86_86270 Water Lotus is transparent: "Miss who understands the slave, don't worry, the slave washed clothes for the big family when she was a child, and I know the doorway in the backyard." ”

Qin Mengdie asked Shuilian: "Do you know how to cook?" If you can, try to do as much kitchen work as possible, put Sister-in-law Li's position in the air, let her want to leave, and there are no outsiders who don't call themselves slaves, we are all family, if you call yourself a slave, you will be separated from me. "This word slave, Qin Mengdie really doesn't accept it.

"Miss, don't worry, the slave will try to persuade Sister-in-law Li to leave, even if it doesn't work, it won't make you doubt you, oops, I said the slave again, I'll change it."

Qin Mengdie felt that she had picked up the treasure, and this girl was clever: "Okay, you look at it, I believe in you." ”

Shuilian went out to work, and Shan Xing came in to teach Qin Mengdie to write, and in the afternoon, she was still a female celebrity, laughing and playing. When Sister-in-law Li came back, she still practiced swords as always.

After dinner in the evening, Shuilian and Sister-in-law Li cleaned up the kitchen together. Shuilian said: "Sister-in-law Li has been in this courtyard for a few years, right? I heard that you were originally from the courtyard of your aunt, how can you be willing to be in this dream courtyard? I bought it back by Miss, I am a Miss's person in life and death, I admit it, but you are different, how thick the oil and water are with my aunt, and I can save for myself a pension in the future. ”

Sister-in-law Li herself is a person who likes to talk, but no one in this courtyard speaks, and finally there are newcomers who talk to her, and she also has concerns, but she said implicitly: "Auntie has a good heart, I cook deliciously, isn't this specially for me to serve the eldest lady to rest assured." But recently, my aunt's health is not so good, and sometimes she wants to eat the dishes I cook. But I'm afraid that Miss will get used to me here, and she won't let me go back again. You girl is a lover to say, you will be lonely in this yard in the future. ”

Shuilian smiled bitterly: "I was bought, can I still choose, so I don't have any ideas, I just hope that Miss will marry well in the future, and I will also enjoy happiness, don't we all depend on the fate of our master to determine our fate, you have a good backer like your aunt is something we can't envy, I went to the treasury at noon and heard that the aunt's rewards are real money, but I don't care, I can't marry in my life, unlike Sister-in-law Li, you have a family." ”

Sister-in-law Li's face changed when she heard the reward, and she said a little sourly: "There's no way, I'm now in our Dream Courtyard, and if I want to go back, I have to look at the master." You straight girl, don't talk nonsense. ”

Shuilian saw that Sister-in-law Li was tempted, and she was not in a hurry: "I have this character, what do you say, Sister-in-law Li don't take it to heart, you will leave the kitchen work to me in the future, you can cook delicious and teach me, I have learned this, one day the eldest aunt wants to eat the food you cooked, you go back, and I am still here." ”

Sister-in-law Li looked at Shuilian and was happy, she also wanted to hand over all the work in her hand so that she could go back to the eldest aunt's courtyard, she had stayed in this place for three years, and there was no reward at all. The more I thought about it, the more I felt that I couldn't stay any longer: "Shuilian, then I'll start teaching you how to cook tomorrow, I'll give you everything you know, and if I really go back in the future, you can also take my job." ”

"Sister-in-law Li is really generous, you can't teach outsiders this housekeeping skill, I will do this work in the future, Sister-in-law Li, you will rest." Shui Lian looked at Sister-in-law Li with grateful eyes.

Sister-in-law Li cleaned up and happily went out to other yards.

Shui Lian entered Qin Mengdie's house, Shui Ling was also there, Qin Mengdie looked at her and had something to say: "You say, except for Sister-in-law Li, our courtyard is our own people, don't worry." ”

Shui Lian told the conversation with Sister-in-law Li, and Qin Mengdie nodded with satisfaction: "Don't be too anxious, if you want to hurry, you won't be able to reach it." ”

"Now Sister-in-law Li is more anxious than us, and she will start asking me to cook her specialty dish tomorrow, so she has made up her mind to leave." The water lotus was a little excited.

Shui Ling was a little anxious when he saw that Shuilian had made a meritorious service: "Miss, what can I do?" ”

Qin Mengdie saw Shui Ling's thoughts and said: "Everyone has something suitable for themselves, don't worry, we have a lot of big things for you to do in the future." ”

After dinner, Qin Mengdie changed into men's clothes and climbed over the wall and went out of the yard. Recently, she doesn't often go to the first floor, but to visit the nearby restaurants, taste each dish, and then see if there is a restaurant restaurant, these days to see a few good, I am also slowly inspecting, some of the foothold is good, the flow of customers is large, some of the decoration is high-grade, the price has been roughly asked how to get two or three thousand taels of silver, plus some of the purchase of the opening or something, as well as hiring people, you have to prepare three thousand taels. Three thousand taels didn't know how much money they were now, and they didn't know how much money they had, so they had to go back and discuss it with Shui Ling.

