Chapter 029
Compared with the things made by Zhao Youcai's family, the Feng family's mistakes are much greater, that is, it is enough to report to the officials. Therefore, although Zhang used thunder methods, everyone had to be convinced. The eldest lady even folded her own companion room, what else do others have to say?
Fu Jun also sighed softly in the western room.
This should be the end of the matter today. The big house and the second room each lost one person, and generally speaking, the big house suffered some losses. Fortunately, there is nothing to do in the third room, which is also the result that Fu Jun wants.
However, at this moment, Fu Jun suddenly heard a very immature voice, and said tremblingly: "Go back to the big ...... Big lady, maid...... One thing comes to mind. ”
This is not a small voice, not to mention that the room is very quiet in the first place, so everyone in the middle of the house and under the porch heard this sentence.
Fu Jun looked at the place where the voice came from, but saw that it was a little girl in her early tens, with a delicate appearance and flexible eyes, and she looked a little smart. She was wearing a lilac shirt and pants, standing behind Jia's mother, looking at Zhang timidly.
Zhang seemed to be surprised, although Fu Jun couldn't see her expression, he could hear the surprise in her voice: "Whose girl are you?" Where to be on an errand? ”
Mother Jia hurriedly stepped forward and said with a smile: "Back to the eldest lady, this girl was just picked up from below, and now she is learning the rules from the old slave, called Hui'er." ”
"It turned out to be a newcomer, so strange to be so eye-catching." Zhang said, immediately looked at Hui'er twice, and said with a smile: "It's still a clean child." But he didn't ask about Hui'er's rhetoric.
Hui'er opened her mouth, glanced at Zhang again, and then took two steps forward as if she had finally made up her mind, and her voice was still trembling...... The servant has something to return. ”
Zhang was silent, but glanced sideways at Jia's mother. But I saw Jia's mother lowering her eyes and hands, staring intently at the ground under her feet, as if she was unaware of what was happening in front of her.
Fu Jun heard Zhang's sigh imperceptibly, and then asked Hui'er, "What's the matter?" ”
"The servant once saw it, and there was a ...... Someone has gone into the storage of the large kitchen...... Storeroom. "Hui'er is timid. As he spoke, he raised his head uneasily, his eyes blinking twice unconsciously.
She's lying!
This was Fu Jun's first reaction.
From the time Hui'er spoke, Fu Jun had been observing her. She blinked her eyes at normal frequency during the first few words, except that when she said this, her eyes blinked twice.
There are several types of lying micro-expressions, and blinking unconsciously is one of them.
Looking at this delicate little girl, Fu Jun had an alarm bell in her head. She couldn't help but walk to the door, hide herself in the heavy curtain, and observe Hui'er more closely through the gap.
Fu Jun's move was really strange, and Mama Jiang and Shi Jiang glanced at each other, but they didn't say much. They also heard the little girl's words, things suddenly turned around, and they were faintly uneasy in their hearts, and Fu Jun's reaction was also reasonable.
But I heard Cui's voice and asked, "Oh, you've seen someone enter the big kitchen." Tell me when you saw it? Who is it that you see? ”
Hui'er said: "Back to the second wife's words, the maid was seen by the previous child, that person...... That's a ...... Beautiful big sister. When she said "beautiful big sister", Hui'er's eyes blinked twice.
"Make things clear." Cui said.
"Yes." Hui'er said timidly, "Before the morning, the maid was sent to the big flower hall to help scrub the utensils, and after finishing the errand, the housekeeper's mother went to the big kitchen with the maid, and passed a word to Zhao's mother, and the maid went to the big kitchen." ”
The "Mother Zhao" in her mouth is Zhao Youcai's family.
I heard Hui'er continue: "The maid went to the big kitchen, but she didn't find Zhao's mother, and a sister-in-law said that Zhao's mother was in the warehouse in the courtyard next to her, so the maid went to the courtyard next to her." At this, Hui'er's eyes blinked twice.
"And then?" Choi asked again.
Then the servant called twice outside the courtyard gate, but no one answered. The servant didn't dare to go in, so he walked back, but just after turning a corner, he heard a sound behind him. Servant ...... The maid was curious for a moment, so she leaned against the wall and peeked at it, and saw that it was a ...... She was a very well-born big sister, and she hurried out of the small courtyard and went west. ”
When she said this, Hui'er didn't blink again. There was almost no expression on her face, and she memorized the above paragraph as if she were reciting it.
Micro-expression theorem: When people tell a lie, they will not have an expression corresponding to their speech, and will often have no expression at all. In other words, none of Hui'er's words are true.
Cui's voice came coldly, and asked, "This matter is serious, why didn't you say it?" ”
Hui'er was so frightened that her body trembled, and she said tremblingly: "Back to the second wife, the maid is also a genius...... Fang Cai saw Feng's mother's face, felt familiar, and remembered that the maid had seen this mother in the big kitchen before. Later, I remembered what the eldest lady said before, such as the warehouse, poria powder, and chestnut noodles, and the maid suddenly thought of this matter. ”
That sounds reasonable. Fang Cai was the first to arrive in the Feng family, kneeling in front of the hall. Jia's mother was later, sitting on the side. From Hui'er's point of view, it is true that the Feng family's face cannot be seen. Until the Feng family was dragged out, she thought that she saw it at that time, so she remembered the past.
