Chapter 212: The Sachet Case (II)
After a while, a white and fat man dressed as a butler led the three of them over. Of the three people www.biquge.info one of them is a black and thin middle-aged man who contrasts strongly with him, and the other two are only five or six years old.
The steward's surname is Hu, and he is responsible for managing a total of nine gardens in the front yard. This person was very clever, and after saluting, he introduced the person he brought without waiting for Zhihua to ask.
"I heard that the princess asked the minions about the sachet that Danlu found, so the minions asked all the subordinates under his jurisdiction, and brought all the subordinates who could recall valuable clues."
Zhihua nodded with satisfaction, picked up the sachet that the Wang sisters didn't want to take back, and asked the three of them, "Have you all seen this thing today?" ”
The three of them should be in unison. The oldest middle-aged man was the first to stand up and answer. "The small one is responsible for guarding and taking care of the plum forest on weekdays, and today I saw Danlu looking for a sachet on the order of the princess, and found the small one here from the backyard, and the little one was familiar with this forest, so he volunteered to help find it, and the sachet was the first to be found under an old plum tree."
"Full of nonsense! Our sisters had never set foot in Merlin, not even the front yard, so how could we have left the sachet there! What is your intention in colluding with Na Danlu to tell a big lie and frame our sisters? ”
Hearing this kind of testimony again, the Wang sisters reacted more fiercely than the last time, the elder sister pointed at the gardener and reprimanded, but her eyes were firmly fixed on Zhihua, whether it was the next person or the princess who was questioning, only she knew it.
Zhihua didn't care about her faux pas, but the gardener listened to the accusation but stopped doing it, and shouted injustice repeatedly. "The little one really didn't lie, when the villain saw a sachet on the grass from afar, he screamed in excitement, and many people saw it before he walked over and picked it up, and the little one really didn't lie."
After listening to the florist's sworn testimony, Mrs. Lu felt a drum in her heart, and her firm belief in her niece was also relaxed. If she asked any more questions, she would find herself in a stalemate, and she turned her gaze to the two children, hoping for a new turnaround.
"You two are also helping to find the sachets?"
In a bad mood, the tone of her question was a little unkind, and the two children were startled, and they shrunk their shoulders and did not dare to answer.
Steward Hu hurriedly stood up and apologized to Mrs. Lu.
"Don't blame Madame, this is the grandson of the dog and the big butler, who is still too young to be an errand, and plays in the garden in the front yard every day. They are small and ignorant, and please have a lot of adults, don't be like them. ”
After speaking, he turned his head and scolded in a low voice: "Stinky boy, why don't you hurry up and tell me what you saw today?" ”
The majesty of the father was probably more frightening to the child than the questioning of the strange lady, and one of the two children immediately stood up and had the courage to speak of what he had seen.
"My father......" just got up, and he was slapped in the head. Stinky boy, who made you call yourself mine in front of the nobles? Forgot how it taught you before? ”
"Careless, the child is still young, and he will slowly change his words in the future. Let him say, don't interrupt. This kid is already nervous, and he can't remember anything if you scold him again. Zhihua stopped the caregiver in displeasure, and gently comforted the child a few words, and only when he was no longer trembling did he let him continue.
"The villain's father warned the villain yesterday not to take Kuroko to the backyard to play today, and we are not allowed to run around. Kuroko and I didn't have a place to play, so we had to play hide and seek in the plum forest, where no one visited in the summer. I had a good time at first, but then I don't know why, there were two big brothers in Merlin. My father said that when he saw the guests, he must not rush and should dodge to the side, so as soon as I saw them, I pulled the sunspot and hid. Later, the two big brothers chatted a few words in Merlin, and then threw the sachet on the ground and left. I...... The little one and the sunspot could see it clearly, the two big brothers threw the sachet on the ground, and they didn't accidentally drop it, so they didn't dare to remind them out loud......"
Before the kid finished speaking, Mrs. Lu confirmed excitedly: "You say, you saw that this sachet was thrown away by two men?" ”
The three aunts and nieces of the Wang family all breathed a sigh of relief as the two children nodded violently, and Miss Wang secretly said It seems that everything is a misunderstanding, and she is really too sensitive just now.
"I see, it seems to be a misunderstanding." The princess also stood up immediately and apologized to the three of them. A good show ended hastily like this, the Wang family was happy, but the audience always felt unfinished.
A clever daughter thought about the words of the housekeeper's son, and immediately noticed that something was wrong and pointed it out loudly.
"Hey, boy, you said that the sachet should not be thrown away, why don't you pick it up?"
That's right, although this sachet doesn't look expensive, but how can you get a few copper plates if you pick it up and sell it, why doesn't this kid want it? Everyone reacted to this question, and all their attention turned to the boy to see how he answered.
Being stared at by so many people at once, the child began to get nervous again, and a pair of small hands cramped against the hem of his clothes. It took a long time to muster up the courage to spit out an astonishing sentence: "Because we heard the big brother say that it was a dirty thing when he threw it, so we didn't pick it up." ”
Dirty? Everyone was stunned, and the young lady who had just asked out loud asked asked again: "What dirty thing?" You learn what other people are saying. ”
The Hu family kid thought about it for a long time, and his little face was about to wrinkle into a meat bun. Cui'er was in a hurry to see it from the sidelines, and she couldn't hold it back, so she glared at the timid black man who had been cowering, and the child opened his mouth timidly. "That big brother said it very literally, the younger brother of the Hu family doesn't love to miss the secretary and can't live it, I ...... The villain remembers. ”
The son of the steward scratched his head embarrassedly, smiled innocently, and didn't mind his good friend exposing his old bottom in public.
As long as they can hear the shocking material, the audience doesn't care who is talking about it. Immediately, someone urged: "Remember to say it soon, I hate selling the most." ”
Kuroko instantly put away that timid style, and even put his hand behind him like an adult, obviously imitating the so-called "big brother", and as soon as he opened his mouth, he even learned his tone to the fullest.
"Hmph, I should not have listened to you if I knew that the sachet contained such a filthy thing. The big frivolous, the small Meng Lang, even if I am poor and starve to death on the streets, I will never marry such a woman back. I'm going to throw this thing here, if my brother feels sorry, he should not have me as a friend! ”
After Kuroko finished learning this passage, he didn't forget to make a gesture of flicking his sleeves at the end, which caused a lot of laughter. (To be continued.) )
