Chapter 177 Uncle Jiang asked me to stay away from you
[The host thinks it is correct, this is a murder.]
Jiang Yueyang snorted in a tone of astonishment. "I knew it. A young, wealthy woman suddenly dies, and happens to have a newly married husband. It's most likely murder for money. TV dramas have played it out so many times."
The funeral procession had already passed by. Jiang Yueyang took one last look and asked Qingming to continue to the destination.
Little did he know that there was a tail following him openly.
Qingming knew that someone was following him, but he ignored it because it was Qin Shi, the Shaoqing of the Dali Temple.
I guess he wanted to clarify what he just said.
Jiang Yueyang asked when she had nothing else to do: "Xiaogua, tell me about Madam Ruan."
When Ruan was eleven, her parents died, and she barely made a living by collecting herbs in the mountains. Perhaps God took pity on her, a lonely and helpless woman, and allowed her to dig up a ginseng.
[Ginseng?] Jiang Yueyang asked curiously, [Is ginseng that easy to find? It makes me want to go into the mountains and take a look.]
[Host, are you still short of that little bit of ginseng? ]
[I don't need it, I just want to experience the feeling of being possessed by the European Emperor.]
Qin Shi:? Possessed by the European Emperor?
system:【……】
The system continued: [Madam Ruan sold ginseng for one hundred taels. With this one hundred taels, she started a snack business. Later, the business grew bigger and bigger, and she even opened a restaurant.
Three years ago, she opened a restaurant in Beijing, the "Ruyi Restaurant" that specializes in home-style dishes.
[Ruyi Tower?] Jiang Yueyang showed a puzzled expression, [Why do I feel like I've seen this name somewhere before?]
Ruyi Tower is just opposite Qingfeng Tower.
After the system reminded him, Jiang Yueyang suddenly understood and said "Oh".
Opposite Qingfeng Tower is a small restaurant, and most of the customers are ordinary people.
With Qingfeng Tower in front of her, Jiang Yueyang had never paid attention to Ruyi Tower, let alone eaten there.
The system continued: ["Ruyi Tower" may not be as good as "Qingfeng Tower," but business is still pretty good. After a year of hard work, Madam Ruan has established a firm foothold in the capital.]
It was also at this time that she met her son-in-law, Master Qi Yuqi.
At first, Madam Ruan was wary of Qi Yu who suddenly appeared beside her.
After all, it is always suspicious when a man of unknown origin approaches you for no reason.
However, Qi Yu was born with a good appearance, good conversation, and had some insights into doing business.
After a few interactions, Madam Ruan's guard gradually subsided.
Later, Qi Yu even risked his life to block a fatal knife for Madam Ruan.
At this point, Madam Ruan fell deeply in love with Qi Yu.
Little did they know that the so-called meeting, knowing each other, staying together, and risking their lives to save each other were all planned by Qi Yu.
Jiang Yueyang sighed, "No wonder Madam Ruan was deceived. That Qi Yu was gambling with his life!"
[Otherwise, why do they say that people who accomplish great things are most likely ruthless?]
Jiang Yueyang nodded in agreement. Qi Yu was indeed a ruthless person. He was ruthless to himself and to Lady Ruan as well!
After he married Madam Ruan, he could have used other means to defraud Madam Ruan of her property, but he chose the most cruel method.
"What happened next? How did he kill Lady Ruan?" Jiang Yueyang asked in a deep voice.
System: [Madam Ruan is allergic to milk, but she doesn't know it. Qi Yu also discovered by chance that she felt uncomfortable after eating milk-based ice cream. After multiple experiments, he confirmed that she would experience heart palpitations after drinking milk.
So, one night, he tricked Madam Ruan into drinking a large bowl of milk by saying that drinking more milk was good for the body.
Then, after a while, Madam Ruan died of a heart attack.
The next day, Qi Yu's crying attracted the neighbors.
He cried and said that when he woke up he found that Mrs. Ruan was dead, so he asked his neighbor to call a doctor for him.
Madam Ruan's sudden death inevitably aroused suspicion.
So someone secretly reported the case to the authorities, but the coroner did not find any signs of homicide on Madam Ruan's body.
Madam Ruan did not hide any poisonous things in her home, and Qi Yu had never bought any poisonous medicine.
Therefore, the government closed the case as Madam Ruan had a sudden illness.
Jiang Yueyang sighed. "Although I really want to scold the investigators for being useless, I can't really blame them. Here, without a machine, it's really hard to tell if someone died from an allergy."
[Host, don't you intend to take care of it? ]
How to manage it?
The system did not answer. It is difficult to overturn a case like this where there is no witness or physical evidence and the real cause of death cannot be found.
Hearing this, Qin Shi, who had been following all the way, turned his horse around and chased after the funeral procession.
He wanted to reinvestigate the case of Madam Ruan and would never let the murderer go unpunished.
But how to get the murderer to confess?
Given the murderer's ruthlessness, torture would definitely not work.
Never mind, let’s catch the person first!
***
More than a quarter of an hour later, Jiang Yueyang arrived at the place where she and Lu Yunting had agreed to meet.
Before the carriage stopped, Lu Yunting came forward and helped her down from the carriage.
As soon as Jiang Yueyang landed, she asked, "Lu Yunting, what did my father say to you?"
"Uncle Jiang told me to stay away from you."
"Did he give you a large sum of money?"
Lu Yunting: “???”
At this time, the system said speechlessly: [Host, have you watched too many TV dramas? Besides, this is not modern times.]
【Tsk! Can't I just ask?】
Although Lu Yunting didn't know why Jiang Yueyang asked that, he still answered honestly: "Uncle Jiang didn't give me any money."
"Then how did you answer?"
"I'm sorry to have to obey."
Hearing this answer, Jiang Yueyang praised with a smile: "Not bad, I am very satisfied with this answer."
The system said, "Host, can you consider the feelings of Qingming and the other three single people?"
When Qingming and Qingzhi heard the system's words, they subconsciously looked at each other, then quickly looked away, their ears slightly red.
Only Xu An nodded secretly in agreement, that’s right!
"Little melon, I didn't expect you to miss someone. Qingming and Qingzhi aren't single, they like each other. The only singles here are you and Xu An."
Xu An widened his eyes. When did this happen?
The system glanced at Qingzhi and Qingming and said in a dead voice, "This world is very unfriendly to me. I need to calm down."
After that, the system shut down.
In the end, only Xu An endured it all silently.
Jiang Yueyang ignored the system, picked up the bow and arrow and started today's practice task.
But just as she shot the first arrow, Lu Yunting pulled her into his arms, and the system that had previously tried to calm her down also sounded an alarm.
[Host, danger is approaching! ]
