Chapter 85

The little girl saw that my eyes were red and swollen, and her face was stunned, so she dared to ask, "Second ...... Second Miss, what's wrong with you? ”

I didn't want to be seen like this, but she clearly reported that it was Uncle He's father, and the uninvited Minister He on March 3 came, no, now I should call Minister He. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info This makes me can't help but go, what kind of tricks does he come to pose? On the first day of the new calendar year, don't all such government officials have to hold a New Year's report and a sorority dance at the provincial government office? My sister said that Mr. Gu had invited her to attend in the evening, so why did Minister He come to our house at such a busy time?

I told the little girl to fetch water for me, wash my face and refresh, and then slowly climbed up from the edge of the bed.

The little girl in the azure cotton dress was coming up from downstairs with things for washing, and in the golden copper basin, various towels for washing her face were neatly arranged, on which were placed apple green, amber, smoke blue, pink, bamboo green and other different colors of essential oils. This is the tradition of washing in Liufu since the heirloom, no matter the change of dynasties and the change of the world, some things are still deeply rooted in our bones.

I looked at these glass bottles of uniform size and color, and couldn't help but smile bitterly, is it because of these that people covet them? I couldn't figure it out, so I let the basin of warm water pour on my face, watched it fall down one by one, and adjusted my mentality.

"Second Miss, I brought you ice cubes to put on your eyes, you can put it on and then go."

The little girl said, handing over a dozen ice cubes wrapped in cotton cloth. I saw that she was so attentive that I couldn't help but look sideways at the person who had just looked at me timidly.

"What's your name, I haven't seen you before." I asked.

"Second Miss Hui, I am Jade, and Xiaoqing is my sister."

"You're Xiaoqing's sister?" I was surprised that after Xiaoqing's death, Han's mother only said that she had taken her family to the house, but she did not say that she was her sister.

"Do you have anyone else in your house?"

"I am the only one in Nanjing, and there was originally my mother and younger brother, but after my sister died, they moved away, and my lord gave them a maintenance fee, so my mother and younger brother went back to their hometown in Anhui. But my sister's death is unknown, and I want to stay to take revenge, so the old lady arranged for me to be an errand in the backyard. It was probably the first time she said so many words, and the whole person trembled slightly with excitement, she looked at me, and suddenly knelt down and said: "Ask Miss to fulfill me, I know that she took care of you when Mother Han was there, but now that Mother Han is gone, Jade is willing to serve Miss, just ask Miss to help me find out the truth and give my sister justice." She finished and kowtowed three times to me.

I looked at her with a complicated expression. She said that she wanted to avenge Xiaoqing, but did she know that her sister Xiaoqing was killed by someone? On that day, my sister and I looked at each other clearly, Xiaoqing avoided everyone and gave a piece of information to that person, and after getting paid, he was killed and killed to prevent future troubles. I can't say that she died innocently, but at least, it was she who betrayed our family first, but for this reason, should I tell the girl in front of me?

I hesitated, not knowing how to parry the girl's earnest gaze.

"Miss, don't you agree with Jade serving you?" Just as he was hesitating, Jade who was kneeling on the ground had already asked a question. "No, you get up first. Speaking of which, our Liu family can't stand your sister, and if you don't protect her, you get up first. "After thinking about it, I decided to take a compromise first, and not mention revenge for the time being.

"Don't worry, our family has been investigating who the murderer was that day, not only you are anxious, me, my father, mother, sister, and everyone in the family are very anxious, people are so rampant, one after another, and repeatedly trapped our family in danger, we will not ignore it. This is no longer the hatred of you alone, but the hatred of all of us, the hatred of the entire Liu Mansion. So jadeite, even if you don't mention it, we will actively pursue it. I got up and went to help her, but the girl was still on her knees.

"I know that the old lady will go to check, but now that the eldest lady is about to get married, the house has been busy with the eldest lady's marriage for the past few days, and I am afraid that I can't take care of the previous things. I heard that the police department has already had clues about the prisoner, but the government has been slow to let people go to investigate the matter thoroughly, and I know that the young lady used to go to school outside, and she is more knowledgeable and knowledgeable than me. So, if Miss can come forward and take this piece first, we may not miss the opportunity. ”

The National Police Agency already has a clue? Why didn't I know, and my father and sister didn't say it?

Things seem to have returned to square one, who knows everything about the family, and through whom it is spread to the servants? Why is Jade's news better than that of her sister? She said she had heard what people had said, but who had said it? These questions are like a difficult twine, and we have been walking around it for a long time, only to find that in the end we are back to square one, and we don't know anything. I looked at Jade and couldn't help but become solemn, so I knelt down and looked at her levelly, trying to have a deeper communication with this little girl who was completely different just now.

"Jade, you know that I don't have much time now, Minister He is still waiting for me to meet in the front hall, you suddenly said so much to me, I can't help but doubt it. I hope I can help you and I hope to save our family. So, if you really trust me, or if I can trust you, you have to answer a few questions to me, would you like to? ”

Jade listened, as if she had made a lot of determination, only to see her face down, silently staring at the dark green stone bricks on the floor for a moment, waiting for the sun to reflect the shadow of the stone bricks, time passed little by little, then raised her head again, looked at me word by word and said: "Jade has been favored by her sister since she was a child, and her mother was going to send me to Liu's mansion on an errand that day, and she wanted my sister to stay at home." It was my sister who saw that I was young, so I was asked to stay, otherwise, maybe it would not be me but my sister who is kneeling here today. I know that Miss's hesitation may be due to another hidden reason for her sister's death, but Jade has not changed her original intention, and she still wants to avenge her sister. Excuse me, Miss! ”

"You are very smart, really, your sister has you, and she doesn't love you in vain." I looked at her resolute little face and sincerely admired the firmness and delicacy of the woman in front of me.

"I can't hide it, your sister was killed by someone, not innocent as rumored to have died."

"You're saying sister, she knows something she shouldn't know?"

"I don't know what she knew, all I can tell you is that she was stabbed to death by the man who killed her after passing the information to him."

"Sister, she...... You...... You mean, sister, she...... Be...... Is it a spy? ”
