"Xiaomei, can you do Sister Jinxu a favor?" Lian Ruolan comforted Xiaomei not to cry, it didn't work, and Jinxu came over to pat her.

"No problem." As soon as she heard that she was going to help, Xiaomei immediately stopped crying.

Lian Ruolan looked at Jinxu and nodded, casting a look of "You still have a way".

"Xiaomei, can you draw the lady you saw that day and show it to your sister?" Jin Su asked.

"No problem." Xiaomei wiped her tears and nodded.

"Miss Jinxu, you really found the right person, Xiaomei's painting is great!" Lian Ruolan boasted.

Xiaomei smiled embarrassedly, blushing, very cute.

Jin Xu and Lian Ruolan hurriedly helped Xiaomei prepare tools, in order not to disturb her thoughts, neither of them spoke beside her.

"It's done." Xiaomei proudly held up the painting to show off her work.

Xiaomei is really good at drawing, and she is a gifted child. She can't say that her drawings are lifelike, but you can see that she is very meticulous, and even the hairstyle and accessories on her body are simply drawn. The woman in the painting is wearing very thick makeup, phoenix eyes, long eyebrows, and red lips are slightly open, which is exactly the appearance of the third lady.

Originally, Jinxu thought that it was really not good, she drew a portrait for Xiaomei with her three-legged cat's painting skills, and it might not be so smooth.

"Thank you, Xiaomei, for a great help!" Jin Xu was overjoyed, and hurriedly took out a pen and paper to deliver the news to Bai Qiuchi.

Inside the Hu Mansion.

Bai Qiuchi was still sad about what happened last night.

After removing the hood, he found that the woman had really taken the poison and was powerless. And she...... It's not the third lady Yan Lingsha.

Bai Qiuchi hurriedly called Xin'er to come over to identify and confirm that this maid was a second lady's subordinate Li'er. It's so strange that the second lady is also involved...... Regardless of whether it was instructed by the second lady or not, if Li'er didn't go back, it was estimated that the main messenger already knew that this time was unsuccessful, although there was no proof of death, but it would inevitably have some impact, and I don't know if I would come to get the jewelry box in the near future.

Bai Qiuchi asked Xin'er to notify Steward Mo to come over to deal with the aftermath, and wanted him to temporarily transport Li'er to the Ice Pavilion first, so as not to make a public announcement. When Steward Mo heard about it, he immediately ran over with two cronies.

When he saw Li'er's corpse, his expression was a little subtle, but he couldn't tell what was strange. Does Steward Mo know something?

After the little servant transported the girl away, Bai Qiuchi asked Steward Mo to stay.

"Steward Mo, when did Li'er follow the second lady?" Bai Qiuchi asked.

"Li'er has been following the second lady for two or three years. Before, she followed the third lady. Steward Mo replied.

"Why did Li'er transfer to the second lady's side?"

"Speaking of which, it's also to blame Li'er herself, she did something wrong, and accidentally broke a bracelet that the third lady liked very much, and the third lady was very angry and wanted to expel her from the Hu Mansion, but the second lady took her in with a kind heart."

"Steward Mo, what is the relationship between the second lady and the third lady?" Bai Qiuchi asked.

Actually, the two of them have nothing to do with each other. The ladies are also considerate of the master, and the three of them get along quite well. Especially the second lady has always kept to herself. ”

"Then, the third lady and the eldest young master ......"

"Alas, it was only rumored before, but I didn't expect it to be made public now, and the poor young lady is still unconscious......" Steward Mo said with a sigh.

"Was there anything unusual over there in the Ice Pavilion last night?"

"I sent additional people to patrol, and also specially arranged two people to guard, someone went to rotate, if there is an abnormality to see the situation, one person will stay behind, and one person will report me in time."

"Thank you for your hard work, Steward Mo, if you know anything, you must tell me." Bai Qiuchi said.

"No problem, Bai Dao Chief."

Here, Jin Su and Fanluo carried a jewelry box on their backs, said goodbye to Master Xu and Master Lian's two families and prepared to return to Hufu, Cen Li and Lian Ruolan went together as helpers and witnesses. After they planned to help, Cen Li would go back to Cen Jiazhuang's home in Molin County to have a look, and then go back to Jinghu City to find Master Xu after doing his filial piety; Lian Ruolan is going to go to Qicheng, first to worship her biological father Miao Jin, and then find clues to find her mother. Xu Hu also wanted to come and help, but he had to take care of Master Xu, so he could only send them out of the city and return.

When she was about to leave the city, Lian Ruolan couldn't help but turn her head and look at Xu Hu.

"Ruolan girl, if you have anything else to say, go and tell him quickly!" Jin Fu nudged her lightly and looked at her with encouraging eyes.

"Let's go!" Wei'er shook Lian Ruolan's hand, as if to give her strength.

"It's okay, we'll wait for you!" Fan Luo smiled brightly.

"Thank you." Lian Ruolan bowed slightly and ran towards Xu Hu.

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

"Brother Xu."

"Ruolan." It can be seen that Xu Hu is very sad and reluctant, but he has to let her go to find her biological mother.

"Brother Xu, I want to ask you, if you have time, help me go to see my father more." Lian Ruolan held back her tears and said.

"Don't worry, I'll take care of it." Xu Hu is very stable and reliable, and he will definitely try to do what he promised, but he still can't help but say, "I'm just worried about your ......"

"The self-defense wood made for me by Brother Xu is exquisite and practical, I will take care of it. You...... Take care of yourself too. Lian Ruolan wanted to leave quickly after speaking, for fear that the tears would flow uncontrollably.

"Letters." Xu Hu stretched out his hand to help Lian Ruolan straighten the wind-blown hair on her forehead, but she stopped again, not wanting to burden her.

