Chapter 43 Rooted
Fuyou, the culprit in the case of the headless corpse, was sentenced to death, and was executed by Wuchang in black with a golden mace in court. The news spread like wildfire, and was spread among the people of Fengdu City.
The news spread throughout the land.
The headless corpse case incident that caused a lot of uproar for a while ended like this.
Although the whole case still seems to be full of doubts and there are many puzzling aspects, after the case was concluded, the serial murder cases in Fengdu City actually subsided, and no more cases occurred.
This allowed the people who had been fearful and uneasy affected by this case to finally feel at ease, and the restless Fengdu City gradually returned to calm and returned to its former hustle and bustle.
In the blink of an eye, more than a month has passed.
For the past few days, Pregnant Qiao had been busy cultivating without eating or sleeping. She stayed behind closed doors all day long, leaving Xiaoqing alone to take care of things.
After returning from the day when the headless corpse case was heard, Xiaoqing seemed to be a completely different person, having swept away the gloomy atmosphere of the past and became lively and cheerful.
On the one hand, it was because he had to avenge himself.
Hidden anger and old grudges have been released, and there is no longer a trace of grudge.
On the other hand, she knew that the people in Xiangliu Village cared about and protected her two sisters, and she burst into tears of gratitude.
In particular, Xiang Laotaijun, the patriarch of Xiangliu Village, was willing to testify in person for her and her elder sister at the age of 80, crying and accusing her of all kinds of crimes.
Even at the risk of perjury, she still wanted to uphold justice for the two sisters! This made Xiao Qing deeply moved.
After the court hearing, Xiaoqing hurriedly stepped forward to recognize her, and tactfully told her various experiences after leaving Xiangliu Village and her current situation.
The patriarch, Xiang Laotaijun, secretly regretted that he had been deceived by his superficial appearance and failed to recognize the true face of this person, let alone agree to this marriage.
Xiaoqing also regretted her mistake, she only regretted that she was short-sighted and was unkind to others.
The two of them hugged each other and burst into tears!
Maybe this person is in high spirits when happy events happen, and Xiaoqing has been in high spirits and smiling all day since that day.
At this time, Xiaoqing brought the morning meal to Pregnancy Qiao with a smile on her lips. Pregnancy Qiao liked to be vegetarian, so the morning meal was relatively simple, just clear porridge and a few side dishes.
Seeing that Yu Qiao was still practicing, she quietly closed the door and left.
Skull Xiaogu and Qing San were also very busy during this period.
I took the time to tidy up the old house with old trees that Pregnant Joe bought, and bought bedding, tea sets and other supplies. The whole house was tidied up and looked brand new, and you can move in at any time.
When Qing San returned to Niyu General's Mansion to report to Yuqiao, Yuqiao immediately decided to move out of Niyu General's Mansion on the grounds that "it's better to hit the sun than to choose another day".
The master and servants started to pack their things again, packed their luggage, and headed straight to the old house with ancient trees in a hurry.
Huan Shu saw that he couldn't stop her, so he had no choice but to let her go.
When Pregnant Qiao once again stood in front of the red gate in front of the old house with an ancient tree, she was filled with emotions. After going through so many twists and turns, she finally had a place to settle down in the underworld, and she had finally gained a foothold.
.
But from now on, I am still confused as to where I should go.
Pregnant Qiao shook her head, forcing herself not to think about things that were too far away, and to take care of the immediate things first!
Then he raised his feet and stepped into the courtyard.
The old house with ancient trees has been renovated by Qing San and Skull Xiaogu. At first glance, the red walls, green tiles, and towering ancient trees give people a sense of a completely new look.
I haven't seen you for many days, but Mi Lao'er is still flourishing and looking like an old god.
It seemed that he had no intention of coming out to say hello to Pregnancy Qiao, so Pregnancy Qiao ignored him and went straight into her room.
Pregnant Qiao lived in one of the two main rooms, and Xiaoqing lived in the other, so it was convenient to take care of Pregnant Qiao anytime and anywhere.
Skull Bones moved into the east wing. Although Qing San looked reluctant, he still stayed and moved into the west wing.
It has to be said that Qing San and Xiao Gu are very careful and considerate in their work. Pregnant Qiao's room is elegantly decorated, even compared to the General's Mansion in Riyu.
On one side of the room, there is an ivory bed placed close to the wall. There are openwork carvings on the eaves and horizontal eyebrows, and they are decorated with patterns of birds facing the phoenix. The surrounding fences are also carved with various different patterns.
The animals and rare birds are unique and lifelike.
The smoky green gauze curtains hang down from the eaves, layer upon layer, dancing with the wind, making people feel a little lighter when they look at it.
Although the quilt pillows are simple and made of plain brocade, they are exactly the style that Pregnancy Qiao likes, and they also look very soft and comfortable.
There is also a tea table and two armchairs with crescent armrests in the room. Next to the tea table is an incense table. On top of the incense table is a gilt copper incense burner. Unknown incense is lit in the incense burner, and green smoke curls up.
, the fragrance is overflowing.
Pregnant Qiao concentrated and smelled it. It was a light fragrance of flowers and plants. The aroma was pleasant. Smelling it lifted people's spirits. It seemed that this fragrance had the effect of calming the nerves and refreshing the brain.
What pleased Pregnant Joe the most was that there was a three-screen Arhat bed carved from rosewood placed near the window lattice. The crescent strips were decorated with auspicious cloud patterns, which was exquisite, meticulous and ingenious.
The Arhat's bed was already covered with a quilt, and several brocade cushions were placed on the surround.
There is a small square table next to the Arhat bed. On the carved lamp stand above the small table are placed two fist-sized, radiant night pearls.
This is not the first time that Pregnant Qiao has seen such a night-bright pearl. She has seen it before at the General's house in Japan.
This kind of luminous pearl is a very common lighting tool in the underworld, but it is also very expensive and cannot be afforded by today's pregnant women.
Thinking about it, maybe Qing San's guy came here from General Riyu's house? I don't know.
Pregnant Qiao thought for a moment and suddenly laughed out loud.
I thought to myself: I am really stupid. Which of the items in her house can she afford? Huan Shu secretly helped her buy them one by one.
Thinking of the joy and separation, Pregnant Qiao felt a little sad.
It's not that she doesn't understand Huan Shu's feelings for her, but she can't take care of herself now, so how can she think about falling in love?
Maybe as time went by, Huanshu's affection for him would naturally fade away.
Pregnant Qiao sighed, feeling faintly depressed in her heart.
Turning around, I saw the two luminous pearls on the lamp stand again.
As for the origin of these luminous pearls, Xiao Qing had told Pregnancy Qiao before that these luminous pearls were said to be transformed from the tears shed by a luminous beast that looked like a horse, but was taller than a horse.
