Chapter 51: Track down the real culprit
“…… According to the slave maid, this Su Niang absconded in fear of crime, most of which was poisoned by her. ”
Qingxi said angrily.
"This matter is really strange, Nian'er, think about it carefully, who have you made enemies with recently?"
Xiao Yin also listened to what Qingxi said, he came in a hurry, and he didn't have a chance to inquire about the reason for this matter in detail.
Now that Ran Qiunian is out of danger, he should go all out to chase down the poisonous woman who dared to attack Ran Qiunian.
"Feud? Nian'er has become more and more self-cultivation recently, she either follows Xiugu to practice archery on weekdays, or accompanies her in front of her grandmother, she hasn't been to the small kitchen a few times, who can she make enemies with? ”
Ran Qiunian is a little big, since she arrived at the summer resort, she has been back and forth to such a few places, not to mention conflicts with people, and even reprimanding people has not happened.
If it is said that before she was reborn, she was domineering in the house and threw the whip if she disagreed, and there were more people who could make enemies, why did she have an accident at this time?
Qingxi listened on the side, and nodded again and again, her young lady's temperament is getting better and better, she follows every day, and she has the most profound experience, and she has never seen her own young lady and anyone blushing.
Seeing that the master and servant both looked like they were in trouble, Xiao Yin also knew that he couldn't ask any clues, he looked at Ran Qiunian with a little amusement, and gave up asking for clues from her.
"You go back and drink the medicine first, eat something, and we'll go to the kitchen in a while."
Xiao Yin thought about it for a while and decided to check it out for himself to see if there was anything else he hadn't found.
Ran Qiunian nodded, she came to see Xiao Yin just now, but she didn't realize the hunger in her belly, she hadn't eaten much for two days, and after reacting, her stomach suddenly growled with hunger.
"Then I'll go eat something first, big brother must remember to take Nian'er to investigate this case together, and if you say it, you can't regret it!"
Ran Qiunian left Xiao Yin's house step by step, and returned to his house with Qingxi armed again.
After entering the house, as soon as I took off the thick clothes on my body, I saw a mermaid with a medicine bowl and porridge and side dishes outside the door.
looked at Ran Qiunian, who had escaped death, and his eyes were red: "My Nian'er, you can be regarded as getting better, you have worried your grandmother to death in the past two days, come over and let your grandmother take a look." ”
Ran Qiunian snuggled obediently, and the grandparents sat down at the table: "Grandmother is worried, it's Nian'er who is unfilial." ”
"Silly boy, how can I blame you, it's that black-hearted poisonous woman who wants to harm you, don't worry, grandmother will help you find out the person who harmed you and make her pay."
Grandmother was angry when she talked about this, but she hated that she was so incapable these days that she didn't care about sending someone to search for the poisonous woman who poisoned Ran Qiunian.
"Grandmother is angry, leave this matter to Nian'er and the eldest brother. You've been tired for the past two days, so we'll leave this little thing to handle to make sure we get the poisoned bad guy back. ”
Ran Qiunian looked at the tired look on her grandmother's face, she was also very distressed, in order to find an antidote for herself, no one had a good rest these days, her grandmother was old, Ran Qiunian was really afraid that her body would not be able to survive.
"Nian'er will feel distressed. Grandmother is not tired, your eldest brother is also rare, willing to spare his life for you, this time thanks to him, have you ever been to see your eldest brother? ”
Grandmother touched Ran Qiunian's hair, added a bowl of porridge to her, and told her to drink it slowly.
"I've already gone to see it, grandmother, don't worry about it, and after breakfast in a while, I'll go to my eldest brother to discuss this matter."
Ran Qiunian took a sip of white porridge, swallowed it, and smiled at her grandmother.
Grandmother saw that Ran Qiunian was in good spirits, and thought that she was recovering well, so she simply responded to her and let her toss herself, so that she could vent her anger.
Ran Qiunian put down the dishes and chopsticks and was about to run out, but was quickly grabbed by her grandmother: "Grandmother, didn't you promise to let Nian'er investigate the person who poisoned herself, is it possible that you regret it again?" ”
Ran Qiunian smiled, grabbed her grandmother's shoulder with her backhand, and sprinkled coquettishly.
"Take the medicine, drink the medicine and go again."
Grandmother nodded Ran Qiunian's nose and asked Qingxi to bring the medicine bowl, the hot medicinal juice was put here for a while, it had already warmed up, and it was just right to drink.
But Ran Qiunian's eyes were a little straight when she looked at the bowl of black medicine, and seeing that Ran Qiunian was about to retreat again, her grandmother hurriedly said a few words.
"Don't waste it, how much effort did your eldest brother take to find the medicine guide for you, Ginkgo biloba, Qingxi and they are afraid that someone will poison you again, and the things in the entrance are all handled by yourself, and they have been staring at them for several hours. If you don't drink it, you'll be in vain. ”
Grandmother's words made Ran Qiunian almost stop the excuse on her lips, she laughed dryly, and couldn't say anything more without drinking medicine.
