Chapter 16 Look at the clues

"So you can't act recklessly next time, this time you can save the day, but next time it may not be."

Cheng Xin nodded: "Don't worry, eat a trench and grow wise, I won't mess around again." But I think there's a bug in your system. ”

"What bug?"

"This plot is updated so untimely, how can you blame me for changing the plot? I did it all in advance, is it possible to predict the development of the plot first? ”

"This is natural. As a crossing girl, this is a skill you should have! ”

"Pull it down!"

Xiaoshu smiled: "Don't worry, no one understands the plot better than me." Discuss with me before you do anything in the future, and I will give you advice to ensure that you will not be punished by the plot again. ”

Cheng Xinhehe, she seriously expressed her doubts.

……

Cheng Xin, who had finished taking a bath, sat honestly in front of the dresser.

Minqi gently wiped her wet hair with a handkerchief, while Mei Ran helped her with medicine.

"How's Qiao's wife?" Cheng Xin asked.

Min Qi said: "I've seen the doctor, I just said that I sprained my foot, and I can rest for a few days." ”

"Then let her rest in the room for the next few days, and don't move around."

"Thank you for your kindness." Min Qi helped her wipe her hair, took out something from her sleeve and handed it over: "Miss, this is something that Qiao's wife picked up in the carriage, and I don't see something that is not Miss." ”

Handed to him was a moire silver hairpin.

Cheng Xin glanced at the dresser, the hairpin ornaments in her jewelry box were extremely exquisite, both in shape and craftsmanship. Even if she is not familiar with what accessories she has, she knows that this extremely simple hairpin in her hand is definitely not hers.

"Isn't it yours?"

"It's not. Qiao Wu said that this hollow hairpin is not worth a few dollars, but it was picked up in the carriage and let me bring it to the young lady to see. ”

Cheng Xin took over the trick, the hairpin is very light, the craftsmanship is rough, and it is very cheap.

"Go back and ask Yu Bo."

The carriage in the palace has always been managed by Yu Bo, who has sat in the carriage, or who may have access to the carriage, he thinks best.

At this time, Hazelnut's voice came from outside: "Miss, the little grandfather asked you to go to the front hall." ”

"What's going on?"

"I don't know. Qingcha said that Miss should take us with us, and we must all go back. ”

……

When Cheng Xin came to the front hall with a group of maids, Qin Shu was holding a fan, thoughtful.

"Little grandpa, are you looking for me?" Cheng Xin interrupted his thoughts.

Qin Shu put away the fan, and when he raised his eyes, he saw Cheng Xin dressed in light clothes and wearing black hair. The ends of my hair were slightly wet and curly, and I had just bathed them.

This is the first time he has seen Cheng Xin like this, taking off his makeup and not applying powder.

Qin Shu retracted his gaze and frowned: "Why did you come out like this?" ”

"The little grandfather forgives his sins, it's all the slaves and maids who don't serve him well." Minqi and the others all knelt down.

Cheng Xin said: "I thought you were looking for me in a hurry, and I couldn't take care of it too much." I'll pay attention next time. Get up, Chess. ”

Min Qi hesitated, and then heard Cheng Xin say: "It's not your fault, you don't have to kneel." ”

"So, was it my fault?"

"Don't dare, don't dare." Cheng Xin smiled: "It's my fault." shouldn't have heard the summons of the little grandfather and rushed over. I should have dressed up, put on my makeup carefully, rubbed it on with powder, lifted the hem of my skirt, and came in small steps. ”

"Poof......" Qingcha behind Qin Shu couldn't help but laugh snickering.

Qin Shu glanced back and successfully made Qingcha cover his mouth.

Cheng Xin smiled lightly, this little grandfather is a noble son, he has his self-cultivation, and he will not be angry because of her casual words.

Sure enough, I listened to the little grandfather say, "You all get up." ”

"Thank you, little grandfather." Only then did Min Qi and the others get up.

Qin Shu motioned for Cheng Xin to sit down, and Cheng Xin was as good as a stream, and sat down opposite him.

"I heard you're in distress on the street."

"yes. People sit in the chariot, and disaster comes from heaven. But fortunately, there are no dangers. ”

"Are there any injuries?"

"A little skin trauma, it's fine. Thank you for your concern. Cheng Xin gave him a big smile.

Qin Shu looked away: "I don't care about you." I was afraid that my mother would be worried. ”

"Mmmm, thank you mother for your concern."

Hearing the word 'mother', Qin Shu was suddenly stunned. When Cheng Xin saw him in the past, he was stubborn in his alienation, so stubborn that he never said anything about calling them.

But right now, Cheng Xin talks to him more casually. The stubbornness in his eyes was gone, but he was more alienated than before, as if he was really just a stranger in front of him.

"Let's pass the meal." Qin Shu said lightly.

"Yes!" Qingcha hurriedly went down and ordered.

Cheng Xin thought for a while and asked, "I heard that a noble person was assassinated today, does the little grandfather know who it is?" ”

"What are you asking for?"

"Anyway, it's because this noble man met the assassin."

"Really?"

"yes."

Cheng Xinyuan just asked casually, and didn't expect a little grandfather who lives at home every day to know the inside story.

I didn't want the little grandfather to just look at her strangely, so he said, "The prince is today." ”

"What?" Cheng Xin sat up straight all of a sudden: "It's the prince!" ”

I'm afraid this is not for Xiaoshu, this is the plot development of the male protagonist?

"Is the prince injured? And did the assassin catch it? ”

Qin Shu saw Cheng Xin's reaction, combined with the previous things, and his heart was clear.

"The prince is protected by secret guards, and it is not something that ordinary Xiaoxiao can succeed. As for the assassin, he was already in the prison of the Criminal Department. ”

"Caught so quickly!"

"What, you're surprised?"

"yes." Cheng Xin nodded: "I've seen that assassin's skills, I thought he could escape." ”

"It's a soft tendon."

"No wonder." The Assassin was so good that she thought she could get away with it.

At this time, a maid walked by with a plate of pork ribs crisp in front of him, and Cheng Xin immediately chased the fragrance to the table and sat down.

"Little grandpa, I'm hungry, why don't we finish eating first."

While eating, she said that she didn't dare to think about it, these people are very well-behaved when eating.

The dishes were quickly placed on the table, Cheng Xin looked at the dishes, and then looked at the little grandfather.

Eye-catching.

Is it a pretentious gesture, afraid that he will detect the clues?

Still is......

Qin Shu's gaze fell on the plate of pork ribs that looked golden and crispy, and he got up and sat down.

Qingcha behind him served him a bowl of soup first, as usual.

Cheng Xin saw that the little grandfather was moving, and waved his hand to Minqi and the others behind him: "You don't need to serve here, you can also go eat." ”

Minqi and the others dispersed.

The hall was silent, except for the sound of the crockery.

After coming here for so many days, Cheng Xin is most satisfied with the dishes of Anguo Mansion, each of which is very suitable for her taste, the color and luster are just right, light and delicious. I don't know how many times better it tastes than she made herself.

When she was fighting with the plate of pork ribs, Qin Shu had already put down her chopsticks.

Qingcha handed him a handkerchief.

"Is it delicious?" Qin Shu spoke.

Cheng Xin raised his head from the bowl, bit the ribs and nodded.

"But I remember you said to the kitchen that the most annoying thing is pork rib crisp."
