“It’s almost certain that it’s them. We have a complete chain of clues,” said a constable dressed in a darker color who appeared to be the leader.
"They cut their hair short, dressed in men's clothes, and pretended to be men. When they arrived in Yuezhou City, they were arrested and taken to Ning County Government Office as murder suspects. On the way, they jumped down a steep slope. At the time, they couldn't find them and thought they had escaped again. It turned out that they had fallen into a crevice and suffocated to death side by side."
Upon hearing this, Chen cried even more bitterly, and almost fainted several times.
"What about the twenty taels they had?" Madam Shen asked quickly. It didn't matter that the people were gone, but Song Dahua and Song Xiaohua had taken twenty taels with them.
A hint of guilt flashed in the eyes of the leader: "We didn't find anything. They probably already squandered it all."
The two men were found at the Giant Temple, but the county officials still thoroughly searched them, as people who escape from home often carry valuables.
But who would have thought that the two sisters had actually stuffed the silver into the leather bag? The smell almost made them vomit, and they could only endure the nausea and divide it.
The Song family members looked deathly pale. They had lost their money and their loved ones; two more members of the Song family had died.
In just over a year, five members of the Song family have died. Is God trying to wipe out their entire family?
Qiao Lian'er stood at a distance, a faint smile on her lips.
Although Song Dahua and Song Xiaohua did not die directly at her hands, it was as if she indirectly sent them both to their deaths.
Where can you find such good fortune that every member of the Song family could escape, flee far away, and start a new life?
Shen Xiu glanced at Qiao Lian'er's face and was shocked. Could it be that the deaths of Song Da Hua and Song Xiao Hua were related to her?
Her eyes darted around, and she asked, "Brother yamen runner, were the soldiers from Yuezhou who escorted her back from Yuezhou City?"
“They are servants from the Chu family compound. They are not familiar with this kind of thing. If they were really government soldiers, the escort would be strict and they wouldn’t have been allowed to jump off the carriage.”
The leader waved his hand and said, "Let's go, let's go back."
As they set off, they said, "The smell of death on us is so strong that even the strongest incense won't help. We'll have to stand in the outhouse for half a day."
Once the soldiers were a little further away, Madam Shen looked at Qiao Lian'er with a half-smile on her face: "The Chu family that the constable mentioned, could it be your maternal grandparents' family?"
Chen's two daughters are gone. Knowing that her two daughters were killed by Qiao Lian'er, she went mad, and who knows what the outcome will be.
"So what if they are? Song Dahua and Song Xiaohua are fugitive suspects who may have killed their grandmother. I happened to meet them in Yuezhou City, so naturally I had to send them back to the county government for trial. If they did it, then they should be punished according to the law. If they are innocent, then it is equivalent to clearing them of suspicion."
"Who knew they would be so impatient as to jump off the carriage and risk their lives? Could it be that they really did something wrong and are too afraid to go to the yamen?"
The villagers nodded in agreement; that made sense. If they had seen the person, they would have taken him to the authorities as well.
Murdering his grandmother and robbing the family's money is unforgivable.
"You ruined my two daughters, I'll kill you!" Chen screamed as she lunged at Qiao Lian'er.
Her hair was disheveled, her eyes were red and filled with hatred, making one's heart tremble.
Da Cheng stepped forward, blocking Qiao Lian'er, and kicked her several steps away.