However, Fu Jun didn't care what she said. Words are the most deceiving, but micro-expressions are not, because they are instinctive human reactions. Hui'er is definitely lying, but what is the purpose of her lying? Who is the "big sister" she said?
At this time, I heard Zhang's words: "You have remembered, but do you still remember the appearance of that maid?" ”
Hui'er nodded hurriedly and said, "Slave remember." Because the eldest sister was very good-looking, the maid stared at it several times. The servant saw that between her left eye and the bridge of her nose, there was a rouge mole. ”
As soon as these words came out, Wang's back stiffened suddenly, Fu Jun tightened the curtain in his hand, and the Cui family and the Zhang family in the hall turned their heads in unison and looked at Wang.
There was a rouge mole between the left eye and the bridge of the nose, and it was born very beautiful, and only one person in the Manfu met these two conditions, which was Wang's personal maid Liufeng.
Because of her outstanding appearance, Wang didn't ask her to go out. However, she was born really well, and her limited appearances also made people in the house remember her. Therefore, as soon as Hui'er said it, both the Cui family and the Zhang family immediately reacted.
Wang Shi calmed down at this time. She picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, and asked Hui'er: "Are you sure that the sky before yesterday was in the warehouse of the big kitchen, and you saw a beautiful maid with a rouge mole coming out of it?" ”
"Sure, son." Hui'er's tone was very affirmative, but her eyes blinked twice.
The dead girl is still lying! Fu Jun cursed in his heart.
As soon as Hui'er's words came out, the initiator of the chestnut face incident immediately turned to Sanfang. Everyone will think, Liufeng is Wang's personal maid, why is it so coincidental, just the day before the Mid-Autumn Festival, what did she do? Is the chestnut noodles in Poria powder related to the third room? There was no Poria powder from the Feng family's home, and the Feng family's other strength was that she didn't do it, could it be ......
Everyone hasn't forgotten that the shopping errand of the big kitchen was only transferred from the third room to the second room. Such a Qiao Zong'er was robbed, does Sanfang really have no guilt about it?
In addition, in addition to the Zhang family, there is also a Mrs. Hou. Fu Geng and Mrs. Hou had an affair because of Qiaoyun, and it is not a secret in the mansion. asked someone to mix chestnut noodles in Poria powder to make Mrs. Hou unhappy, Fu Geng can really do this kind of thing!
If you think about it like this, it is really logical that this matter comes from the third room, and there is no need to find a reason, it is all ready-made.
For a while, Zhang's eyes looked at Wang's eyes a little unpredictable, and Cui's eyes even showed a faint hint of joy. If this matter can be transferred to the third room, maybe the Feng family will be able to ......
But after a second thought, Cui rejected the idea. The main culprit of the Feng family is greed for ink. The Zhang family did not say it explicitly, but the Cui family knew that the hundred flowers jade syrup was specially bought by Fu Zhuang to honor Mrs. Hou, and the Feng family's use of this is enough to punish the crime, and the Poria cocos powder is still second.
The three people in the hall had their own thoughts, but Fu Jun in the western room was thinking hard about how to break the situation.
The only cracking point in this matter lies with Hui'er. As long as it is proved that she is lying, she can return the innocence of the third room. And looking at his micro-expression, from the big flower hall to the part where he went to the kitchen to pass the word, it should be the truth. What happened after that was all a lie.
Now the question is, how? Fu Jun couldn't help frowning and pondering
At this time, he cleared his throat and said to Hui'er: "What you girl said is not true. The treasury is guarded every day, how can there be no one? But another maid came out of it. ”
Hui'er hurriedly said: "The maid really saw it...... I saw people coming out. He blinked twice more.
Wang pondered for a moment, and then said to Zhang and Cui: "Two sisters-in-law, I'm afraid that I have to send the housekeeper mother of the treasury to ask." ”
Zhang nodded and said, "That's what I mean." "The people in the big kitchen are still locked up in the room. Things haven't been figured out yet, and they can't come out.
The steward of the treasury soon arrived, and the Wang family asked her about it, but the result of the questioning was very unfavorable to the third room.
It turned out that on that day, because she was going to prepare for the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet the next day, Guan Ku's mother went into the room for a while to count the seafood and dry goods, and there was no one in the house where the rice and noodles were placed in front of her. And because he was afraid that someone would come and pick up something at any time, the door of the storehouse was not locked.
According to Guan Ku's mother, she didn't hear anyone come in. But she didn't dare to guarantee it. After all, she was in the back room, and it was not impossible for someone to sneak into the outer room.
Zhang reprimanded the mother twice, scolding her for not opening the door of the warehouse and not guarding herself. However, she has always been diligent and honest, but she did not take it seriously, and only punished her for three months.
