Qing Shu sat down at the table, slowly opened the small clay pot, picked out some honey from the clay pot with a small spoon, and put it into the empty teacup with the small spoon. She took the teapot with boiled water on the table and filled the teacup with seven points full of boiled water. After that, she put the teapot aside, held the handle of the teaspoon and slowly stirred the water in the teacup a few times to completely melt the honey in the water.

Xiao Yu stood with his hands down, silently waiting for Qing Shu to reply. Xiao Huan and Xiao Juan, who were standing on the other side, glanced at each other and waited for Qing Shu to speak.

Qing Shu thought about the fact that Guard Luo came over early in the morning to report, that is, the family brought by Aunt Jian was guarding the position in the observation mansion last night, and after a little thought, he said, "Xiao Huan, you went to see Aunt Jian in the past, and just found an excuse to send her away." Her gaze stopped on Xiao Yu's face, and then said, "Xiao Yu called Xiao Ya to follow and see how Xiao Huan answered Aunt Jian correctly." ”

Xiaojuan pointed at herself, "Miss, what about me?" She didn't understand why she was the only one missing when she even had to go over.

Qing Shu didn't blame Xiaojuan for interjecting indiscriminately, but explained, "Xiaoyu's temperament is too soft and too honest, and he lacks the kind of tactfulness and toughness to deal with all kinds of people." Learn from Xiao Huan. As for Xiaoya, it is the age to learn all aspects of things such as receiving things and treating people, so you have to teach her well. "Little fish has to change, because the housekeeper is not so easy to be. And Xiaoya, if there is no accident, she will be the most trusted big girl around her in a few years, and she is the big girl who marries.

Xiao Huan and Xiao Yu are gone. Xiao Juan, who was not jealous at all, began to wipe the tables and chairs, and chatted with Qing Shu.

Qingshu took a sip of honey water from time to time, and watched Xiaojuan keep chattering while wiping the tables and chairs. She smiled lightly, and suddenly asked without a clue, "I heard that when I was in the capital, Gu Shishi bought snacks for you every now and then." ”

In front of Qingshu, the master, Xiaojuan is always defenseless. So, without even thinking about it for a second, she opened her mouth and replied, "Well, well, there are pastries, dried fruits, and some weird-tasting little snacks." They all told him not to buy it, he still bought it. ”

Qing Shu smiled and asked, "Do you like him?" ”

"When he doesn't make me angry, he's actually a good guy, and the slave likes him a lot."

Qing Shuxiao's eyes were bent, and it was too easy to set this girl's words, "Then do you want to be a lady for him?" ”

Xiaojuan, who realized it later, finally realized that something was wrong. After a pause, Huo Di turned his face and stared at Qing Shu with wide eyes, "Miss, what did you just say?" ”

Qing Shu still smiled, "I think the stone is very good to you, and you like the stone too." So, do you want to marry him and be his wife? ”

Xiao Juan did not blush, nor did she have any shy expression, but instead shook the rag and rushed to Qing Shu with a frightened face. She knelt at Qing Shu's feet, hugged Qing Shu's calf and cried, "Miss, Miss, slave and maid are obedient, don't be slaves." Hmm...... Where the slave and maid do not do well, the young lady's punishment is that she can't do without the slave and maid. Deal...... It's a big deal......" she sniffed, "It's a big deal that the slave will eat less food and less meat in the future, hmm...... Miss, you must not be a slave. ”

Qing Shu stared at the top of Xiao Juan's head with a black line on his face, feeling a flock of crows flying over the sky.

Xiaojuan is still trapped in the thought of "Miss wants to abandon me" and can't extricate herself, "slave maid...... No more, can't slaves and maids stop eating meat? Miss, the slave and the maid will quit meat in the future, the slave and the maid will not eat meat, the slave and the maid are very easy to feed, and they can't eat much food, so don't want a slave or maid. ”

Qing Shu is depressed, this girl really knows about eating meat, and she regards eating meat as the most important thing in her life. At this time, he not only misunderstood her, but also attributed the reason to eating meat, and even said that he wanted to quit meat! Really, that's it!

Xiaojuan didn't know that Qingshu was depressed, and she was still nagging her that if she didn't eat meat, the young lady would be able to save a few more silver dollars.

Qing Shu couldn't help it, and rewarded her head a few times on the spot, and scolded with tears and laughter, "Why did I get such a stupid girl as you?" ”

Xiaojuan hugged her head, raised her face, and looked at Qing Shu with tears in her eyes, "Miss, the slave is not a stupid maid." ”

Qing Shu was so angry that she raised her hand and wanted to reward Xiaojuan for a few violent tremors, but when she saw Xiaojuan looking at her with a pitiful face, her anger suddenly disappeared. In the end, he didn't give it, but he poked Xiaojuan's forehead with his finger angrily, "Why did I raise such a stupid girl like you?" Hatefully, I like it. ”

Xiaojuan only focuses on the key point, which is Qingshu's last sentence "I still like it". She wiped a handful of tears with her hand, and smirked at Qing Shu with her face raised, "It's great that Miss doesn't hate slaves." ”

Qing Shu really couldn't cry or laugh, and finally poked her head again, "Go and wash your face, it's ugly and dead." ”

Xiaojuan smirked and said Miss Xie, got up from the ground, and washed her face.

Qing Shu stroked his forehead helplessly and sighed. Look at the maids around her, either cowardly or stupid, and little girls who haven't grown. The five little girls who have just bought into the house, Su's mother, are being trained, and I don't know if they can be of great use in the future.

When it was time for breakfast, Qingshu went to the dining room. Chen Qiaojiang, Qingyang, Qinghao, and Luo Xiaorong have already arrived, and they are sitting in the positions they sit on weekdays. Immediately after, Mr. Lu also arrived. Qingshu likes to sit and eat together as a family, so Mr. Lu, who is not taken care of by Mrs. Lu, naturally becomes the one who eats with their sister and brother.

