Chapter 454: Unknown Female Corpse
"Okay." Su Yujin agreed crisply, and then said, "It's still a little short. I'll just give it two more injections. You wait a moment."
"good."
He Yanxiu sat next to Su Yujin, watching her thread the needle very skillfully, and then took out two finger-wide straps from the basket and sewed them to the two ends of the thing.
Su Yujin sewed carefully, and after finishing, she pulled the belt to check whether it was firm.
Finally, the knot was tied and the thread was cut.
"Okay." Su Yujin handed the things to He Yanxiu.
"Thank you for your hard work." He Yanxiu put it carefully into his arms as if it were a treasure.
Place it specifically closest to your chest.
Seeing this, Su Yujin smiled.
The rain stopped around noon, the dark clouds dispersed, and the sun shone brightly.
But because of the heavy rain just now, even though the sunlight was dazzling at this time, it felt less hot.
In the afternoon, He Yanxiu accompanied Su Yujin to tidy up the vegetable field after the heavy rain.
After Lu and Su Yunruo returned from the banquet, He Yanxiu had dinner with Su Yujin and others.
Su Shaoyuan and Su Wenxuan, father and son, had not returned until the end of dinner.
When discussing business, it is common to talk more and have a few meals together. No one cared and they just gathered together in the evening to eat a pot of delicious spicy hotpot.
Eating some spicy food in the summer makes you sweat profusely, as if all the pores in your body are open to breathe, and you feel extremely comfortable.
Paired with cold and delicious ice porridge made with crushed ice, various fruits, rice beans, honey water, etc., iced pearl milk tea, iced milk taro balls...
When He Yanxiu came out of the Su family's house, he looked at the horses prepared by Xing'an and frowned.
"I don't want to ride a horse today. Let's take a carriage instead."
Second Master doesn't ride a horse? Xing'an scratched his head in surprise.
Although the Second Master is a civil official, and has inherited the looks of the old master and the old man, he is as gentle and handsome as jade, but he has the character of a military general like his wife in his bones. Normally, he still likes the free and easy feeling of riding a horse and waving the whip.
Especially today, after it rained, the weather was cool, and the sky was full of stars. It was the most suitable time to ride back slowly on horseback, which was also Erye's favorite...
Seeing Xing'an's confusion, He Yanxiu glanced at him unhappily.
This Xing'an, his job is getting better and better, but he doesn't even have this little bit of tact.
Didn’t you see that he was so full from eating that he didn’t even dare to bend over and could only stick his belly forward to make himself more comfortable?
How can I ride a horse in this situation?
Su Yujin saw the clue and laughed beside her, "Let Xing'an go back to the Lu family to arrange a carriage now. It will take a long time to go back and forth. Since Second Master wants to take a carriage, he can take my carriage first."
"Okay." He Yanxiu responded with a smile.
Instructing his servants to prepare the carriage, Su Yujin escorted He Yanxiu to the carriage, and also took the shampoo that she had promised to give to He Yanxiu, Old Madam He, and Mrs. He.
In addition, Su Yujin gave He Yanxiu two more pills, "For the stomach and digestion, take one pill now. If you still feel uncomfortable after an hour, take another pill."
"Don't do this again in the future."
You are so old, but you still have no control over what you eat. It's simply...
Indescribable!
Besides, we are in the capital and we can see each other often. How could we miss your delicious food?
After Su Yujin finished speaking, she glanced at He Yanxiu unhappily.
He Yanxiu smiled and nodded, "I'll make a note of it."
There is no other way. I have been busy in the Ministry of Revenue these days. I have to eat my meals in the small canteen of the Ministry every day. The taste is really not good. It is not an exaggeration to describe it as chewing wax. But if I don’t eat, I will just be hungry. I can only take a few bites in a hurry.
It was not easy to have the delicious meal at Su Yujin's place, and I was so happy to receive the gift from Su Yujin today that I couldn't help but lose my composure.
However, I will listen to Su Yujin's teachings and won't do it again next time.
After a farewell, the carriage slowly drove towards the He family.
He Yanxiu took a pill first as Su Yujin said.
The pills are made from a mixture of various medicinal ingredients, including hawthorn. They taste sweet and sour with a slightly bitter taste, and you will feel a sense of wanting more after eating them.
He Yanxiu waited for his stomach to feel better. He still sat upright in the carriage. He took out the thing Su Yujin had given him from his arms and looked at it carefully.
The material of the item is excellent, and the stitching is fine, which shows that Su Yujin put a lot of effort into it.
But here comes the problem...
What is this thing used for? When I got it, I was so immersed in the joy of receiving it and the heartache for Su Yujin learning needlework that I forgot to ask what it was.
Moreover, it was the first time that Su Yujin had sent needlework products. If he didn't even know what the things he sent were for, it would inevitably hurt her feelings. Su Yujin didn't take the initiative to explain, probably because she thought he should know it? In short, due to various reasons, even if He Yanxiu wanted to ask, he swallowed his words.
Then this thing...
He Yanxiu fell into deep thought.
When a girl gives something to a man, she definitely hopes that he can keep it with him at all times so that he can think of her whenever he wants.
So this thing is probably a decoration, similar to a purse or a sachet, and it has straps on both ends, which look a bit like tassels or tassels.
Su Yujin has novel ideas and a way of thinking that ordinary people do not have. He can think of or do something unique.
To sum up, this thing must be a novel accessory, similar to the forbidden step worn by women.
He Yanxiu thought so and tried to hang the strap at one end of the thing on the belt around his waist.
The upper belt dropped down a section, followed by two objects that looked like two ovals connected together, and then a long belt...
It has a unique charm when it falls vertically like this.
And the more you look at it, the more you like it.
Yes, that's right, it's worn like this.
And when you sit down, this thing can be placed just on your legs, and your hands can be pressed on your knees.
It’s just right.
The more He Yanxiu looked at it, the more he felt it was very suitable, and he even felt a little complacent.
As expected of him, wise and intelligent! ...
Wangzhuxuan.
Before He Yanxiu could rest, Shi Ding arrived.
"What is it?"
He Yanxiu put down the book in his hand.
"In a valley more than 20 miles outside the village, a female corpse was found," Shi Ding replied. "She had been dead for more than a month, and her corpse was eaten by wild animals in the mountains, so her features could not be discerned."
Unknown female corpse?
He Yanxiu frowned, thought for a moment and asked, "Could it be Fang?"
Before meeting He Yande that day, Fang had already disappeared. He Yanxiu later sent Shi Ding and others to look for her, but to no avail.
"I'm not sure, but judging by the body shape and age of the corpse, it is very consistent with him." Shi Ding replied, "The brocade pattern worn by the corpse is also worn by Fang family, but other than that, there is nothing else that can prove his identity."
