returned home on the third day and reported it to the police. The admiral had already issued a sea arrest document, asking the prefectures and prefectures around the capital to cooperate in the arrest. Everyone escaped. It will be difficult to hold it!"

He has been in this business for nearly twenty years. Any case involving fraud will not be a small case. If he meets a diligent Shangguan who is willing to work hard to investigate the case, he can investigate five or six cases out of ten. Those who hang around and only care about pleasing the superiors and are unwilling to do practical things with peace of mind will be lucky if they can break one or two out of ten!

This kind of murder case is the most difficult to handle. Ye Heifenggao doesn't even have a personal identification card. He can only get a rough idea of ​​the murderer's appearance and height. Finding him is like looking for a needle in a haystack. It's even more difficult!

This case is probably going to disappear!

As the father and daughter talked, they went home. When they entered the gate, they met Xiang Shi coming out. When they saw the fourth daughter, her eyebrows were raised and she was about to yell, when Si Lian hurriedly said,

"Mom, did you find something?"

Xiang was stunned, glanced at her husband with a guilty conscience, immediately turned her mouth, changed into a smile and said to her husband,

"Master, are you back?"

Don't let the boss know that you got a tael of silver!

Jia Jincheng nodded and asked casually as he walked inside,

"What are you looking for?"

Xiang glared at her fourth daughter from behind her husband and replied,

"It's just a little thing about needlework and thread. I'm thinking that it's not serious for these girls to run around outside every day. It's better to do needlework at home, so that when you get married in the future, you won't be disliked by your husband's family!"

Speaking of this, Jia Jincheng looked at his wife with disgust,

"How about your sewing skills that you can teach your daughters?"

Xiangshi smiled and said,

"My needlework is not good, but Mrs. Wang's needlework next door is good. Why not ask some girls to learn from her..."

Jia Jincheng nodded,

"This is a good idea..."

After saying that, he turned around and looked at Silian,

"It's not bad to let a few young ones do needlework at home. When it comes to setting up a stall, just ask Sanlian to follow you!"

Although women from poor families are not particular about things, it is always not good for a woman to be too public. Sanlian has already decided on a family and will be getting married soon, so she is not afraid of this!

Xiang Shi nodded, but then looked around. Then he remembered that there were two missing girls at home. He raised his hand and gave Si Lian a kiss.

"Snapped……"

"Damn girl, you know how to play. Where did your two girls go? Why don't you go find them quickly!"

Xiang Shi remembered what he had done before, and the blow was so fast and hard that Si Lian felt a sharp pain in her vest and almost screamed. She was afraid that Xiang Shi would strike again, so she couldn't. If I dare to say more, I can only endure the pain and run out.

Jia Jincheng didn't care how his wife beat his daughter, and asked her again,

"Where's Lao Qi?"

Xiang responded,

"It's in the house..."

Jia Jincheng nodded, reached out and touched his arms. While Xiang was waiting eagerly, he took out a dozen copper coins and gave five to her.

"I went on a business trip today and got some reward money. I'll give you these..."

Xiang hurriedly stretched out his hand to take it, but his eyes were fixed on the remaining copper plates. Jia Jincheng hummed with a straight face,

"These few copper coins are enough for my family for two days, you have to save some!"

When Xiang saw him putting the copper plate in his arms again, he responded with a look of reluctance,

"Master, this little copper is not enough!"

Jia Jincheng still said with a straight face,

"Didn't you bring back a piece of meat? It's enough to eat in the past few days!"

It is extremely rare for a poor family to eat meat. This is also done by Jia Wu. Although he does not receive much salary from the yamen, fortunately, when a murder occurs, when he goes to do an autopsy and investigation, the victim will always give Xie Yin privately. Today, the male head of the family Having been doing business abroad for many years, he has some wealth. The thief came into the house before and was so panicked after the murder that he ran away without daring to look closely. The man of the house lost his wife and children, but he kept his belongings.