Seeing that Ran Qiunian's attitude softened, Qingxi hurriedly handed over the medicine bowl: "Miss, drink it quickly, it will be cold if you put it again." ”
Ran Qiunian obediently took the medicine bowl, took a sip, and her face was wrinkled by the bitterness, but she didn't drink it as usual, nor did she complain about the bitterness of the medicine, and drank the rest of the medicine in one go, without wasting a drop.
Seeing that Ran Qiunian obediently drank the medicine, her grandmother let people out.
Because Ran Qiunian wanted to go to the small kitchen to check with Xiao Yin to see what clues there were, Qingxi didn't give people a tight three-layer package like before.
Instead, he changed into a pale green tulle overall, and covered his head with a hat, barely able to block a little of the sun and the sassy wind passing through the hall.
Xiao Yin had already gotten up, and after freshening up and changing clothes, he simply had breakfast before someone took down the meal, and Ran Qiunian walked in from outside the door like a gust of wind.
"Big brother, Nian'er is ready, let's go to the small kitchen now."
Ran Qiunian pulled Xiao Yin's arm and couldn't wait to go outside, Xiao Yin didn't struggle when he saw this, he followed Ran Qiunian's strength and walked out, and the two soon walked to the small kitchen that had been idle.
"I heard that after that day, my grandmother sealed the small kitchen directly, and all the utensils were arranged on the day of my poisoning, and no one touched it in the slightest."
As Ran Qiunian walked, he told Xiao Yin all the news he had heard.
Xiao Yin listened with his eyes down, and he also knew in his heart.
The subordinates who were guarding outside the small kitchen recognized the identities of Ran Qiunian and Xiao Yin, and did not stop them, and directly let the two in.
After Ran Qiunian and Xiao Yin walked into the small kitchen, they saw the depression of the cold pot and cold stove in the back kitchen, with half-cut meat and vegetables on the board, and a small hill of leftovers piled up in the corner, which had not yet had time to be pulled to the back mountain for landfill.
No one cared about it for two days, and now that the weather is hot, a lot of meat and vegetables have gone bad.
Because without the old lady's instructions, no one dared to touch the things in the small kitchen casually, and the pile of waste in the corner that was originally intended to be pulled to the back mountain and discarded even attracted a lot of bugs.
The buzzing sound made Ran Qiunian couldn't help but take a step back, Xiao Yin saw this, stepped forward to block Ran Qiunian behind him, and said to her, "You wait for me outside." ”
"No, I'm going to watch it with my big brother."
Ran Qiunian forced himself not to look at the pile of waste flying insects and flies in the corner, and began to rummage through the stove.
Seeing this, Xiao Yin didn't insist any longer, but took the initiative to take a look at the pile of vegetable leaves that were a little dirty.
Ran Qiunian was turning her back to Xiao Yin to rummage through the spices left by the stove, she sniffed them one by one, and she could almost smell all the ingredients in the spices.
She sighed and put down the jar of spices in her hand: "The red umbrella is colorless and odorless after boiling into juice, even if I have the ability to smell a hundred herbs, it is useless." ”
Xiao Yin didn't answer, Ran Qiunian didn't care, she finished speaking, and continued to rummage, her eyes swept over the edge of the fireplace used to make a fire below, and under a stove in the corner, she saw a green corner.
"Hey, what's that?"
Ran Qiunian walked over, squatted down and dragged the green object that attracted her attention from under the pyre. Almost at the same time, Xiao Yin on the other side also found something special.
"Nian'er?"
Xiao Yin took out the shabby pottery urn in the corner that was covered by vegetable leaves, and turned to look for Ran Qiunian's figure, but found that the small kitchen was empty.
"Big brother, I'm here!"
Ran Qiunian heard Xiao Yin's voice, and hurriedly stood up from behind the stove in the corner, revealing his face, I don't know when he was wiped by the ash on the stove, a small face was dusty, but his eyes were bright and cute.
Xiao Yin's gaze stopped for a moment on Ran Qiunian's gray little face, and he didn't say anything. Ran Qiunian noticed the pottery urn he was holding in his hand, his eyes lit up, and he knew that Xiao Yin had found some useful clues, so he hurried to his side and looked at the pottery urn carefully.
Seeing this, Xiao Yin directly put the pottery urn in his hand on the clean stove, but heard Ran Qiunian say strangely:
"Big brother, this pottery looks intact and has a new texture, it should be a new appliance in the small kitchen, right? But it was thrown directly into the scrap heap. There must be quirks! is still as careful as a big brother, and even this can be found. ”
Ran Qiunian touted Xiao Yin for a while, Xiao Yin ignored this girl's character of playing treasure, and pointed to the layer of insect corpses spread in the pottery urn.
"There are a lot of insects in the vegetable pile, but there are insect corpses near the pottery urn. Sure enough, the same is true in Tao Weng, there is not a single living bug. ”
Ran Qiunian glanced at the insects floating in the pottery urn with some disgust, although he knew that this thing was dead and couldn't fly, he still couldn't help but hide behind Xiao Yin.
"What the big brother means is that this is the pottery urn used to boil the poisonous juice of the red umbrella, and there should be the remaining poisonous juice in it, let's take it to Dr. Chang quickly."
Xiao Yin nodded, but he remembered that Ran Qiunian didn't know what he saw behind the stove in the corner before, so he asked casually.
"What about Nian'er, what did you find?"
