Chapter 124: Perceiving the Clues (2nd Update)
Sycamore Garden. Jin Xin was sitting there embroidering things, Ziqin walked in from outside, and whispered in her ear: "Miss, the second miss just went out." β
As soon as the needlework in his hand stopped, Jin Xin turned his head slightly and glanced at Ziqin: "How many people did you bring?" β
"I brought Bingqian with me, the sedan chair man is not from our house, and I don't know where to find it."
Jin Xin thought for a while and asked, "Did you find someone to follow?" β
"According to the young lady's instructions, I followed. Those people were arranged by Huang Gongzi, and they are good at this aspect, and they are all quite scientific research, so they will follow suit. β
"That's good. Go back and tell me about the situation. β
"I know."
Jin Xin nodded, didn't speak again, and continued to be busy with his embroidery work.
*At night.
"Miss, where did this Sister Ziqin run away again? It's been a long time, and I haven't seen her figure, could it be that she sneaked somewhere to play? β
Ziqi was collecting the dishes and chopsticks, and while collecting them, he asked Jin Xin.
Jin Xin was eating tea, listened to the words of chess, and said with a smile: "Go and play?" Chess, something like that, seems more like you would do it, right? β
"Oh, miss, you're making fun of me!"
Ziqi pouted: "Where am I that kind of person!" β
"Where are you not like that?"
Zhang's mother accosted on the side: "I see, you are the most like person in this world, you don't do things well all day long, you just think about the law and are lazy and playful, do you think I don't know?" The loss is that our young lady has a good temper and doesn't care about you, if you meet those mean masters, you have good fruit to eat! β
Although Ziqi is fifteen years old, he is still a child's heart, especially when he doesn't deal with Zhang's mother, listening to Zhang's mother taking the opportunity to count herself, she immediately straightened up: "Zhang's mother, how did I find out that you have been getting more and more troublesome with me recently!" As soon as you have the opportunity, you can tell the young lady that I am not, aren't you annoyed! β
"Hey, you think I'm not annoyed? I hate it! So you, can you be down-to-earth and do more things? β
"Mother Zhang, you ......"
Jin Xin saw that the two were about to quarrel again, and hurriedly interrupted them in a timely manner: "Okay, okay, okay, you have to quarrel elsewhere, don't quarrel in front of me, really, you have to quarrel every time, can you make my ears quieter?" β
Seeing that Jin Xin was unhappy, Zhang's mother was busy smiling a few times with a smile, and she didn't continue to worry about chess, so she picked up a few saucers in her hand and went out first.
Ziqi was a few steps behind Zhang's mother, and was about to go out, but suddenly stopped at the door, turned to look at Jin Xin: "Miss, you haven't sued me yet, what did Sister Ziqin do?" She seems to be very busy lately, and she runs out at every turn, but you don't go out much, miss. β
"Naturally, it's for me to do things, otherwise you think I'll stay here like this?"
Jin Xin responded lightly.
As soon as the words fell, I saw a person coming from the courtyard, looking at the figure, it was Ziqin, she smiled and said, "Say that everyone will arrive." Okay, Ziqi, your sister Ziqin is back, don't worry about it, go and get busy with your go. β
Ziqin walked in, just heard Jin Xin's words, and was puzzled: "What's wrong?" β
"It's nothing, I haven't seen you for most of the day, Ziqi is worried about it, ask me why you went."
When Ziqin heard this, she turned her head to look at Ziqi, raised her hand and touched her head: "Naturally, I'm busy." I'm sorry, I've had a lot of things to do for Miss lately, and I have to do a lot of things in this Wutong Garden, so I've worked hard for you. β
Ziqi pouted and said, "It's nothing. I'm just curious, Sister Ziqin, you are busy all day long, what did the young lady tell you to do, you were so busy with Cheng DΓΉ......"
Ziqin smiled silently.
Ziqi also knew each other, knowing that the two of them must have something to talk about, and they didn't use the pestle as wood here, so they went out with dishes and chopsticks.
"Miss, I see that Ziqi really wants to help, do you want her to help too?"
Ziqin looked at Ziqi and left lonely, and said to Jin Xin.
Jin Xin shook his head and said, "It's not that it can't be, it's just that it's not suitable now." Now at the beginning, many things require stability, that girl is too lively, and she has no patience to do things, impatient, I really don't feel at ease to leave things in her hands to deal with. Let's take a look again, wait for a year or two, wait for the business to stabilize, and her temperament is more mature, I'll see if she wants to do it. It's just that, before that, you, as my right-hand man, have to work harder. β
Ziqin smiled: "Miss, although I order, I like to do it." β
Jin Xin looked at Ziqin and said with a smile: "I saw it earlier, you are a workaholic." β
"Workaholic? What's that? β
"Okay, that's going to be on that later. Everything in the shop has been taken care of, right? β
"Yes, it's all taken care of. Although because of rumors, the business during this period of time is not as good as before, but fortunately, some small activities have been launched recently, and some crisis management has been done, so there is no problem for the time being, and it is quite stable. I have already assigned things according to Miss's instructions, and I think there will be some improvements in the future. β
"Hmm. That's good. β
Jin Xin nodded, took another sip of tea, and asked, "By the way, how is the second sister's affairs investigated?" β
"Oh, I was about to say that."
Ziqin took a few steps closer, lowered her voice and said, "Miss, the second miss went to the medicine hall in the east of the city in the afternoon. β
"Yaolu Hall? Is it a drugstore? β
"Yes. The owner's surname is Ke, and he is a traveling doctor, although he opened this medicine hall, he travels most of the time and doesn't live here. Moreover, because the place is relatively remote and the reputation of Yaolutang is not big, almost no one knows that there is a pharmacy there except for the people around. β
"Drugstore ......"
Jin Xin stroked the rim of the cup with his fingertips and said to himself, "What is the second sister doing there?" β
"Are you going to buy a tocolytic?"
Since learning that she is pregnant, the old lady and aunt have been extra careful about her body, and have invited the best doctor to diagnose her pulse, and the fetal medicine used is also the best, which can be said to be readily available, the most safe and convenient, if you want to buy the fetal medicine, let the next person go to the pharmacy to buy it? Why bother to go to such a remote place yourself? β
Ziqin thought about it: "In this way, if it is said that it is impossible to diagnose the pulse......
"That's it."
"So, what is the second lady going to do there? And he went sneakily, as if there was something he couldn't let people know. β
"I'm curious about how my second sister found such a pharmacy through guΓ², but what makes me even more curious is the motivation behind her qiΔ action, which must be hidden some secret that no one can know...... It won't ......"