Another thing Jia Fuzuo didn't mention to his daughter was that the mistress of the house was raped and then killed after she broke into a burglary. Not to mention her death was in a very miserable state, her clothes were disheveled and her skin was exposed. Naturally, he wanted to do an autopsy. I went to inspect the clothes, and the husband gave his wife a lot of money for her reputation, including one or two pieces of silver. Only Jia Jincheng knew his wife's virtue and did not dare to leak anything, so he exchanged the silver for copper coins on the way. I hid some in a secret place and only took a few dozen home.

Xiang pretended to be unwilling on her face, but she was secretly happy in her heart. She was holding the one tael of silver she had just coaxed out of her son's hands in her arms!

She had already told her son not to tell his father about this matter, only their mother and mother knew about it, but...

Xiang looked back at the door and saw her fourth daughter leading her fifth and sixth daughters in. The fat on her face shook.

"We have to find a way to silence the fourth girl!"

The meat Jia Wu had at home that day was a piece of fat and thin pork belly. Xiang cut it into fine cubes and mixed it with cabbage to stew it in a pot. The diced meat was only about the size of a fingernail, so it was difficult to mix it into the vegetables. I looked for it, but there was always some oil star stuck on it. The whole family ate it with gusto, especially Jia Youchuan, the seventh child, whose head almost fell into the bowl. Jia Jincheng coughed when he saw this,

"Old Qi, what are you doing?"

Jia Youchuan replied without raising his head,

"Dad, I'm looking for meat!"

Jia Jincheng didn't respond when he heard the words, but just lowered his head to eat the rice. Jia Liulian saw that his brother was not scolded for picking meat, so he hurriedly followed him and rummaged through the dishes with his chopsticks.

"Snapped……"

Jia Jincheng didn't move, but Xiang's chopsticks hit the back of Jia Laoliu's hand with a sound, and the back of Jia Laoliu's hand turned red immediately.

"Mom, why...why did you hit me?"

There was a cry in Jia Laoliu's voice, and it was obvious that he was in severe pain. Xiang Shi glared at her and said,

"Girl, why are you so greedy? Do you still have any rules?"

Jia Laoliu started to cry and pointed at Jia Laoqi who was still rummaging vigorously and said,

"My younger brother also fell in love, why did you only hit me and not him?"

Xiang responded,

"He is your brother, why do you argue with your brother?"

Jia Laoliu cried even more after hearing this, but Jia Jincheng lowered his face and shouted,

“If you want to eat, eat it; if you don’t want to eat it, go ahead!”

Jia Liulian didn't dare to say a word after hearing this. She held back her tears and lowered her head to eat.

After the meal, Sanlian led the sisters to the kitchen to wash the dishes. In order to save lamp oil, they naturally did not know how to light the lamp. They just asked the youngest Liulian to heat up the hot water. Sanlian, Silian and Wu Lian used the firelight to wash the dishes and clean the kitchen. Liu Lian still looked angrily at the light in the main room and muttered in a low voice,

"Father and mother are just partial. They care about Lao Qi in everything!"

Si Lian and Wu Lian glanced at her without saying anything. Only San Lian sighed quietly.

"My parents gave birth to six of us sisters in a row, and we only have one younger brother. He is the sparkle of our Jia family. It is common sense to favor him..."

Jia Liulian hadn't spoken yet. Silian had the most upright temperament. Hearing the words, he responded,

"The seventh child is spoiled by his mother..."

Then he told what happened outside today, and finally said,

"With such pampering and pampering, I'm afraid that the Jia family's fireworks won't reach him..."

Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by Sanlian,

"Fourth sister, don't talk nonsense..."

After a pause, he sighed again and said,

"After all, we are not young anymore. Even Liulian can't stay at home for a few more years. If he survives for a few more days, he will be a married person. From now on, his parents will be responsible for him, good or bad. !”

Wulian sneered and replied,

"Third sister, you will be better off if you get married. We are all watching what happens to the eldest sister and the second sister!"
