Xiao Cunyu felt even more upset when he saw his third brother still smiling so happily.
As he stuffed food into his mouth, his grief and anger turned into appetite, but Xiao Guantang became more talkative: "Seventh brother, are you hiding something from me?"
"No." Xiao Cunyu answered very straightforwardly.
"You and I met Cui Qiao together, why did you know that she killed someone, but I didn't? And her two children, how did you know they had already died?" Xiao Guantang was very puzzled.
"So that's what you're asking..." Xiao Cunyu straightened his back. "Third brother, you can read. I can't compare to that, but I can see. I told you when I first met Cui Qiao that I understand yin and yang. These things are naturally calculated. How difficult can it be?"
Xiao Guantang looked at her seriously.
It seemed as if he was thinking about the credibility of her words. After all, Xiao Cunyu looked... nothing like a charlatan and didn't have the temperament of a charlatan at all.
But he didn't know how to explain what happened today. It was true that his seventh brother had never seen Cui Qiao before, but it was also true that every word he said pointed out the facts. He was really confused.
"It seems that you have learned a lot of strange skills outside over the years." After a while, Xiao Guantang still chose to respect.
Seventh brother's hobbies are somewhat different from those of ordinary people, but this is not something that harms others, so there is no reason for him to interfere.
and……
Xiao Guantang added seriously, "Cui Qiao is very clever. If you hadn't figured out his trick, we would have been completely fooled. Even if we handed him over to the government, it would take months to unravel this complex story. Seventh brother, if you could apply your calculation skills to solving cases, then nothing in this world would be difficult for you. If you really don't want to take the imperial examinations in the future, ask your uncle to find you a small official position in the Ministry of Justice. It might not even be a high rank at first, but at least you'll be paid by the government. I believe that with your abilities, you'll be able to solve countless extraordinary cases and eventually rise to prominence."
The more Xiao Guantang talked, the more he felt that this method was feasible.
Doesn't my seventh brother dislike studying? Even if I let him rely on the imperial examination, I'm afraid it won't work.
Then just find a suitable position. With the ability of your family, you can still get someone in the yamen.
Xiao Cunyu began to play deaf and dumb.
Xiao Guantang still thought his plan was a good one, and even said, "I'll ask a friend for help someday and borrow some old and useless files. You can look through them more. The more you look at them, the more comfortable you'll be when you come across cases in the future. What do you think?"
"Third brother's stewed pig's trotters are delicious, you should try it." Xiao Cunyu immediately picked up some dishes.
The food is right in front of him, but you still can't shut him up?
Xiao Guantang was about to continue, but Xiao Cunyu quickly asked, "Third brother, what do you plan to do with those six girls?"
As soon as Xiao Cunyu said this, Cui Qiao, who was floating beside him, also became alert and stared at him straight, as if he would eat the living person in front of him immediately if he said anything irresponsible.
Of course, even if Cui Qiao wanted to harm them, he couldn't do it.
Xiao Cunyu has a sword on her body and the ability to catch souls. Cui Qiao can't hurt her, and Xiao Guantang... can be said to be shining with golden light and full of Wenchang aura. For a person with a righteous heart and full of literary talent, ordinary evil spirits can hardly hurt him at all.
Xiao Guantang thought for a while and said, "First, send someone to their family to inquire about it, deliver a letter of safety, and see how their family reacts. If they can still accept them, then we can see what they want. If they can meet with their family and start over, that would be the best. If not..."
