Chapter 85: Investigation
"The second aunt was locked up by her father this morning, so it should be quiet for a while. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info" Liu Qianqian said in a low voice, then followed in the footsteps of Master Liu and went out.
In fact, Liu Qianqian is also strange, it stands to reason that the second aunt has just been locked up, and she should be able to live in peace for a while, and she shouldn't do it to Aunt Hu at this time, thinking about it, but she can't figure out who this person will be? She also suspected that it was Aunt Li, but she quickly denied this idea, Aunt Li is afraid that it will be difficult to come out in this life, so who is more in this house has no big impact on her.
Liu Qianqian thought that Master Liu had already asked Steward Sun to gather all the people in the small kitchen, because Master Liu was going back to his house today, and there were more things, and at this time, all the people who worked in the small kitchen were still here.
"Come on, light a torch. "Master Liu, this is to carefully make the expressions of all the subordinates not clear.
Zhang Tao brought a few people over with torches, and after a while, the courtyard of the small kitchen was brightly lit.
Old Man Liu coldly glanced at the people standing in the courtyard for a week, and then asked, "Steward Sun, who collected the haggis left by the eldest lady?"
As soon as Steward Sun heard Master Liu's question, he knew that there was something wrong with the haggis, so he hurriedly stepped forward and replied: "It was put in the small kitchen by the old man after he built it, and he didn't borrow it from others." ”
"Then did you put anything in that haggis?" asked Master Liu with a calm face.
"No, no, the old slave just covered it with a piece of cotton cloth and did nothing else. When Steward Sun said this, his legs were already trembling slightly, obviously because there was a problem in the small kitchen, and he couldn't bear it.
"Is there anyone else, close to the haggis cook?" asked Master Liu continued.
Liu Qianqian ordered the people around her to move three chairs, let Master Liu sit in front, and she and Dongfang Yanjin sat behind Master Liu respectively.
Steward Sun thought for a long time before replying: "The small kitchen has a lot of work today, and many people have been to the small cabinet. ”
After listening to Steward Sun's words, Master Liu coldly glanced at everyone again, and said fiercely: "Those who have been to the small cabinet have stood up." ”
Sure enough, as Steward Sun said, five or six stood up before and after.
"Tell me what you did when you went to the small cabinet?" said Master Liu in a deep voice.
Subordinates, you look at me, I see that you are not willing to be the first to speak, and then it was Steward Sun who made a look, and a little woman wearing a light blue flower cloth demon took the lead and opened her mouth.
"The first time was when I got the order of Steward Sun, and I went to the small cabinet and got new chopsticks. ”
Master Liu didn't make a sound when he heard this, but just looked at Steward Sun, who received Master Liu's gaze and nodded hurriedly, "It was the old slave who asked Li San's daughter-in-law to go over and get it." “
With this one at the beginning, the next few also explained the reason, three of them were also ordered by Steward Sun, and the remaining two were brought together when cleaning the kitchen, so they could testify to each other, and the situation in the courtyard fell into a dilemma for a while.
When Master Liu saw this, his heart moved, and he wanted to drive everyone out of the small kitchen. At this moment, Liu Qianqian, who was sitting behind Master Liu, lay in his ear and whispered a few words, Master Liu nodded, and said to the person standing below: "Whoever can provide clues about the person who did the tricks, I will leave her in the mansion and raise her to the top, if I can't find it, I will find someone and sell you to the mansion together." ”
As soon as they heard Master Liu's words, the people below immediately began to whisper.
Master Liu coughed lightly, quieted everyone down, glanced at Steward Sun, and said in a deep voice: "Steward Sun, you should start first." “
Steward Sun hurriedly stepped forward and replied, "Back to the master, the old slave has no clues." “
"Let's stand aside first, who will be next?" Master Liu waved his hand and asked Steward Sun to stand aside.
The third daughter-in-law of Li, who was the first to speak before, stepped forward again and said, "The maid didn't see it either." ”
Master Liu pointed to the other side and said, "You stand on the other side, if no one is willing to provide clues, you can stand separately according to age, and it is convenient for people to give a price." ”
What Master Liu said was light and light, but in the hearts of the people in the small kitchen, it caused an uproar. Master Liu waited for a long time, and when he saw that no one had stepped forward to speak, he said again: "Since you haven't said anything, then consciously stand up according to the two groups, and I will ask the old housekeeper to invite someone to Yazi." ”
"The old man spares his life, the old slave said. A familiar voice came, Liu Qianqian raised her eyes, and saw that it was the mother-in-law who had lit the fire for herself before, so she cast a meaningful look at Steward Sun who was standing on the side, Steward Sun smiled awkwardly, and wanted to explain something, but because of the presence of Master Liu, it was not easy to come forward.
Liu Qianqian didn't look at him anymore, just looked at the fire-burning woman who was standing at the bottom, talking endlessly.
The old slave looked at the old Ye Tou as a scheming person, not only took the eldest lady's money, but also took a lot of sheep into the water before leaving. ”
When Liu Qianqian heard this, she couldn't help but chuckle out loud, and interjected: "You mother-in-law, what do I say about you! It's okay if your hands and feet are not clean, and your mouth is as stinky as a spittoon, and you can easily splash dirty water on others, and you can bear it in your heart?"
Seeing Liu Qianqian like this, Master Liu couldn't help frowning and turned his head and asked, "What's going on with that old leaf head today?"
According to the rules of the house, whoever kills the sheep for the house, those sheep go into the water, and the sheep blood will be given to that person, Qianqian is interested today, and wants to turn it upside down, but if Qianqian is tough to stay, this is not in accordance with the distance, so he rewarded Uncle Ye with a few silver coins. As for the back, he took the sheep into the water and left, but Qianqian agreed, because Uncle Ye helped me a lot, not to mention the distance, the sheep water and sheep bones were all picked up by him. Qianqian heard that Uncle Ye had no son and only one granddaughter, and she felt pity for him in her heart, so she asked him to bring some food back. Liu Qianqian explained softly.
"That's right, but you're really sure that there's no problem with the old leaf. Master Liu confirmed uneasily.
"There must be no problem, Lao Ye said that there is no reason to do this, one is that I don't know that I will make haggis soup for the fifth aunt to eat, and the other is that he doesn't have that opportunity, all the things I asked Meng Yao to wrap for him, and it didn't go through his hands. Liu Qianqian said softly.
"Didn't you just say that he picked up everything for you, could it be the poison at that time?"
"No, Dad may not have noticed it just now, the safflowers are all raw, if he moved his hands and feet at that time, I'm afraid the safflowers are not in this state, these safflowers should not have been put in for a long time, only a little faded feeling. Liu Qianqian analyzed calmly.
When Master Liu heard Liu Qianqian say this, he was relieved, looked at the burning woman and said, "Okay, although the eldest lady refuted what you said, she also thought about it seriously, so let's stand on the other side for the time being." (To be continued.) )
