Chapter 11 Red Mansion 9
Sitting in the carriage, Jia Hu asked the little girl her name and her family situation.
The little girl timidly replied: "My name is Zhen Yinglian. I only remember that there is a temple near my home, which seems to be called Calabash Temple. I can't remember the rest clearly."
Liu Heng raised his eyebrows. .
Didn’t the original article say that Xiang Ling could not remember her original name and the related circumstances of her family at all?
The little girl now remembers her name and the important clue of Calabash Temple.
But if you think about it, Liu Hao will understand the reason.
Human traffickers beat and scold the children, forcing them to forget their past.
Xiang Ling in the original article was so frightened by the beatings and scoldings of the traffickers, and perhaps because of her illness, she forgot what happened before.
But the current Zhen Yinglian is not Xiang Ling. She has not yet been beaten and scolded by the traffickers into submission. This can be seen from the fact that she escaped from the traffickers this time.
Now Zhen Yinglian naturally remembers her name and relevant information about her family.
Perhaps it would not have been possible for Liu Heng and Jia Hu to encounter Zhen Yinglian being captured by traffickers and stop the traffickers.
Zhen Yinglian will suffer a lot after being captured this time. It is likely that she was beaten so badly by the traffickers that her hair was burned to the brain and she forgot her name.
This should be the effect of Liu Hiiragi's unintentional flapping of butterfly wings.
Back at Lin Mansion, the place has returned to calm, as if nothing had happened.
But there are a few people missing from Jia Min’s yard.
One of them is Jia Min’s trusted roommate.
Jia Hu and Liu Tiao didn't ask anything, they only talked about Zhen Yinglian.
Lin Daiyu pulled Zhen Yinglian to show Jia Min.
Jia Min should have inherited Jia Shi's ability to control appearance. Seeing the beautiful and well-behaved little girl, Jia Min felt so soft-hearted that she immediately agreed to her daughter's request and left Zhen Yinglian in the Lin Mansion to accompany Lin Daiyu.
She asked someone to find out where the Calabash Temple was.
Although people from the yamen will help the abducted children find their biological parents, there are so many children that it is not possible to investigate the origins of one child specifically.
After dinner, Liu Heng and Jia Hu returned to the guest house.
Liu Heng entered his room and saw Ji Qiu waiting for him with a burning fire of gossip behind him.
Liu Hao couldn't help but smile, this girl is really suitable to be an information dealer.
How about setting up an organization to sell intelligence?
But then, he gave up the idea.
Forget it, it will cause trouble.
Liu Heng sat down on the chair, and Ji Qiu immediately poured him a cup of tea and held it in front of Liu Heng.
Liu Hiiragi took a sip of tea. The temperature was moderate, not bad.
He said: "Sit down and talk."
Ji Qiu responded, sat down opposite Liu Heng, and began to whisper what he had learned.
Jia Min’s poison came from the escort she got rid of.
That man is a son of a family in Rongguo Mansion. He is good-looking and is the aunt candidate prepared by Jia Shi for Jia Min.
Jia Shi believed that the person’s parents and relatives were all in Rongguo Mansion and could easily be controlled by Jia Min, making her become Lin Ruhai’s aunt, which was better than the Lin family’s maid being Lin Ruhai’s aunt.
But Jia Min did not let that man be Lin Ruhai's mistress. Instead, he chose a maid who was not as good looking as that man but duller and more honest than that man to be Lin Ruhai's mistress.
Jia Min married the man to a steward of the Lin Mansion, thinking it was good for the man and would give her a good home.
Little did he know that after seeing the young and handsome Lin Ruhai, that man wanted to be Lin Ruhai's woman.
Jia Min cut off the possibility of that man marrying Lin Ruhai, and that man naturally hated Jia Min.
She was very scheming and never showed her hatred for Jia Min.
Until some time ago, she discovered a way to turn the anti-fetal medicine into a chronic poison by adding some medicinal materials.
The man then implemented it. She is Jia Min's confidant and his companion, and has been with Jia Min for more than ten years.
Jia Min never thought that the man would betray her.
Jia Min still couldn’t believe it until Lin Ruhai found out the truth.
Jia Min was very sad, but her methods were not soft at all.
Jia Min killed those who betrayed her and harmed herself and her children.
Although he did not kill the man directly, he gave him mute medicine and sold him to a black coal kiln.
Jia Min even dealt with the people who were related to that person and sold them all.
The Lin Mansion is missing one-fifth of its servants this time.
"Well done." Liu Heng praised Ji Qiu and gave her a piece of silver as a physical reward.
Ji Qiu happily took the silver and left Liu Heng's room.
Liu Hiiragi sat in his room for a while and then heard a knock on the door.
After waiting for the response, Jia Hu walked in.
Liu Hao couldn't help laughing: "You are also such a gossip."
Jia Hu said with a straight face: "I just care about my aunt and uncle."
Liu Tiao: "Are you so sure that Ji Qiu can find out the truth?"
Jia Hu: " That's what you carefully cultivated, I I believe in her ability."
Liu Hierng: "Ji Qiu will be very happy to hear what you said."
Jia Hu: "Who did Ji Qiu find out? aunt and cousin.”
Liu Heng told Jia Hu the information that Jiqiu had found.
Jia Hu gritted her teeth: "When I return to Rongguo Mansion, I will drive her parents out of the house."
For raising such a daughter, this family must not be good people. .
Liu Hiiragi nodded in agreement.
That man came from the family of Shan Daliang, the steward of Rongguo Mansion.
In the original text, this man was a good dog under the Wang family. He secretly exchanged a lot of good things from Rongguo Mansion with Lai Da and Wu Dengxin, and his family wealth started at least 100,000 taels.
Many branches of the Jia family are not as well-off as slaves like them.
In this world, the Wang family has not obtained the stewardship rights, so I don’t know if Shan Daliang secretly exchanged fake goods for genuine ones in the public treasury of Rongguo Mansion.
Jia Hu and Liu Heng stayed in Liu Heng for ten days.
In addition to visiting the scenic spots in Yangzhou, I also followed up on news from the human traffickers.
The yamen acted very quickly, and catching human traffickers was a big achievement.
After learning the address where she ran away from Zhen Yinglian, the people from the Yamen went to arrest her.
The traffickers did not wait for their accomplices to come back. They realized something had happened and were about to take the kidnapped children to transfer when they were blocked at the door by the government officials.
None of the traffickers escaped, they were all caught.
The children were taken back to the Yamen.
Some of them remembered the information at home and were quickly taken back by their families.
Although the rest cannot remember the situation at home because they are young, they were all kidnapped from near Yangzhou by human traffickers. The Yamen posted a notice, and the parents of those who had lost their children came to the Yamen and recognized them. own children.
The only trouble is Zhen Yinglian. She has been abducted for several years. She is not from near Yangzhou, so the Yamen can't find her relatives.
Fortunately, the Lin family took over the matter of helping Zhen Yinglian find her relatives, and the Yamen put it aside.
