Three days later, Shopkeeper Zhu came again, his face was pale, Feng Chuan saw that he was panicked, and thought of the scoundrel a few days ago, "Shopkeeper Zhu, is that person coming back to find trouble, if so, you can report to the official." ”

Shopkeeper Zhu shook his head and said that the man had never come back, but his relatives had some things to do.

"Shopkeeper Zhu, don't worry, speak slowly!"

Feng Chuan put down what he was holding and moved his chair.

Shopkeeper Zhu sat down and began to talk about his relatives.

Early in the morning he met relatives in the bazaar, and the relatives complained that they had been throwing things away lately, and they couldn't find who did it, and the minions didn't recognize it, but his relatives insisted that this person must be someone from the courtyard.

Feng Chuan poured a bowl of tea, "What basis does he have?" ”

This......

Shopkeeper Zhu asked Feng Chuan to go over and take a look, and asked him face to face, so that Feng Chuan could know the truth of the matter.

Feng Chuan was taken by the shopkeeper Zhu and went to meet his relatives.

Look, this posture is not rich and expensive, but it is also a rich and noble person.

Seeing Fengchuan, the man hurriedly greeted him: I heard that the Fengchuan girl had solved the case, and she had missed the distance, so I forgot to forgive me.

"Where, where, you've won the prize."

A few little maids in the courtyard of the Zhu family took a look, and each lowered their heads and walked away with something like a teapot.

He doesn't look flustered and behaves appropriately.

After entering the inner hall and sitting down one after another, Shopkeeper Zhu said a few words of greeting, and then went straight to the point, "This Fengchuan is amazing, she helped me last time, otherwise I would really be framed." He said that with admiration in his eyes, he looked at Fengchuan.

The people of the Zhu family heard the introduction of the shopkeeper Zhu, and said that they had heard that there was a smart female catcher in Lin'an earlier, and they could be regarded as seeing me today.

"The folk girl is incompetent, and the two have praised it."

Feng Chuan then asked what was lost in the house?

His wife's hairpin, his daughter's clothes, his study's things, and occasionally silver taels were missing.

He listed them all. Feng Chuan has heard of curiosity, they are all rare things, and there are no treasures.

"That's all?"

-- That's all

Who would steal these worthless things.

Not to mention anything else, even if you can't sell it for a few silvers.

Feng Chuan hesitated for a while, "Master Zhu, the little girl took the liberty of asking, do you have anything more valuable than these?" ”

Master Zhu is honest. Nod. Naturally, there is.

Over the years, he has loved to collect vases and jade, and it would be a lie to say that he didn't.

That's weird. If it's a thief, why would he steal such unworthy things?

Master Zhu was also suspicious, Feng Chuan asked if there were children in the house?

She remembered the last time the young master of the miserly rich man's family stole something.

"Yes, my grandson is now seven years old, why does the girl ask that?"

As he spoke. A seven-year-old boy ran in.

She was bouncing and naughty. Feng Chuan smiled sweetly and whispered softly, "This is your little grandson, right?" ”

Master Zhu smiled and asked the little boy to call someone, and Feng Chuan waved his hand. She bent down and asked the little boy what he liked to play on weekdays.

The boy recognized life. Ran to Master Zhu.

Master Zhu looked at Feng Chuan and said with a sweeping face. The child is young.

Feng Chuan didn't mind this, just pulled out a hairpin from the bun and shook it happily at the child a few times, the child didn't react when he looked at the hairpin, and still hid behind his grandfather.

His eyes were mostly looking at Feng Chuan, not at the hairpin.

"Any questions?" Master Zhu lowered his head and looked at Sun Sun suspiciously, Feng Chuan shook his head, it didn't seem to be a child's prank.

If it was done by a slave, this person still has a conscience, but stealing some silver is, why steal those ornaments and sell them for a few dollars.

Could it be that he thinks that no one will find out about stealing something worthless?

But once a mistake is made, where can it be hidden?

Feng Chuan thought about it, if you want to steal these small things, you will definitely not leave evidence, it is better to use other methods to let them leak out by themselves.

Feng Chuan ordered the old man to call all the minions over, asked the names one by one, and asked who was serving, and then Feng Chuan picked a new servant and asked him to stay, so that the others poured a cup of tea and waited outside.

About an hour of incense, Feng Chuan opened the door, the minions outside raised their heads, she showed a smug smile on her face, Master Zhu was on the side, it seemed that she already knew who the thief was, stepped forward to ask, Feng Chuan muttered two sentences in his ear, and then raised his arm, pointed in the direction of the minion, and a little girl's cup fell to the ground instantly.

"What's wrong with you?"

Feng Chuan saw the maid trembling, obviously knowing the result.

The maid didn't wait for anyone to ask, and then admitted that she had stolen something.

"Master, the slave maid's family is poor, and he steals things out of helplessness, so he begs the master to let the slave and maid go."

Master Zhu looked at her, it was Yanzi, a maid who had been in the house for several years, and he would never have dreamed that he would steal.

Feng Chuan looked at the old man, turned his face to look at the maid called Yanzi, "The ones you stole are all worthless things, but you know that you can't move anything." ”

Yanzi said that the family is poor, and the money she earns every month is basically not enough to supplement the family, and the things she steals are not commonly used by Mrs. and Miss, but she thinks that they don't use it, and it's a pity to be idle, and there is a younger sister at home, and some things are taken back for them to use.

Feng Chuan looked at her helplessly, and took it without anyone's consent, it was not taking, it was stealing.

She looked at the old man, cried bitterly, and said that she was willing to return the things, but she really couldn't help it.

Master Zhu looked at it, asked her to get up, and whispered that he would not report to the yamen, but this family could not accommodate her, and she didn't want anything, and the salary was also settled for her.

"Everyone here today, this is the end of the matter, don't spread the word." Old Man Zhu looked at Yanzi kindly, "In this way, you can also find a good owner in the future." ”

The swallow was full of tears, and even thanked the old man for his great kindness.

When she left, Master Zhu was still curious, Feng Chuan didn't say anything to him just now, why Yanzi would admit it.

"Master, people who have done bad things are generally weak-minded, and I don't know it's her, so I didn't solve this case, but she admitted it herself."

Master Zhu praised while wondering, how could Feng Chuan be sure that the first little maid who was called in was not the one who stole things, in case she did it, then it would not be impossible to find the murderer.

"It's very simple, she's only been here for a few days, it's not enough to understand this family, not to mention the first time she comes to the ramp, no one dares to do it, why will it take a while to do it?"

Master Zhu looked at the shopkeeper and praised unconsciously, how could he recognize such a talented and talented woman.

"Master Zhu has won the award." (To be continued.) )