The maid is setting the meal.

Mr. Lu couldn't help but ask Qing Shu, "Don't you go to the front to see off the guests?" ”

Qingshu is serving yellow rice porridge to everyone. Hearing this, she replied, "One qiē is arranged by the housekeeper and Su's mother, and I don't have to come forward." ”

Mr. Lu listened and said, "You don't have any friendship with the Zhu Mansion, so it's understandable that you don't come forward." But Lord Xiao is different...... "He didn't continue halfway through his words.

Qing Shu put the eight-point full porridge bowl in his hand into Qingyang's hand and said, "Sir, Qing Shu knows in his heart that he will not do anything rude." ”

Mr. Lu nodded with a smile and stroked his beard, "You can do it in your heart, and Mr. won't talk much." ”

On the table, four kinds of small pickles, four kinds of stir-fried vegetables are arranged, as well as steamed buns and bean paste buns on the plate. Everyone's bowl was also filled with yellow rice porridge.

Mr. Lu took the chopsticks and said, "Eat." ”

Only then did everyone take chopsticks and silently eat breakfast in line with the rule of "food is silent".

For breakfast, Mr. Lu left with the four students, and Qing Shu went back to his room.

After a while, Xiao Huan, Xiao Yu and Xiao Ya came back, and they went to Qingshu House to talk back.

Xiao Huan pushed Aunt Jane's request to see her on the grounds that the young lady was busy and didn't have time to meet guests, and then easily coped with Aunt Jane's side knocks in a way that she cared about it, and finally sent Aunt Jian away with Mother Su.

The guests in the house walked cleanly. Escort Du personally led people to inspect the guest rooms, and after finding that there was no problem, he immediately redeployed the defense work in the palace. After the matter was settled, he went over to talk to Qing Shu and returned to his room.

Escort Luo was lying with his eyes closed, but he opened his eyes when he heard the movement, "Do you want to make a bet?" I bet that in less than three days, the other party will definitely take action. ”

Du Escort pressed the sword on the table, ignored it, and lay motionless on his back on the kang.

Guard Luo reached out from the quilt, grabbed one of the few oranges placed next to the pillow, and weighed it twice. Suddenly, he threw the orange in his hand into Guard's face.

Du Guard didn't even look at it, reached out and grabbed the orange that was thrown over, and said, "Bored." ”

Guard Luo buried his hand in the quilt, "Young Master Hao sent it here early in the morning." He thought I was asleep, so he crept in, put down the orange and left. "Lately he's been on night duty, so he's mostly sleeping during the day.

Du Huwei sat up calmly, peeled the orange and said, "Don't talk nonsense, sleep on your feet." ”

Guard Luo turned his back, "Sleep is naturally going to sleep." If you don't get enough sleep during the day, how can you have the energy to catch thieves at night! "He wants to see what kind of waves Aunt Jane can make.

The daytime in Fuchu is relatively peaceful. At ten o'clock in the evening, the beggars brought shocking news. Yesterday, the Zhu Mansion in the county town was silently looted by gangsters, killing five people, and the silver taels and valuable items in the treasury were basically emptied. Fortunately, Mrs. Zhu and Miss Zhu went to Xiao's Mansion during the day as guests, and Mrs. Xiao stayed in the mansion for one night, so they were spared. As for Zhu Zhisheng, the third young master of the Zhu family, he is nowhere to be found.

Qing Shu heard the news, and there was only one thought in his mind: Yiqiē was too coincidental, and all the coincidences came together.

At the time of the accident, Aunt Jane was not in the house. She ran from the county seat to Kangxi Town to find Master Zhu. What a coincidence! There is an alibi.

At the time of the accident, Mrs. Zhu and Miss Zhu were not in the house, which is another coincidence.

First, Zhu Zhiheng almost died, and a gangster ransacked Zhu's mansion in the middle, and then Zhu Zhisheng disappeared. What's next?

While Qing Shu was thinking about it, the beggar gang sent another message. The three suspects in the yamen prison in the county seat died, poisoned to death, around midnight this morning. Coincidentally, the three suspects are the three people related to Zhu Zhiheng's injury.

Guard Luo and Guard Du sat face to face and ate together.

Guard Luo asked, "What do you think of what happened in the Zhu Mansion one after another?" ”

Du Huwei made a wooden face, took a bite of the bun, and ate a fried fungus with chopsticks, and said in a voice without ups and downs, "I don't see it much." ”

Luo Guard's chopsticks stretched out towards the spicy cabbage, "This trick is good, there is such a big case in the county town, and everyone's attention and curiosity are thrown to the county seat." It's a pity that you and I have been on guard, and this trick is useless to us. ”

"How do you know it's a story? Maybe the other party's target is only Zhu Fu, and it is not known. ”

Guard Luo shook his head, "It's not that simple. My instinct told me that the other party was coming for Miss. What Zhu Fu did, I guess it's just by the way. I don't know what the origin of this Aunt Jane is? ”

"Whatever he came from? All the people in the bloodline of General Hài should die, come and slaughter one by one. Du Huwei's face was expressionless when he said this.

Guard Luo twitched the corners of his mouth, "Don't talk about it so bloody, okay?" ”

Du Huwei said, "You are bloodier than anyone else?" ”

Lo Guard: ......

In the next half month, the Zhufu case will cause a sensation throughout Dexian County. Whether it is in the county or in Kangxi Town, whether it is rich or ordinary people in the dark, they all close the door tightly and dare not go out.

That night, the stars were shining. Just after the hour, three black shadows climbed up on the wall of the Hou Mansion of Zhongfu.
