Chapter 149 The murderer is not her, she is already dead...
"Mei Xiang! Mei Xiang!"
Lu Laosan shouted all the way and rushed in, but there was no trace of Meixiang's body in the place before him.
He roared with bloodshot eyes: "Where's Meixiang? Where did you take Meixiang?"
Qin Miaoxi dodged his outstretched hand with a light flash. Her expression was stern, and her words were as cold as ice: "She's dead. Her body was found in a dry well."
"Who killed Meixiang?" The veins on Lu Laosan's neck bulged, and he looked like an enraged trapped beast.
Qin Miaoxi raised her eyebrows, a scrutinizing look flashing across her eyes: "How do you know she was murdered?"
"Hmph!" Lu Lao San was furious, his guts boiling as he cursed, "How could I not know? Meixiang was in that kind of mood, how could she commit suicide? She must have been murdered. Was it those bastards in the Lu family who did it? It had to be them!"
He said it with absolute certainty, without any hesitation.
Such certainty instantly made Qin Miaoxi suspicious. She stared at Lu Lao San with a sharp gaze, "Why are you so sure that the Lu family was responsible?"
As if a sore spot had been touched, the grief and anger on Lu Lao San's face grew stronger, and his eyes reddened. "Before we returned to the Lu family, our lives were peaceful. But as soon as we came back, disasters kept happening. Mei Niang was gone, and Mei Xiang was murdered right after. This is forcing us into a dead end. It would be better for us to die together!"
"Master, be careful with your words!"
A gentle voice was heard, and Lu Laosan's wife walked over gracefully with lotus steps.
She bowed demurely to Qin Miaoxi, then asked softly but clearly, "Sir, have you found the whereabouts of Meixiang's murderer?"
Her face was calm, without any emotion, like a deep and bottomless spring. She did not seem sad or gloating over the death of her concubine.
"We haven't found out yet, but we can confirm that the person who killed Meixiang and Meiniang is the same person."
Qin Miaoxi looked solemn, her eyes sweeping across everyone's faces one by one.
"Then I'll trouble you, sir. I hope the murderer can be apprehended soon so that the deceased can rest in peace."
As soon as Mrs. Lu San finished speaking, Lu Lao San turned around and glared at her fiercely like a lit firecracker, the anger in his eyes seemed to devour her: "How can you be so cold-blooded, woman! Now it's your sister who died, and you are so indifferent!"
Mrs. Lu San pretended not to hear and just looked at Lu Lao San quietly twice. Her eyes seemed to be filled with pity and disdain.
Then, she still walked away gracefully and slowly.
Qin Miaoxi stood there, the corners of her mouth twitching slightly without leaving any trace.
Just now, she actually heard Mrs. Lu San's inner voice: "It's just that Meixiang is dead, but there are still 17 or 18 other Meixiangs like you around. Why are you pretending to be so deeply in love? You're a piece of shit."
Look at this Mrs. Lu San. She obviously hates all those beauties in Lu Lao San's backyard. No wonder her methods were so cruel and impressive when we first met them.
Then, she turned to Lu Lao San and asked softly, "Has Meixiang ever had any grudges against anyone?"
Lu Lao San rubbed his head in pain, muttering to himself, "We just arrived at the Lu Mansion not long ago, who could we make enemies with? Could it be..."
Before he finished speaking, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he jumped up like a spring, rushing out of the yard, shouting as he ran: "That bitch, she must have killed Meixiang, I'm going to kill her!"
When Qin Miaoxi heard this, she immediately became alert. She quickly raised her hand to block the yamen runner who wanted to stop her, and then followed closely.
Lu Lao San was like a gust of wind, running straight towards Lu Lao Er's yard with the speed of wind.
As soon as he reached the courtyard gate, he shouted at the top of his voice, "Li, get out of here right now! Don't play dumb. I already know that Meixiang was murdered by you!"
Qin Miaoxi was watching coldly from the side, but when she heard this, she was stunned.
She originally thought that Zou looked down on her own concubines, but unexpectedly, he came straight for Li from the second house. But why would someone from the second house kill someone from the third house for no reason?
Qin Miaoxi was full of suspicion, her eyes moving back and forth between Lu Lao San and the closed courtyard gate.
Seeing no response from the courtyard for a long time, Lu Lao San became even more furious. Veins popped out on his forehead and he roared again, "Lu Lao Er, if you're a man, get out of here right now! Hiding in the house like a coward, what kind of hero are you? If you have the guts, let's talk it out face to face! You dare to kill my concubine now, are you going to kill me next?"
After saying that, he angrily kicked the vermilion lacquered door hard.
A muffled "bang" sound seemed to break the silence in the house.
After a long time, the tightly closed door slowly shook, creaked, and finally opened.
Lu Lao Er's face was gloomy, as if wrapped in a layer of frost, and he walked out of the house with heavy and slow steps.
His eyes were cold. After briefly staying on Lu Lao San, they quickly swept around, as if he was looking for something, but he avoided Qin Miaoxi's inquiring gaze.
Lu Laosan's face was filled with anger, and he yelled at everyone, "Why are you still standing there like an idiot? Hurry and pull Li out for me. I want to ask her why she killed Meixiang?" After saying that, he made a move to rush in.
Seeing this, Lu Lao Er hurried forward to stop them, frowning and saying in a low voice, "Shut up, Li didn't kill anyone at all, don't make a fuss here."
As he spoke, he reached out and grabbed Lu Laosan's arm, dragging him to the dark corner nearby. He looked panicked and his voice became increasingly low: "You idiot, this is clearly the result of the drought demon taking your life. Where are you going to find the murderer? Stop messing around."
When Lu Laosan heard this, he felt like he had just heard a huge joke. The fat on his face trembled. He suddenly shook off Lu Laoer's hand, his eyes widened, and his voice raised. He refuted with confidence: "Bullshit! The coroner in the government office has examined it clearly and clearly stated that this was intentional. The murderer is Li. It's a done deal."
He gasped, veins bulging in his neck. He counted the incidents on his fingers, recounting them one by one: "Back then, Li and Meixiang fought over those jewelry and fabrics, causing chaos and even physical violence several times. The feud was deep-rooted. If she hadn't killed Meixiang, who else could it be?"
After saying this, he rolled up his sleeves, shook off Lu Laoer's hand, and rushed straight to the door of the second house, shouting, "I have to go and get to the bottom of this today. I want to see if she's guilty and afraid to see anyone!"
"do not go!"
Lu Lao Er was extremely anxious. He rushed forward with his arms open, trying to block Lu Lao San's way with his body, his face full of anxiety and helplessness.
Unexpectedly, Qin Miaoxi behind him quietly stretched out a kick, whether intentionally or unintentionally. Lu Laoer was caught off guard and fell forward. With a dull "bang", he fell heavily to the ground.
At this time, Lu Lao San had already rushed in like a gust of wind. Lu Lao Er ignored the pain in his body, raised his head, and shouted at the top of his lungs: "Li is dead..."
The voice echoed in the yard, revealing a sense of despair and powerlessness.
