Qin E faced her father and didn't know what to do.

When she returned to Lanwan Garden, Feng Qi and others were at the second gate and handed her the purchase list that she had taken back from Huang Bi's hand. Qin E looked at it in front of him, and the white paper with a slight yellowing in the corner was written on what to purchase and the quantity.

The words on it are delicate and handsome, faintly stubborn, and Qin E can see at a glance that it was written by Xia Zhu. Xia Zhu helped her mother take care of the back house, and the back house should be reported to her whenever it was purchased, and after her mother's consent, she was sent to the steward in the front yard to procure.

Qin E's gaze was fixed on "pebbles, sixty catties".

Qin E put away the list and said to Feng Qi: "I still have something to trouble you, I ordered a box of lake pens for Xuan'er in Yicuizhai on East Street, can you find someone to help me get it back?"

Feng Qi naturally agreed, "I'll send someone to get it in a while." ”

Qin E said goodbye to him with a smile, finished dinner early in the evening, and called Qin Yan, "I'm going out at night, you keep watch at home, don't let people find out that I'm not there." If you have something urgent, go to Yicuizhai on East Street to find me. ”

"Sister, are you going to see Master Meng?"

Qin E was stunned for a moment, then blushed and said, "I'm going to do serious business, not to see him." ”

Qin Yan said: "It's also a serious matter to go to see Lord Meng." ”

"You are so young, how can you care about these things. ”

As soon as the words fell, a small round stone flew in from outside the window. Qin Yan jumped up and said, "It's Eleven who is here." ”

Qin E opened the window wider, and Eleven rushed in like a gust of wind.

"The Overseer received a letter from the eldest lady and sent me to take a look. ”

Meng Jingke told Qin E that if there was something urgent, he would go to Yicuizhai to get the lake pen, and the shopkeeper Han would naturally inform him.

Qin E said: "I have something important to go out, you take me out." ”

She was going to see Xia Zhu, but she had just gone out a few days ago, and there was no excuse for wanting to go out again, so she had to ask Eleven to help.

The two came to Hui'an Medicine Store, and said: "It's not convenient for me to enter this place, Miss, you go in, I'm guarding outside, and you can call me if you have something." As he spoke, he jumped onto the roof of the house.

Qin E had something in her heart, and she didn't bother to ask him why it was inconvenient to enter here for a while, knocked on the door, and the people inside saw that it was her, and immediately politely invited her in, "Shao Dong said, you are a distinguished guest, you can come whenever you want, you can do whatever you want." ”

Qin E was very speechless to Li Lu, but she was also very moved.

Xia Zhu was surprised when he saw her, "Why are you here?"

Time was pressing, Qin E didn't bother to explain to her, "Don't worry about these things first, you can recognize this thing if you look at it." ”

Xia Zhu took the list and looked up and down, and said in surprise: "Isn't this the purchase list I wrote?"

Qin E pointed to the middle line, "Look at this place, this batch of pebbles is exactly what the Fang family wants, and the pond that Xiaochan said is paved with this batch of bought pebbles." Qin E looked at her, "Don't you have a little impression of so many things? didn't you ask her why she wanted so many at that time?"

If you want to buy things in the back house, you don't want to buy as much as you want, you can buy whatever you want, everything has to be asked, and finally you have to get Shen's consent. Fang's bought a pebble mat fish tank, even Huang Bi knew it, Xia Zhu couldn't be unclear. As soon as he opened his mouth, it was sixty catties, and it was impossible not to ask with Xia Zhu's shrewdness.

Xia Zhu looked at it fixedly, "Strange, why don't I have any impression." ”

Qin E said: "There are not a hundred but eighty things you ask about every day, will you forget it for a while?" Think about it. ”

Xia Zhu shook his head, "There are so many things, I shouldn't let them buy them without asking, but I really don't have any impression at all." ”

Qin E sighed helplessly, she really didn't expect to find any clues from Xia Zhu in this matter. After all, more than four years have passed, and a list, a number, really can't bring much explanation.

Xia Zhu suddenly said "Huh", "No, this word doesn't look like I wrote it." ”

Qin E hurriedly went to look, Xia Zhu pointed to the six characters of "sixty catties", "This word is very similar to mine, I almost missed it, but I didn't write it if I looked closely." ”

In order to prove it, Xia Zhu deliberately wrote more than a dozen "six" on the paper, "I am used to the weight of the last stroke, so the writing is always uneven, you see that this character is written impartially and looks very good." ”

Qin E compared the two, and there were indeed some discrepancies. After careful observation, the more I felt that this word was out of place, and there was a feeling that it had been added later.

The two looked at each other, and they obviously thought of the same possibility.

"Someone changed this list!"

Xia Zhu said excitedly: "The person who changed the list is the one behind this matter!"

Qin E nodded, "In this way, the Fang clan really has nothing to do with this matter, or she was also calculated." ”

The two of them met their eyes again, and they both saw the shock in each other's eyes.

For so many years, they and the Fang clan hated each other, and they both lost the fight, but they fell into the trap of others.

Qin E thought that there was such a thoughtful and sinister person in the Qin Mansion, and now he was peeking at them secretly like a snake, and she felt both shuddered and hateful.

"Do you remember, who has touched this list?"

Xia Zhu was also thinking about this, and blamed himself: "I don't remember." ”

Qin E can understand that it is normal for an ordinary list not to remember after so long.

Xia Zhu said guiltily: "It's all my fault, it's my negligence that caused Madame's grievances!"

Qin E said: "What is this, the person who harmed my mother is behind this matter, what does it have to do with you." God let us find this clue, there must be a way to find out. ”

Qin E comforted Xia Zhu confidently, but she was actually very dazed. The clues that have been found so hard have been broken again, and there are so many clues, where to start?

Qin E went out to find Eleven, and Eleven took her through two streets to an inconspicuous tea shed.

Meng Jingke came out of it, took Qin E's hand, and said with a smile: "My eyes are so big, do you think about me?"

Qin E glared at him angrily, and after glaring, she found that she had suffered even more, her mouth was flattened angrily, and her cheeks were hot.

Meng Jingke brought her into the house, which was dilapidated, but neat and new. There was boiling hot water on the small red clay stove, and Meng Jingke sat down first, quietly scalding the teacup.

Cosy room.

Qin E's mood calmed down suddenly, and she sat opposite him, holding her cheeks and watching him make tea.

Meng Jingke looked up at her with a smile, "You're lazy, you drink ready-made every time." ”

Qin E took the cup and took a sip of it, sighing with enjoyment, "Such a pleasing thing, of course you can't miss it." ”

Meng Jingke waited for her to finish drinking a cup of tea, her eyebrows widened, and Fang asked, "What's wrong?"
