Reborn Spicy Little Wife

Chapter 782 Meeting an old friend again

"The blackened fingernails of the headless male corpse are the poisoning symptom you mentioned. I'm planning to talk to the higher-ups and ask them to apply for a forensic autopsy. What do you think?"

Luo Ning nodded; this was a good idea.

“Your idea is good, but this involves a problem: how long after the poison is ingested. If someone is killed immediately after ingesting the poison, it won't enter the stomach. If the poison is ingested long enough, it can be detected in the stomach.”

"I see!" Xie Chang'an wasn't so confident anymore, but he still wanted to give it a try.

If Jia Yunshen is not brought to justice, his hatred will not be appeased.

"Chang'an, do you know who Wanqiu is?" Luo Ning asked curiously.

Xie Chang'an shook his head; he had never heard of this name before.

"Oh, then go to sleep!" Luo Ning found a comfortable position, closed her eyes, and drifted off to sleep.

Xie Chang'an's body gradually warmed up, and he fell into a deep sleep while holding Luo Ning's hand, maintaining his original posture.

The next day, when Luo Hai left, he thanked Luo Ning profusely.

Luo Ning understood that he had figured it out, which was great!

Three days passed quickly, and Jin Sheng's vacation was over. He had recovered well under Luo Ning's care.

However, the children's high chairs are not yet fully made.

With Luo Ning's consent, Jin Sheng took the timber to the capital to continue the work.

Luo Baiwan and Liu Aihong returned quietly.

Liu Aihong and her family still don't know what happened in their home.

Luo Baiwan had some suspicions, after all, he had found that there was nothing urgent there since he returned to Jiangbei, and he felt that Da Ya's decision to send them back was quite strange.

When she saw that Luo Ning and her two grandsons were safe and sound, she finally felt relieved.

With the weather getting colder, children are more prone to catching colds when going out, so Liu Aihong and Luo Baiwan moved into Luo Ning's house to help take care of the children.

Luo Ning finally had some free time, just in time for Fu Qingjin's birthday. She personally made longevity noodles for her, prepared a large table of dishes, and served tea sets that had been prepared in advance.

Fu Qingjin was so happy she couldn't stop smiling, she was almost dizzy with joy.

This made Tong Lan, who was sitting next to her, feel both sad and bitter.

That day, Xie Chang'an and Qiangzi went out, and Qiangzi subtly expressed that her mother wanted to reconcile with Luo Ning.

Luo Ning heard this news from Xie Chang'an and simply smiled faintly.

Qiangzi knew exactly what had happened. He was trying to achieve his goal indirectly because Tong Lan had pushed him to the limit.

Luo Ning didn't want to force herself, and she maintained her previous relationship with Tong Lan.

After dinner, everyone gradually left, but Tong Lan stayed behind; she wanted to talk to Luo Ning.

Using the child as an excuse, Luo Ning turned tail and left.

When she got home, she felt the warmth of home. "I'm home!"

Xie Chang'an, Luo Baiwan, and Liu Aihong were playing with Erbao and Xiaobao in the living room. When he saw Luo Ning return, he finally felt relieved.

Erbao and Xiaobao excitedly reached out their little hands to Luoning, both asking for a hug.

"I can't carry you two little ones, let Mommy play with you for a while!" Luo Ning walked over, picked up toys from the crib, and started playing with the two children.

Xie Chang'an smelled the alcohol and got up to go to the kitchen.

Liu Aihong watched the interaction between Luo Ning and her two children with great interest.

Luo Baiwan tugged at her sleeve and got up to walk towards the bedroom.

Liu Aihong left, turning back every few steps. She adored the two children; she couldn't get enough of looking at them.

Xie Chang'an brought out a cup of honey water and walked over to Luo Ning, who was playing wildly with the two children. "Wife, have some water."

Luo Ning casually took it and brought it to her mouth, but Erbao and Xiaobao stared at her intently.