When I got home, I went to see the sleeping smile, and then called Shui Ling in and asked, "How much silver do we have?" I'm going to do some business. ”

Shui Ling replied a little implicitly: "It's okay to live, but it's probably not enough to do business." ”

Qin Mengdie also understood the meaning of Shui Ling: "You can calculate how much you can have, and then find out all the jewelry I can sell and sell it, how much can I make up for it?" ”

"Miss, you never buy jewelry, your ones can't be sold for a price, and the lady's dowry has been taken away by the old lady and the eldest aunt in the past few years, and there are only one hundred taels left in the silver ticket, or the eldest lady asked me to hide it for Miss in the past, and this can't be moved unless it is a last resort." The voice of the water spirit is getting quieter and quieter......

Speaking of which, if you remove the worthless and can't be moved, it's gone? Qin Mengdie sat at the head of the bed a little lost and frowned and asked, "Didn't my mother have any private money or anything before?" ”

Shui Ling's eyes suddenly lit up: "Miss, do you remember the year I first came, the two of us played hide and seek, hid in the cabinet, and then secretly saw the eldest lady digging up a floor tile in the northeast corner of the flower hall, putting something in it, and burying it again. ”

Qin Mengdie stood up happily: "I don't remember, but there is hope for it, but where did my mother live before?" And which brick are you talking about? ”

"The courtyard where the eldest lady used to live is now occupied by the eldest aunt, so it's inconvenient for us to go in." Shui Ling looked at Qin Mengdie a little embarrassed.

Qin Mengdie is not worried, he doesn't have any supernatural martial arts, but it is not difficult to sneak into a woman's yard, how can he also be an armed policeman

"You don't have to worry about this, I can go in, you can draw me the layout of my aunt's yard, and then think carefully about which brick my mother buried back then."

Shui Ling took the pen and drew on the paper several times before drawing a rough idea, and Qin Mengdie verified it with her twice

"Prepare night clothes for me, I'll go in tonight, it's just when the moon is short, it's not bright enough, and it's not convenient to wait, so as not to have too many dreams at night."

Midnight was dark and dreary, as if an infinite thick ink was heavily smeared on the horizon, with only the glimmer of a few stars. Qin Mengdie's night clothes blended with the night, and her flexible body trotted all the way along the wall to the aunt's Tangli Courtyard, this courtyard is not small, two in and two out, she recalled in her mind according to the drawings drawn by Shui Ling, climbed into the courtyard wall, and dived directly to the main house, the door was closed, and there was a napping watchwoman at the door, Qin Mengdie pried open the window in the corner of the wall, turned over and jumped into the flower hall, counted the floor tiles, took out the dagger and lifted the floor tiles to find a small wooden box, took out the wooden box, laid the bricks and quickly withdrew.

When passing by the thatched house, I heard a voice, and two little maids came to make it convenient. Qin Mengdie hurriedly hid behind the wall, wanting to wait for someone to finish before leaving.

I only heard a little maid say: "Chunlan, you said that the eldest lady's difficult birth back then would not really be caused by the eldest aunt, right?" I heard Zhang's mother and Li's mother say that the eldest lady gave birth to the young master in advance after drinking the tonic medicine given by the eldest aunt. ”

The maid named Chunlan said: "Qiuyue is quiet, if the eldest aunt hears it, we don't want to live, but the battle in this backyard, the poor ones are these young ladies and young masters, you look at the little young master in the yard of the eldest aunt, and he is in charge of eating and drinking, but he is not his own, if the master does not come, the eldest aunt will not look at the little young master, and the eldest lady has become wooden and silent, and I don't know how to marry in the future." ”

The little girl named Qiuyue said: "I heard that the eldest lady had a family affair when she was a child, and she was the son of the prime minister, but I heard the second lady and the eldest aunt say that day that I wanted the second lady to replace her......"

Chunlan hurriedly interrupted her: "Don't say it, keep saying this, let people hear that the two of us will die, hurry up and go back to sleep." The two hurried out of the hut and turned back to their own house.

Qin Mengdie summed up in her heart, listening to the corner of the wall is really the fastest way to get information, so her mother was killed by the eldest lady, and the second sister Qin Mengxin wants to be unfavorable to herself, so she won't want to kill herself, but it shouldn't be, if you want to kill early, as long as you don't die, there will be countermeasures, what should you do with your younger brother? If you have time to sneak in at night, you have something important in your hand today, you have to go back quickly, she trotted all the way back to the dream courtyard with the wooden box, and as soon as she entered the door, she saw Shui Ling pacing back and forth anxiously on the ground