"Hmm...... I will. After Lian Ruolan finished speaking, she quickly turned around.

She actually saw Xu Hu's outstretched hand, and at this moment, tears came out of her eyes.

"Don't wait for me." "I'll wait for you."

The two sentences were spoken at the same time, and then drifted away in the wind.

It is worth mentioning that the carriage they were riding in had the acceleration charm of Jinfu, and it was extremely fast, plus Fanluo was rushing outside, and the people in the car were tumbling in their stomachs, but fortunately, Jinxu distributed motion sickness medicine in time to ease up.

Jin Xu's letter was to the effect that the matter was settled, that the third lady had deceived the half-finished product that did not affect the dress, and that a group of five people needed to answer when they entered the door, and so on.

Knowing that Fanluo is back, Bai Qiuchi is still very happy. In the past two years, these two little oil bottles have actually helped him a lot, and they have continued to grow. The next thing to think about is, how to get the third lady to tell the truth? Maybe it's better to consult the eldest young master about this matter.

Facing Bai Qiuchi, who came uninvited, the eldest young master Hu Yanshi uncharacteristically did not find a reason to turn him away. When Bai Qiuchi came to his courtyard, no one obstructed him, but came to the door of his room smoothly.

"Young Master." The door was not closed, and Bai Qiuchi still politely called out outside the door first.

"Bai Dao Chief, please come in."

It seems that he has long known that Bai Qiuchi will come, Hu Yanshi only prepared a pot of wine, but two cups.

"You may be seated." Hu Yanshi didn't stand up to greet him, but just sat down and made a "please" gesture.

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

Bai Qiuchi had already asked Steward Mo in advance to secretly settle Cen Li and Lian Ruolan at that time, and invited them out when they needed to come out to testify, so everything went smoothly.

Bai Qiuchi, the three of them who had not rested, Jinxu and Fanluo set up an enchantment in his room and began to discuss what had happened recently. Bai Qiuchi had already carefully prepared the tea, and the intimate actions made the two of them deeply moved, and their reverence automatically rose to a higher level.

"It's so hard for you." Bai Qiuchi said sincerely.

"White Hero, you're welcome! I'm here, and we'll split up. Who are you and me? Hahaha! Fanluo waved his hands and laughed, and got a "chestnut" in the brocade.

"Big Brother Bai, ignore him. Let's get down to business. Jin Xu drank the water poured by Bai Qiuchi himself, and his mood was full of happiness.

Fanluo rolled his eyes on the side, this change in attitude is really faster than turning a book.

Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Bai Qiuchi hurriedly played a round: "You are all here, we can investigate separately and solve the problem quickly." ”

"I always feel that things here are not simple, I don't know what Big Brother Bai needs us to do?" Jin Su ignored the non-threatening white eyes, and was already cheering up and waiting for the new task arrangement.

"yes, arrange for me!" Fanluo can show his skills when he hears it, and he also looks like he has been beaten with chicken blood.

"There have been so many things happening in the past few days, and I'm a little confused." Bai Qiuchi said a little ashamedly, "And after meeting the eldest young master just now, there are a lot of things that need to be re-analyzed. ”

"Brother Bai, you speak slowly," Jin Xu thoughtfully took out a paper and pen, "You comb it while telling me." ”

"Thank you." Bai Qiuchi thanked him.

Jin Xu Yan is good at ink, and handed the pen to Bai Qiuchi.

"Bai Daxia, you start from the beginning, I will also listen to it, analyze and analyze." Fanluo hurriedly moved the stool to the side of the brocade and picked up a pen as well.

"What are you doing?" Jin Xu looked disgusted.

"At the critical moment, don't interrupt, you are so stupid, in case you miss it, I will help you replenish it!"

"Whatever you want!" In order not to waste time, Jin Su reluctantly agreed.

"Jinxu, you are a warlock, you should also think that the layout of the Hu family is very strange when you enter the door, right?"

"That's right, the layout here doesn't fit the normal feng shui of the home. In particular, the big lotus pond that enters the door is very weird. It's this season, the lotus flower is still undefeated, and the color is also very strange. "It's blood-red." ”

"This lotus flower seems to have been white before, Master Hu said vaguely unintentionally." Bai Qiuchi said.

Fanluo was desperately recording on the side, for fear of missing something.

"There have been four murders, the first two of which happened by the lotus pond, the old lady and her black cat. Let's not talk about this for the time being, let's talk about this lotus pond first, I have seen a blue flame fly over and fall straight into the lake, there is no splash, and there are no raindrops on the surface of the lake. I've gone down to explore, and after entering the water, the two things are the strangest, one is that the lotus flower has no roots, and the other is that there is an enchantment at the bottom of the lake, and from a distance, it seems that there are houses in the enchantment. But ......"

"There is an enchantment at the bottom of the lake, Brother Bai, have you seen the structure of the house clearly?" Jin Su asked.

"But what?" The attention of Fanluo is different, and it ushers in a sharp look of brocade.

"I'm ashamed to say that I wanted to rush into the enchantment, but I was bounced out, and I didn't have time to see it clearly."

"Where's the crystal I gave you? Do you have a reaction when you use it near the lotus pond? ”

"It's turned blood-red, and there's a lot of demonic energy inside."

"That's right, there are demons in the lake, and it is estimated that the road is not shallow. So let's just deal with this youkai, shall we? Jin Su asked.

"It's not that simple. I've always thought this family was weird, and a lot of the things I haven't talked about don't look like demons did. Bai Qiuchi shook his head and said.

"The relationship between people in the house is complicated?" Fanluo was a little excited when he heard it, "I like to listen to these parents the most." ”

"No wonder it's such a mother-in-law." Jin Xu looked at Fanluo with disdain.