"Oh, you two little gluttons, you can't drink this." Luo Ning took the cup and quickly went to the kitchen.

Erbao and Xiaobao immediately pouted, feeling wronged, extremely wronged, the kind of feeling that can never be comforted.

"Wife, let them have some drinks." Xie Chang'an couldn't bear to see them like this and subconsciously pleaded for them.

“Honey water is sweet, and if they drink it, they won’t like drinking plain water anymore. I’ll make them rice cereal right away.” Luo Ning drank the honey water in two gulps and hurriedly prepared rice for the two children.

No problem, Xie Chang'an was convinced.

When Erbao and Xiaobao saw that Luoning was gone, they quickly forgot about what had happened and started playing happily.

Several days passed, and the interrogation of the headless corpse case made no progress. Luo Ning became restless and went to the military region in person.

Standing in Jin Danian's office, Luo Ning asked very politely, "Commander Jin, may I meet Jia Yunshen's mother?"

Luo Ning was not a military officer here, so it was against the rules for her to go see Jia Yunshen's mother.

Therefore, Jin Danian hesitated.

“I understand you have discipline, but I might know that woman from before. Maybe if I go to see her, she'll confess?”

Luo Ning wagged his big tail and talked nonsense with a straight face.

Yes, that's exactly what Jin Danian thinks.

"I'm afraid..."

Luo Ning didn't want to hear what was coming next, so she quickly interrupted, "I heard that Commander Liu is in charge of the interrogation. Can I just watch from outside and not go in? As long as I don't have any contact with her, it won't be considered a violation of discipline, right?"

“Alright!” Jin Danian nodded. If he didn’t agree, Luo Ning would definitely have a hundred reasons to give him.

As long as you don't violate the rules, it's actually fine.

"Thank you!" Luo Ning ran out excitedly, heading straight for the closed area.

Commander Liu emerged from the confinement cell, pinching his brow as he walked out, when he ran into Luo Ning, who was heading towards him.

After exchanging pleasantries, Luo Ning explained her purpose, and Commander Liu immediately led her to the outside of Jia Yunshen's mother's confinement room.

Luo Ning stood in a blind spot, looking inside.

An elderly woman wearing a Chinese-style jacket and with her hair neatly combed turned her head to look outside and saw Commander Liu.

She turned her head and slowly combed her hair, continuing this action.

Luo Ning's gaze fell on her buttons, his mind racing.

Three minutes later, Luo Ning lifted her foot and walked outside.

Commander Liu glanced inside and quickly followed.

Outside the confinement room, Commander Liu looked around to make sure no one was watching, then lowered his voice and asked Luo Ning, who was peering around, "How is it?"

A sinister smile flashed across Luo Ning's eyes. "That woman was combing her hair the whole time, very slowly. It was an unconscious act; she was calming herself down by combing her hair."

I'm sure that even though she didn't see me, she definitely knew there was someone else outside besides you.

This is what her micro-expressions told me; she was momentarily flustered when she saw you appear.

She was very uneasy because someone was hiding in the shadows and could see her, but she couldn't see him.

All signs indicate that she was not an ordinary peasant woman.

You noticed that her clothes were missing; the Chinese-style velvet jacket had two rows of buttons on the chest, but she buttoned them wrong.

Her hair was combed so meticulously that it suggested she was a meticulous woman.

But how could someone who is meticulous make a mistake like buttoning their clothes wrong?

This shows that she was distracted and didn't pay attention to the details.

The woman insisted on seeing Jia Yunshen, but she didn't know his current situation and dared not say anything rash.

If she were to meet Jia Yunshen, and the two of them were to coordinate their statements, she would be even less likely to say anything.

Ignore her, just endure it and see how long she can hold out.

As expected, Luo Ning didn't recognize the old woman. She was certain that she was Cai Liancheng's mother.

Her hair-combing habits betrayed her.

Seeing an old friend again, Luo Ning felt like she'd been stabbed in the heart. The reason she couldn't let them meet was...
